Looking forward to another world.

Chapter 1181 The Last Glory

There is also a library in the temple.

This library is not as deeply hidden as the outside forces. Instead, it is set up like a library in a corner on the left side of the temple. Apart from an administrator and ten alchemy dolls responsible for daily cleaning, there is not even a guard.

There was no barrier for protection, nor any secret warning mechanism set up. The temple library was just there in plain sight, and anyone was allowed to enter and browse freely.

Here, except for some books that are listed as banned books because they are too dangerous and are strictly guarded and no one is allowed to read them, the rest of the books such as sword skills books, magic books, historical ancient books, precious documents, etc., have no restrictions and can be read freely.

Obviously, due to the long-standing peace in the Hidden Land and the concepts of ancient magic civilization, the temple staff's awareness of protection and vigilance towards their fellow humans is shockingly low. They are not like those forces in the outside world who guard the precious knowledge to the end.

It is said that even if one is not a member of the temple, once an outsider comes to the temple, as long as he or she is approved by any of the temple's management, he or she can freely enter and exit the temple's library and read any books he or she wants.

Note that the temple management referred to here does not refer to people of high status such as priests, but any clergyman with sufficient qualifications in the temple.

Generally speaking, as long as one stays in the temple for ten years, he or she can at least become a high priest in the temple, managing 10 senior priests, 100 junior priests and 1000 temple knights, becoming the undisputed management of the temple.

In other words, in the temple, one can become a manager simply by accumulating experience. This shows how peaceful the temple is and how peaceful the secluded land is.

There are no external enemies, no wars, and even very few disputes. Naturally, there is no reason to determine one's status based on one's personal performance.

Therefore, there are no less than 400 chief priests in the temple who are able to make some decisions.

Of course, there are fewer bishops and priests of the highest status above the high priest.

At this time, Lige was walking in front of a bookshelf in the temple library.

This bookshelf contains historical records from the ancient magical civilization period, especially the extremely important period towards the end.

Some time ago, this bookshelf was emptied because the priests were investigating the royal history.

But now, all the books on the bookshelf have been put back in their original places, allowing Lige to easily find the book that the high priest told him about.

The name of the book is - "The Last Glory".

This book, which looks very simple and old, records the history of the beginning of the extinction of the ancient magic civilization.

“It seems that quite a few people have read this book.”

Li Ge found that the place where this book was placed was obviously less likely to accumulate dust than the places where other books were placed.

This is a sign that it is frequently visited.

"Yes, as the true heirs of the ancient magic civilization, the people here are most concerned about the causes and consequences of the end of that glorious history."

Lige sighed, reached out and pulled the book out from the bookshelf.

The book is not thick, on the contrary it is a bit thin.

Although what is recorded in it is one of the most important periods of history of the ancient magic civilization, the time it took for the ancient magic civilization to go from the sudden disaster to its complete destruction was obviously not long. Even if the record was detailed, it would be impossible to record it in a thick book.

Li Ge held the book in his hands, calmed himself down, and began to read it.

When he turned it over, Li Ge saw the first sentence.

“No one could have imagined that the disaster would come so suddenly.”

The first sentence of the opening creates a feeling of depression, heaviness and sorrow.

Li Ge paused for a moment, then continued to read.

"The first thing that appeared was an endless black fog that covered the sky and the sun."

"Without any signs or fanfare, it suddenly appeared in Saint-Lancery."

""Without even having time to react, countless people fell into the evil black fog and became completely insane.""

"Then, the whole of St. Lance was in complete chaos."

Saint Lansley was the capital of the kingdom during the ancient magical civilization period and was known as the "Center of the Earth".

In that era, there was only one kingdom in the entire Akashic continent, so the capital of the kingdom of Saint Lansli naturally became the center of the entire kingdom.

There, there is the palace of the Reinnaier clan and the temple dedicated to the "God".

and so……

"This situation is exactly the same as the beginning of the fall of 'that empire' in the Fountainhead World."

"That empire" was like this too. A crack suddenly appeared in the sky above the capital, Mistgo.

In the crack, the King of the Abyss led an endless army of the Abyss and descended directly into Mistogo, marking the beginning of a great war.

Now, Saint Lancery, the only capital of the ancient magic civilization, was suddenly faced with the disaster of national destruction just like Mistgo...

"So-called disasters are really interesting."

Li Ge continued to read while muttering to himself.

"The first thing to fall was not the palace, but the temple dedicated to the "God"."

"The terrible "Lord of Disaster" appeared silently in the temple and attacked the "Gods" we are waiting for."

"Faced with the terrifying power of the "Lord of Disaster", the high priest, second only to the great Queen, could only struggle to hold on, but was unable to protect the "God" from the hands of the "Lord of Disaster." "

"By the time Her Majesty the Queen arrived at the temple, the terrible 'Lord of Disaster' had already captured our 'God'."

Lige frowned tightly.

This history was obviously witnessed and recorded by the people in the temple.

So... it should be absolutely true that "God" fell into the hands of the "Lord of Disaster".

“Her Majesty the Queen tried her best to prevent the “God” from being taken away by the terrible “King of Disaster”.”

“She succeeded.”

"But the 'God' we were waiting for fell into the crack cut by the holy sword and disappeared completely."

That's right.

"God"... or rather the Dimension Cube, fell into the crack cut by the Sword of Moslo in this initial battle and could never be found again.

The holy sword has the power to cut through the world. When she was alive, Euloelle obviously used this power to knock the Dimension Cube down from the hands of the "Lord of Disaster" just now.

But it was also because of the power of the Holy Sword to cut through the world that even the space on the battlefield at that time was cut through and cracks appeared.

The dimensional magic box fell into the crack, and Belluddy, who fell into the gap between planes, disappeared forever.

"Is this why the Dimension Cube disappeared?"

Lige sighed again.

The high priest had already told him about this matter once, but he wanted to know more details, so he came here in person to read the historical records of the past.

"After the disappearance of the God, Her Majesty the Queen also lost the means to travel to another world. After the disaster broke out, she could no longer seek a solution from another world, or seek help or gain more powerful strength."

"The terrible "King of Disaster" caused a big disturbance in Saint Lancery, and then spread a black mist that could corrupt people across the entire continent, turning countless humans into madmen who had lost their minds."

""Fortunately, the light of the holy sword was able to purify the black fog that caused people to fall, and the berserkers were finally saved.""

"But, those monsters that once brought endless suffering to humans have completely become servants of the "Lord of Disaster"."

Li Ge looked at these records which seemed as if someone had witnessed the whole process with their own eyes, and finally restored the history in general.

The "Lord of Disaster" first appeared in Saint Lancery, in the temple dedicated to "God". He wanted to attack "God", but was stopped by Euloaire in her lifetime. Then he went completely berserk and spread terror wantonly across the entire continent.

The black fog can make people lose their minds and become violent, but because the power of the holy sword can exorcise the black fog, humans have not completely fallen.

However, the monsters did not have such ability, and eventually all the monsters on the continent were infected by the black fog and became servants of the "Lord of Disaster".

Then, the "King of Disaster" began to lead the army of monsters and started a war with all the humans led by Euloelle in her lifetime, with the entire continent as the battlefield.

This war led to the extinction of the ancient magic civilization and the death of the last queen of Rainnail, but before she died of exhaustion, she combined the power of everyone and sealed the "Lord of Disaster".

And then…the new history of the continent was born.

The fire species that escaped into the shelter turned it into an ideal secluded place and have lived here for a full 11,000 years. Only a small number of them have ever left and gone to the outside world to reproduce and thrive.

Those people also became the ancestors of humans in the outside world. After multiplying from generation to generation, they created the current Akashic continent.

As for that tragic yet glorious history, no one remembers it except the people in this secluded place.

"When that disaster occurred, the Dimension Cube was already missing."

"So, no matter which ancient ruins you look at, you won't see any subsequent descriptions of the only 'God' worshipped by the ancient magic civilization."

"As early as 11,000 years ago, before the disaster broke out completely, the dimensional demons left this world and disappeared outside the world."

Li Ge began to understand why he got the Dimension Cube.

"It should be because I came to this world suddenly, and before entering this world, I encountered the Dimension Cube that was lost outside the world, so the Dimension Cube drilled into my mind, right?"

Li Ge just felt that all this was as if it was destined.

It just so happened that when I came to this world, I encountered the dimensional cube that was lost outside the world.

It just so happened that Liz returned to this world, just at the same time when he came into this world.

Dimensional Cube...

Reinnayer...

There is indeed a close connection between the two.

This connection spans several eras, across distant time and history, and can be traced back to the era of human origin.

but……

"The black fog that can drive people crazy..."

Li Ge's eyes flashed.

“Is it really the breath of the abyss?”

The connection between the ancient magic civilization of the Akasha continent and the fall of "that empire" in the Source World can be seen in all aspects.

"The 'King of Disaster' that caused the destruction of the ancient magic civilization is undoubtedly related to the abyss of the Source World. It can even be said that the other party is an abyss creature."

Therefore, it can control the breath of the abyss, turning people into infected people and making them lose their sanity. Only the power of the holy sword can restrain it.

Therefore, it can completely control the monsters in the entire continent, because monsters in the Source World also have the possibility of degenerating into abyss creatures.

only……

"Inflicting heavy damage to the previous king who retreated to the Akasha Continent..."

"The disasters that occurred at the same time..."

"The source of the disaster comes from the abyss..."

"But the previous king...even his soul has been corroded and polluted..."

Connecting all the clues together, Li Ge finally understood the truth of the whole matter.

The demise of the ancient magic civilization, the final creator, turned out to be that person...

"Ugh……"

Li Ge sighed for the third time, stuffed the book in his hand back onto the bookshelf, and turned to leave.

In the library, many people from the temple were also flipping through books. Some were so focused that they didn't notice Lige's presence at all. Others, after seeing Lige, either bowed slightly or gave him unfriendly looks.

Li Ge ignored these people and left the library and went outside.

Here, there was another person waiting for him.

"Has it been confirmed?"

The high priest looked at Li Ge who came out of the library and asked softly.

"Yes." Li Ge nodded and said calmly: "Next, please take me to that place."

Just now, the high priest not only told him about the disappearance of the dimensional cube, but also told him another thing.

"Although the 'God' has disappeared, Her Majesty the Queen accidentally left something behind during the battle with the 'Lord of Disaster'."

“Those things were eventually brought here along with our ancestors who came to the sanctuary.”

"Are you sure you want to go check it out?"

The high priest asked.

"Yes." Li Ge nodded again and said, "Take me to see it."

"Perhaps we will return empty-handed?" the high priest reminded: "So far, no one has ever entered there."

"It's okay." Li Ge turned his head and looked outside. He seemed to have sensed something and said, "I should be able to get in there."

"After all... I have the key."
