Orc Kingdom, Tiridan Paladin Kingdom
Ever since the collapse of the Holy Seville Empire, the entire orc kingdom had been divided again. The lords and governors of various places had become independent mercenaries, and the Tiridan Paladin Kingdom occupied Sarga City and the area near the Red River Plain.
The founder of the Tiridan Paladin Kingdom was the first Paladin to follow the emperor of the Holy Seville Empire, the great Lion King Will. He was a Tauren Paladin who had participated in the first dragon-slaying war, the northern crusade, and the establishment of the Holy Seville Empire. He had been guarding the Lion King Will until he died in the Undead Disaster.
After the collapse of the Holy Seville Empire, the Holy Knights Templar occupied the most prosperous place in the world, along with the Red River Plain and the Salt Pool. Although the Holy Seville Empire had collapsed, the great integration of the orc kingdoms had basically been completed. The policies and systems of the Holy Seville Empire had basically been preserved. The original tribal system had basically disappeared, and most of the orcs now lived in the cities.
Bulburg was a newly established orc city. Originally, it was a castle belonging to a noble. After gradual expansion, it became a new orc city. Recently, a group of human scholars came to Bulburg. After spending a large amount of money, they obtained the approval of the governor of Bulburg and obtained the permission to explore the historical remains of the orcs in the surrounding area.
Jonathan hired a group of orcs to help him explore the relics of the early rat-men tribe. Sarga City was not the first city of the rat-men. It was the birthplace of the earliest rat-men civilization.
In the hilly area next to a village, Jonathan found traces of the early rat-men city. Jonathan confirmed that this was the place he was looking for. Jonathan also found the stone tablet corresponding to the rubbing scroll, which had been taken by the farmers of the orc village to build a pig pen!
In their spare time, the orcs of the village would come to help Jonathan excavate the relics in exchange for a sum of money. At this time, a large number of orcs were busy excavating the relics between the hills.
As a large amount of soil and stones were turned over, an early city from more than two thousand years ago gradually appeared in front of Jonathan's eyes. It had tall walls and neat residential houses. During the excavation, Jonathan also found early pottery coins, pottery, inscriptions, and the living utensils of the Ratmen. There was even a tomb of the Ratmen. At that time, the Ratmen were the strongest race among the Orcs. They commanded a large number of Orc slaves, and many of the slaves were buried with them.
"Mr. Brown, there is something! There is something ahead!"
Jonathan was looking at the various things that had been excavated in the city. Most of them were shabby. There was no gold, silver, or anything valuable. This was why the consul of Bulberg City was so generous. However, for scholars, these things were priceless treasures. They could trace the history of early life and the oldest civilization of the orcs from the information of these things.
However, Jonathan frowned. He did not find what he wanted. He came here for a greater purpose, not to explore the history and changes of the early civilization of the orcs.
Several scholars from the Sean City-State Alliance, who had accompanied Jonathan Brown, immediately squeezed over. They were very excited, as they seemed to have made a major discovery!
Jonathan Brown immediately got up and went with them. Along the way, they could see that the entire ruin was very large. The streets of the rat-men city, the broken walls, and the ruins were all tidied up. At this moment, in the center, they discovered the top of an ancient building. It was a slanted, collapsed spire.
"What is this? Is it a palace? "
"Call everyone over and start digging from here. Be careful, don't damage anything on it, especially those with words and patterns!"
Compared to the other buildings, this one was much more magnificent. As they continued to excavate, they could see layers upon layers of stairs, tall stone pillars, and ancient orc statues. As the slanted spire was excavated bit by bit, the magnificent building was gradually revealed in front of them.
"This? This looks like a temple! " A young scholar on the side observed the patterns on the building and suddenly expressed his opinion and speculation!
"It looks like it. Look at the building below. At first glance, you can tell that it was used for sacrifices!" A middle-aged man holding a shovel said.
"What temple? Which god's temple is it? "Jonathan asked anxiously.
"I'm not sure. We have to go in to be sure, but it doesn't seem to be a god that we know!"
The human scholars around them became a little excited. "This is a lost civilization, the oldest record. Maybe we can find out what the world was like more than 2,000 years ago through this!"
They entered the interior of the temple through the window on the spire. The light of the torches illuminated the world that no one had entered for many years. Many places had collapsed or were blocked. Jonathan and the others had to spend a lot of effort to pass through the collapsed stairs and inclined paths and enter the center of the temple.
The huge statue had collapsed and shattered, leaving only a pedestal. However, when they got closer, they could see that it was a figure wearing a white robe. The head was so badly shattered that it was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman.
"Look, what's the meaning of the words on the wall?"
"What do these murals mean?"
"Shouldn't they usually be scenes of sacrifices, gods, or God's Kingdom?"
"I don't understand. Are these words?"
Everyone raised their torches and immediately noticed the murals on the surrounding walls. Jonathan immediately raised his torch and stood on the first mural. It was a blurry figure, sitting cross-legged in a chaotic darkness, holding something with both hands!
"Which god is this? Why is it different from the other gods? "
"What is it holding in its hands?"
Jonathan stared at the existence on the wall and the thing in its hands. Suddenly, the torch fell to the ground. He looked at the existence on the mural in a daze, and his body trembled continuously.
"What's wrong?"
"Mr. Jonathan?"
Jonathan turned around in shock and looked at everyone. He raised his finger little by little and pointed at the mural. "He … He … What he's holding in his hand is …"
"Our world!" Jonathan felt his teeth chattering with excitement when he said this.
Everyone turned their heads and looked at the mural again. Suddenly, they felt that the figure on the mural was enlarging continuously. The thing it was holding in its hands gradually turned into a dream-like sphere. Countless living beings lived in the sphere. The sun and stars were constantly moving, and this existence was holding the world, sitting and watching the sun rise and the moon set. It was as if it could sit until the end of the world.
It was this existence that had created the world out of nothingness. He had used his hands to create everything that they relied on to survive. At this moment, everyone was looking at this figure. The originally ordinary and blurry figure instantly grew infinitely taller. At the very least, this was not an ordinary god that they had imagined.
"How is this possible?"
"Which god is this?"
At this moment, everyone's expression changed. Then, they looked at the second mural. The second mural showed the changes inside the world, the birth of the sun and moon, the evolution of all things, and everything was constantly moving forward under the control of the hands that seemed to be the rules.
The third and fourth murals were murals that no one could understand before, but they now realized that they were the abstract evolution history of this world. Regardless of whether it was the Orcs, Elves, Humans, Merfolk, Dragons, or other lifeforms, all of them seemed to be under the control of that figure as they were continuously born in this world. In the end, this world became a colorful world where countless lifeforms surged.
Everyone seemed to have peeped at the birth of this world, the world's biggest secret. The dozen or so people present felt as if their hearts were going to explode, but they couldn't even say a word.
"Fake, impossible, how is this possible? This must be the imagination of the rat-people!" Some scholars kept denying everything they saw.
"This is the barbaric era more than 2,000 years ago. How could the living beings of that time know about dragons, elves, and mermaids? They couldn't even explore the entire orc kingdom, let alone the Alen Continent!"
Everyone looked at the collapsed statue. At this moment, everyone felt trembling and fear. It was clearly just a statue in a ruined temple, but it made people feel shock and awe from the bottom of their hearts!
Jonathan couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He looked at everyone and said, "This is the statue of the creator!"
