Gao Peng's thumb was a little itchy from licking, so he knocked on the White Clam's shell without showing any emotion.
The little White Clam obediently closed its shell and became an honest clam.
Standing on the top of the mountain and looking at the backs of the six little ones, Gao Peng put the little White Clam back into his pocket and turned back to the tribe.
When Purple Star left, he told Gao Peng some news. During this time, Gao Peng had also read all the ancient books in the Li Tribe.
The place where the Li Tribe kept their knowledge was a white steeple, which was one of the tallest white buildings that Gao Peng had seen when he first came to the Li Tribe.
There were many bookshelves on the walls of each floor, and the black bookshelves exuded an old aura of history.
Thick books were neatly placed on each row of bookshelves.
The material of the pages was similar to paper, but it was thicker and more delicate than ordinary paper. It felt as delicate as a baby's skin. According to them, this paper was waterproof and moisture-proof.
The contents of the books on the first floor were nothing more than the history of the tribe and some records of human culture. The second to 30th floors recorded data on various monsters and spiritual creatures.
They were classified and collected according to different attributes and types.
In addition to these 30 floors, there was also a basement floor, which was built in the basement of the tower.
However, this basement needed to be entered from a secret door on the top floor of the 30th floor and go straight down 30 floors to the basement.
The ancient books in the basement were different from the ones outside. Every ancient book in the basement was unique. Some were engraved on stone tablets, some were engraved on wood, and some were written on the surface of animal skin and animal bones.
Among the precious ancient books collected in the basement, Gao Peng found some extremely precious lone copies.
The lone copies recorded the history of Jiutian Shidi, as well as the information of many gods and major events that had happened in the past.
A long time ago, there was no such thing as a God-tier monster trainer. The human race and the mutated race also lived peacefully in Jiutian.
However, the human race and the mutated race only lived in small tribes that relied on worshipping gods to obtain protection to survive and reproduce.
To humans, those monsters were terrifying existences. Every single one of them, from the moment of their birth to the moment of their death, had probably never left the range of a hundred miles from their tribe.
That period was known as the Age of Savagery. The average lifespan of people was not long. Most people spent their lives eating, sleeping, growing vegetables and fruits, raising super weak noob monsters for meat, and constantly giving birth.
There were not many records about that period because it was not easy to survive. Everyone was very busy and did not have the mood or time to think about spiritual things.
Only a very small number of poems and articles were passed down to the later generations. From those few words, it could be seen that … the person who wrote the articles was thinking about what to eat next every day.
Then, one day, a wise human being invented the Blood Contract. From that day onwards, the development of the human race entered a high-speed track.
This period was known as the Bloodline Era.
The people of this era tried to sign Blood Contracts with all kinds of monsters. They were like children who had been given a new toy.
As they gradually got rid of their dependence on survival, their minds began to be liberated.
Of course, Gao Peng could see the author's ridicule from this sarcastic written record.
Many sages signed Blood Contracts and chose Familiars. From the initial ferocious beast monsters to plant monsters, elemental monsters, ghoul monsters, human beings continued to break through the limits …
In the Bloodline Era, the footprints of human beings went to the entire Jiutian, even including the Shidi.
This period was very long, and finally, the family system was formed.
Every tribe was a family, and the people in the tribe had the same surname.
Gao Peng recalled those ancient tribes. It seemed that it was true, and the people in each tribe had the same surname.
There were many records of the Bloodline Era. Perhaps this had something to do with the Li Tribe being a super-large tribe formed by combining the elites of many tribes.
The content of the books involved all over the world, including some ancient secrets.
At the end of the Bloodline Era, an unprecedented war broke out.
The source of the war could no longer be traced. Humans and mutated races suddenly clashed.
From some of the scribbled words, humans and mutated races were not so hostile at first. There were even marriages between the two races.
But for some magical reason, humans and mutated races could not give birth to descendants. Even if descendants were born, they would lose the ability to reproduce.
This situation was called the curse of the bloodline by some people.
After the war of the Bloodline Era ended, from the establishment of the Li Tribe until now, it was called the Era of Hope.
Their expectations for the future and their positive attitude could be seen from each and every one of their passionate words.
Even in such a desperate situation, they did not give up and still had hope.
They always believed that there would be a great hero to save them and let the glory of mankind shine on the land of Jiutian again.
Although, until now, they had not waited …
Putting down the book in his hand, Gao Peng added some oil to the oil lamp on the iron table and stretched his body. In the past two months, it had read all the ancient books and records.
After reading, Gao Peng had a deeper understanding of this world.
"The Mechanized Maze City." There were several books in front of Gao Peng, and these books all mentioned the Mechanized Maze City.
And the authors of these books ran from the Bloodline Era to the current Era of Hope.
Running through two eras, tens of thousands of years, the history of the Mechanized Maze City was very long.
The most recent book was written by a Quasi God monster trainer of the Li Tribe 30 years ago.
— — I saw a majestic city with walls even taller than a mountain. It floated in the sky and was surrounded by steel dragons. Each of the steel dragons had a powerful presence. I only glanced at it from afar before hurriedly leaving.
I saw it again. The steel giant city I saw before, but the scene was completely different from the last time I saw it. The walls of this steel giant city were covered with mottled marks. It stood among the mountains as if it had just experienced an epic battle.
There was only one Steel Dragon left hovering outside the city tower. It stood alone on the city tower, its body riddled with scars, and one of its eyes blind.
Maybe it needed a little help from me? It looked so pitiful, so I walked over.
I was swept away by its tail.
Well, what a barbaric guy.
Such a violent guy. The owner of this giant city should have a bad temper as well.
I memorized the location. I was going to take a look after a while. Maybe it really needed my help.
At the end was a place name, and there was a small map next to it.
The records in the book ended there.
The Quasi God monster trainer could not write the rest of the content. Maybe he died in the war ten years ago.
