Hundreds of years ago, the doomsday flood sweeping the earth is gradually becoming a legendary story with the passage of time!
At least, among humans, it is.
Life is born short of human beings, for some already exist, have already appeared, with the passage of time, so as to be gradually forgotten. Even if they record clearly in words, they will have a series of doubts about what happened in that year because of the continuous passing of time.
Now, the great floods that happened in those years are just like this among human beings.
Humans, for various reasons, gradually begin to question what happened hundreds of years ago. This is because human civilization at that time was still in the embryonic stage, and there was no mature and sound vocabulary and language. At that time, after the formation of the flood, it swept the whole land at a very fast speed. On the earth, the water is churning, and in the sea, there are also huge waves. In the face of this natural disaster, the fragile rudiment of human civilization has no ability to resist.
Most knowledgeable human beings, at the moment of the flood, are not prepared at all, and do not have the strength to resist. Their death has not only caused the breakdown of human civilization, but also cast a mysterious veil on what happened in those years. Because, after that disaster, the surviving human civilization was extremely broken. There are too many heritages that are completely lost with the death of the relevant personnel. Therefore, after the flood faded, the surviving human simply recorded the impact of the flood through word-of-mouth and stone inscriptions.
However, hundreds of years later, the broken civilization of mankind grows again in ruins. And with the development of civilization, language and vocabulary gradually enriched. Today's human beings, compared with their primitive ancestors hundreds of years ago, the gap between them is not generally large. In addition, there are too few "historical materials" in the relevant records, and the evidence for the existence of floods has gradually disappeared with the passage of time. Therefore, the short-lived human beings, after fermentation for a long time, have gradually disagreed with the existence of the last great flood.
And different from human beings, each of the Forest Elves with a long life can easily live for thousands of years!
Their development in civilization, compared with that of mankind, is undoubtedly far ahead. In addition, the great flood that destroyed the world came outside the city of the elves and was stopped by the enchantment. The surging waves, higher than the city built by the elves, were clearly seen by the elves. Combined with the images recorded by magic, the event of the great flood never disappeared among the elves, nor was it forgotten by the elves.
Magic saved the Forest Elves and gave them plenty of time. Otherwise, the magnificent city they worked hard to build would have been washed away with the flood.
Therefore, at the time when the city states of human beings were established one after another and rose. Human beings are addicted to the wealth brought by trade and enjoy a series of rich products brought by the prosperity of trade. Although the distance between city states is not close. However, with the pace of trade, human commercial activities have already spread to a very broad land. More and more city states have been found, more and more tribes have been found, and the species that also grow in different areas have been known by more and more people with the relationship of trade. And, closely following the development of trade, commercial network has been spread, one by one appeared in each other, far away from each other in the city-state.
In the face of such a rich environment, human civilization also has frequent contacts with different city states. Thus, the long-term development, but also because of the stimulation of trade, leading to human civilization, the speed of progress has become extremely fast. Although there is no magic among human beings, the spread of commercial network makes human civilization in all aspects, with the stimulation of commercial interests, thus having a continuous stream of stimulation and transfusion. The vigorous development of all walks of life has promoted human civilization and activated all the city states in their known world!
Although the number of inhabitants in each city-state is more than 30000 or 50000, and less than 12000. The strength of each other is not equal, but the emergence of trade and the prosperity of Commerce enable every city-state to enjoy the "rich" life brought about by the prosperity of Commerce. With the introduction of new species and sufficient food, the human population began to explode.
In a very short period of time, the number of human population continues to rise. Moreover, the prosperity of Commerce has also led to the evolution of primitive and ignorant human beings. Their wisdom grows with the improvement of civilization. The establishment of all kinds of laws also led to a clearer hierarchy among human beings. With the continuous development of civilization, power and wealth of each city-state. Compared with the rich human city-state, those who have lost their inheritance and degenerated into savages and even nomadic tribes are naturally envious of the huge wealth created by the city-state.
War came naturally.
Similarly, because of the emergence of war, the strength and growth speed of the army have been continuously transfused. Military, has made great progress, at least for today's human beings, the emergence of war, torn the layer of invisible shackles in their hearts. Because of the war, the tribe plundered the city-state, and the city-state defeated the tribe.
Prisoners of war and slavery also followed.
And, with a very fast speed, quickly spread to human beings. The appearance of city-state and slavery made human civilization change. Everyone clearly felt the invisible change of everyone, but there was no change. They don't know how to describe the specific feeling. However, such changes make the human city-state see great benefits.
With the rise of slavery, commercial networks and merchants were not only involved in profiteering. They also began to run the slave trade, and soon became rich because of the slave trade. With the increase of money, the merchants and the city states got huge profits. Therefore, the newly emerged slave trade and slavery began to grow rapidly with the demand of all parties.
Food, vegetables, fruits, wine, livestock, bronzes and people all appeared in the commercial markets of various city states. Business has been rapid development and progress, and began to drive the overall civilization, a big step forward. The vigorous commercial activities and slave trade quickly ignited human civilization, and with a kind of enduring enthusiasm, deeply imprinted in human civilization.
At the same time, the Forest Elves also started to contact with human beings by accident.
Those elves, mages and explorers who go out to explore the world and search for magic resources will naturally not turn a blind eye to what happens to human beings. Although in the process of exploration and travel, they did not take the initiative to contact with human beings. Their existence has not been discovered by human beings. So far, human beings do not know that in a vast and prosperous forest, there is also a city-state, where a group of people live, and they have fundamentally different new races.
This race, in the face of the great flood, survived tenaciously. Their civilization has not suffered any loss, and their population has not suffered much. In their long history, they have developed a unique form of civilization! Moreover, they have been observing human beings in the dark, observing their city states, observing and recording all kinds of things that happened among human beings.
As a result, this group has never been in contact with human beings, but has a clear understanding of human race. Because of the infinite enthusiasm and stimulation brought by commercial activities in the human world, the civilization ignited by them began to have interest.
Although there is business among the elves, no matter in scale, development or activity, it can't be compared with the business activities that have great influence and passion among human beings at this moment. The vitality of human civilization and its subsequent development are activated by the activity of Commerce. But at the same time, their behavior also makes the forest elves begin to pay more attention to them.
Because, the elves from the high prosperity of human business, see a new and has a huge interest in new ideas!
