Invincible Chapter 307
The Star Temple hovers in the air like a floating fortress, and its optical invisibility makes it impossible to be observed by ordinary methods.
The four of Kane are located in the energy hall close to the top of the tower. This place is filled with extraordinary energy collected by the Temple of the Stars. The concentration is much higher than outside. Ordinary people entering here will die in a short time like entering a heavy radiation area. But for Kane and the others, it is a comfortable environment where they can 'breathe freely'.
From here, you can look at the vast land like from a helicopter.
At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, the monsoon brought the water vapor from the Sea of Fear to the shore, combined with the dust from the southward wind, and turned it into rain, moistening the dry land.
It should have rained just a few days ago, and you can see dots of greenery on the desolate Gobi. Herbivorous animals roam among them, while predators linger nearby, patiently looking for prey Chance……
Kane knew that this was not a paradise for wild animals. The last time he came was in 1112 in the imperial calendar of this world, when the plague broke out across the country.
According to the time flow ratio of the two worlds at 1:80, more than 20 years have passed here after three months.
The earliest intelligent species living in the Darklands were the greenskins.
This interstellar pioneer-level tenacious species really shines when given a little sunshine. The environment in the Darklands is too harsh for other intelligent races, but the green skins can survive.
There is no need to explain this to Hermione and the others.
The last time I visited the medieval warhammer world, I brought back research on green skin spores.
Although just three months is not enough for the research to make great progress, Abathur still made a big breakthrough in terms of deconstruction.
This is also one of the important reasons why this migration chose to bring Menzoberranzan City in a package.
He didn't want the research to be interrupted. Although the facilities in Menzoberranzan City were not high-end, they were already systematic. It is expensive to rebuild a set out of thin air, no matter what angle it is.
Half-plant, half-animal greenskins are heat-resistant, cold-resistant, and drought-resistant. Farts are produced from special green-skinned species. Farts are then consciously expanded and planted to become the basis for feeding the entire population. This is the nature of greenskins. Food is the paramount necessity of the people.
"How did the Chaos Dwarves come about? Have they conquered the Dark Land?" Hermione was curious about this population.
Kane sorted out his thoughts,
Explained: "Before the human empire was established, the entire old world was an active stage for dwarves. They had an extraordinary obsession, or greed, for mineral products. Along the World's Edge Mountains, they looked for those rich in minerals and Gem veins, the resources needed to mine them."
"During this process, the dwarves established a series of belt-shaped underground kingdoms consisting of a large number of mine strongholds and underground tunnels like jumping grids. As the years passed, the mine strongholds developed into mine formations and dungeons, and The tunnels have also been repaired repeatedly to become corridors and passages.”
"This era of ore-hunting expansion, which is timed by a hundred years, allowed the dwarves to finally reach the north of the dark land, the Falaya Plateau. There, the air is cold and sparse, and the dusty land is full of ancient creatures. The weathered bones are a piece of land similar to an elephant cemetery, where the ancient giant creatures will march and bury their bones after aging."
Hermione rolled her eyes and said, "Sounds like a treasure land that can be used."
Following Kane, Hermione also learned badly, and valued the soul very much. She realized that, as an ancient cemetery, it was a natural habitat for souls, that is, the embryo of hell.
One of the few things that matter to the gods is the soul.
Hermione could imagine that through deliberate development, she could get a powerful soul there, and then drive it to do things like using AI.
One might say, what's the point of that? One or two are silly.
Kane, however, had told her an interesting thing.
Don't look down on those stupid and crude people. From a certain point of view, they are also the embodiment of technology, but this technology comes from nature, and we must learn to make good use of it.
For example, build.
Wouldn’t it be much easier to let those big men undertake basic work such as framework and earthwork for those legendary artificial creations that look like giant halls?
If this is not easy to understand, we can imagine that we drive equipment such as Gundams and robots that are more than ten meters high, or even tens of meters high, to operate.
To giants, it is just an ordinary house, but to ordinary people it is a magnificent creation. Therefore, their stupid size determines their output, and their lack of brains can find a way to solve it.
Moreover, the burial ground is also a natural habitat for souls. If you play with faith, you can create hell.
Hell is like a different kind of prison. Prisoners are actually a very dynamic group, and they can also produce results if they are used well.
Hermione thought, and continued to listen to Cain Daogu:
"On the Falaya Plateau, the dwarves had a disagreement. Many dwarves believed that the land was cursed, as if it had been corrupted by chaos. They felt that the expansion of the ore search could be over, and they should not go deeper into that land."
"However, there are still some dwarves, whether they say they are adventurous or greedy, they refuse to give up halfway. They imagine other people to make a fortune by finding mineral veins."
Kane explained: "For the dwarves, if they can sit on their own mine and establish a mining town, they can be regarded as entering the ranks of the rich."
Celine commented: "Then they can work harder, the mineral resources in the whole world may not be enough."
Kane smiled. Indeed, some people are destined to be busy, and there are not many of them.
Although the lifespan of a dwarf is not as good as that of an elf, it is still very long, and there is nothing wrong with using a hundred years to count it. As for desire, it is easy to become unrestrained because of comparison. We all go on adventures together, and others get rich just because their luck is better than your own (it seems), how can you be reconciled?
It is necessary to persist for a while, maybe the next one is yourself?
He continued to explain: "The dwarves who continue their adventures try to cross the ominous Falaya Plateau and continue to head east. There are indeed groups of mountains waiting for them in front of them. The Mourning Mountains are the thickest mountains in the entire medieval warhammer world. It can be understood like this , similar to West Asia and Central Asia on the earth, but China’s Tibet and Qinghai are also included, all of which are mountains.”
Hermione and the others weighed it in their hearts, and they said that it was really serious.
Kane said: "In such a huge area, there are naturally living creatures. The earliest natives were giants, then ogres arrived there, and then greenskins. According to the calculation of the age, the giants are now in decline. In the next few hundred years, they will continue to be knocked down and eaten by ogres."
Hermione said, "We need those ready-made big guys for construction."
Kane nodded: "Well, yes."
Celine asked: "You didn't mention the dwarves settled in the Mountain of Sorrow just now, because what happened to them?"
"Yes, this matter starts from the year 995 of the Dwarf Calendar. The Dwarf Calendar is calculated after the dwarves built their capital. There is an ingenious relationship with the Imperial Calendar, that is, there is a difference of three thousand years."
Hermione said: "That is to say, add 3000 years to the imperial calendar, which is the dwarven calendar. Now it is about 4136 years in the dwarven calendar?"
"Well, it's like this." Kane continued to explain: "In the year 995 of the dwarf calendar, in the history of the dwarves, there was a major record, 'betrayal', that is, from this year, the dwarves began to write their "Hate The Book."
"The Book of Hatred is a small book dedicated to recording hatred?" Hermione asked again.
Kane smiled: "Understanding is correct. If you have a grudge, you must avenge it, and if you have a debt, you must pay it back. Dwarves are such a single-minded person. It is not easy to resolve grievances with dwarves. Often because of some small misunderstandings, it becomes the reason for the severance of tribes and even races. This is also an important reason for the dwarves to eventually perish, they have no friends."
Hermione said: "It seems worthwhile for us to learn from it."
"Well, indeed, I'm not good at managing friendships. Shafiq basically has no friends in another world."
Hermione shook her head: "It's not that you are not good at management, but that your thinking is to show yourself in a high-profile way, avoid friction, and hurt others. As a result, many people around you gather with impure purposes. It is not easy to pick out friends in such an environment. .”
Therefore, those who understand Kane must also talk about the person next to him. One of the reasons why Kane shows his charisma and high-profile work is that he does not want to hurt people.
No matter which world it is, bullying the weak and bullying the weak are the norm. In this context, being low-key, or even pretending to be cowardly, is indeed easy to cause people to step on it.
Some people like this tune, because they can pretend to be pigs and eat tigers, and they can pretend to be aggressive. Whether I am low-key or not is my business. It is wrong for you to bully me. If you dare to bully me, I will beat you back ten times. You go and call your father Li Gang and Grandpa Big Tiger. Take care of yourself...
Kane doesn't like this idea of fishing and law enforcement. He has no time to argue with those who have bad morals, and he doesn't like to preside over justice at the trivial level of life. sense of accomplishment.
Then be high-profile, if you are a tiger, you should be a tiger, not a pig. In this way, some people will be afraid if their IQ is above the line, and bad things will not happen easily.
But on the other hand, many of those who took the initiative to come over had their own schemes.
Conspiracies don't matter, Kane originally believed that people and people are actually the interaction of interests, and spiritual needs can also be converted into interests. But once the "degree" is over, it becomes a case of treating someone as a winner and trying to "get rich" with him, so many kind people, seeing you as a high-ranking person, they are not willing to come over to avoid suspicion. And those dangling around are naturally able to get along with each other, but it takes time to find these golds in the sand. Kane didn't put time on this.
If you don't put in the time and energy, you can't do anything well. The wives who marry back home are likely to run away with others, let alone others.
Hermione understands all of this. In the future dark HP world, the reason why Hermione and Kane can come together is actually because Hermione accommodates Kane, not the other way around.
Of course, this refers to the emotional aspect.
Hermione knew that Kane was such a person. His way of expressing love is a bit awkward, and at the same time his temper is relatively cold. The result is that it is not easy to walk to him and maintain the emotional temperature.
Because it is easy to be misunderstood, thinking that Kane doesn't care or care, but it is not the case.
It was only after Hermione learned to measure what happened with a grand view of time that she calmed down. This is not easy. Human life is only a few dozen cold and hot, and it is easy to become a mere day and night.
If you look at Kane with this view of time, then it's over, Kane is a heartless person who can't even hang up, let alone promote him, a real bastard. Hermione had been husband and wife with Kane for so many years in her previous life, and she heard the words "I love you" less than 5 times in total, which is almost unheard of in terms of the cultural atmosphere in Europe and America.
On the other hand, Hermione only slowly felt the goodness of Kane after losing Kane.
Kane is sometimes the kind of traditional oriental man who is as deep as a mountain emotionally, not talking about it, but shielding him from the wind and rain.
And Kane did not stop explaining because of the "Book of Hatred". The reason why the dwarves' calendar 995 is critical is because the dwarves don't know that the elves have undergone drastic changes and have been divided into two.
From their vantage point, they saw the elves, who had been friends for more than 2,000 years, suddenly go on a killing spree against the dwarves.
The angry dwarves also carried out indiscriminate revenge, but they failed to identify that most of the people killed by their revenge actions were the high elves of later generations, not the dark elves who really needed revenge.
It doesn't matter, anyway, because of the lack of communication, the mistake just happened like this, and the elf is also stinky enough, completely in the posture of "no matter what happens, I just don't explain, if I want to do it, I will accompany you".
The ambassador of the dwarves came to claim compensation, and the elf king not only failed to explain the difference between the high elves and the dark elves, but also ordered the dwarves to cut off their beards.
This is the greatest humiliation for the dwarves. In 1440 of the dwarf calendar, the dwarf king Gotrek? Take it, and it is still in the hands of the dwarves.
However, the elves were not made of mud, and the dwarves were also seriously injured in this battle.
Long-lived species often have poor offspring, just like dwarves and elves. Therefore, dwarves and elves cannot be judged by the way that human beings will be a hero again after 18 years.
In 1500, it has been restored for 60 years. For humans, the grandchildren have grown up, but for the dwarves, they don't know which mother-in-law is pregnant with their daughter-in-law, let alone the grandson.
This year, a global geological disaster occurred due to the erosion of the power of chaos. And so began the doom of the dwarves...
