Hearing Gawain's answer, Tire blinked. She did not speak, but motioned for Gawain to continue speaking.
After all, she doesn’t know much about the human world - although Siren seems to observe the situation on the continent from time to time, and the information is not closed, Tyr himself is obviously not the kind to care. The character of foreign news.
“You should know what happened on this continent seven hundred years ago,” Gawain sighed, and roughly explained the current technological age of mankind. “At that time, the Gondor Empire was the most advanced on the continent. country, but the explosion of the Deep Blue Well caused a great decline in our technology - and due to the non-replicability of the Deep Blue Well and the wave of annihilation of all high-end talents in the ancient empire, our technological decline is far beyond your imagination, we It’s not just technology that’s declining, it’s also social structure and people’s thinking levels. To this day, the level of production technology in all human countries is still what you said, with a few craftsmen and a few magicians working in their own workshops. Or making some handmade products in the laboratory, the idea of industrial mass production can be said to be blank."
After a moment, Gao Wen continued: "The Cecil collar is the only one currently trying. A place to establish an industrial system - I don't know if you can understand the word 'industrial system' that I coined in human common language. In short, I hope to establish a new production and development model. The convenient power of 'magic' becomes popular and becomes a tool that everyone can use instead of a privilege for a few. I hope that on this basis, we can achieve great progress in technology and promote the transformation of production models with technological progress. , I hope to use the power of tools and wisdom to mass-produce industrial products, just like the rune substrates produced on the machine assembly lines in front of you."
As he spoke, he paid attention to Tyr's expression. Change - He saw that the casual expression on the face of the Siren lady had finally faded away. Tire was listening carefully, his eyes became particularly focused, and the end of his beautiful long blue hair even exuded a slight tinge. Particles of light, maybe this is a sign of her happy mood?
After Gawain finished speaking, Tyr blinked and asked seriously: "What happens after this?"
"Abundant living supplies will change Our society, the way people get along with each other, social relations, as well as the laws and class systems above them, will all change," Gawain said calmly, "No doubt, that is what I am pursuing. ."
"Interesting... You are more interesting than I thought..." Tyr swung his long snake tail and circled Gawain (to be honest, this salty fish spirit's walking posture is very good). If she could stop being so embarrassed, her B-level would at least double), "Your ideas surpass those of your compatriots, even those of your compatriots in the so-called 'advanced' empire more than seven hundred years ago. I probably know something about that." Regarding the Empire of Gondor, it was indeed a very powerful human empire with very advanced magic technology, but it was only supported by a natural energy bank.It’s just an illusion. All the civilizations on this continent—even the still powerful Silver Elf civilization—have been incredibly backward. The abundant resources and convenient magic environment on this continent have nurtured you. It has also severely constrained your thoughts, but...there is such an alternative like you on this continent..."
Tear held his chin and made an understatement to all the kingdoms in the entire continent. It was a rather poor evaluation. However, Gawain knew that given the other party’s level of civilization, she was fully qualified to make such an evaluation. This was objective and factual. What was even more pleasing was that he came from Tire. From their attitude, we can roughly guess the development path that the Kraken has taken - it is probably the same as their own.
They should also be using technology to promote the development of productivity and liberating productivity to promote society. The road to progress.
“I have experienced a glorious and developed era, and have seen with my own eyes what advanced civilization looks like. I once led a group of people to work hard to open up territory in the wilderness, hoping to Re-establish that glorious civilization," Gawain breathed a sigh of relief, flipping through the memories from Gawain Cecil, and also flipping through his own memories from the earth, sighing from the bottom of his heart, "Then I After sleeping for seven hundred years, I woke up to find that instead of returning to its glory, this society became even more backward, decayed, and decadent... I couldn't stand this kind of backwardness and decadence, so I naturally wanted to do something, even if it was just To make my life more comfortable, I also have to let society develop. "
"I agree, a lot of technological advancements are just to make it more comfortable for you to sleep in," Tire shook the tip of his tail happily and suddenly asked another question, "But you don't Are you worried that if one day magic really spreads to everyone, and even ordinary people can use magic to resist the rulers, will your rule be threatened? "
Gawain couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "If most of the people were forced to the point where they wanted to use fireball to blow up their lord, then this lord would have died long ago. I have always firmly believed in one thing: if a monarch or lord can only rule his people with violence and oppression, then his rule is not rule at all, because any wolf, tiger or leopard can do the same thing. Same thing.
"As for the consequences of popularizing magic... it may really create new contradictions, but I believe that its benefits will far outweigh the risks. Technology develops through popularization. To obtain more talents, we must allow more people to have access to these technologies, so that there is no threshold or a very low threshold for technological learning and research, so that enough researchers can be generated under a huge population base. Only then can we truly uncover the secrets of the truth in the world, instead of like now, where only a few talented people can use magic, and all their research is wasted on maintaining integrity and improving personal strength... In this way, even if a million years pass, the world will There will only be a few more great magicians in the world. As long as a wave of demons comes over,Even if these great magicians survive, won't human civilization still be gone? Then are these great magicians going to live in the deep mountains and wild forests like savages fighting for territory from wild beasts? "
Tier looked at Gawain intently for a while, then turned his head and looked at the machinery and equipment that were roaring and casting runes. The tip of his tail slapped the floor of the factory unconsciously. After a long time, she suddenly said without thinking: "It would be great if you could wake up a few years ago..."
"What? Gawain heard it, but didn't understand what it meant, "Why would it be better if you woke up earlier?" "
"The great demonic tide is indeed approaching," Tyr suddenly turned his head and stared into Gawain's eyes seriously, "The demonic tide will cause devastating damage to all civilizations. Because of this, we sea monsters They are elemental creatures and are naturally resistant to demonic tides, so they have been able to survive many times, but you humans, who are flesh and blood, cannot escape the 'material reshaping' in this process.
“We have always had a conjecture: If the magic tide is a natural phenomenon, then any natural phenomenon should have rules to follow and principles that can be studied in depth. However, due to some of our own... 'Speciality', we Kraken have not found out what this deep principle and law is until now, but we believe in the correctness of this idea...
"The technological progress and truth exploration you seek The method is in line with our conjecture. I think the route you took may be correct, but... I'm worried that you woke up too late. "
Gawain didn't know what expression to make on his face. Many of his words eventually turned into an awkward and stiff smile. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Don't you think it's very shocking to say these words directly? What? "
"We sirens are used to speaking straightforwardly," Tire's attitude was very calm. "And I am used to being pessimistic first - you can be optimistic. After all, I also said that the magic tide The cycle is not so accurate. Maybe it will be delayed by 1,800 years this time. You or your descendants will figure out the technology to resist the demonic tide, or if your technology makes great progress, you can eliminate the demonic tide in two years. It is not impossible to understand the principle of tide. "
Gawain twitched his lips: "...What you said is too optimistic. I might as well hope that there really is an omnipotent creator in this world. Suddenly the day before the demonic tide broke out, Changing the settings of the world has allowed human civilization to live longer and prosper. "
"Who knows," Tyr shrugged (and the tip of his tail), "The progress of civilization is sometimes unreasonable and illogical. Some races have not been able to see a clear sky for hundreds of thousands of years. In the sky, some races will fall from their peak to the abyss overnight, but as long as they are still alive, they must have some hope. We Siren believe in one thing, that is, as long as we are alive, there will always be something worth looking forward to in life. . ”
Gawain looked at the siren who claimed to be pessimistic with a little surprise. He always felt that her words had deep meaning. However, when he looked carefully, Tyr’s face returned to that kind of look. careless, lazyScattered appearance.
She turned around and continued to observe the operation of the machines curiously, while Gawain smiled and followed to prevent the seafood from affecting the work of the workers in the Rune Foundry.
But at this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the factory gate. Gawain frowned and looked, just in time to see a lightly-armed Cecil combat soldier running in in a hurry.
The soldier trotted all the way to Gawain, hurriedly performed a military salute, and said quickly while breathing heavily: "Sir, there is movement at the door...that door! "
"Door?" Gawain frowned, "Don't be so confused. Take your breath and explain what's going on."
The soldier quickly adjusted himself. After taking a deep breath, he reported his own state: "It's the circular magic door at the bottom of the ancient facility. The soldiers guarding the door reported that it is changing! It seems to be activated!"
"Then The door activated by itself?" Even Gawain was stunned this time. He thought for a moment and then ordered, "Go and notify Hetty, um, and Pitman, and ask them to come over immediately."
< p>Then he turned to look at Tier again: "You just go back first...""Farewell, I'd better go over with you and have a look." Tier immediately waved his tail, "All day long I became curious when you mentioned that there is an ancient facility in the mountains, which contains some kind of crystallized technology from the Gondor Empire - but I won’t go there if it’s a secret.”
Gao Wen looked at Tier, hesitating slightly, but finally nodded: "Okay, if you want to follow, come along. Maybe your knowledge can be of some use."
He Thinking of the fact that the flesh and blood of gods had been studied in the ruins in the mountain, if the door at the bottom of the ruins leads to a place related to gods, then Tyr, a deep sea god of harmony who dares to devour the flesh and blood of gods, might have some effect... Can you at least be an appraiser?
