Generally speaking, this was a world similar to the Middle Ages.
The level of civilization here was still at the level of ancient times. There were no computers, mobile phones, or other forms of transportation. Even the energy of electricity had not been discovered.
Basically, the whole world was in an era where traveling was done by horse carriages, farming was done by cows and sheep, lighting was done by oil lamps, and there was no entertainment at all.
The reason why it was "basically" was of course because there were a few countries in this world that had technology that was completely out of line with the background of this era.
But that was only a few. Ninety-nine percent of the countries in this world were currently in a feudal period. The king and the nobles controlled all the rights in the country. It was no different from the Middle Ages.
But even so, this world was obviously different from the normal world.
Things and knowledge like magic, alchemy, monsters, and the like would definitely be hidden in the Type Moon world. But in this world, even the ordinary people knew about it and had even encountered it before.
In this world, everyone knew about magic.
On the other hand, extremely aggressive and irrational monsters could be found almost everywhere in the world.
There was even a special profession like [Adventurer] that specialized in obtaining rewards by completing missions.
There were many kinds of missions. Normal missions included repelling monsters, obtaining materials unique to monsters, and so on. Missions like dealing with thieves and escorting merchants were also more common. Sometimes, even when there was a war with a hostile country, the country may entrust missions like investigation and assassination missions to the adventurers.
"The most important point is that this world has a prophecy since ancient times."
Liu Xia sorted out the general knowledge in her mind as she said to the two of them, "In a certain year in the future, there will be a disaster that can destroy the world — the Tidal Wave. If we don't stop this disaster, the entire world will be destroyed."
Perhaps because it was too long ago, the part about the wave was actually a little vague.
No one knew what the wave was, no one knew its true appearance, and no one knew where it would appear and how it would destroy the world.
They only knew that the wave would appear in a certain year and destroy the world.
"The year mentioned in the prophecy seems to be this year."
Liu Xia stood at the edge of the cliff. His hair fluttered in the sea breeze, and his clothes fluttered in the wind. "My mission this time includes repelling at least three waves."
That was right.
The prophecy mentioned that the year of the arrival of the wave was this year.
The reason why he knew the time so accurately was because he had a special item, the [Dragon-Carved Hourglass], that could accurately measure the arrival time of the waves.
According to common knowledge, the dragon-carved hourglass could predict the arrival of the tide and give a warning one month in advance.
As long as the residents of this world believed in the dragon's hourglass' warning and made preparations in advance, they could at least form a line of defense to stop the tide.
And it seemed that not long ago, the dragon-carved hourglass had been successfully activated and sent a warning to this world.
"However, perhaps because the prophecy was too far in the past, even if the dragon's hourglass gave an early warning, no one believed that the tide would come."
This was to be expected.
After all, who would easily believe that the end of the world would come?
Even in the modern era, where the masses were enlightened, not many people would really believe that the end of the world would come on time and make preparations in advance, right?
Of course, to the residents of this world, it was indeed unknown whether the wave would come.
But for Ryuga, the tide was definitely coming.
Otherwise, the Nameless Spiritual Foundation would not have issued him the mission to repel the wave.
Therefore, he did not need to worry about whether the wave would come or not. He just needed to prepare to welcome and repel the wave.
"I see."
Esders pondered for a moment, then quickly grasped the key of the problem. "Then, when will the wave come, and where will it come? How strong will it be? Can we deal with it with our current strength? "
When Ryuga heard this, she muttered, "According to common knowledge, at most, we can only know that the wave will come this year. As for other information such as the location of the wave and how strong it will be, it is impossible to speculate."
Because no one believed that the wave that would destroy the world would really come, although many people knew that the dragon's hourglass was warning them, the specific time of the hourglass' warning was not widely spread.
And Ryuga only received common knowledge, which was equivalent to the knowledge that most people knew. He only knew common knowledge, so of course, he did not know the specific time of the wave's arrival.
The dragon's hourglass could only predict the time of the wave's arrival. It could not tell the location of the wave, nor could it calculate the strength of the wave.
If he wanted to know this information, he would rather experience it himself. Then, he could make a guess. But until now, there had not been a single wave, so of course, he could not make any guesses.
But, of course, this did not work for Ryuga.
"The wave will come in ten minutes."
Ryuga closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes had turned into the color of gems. "The location will be near the seaside. In terms of strength … It seems that only some weak magical creatures will appear. It is not worth mentioning."
To him, no matter the time of arrival, the location of arrival, or the strength of the wave, nothing could be hidden from him.
The scale of the wave was not at the level of Qi Huang, so naturally, it could not prevent him from using his Demonic Eye.
Moreover, even without Future Vision, Ryuga knew that the first wave would definitely occur near the seaside.
Because every time he traveled to another world, the Nameless Spirit Base would personally choose the location of his arrival. The most accurate time and location was the most convenient for him to complete the Spirit Base mission.
In the past, whether it was in the world of the Ghost Destroyer Blade or the world of the Crimson Eye, it was the same. This was also the rule that the Nameless Spirit Base told Ryuga about every time he traveled to another world.
Not to mention the first wave, even if it was the second and third wave in the future, Liuxia would be able to know the specific time and location of the wave in advance through the Future Vision. She would be able to prepare in advance.
After his Future Vision was upgraded to Grade-A, not only could he accurately see the future within half a day, but he also awakened Future Vision: Prediction, Future Vision test, and the Demonic Eye of Death Perception.
It was very convenient to complete the Spirit Base mission.
