Chapter 4451 [Relics from the Last Era]

Xiang Nan was deeply shocked after listening to Tia Dharma's introduction.

Later, he found the Inca Golden City and the Lost Temple of the Mayan Empire, and obtained the "Sun and Star Amulet" in the Yucatan Peninsula.

There are three major civilizations among the Indians in North and South America. The northernmost is the Aztec civilization, located in the central and southern part of Mexico. The middle is the Mayan civilization, located in the southeastern part of Mexico. South America is the Inca civilization, located in Peru.

Therefore, the Inca Empire, the Mayan Empire, and the Aztec Empire are actually three completely different countries and should not be taken seriously.

The Aztec Empire had collapsed under the attack of the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortez, and even the Quetzalcoatl they believed in was now dying due to the massive death of its believers.

The Inca Empire was also destroyed by the Spanish colonist Francis Pizarro. Although they plundered all the gold, silver and jewelry in the Inca Empire's treasury, the real big money was still in the Golden City.

This golden city is located deep in the mountains of South America. No one can find it without a map. The Spanish colonists once traveled through mountains and rivers to find this golden city, but in the end they found nothing.

However, under the guidance of the Mao Kun Map, Xiang Nan found the Golden City deep in the Andes Mountains.

It turned out that this was indeed a city made of gold, used to worship the most supreme god of the Inca Empire - Inti, the sun god.

Because the sunlight is golden and gold is also golden, the Incas believed that gold was the incarnation of the sun god and that gold was most suitable for worshiping the sun god. Therefore, they built an extremely luxurious temple for the sun god in the jungle.

But the most valuable thing in the temple is not the hundreds of tons of gold, but the golden rod blessed by the sun god.

It turns out that the ancestors of the Inca Empire set out on the road to founding their nation with a golden rod blessed by the sun god. The sun god told them that as long as the golden rod could be poked into the ground, that would be their home.

When they arrived in Custe, they found the golden rod stuck into the soil, so they settled there and eventually grew stronger. This golden rod also became a symbol of the Inca royal family and was worshipped in the Temple of the Sun for generations.

It is rumored that whoever obtains this golden staff can summon the light of the sun god, dispel all evil, depravity and corruption, and possess powerful divine power.

But unfortunately, the Spanish colonists were too cunning. They first lured and killed the old emperor, then supported a puppet as emperor, and then quickly killed the puppet, destroying the entire Inca Empire.

Therefore, the Inca royal family was completely wiped out before they could retrieve the golden staff. After the death of the Inca royal family, the secret of the Golden City was completely unknown, but it was eventually found by Xiang Nan.

……

The Mayan Empire was also destroyed by Spanish colonists in the 16th century. However, before the empire was destroyed, the rulers of the empire hid a large amount of gold, silver, treasures and rare treasures in the temples.

Over the years, the Spanish colonists have tried to search for it, but in the end all their efforts were in vain.

Because the temples of the Mayan Empire are hidden deep in the lush rainforest, it would be extremely difficult to get there without knowing the way.

But for Xiang Nan, finding the lost temple was much easier.

However, there are still many mechanisms, traps and monsters in the temple.

In particular, a tribe of headhunters have guarded the temple for generations. They are very short, only half the height of an ordinary person, but their movements are extremely agile, like a monkey.

This makes them elusive and unstoppable in the dense rain forest, and they are also skilled in strange witchcraft and blowgun darts.

When Xiang Nan saw them for the first time, he couldn't help but think of the little savages in the Kurast Jungle in the third level of "Diablo 2".

Fortunately, Xiang Nan was proficient in magic and passed through the area guarded by the headhunters without bloodshed and entered the lost temple. Not only did he successfully find the wealth of the Mayan Empire, but he also found a legendary crystal skull. It is said that the crystal skull contains the mysteries of the universe and life, and once it is solved, it can gain infinite wisdom and knowledge.

But according to Tia Dalma, the crystal skull is not that powerful. "It is just a relic from the last era."

"The last era?" Xiang Nan was very curious.

“Humans are not the first generation of masters of this world. This world has had many generations of masters, and I don’t know exactly how many generations.

Each change of the master represents an era, and each era goes through the process of birth, growth, decline and destruction. And after each destruction, there is always something left.

This crystal skull is a relic from the last era." Tia Dharma explained, "It records the knowledge of the last era, but it should be just some fragments.

I advise you not to interpret it easily. Like I said, the more you know, the more dangerous it is. There are many evil gods that even I dare not provoke. Be careful that you will be targeted by them."

……

"Then are you gods also the survivors from the last era?" Xiang Nan asked curiously after hearing this.

Since Tia Dharma said that something would survive the destruction of the last era, could these gods also be the products of the last era?

They mastered civilization and abilities that people of this era did not possess, and therefore were regarded as "gods."

Just like if Xiang Nan could travel back to the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, even if he only had a lighter in his hand, he would probably be regarded as the God of Fire by those primitive people.

"Shut up. I'm telling you, don't ask any more questions." Tia Dharma became furious when she heard this.

Seeing this, Xiang Nan had no choice but to shut up.

But judging from Tia Dharma's reaction, he knew that his guess was probably correct.

In fact, the idea that gods are the remnants of the previous era is reflected in many mythological stories and game novels.

For example, in Mayan mythology, the earth has gone through five eras, and the ruler of each era is different. There are people with three eyes, and there are races that master high-tech civilization...

The snake god in "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is also immortal. Although only a skeleton and a snake eye are left of him, he will be resurrected again after the end of the universe, so he is regarded as a symbol of immortality.

Even the Jade Emperor in the Middle-earth mythology went through countless calamities before becoming the God of Gods. And each calamity was a success or failure of the heaven and earth, which was the same as the era mentioned by Tia Dalma.

Therefore, many gods, such as Zeus, God, Poseidon, Quetzalcoatl, spirits of nature, etc., may be the remnants of the last era, or even the era before that.

They possessed some kind of magical ability or technology, and therefore were regarded as gods by humans in the barbaric times and worshipped from generation to generation.

However, Xiang Nan immediately stopped himself from thinking further.

Because according to Tia Dharma, there are many evil gods in the spiritual world, and they are extremely evil. The more you know, the more dangerous it may be.
