After putting the entire Black Crystal Coffin into the virtual space, Zuo Qingcang checked the surroundings carefully, trying to find out how he had slept for twenty years.
Looking at the destroyed explosive device, he frowned. There were obvious signs of human intervention.
Someone had snuck in after he had fallen asleep, destroyed the explosive device, and adjusted the time in an attempt to make him sleep for sixty years. If Nick and the others had not come in to wake him up, he might have slept even longer.
'Who could it be? Avar? Geo? Or someone else? '
Zuo Qingcang thought about it but was still unable to think of who could have broken through the formation without anyone noticing, entered before the Black Crystal Sacred Coffin, destroyed the explosive device without waking him up, and even reset the time. However, this person did not kill him.
'No matter who you are... You're dead meat. '
A cold light flashed in Zuo Qingcang's eyes, and he walked toward the Angel.
...
In the time that followed, Zuo Qingcang directed the crew of the Angel to sail toward the New World.
In the process of sailing, he learned the Empire's common language from Nick, as well as the things that had happened in the past few years.
With his current level of brain development, physical attributes, and stamina, learning a language was too easy. After spending about a week, he was already able to communicate with Nick in the Empire's common language fluently.
"With the development of technology, the entire world will go through unprecedented changes. Our development in the past thirty years will be greater than the development of mankind in the past three thousand years." Mage Nick was clearly a person who was obsessed with technology and was an absolute materialist. He said excitedly, "This is the golden age of mankind. There will be amazing things happening every day. Perhaps due to the decrease in the number of life clusters and the changes in the environment, our absolute power is still not comparable to the strong people of the ancient times. However, we will eventually surpass them. "
"Is that so?" Zuo Qingcang did not seem to be interested in this at all. In his opinion, apart from the power of magic and Taoism, the development of other so-called science and technology was only at the level of World War II on Earth. Some areas were better than others, while others were worse.
Even now, Nick, who still thought that Zuo Qingcang had been in a deep slumber in a coffin for over 1,000 years, looked at Zuo Qingcang's nonchalant expression. He thought that Zuo Qingcang had not realized the importance of the popularization of technology, the improvement of technology, and the development of technology in the current world. So, Nick said once again, "The Empire's Royal Academy has already classified demonic elements (spirit energy). Do you know?
Zuo Qingcang threw a glance at this excited supporter of the wave theory and could not be bothered to correct him. Instead, he asked, "Has the so-called new land been taken over by your Empire?"
Of course, Zuo Qingcang could use the Hell Soul-Cleansing Scripture to distort the other party's consciousness and force them to tell him all the answers. However, Nick was very smart as a Mage, and it was naturally very difficult for him to fabricate the memories of a smart person, unlike how it was as easy as a simple hint from the crew.
Since Zuo Qingcang could pretend to be Old Antique and ask about what happened in the past, there was naturally no reason for him to waste time and effort fabricating memories and distorting the other party's consciousness to get the same answer.
"Yes," Nick said proudly. Nick proudly said, "The Holy Will Empire. Under the leadership of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, we have unified the entire Western Continent 30 years ago."
Zuo Qingcang nodded. When he first came to the new continent, he had heard rumors about the Western Continent. On the pirate island, he had encountered ghouls who had escaped from the Western Continent. According to the other party, the ghouls had fled to avoid the chaotic battle in the Western Continent.
Looking at the time, the ghouls had spent a lot of time on the run, and when they were searching for the origin blood, the Western Continent had already been unified.
Thus, a few years later, Zuo Qingcang had encountered the enemy's advance party at the border of Dongmu, and had killed many Mages to complete the Crimson Blood Mystic Light Fiend.
In an instant, he had sorted out the entire timeline. Zuo Qingcang asked again, "What happened after that? Tell me, what did you guys do next? It must have been very interesting, right? "
His tone seemed to be full of temptation, and Nick couldn't wait to speak his mind.
"Under His Majesty's leadership, we launched the first technological revolution, and completely lifted the veil of the mystery of magic. Everything in this world can be explained together. As long as we know the rules, the theorems, and the numbers, we can get the answer," Nick said proudly.
"His Majesty is the greatest Sage since ancient times (a title for a Mage, equivalent to the Milky Way stage of Taoist magic). It's just that the Western Continent pays more attention to the popularization of magic than to the improvement of one's combat strength.
Not only is His Majesty's personal strength unparalleled in the world, his academic research is even more comprehensive. Twenty years ago, he was already able to suppress the Five Great Sages by himself. The atomic theory, the wave hypothesis, and the principle of optics that he published were all papers that pushed forward the development of the era.
If it weren't for His Majesty, I'm afraid that we would still be the same as we were a hundred years ago, still living the same unchanging life. "
"With the rapid development of our technology, His Majesty made a declaration to liberate all mankind, and we tried to send troops to the New World and the Central Plains.
With our technology, we can give the poor people in these countries a better life. We should be the masters of this world, not those decadent and backward rulers. This is the progress of the era, the progress of the world. "
"Then what about the outcome?" Zuo Qingcang ignored Nick's fanaticism for the Empire and the Emperor. Instead, he asked, "How much land have you occupied?" Releasing some of his spiritual energy, and with a little guidance, Nick unknowingly became more and more relaxed. He could not wait to speak out his thoughts and attitudes that he rarely expressed.
"A lot. In the Central Plains, we landed in Jiangnan. With Jiangzhou as the center, we occupied more than one-third of the fertile land in the Central Plains," Nick said proudly.
"As for the New World, the people here are too backward. If it weren't for the desperate resistance of the colonists from the Da Qi State, we could have unified the entire New World in three years at most."
"Then what happened? Were the colonists defeated by you? " Although he already knew the answer in the Holy Tomb, Zuo Qingcang still wanted to ask about the details.
Nick nodded, then shook his head. "They established a country called Atlantis. Their resistance was very fierce and they were very strong, but they were still no match for us under His Majesty's leadership.
We had already driven them to the cold north, but at that moment … "
"… His Majesty was ambushed."
