"It can't be!"

The old man slapped the table and stood up, his eyes turned into vertical pupils, staring at the earth where the illusion had evolved. He could see clearly that although it was devastated, humanoids were rebuilding from the ruins. At the junction of Europe and Africa, elves on one side and dragons on the other, two intelligent races, but they are seamlessly blended and celebrate together.

At this moment, the old man's gaze fell on an elf wearing a crown and a hexagonal dragon, who were saluting each other in a gesture of respect. The old man knew in his heart that the actions of the two and the meaning they represented were both peace talks.

The evolution of the illusion is extremely rapid, and in the blink of an eye, the "Earth" turns several times. Looking at the two races that restored peace after a series of wars, watching the civilization of the elven era flourishing more and more, watching them develop technology and go out of the earth, the old man was a little lost and sat down in his chair again.

"Impossible, real history, not like this. He muttered.

"So, tell me. The blonde man stretched out his hand, and the illusion flickered, "What kind of history do you remember?"

"For 2.6 million years, we have existed for 2.6 million years, and we have been fighting with the elves for almost 2.6 million years. Finally, as we each built our temples and began to make gods, the hatred accumulated to the point of no return. ”

The blonde man continued: "It was at that time that a human became the fuse. ”

"Whew, yes, that's it. The old man let out a breath, and when he said this, his mood seemed to be much smoother, "At that time, in addition to us and the elves, there were many other intelligent races on the earth, including humans. Many of them suffer from the dragon's breath of our people, because a large number of their people have been dragonized and become slaves of the dragon, which will affect the continuation of their own race. In fact, many intelligent races have disappeared in the long river of history because of this, which shows the strong aggressiveness of our race. ”

The blonde man nodded: "So, the elves who felt this, in response to the calls of other weak races, secretly developed a powerful magic, which can be used on those creatures that have not yet been completely dragonized, and can remove foreign bloodlines from their bodies." ”

"That's what happened. However, greedy humans, unsuspecting the elves, stole the magic. The more the old man spoke, the more excited he became, "Man, change it beyond recognition, almost completely upside down, and give this new magic a very apt name - blood transplant technology. ”

The blond-haired man said: "In order to make the human race grow stronger and survive the continuous struggle between the two intelligent races, they use this method to make their ordinary clansmen borrow the power of the ancestral bloodline and other magical creatures, which is not greedy. ”

"Heh, this technology itself has stolen the power of us and the elves in a row, and it is not greedy?"

The blonde man smiled slightly, but did not retort. Although the old man has been alive for a long time, the pattern has not changed much, and he is still confined to one family, which may be because of his long life, which leads to his view of time being quite different from that of ordinary humans, and his mental growth is slower. In this way, it seems that explaining to him is thankless, and the man simply remains silent.

Seeing this, the old man smiled proudly: "Greedy and stupid people, it didn't take long for their actions to be discovered by the half-dragon clan under our command. So, we also learned about the elves' actions. This is a means directly aimed at our people! So, the real war appeared. From a region, to a continent, and finally, to the whole world, everywhere is enveloped in the flames of war. ”

"Then, according to your opinion, both of you will perish. Only the creatures that survived were left with a broken world. The man stretched out his hands, "I can tell you very clearly that what you say is true. ”

"Then, you're wrong!" the old man stared at the man, his gaze aggressive.

The man lowered his eyes and smiled, avoiding the old man's edge: "I forgot to tell you that the earth I have demonstrated is incomplete. ”

"Are you admitting that you were wrong?"

The old man's heart had just been put down, and the man's next sentence lifted it up again.

"No, I just want to tell you that in the absence of the astral spirits, history might not have been the way it is now. ”

The man raised his eyelids, and his clear green pupils seemed to be calm water, undisturbed. The old man's heart became more and more uneasy.

"What do you mean?" he said in a deep voice, not in a good tone.

"Think about it, the two races with long lives and superior wisdom will fight for millions of years for such a small place as the earth? Will they fight to the death for such a trivial matter as solving the problem of dragonization? This magic does not seem to be shaken, no, it has not touched the foundation of the dragon clan's inheritance at all. Dragonized creatures, do you care? Finally, think about it, you really only escaped to this continent because you were lucky, but this continent was independent of the world before you were born. Moreover, before saving you, countless ancient creatures that should have perished tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years ago, have been saved. Do you think all this is unreasonable and just a coincidence?"

Under the man's repeated questioning, the old man's face changed several times, but he remained silent, and his heart had already set off a monstrous wave.

"You have collected so many history books in vain, and you have not summed up a single historical law, not to mention the slightest trace of historical laws! After experiencing the wars of antiquity, you think that you look down on everything, and you are detached from things, but your vision is still narrow, and you cannot get out of the framework of the race! After so many years of existence, you are still a blind leaf, and you are a fool here to talk about dreams!"

The rebuke was deafening. Under the man's gaze, after a long time, the old man finally lowered his head in shame. At this time, Kevin and the red-robed man on the side were stunned, stunned like wood.

For Kevin, the conversation between the man and the old man is too informative. He was dumbfounded because his head couldn't turn around for a while.

And when the scene in front of him falls into the eyes of the red-robed man, it is no longer just a matter of a lot of information. He already knew that the world was far wider than he imagined, and he knew that the old man's erudition and strength could not be tricked. Because of this, the man's words, as well as the old man's reaction, will bring him a complete shock. At this time, he can no longer describe his mood in words, and can only silently digest everything that happened today in the future.

As the existence with the longest experience in the field, the old man is naturally the first to recover. Desperate to know the truth, he put aside his complicated thoughts and spoke with a trembling voice.

"Tell me, tell me! I want to see the world as it really is!"

"Reality is always cruel and unacceptable, you have to think about it. Sometimes, if you want to live easily, learning to deceive yourself is a good idea. ”

Realizing that the man was giving himself a chance to pull back from the precipice, the old man smiled gloomily, he had already made a choice in his heart, even if this choice might make him miserable. There is no regret medicine in this world, and the old man understands that there is only one opportunity to learn the truth in front of him, and he would rather be stabbed in his heart now than chew the taste of regret day after day in the future.

"No matter what the world is, I choose to face it head-on!" he replied categorically.

"Is that your attitude? Okay, then you listen. ”

The man was lying on his back, and the square chair followed his movements, turning into a recliner. He lay and looked out, his gaze seeming to pass through the dark dome, to the sky, to the distant past.

"At the beginning of life, the astral spirits have existed. Creatures are the food they prepare, even the elves transformed by starlight and the dragons born of the leylines. They are Kronos, the titan of the Child. And you, the dragons and the elves, are the Hades, the likes of Poseidon, who were swallowed up by Kronos. ”

"For 2.6 million years, the dragons and elves have been fighting for 2.6 million years. Two million million years, you have been able to accumulate a great deal of lessons and realize the irrationality of confined to this small planet, so as to get out of the quagmire of war and move towards a future of union between the two races, but no. In 2.6 million years, you have been able to develop the technology to travel the universe, but you have not. ”

"However, you still have a little struggle, and that is to build a temple to create a god. That's right, the people of insight in your two races, after studying the long years of 2.6 million years, have finally discovered that behind the curtain of history, there is a black hand. They know who this black hand is, and they know how to deal with it, and your existence is proof of that. ”

"Is my existence proof of this?" the old man fell into deep thought, and after a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Although we are food, we are also afraid of it. All of this is because the souls of the dragon gods and the elven royal family are already strong enough to resist their control over us. Even if we are food, we have the power to resist!" said this, the old man looked excited.

"But that's not enough, you have to take your entire race and break free from the shackles of fate. ”

The old man continued: "So, some of the clansmen began to create gods, wanting to gather the power of the dragon gods and resist them. Then, they ignited the hatred that had accumulated between our two races for 2.6 million years, and led the situation of war to the point of no return. Eventually, the elves perished, the dragons breathed, and the ancient era ended. They can finally enjoy their food with peace of mind. By the end, his face was extremely ugly.

"That mass extinction, and the five mass extinctions that took place on Earth before you were born, was a feast for the stars. They are reluctant to bear these delicacies, and they are even more afraid that the living beings will be completely extinct, so there is this piece, which was independent of the world's continent before you appeared. They, after a big meal, want to have some dessert!"

The man smiled, full of sarcasm. The other three present listened, but shuddered.

"My soul is not fed and is getting weaker. And the star spirits, day after day, devour living beings, and they grow stronger and stronger. One day, I will not escape the fate of becoming food. The old man spoke slowly, facing the man with a sad expression, "I beg you, tell me the way to liberation!"

"There is no free lunch in the world, answer me a question, and give you a promise. ”

"But if you ask something, you will answer everything!" the old man said with a solemn face, and he agreed without hesitation.
