Chapter 627 Common Sense of This World

Overall, it's a world that resembles a medieval European setting.

The level of civilization here is still at the level of ancient times. There are no electrical appliances such as computers and mobile phones, no means of transportation such as cars and airplanes, and even energy such as electricity has not been discovered.

Basically, the entire world is in an era where transportation relies on horse-drawn carriages, farming relies on cattle and sheep, lighting relies on oil lamps, and there is no entertainment at all.

The reason why it is said to be "basically" is, of course, that there are very few countries in this world that have science and technology that are completely inconsistent with the background of the times and are too advanced.

But those are just a few exceptions. Ninety-nine percent of the countries in the world are currently in the feudal period. Kings and nobles control all domestic rights, which is no different from the general medieval European background.

But even so, this world is also obviously different from the ordinary world.

That is things and knowledge that would definitely be hidden in the Xingyue world, such as magic, alchemy, and monsters, but in this world, they are things that even ordinary people know about and have even encountered.

In this world, only one person knows magic.

Extremely aggressive and irrational monsters can be found almost everywhere in the world.

There are even special professions like [Adventurer] that are dedicated to getting paid by completing commissions.

The contents of the commissions are diverse. General commissions include repelling monsters, obtaining materials unique to monsters, etc. Tasks such as dealing with thieves and escorting merchants are also common, and sometimes there are even wars with hostile countries. They may entrust adventurers with investigation tasks, assassination tasks, etc.

"The most important thing is that this world has had a prophecy since ancient times."

While sorting out the common sense in her mind, Liu Xia said to the two of them: "One year in the future, there will be a disaster that can destroy the world - the wave is coming. If this catastrophic catastrophe is not stopped, the entire world will perish. ."

Perhaps because it was so long ago, the part about waves is actually somewhat unclear.

No one knows what the wave is, no one knows its true identity, and no one knows where it will appear or how it will destroy the world.

All we know is that this wave will appear one year and destroy the world.

“The year mentioned in the prophecy,

It seems like this is the year. "

Liu Xia stood on the edge of the cliff, the sea breeze blowing his hair into the air, and the clothes on his body were rustling. "And my mission this time includes fighting off at least three waves."

That's right.

This is the year when the wave mentioned in the prophecy will come.

The reason why the time is known so accurately is actually because of the existence of a special prop [the dragon-carved hourglass] that can accurately measure the arrival time of the wave.

According to common sense records, the hourglass carved by a dragon can predict the time of the arrival of a wave and provide a warning one month in advance.

As long as the residents of this world believe in the early warning of the dragon-carved hourglass and make preparations in advance, they can at least form a line of defense to block the wave.

It seems that not long ago, Long Carving's hourglass was successfully activated and gave an early warning to the world.

"However, it is probably because the prophecy was too far in advance, so even if the dragon-carved hourglass gave a warning in advance, no one believed that the wave would come."

This is actually a matter of course.

After all, who would easily believe that the end of the world will come?

Even in the modern era where people's wisdom has opened up, I'm afraid not many people really believe that the end of the world will come on time and make preparations in advance, right?

Of course, for the residents of this world, it is indeed unknown whether the wave will come.

But for Liu Xia, the wave is 100% sure to come.

Otherwise, the anonymous spiritual base would not have issued him the task of repelling the wave.

Therefore, there is no need for him to worry about whether the wave will come, as long as he is prepared to meet and repel the wave.

"I see."

Esdeath pondered for a while, and then quickly grasped the key to the problem, "So, when and where will that wave come? How strong will it be? Can we handle it with our current strength?"

Hearing this, Liu Xia pondered and said: "According to common sense, we can only know that the wave will arrive this year at most. Other information such as where it will arrive and how powerful it will be cannot be speculated."

Because no one believed that the wave of world destruction would really come, so although many people knew that the hourglass carved by the dragon was already warning, the specific time warned by the hourglass was not widely disseminated.

And what Liu Xia got was just common sense, which was equivalent to the knowledge that most people knew. He only knew common sense, so of course he didn't know the specific arrival time.

The hourglass carved by the dragon can only predict the time when the wave will arrive. It cannot tell where the wave will come, nor can it calculate the power of the wave.

If you want to know this information, it is better to experience it yourself, so that you can make inferences. However, until now, not even a wave has occurred, so of course no information can be used to deduce it.

But, of course, this didn't work for Lucia——

"The wave will come in ten minutes."

Liu Xia closed her eyes slightly, and when she opened them again, her eyes had turned into a bright gem color, "The location is near the seaside, and if it is powerful...it seems that only some weak monsters will appear. Not worth mentioning."

For him who has future vision, no matter the time of arrival, location, power, etc., nothing can be hidden from him.

The size of this wave is not up to the level of Sesshōin Kiara, so naturally it cannot prevent him from observing it with his magic eyes.

Moreover, even without future vision, Liu Xia knew that the coming first wave would definitely occur near this seaside.

Because the place where he comes every time after traveling through the world is personally selected by the anonymous spirit base. The most accurate time point and location are the most convenient for him to complete the spirit base's mission.

In the past, this was true whether it was in the world of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba or the world of Crimson Eyes. This is also what the anonymous spirit base once told Liu Xia, the rules of every time he travels through the world.

Not to mention the first time now, even for the second and third wave in the future, Liu Xia can use the ability of future vision and testing to know the specific time and place of the arrival of the wave in advance, and make all preparations in advance. .

After his future vision was upgraded to A level, it not only allowed him to accurately see the future within half a day, but also awakened the three abilities of future vision, prediction, future vision test, and the evil eye of death.

It is extremely convenient to use to complete spiritual base tasks.
