"...If the Rhea Revolution took away the divine power from the royal family, then the House of Elders and the Citizens' Assembly have divided the secular power from the royal family. Separation of multiple powers is conducive to the healthy development of Atlantis, but this situation It was a bit unbearable for the talented and bold emperor.

"The No.20 generation king who came to the throne as a young man has different ambitions than his predecessors. He is tirelessly committed to restoring the influence of the royal family among the citizens, and he has indeed done it. The Royal Magic Academy, the Royal Academy, the Royal Military Academy, The Royal Primary School... The establishment of these institutions enabled the royal family to be at the forefront of new technologies and to constantly attract new supporters from the private sector.

"Atlantis started its era of rapid development under the centralized efforts of the 21st king, 22nd king, 23rd king, 24th king, and 25th king, a total of five rulers."

"The army was the first to develop. The 21st king officially separated conscripts and mercenaries, and since then there have been professional soldiers who have served for life. Soldiers are no longer a temporary mixture of scholars and ordinary people, but a widely respected special group……

"...The 22nd generation king personally presided over the development of the individual armor. This kind of mana-filled coat will petrify once put on. Together with the defensive mana function, it can protect soldiers unscathed even in a big explosion... …

"...During the 25th generation of kings, the scholars of the Royal Military Academy developed flame weapons and light weapons, and at the same time strengthened the defense layer of Atlantis..."

"The Royal Academy of Agriculture was the last research institution established under the Huangzihao name. Its early inventions focused on farming machinery and water conservancy planning, and later it began to use runes to improve animals and plants.

"...The wheat improved by the magic text can grow to the height of a person, and it is not disturbed by pests...

"...Mowen cows can produce high-quality milk all year round...

"...The Mowen chicken can grow into a chicken in less than ten days after hatching...

"...The fur of the rune sheep is as delicate as cream, and as white as clouds...

"...the No. 30th generation king who created history expanded the territory of the empire to 40 islands other than Hailanger [1].

"...No.30 The fourth generation of kings believes that Atlanteans who do not have the pressure of survival will be more likely to indulge in pleasure. In order to avoid the 'degenerate atmosphere', leaders need to set new goals for the whole people. In addition to all the cannibals in the field of vision waging war, the 34th king strongly encouraged the development of expeditions. The ships of the Royal Expedition reached the ice and snow continent in the extreme south, and also crossed the ocean in the extreme east.

"During the 34th generation, a panoramic model of the Earth was the most popular toy in a children's store. An exotic overseas trip was a favorite of adults."

"The sage Mida was an adventurer during the 35th generation of kings. Although he once served in the Royal Academy, he eventually became a hero sought after by the whole people as an adventurer - he was the first Ater to fly on the moon The Landis of Lantis. The book "Desolate Land of Light" by Mida has been ranked No.1 on the bestseller list for ten consecutive years, and he himself set out to conquer the Rose Star again in the second year after finishing the book [ 2】.

"...Mida enlisted in the army after returning from the Rose Star. He designed a disc-shaped flying machine for the Royal Air Force. The advantages of low energy consumption, low noise, high stability, and high flexibility made the flying disc quickly replace the traditional The airship became the standard equipment of the Air Force...Mida added many unprecedented functions to the flying disc, such as short dives and escape from the atmosphere."

"...No.30 Nine Generation King is our last king. He loves to learn, has many talents, and yearns for adventure. I watched him grow from a boy full of curiosity about everything to a person I had to destroy. It is my sorrow, the sorrow of this country, and even the sorrow of Atlantean civilization.

"I'll tell our story at the end. It's not his fault, it's not anyone's fault, it's just that we came to an end."

"I want to start the last part by introducing myself.

"I am Priest Gora, the last Rhea priest of Atlantis.

"I felt the call of the temple on the Hundred Trees Festival when I was 7 years old. Since then, I have been living a life of three points and one line from the temple-imperial city-royal library. This kind of life is so peaceful that it is almost boring. The Temple of Rhea has been Gradually faded out of people's field of vision, people prefer to explore the mysteries of runes by themselves, rather than listen to the teachings of Rhea's priests.

"I don't need to go to the people to rescue people like the ancestors in the pioneering period. Every household in the streets and alleys has emergency sound transmission stones, and the perfect social security system also ensures the education of every child born in Atlantis. The law department's newly developed crime monitoring system is so clever that injustice has been wiped out of the land. We have eradicated crime since we eradicated hunger, eradicated poverty, eradicated dropouts.

"It sounds beautiful, but it's too boring. I have nothing to do except guard Rhea and study runes.

"The 39th King was my only childhood playmate. We used to sneak out of the imperial city to watch a giant-screen play [3] together, or stand at the inner city port to watch the departing sea ships.

"I have heard of the existence of the 'Black Stone Society' since I was a child. They are a group of citizens who have different demands from most people, and have many peculiar hobbies. Black stones have a special liking, and for example, they don’t eat animals and plants that have been modified by runes, or they hate urban areas with perfect transportation facilities, and live in groups in the outermost hilly areas, insisting that men and women farm Weaving the most primitive way of life.

"Only when new inventions and creations are promoted, they will enter the inner city and parade in black clothes. A group of fools who oppose the rune, this is what most citizens know about the 'Black Stone Society'. And In the official document, the description should be more objective: the 'Blackstone Society' is a small sect that can no longer be marginalized, and it is so weak that it can be ignored in the era of rune worship.

"I must solemnly declare here that the friction between the Atlantis government and the 'Black Stone Society' has always been restrained, and everything is carried out within the legal scope. There has never been any government agency or member of the royal family. 'has been persecuted; and until the last moment, the 'Black Stone Society' has never taken any radical and illegal actions."

"If I just describe what happened in the last few decades, latecomers will think that the birth of rune warriors destroyed Atlantis. However, the root of everything can be traced back to the external expansion of the Thirty Kings. The strategy can be traced back to the 21st generation of kings instigating the development of rune technology, and further up to the Arote reform that promoted the worship of rune, even as early as when the sages laid the first foundation for Atlantis, The rune has been integrated into the blood of Atlantis.

"The birth of the rune warrior began with the war between the 32nd king and Lemuria [4].

"The warrior Hartisfi and his comrades were once besieged, and their armor and weapons were destroyed by Lemurian magic. In the midst of the crisis, Hartisfi engraved the runes on the armor into the On his own body, the skin of his whole body turned into hard rock. The tall rock warrior broke through the encirclement of the enemy with his body and led a wonderful battle that turned defeat into victory. Died of organ failure due to the aftereffects of running runes. His body was transported back to Atlantis and treated with the highest standard that a martyr can enjoy.

"Inspired by the Royal Military Researcher, he began to study which runes are safe for the human body and which runes are harmful.

"In fact, as early as the Ater period, the sages used to draw runes on patients to treat diseases. And the priests of Rhea have also passed down from generation to generation the method of drawing runes on the foreheads of believers to calm emotions. So this research just At the beginning, I received a lot of technical support from the medical school and the temple.

"In just half a year, the government announced the whitelist and blacklist of human runes.

"Since then, running runes tattooed on the body has become popular in the army. Soldiers believe that running runes on the body is a symbol of a warrior. This trend has gradually moved from the army to the people: among the student group, the runes of wisdom are the most popular , Ladies prefer beauty runes, and runes that strengthen the body and improve safety in the circle of adventurers are entry-level common sense..."

"The real magic text warriors appeared in the late 36th generation. 58 martyrs voluntarily accepted the transformation of the whole body of magic culture and became a strong pillar to defend the city. Since the 36th generation of kings, Atlantis has been constantly suffering from natural and man-made disasters. Threats, floods, earthquakes, and spies from Lemuria. But with the efforts of Rhea's shield and rune warriors, Atlantis is still a prosperous and peaceful city.

"The early rune warriors were dead, but during the 37th generation of kings, scholars discovered the rune of consciousness connected to Rhea. The new generation of rune warriors can retain intelligence and memory, and are directly powered by Rhea. Their energy It can be fully recharged in two hours in the nest, and can work for two months after recharging.

"After the self-repairing rune was added to the rune warrior, the use period of the rune warrior became 'permanent'. A large number of volunteers signed up to become a rune warrior because they believed that it was true eternal life. At the same time, Since the problem of the lack of emotion of the rune warriors has not been resolved [5], the voice of opposition has gradually become louder."

"Finally, in the last year of the 38th King's reign, the government approved the army's application for large-scale production of rune warriors."

"...Atlantis began to divide. The radical faction headed by the 39th generation king agitated the magic culture of the whole people; on the other hand, the 'Black Stone Society' rapidly expanded its members, and the 'magic threat theory' spread rapidly among conservatives... "

"The final hour has come.

"The 39th generation king was killed by the leader of the 'Black Stone Society' in the palace of the imperial city.

"When a mother covered in runes knelt in front of me holding her newborn child, I knew that Atlantis was destroyed.

"'Send the child away for me. Let him go into the moor, and grow up among the green trees and birds and wild flowers.'

"I sent away a total of 3124 children who had no rune tattoos, and 89 survivors of the 'Black Stone Society'.

"In front of Rhea, I must admit that, at least for the last moment, my soul is a member of the 'Black Stone Society'. I want my child to grow up among the green trees, birds and wild flowers. From the moment of conception Since then, I am doomed to betray this city engraved with runes, and lead it to destruction with my own hands.

"The light of Rhea still shines on me.

"Atlantis, which sank into the bottom of the sea, still belongs to Rune. Because the rune warriors are still tirelessly guarding the city. After all, I can't be cruel enough to destroy these warriors, and I can't go against my mother's wishes." Wish. I can only let them separate.

"Let the wilderness of the sea belong to the children, and let Atlantis under the sea belong to the runes."

【1】Ms. Riddle Note: Hailanger is the distance unit of Atlantis.The Atlanteans used "Lange" to indicate land distance, and "Hai Lange" to indicate sea distance.The conversion ratio between these two units and modern international weights and measures is still controversial. For details, please refer to Appendix 6 of this book "Research on the Quantity System of Atlantis".

[2] Note from Mrs. Riddle: The rose star is the result of a direct translation. The more precise expression is "a planet that glows red like a rose", which is speculated to be Mars.

[3] Note from Mrs. Riddle: Judging from the description, it may be a form of entertainment that is similar to movies.

[4] Note from Mrs. Riddle: The Lemurian civilization is a legendary ancient civilization that stood side by side with Atlantis, located in today's South Pacific.However, no one has discovered the remains of the Lemurian civilization so far.The records on the black stone slabs in the inner city are the first evidence of the real existence of Lemuria discovered by the archaeological community.

[5] Mrs. Riddle Note: There is some ambiguity in the grammar here.The first conventional translation method is as described in the text, and the second unconventional translation method is "the lack of emotion of rune warriors has been refused to improve", that is, the army is more inclined to have no Emotional rune warrior.I personally believe in the second translation method, because I have seen rune reformers with emotions in the ruins of Atlantis.
