The world enters the age of myth

Psychic abilities among the Nubians. In other words, it is the super power of the Unkai.

"There are not many technological civilizations in the Yang River! Your civilization is the strongest technological civilization we have ever encountered." Alexandra began to flatter her quietly.

However, it is a real fact that it is too difficult to develop serious technology. Up to now, the industrial chain of Unkai is still incomplete, and many things have to rely on the heritage of earth civilization.

It is almost impossible for an ancient civilization to develop into a modern civilization out of thin air.

Even if they could pick up trash in various parallel worlds, it still wouldn't work.

Developing an industry cannot be accomplished by picking up rubbish. It requires institutions, talents, knowledge, mobilization capabilities and sufficient resources.

The Internet of Earth's civilization is so developed that most knowledge can be easily accessed on the Internet, and most machines can also be purchased from other countries. Aren't there only a few industrialized countries?

As for why technological civilization is rare, there are many, many explanations. Judging from current experience, the continent that humans encountered in Yanghe has increasingly regressed in technology.

In the past, the technology of the White Mist Continent was similar to that of Earth civilization, and even slightly better in some areas. …

The relatively recent Grudge Continent is more than 20 years behind Earth's civilization in technology.

The current nightmare world is in the 1940s, set back 70-80 years!

This is likely to have a certain connection with the direction of the space tide. The Unkai is going against the current.

The next world may go back to the 19th century. At that time, gunpowder rifles were considered powerful weapons. The steam engine had just been invented and chemistry had just begun. There was no way there would be a nuclear bomb.

As for the 18th and 17th centuries, technology was even worse.

In this way, it is a matter of course that there are few technological civilizations and there are many ancient civilizations that did not develop science and technology.

After recording this, the staff on the Yunhai ship asked the next topic: "Where did you catch your slaves? How did the several foreign wars that happened in the past be fought in detail? Don’t leave anything out.”

Alexandra was very cooperative. He seemed a little thirsty. He picked up a cup with his shackled hands and took a sip of water.

"Our slaves are either through foreign wars or transactions between different civilizations. It is very rare for civilians to be reduced to slaves after committing crimes...or they are captured from different worlds, even if there is a disaster. In the world, there may also be a small number of survivors.”

"A disaster has just broken out in their world, and they are often not very strong, so they are the best choice for plunder."

As long as the civilization floating in the Yang River survives long enough, there will always be some different encounters, encounters with various civilizations, encounters evil gods, or transactions with each other, etc...

There must be a reason to survive.

If these ancient civilizations could not develop science and technology, there would definitely be more research on superpowers.

In comparison, a world where a disaster breaks out, especially a world where an idealistic disaster has just broken out, will appear very weak.

"...We have encountered many different worlds in total. Let me think about it, they are the Bubble Disaster, the Evil Ghost Disaster and the Forgotten Disaster."

Alexandra recalled her past experience, swallowed, and said: "Bubble disaster, that is, everything will slowly turn into bubbles, even humans are no exception. It is really a terrifying disaster. There is no living person left in this world, and every living thing has turned into a bubble. After we discovered this strange world, we could only run away as fast as possible."

"The disaster of evil spirits, as the name suggests, after human beings die, they will turn into life-threatening ghosts!"

"It was also an extremely terrifying world. The more people died, the more evil ghosts there were. But there were still a small number of humans with psychic abilities."

"Under the protection of the Nubi God, we were able to explore the world deeply. However, the capture operation was not very smooth. The humans there were a bit strong in combat. They stole the power of the ghosts to a certain extent through some means. …”

"What's the way to steal a ghost's power?"

"Ghost possession! The side effects of ghost possession are great. The more power you use, the easier it is for the ghost to revive. The ghosts in that world will not die..."

The negotiator of the Sea of ​​Clouds touched his chin. This was somewhat similar to the resentment of the Cursed Continent, but it was more sinister.

As the original high-level executive, Alexandra described in detail the experience of exploring another world.

The human beings in the Evil Ghost Calamity have learned so many strange arts, and they seem to have mastered a specific superpower system.

But obviously, there is no corresponding sample.

Yunhaihao didn't know whether what he said was true or false.

"Hey, this kind of superpower system has great side effects and can only be completed in that world. So it doesn't have much value. What's more, the more powerful the human being, the stronger the ghost he becomes after death. It's really an amazing thing. A world of despair..."

Seeing his compassionate look, the experts sitting opposite couldn't help but sneer in their hearts.

Alexandra found that her little trick didn't work, so she quickly changed the topic and said honestly: "There is also the disaster of forgetfulness. We call that continent the Forgotten Continent. In that world, human beings will continue to He lost his memory and became mentally retarded."

"He will forget who he is, forget his parents, forget everything, and end up like a fool, with only animal instincts left. When we arrived in that world, all the people there turned into monkeys. of savages.”

"A civilization has inexplicably degenerated into a primitive era. But there was still something gained in that world. We captured a lot of savages, and there were indeed a lot of them."

"Were those savages finally thrown into the altar by you?"

Alexandra opened her mouth and whispered: "Some people were sold..."

He also knew that the other party had the superpower to judge lies, and everything he said was true, and he would not lie. At most, he would deliberately hide a little information.

Lying will be punished. These people are so pampered that just being hungry is a bit unbearable.

And there is no point in lying. The Nubian civilization behind them is dead...

The negotiator frowned and shook his head subtly.

He finally managed to survive on his own planet, but was caught by these Nubians and thrown directly into the altar. This guy is still talking shamelessly here, and the regret he is showing so far is just because he is a prisoner.

He sighed in his heart: Being weak is really the original sin...

Fortunately, we won.

On the contrary, several experts who were listening in the back started discussing in a low voice behind the glass.

"The disasters the other party has experienced sound a bit scary, and we can't solve them."

"Hey, I didn't expect that the White Mist Continent and the Cursed Continent would be the mildest disasters. By the way, we still have a one-year agreement with the original residents of the Cursed Continent. I don't know if we can fulfill this agreement. "

"It should be no problem. We still need to go to the Cursed Continent to obtain more remnants of the Resentment... Next is an era of peaceful development. There will be no problem in dedicating some of our manpower to carry out tasks."

"There may be more and more idealistic disasters in the future. It may have something to do with the times and the level of human superstition... What is the reason for the disaster?"

…

After this interrogation, Alexandra got the "Golden Spicy Chicken Grilled Fragrant Rice Burger" that she longed for.

Facing this steaming hot burger with an alluring aroma, his saliva secreted crazily and his stomach growled.

Take one bite!

The aroma of food blooms on the tip of your tongue! There is chicken, thick bread, vegetables, and fragrant rice that looks like crispy rice.

That crispy feeling...

"Food appears in the mouth, just like love appears in youth!" The old man suddenly remembered the masterpiece of a poet.

What's the name of that poet...

He couldn't remember it for a long time, he only remembered these two sentences.

It's just a pity that now, it's gone, there's nothing.

There are only five of them left in the entire civilization, and all cultural inheritance and blood relationships have disappeared!

Thinking of this, this old man in his fifties couldn't help but burst into tears in prison...

"Ugliness brings trouble!"

The guard on guard rolled his eyes and paid no attention.

After waking up from hibernation these days, these old men seem to be particularly sentimental, sighing and crying at every turn. But what’s the point? Many civilizations have been destroyed, and countless cultures have been buried. Isn’t it that your civilization is nobler and your cultural inheritance is particularly precious?

After crying for more than ten minutes, Alexandra picked up the burger on the table and ate it in small bites...

…

In this way, the interrogation of the Nubians continues.

Almost every day, a few hours are asked.

If you ask well, you will be rewarded; if you ask poorly, there will be no reward.

These people were detained separately, and some questions were repeated after a while to reduce the possibility of lying or concealing information.

"Then please tell me, among the civilizations of Yanghe, is your Nubi country considered strong or weak?"

"It should be considered a powerful one! Because we have the help of God Nubi, we can survive some disasters safely! Without Nubi's existence, some evil gods would come to our door for no reason."

"Evil God? What kind?"

Alexandra frowned and thought for a long time: "Evil gods usually do not appear directly in our world, but affect people's minds in some way. For example, a person suddenly sleepwalks in his dream. I wrote a book that can affect the minds of people around me... This influence is very subtle, and it is difficult to detect directly before it expands in scale, and it is not easy to deal with after it expands in scale."

"So that's it."

Another important piece of information!

"We have an altar, which can directly protect us from the influence of evil gods. The total population of our Nubian country is considered large, with a total of more than 15,000 people... However, as you know, the civilizations floating in the Yang River may be more Perhaps you have mastered psychic abilities and escaped from your original world. The more you experience, the more you cannot underestimate them."

Alexandra talked about a lot, including some of the civilizations they had encountered.

For example, consider a civilization that raised giant tortoises.

Their giant turtle ship was obtained from the giant turtle civilization.

"They have a total of 5 giant turtles! We used a large number of slaves to replace one of the giant turtle ships, and it has been used until now."

"What do they want slaves for? Like you?"

"Maybe... they also have similar gods that need to be sacrificed."

The negotiator frowned, and the information revealed by the other party seemed quite important.

If the civilization outside is similar to the Nubian civilization, you need to be more cautious when contacting it.

"But it is impossible to compare with God Nubi. God Nubi is definitely the strongest god!" Great Pharaoh Alexandra vowed: "Other evil gods cannot be like Nubi, who can make wishes as they wish. At most, they can We can only protect our civilization through blood sacrifice. It is impossible to exchange for equal value like God Nubi. It is absolutely impossible."

"Nubi is just an exchange of equal value and is the kindest god. Other evil gods also need faith, flesh and blood, and may even affect their sanity... I always feel that some civilizations are composed of a group of lunatics, and their mental state is very abnormal. .”

"Alexada, don't you feel it yourself?" the expert said: "You took the initiative to attack us, but your mind was actually affected. Your greed has been greatly amplified, and you have become impulsive and gambling. Thinking Nubi is omnipotent.”

"You priests are addicted. Whenever you have a problem, you will seek help from Nubi. You know that this behavior is very dangerous, but you still do it."

Alexandra was stunned for a moment. As a person in the game, it was difficult for him to realize this subtle change.

But after being exposed at this moment, when I think back to the decision-making at that time, it seems that my mind has been taken over by a kind of fanaticism and I have lost my mind.

However, the matter has come to this, and he doesn't want to regret it, let alone regret it. He would rather have a blank mind than think about the past.

The days of the past can never come back. He is just a prisoner. He is afraid of denying his life because of regret.

He took a sip of water and said: "In short, there are many civilizations and they also need a large number of slaves. Population is a very good trading unit."

Seeing his unrepentance, these experts sneered in their hearts and shook their heads slightly.

According to this guy, Nubi, the strongest god, is flying in the sky all day long. Moreover, he will be prostituted for free every 10 days, and he might even die soon.

However, they also know the most important point. There are many civilizations that have existed for a long time, and they are all protected by similar evil gods!

This kind of thing is very cruel!

But there is no way, in order to survive, it is understandable.

According to Unkai's ethics, human sacrifice is impossible. The people couldn't accept it, and neither could the soldiers in the army.

Several voices in the headphones were discussing: "It's very troublesome to contact these evil gods. Their abilities should all be S-level, which is far stronger than weird in the traditional sense."

"It's nothing. We also have S-class here, as well as hydrogen bombs and crystal energy cannons. They may not be incapable of fighting."

"I am reminded of the ancient sailing ship that was discovered before. It was the ancient sailing ship that was discovered before the disaster broke out on the earth. There is also a strange sculpture on it, which may be used for sacrifice to the evil god..."

Everyone discussed it for a few times, and some of them were anxious and started to look for old information.

"How did God Nubi end up on your ship?"

"In the middle of a huge crisis... it suddenly appeared."

A look of reminiscence appeared on Alexandra's face, "In our world, the disaster that breaks out is the disaster of aging. All life will age at a rate of 10 times or 20 times more!! Although this kind of disaster is terrible, it will not be short-term. Even if someone dies inside, there is still a chance to escape.”

"So we have a very large population that escaped. We are a civilization that is good at fishing, and we have a lot of boats."

The disaster of aging is another kind of disaster that is not very scary but is difficult to resist.

It takes three to five years to kill an adult and will cause young children to grow in a short time.

But the consequences of this disaster are so serious that it means there is no solution.

There is no way for a technological civilization like the Unkai to solve this problem.

Alexandra said: "The life of escaping into the Yang River was not easy. We soon encountered huge waves... These huge waves were enough to overturn all the fleets."

The Nubians' initial fleet was a sailing ship made of wood. The largest ship had a tonnage of only one thousand tons. There are a lot of them, but when they are spread out, their ability to withstand natural disasters is greatly reduced.

In despair, the god Nubi suddenly appeared and saved everyone.

"Is this...appearing directly?"

"We originally had a tradition of offering sacrifices to gods, and on that day, a blazing flame appeared on the altar."

When the Yunhai negotiators heard this, they all looked at each other. They took this information very seriously.

"Preliminary judgment shows that what he told was not a lie, but I don't know if there is any hidden information."

"Assuming that the Nubi God appeared on his own under strong belief, this is a very informative statement. Because their civilization itself is a religious civilization. If you follow this inference, this kind of religious civilization is in panic And in the chaos, it is easy for evil gods to come to you."

“Those like us who don’t have strong beliefs will naturally not appear.”

"Maybe that's it...a civilization protected by evil gods has a higher survival rate than a technological civilization?"

It’s true that bad money drives out good money.

Unless scientific and technological civilization develops to a certain level, it really cannot defeat this kind of civilization protected by evil gods.

"What do you know about Xia Wenming?"

"Everything is hearsay. We only know that it is an extremely powerful technological civilization. All technological civilizations have the first goal of obtaining the legacy of Xia Civilization. Any bit of garbage is valuable."

Alexandra waved her hand, not daring to talk nonsense, "I have told you everything I know, and I really don't know what I don't know. The gap between Xia Wenming and us is too big."

Since each other's language was not fluent, these conversations took almost a day, and everyone was a little sleepy. In addition, the staff still had to analyze and compare the confessions of the five people, so they temporarily put these guys in jail.

The days are long, so let’s ask these Nubi people what they think of in the future.

Inquiries about these information are undoubtedly precious to Yunhai.

People actually lack experience in foreign exchanges. With the Nubian's confessions, they have corresponding guarantees when communicating with other civilizations.

"It's a great inquiry today. You can make a simple request. We will accommodate you."

But it is limited to simple requests, such as a good meal, a bottle of drink, etc., and it is impossible to regain freedom.

Although Alexandra was eager to have another good meal, she thought about it and gave it up: "I want to learn the language here. If possible, please give me some relevant news newspapers... It can relieve my boredom. .”

This idea was proposed after careful consideration.

He is a smart man who knows that his value is limited to the information in his head.

So now he is like a camel, he will only answer when others ask him.

If you don't ask, he won't say much.

We must integrate into this new civilization as soon as possible, and we must show our value as soon as possible... even as a slave. Before that, you must learn more about this human civilization. The simplest way is to learn the language and read the news.

Otherwise, if you don’t know everything, you won’t be able to truly provide your own value.

"Okay! Give him a restricted reader."

"yes!"

This kind of reader has a black and white screen, is durable, and does not have too many functions. It can teach people to read and read some news released by the government. But that's all. Private forums, websites, and games are naturally inaccessible.

The available time every day is not very long, and it will automatically shut down when the time is up.

After completing this work, these expert teams exited the prison, looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"How's it going? Is your work going well these days?" Lu Yiming, who was turning into a little giant, happened to see them on the deck and asked with interest.

"These people were very cooperative and asked for a lot of useful information." These experts were no longer surprised by Lu Yiming's transformation at night. Even though it is more than 3 meters tall and close to 4 meters in size, it is indeed very oppressive. You will be a little curious when you see it at first, but you will get used to it over time.

Lu Yiming took the files and was shocked when he saw the written records, "You mean, those ancient civilizations have a high probability of surviving because they have the protection of evil gods? On the contrary, technological civilizations have a smaller probability of surviving. ?”

"Yes, I plan to compare their confessions first and then interrogate them for a while in two days."

Lu Yiming frowned slightly. This news was not too good... It meant that the survival probability of similar shelters had once again decreased.
