Returning from the abyss

When the cold wind began to become biting, Lu Ning saw the lights in the distance.

Baizu Village does not sound like a regular village, but in fact, it is a shelter established by homeless people.This place can only be described as a village - a patchwork of buildings standing in a row without much layout at all, and more of them are just tents.Lacking necessary supplies, people spend every day in hunger and cold. Complaints and dissatisfaction are the norm here.

It looks much worse than Ring City and Pure Land City.

There wasn't even any decent armed force here. When the three people came here, no one came to question them. Not to mention, no one even came to rob them.

After all, from the outside, the three of them had nothing on them. They were all on the run, so they knew they couldn't squeeze out any profit.

Along the way, Lu Ning also roughly figured out her identity, that woman's sister.Other content was not set in detail. Anyway, the two people were a couple and they ran out of the city together.

Lu Ning didn't have much time, and she didn't have the opportunity to travel around the world to see what the conditions of various races were like.

However, some things can still be seen in this village of hundreds of ethnic groups. After all, when people complain, they will inevitably bring out some past experiences.Lu Ning followed the two people for a while and heard several opinions.

Some are just unlucky and encounter small-scale battles on the way.Some were kicked out of large shelters.No matter what status or power these people had before, almost everything is gone now.The few who could bring out supplies were basically well hidden.

Lu Ning didn't see how they could survive. It seemed to Sheps that setting those things was meaningless.

That she would come here may only mean that a war may break out here.

The man and woman found a place and used magic to build a simple house.Lu Ning did not go to help, but took this time to pass through the Baizu Village and walked to the edge of the desert.

There isn't much here, yellow sand is everywhere, and there are continuous sand dunes in the distance. Lu Ning doesn't have the vision of those races, and he can't tell whether this is a good place to start a war.

Light appeared in the distant sky, and the brilliance of the double sun still shone on the land, but above the sky, Lu Ning saw something else.It was a string of white cloud circles that were slowly spreading outward. The arc formed by the cloud circles spanned the sky and disappeared into the dark night that had not yet faded.She turned her eyes slightly along this arc and saw a star falling from the sky.

"Eight seconds."

She let out a sigh, and eight seconds later, a violent earthquake wave came, and a mushroom cloud rose in the distance.The people in the Baizu Village behind them immediately panicked. They never expected that the next war would spread so quickly.

The escape began, and the people with the vehicle were the first to rush out of the village, with fresh blood still clinging to the front of the vehicle.Then came the physically strongest group.Screams and exclamations almost drowned out all the sounds. Lu Ning did not try to go back to find anyone. She activated the spell and let the wind carry her into the sky.

The sun is rising. Fissures, flashes of teleportation, sub-light speed flight, and various means of movement form the prelude to the aerial battlefield.So, Lu Ning finally determined what she wanted to ask.

Jun Ying asked her to think, and she did see the strangest problem here.

The power controlled by the six major races has been able to break through the constraints of the planet and spread outward. If there is a strange reason why they must go to war, then why does the battlefield need to be within the planet?On the other hand, the methods used by these races could not be more than a massive squeeze on the planet's resources. Every war of this scale consumes an astonishing amount of money. If they don't step into the starry sky, the planet will be hollowed out in a short time.

Time, energy, the number of civilizations, the frequency of disasters, and the scale of wars are all difficult to match. What's more, Lu Ning came from the post-angel civilization. If the previous civilizations were destroyed by disasters, what about the traces of the disasters? ?No trace left?

She didn't know when she returned to Scheps' room.

"Looks like you found what you wanted to see."

"If your restoration of the six legendary races is correct, I think there is no problem with my thinking." Lu Ning said, "If they want to match the destruction of civilization by other disasters, these races must have some unique technologies. But these technologies The origin and hatred between races are completely unknown. Races with advanced technology appeared on a strange planet at the same time, ignored the native life, but started fighting each other first. It is a bit ridiculous no matter how you think about it. What's more, with the Judging from the scale of the battles I've seen, their war will hollow out all the energy on this planet before destroying each other, and now?"

"Angel has magic exploration technology. The oldest mineral vein we have discovered was formed 140 million years ago." Scheps said, "Of course, the history of the planet is older than this, but in such a long period In the time, no trace of being exhausted has been found. And the remaining doomsdays, no matter how unsolvable they are, there are always traces of the damage they were supposed to cause."

"But you didn't find it?"

"Not found at all."

Scheps crossed his arms and said in a very cautious tone.

"The magic dating method estimates the age of the planet to be 39 billion years. We can accept that civilization existed 140 million years ago, but no matter what channels we use, we have not found traces of exhaustion. In the same way, for other disasters that should have caused As a result, we found no corresponding signs. There are no traces of the activation of the planet, no materialization of unobservable matter, and no instability in the space structure and space faults caused by space phenomena."

"So...the angels didn't believe it in the end?"

"There is no evidence, no further verification, and we cannot conduct further research on this. After all, if we don't have any actual data and just believe in those records, how can we prepare?" Scheps said.

To put it simply, Angel also faced the dilemma of having no way to start.

"Don't your gods know anything about this? God's existence should be older than angels..."

Halfway through Lu Ning's words, she suddenly saw Sheps smiling.

"Are you talking about gods? Humans and gods can't tell us more. What's more, angels don't often go to gods to ask for help."

This actually surprised Lu Ning.There are temples of the gods in every city's church district, as well as among the most splendid buildings of angels. Coupled with the origins of angels, she almost takes it for granted that angels believe in gods and are the spokespersons of gods in the world.

"I'm afraid you native races won't believe it. Before the war started, unbelievers accounted for about [-]% of the angels, while light believers accounted for about [-]%. We respect the gods, but the true believers are not so many."

"Even if God is your creator?"

"If the Creator must make his creatures believe in Himself, then the purpose of creation must be impure." Sheps said leisurely, "When gods create things, they create things. There should not and will not be any other factors behind it."

Lu Ning suddenly remembered that they had discovered that Angel had rented a place in the Kingdom of God as a warehouse, and suddenly felt that it was quite similar.

"Back to the topic. As you said, some angels also traded some ancient information to the gods, and the information they obtained made our researchers also have some conjectures. Unfortunately, the war broke out soon after. We don't have time to verify it." "I want to get your research results."

"They are not allowed to record, humans." Sheps took a blank scroll from the side, "I can tell you, but what can you give in exchange?"

"We are already re-establishing the prototype of a civilization. You should know that in the recent past, many people have taken away the knowledge we want from here. You have tried your best to preserve the Hongyin Library for the inheritance of angels. Never stop.”

"I know, and I feel sorry for that. If disaster strikes, your current level is not enough to compete with the catastrophes recorded in those records. And I can't provide you with any help," Sheps said.

"Maybe in the last two years." Lu Ning said, "We need to plan as much as possible. We may not be as good as the angels in terms of technical level, but as long as there is still time, we will not give up."

"It's just nice words," Scheps said.

"Then I can ask someone who has the ability to convince you..."

"But I don't care anymore."

Lu Ning paused. She looked at Sheps in surprise. It was only now that Sheps showed some change in her condition.

"Look, I don't have much time to maintain stability. I still need a period of recovery." Sheps smiled. "Sheps, the angel of wisdom, and the 36 treasurers of the Hongyin Library, 120 The nine recording angels all died in the war 13 years ago. I turned this place into a large magic formation and preserved everything in the Hongyin Library."

Fonts slowly appeared on the scroll, and Sheps gently placed the scroll in front of Lu Ning.

"Your test is to get through it."

"it is good."

"Transit", summer harvest time.

"Yang, our harvest is pretty good."

Lewanska sat in a shed built next to the farmland, looking at the people harvesting crops on the edge of the field, and smiled with satisfaction.

As a demi-human, Yang has a very strong learning ability, and he also has a large number of talented people under his command.Lewanska’s extensive experience in people’s livelihood, coupled with Humphrey’s carefully researched varieties, enabled them to harvest a batch of crops before summer.

"This is thanks to Mr. Humphrey," Yang said. "We didn't know at the beginning that there was room for improvement in these new fruits."

"Magic is a very good auxiliary method. Now we have mages who are responsible for agriculture, and other professional mages are also being trained. It is estimated that the next batch of people in the training class will be able to practice in ten days." Lewand Scar said.

"It's a pity that Teacher Christine is unwilling to help." Yang felt a little regretful, "Just the nutrient solution she made at random increased our harvest by about half."

"Well..." Lewanska scratched her head, a little embarrassed, "Don't go to him recently, listen to me, she is in a bad mood recently, and she may curse others."

"what?"

"You know she's studying something more difficult. What she found in the hole in the southeast three days ago was quite nerve-wracking, and that's what Christine is most concerned about."

"I still believe in Teacher Christine." Yang said quickly.

"Don't worry, I believe it too. I'll go over and see her later. Do you have other things to do? Although farming is important, as a leader, you can't just focus on this one. In order for the city to operate, you have to learn more. There are many," Lewanska smiled and patted Yang on the shoulder, then stood up and left.

The current development status of Lingri is good. Lewanska and others are basically using the fastest way to promote the development of this city, and at the same time, they are also considering the progress of their own tasks.However, since she discovered a closed cave three days ago while continuing to explore, Christine has basically lived there.

When Lewanska came to the entrance of the cave, she couldn't help but take a deep breath and make some mental preparations.

He knows very well that his teammate Christine is an extremely smart person, and many difficult problems are not a big deal to her, so if Christine starts to have difficulties, then this problem may become serious.

A demi-human ran out of the hole, carrying a box in his hand.

"What's going on?" Lewanska asked seeing the panic expression on the other side.

"No, I don't know. I just knocked on the door and asked to bring some food to Lady Christine..."

"Okay, give me the stuff." Lewanska pressed her forehead, "Go back, you don't need to come here for the time being."

The demi-humans ran away as if they were being forgiven.

Lewanska carried the box into the cave and found the research institute that had been temporarily transformed using magic.Christine made this place by herself and it only took 10 minutes.There are magic restrictions on the gate, but Lewanska and the other three companions are exempt from verification.

He reached out and pushed the door open, then skillfully turned his head to avoid a ball of mud thrown towards him.

"Today's speed is faster than yesterday, and it seems there are more problems?" Lewanska put the box on the table, "Don't be angry, eat something first."

"What a retarded design! Did you drink too much or did you run out to get into such a rubbish situation? Now you want me to wipe this ass! Do I look like I'm here to take the blame? What kind of apocalyptic disaster? What's the big deal? Disaster? You just throw this kind of thing on our heads at the distribution center?"

Lewanska touched her chin.

"Everyone started to say bad words, so the situation will become more serious..."
