Chapter 539: The Golden Age
What kind of world is this?
The land is boundless, and all kinds of natural wonders of green vegetation are erected on the earth.
Arches formed by huge boulders.
Kilometer-high giant sculptures.
Reaching into the sky, you can't see the sky.
A giant island floating in the air.
All kinds of wonders.
These are things that Arka has never seen before.
Naturally beautiful sky, always running the rotating sun.
These are scenes that Arka hasn't seen in a long time.
In this boundless land, there is a development of civilization everywhere.
The earth is so big that it seems to have no borders, and what is called the ocean is just an inland lake on a continent.
The real ocean is even more unthinkable.
The people who live on it develop civilization, improve their strength and forge tools, but they will never be able to set foot on the borders of this world in their lifetime.
Here, the gods walk the earth.
The kingdom of God is established in the sky, in the clouds, under the sea, and on the earth.
These gods walk the world, control their power, and change the world.
Alka looks like a dream, but it's real.
He basically had a general idea in his heart, and the scene in front of him should be the past. The world of the once shattered golden age.
Through his own eyes that saw through the secrets, he went to see the treasure house of the world that he had held in his hand before, the side of the dream.
In this way, I saw what it had experienced.
Through the treasure house, I saw the phantom of the former world.
Floating in the sky, watching the world move, Arka didn't know what age the world was in.
Because the so-called golden age span is too long, too long, and there is hardly a completely accurate time record.
Then he only felt that what he was looking at had fallen from the sky, that is, the key to the world's treasury had fallen.
Arka's gaze also fell to the earth.
It's no longer the kind of general scenery that you've been seeing when you've been soaring in the sky.
Look at your surroundings.
It's the edge of a wooded field.
There is a trail that people have stepped on after passing.
At this time.
A boy carrying a basket on his back and wearing something resembling rattan or straw sandals approached.
Judging by his countenance, he may have been thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing ordinary rag clothes.
It seems to be speaking some kind of language.
Arka listened to it, but he hadn't heard it at all, so naturally he couldn't understand it.
He saw the key and held it in his hand.
In other words, the boy in front of him is the first person to get the key.
Then it can be judged from the legend of the treasure house that it appeared a long time ago, even before the Festival of the Gods.
The time span is too long, so that the number representing time is too large to understand.
The key opens the treasure trove.
Time seemed to pass a little too slowly, and Arka waved his hand, and time began to speed up.
In the phantom, Arka watched as the young man in front of him got the key, opened the treasure house, and obtained the divinity suitable for him from it.
A gift from the world.
Is this the first divinity given away by Mother World?
With divinity, the teenager relied on his own abilities to begin destroying the monsters around his home. With their friends, family, and clan, they have established a better gathering place.
It can be seen that this era is very, very ancient, and it seems that it is still in the barbaric period of the tribal system.
However, Alka, who has seen the whole picture in the sky in general, is not sure.
It can only be said that this is the case in this area.
The world is too big.
Time sped up again.
Alka is almost skipping some useless segments.
When the teenager was in his 20s, a castle was built, around which a new gathering place was built.
The safe environment and strong strength attracted more people to join the city-state.
The city-state is getting bigger.
In the acceleration of time, Arka clearly watched the city be built as quickly as building blocks.
Even the young man who had attained divinity had already had countless offspring and was long dead.
In just a few moments, Arka may have crossed hundreds of years.
The key that carried his vision had already flown into the sky, but he deliberately kept his gaze here and looked at it for a while.
Arka jumped back and then returned to the sky with the advantage, looking at where he would fall.
In this way, Arka watched many times the key fall, allowing different beings to gain divinity.
Arka probably had some understanding of the appearance of this key in this era, and it fell randomly from the sky somewhere.
It is not a random drop, but a drop on the edge of a crowded crowd.
That means there's always going to be someone here.
The longest Alka, a simple leap, was picked up in about two years.
And when someone comes here to get it, it means that the lucky person can obtain the essence of divinity, and match themselves to become a divine creature of this era.
This time it's still a mortal.
After obtaining the essence of divinity, he once again repeated the actions of the last lucky person who obtained the gold of divinity, just as Arka expected.
Maybe it's because this era is too old, and there are too many wild monsters of all kinds around.
The one who has attained divinity.
They're all doing repetitive things.
Destroy the surrounding monsters and establish a gathering place, but his gathering place was finally destroyed, from a monster whose strength had reached the demigod stage.
I finally saw something different.
Alka fixed his vision to speed up the time, and began to watch the man's life.
After the destruction of the foundation, he began to travel everywhere to destroy monsters.
And then die.
Forget it, let's find something special and take a look.
After this.
It's actually a god.
Arka hadn't seen the god, or he had no idea what it was.
Although there are many references to the gods in the books of the Great Library, they are not exhaustive.
Not to mention this time period.
The god in front of him also gained a divinity, which obviously increased his own strength, and after he obtained the divinity, he was simply improving his strength.
And he seems to know that this is the stuff of the world, and he is still thanking the world in his mouth.
And just like that, the keys began to pass on.
Alka's eyes also began to follow the people who had picked up the keys, and his understanding of the world broadened.
Knowledge of the old days.
Although he was using time acceleration, he was watching in a very general way.
Some people's life Alka even takes a few minutes to read.
Sure enough, in this golden age, the strength of these ordinary mortals could only reach two or three stages at most under the irrigation of these magical powers.
And because of the changes caused by the surrounding environment, even if these ordinary people who have reached the second and third stages are only physically stronger and live longer, there is no way to use these abilities.
Looking at the fact that most of them are shamans, and beliefs similar to gods, able to use these magic powers roughly, very roughly.
And those who can break through this limit are naturally those mortals who have picked up the key and opened the treasure house to obtain divinity.
Or work together to take out a powerful monster by various means and obtain the divine essence in his body.
They broke through the limits and became the patron saints of a certain gathering place.
Because although mortals are weak, the monsters around them, even divine beasts, are powerful and boundless.
In other words, the crisis faced by mankind at this time can be said to come from all directions.
However, the overall environment is very good.
Because of the existence of the treasure trove, the news seems to have spread. Of course, Arka felt that the spread should be in the circle of the so-called gods.
Arka had seen a lot of life in this phantom, and had a rough idea of the current time period, which should have been a longer time in the Tribulation of the Gods, longer than he had just thought.
It is only in very few places that there is faith in the gods.
Because at this time in time, human beings are no different from those beasts and ants in the eyes of these gods.
Maybe it was some play by the gods, or maybe some passing by by the gods caused these mortals to see certain sights. Shocked by the fact that everyone's appearance has not changed much, so in various gathering places, even some primitive tribes, the original god beliefs have been formed.
As these beliefs spread, these acts of the gods began to die.
At least that's what it looks like to Arka.
Like the scene he's watching right now.
"O fearless god of the woods, we offer our best offspring to grant us fertile land, to give us excellent food, to protect our tribe, and to protect your faithful."
Speaking of the wearer's clothing of various natural elements, such as hakama made of grass, vine and leaves. Then he held up the heads of the two children, who were obviously ignorant and did not know what they were up against.
Behind the priest, a man and a woman bowed their heads in silence, and even the woman's tears could be seen.
Obviously, this was a living sacrifice.
Finally, the huge tree in front of him stretched out vines one by one, binding the two children.
"What is this?" One of the children tapped on the vine that bound him.
"Mommy, Mommy, hug." The other child couldn't even speak, and when he saw the vine that bound him, he could only cry out, open his hand and beg for a hug.
This cry was echoed by my mother, and I stood up and wanted to go over.
Then he was held down by the people around him.
The two children began to cry and were dragged into the woods.
Looking at the phantom Arka and following in.
Watching the two children dragged by the vines into the woods, they saw the so-called god.
A divinity may be a tree, or a god similar to nature.
Alka looked weak.
None of them can be called gods.
At most, it's a demigod-like character.
Because in the phantom, Arka looked at him with only two orange and one golden discs in his body.
There is no way to obtain divinity in this world, so the demigod in front of him should be a natural god, or a descendant of a god.
Then looking at the god's status as Arka, he frowned and immediately sped up time.
For he apparently did not think of the two children as intelligent human beings, but as ants.
This is just a reflection of history, and there is nothing to be done about it, so as not to affect his mentality, Arka can only jump quickly.
Over time.
There are more and more such scenarios.
A warrior who has gained divinity has cut down a divine beast that is doing evil around it. This so-called beast was actually a son of God.
As a result of the murder of his own child, a god came down and destroyed the gathering place, and reduced the mighty warrior to a stone sculpture and stood on top of the ruins as a sign of punishment.
With the development of intelligent beings, civilization began to appear on the earth.
Some gods discovered the civilization here.
They observe the civilization as if they were observing the Ant Empire, and from time to time they participate in it.
Fool around like a game.
It is clear that with the participation of these gods, the country has not changed for the better.
All kinds of Arka couldn't help but frown, and the disgusting scenes appeared in the hands of these gods.
Just looking at it, a nameless anger inexplicably arose in his heart.
Of course there were people who tried to resist.
But it doesn't make sense.
There is no meditation in this world, there are no treasures, and there is almost no ability to resist the gods.
But fortunately, this world is big enough, even if all the gods are foolish, it is difficult to make any big problems.
Not to mention more gods, they actually ignore these ants.
The development of civilization must be accompanied by war.
Originally, it was just a conflict between two small city-states, but unfortunately, the god of war was on the side.
In reality, in the midst of that clash of gods outside the sky, Arka saw a similar aura on the other side of the enemy.
And the god of war is now, probably in the image of a young man, with golden armor on his body, a beautiful one-handed sword in his hand, and a military flag in the other.
Next to the conflict, he seemed to feel something.
Then inexplicable wars began to spread over all civilizations, and a large number of conflicts began to appear.
As time passed, Arka could see that all these exaggerated wars were caused by the god and some of his friends.
But all the dominance comes from the god of war in front of him.
He seems to have discovered that these wars strengthened his power.
And those citizens are also very happy with this fun game.
With the outbreak of war, a large number of intelligent lives have disappeared, and countless wars are about to stop, but they will break out again because of some problems, and even intensify.
The reason for all this is self-evident.
I don't know when these gods even appeared in every war, and they watched and drank and had fun, and regarded a war as a detail to watch.
"Haha, what would they think if they knew that his so-called son's adultery with the princess was influenced by me?" A seductive woman covered her mouth and laughed.
Look at this woman.
Arka probably knew who she was.
As expected, it should be the rebellious goddess of the moon.
"Did I secretly give his newborn child to the general and control him to kill him?" Another male god said with a smile.
The gods are here talking big and talking about how they started this war.
And in this war, so many gods gathered next to it were watching and appreciating.
It is because these two civilizations are among the largest civilizations on the earth, with hundreds of thousands of troops.
Even under the influence of the gods, these soldiers on both sides were not afraid of death, and their bravery was abnormal, and their morale was locked up and killed each other.
Even the officers rushed straight into battle as if they were crazy.
There is no such thing as capture and rout.
These people also believe that it is a gift from God.
As everyone knows, God just wants to see them fight each other for fun.
At this time, the Alka who was watching from the side was already numb, and he had seen too much with the key, and he was no longer surprised by these gods.
"Enough!"
A loud shout, a woman's voice, her voice filled with strange anger.
The god, who was still laughing just now, immediately changed his complexion.
And those humans who were fighting seemed to wake up in this explosion, followed by crying and fleeing.
"Mother, you're awake." The god of war said with a smile.
All the gods were forcibly pulled into the sky in an instant, and it was the first time that Arka had seen so many gods present.
If you count the number of hundreds, there are hundreds, and these are all true gods. There are all the light spots on the lowest body, one red, two orange and three gold.
Not to mention that there will be more gods to come.
Arka saw the Virgin, the god of newness, the goddess of the moon, and the flower fairy.
I also saw a blue-skinned trident strong man, who should be the god of the sea.
But they did not see life, nor did they see wise men.
Although Arka had never seen these two gods, he recognized the aura emanating from them.
I saw a lot of gods, only those gods in the patterns and records, and basically all of them came here.
Of course, some of the gods who only appeared after the Tribulation of the Gods are not here.
The illusory female figure stood in front of them.
The coercion of that anger, even if Arka's phantom stood here, he could feel a powerful pressure.
This is just a phantom of history.
"You ...... Why? ”
The world asked.
"What?" A god didn't understand.
Arka had met the god, the type who preferred to take pleasure in human slaughter.
On the human side, there is also a legend of his evil, which belongs to the existence that is rare among all the gods, and is directly classified as an evil god.
It's like watering an ant's nest with hot water.
Just for the sake of pure fun.
"Why do you want to treat it like that...... Those kids? ”
"Kid?" Everyone, or all the gods, were confused.
They don't understand who their mothers say their children are.
The apparition of humanity appeared.
"These, like you, are children of my creation."
"What? This can't be, how can these inferior creatures be the same as us! "First of all, there is a god, and I can't help but say loudly.
Many of these gods are unusually proud. Thinking that they are the noblest creatures in the world created by their mothers, how can these inferior creatures stand with themselves.
The world stood in front of it, looking at its own noisy firstborns.
"Alas......"
"Since you can't understand it, then you can be like them, maybe you can understand it."
Some of the gods reacted, their faces immediately turned pale, and they hurriedly pleaded.
But the world is clearly very angry and doesn't care about that. Reaching out and waving, one divinity after another flew out of these people's bodies.
However, the world still left a golden point of light in each of the bodies of these gods in front of them, that is to say, a Holy Grail-level divine essence was left.
Below, humans stare at the sky.
It was daylight, and one twinkling meteor after another fell from the sky.
A large number of meteors turned into meteor showers and scattered all over the world.
And these.
It's the gods who have been left behind.
Most of them landed around some gathering place.
Arka is still standing on the field.
Look at the gods who are crying and being thrown down one after another.
He actually witnessed the catastrophe of the gods through the phantom of history.
He couldn't help but want to record such a scene.
Record the conversations between the gods and the world.
The phantom of the world stood still and did not leave.
It seems that his head is turning to Arka, and he always feels as if the world is staring at him.
But the problem is that this is just a phantom, is it possible that the world can still perceive in the phantom that its own vision is a little too outrageous?
"I hope they can recognize themselves and the world."
Hearing the world's muttering, Arka couldn't help but glance at his mouth.
Then you're thinking too much.
