Chapter 269 Conception of 'The Age of Dawn'

"First of all, it's about the plan of the ice elves." With a wave of his sleeve, the map screen behind him collapsed, and then a huge picture was re-condensed, in which several white ice ships were floating on the sea.

"The reason is that some people have seen the ice elves' ships cast spells in the North Sea, causing changes in the sky."

"Although the ice elves come from the same source as us, since they went to the small continent in the north, they have not formally communicated with each other for nearly a thousand years, and the relationship has gradually faded and become unfamiliar."

"For this reason, several colleagues and I had to go to the north to verify in person."

"There are many sea beasts in the North Sea. Since the mutation occurred, these sea beasts have woken up from the bottom of the sea, and now they are an important factor blocking the trade between the two continents."

"Because the few of us have small goals, we managed to pass through the complex currents and vortices to reach the northern continent." When speaking of this, the elves below also focused seriously. It seems that everyone is very concerned about the separated elves in the north. The family is very interested.

"I learned from the conversation with the ice elves that they are actually affected by the climate environment. Now a large number of icebergs in the northern continent have slipped and melted from the mountains. so that those glaciers will stabilize and stop melting."

"I think that may be the reason for the misunderstanding between the two sides."

"Although the ice elves did carry out a large-scale cold wind technique, even so, this level is far from being able to create an image in the north of the empire thousands of miles away, not to mention affecting such a wide area."

"So this conjecture is not enough."

"The second conjecture is about some powerful mythical beast."

"Because the ocean area is much larger than the ground, it is difficult to say whether it will breed some special extraordinary species, or even fantasy creatures, and in the Eastern Continent, there are a few exotic beasts that can affect a large area of ​​climate change, so that in the past it was People are treated and worshiped as gods.”

"Actually, when it comes to this point, it is necessary to mention that the unique dragon vein system of the Eastern Continent is different from the natural one. With the blessing of the dragon vein, the magic power of the alien beast can indeed change the world by infiltrating the dragon vein, causing various disasters or changes. ."

"However, this is the result of the assistance of the dragon veins. If you remove these and let such exotic beasts travel overseas, you will lose such power. This is why the sages of the ancient East would slay monsters, drive mountains and seas, and Many exotic beasts were swept away from the Eastern Continent, so that the world entered a period of peace."

"If the cold disaster in the north of the Western Continent is really caused by a powerful alien beast, then the first thing to prove is that the Western Continent also has a dragon vein structure similar to the East, which is actually negative."

"Why I deny it is not my personal guess and observation, but from the oldest records in the clan, which were copied from the records of the Giant King's Court."

"In the old days of giants and dragons, the giants had secret techniques on how to target and destroy the dragon veins, and naturally they also had their means of exploration. During the years of fighting between the two sides, even if there were dragon veins in the Western Continent, they would have been destroyed long ago. And Now we use these secret techniques to search, and we have also found no large-scale flow of mana or magic."

"So, this conjecture is also invalid."

"In the end, it is the conjecture that this is the punishment of the gods or a precursor to the extinction of the world."

"Unfortunately, we are only mortals, and we have always been powerless about how to spy on the gods, but just from the scene of the change in the world more than ten years ago, if the gods want to destroy the world, there is no need to be so cumbersome and troublesome."

"The two crowns are far more powerful than we thought. When the horn of destruction sounded, I could even feel the wailing and trembling of the world. It was far from being smooth and silent now."

After saying this, the elves below were immersed in its huge message for a while, and the scholar stopped for a while, took a sip of water, and stood for a while, waiting for everyone to digest.

"Now, after denying these three mainstream conjectures, it's time to start talking about our new discoveries."

"Actually, when the cold disaster occurred in the north, many changes also took place on the northern continent and ocean."

"As I said before, on the continent where the ice elves are located, many icebergs have even begun to melt, revealing the bare dark rocks below, floating ice floating on the sea, and some sea beasts have also risen from the bottom of the sea and become restless. , blocking trade by sea."

"These all show that this cold disaster is not the whole, but a corner of the current climate change environment in the world."

"Although the eastern border, which is close to the Emerald Forest, is close to the sea, in the past ten years, it has also experienced a lot of drought, and the rainfall has decreased year by year. Although it is not enough to cause a drought, many rivers have gradually become smaller, and some remote villages have Feeling especially."

"Why didn't these attract attention? It's probably because people from many villages are now gathering in small towns and cities, and fewer and fewer people stay in the villages, so even if they are affected, they can still live, so they are not affected by others. care."

"In addition, thanks to the accumulation of many years in the Eastern Region, each lord has some full-time gardeners. With their help and the innovation of today's technology, many deep water wells have also been established one by one, which stabilized the situation and did not cause major disasters. The problem."

"It's just that such means may become more and more limited, and the drought in the eastern border will become more and more severe, until it finally becomes prominent, causing widespread famine."

"In the interior of the empire, because of the cold disaster in the northern region, we are exhausted. If there is turmoil when the eastern region collapses, then we forest elves may not be able to survive alone and live in the forest."

"Unfortunately, even in the end, we can't determine the truth of this cold disaster, but we can

What is certain is that this will be a disaster that will last for a long time, and we all need to prepare for the future. "

"Tough times are coming, and this time will be a more severe test, both for humans and for us elves."

"This is the end of my speech. I hope everyone can gain some inspiration or help from it, and find the real way to solve this disaster."

Finally, the scholar put one hand on his chest, bent over and saluted, and slowly walked down the steps.

There was a long silence in the hall. No doubt, the speech just now had a huge impact on people, and it also caused many people's mood to drop instantly.

This world is getting worse and worse.

Originally full of interest, thinking of sitting and watching the changes in the external war, but the mentality of being still at ease was instantly broken, and a cold fog of pessimism filled the hearts of everyone.

The pictures and words they just saw echoed in the minds of many elves, so that no one was listening to the results published by the later scholars, and everyone's attention remained on the future. uneasiness and assumptions.

Until then, an elf man dressed in gorgeous satin came onto the stage.

"Papapa——" A crisp applause sounded from his hands.

"I'm sorry for waking everyone up from their sadness. I think everyone is like me. I'm very worried about the future scene. The cold disaster is linked to the drought. , people will be surprised and panic." This man familiarly outlines and draws out the emotions in everyone's heart.

"So, in order to cope with the arrival of that day, we need to prepare in advance."

"And the technology newly discovered by me and a group of colleagues will surely give you some ideas..." As he said, he rang the bell, and several elf waiters put a huge oil painting on the high platform and displayed it in front of everyone.

It was a clear blue sky, white rolling clouds, and beautiful floating buildings looming in it, and some aircraft could even be seen shuttling in it.

"Thanks to the archaeological boom after the mutation, many remote and even forgotten relics have been excavated, and some past technologies and scenes are presented to us again, and there is a part about the establishment of a floating city."

"We still don't know why the ancients left the earth to live in the sky, but it is conceivable that there are disasters and dangers that are insurmountable for ordinary people on the earth, which forced them to leave and build cities and even countries in the sky."

"Now that the disaster is about to be staged in the Ivar world again, why don't we follow the ancients in advance and restore the glorious era in the sky again."

"There, without being affected by cold disasters, and without worrying about heavy rain and snow, we can float freely, choose suitable latitudes, and even live in mild locations permanently, so as to get through difficult times and allow ourselves and our clan to survive. , freed from the contentious wars of the earth, and attained true freedom."

The elf man stood under the huge oil painting and spoke in a sigh or even singing tone, depicting a beautiful world to everyone. The beautiful future composition attracted the attention of many elves, allowing them to step out of their pessimism and immerse themselves in this wonderful vision.

"This is not just the revival of the twilight era, it will also represent the beginning of a new era, so please let me call it with a word that corresponds to the twilight, but is full of hope and beauty—"
