Chapter 333
That was a force that even Augustus and Wordsworth could not resist. Qin Chu did not think that Zimmerman and his people had the ability to resist the erosion.
If it was the worst case, the twelve great sages would have been... destroyed long ago, or they might have been transformed into terrifying monsters without Natia knowing and left Sage Mountain.
Zimmerman strictly ordered Natia not to approach the forbidden area. It was very likely that it was Zimmerman's last sanity. He did not want the girl he adopted to follow in his footsteps.
Seeing Natia's anxious tears about to fall, Qin Chu wanted to comfort her, but he did not know how to start for a while.
After hesitating for a while, Qin Chu sighed: "Natia..."
"Think of it another way. You didn't see your masters, but you also didn't see their bodies, right? That means they are very likely still alive, but they left for some reason."
Natia pursed her lips, her face still pale.
She knew that Qin Chu was just comforting herself, but in this case, Natia also hoped to think in a better direction.
As long as there was no body, there was still hope.
"I'll go look inside." Natiya whispered.
Qin Chu nodded, and after an unknown amount of time, Natiya returned. In her hand, she had nothing but a notebook.
Then Natiya handed the notebook to Qin Chu: "This is for you."
"Give it to me?" Qin Chu was a little confused.
Natiya nodded, and she took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress the sadness in her heart: 'The master seemed to have anticipated that something might happen to him, and that I would break in without complying with the ban. '
"He left a note in the notebook, telling me not to try to study the piece of meat even if I broke into the forbidden area, and asked me to give the notebook to you."
Qin Chu frowned slightly.
After a brief hesitation, he finally took the notebook and turned to the first page:
"Dear Hero, I'm sorry, I lied to you."
"I once told you that as long as you help the Sky Continent restore peace, I will send you back to your original world, but this is a lie."
"We can only summon heroes from another world, but we don't have the ability to send them back to their original world."
Looking at the contents recorded in the notebook, Qin Chu smiled helplessly. He had known this for a long time.
In the following content, everything about Sage Mountain is recorded.
The history of Sage Mountain is probably even longer than that of the Orwell Empire. At the beginning, it was just a place agreed upon by a group of powerful magicians to gather together regularly to discuss magic.
The mountains here are towering into the clouds, and studying magic here is rarely disturbed by external forces.
In the end, it gradually evolved into a powerful magic organization, which is somewhat similar to the Magician Association, but the number and strength are strictly controlled, and only magicians above the Great Sage level can participate.
At its peak, Sage Mountain had more than 300 great sages. At that time, Sage Mountain could be said to be the most powerful force in the entire Sky Continent. All the major churches were inferior to Sage Mountain...
In fact, some members of Sage Mountain were archbishops of various churches, or even popes.
They maintained very close and friendly relations with each other.
Sage Mountain stores many ancient books that have been passed down to the present, but Zimmerman obviously extracted all the most important contents from them and recorded them in this notebook.
The decline of Sage Mountain also began a thousand years ago, and it seems that it is inseparable from the war between gods.
The war between gods a thousand years ago caused some evil forces to invade the ground, and fierce conflicts broke out between many temples that had originally had harmonious relations.
The temples of the Lord of Storms and the God of Fire were destroyed in that war.
And Sage Mountain, because a large part of the great sages are important members of various churches, although they maintain a very good relationship on Sage Mountain, and are even close friends who often discuss magic day and night, once the war breaks out, they can only meet each other in life and death.
Because of the departure of these people, the power of Sage Mountain suddenly decreased significantly.
After the Holy Church and the Earth Mother Goddess Church won the final victory, Sage Mountain was also suppressed in many ways, and its influence was getting weaker day by day.
When it was passed on to Zimmerman's generation, there were only twelve people left.
When it was passed on to Natia, there was even only Natia left. The so-called Sage Mountain was already dead in name only.
"Dear brave sir, if you can persist to see this, it means that you have forgiven my deception. I thank you here."
Qin Chu exhaled helplessly, this old sly guy.
"Then, what I am going to say next is the most important, which is about the secrets of a thousand years ago."
"A thousand years ago, the entire Sky Continent had experienced decades of bloody rain... Yes, it was rain like blood falling from the sky."
Qin Chu narrowed his eyes into a slit, that should be the blood spilt when the gods fell, right?
"Then, the monster... was born."
This is impossible! ! !
Chapter 2 is sent, and I will write Chapter 3 immediately.
Chapter 396 Entrusting an orphan to the Sage Mountain (3)
When Qin Chu saw this, his first thought was that this was impossible.
Zimmerman meant that the blood rain thousands of years ago led to the appearance of monsters?
So, monsters are actually descendants of gods?
Qin Chu did not doubt that the power of gods would cause witches to go crazy and lose control, and that blood would cause monsters and other strange beings to appear. What Qin Chu doubted was that the monsters had not really appeared for a long time, only in the last few decades, and humans only began to summon heroes when they could no longer hold on.
If monsters really appeared thousands of years ago, how could there be no records at all? Is it really possible for humans to hold on for so long under the attack of monsters?
Qin Chu was full of doubts. He quickly turned to the next page, and saw dense and tiny words:
"Don't doubt it. Monsters were indeed born in the blood rain thousands of years ago."
"There are clear records in the Sage Mountain. Some lives bathed in the blood rain began to mutate, whether they were humans or beasts, but the number was not large. They were quickly suppressed by the major churches and countries at the time and did not cause much unrest."
"The most important thing is that the area where the blood rain is concentrated is not above the Sky Continent, but in the ocean, and on the other side of the ocean..."
"We don't know what exists on the other side of the ocean."
"But if there are creatures on the other side of the ocean, it is definitely the most severely eroded area."
"People often say that monsters come from the abyss, but in fact, in my opinion, monsters may come from the other side of the sea. Maybe they just opened the blockade between the Sky Continent and other places through some channel."
Qin Chu frowned. He remembered the black and purple thing that looked like a space-time wormhole when he was cleaning the monster's nest. Through that strange hole, he could peek at the picture on the other side.
It was a world with burning flames and filthy air.
Qin Chu once thought that it was the so-called abyss.
"Your Excellency the Brave may not know that the people of the Sky Continent cannot leave this land. Even if they go out to sea, the limit is only 300 kilometers. Beyond that, there is thick fog. No matter how good a navigator is, once he enters that area, he will quickly lose his way."
"Either he will be swallowed by the turbulent waves, or he will return to a distant place without knowing it."
"Even masters who have reached the level of great sages will get lost in it."
"The so-called Sky Continent is more like a huge cage. All the creatures on the Sky Continent live in this cage. Of course, from another perspective, this is also a kind of protection for the Sky Continent. We have lost our freedom, but we have gained life."
The great sages of the Sage Mountain are not just studying magic, they are more like a group of observers, watching and studying this world.
"For thousands of years, the great sages of Sage Mountain have been trying to find the truth of thousands of years ago and across the ocean. This is not an easy task."
"Each generation has gained very little, but no one has given up."
"This is a journey with no end in sight. Walking on this road will make people very tired."
"We are not without any gains. We know that the blood rain thousands of years ago is related to the void. Thousands of years ago, there was a mysterious force in the void that eroded the world. All kinds of weird and terrifying things, such as the Paradise Witch Society, the Plague School, etc., were born at that time. They brought unprecedented disasters to the world."
"But please don't try to spy on the void easily. There are at least more than forty great sages on Sage Mountain who have tried to spy on the mysteries of the void, and these people are either dead, Or crazy. "
"One of the crazy predecessors is the most talented and powerful one in Sage Mountain in the past thousand years. He even broke through the shackles of human beings. He seemed to have glimpsed the future and made a prophecy: the existence in the void will bring eternal death to the Sky Continent."
"Oh, by the way, a thousand years ago, some of your fellow countrymen even descended from another world to the Sky Continent."
"I don't know how many there are. They brought new languages and new technologies, but also brought new disasters. Most of them became weird believers and became the embodiment of disaster and fear."
Qin Chu thought of the stone tablet brought back by Athena. Some of the contents recorded on the stone tablet were obviously written in simplified Chinese. Perhaps it was the fellow countrymen who descended into another world a thousand years ago as Zimmerman said.
"Why did these people suddenly appear? There is no conclusion yet."
"We speculate that they may have been summoned by one of the parties in the war thousands of years ago."
"Some of them even left their bloodline in the Sky Continent. Their descendants often have amazing talents and strengths, far exceeding the native residents of the Sky Continent."
"However, after thousands of years, it is estimated that the bloodline should have been too thin to be recognized."
Qin Chu's face suddenly became a little weird.
Amazing talent and strength?
The first person Qin Chu thought of was Athena.
In Ireta's words, Athena has the most tenacious and powerful soul in thousands of years, and her talent in magic practice is amazing.
Even under the suppression of the seven evil statues.
Could Athena be the descendant of a fellow villager?
His fingers stroked the pages of the book. It shouldn't be such a coincidence. Moreover, as Zimmerman said, thousands of years have passed. Even if there is still blood inheritance, it is estimated that it has long been so thin that there is nothing left.
"Six hundred years ago... Ah, sorry, my thoughts are a little confused now. Please forgive me, an old man who is already over a hundred years old."
The contents recorded in the notebook are upside down.
From the chaotic strokes, Qin Chu can clearly see that Zimmerman's consciousness at that time was not normal.
"Six hundred years ago, a senior from the Sage Mountain encountered a huge heart while traveling..."
The one in the Grand Canyon, Qin Chu immediately thought of this.
"He was shocked by the size of the heart, and what frightened him even more was the terrifying energy coming from the heart. He had been lurking around and observing without getting close, until one day, he saw a dark spot on the heart suddenly fall off."
"The huge piece of meat, as if guided by some kind of will, crawled away on the ground on its own."
"Finally it stopped in a jungle, and a little girl was born..."
At this point, Qin Chu no longer had any doubts about Saya's origins.
"It was just a little girl who was just born, but she made the senior shudder. She seemed to be aware of the senior's existence, but obviously did not take the senior who was already level 90 seriously."
"In the eyes of the little girl, the senior who was level 90 seemed to be no different from the little rabbit on the ground, and was not even as interesting as a cicada lying on the tree trunk."
"It was not until the little girl left that the senior realized that his body was soaked with sweat. Then he secretly brought the piece of flesh of the newborn girl back to the Sage Mountain. After some research, he found that there was an extremely powerful energy on this piece of flesh. Once the secret in it could be understood or even swallowed, it would become the senior's "Unprecedented and unseen strong man."
"It's a pity that many people died in the Sage Mountain in order to study this piece of meat. This is really a tragedy."
"But you know, for magicians, the more bizarre and dangerous things are, the more they want to study them. This is already in the late stage and there is no hope."
"Similarly, studying the secret of this piece of meat is also one of the most important topics for me."
"In this life, I have invested a lot of energy in the study of this piece of meat, and even delayed the practice of my own magic power. Until a while ago, our research finally made a breakthrough. We found that through this mysterious piece of meat, we can actually open a door, a door to the void."
"Although we I don't know what kind of horrible existence there is in the void, but this is our lifelong dream. "
"We will enter the void and look for secrets that have been hidden for thousands of years..."
"Maybe, we will die there?"
"But for a group of old men like us, death is not so scary. The unknown makes us more curious."
"The only thing I worry about is... Natia."
"My daughter... Well, although I have never been married, the twelve of us old men can't get a wife together. It's really sad for me to say this myself. By the way, if I were to choose a wife, I would probably choose Ms. Mavis, the queen of Wordsworth. She is really too... Beautiful, although I only saw her once on the day of the emperor's wedding. "
"In short, Natia is the only one we can't give up. I'll leave her to you, brave man. You can take good care of Natia, right?"
"As for the reward... How about letting Natia be the reward?"
"Then, next, we will step into the void that we have never touched before. If there is a chance, if there is still a way to contact, we will try to inform you of what we know."
"Finally, please allow me to apologize again for summoning you to this world you don't like!"
"The door has been opened."
When Qin Chu saw the last paragraph, he was a little confused. What is this?
Entrusting the orphan to the Sage Mountain?
Although he was a little unhappy with Zimmerman and his group of old men who had deceived him for two weeks, these old men were all ruthless people.
They knew how dangerous the void was, and it could even be said that there was no chance of survival, but they still took the initiative to step into that mysterious realm.
Perhaps, they are the most worthy of the title of adventurer.
And this old man Zimmerman has a very sharp eye. He can see how much he hates this world in the second round.
