Chapter 698 The Bizarre Transition of Civilizations
After finalizing his plan against Lou Su, Li Yelai waited patiently in the camp for his prey to take the bait.
Within the Chaos faction, only a few demon generals and chosen ones knew Li Yelai's identity. The rest of the legions and elites were unaware of the true identities of Emperor Fall and the human champion.
In this situation, their malice and fear towards the human champion are genuine.
So, over the past few days, Li Yelai has been methodically mobilizing various legions to conquer the ruins.
They even found some living indigenous people, but these people had degenerated to an extreme degree.
It's unclear what calamity befell them, but several races, including the snake people, giants, night demons, and bone people, who once developed remarkable civilizations, still live on this continent. However, their physical size and intelligence seem to have undergone some kind of change, as if half of their wisdom and heritage has been wiped away.
Currently, they are only at the tribal civilization stage, and some, such as the giant and dragon civilizations, have simply become like wild monsters.
Forget about resisting the attacks of Chaos and the Forbidden Zone, they couldn't even open the ruins right outside their own doorstep.
Perhaps, after hundreds or thousands of years, their civilization will advance again, and they might even be able to obtain the inheritance of their ancestors from the ruins, thus entering a period of technological explosion and possibly restoring their former glory.
Unfortunately, the various forces that have now arrived at this place of opportunity have completely dashed their hopes.
Their rise to power was preceded by their destruction.
Li Yelai thus also collected the legacies of various indigenous civilizations through the Chaos faction, as well as rare extraordinary creatures, giants, and dragons.
Through the study of archaeological documents.
Li Yelai discovered that the giant and dragon civilizations had once fought extremely fiercely.
When they were fighting, other civilizations weren't even considered savages, and humans were even more miserable during that period, with anyone able to bully them.
Finally, the dragons were defeated by the giant civilization and banished. The giants then became the new rulers. Then, they were crushed by the rising skeletal beings.
The Bone Man appears to have died at the hands of the Night Demon, who was then overthrown by some unknown civilization. The Snake People then overthrew that civilization and exterminated all its inhabitants. And then, humanity rebelled against the Snake People?
The constant alternation of civilizations, with one taking the stage after another, is truly rare.
But why are there records of Night Demons fighting giants? And of humans fighting skeletons?
Did these civilizations all coexist at one time?
Li Yelai couldn't figure it out, feeling that the records contradicted each other.
What terrified him was the fate of those civilizations. They had used all sorts of methods to preserve the flame of civilization.
But in the end, their civilization was wiped out. Though they survived, they completely lost all their heritage.
This is even more terrifying than what humanity has experienced during times of catastrophe.
Although humanity has suffered a technological slump and a drastic population decline, confining itself to giant cities, the slump is not too extreme. Through destruction and rebirth, a delicate balance has been maintained.
And these civilizations were completely wiped out.
This is equivalent to humanity regressing directly to the Upper Cave Man era. Even if we give them our cultural heritage, they won't understand it.
Even if the cavemen obtained the research blueprints for a hypersonic intercontinental ballistic missile, they could only use it as firewood.
This regression is terrifying. All the arrangements made by our civilized ancestors have become ineffective.
What kind of power is this?
Why are historical records so bizarre?
Meanwhile, Li Yelai wasn't idle either, continuing to use his inheritance to feed the amber that had been used to replace the injured amber. He did manage to produce quite a few ambers of various colors.
He then cut a piece of orange amber with red veins into five pieces, and gave one of them to Little Mad King.
He then picked up the amber node and, while it had softened, polished it into an arm guard.
The final product was a yellow amber wristband with red veins.
Although it looks ordinary, it becomes extremely hard after softening.
When unarmed, it can be used to block attacks. This is why Li Yelai chose it as an arm guard.
Little Mad Queen, on the other hand, had her own piece polished into a bracelet.
But after learning the specific effects, he frowned and said, "I'm the only one transferring damage? Doesn't that mean I can't help you reduce damage, and can only drag you down?"
"What burden could I possibly be, partner? I am the chosen one of immortality, and I also possess the Abyss Dragon Armor's ability to charge up when attacked. Naturally, I am the best target to share the damage with my teammates."
Li Yelai explained, "From a certain perspective, it can both help you reduce damage and allow me to quickly stack damage myself. Moreover, as an assassin, you probably rarely get injured. It's also a precautionary measure."
“Actually, the most suitable person to take this red node amber is Captain Yang Chen. His defense is unparalleled; he can take damage head-on without much trouble. Spreading damage would be no problem for him either,” Li Yelai said. “However, we’ll have to wait until we get back to make the final arrangements.”
Little Mad King nodded slightly, no longer declining, and added, "It would be even better if we could share the damage reduction effect with the unit while reducing damage."
"That would be too overpowered. If Captain Yang Chen were to be affected, even if someone attacks me, I would still have to accept the recoil from Captain Yang Chen. The enemy is too big, so I can't dodge either." Li Yelai shook his head with a smile. Then, looking into the distance, he said, "Speaking of which, Captain Yang Chen and the others should be arriving soon."
Meanwhile, on the other side, at sea.
A large number of merchant ships from the human metropolis gathered and were conscripted, and a large number of human warriors rushed to the sea.
They confronted the Deep Sea Legion of the Throat of the Ruins, and even the fleet of the Chaos Legion.
Humans, who originally had no fleet, should have been at a disadvantage.
But as tens of thousands of mimicking heavenly soldiers appeared on the sea, the brilliance of the Harmony Meridian Array shone on the fleet.
The gap was gradually narrowed, and it even became somewhat dominant.
The Throat of the Ruins and the Chaos Fleet could only curse and swear.
The ancient celestial court was a human civilization from the mythological era. So there's nothing to say about humans acquiring such technology; who hasn't had their moment of glory?
But the Pulse-Harmony Array Technique is truly outrageous. The Forbidden Zone, Demon Abyss Mountain, actually allowed humanity to acquire this core technology?
This level of aiding the enemy is the worst in the entire realm!
On the human fleet, Yang Chen calmly watched the opposing fleet and sea monster legion.
Suddenly, he heard a slight noise behind him and turned around to look: "Zhou Tian."
"Old Yang, I apologize for the misunderstanding that prevented me from catching up with you before," Zhou Tianbazhu said after clasping his hands in greeting.
"It's all in the past. After all, it was a curse, there was nothing we could do about it," Yang Chen said with a smile.
As a member of the champion team, Yang Chen had dealt with Zhou Tian and Lu Xin Zhi Zun.
He had also worked alongside Zhou Tian before, so they were old acquaintances.
Now, Yang Chen has become the eighth champion, and Zhou Tian has become the captain of the referee team in City One.
This filled the two of them with emotion, realizing how quickly time flies.
"Just don't take it to heart." Zhou Tian walked to the window and looked into the distance, saying, "Speaking of which, I heard your woman is pregnant? I'm going to have to get a big red envelope."
"How did this news spread so quickly?" Yang Chen nodded: "I originally planned to make an official announcement three months from now."
“It’s a big deal after all,” Zhou Tian smiled. “The birth of a human prodigy. If it were any other occasion, I would definitely drag you along for a few drinks.”
"Thank you for your kind words. But even if they're a little mediocre, it's fine; they're all my children," Yang Chen replied with a smile.
“No. She won’t be mediocre; she will make even greater contributions,” Zhou Tian chuckled.
Yang Chen sighed softly, "Zhou Tian, oh Zhou Tian." (End of Chapter)
