Chapter 2: The Death of Man
man, destroying himself.
Luo Qi saw everything from the observer.
He saw that after entering the fortieth millennium of the city-state era, mankind had developed a space civilization and finally buried itself under the weapons they had made.
It was a cataclysmic war, with massive warships fighting in the astral arena.
Endless energy poured over the continent, lifting up pieces of continental plates.
Countless people went forward and killed each other.
Bright red blood stained the land and the sky.
And all this is just because of the words he left behind.
"I hope you're ready."
The observer is the most loyal chronicler of history, and Luo Qi sees from it everything he wants to see.
The "human" kind, from the moment it has wisdom, calls itself human.
Scholars of humanity do not know where this name comes from, but it seems to be instinctively imprinted in the human race.
Gaia - This is the world name for human beings for their own existence.
This is an incomparably vast world, and even humans who have entered the interstellar age have not yet been able to fully explore the planet Gaia.
Humanity has made its birthplace the Middle Continent, a prosperous and vast land.
In the middle of the Middle Continent, a large cross-shaped crack divides the continent into four pieces, and humans have called it the Giant God Mountain Range because of its steepness and strangeness.
Humans believe that gods and spirits were inhabited here countless years ago.
Even the best geologists of mankind have been unable to explain why this strange landscape has formed.
"Billions of years ago, there was an unprecedented earthquake. The earthquake set off a tsunami of tens of thousands of meters, splitting the Central Continent into four pieces. That's how scholars interpret it.
When the humans on the continent marched from the age of the city-states to the sea, they started the age of sailing.
Countless island continents have been discovered, and human civilization has advanced at a rapid pace in this wave.
In the course of their voyage, they discovered a strange power that humans called the Magician.
It's an incredible power that can do everything humans want to do, whether it's flying into the sky or into the sea.
"We have reason to believe that the most brilliant moment of human civilization is coming!" The television was filled with the leader's rousing speech.
The use of magic by humans is rapidly becoming widespread in society.
The fields no longer require hard work, they only need to be infused with magic essences, and the puppets can do everything.
Transportation is no longer a necessity in society, and humans are more inclined to use portals to get around.
Hunger has been eradicated from human society, and even the poorest people have access to food to feed themselves.
Humans explore the land, and they challenge countless creatures of immense power.
The power of magic has penetrated into every corner of human life.
Seeing this, Luo Qi couldn't help but be curious about the power of the magic element. What exactly is the transcendent power similar to magic, this intrigued him.
The final result made Luo Qi a little disappointed, and he found that the so-called magic essence was just a superfluous thing that he spit out between his breaths.
Just as human breath exhales carbon dioxide, the magic element is the equivalent of this gas.
Yes, Luo Qi, who has become an astral body, is also breathing all the time.
He absorbs the energy of the golden star, the sun. Spits out excess debris from the star's body, as well as some collateral.
Compared with when he was first born, today's Luo Qi has swelled hundreds of times.
Although Luo Qi was very curious about whether the planets would grow slowly, he thought that no planet would have a consciousness like him, so he gave up studying this issue deeply.
After figuring out the essence of the magic element, Luo Qi continued to watch the development of human civilization.
Perhaps it is because the magic element is too magical, and the human race has developed a worship and belief in the magic element.
Some people say that the magic element is a gift from the gods to human beings, and only by sincerely believing in the gods can human beings not lose themselves in the magic element.
Humans refer to the god who controls the magic essence as Odell, which means "the mother of the origin of life." ”
In human mythology, Odell resides in the Mountains of the Giants, a loving mother goddess.
Odell created the earth and the sky to spread life to every corner of the world. It is because of the blessing of this loving Mother Goddess that humanity can prosper.
It is precisely because of the spread of the Sect of the Mother God of Life that other gods have appeared in human society one after another.
From the observer's records, Luo Qi discovered that the gods and spirits in these human myths and stories did indeed exist.
The birth of these gods is inseparable from the faith of human beings.
They are the product of the collective consciousness of mankind and the vibration of the magic element, and they are special beings who respond to human beliefs.
These gods are incomparably more powerful than humans, because they are the product of consciousness and magic, so they can use magic as they please.
But the gods were born from the faith of mankind and will also be trapped by the faith of mankind.
After mankind entered the information age, religion quickly lost the soil on which it depended.
The cries of human supremacy are raised, they call the gods nothing but a religious hoax, and no one has ever seen the gods!
"We conquered the skies! But they have never seen God! I would like to ask who in this world has really witnessed the existence of gods? ”
So the human supremacists declare.
Luo Qi naturally knew that these gods did exist, but because they were born for a relatively short time, they lost the opportunity to continue to grow, and they were still in a state of ignorance.
Thinking of this, his consciousness swept across the surface of the desolate planet.
Despite the ravages of war, some humans survived. They are scattered all over the continent, surviving their lives.
These human civilization technologies have completely collapsed, and the originally highly developed magic technology has been lost in the war.
All that remains is the devastated land and the wonders that survive.
This war took a terrible toll on humanity, and for the next 50 millennia, human civilization remained in a tribal form.
Along with the survival of humanity, there are also gods who have not been born long ago, and they have gradually learned to respond to human beliefs and spread widely among the remaining human societies.
Luo Qi retracted his consciousness, he knew that he could not make this fragile world worse.
If another global catastrophe were to be triggered by his consciousness, the remnants of human civilization would be completely destroyed.
He continues to look at the history of mankind.
He saw humans build massive space warships.
He saw that humans had built towering space fortresses outside the atmosphere of the planet Gaia.
When humanity is cheering for its brilliant achievements, they feel that their civilization will continue to shine.
Human scientists have received a message from tens of thousands of years ago.
"I hope you're ready."
At that moment, the whole human world boiled.
This message is engraved on the planet Gaia, and it is like the voice of the planet Gaia, spreading forever.
Religious believers claim that this is a prophecy of the gods, and that only those who pass the test of the gods will survive the apocalypse of the future.
The Ambition shouted that this was the beginning of the evolution to the higher creatures, and the key that the higher civilization left to the superior races.
Fueled by the conspirators, they boasted that this was a plan by the top leaders of the countries to begin purging the lower human beings.
It was at this moment that the Pandora's box of humanity opened.
