Chapter 62 Human Overview

  "The human world, from the time of recorded history, is over 2 million years ago. At that time, we called it the era of the gods' war. In this era, the gods were divided into two factions: light and darkness. The light faction was led by the god of light, which included the main gods such as the goddess of life, the earth goddess, the wind system's main god, the thunder system's main god, the fire system's main god, the water system's main god, the war main god, and the natural main god. The dark faction was led by the god of darkness, which included the Titan main god, the undead main god, the thief main god, and the dragon god. These two factions' main gods do not know why they have been entangled in a struggle for reasons unknown."

  Laurance sat in the small room assigned to him by Meteor, facing Meteor and Chun Tian who were sitting beside him, talking about human history. After returning from the Mercenary Guild, Meteor had developed a strong curiosity about humans, so as soon as they arrived at the tavern, he asked Laurance to tell him.

  Lao Leng was looking at the two little ones staring curiously at him, and he couldn't be happier. These past few days following Xiao Liu Xing and the others had been a blow to his confidence, especially the medical skills of Xiao Liu Xing and Xiao Chun Tian, which made him green with envy. Now he had finally found an opportunity to redeem himself.

  "There are times when you're anxious too" thought Laborious as he slowly drank water, secretly thinking to himself. Of course, he didn't dare let these two little ancestors wait anxiously either. After these days of contact, he had completely figured out the personalities of these two super kids.

  Xiaochun Tian is a super strong, cute and mischievous kid, a standard kid who can be easily won over with a little coaxing. Xiaoliu Xing, although having the face of a kid, has a very mature personality and a relatively calm temperament, but lacks a bit of life experience.

  He is kind-hearted, but only to those who are kind-hearted. To his enemies or people he doesn't like, he shows no mercy. From various signs, it can be 100% confirmed that the recent slave market was destroyed by him! Moreover, some missing people must have been eliminated by him, leaving no trace behind!

  He stayed there for a long time, and Laurence was very clear about the situation inside, with at least 200 people! They were all cleaned up, which is quite ruthless. Of course, Laurence was mentally prepared, but he didn't go to verify like Little Meteor, that's really looking for trouble.

  Apart from this, he also discovered that Xiaochun Tian was Xiaoliu Xing's reverse scale, and took great care of her. Whatever Xiaochun Tian said, he would agree to it, and wouldn't let anyone bully her, or else they would definitely be unlucky. On the street, he had seen it happen several times - someone would accidentally bump into Xiaochun Tian while walking, and immediately Xiaoliu Xing would use his inner strength to counterattack and send them flying, making them fall flat on their faces.

  Although it's not a big deal, she'll definitely have to rest in bed for several days! You say on this busy street with people coming and going, getting knocked down is pretty normal, but they still want her to stay in bed for several days. Those people are also something else, with so many people on the street you wouldn't hit anyone, but they just had to knock into a little girl, it's really unlucky. Of course, after that incident, Laurie accompanied them shopping, always keeping at least 5 meters away from Xia Chun Tian!

  Laurice pretended to moisten his throat with water, then continued: "It's said that in that era, the Sacred Steps were like dogs and the Divine Steps were like cows, everywhere. That war was the stage for the main gods and the gods, and both the Sacred Steps and the Divine Steps were cannon fodder."

  Qualifications for consecutive wars of seven ranks and below are not available! That battle lasted for tens of millions of years, fighting to the point of darkness, the situation was extremely tragic, the gods and saints fell one after another, and then the high-ranking warriors of the seventh and sixth ranks took the stage. It is said that the Dark Continent and the Bright Continent were originally a large continent, but they were affected by that war and split into two!

  It's not just that, the two continents were originally very fertile lands, but after experiencing that war, many places became wastelands and couldn't be inhabited by humans. Moreover, the human population also drastically decreased, it is said that only one in a thousand survived." Laurice sighed as he spoke.

  "What happened to stop that war? What about those gods? Where did they all go? Are they all dead?" Little Spring asked Laurus with curious eyes. Laurus smiled after hearing her words and said, "How can gods die? They are all in the divine realm now, just not coming down. Think about it, if all the gods were dead, what would be the point of praying to them? How could we still borrow their power to fight? But that war really is unknown how it ended, there's no record on the entire continent, it's as if suddenly all the gods vanished."

  They didn't hear how the war ended, and both Xiaoliuxing and Xiaochuntian were disappointed. Xiaoliuxing didn't show it, but Xiaochuntian's face was written all over with disappointment. "Are all the gods in the realm of the gods? Are they still fighting there? And where is this realm of the gods?" Xiaochuntian asked two more questions that made Laborious' newly established sense of superiority disappear like a burst bubble.

  Xiaochun Tian asked two questions, he didn't know either. He couldn't despise Xiaochun Tian, so he could only shake his head in frustration: "I don't know this either, I've just heard that there are two gods in the divine realm, light and dark, each in a different divine realm. As for where the divine realm is? I think even the gods themselves can't explain it clearly."

  "Oh, you don't know either? What happened afterwards?" Xia Chun Tian's face fell after hearing his words. Lao Rui Si directly filtered out Xia Chun Tian's first sentence and continued: "All the gods disappeared from the mainland, humans and other races' 6th rank and above strongmen all died in battle, only mid-level warriors were left on the mainland, but the beast tribe's physical body is many times stronger than humans, plus they have the help of powerful dragon tribe, don't know about the situation on the Dark Continent"

  "But on the Bright Continent, humans were once ruled by the Beastmen for tens of thousands of years! This also includes the Elves and Dwarves who were initially in the same camp as humans. They too had been slaves to the Beastmen. However, because the Elves are naturally born magicians, although they are small in stature, their powers are very strong, so at that time the Beastmen didn't dare to be excessive, only imprisoning them without truly treating them as slaves. Humans were the most miserable, with people being tortured to death by the Beastmen every day, or being killed and eaten."

  "Ah, the beast tribe still eats humans? And what do the elves look like? Are they very good-looking?" Xia Chun Tian heard this and exclaimed in surprise, interrupting Lao Rais' speech. Hearing Xia Chun Tian's exclamation, Lao Rais' heart tightened, afraid that she would ask another tough question. Until he finished listening, he secretly let out a sigh of relief. The first one wasn't even a question, as for the second one, he had traveled across the continent before and happened to have seen elves! "Many tribes of the beast tribe are cannibalistic, such as the wolf tribe and the leopard tribe."

  As for the spirits, there are two kinds: one is the natural spirit and the other is the half-spirit. The natural spirit is only about this high (about 20 cm) with transparent wings. "Different systems of spirits have different hair colors," Laurus said while gesturing with his hand to demonstrate the height. "Spirits are born with a pair of wings, and the higher their strength, the bigger and more numerous their wings."

  Moreover, whoever makes a contract with them can greatly increase their magical intimacy, which is of great help to their own magical cultivation. Half-elves look almost the same as humans, except for an extra pair of wings and large, pointed ears. And half-elves are all very handsome because they have elven blood.

  And they're all naturally talented marksmen." Little Meteor looked at the triumphant Lorris, thinking about his tense expression just now, and felt a little amused. Little Spring's eyes lit up after hearing his words, but it was unclear what she was thinking in her heart.

  Laurice didn't know that Little Meteor was secretly laughing at him, and seeing Little Spring concentrating on listening to his story, he cleared his throat twice, regained his composure, took two sips of water, and continued to talk about human history: "During the period when humans were enslaved by the beast tribe, if it weren't for humanity's strong reproductive power, they would have been extinct long ago. Due to a large number of powerful individuals dying in wars, many cultivation methods and high-level magic were lost, and for a very long time, no more powerful individuals emerged."

  "This situation lasted for tens of thousands of years, until the emergence of a super genius among humans - Saint Paul. Kai, who relied on his own intelligence and wisdom to create a top-level martial art, secretly cultivated it to the holy level without the beast tribe's awareness! At the same time, he also taught that martial art to others around him, creating dozens of high-level warriors. After becoming a saint, he secretly reached an agreement with the spirit tribe to jointly resist the beast tribe, and he and his dozens of high-level warriors all made contracts with nature spirits, becoming super masters of magic and martial arts!"

  He then led the humans to defeat the beast tribe and the powerful dragon tribe, who only fought with their bodies, with the help of dozens of high-level warriors and the Elf tribe. The beast tribe was driven all the way to the northernmost part of the mainland, above the Magic Beast Forest, where the Magic Beast Empire is now located. The dragon tribe itself fled to an island in the Sea of Desire to recover and rebuild. However, because dragons love gold coins but cannot manufacture them themselves, they often still come to the mainland to cause trouble and are caught by humans, becoming mounts, which is also the origin of the current Dragon Knights.

  He took a deep breath, and then continued: "After humanity's victory, the strong one established an empire and became the sole ruler of humanity. From that time on, the continent officially used the 'Holy Paul Era', abbreviated as 'Holy Era', which has been in use ever since. From the day Emperor Kai ascended to the throne, this year is Holy 70354. People remember Emperor Kai by calling the last day of every year 'Paul's Day', symbolizing that Emperor Kai brought humanity into a new spring."

  "At that time, humans, nature spirits, and dwarves coexisted peacefully, making the entire continent seem very peaceful. However, this situation only lasted for tens of thousands of years. By then, the first batch of powerful humans had long since passed away, and after such a long period of rest and recuperation, humans had made great progress in all aspects, including greed. Many people tried to capture nature spirits by force to establish contracts for martial arts dual cultivation, although most failed, but some succeeded."

  "The Nature Spirit King was incredibly powerful, but there were just too many humans. Many of his moves couldn't be defended against, so for the safety of his people, he took all the nature spirits and left the human world, finding a forest to settle in. He also brought the half-spirits with him. And he forbade his people from entering the human world, which is why it's now very rare to see a nature spirit. Only half-spirits can still be occasionally seen."

  The human world soon fell into civil war after the departure of the spirits, and was divided into several countries. Since then to now, no one has been able to unify all of humanity again. After many wars, humans have become what they are today: five powerful nations and hundreds of small principalities. The five largest nations are: the Warrior Empire, the Laine Principality, the Magic Principality, the Light Empire, and the Commercial Union.

  The human world, apart from resisting the invasion of the Dark Continent a few times in this process and counter-invading the Dark Continent several times, has basically had no major wars, and such wars have not occurred for nearly 3,000 years. Moreover, every 20 years, the Dark Continent and the Bright Continent hold an opposing match. In fact, this is a kind of covert struggle. This competition was held more than 10 years ago, I heard that our side lost.

  However, in the past decade or so, many young and powerful individuals have emerged on the Radiant Continent, with reputations loud enough that even a slave like himself knew of them. It's said they're all above Saint-level." The last sentence was Laus' own conclusion.

  With a look of disdain, Laurie continued: "Humans are growing rapidly in such a large environment, and geniuses are constantly emerging in various fields. Although humans have not yet reached the strongest holy rank like dogs or godly rank like cows, there are still many holy ranks, and even godly ranks are no longer rare. It is well-known that there are 5 law gods and 7 war gods among the 12, and secretly, many families hide their own godly strongholds!

  "By the way, humans are actually gods, and their strength is divided into 1 to 9 layers, with the 9th layer being equivalent to a four-winged angel. There aren't even three of such strong individuals on the entire continent! I was at my peak, I was a god at the 4th layer." Lorris said this with a smug expression, but was directly ignored by Xiaoliu.

  "The human world is indeed where the strong are like clouds, and I still need to work hard." Little Meteor concluded in his heart after hearing this. At this moment, his heart was filled with fighting spirit.
