Chapter Seventy-Nine: Heaven and Earth Are Unkind
After the Great Flood, human beings devoted themselves to cultivation, starting from their own hearts to explore the mysteries of heaven and earth, and using their own circulation as a system to create a special magical cultivation method for human beings. www.biquge.info In this way, human beings practice magic and multiply while practicing magic.
The gods of the time destroyed most of the human race, but did not reduce their lifespan, and the human race was small but began to flourish again. Twenty thousand years later, humans were the most abundant species on the continent.
Time takes away everything, including memories.
It took 20,000 years to restore humanity's nightmare of the Great Flood and revive the demons that were deeply pressed in their hearts. Profit drove humanity to the path of war again. At this time, the gods were no longer in the world, and the largest human nation at that time fought everywhere, driving other species on the continent to the depths of the continent, and humans occupied the richest hinterland of the continent from then on.
The good times didn't last long, and the king of the human empire was a tyrant at that time, not only fighting against other races, but also bullying his own people all the time. At that time, human beings established a very strict hierarchy, and the nobles could even slaughter their own slaves at will, and demons occupied the hearts of the vast majority of people.
Eventually, the slaves revolted, and a very powerful noble army of them began to openly oppose the tyranny of the king. War raged on the continent, and after years of conquest, a coalition of human heroes finally defeated the king and re-established an even grander empire.
At that time, the strength of human heroes even surpassed that of ordinary gods. By the time the gods reacted, there was nothing they could do with humans. Human beings even used the attack on the heavenly realm as a bargaining chip to ask the creator god to canonize human beings as gods. In the end, the creator god himself came forward and canonized 365 human heroes as gods of the divine realm. Among them are the three new main gods.
What all human beings didn't expect was that after the canonization, these three main gods actually turned against each other and proposed to the creation god to seal the human race.
Hearing this, everyone gasped. This is something they never expected.
The dark mage seemed to enjoy their expressions, and then continued to tear the wound wider: "The one who made the suggestion at that time was the god of light that the Holy Curia believed in!"
The god of light suggested that the creator god should first seal the lifespan of humans. Three hundred years is too long for a super-fast human being, who can give birth to the next generation at the age of sixteen and enter the prime of life at the age of twenty. At that time, human beings were not considered old until they were over two hundred years old, and for a full hundred and eighty years, if humans were willing, a couple could have more than a hundred children, which was a nightmare for other races.
Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. If a hundred people can give birth to a magician, then ten thousand people will have a hundred magicians, and the creator god certainly understands this simplest formula. At that time, the twelve gods and the creator god almost unanimously approved this proposal, and the medicine developed by the god of wind and the god of light that only worked on humans was quietly spread in the air. Humans over the age of 100 begin to suffer from strange diseases, first losing their fertility and then rapidly aging and dying in just a few months. What's even more frightening is that drugs have evolved naturally to mutate. Some people in the human race find themselves no longer immune to the virus, and this is not uncommon in humans.
The best of humanity took refuge in the gods, but that doesn't mean there aren't wise men among them. More than a dozen refusals saw the gods' tricks, but it was too late, more than ten years had passed since the wind god spread the poison to the time they discovered the problem, and the colorless and odorless poison had already drifted with the wind all over the continent.
In desperation, the wise men went to the three canonized human gods for help. It's a pity that they still have great trust in the three main gods who are also human beings, and when they first stepped into the temple of the god of light, they were subdued by the angels who were lying in ambush beside them. They had no idea that their former friend would betray them. In the end, one hundred and eight great wise men of mankind died on the so-called purest sacred mountain.
Humanity that has lost its wisdom has nothing to do, and gathers all its soldiers to storm the divine realm. It's a pity that those human beings are no longer the original powerhouses, and the sick human beings are no match for the heavenly army at all. After several battles, the human race was defeated one after another, and in the end, the human race was no longer able to compete with the divine realm, so it had to sign an agreement with the divine realm. The Divine Realm no longer exterminated all human beings, and human beings are no longer allowed to set foot in the Divine Realm for half a step.
"Ridiculous! The god of light cares about the common people and saves people from fire and water, how can he be such a treacherous villain as you say. Cosimo scolded.
But the dark mage was dismissive: "Hmph, first spread all kinds of plagues, and then jump out to save the common people when they are almost dead, do you think this is mercy? He is just to make you stupid people believe in him." The gods are ranked in the divine realm by the number of believers, and you are just a pawn in his hands. ”
Cosimo just wanted to refute, but Tom, who had been silent, spoke: "Since Your Excellency wants to ask the Divine Realm for an explanation, why don't you directly consult with the leaders of various countries?
The dark mage replied unhurriedly: "Your Excellency is called a magus in vain, but you don't know that the country of the sun is a vassal state of the ancient kingdom of the East, and those who can compete with the gods, if it weren't for them who have not been cursed by the gods, could it be that you can't do it?"
"Ridiculous, since Your Excellency keeps saying that the Ancient Kingdom of the East is a country of orthodox human inheritance, why don't you just look for the Ancient Kingdom of the East?
The dark mage said lightly: "Hmph, those old antiques are too pedantic, saying that they can't bear to suffer and don't want to participate in this matter, I think they are just cowardly." ”
At this time, Cosimo also spoke: "No, I think the decision of the ancient country of the East is correct. Not to mention that we can't compete with the gods at all, and even if we could, should we take these three hundred years of life at the cost of the lives of millions of people? You may think it's worth it, but for me, I don't want to trade other people's lives for life. ”
"That's good!" Tom clapped his hands, and then continued: "Your Excellency wants to start a war against the Divine Realm, why do you want to attack my Celestial Continent? I think you're just trying to satisfy your own selfish desires!"
The dark mage who was reprimanded by the two of them was suddenly furious, and the dark magic elves in his hands immediately gathered: "Hmph, Xia Worm can't talk about ice, I kindly persuaded you but killed yourself!"
"Be careful! he's a sorcerer!" Donna looked horrified.
