Chapter 376: Globe (1/2)
Alex was stunned when he saw the movie scene. 'The world from 600 years ago… looks just like now? How?' he couldn't help but ask himself.
The lady continued speaking. ”There is only one way the world from 600 years ago could possibly be that advanced. That is… right around 600 years ago, something happened that destroyed everything and humanity had to start over.”
”They had to restart civilization all over again, and build themselves until where we are now,” the lady said.
The things she said sounded so outlandish, and yet, not a single person there could counter her with all the evidence there.
”Let's move on,” she said and walked on.
”These are all helmets and armors worn by warriors when the 17 cities were still countries ruled by different factions. The war at that time destroyed a lot of things that should have been kept safe.”
”From what we were able to find out, the experts made an educated guess that the reason more of these cars and vehicles, as well as the other items, doesn't exist, aside from being destroyed in time, is that they were all melted and used during the war,” the lady said.
”Once the war ended, they finally started to mine new metals, and the old ones got discarded.”
”Um… Miss, why aren't these things public knowledge? Why do we have to come all the way to a museum to learn about these things?” a person asked.
”These are public knowledge. It's just that it's too old, and people don't like reading through history. If you dig deep, you can find these all on the internet,” the lady said.
”Now, come along. We have more things to see,” she said and took them along. The tour had already been going on for nearly half an hour, and the woman took them for another 15 minutes tour, explaining the various things.
Alex was surprised to see that history less than 600 years ago was quite neatly recorded. Yet the ones beforehand were not.
'That is very surprising,' he thought. While he did hear that the war was one of the major reasons they had lost most of the history, he still wondered why there weren't other things.
'What about the various landscapes that the developer of the game allegedly learned through here? Where are those texts?' Alex wondered. He did hear about some texts that were in the museum and couldn't wait to see them.
”Here we are. This is perhaps the most important piece of the exhibition in the museum, that was the reason for the deaths of hundreds of people,” the lady said.
Alex looked in front of him and was a little surprised to see what was in front of him. 'Is that…?'
”Isn't that what is at the top of this building?” a student asked curiously.
”Yes,” the lady said. ”This is what is called a globe.”
The lady spun the globe around and showed it to everyone. ”This is supposed to depict how the world of the old people looked like. However, despite how advanced they were at the time; it seems that they believed that the world was round.
