Chapter 444 99 A Brief History of the Old World

Chapter 444 -99- A Brief History of the Old World

There have always been many different opinions about the history of the elves in Miria.

However, it is generally recognized by scholars from all sides that the arrival of the elves brought civilization to the wild Miria and officially opened the era of gods and supernatural beings.

It is for this reason that in Miria, the history of the elves often represents myths and epics.

This is why Charlotte asked Harald to collect the elves' books.

In this still wild era, humans have not learned to record history and knowledge, but the elves have this habit.

Although Charlotte knows about the various events that have happened in recent years through the stories of Lilith, Harald and others, if she wants to have a more detailed understanding of this era, she still has to read the elves' books.

The last time she traveled through time, Charlotte did not have this condition, but this time it happened to be met.

Lilith and Harald overthrew the Kingdom of the Tower and seized a large number of elves' collections, which not only included the history of the elves, but also some of the elves' supernatural knowledge and even information about gods!

These books are all things that Charlotte is very interested in, which will help her further understand the mythological era.

As a person who likes to read stories from the beginning, Charlotte naturally puts this "A Brief History of the Old World" first.

With anticipation, Charlotte opened the book in front of her.

As the name suggests, this "A Brief History of the Old World" tells the history of the Old World, which is different from the Miria continent.

The Old World is located in the west of the Miria continent and is the home of the elves. For humans, it only exists in legends.

Of course, Charlotte knows very well that it is not a legend, but a continent that actually exists.

Although "A Brief History of the Old World" is a "brief history", it is still quite thick.

However, Charlotte, who is already a demigod, has a different soul strength.

She can easily achieve this ability of photographic memory without even using the magic of [Strong Sense].

Charlotte reads ten lines at a glance and quickly browses through it, and soon finishes the whole book.

Slightly different from what Charlotte imagined, this "A Brief History of the Old World" has been mythological from the beginning.

The whole book starts with the origin of life and wisdom.

The book tells that a long time ago, there was only one continent in this world, called Albia. There was no life or extraordinary power on the entire continent.

Until one day, a strange god came to this world unexpectedly.

The god came to the world, and the powerful force tore the whole world apart. Since then, the Albia continent has been divided into two parts, east and west.

Seeing the desolation of the whole world, the god who came to the world felt pity.

He created the world with his body, his bones turned into mountains, his blood turned into rivers, his breath turned into magic, his vitality turned into life...

The most essential part of his body gathered in the West Continent, giving birth to a vibrant world full of all kinds of incredible powers.

And the most turbid part of his body gathered in the East Continent. Although it was also full of vitality, it seemed barren, desolate and chaotic compared to the West Continent, and evolved into various monsters.

The origin of the elves is that era.

It is said that the first elves were born from the breath of the gods and were born in the rich Western Continent. Their birth carried the gods' hope for the world.

After that, it was the brilliant epic of the elven civilization.

With wisdom and strength, the elves established kingdoms one after another in the Western Continent and opened up a brilliant elven civilization, which was the era of the Elven Nations.

The era of nations lasted for nearly two thousand years.

During the long time, the elven nations gradually integrated in war and peace, and finally established a huge elven empire.

There were two emperors in the Elven Empire, one was honored as the Sun Emperor Helios, and the other was honored as the Moonlight Queen Artemis.

In recognition of the two emperors' achievements in unifying the continent, the God of Creation shared his last bit of power with them as a reward, and the two emperors were deified.

And the God of Creation fell into an eternal sleep.

The two deified elven emperors are the two main gods worshipped by the elves, the Sun God Helios and the Moon God Artemis.

At this point, the elves entered the age of mythology.

Helios, the sun god, was an ambitious god. He longed for great achievements and hoped to become a great god like the God of Creation.

Artemis, the moon god, was the opposite. He was a gentle god without much ambition. He only hoped to protect the future of the elves.

The two main gods of the elves cultivated many subordinate gods to assist them in managing the continent and further push the elf civilization to its peak.

However, as time went on, the differences between the two main gods became greater and greater.

Helios, the sun god, was not satisfied with the status quo. He hoped to go further and lead the elves to the East Continent, which the God of Creation had not completed the transformation, to eliminate those monsters born from filth and bring the chaotic East Continent under control.

Artemis, the moon god, was the opposite. He hoped that Helios, the sun god, could dispel the idea of ​​war and maintain peace between the two continents.

However, the gentle moon god Artemis was ultimately unable to stop Helios, the sun god, from thinking, and the war eventually broke out.

The war between the two continents lasted for hundreds of years.

On one side, there are the elves led by the elven gods of the Western Continent, and on the other side, there are the monsters of the Eastern Continent who also possess god-like powers.

This war, based on the ambition of the sun god Helios, was quite tragic.

Although it dealt a heavy blow to the monsters of the East Continent, the elves also suffered heavy losses, which could be called a bitter victory.

In order to achieve the final victory, the sun god Helios tried to go a step further and seek the power of creation.

But in the end, he failed.

His failure brought a huge disaster to the West Continent, and the entire continent was destroyed in a terrible catastrophe.

And the elf gods also fell in that catastrophe, leaving only the moon goddess Artemis and some subordinate gods.

The elves were forced to migrate. They left the destroyed West Continent and landed on the East Continent, and started a more protracted war with the remaining monsters...

...

The records in "A Brief History of the Old Continent" are not comprehensive, and there are even obvious signs of deletions and revisions in many places.

Especially the catastrophe, many places are described vaguely and obviously keep it a secret.

Not only that, some records also conflict with the history of the Elf Era in Charlotte's cognition.

However, after browsing, Charlotte still had a better understanding of the mysterious history of the elves.

There were also many speculations about the mythological epics and origins of the Miria continent.

"So that's it... The reason why the elves set foot on the Miria continent was not entirely migration. The elves' attack on Miria began a long, long time ago."

"Those monsters... should refer to the old gods of the Miria continent, right?"

Charlotte muttered to herself.

She closed "A Brief History of the Old World" and planned to look at other classics.

However, just as she opened the next book, she was suddenly interrupted by Harald who came in hurriedly.

This always steady young man had an unconcealable anxiety between his eyebrows.

"What's wrong? Harald, what happened?"

Charlotte's heart jumped and she asked hurriedly.

"Teacher! Lilith... is in trouble!"
