Chapter 962： echo (2/2)

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Dragon God's voice came from the opposite side. "It's still early, we can talk more."

Gao Wen thought about it and sorted out a few questions he had thought before coming to Tallond, and asked: "About the'tide chaos' in the ancient times and the tower northwest of Tallond" , Can you tell me about it?"

"It depends on which aspect you want to listen to," Dragon God nodded. "I will try my best to answer."

"As far as I know, the counter-tide empire went astray because of the wrong contact with the knowledge left by them-according to the clues we have found so far, the main problem at the time was the "classifying knowledge as a miracle" . Is the Infernal Tide Empire deified the legacy of the person? Is it because of the war between the Dragon Clan and the Infernal Tide Empire?"

"Roughly true," the Dragon God nodded. "The Legacy of the... It's something that is too advanced for the race still trapped in the earth, especially a million years ago, a lot of "legacy" still The age of powerful power. That mortal civilization suddenly gained knowledge and power far beyond their understanding, and their rulers could not explain the principles behind those things to the people, nor could their scholars reproduce the logic behind those heritages. So it became necessary to deified it.

"People blame miracles on things that are far beyond their understanding. This is a trap that many mortal civilizations can easily enter.

"The war between the dragon and the counter-tide empire... it is because of their "deification" that they are creating new, uncontrollable ideological products, and the war itself... is actually disgraceful to both parties."

"It's disgraceful to both parties?" Gao Wen instantly smelled the gossip and subconsciously leaned forward. "What does that mean?"

Dragon God glanced at Gao Wen, and said without hesitation: "It's very simple, because it was the Dragons themselves who first cultivated the tide empire and guided the heritage of their contacts..."

Gao Wen: "...Dragons themselves?!"

"That was an unsuccessful attempt, a reckless and bold "breakthrough plan"," Dragon God said lightly. "It happened many, many years ago-at that time, the'Eternal Cradle' has not been completely stabilized, Tal It hasn’t been long since Lund put on the chain. Many dragons still maintain a strong free will and look forward to the future. Under this impulse, the dragons began to seek ways to break the situation from the outside."

Gao Wen frowned: "Raise a mortal force independent of Tallond, let them absorb the power left by the absorber, quickly become stronger, and then break Tallond's...'cradle'?"

When he said this, his eyes were a little weird, because he and Dragon God both knew what it meant to "break the cradle", but the expression on Dragon God's own face was more indifferent than that of Gao Wen, so this strange topic continued. .

"It seems that this is not a mature plan, but they still carried it out hopefully," said Dragon God, shaking his head. "At that time, the counter-tide empire was still very weak, and it was so weak that it became an adult. Dragons can easily guide the extent of their development, so the dragons have lost their caution... they think everything can be controlled, at least for a long time, everything can be controlled by the dragons.

"And what happens afterwards should be easy to imagine-arrogance is the biggest original sin. The dragons believe that the "all in control" counter-tide empire has not been reconciled from the beginning to become a tool of another race, the dragons intervene and guide Instead, they intensified their spirit of resistance and rebellion, and caused the situation to deteriorate much faster than expected. The tide was out of control, they were secretly developing many technologies, secretly developing many denominations, they cracked the secret arsenals left on the ground by the people, jumping Powerfully.

"Before Tallond responded, the'tide tide' had completed its transformation. They quickly became an extreme xenophobia, dragon-eating, powerful military empire, and most importantly, they were a'theocratic empire.'

"Excessive reliance on the heritage of the Ones and the deified behavior directly led to the uncontrollable deification of the entire Counter-Tide Empire. Even if a few of them were aware of the dangers, they could not stop this process. Believers consider themselves to regard the dragon clan of Tallongde as a "heresy" of the betrayal and stolen heritage, and all this...contrary to Tallonde's original plan.

"Therefore, the battle against tide broke out."

Gao Wen opened his mouth and organized the language after a few seconds: "...Is it all your tacit consent?"

"you could put it that way."

"Why?" Gao Wen couldn't help but ask, "Did you not find the risk?"

Dragon God's voice was low: "The dragons of Tallond didn't find it, so I didn't find it--and even if I found the risk, as long as the dragons' cultivation of the counter-tide empire did not violate Tallund's tradition "The trend of thought", without triggering "cross the boundary", I can't stop all this."

Gao Wen thought of the "two stories" that Dragon God had just told himself-at this moment, he had a deeper understanding of the metaphorical rules behind those two stories.

"That war destroyed the entire counter-tide empire, ended a season of civilization before the advent of the Demon Tide, and severely hit Tallond," the Dragon God continued. "The damage caused by the war itself is not terrible. What is terrible is the blow to confidence and belief-the entire Tallond society has been greatly shocked, and this shock was almost immediately reflected in the dragons' group thoughts..."

Gao Wen reacted quickly and his eyes widened: "This also forms a new'lock'?"

"In a normal civilization, this short-lived, lack of accumulation of group emotions is really nothing. However, the gods of the dragon have become one, and the interaction between gods and humans has been unprecedentedly strengthened, so that they have no strong , The group's spiritual fluctuations will quickly produce a wide range of echoes in the trend of thought, and then-the echo becomes a new lock.

"For more than 1 million years since then, the dragon has never interfered in the world outside of Tallond, and even the number of dragons leaving Tallond every year is strictly limited.

"They can't reveal too much information about the tide wars to other civilizations, they can't reveal their secrets at will, when other civilizations contact the heritage of the people, they must first find ways to recover those'dangerous objects'... these are all in the same year The "reflection echoes" produced by the dragon tribes after the tide rebellion, these echoes become mandatory "locks", and any dragon tribe must unconditionally obey the constraints they bring, even after 10,000 years, 100,000 years, hundreds Ten thousand years... Even if the legacy of the people is completely wiped out by time, even if no one remembers what the'tide tide empire' specifically refers to, the dragon family must always abide by it."

Gao Wen listened in amazement, and suddenly couldn't help but say: "But when Melita mentioned to me to recover certain hazardous materials or block certain information, she just said that it was a superior order, it was'enterprise regulations'... …"

"So, at least it sounds better."
