Chapter 44: A Replay of Civilization
Lugh was almost completely stunned. His eyes widened as he looked at the ruins of the G.o.ds around him in disbelief.
What kind of ancient G.o.d’s ruins were they? They were clearly the ruins of a large city in the era of technology.
Lugh saw collapsed gla.s.s buildings and all kinds of concrete and steel buildings.
Inside the carriage, he was shocked.
In his subconscious mind, he had always thought that this was another world. He had never thought that this would be earth.
After leaving the Simon Empire and seeing such a situation, his thoughts immediately pulled back to that era.
If the English of the rune-masters in this world could be considered a coincidence, then the ruins of these modern cities showed many problems. Runes were the words of the ancient G.o.ds in this world. Perhaps for the rune era, the era of technology that Lugh came from was the ancient era.
At the same time, Lugh also remembered some information about this world. The education system of this world was similar to the era of technology.
There were primary schools, junior high schools, high schools, but universities became rune schools.
This t.i.tle came from the era of technology.
These signs indicated that this was very likely the Earth.
However, it was no longer Lugh’s era, but Earth many years later.
In his mind, he couldn’t help but think of a sci-fi movie he had once seen, “Time travel to the future.”.
He could also be considered to have traveled to the future, right?
It was just that unlike the content of the movie, he had woken up and was already in the future.
However, in the movie, because the Earth’s population was too large and resources were insufficient, causing a series of social problems, in order to solve the problem of resources, a scientist developed a time travel machine. The protagonist then traveled to the future with the time travel machine.
The future was already different from the past. Not only did it not have the dazzling technological civilization that the protagonist imagined, but it went back to the primitive early human society. There was no civilization there.
Even if there was no technological civilization, there would not be a systematic civilization in the future. However, a different culture was born. Some humans had powerful spiritual power and could use spiritual power to interfere with reality.
These people who possessed strong spiritual power were treated as G.o.ds and worshipped by humans.
Although the content of the movie and the rune world were very different, they had one thing in common.
When the technological civilization was highly developed, it did not take a step further to form an interstellar civilization and cross the galaxy. Instead, at the peak of the civilization, the human desire also reached its peak and a great war broke out. In the end, due to the battle formation, the human race.., for a time, civilization had regressed to the era of primitive society.
However, in the movie, it was still in the early stages of the birth of civilization. Meanwhile, the rune world had already produced a systematic and powerful civilization, the rune civilization!
When he thought of this, Lugh, who had come from the era of technological civilization, felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.
Although he was not in that era, he still had family and friends that he cared about in that era.
Unfortunately, thousands of years had pa.s.sed between them.
Moreover, he had never expected that the incomparably great technological civilization would actually become extinct.
“Young Master, are you alright?”
Clare looked at Lugh with a somewhat sad expression and came to his side to look at him with concern.
“I’m fine.”
Lugh smiled and patted her little head. “I’m just thinking about the past.”
As he said that, he was still thinking about things.
In the past, even in an era where technology was extremely advanced, there were many things that could not be explained with technology. For example, Atlantis at the bottom of the sea. It was said that the people living in Atlantis were all demiG.o.ds and had a highly developed civilization, everyone had a long lifespan and a strong body.
But for some unknown reason, they had disappeared from the mainland overnight.
There were also the tombs of the first emperor of Qin in China, the pyramids in Egypt, the Mayan Civilization in America, the Bermuda Triangle, and many other unexplainable phenomena.
At that time, the G.o.ds that humans believed in were; the G.o.ds in the west, the Buddha in the east, Odin, the father of the G.o.ds in northern Europe, Zeus, the Lord of the G.o.ds in Greece…
At that time, there were also records of G.o.ds on Earth, but no one had seen them with their own eyes.
If it had been in the past, Lugh might have thought that these were all imaginary illusions, but now he could accept such an idea.
The once technological world was treated as an ancient civilization, and the humans who mastered the power of technology were treated as ancient G.o.ds by the rune world.
This proved that before the technological civilization, industrial civilization, and feudal civilization, there should have been even greater civilizations. It was just that this civilization had also developed to the peak, and in the end, it had died out for unknown reasons.
It was just like the technological civilization had gone into decline due to the problem of resources.
Moreover, Earth had a history of several billion years. Perhaps there was more than one such ma.s.sive civilization, and perhaps there were many such civilizations, but they all died out one by one in the long river of history.
Civilizations continued to perish, but they also continued to be reborn, as if they were in a cycle of reincarnation.
The current rune era was the beginning of a new civilization, and this was a replay of another civilization.
Why did this happen? Why did different civilizations end up dying?
Could it be that there was some great secret?
He didn’t know, but his heart was already filled with fear.
Was the destruction of these civilizations a natural development, or was there a mysterious force controlling it from behind?
If the second reason was the case, how terrifying and powerful would the owner of the power be?
“Fix yourself on the spot!”
A voice came from outside, pulling Lugh back from his thoughts.
