Chapter 3: History
What type of books to start with?
"If you can, please find me some books on history and geography. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" After a moment's thought, Abner voiced his opinion.
Reading history makes people wise, reading poetry makes people wise, calculus makes people precise, philosophy makes people profound, morality makes people noble, and logical rhetoric makes people good at argumentation. Even in the Otherworld, Mr. Francis Bacon's words apply. Moreover, history books contain a wealth of information - literature, politics, art, military, religion...... After all, the development of history is made up of these things.
Moreover, 'all history is contemporary,' and since Miss Catlyn and her friends have determined to cultivate themselves, under their guidance they must be able to read part of the truth in history, understand the laws of social development and progress contained in it, and find a place for themselves in this world. At the same time, it can also further understand the current situation in the world and lay a certain foundation for future guidance.
As for geography...... Well, there is no separation between politics and history. The changes of history often lead to the change of geographical terms, and if there is no cooperation of geography books, there are often many fallacies in the understanding of history.
"Books on history and geography?" Ann repeated softly, then looked at Abner, "Are there any more specific requests?"
"Well......" Abner replied after a moment's thought, "if you may, Miss An, I hope you will first give me some broad, outline----historically, preferably one that covers the history of the entire continent from the birth of mankind to the present era." In terms of geography, I hope that books will mainly introduce the current countries, peoples, and other conditions on the continent. ”
“...... You said...... Human origins?"
As if she didn't hear clearly, and as if she was frightened by his words, Ann blinked and asked with some hesitation.
“...... Is there any problem with this? Miss Ann?"
"There is a big problem. Taking a sip of tea, An said demurely, "Because although there are many explorations about the 'origin of mankind', no individual or organization can truly find the origin of mankind - neither the two empires that have been established for nearly a thousand years, nor the magic associations that have a longer tradition. Of course, the Goddess of Light taught that the goddess created the world and created man does not count.
And the books Kyle and Catherine have collected are only about 30,000 years ago, when humans were vassal groups of other major races, and there are still quite a few fragments - if it is any longer, there is no way. ”
"......," Abner .jpg dumbfounded
"It's 30,000 years ......," Jane gasped.
"......," Paris bewildered.jpg
Cyril and Talia looked completely unstruck.
"Please let me put my brain in order, Miss Ann. ”
With a hard pinch on his thigh, Abner swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said to Jane.
The amount of information in her words was too much, and if she didn't clear her thoughts properly, there would be no way to continue the rest of the conversation!
"No problem. Ann smiled and waved her hand.
Well, think about it.
First, the human race has existed in this world for at least 30,000 years - and in recorded history.
However, it has existed for 30,000 years, and it is still the bird-like appearance of this medieval king's vassal...... Compared with the blue star in the previous life, which only had a history of thousands of years and entered the era of capitalism and even socialism, it is simply weak!
And the theory woven by the Holy See that the goddess of light created the world 100,000 years ago and created man 10,000 years ago is basically the same as the legend of a certain cruciform god in Abner's previous life - except for the length of time and the gender and name of the person, there is almost no difference. Of course, in this world, in addition to humans, the races created by a certain goddess are said to include elves, orcs, dwarves, and giants...... and other races - though it is said that with the exception of humans, the other races are either half-finished products that the goddess used to practice her hands - such as elves and various orcs, or evil races that have rebelled against the goddess and fallen into darkness - such as vampires and devils.
The only race in this world that is not part of the creation of the goddess is the demon born of the Endless Abyss.
For these, Abner, who has received the education of the successor of communism, naturally listens to a story - an earth has to develop and form in billions of years, and how can a goddess be able to create a world comparable to the earth in dozens of days?
Moreover, Ann also said that the history of human beings in this world is at least 30,000 years, and the goddess began to create man 10,000 years ago.
But......
"Excuse me, Mr. Kyle and Miss Catherine...... How did you get this information?"
Even if those two geniuses had been acting separately since they were ten years old, there were only two of them, and with just a dozen years of time, they wanted to investigate to such an extent...... Well, if there are no special circumstances, cross it.
Apparently, Paris and Jane have similar questions, so they also set their sights on Ann.
"This ...... It's easy for them. ”
Hearing the question he asked after thinking for a long time, An smiled, and there was a hint of approval in his eyes, "As long as you summon a few demons that have been alive for a long time, and then catch them, and use psychic spells on them, you can learn the information they have." ”
“...... He is worthy of being a famous genius of the kingdom!"
Tugging at the muscles in his face, Abner barely managed to make a smiling face.
It's good and powerful.
That's all Abner can say.
Compared to mortals like themselves, who are still stupidly wary of the devil, these two geniuses have begun to use the devil to facilitate their own lives - between the two, it is simply the difference between the primitive tribes who depend on the sky for food and the communism that is distributed according to need!
It seems that these two geniuses have made hell, or the devil, their omnipotent tool -- if they have no materials, they will catch a devil as materials, if they don't know something, they will catch a devil and search for its memories; if they are in a bad mood, they may catch a devil and beat them up; and if they are in a good mood, they may even catch a devil to promote justice...... Anyway, the devil is not a human being, and he has no human rights.
I don't know why, in Abner's mind, this scene suddenly appeared:
In the dark and gloomy hell, two handsome and beautiful figures, a man and a woman, walked and talked as if no one was walking around.
And in front of them, in the dust, countless big devils, middle devils, and little devils with sharp horns on their heads, bat wings on their backs, and a tail on their buttocks, were all full of terror, and shouted while wolves rushed and trampled on each other:
"Run, those two humans are here again!"
