Hyperdimensional game! The ultimate aesthetics of violent wizards

The sudden flood wiped out all the powerful tribes around the center of the continent. Under the pouring of hundreds of trillions of tons of seawater and the power of the natural disaster that swept across the entire continent, all living creatures seemed so insignificant.

Just like the story about Noah's Ark in the Old Testament Genesis, God saw that people were extremely wicked on earth, so he announced that he would use a flood to destroy all living things with flesh and blood on earth, and no one would escape death.

However, this time the "Great Purge" was carried out by a different race, and humans escaped because they lived in the mountains and outside the continent. The Silver Moon Elves also survived because they were protected by the super "umbrella" of the World Tree.

A hundred years later, the flood receded and the continent reappeared on the surface, but everything and people had changed.

In this brand new continent, Lao Liu, no, the church came onto the stage.

"God's grace is like the sea, and God's might is like prison. God loves the world, and God comes to the world. This is the divine punishment brought down by God Barudos!"

"War has brought devastation to the world. The gods sent down a flood to wipe out the world's sins!"

"Only by believing in God and joining the church can we obtain God's forgiveness and protection."

"The gods have chosen humans. Destiny lies with humans!"

The biggest advantage of the human race is its strong reproductive ability. Basically, one generation is every ten years, and the population can multiply several times in ten years.

Compared to those "strong tribes" that take dozens or hundreds of years to complete a replacement and only have one or two children per litter, humans' reproductive capacity is simply amazing.

In the past, this advantage could not be brought into play because the environment was not suitable. How could they have the energy to reproduce when they could not even survive? But as long as you can provide humans with a comfortable and stable environment and enough time to develop, then humans are destined to rise.

The world after the Great Purge is exactly the environment suitable for human survival.

In the beginning, there were many weak tribes competing with humans, but the continent was large, with abundant resources, and few carnivores, so no conflicts occurred and everyone was focused on development.

But as they developed, other races discovered a problem...

Damn, why are there so many people?

This is also thanks to the church's call on everyone to work hard to create humans, so the human population has increased five or six times every ten years or so. During the development period, martial arts and "magic" were also taught to humans, giving them the ability to protect themselves.

In this way, human beings have developed steadily for four or five hundred years. Assuming that one generation is 20 years, 500 years is 25 generations. Don't count one generation five or six times, just double it, which is 2^25, or 3350 million times. Note that it is times, not people.

Although the human population was not large at that time, with such a multiple increase, humans still became a "big tribe" on the continent a hundred years later. After two hundred years, humans became a "strong tribe" on the continent. After five hundred years, humans had become the strongest tribe on the continent, with footprints all over the continent and also expanding to other continents.

Whether it was the human beings from the Semlia continent, the Chaos continent, or other continents, they all migrated from the Penicsia continent during the period of population explosion.

It was also at that time that the church established its current unshakable position. They are the beacon that guides the direction of mankind and the protector of mankind's rise.

Let me ask myself, is there really anyone who can replace the church?

The relationship between the church and the empire, and the collision between divine power and imperial power, are also problems that Rhine must face in the future.

After the rise of humans, other races united together, so the camps at that time were divided into the human camp and the non-human camp. The human race alone fought against races from all over the continent.

After thousands of years of stalemate, humans finally gained the upper hand. It is worth mentioning that the stalemate was also the time when new species emerged, emmm... referring to sub-humans. There are always some humans who want to challenge the limits of their XP, so the sub-human race was born.

It should be noted here that subhumans and orcs are different. Subhumans refer to alien races mixed with human blood, while orcs are the offspring of humans and orcs. If the number of orcs of the same species is large enough, then they will continue to reproduce and become a new subhuman species.

Just like in the beginning, a human mated with an ice wolf and gave birth to an ice wolfman, at which point the ice wolfman could only be considered a half-orc. But if other like-minded people also gave birth to ice wolfmen, and then ice wolfmen and humans, or ice wolfmen and ice wolfmen, continued to interbreed with humans, when the genes finally stabilized, the lovely ice wolf tribe was born.

So now we have cat girls, dog girls, rabbit girls, fox girls and other cute demi-humans thanks to the ancestors. Especially the first generation of ancestors, thanks to their strange XP, the miracle of species was born!

Thanks to the reproductive isolation on Earth, otherwise all the women would be of Indian descent.

The reason why humans were able to gain the upper hand was because the addition of these sub-human races broke the balance. After all, at that time humans were enemies all over the world, and the only ones who could join humans were these sub-humans with human blood.

Just when humans were about to end the chaotic era and unify the world, the neutral Silver Moon Elves joined the non-human camp, because they were originally non-human. But everyone knew that they were afraid that humans would attack the Silver Moon Elves after they became the only powerful, so they wanted to balance the strength of both sides.

But even so, the rise of mankind is unstoppable. According to the church, destiny lies with mankind!

Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. With the accumulation of massive numbers of people and the full cultivation of the church, humans even gave birth to the only demigod since the era of the high elves, who is the demigod of the church mentioned earlier.

Under the leadership of the powerful demigods, humans achieved victory after victory.

But just when humans were about to completely end the Chaos Era and usher in the Human Era, the Demon King of the Demon Clan appeared out of nowhere and killed the world's strongest man at the time, and the blood of the demigods was spilled in the sky. This is also the reason why the church and the demons are irreconcilable. It has never been because the demons are demons, but because the demons killed the demigods of the church.

After losing the demigod, the morale of the human race was greatly damaged. Before they could recover, the Demon King had already led the demons to kill through the human camp. The main reason was that no one could stop the Demon King at that time, and the high-ranking people on the human side were all beheaded.

After losing a large number of high-ranking and powerful people, the leaderless human race was defeated, while the demons won victory after victory.

After the human camp was defeated, it was the turn of the races outside the human camp.

They can either choose to join the demon clan or resist.

This is why many of the demons now look exactly like orcs or some other races.

After all, more than 10,000 years ago they were of the same race, but some chose to join the demons, while others chose to resist.

In this way, the demons, led by the Demon King, created their own era, the Demon Age. But for humans, it was a dark era that they could not bear to look back on.

Some of the Silver Moon Elves joined the demons and fell into the Dark Elves, while others hid in the World Tree, which was the only place that the Demon King had not conquered. In addition, even the Royal Court of the High Elves became the palace of the Demon King.

What followed was the story that everyone knows. The Demon King mysteriously disappeared after ruling the world for hundreds of years, and the demon clan began to split and a full-scale civil war broke out.

As a result, the human race was able to catch its breath and quietly accumulate strength for a counterattack. Eventually, under the leadership of the brave, with the help of all races across the continent, they overthrew the Demon Era and established the Human Era which continues to this day.

The races that had helped humans were able to continue to survive on the continent, including the Silver Moon Elves. The races that joined the demons were purged by humans, and their descendants would be exiled to the Demon Territory forever.

Since then, although mankind has experienced various difficulties, it has always occupied the position of world hegemony.

It can be said that the devastating flood 20,000 years ago played a decisive role in the rise of mankind and the creation of an era belonging to mankind.

In fact, there was also a devastating flood during the Age of the High Elves, but it happened on another continent.

The difference is that the scholars of the high elves quickly figured out the principle of the flood from the sky and developed corresponding countermeasures, and similar incidents have never occurred since then.

It turns out that there is a vortex with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers in the center of the world's largest ocean. In the center of the vortex is a huge hollow tunnel that goes straight into the interior of the earth's crust. As long as low-temperature seawater flows into the hollow, the geothermal heat below will cause water vapor to be generated.

If the water vapor pressure becomes too great, upwelling occurs.

Because the seawater inside the tunnel is pushed upward by the huge steam, the greater the steam pressure, the faster the speed. It is just like pushing a syringe filled with water, except that the syringe is pushed by hand.

, while steam is used to push the engine inside the tunnel.

As long as the pressure is great enough, a world wonder will appear and an upward ocean current will be born.

It was thanks to this upwelling current that the High Elves were able to establish a civilization even in the sky, as well as an extraterrestrial exploration center.

(No, I can’t finish it. Because I couldn’t stop after explaining the background in this chapter, which resulted in no progress in the main text, so I will add another 4000 words today. It should be in the afternoon or evening. Also, from the background explained, it can be seen that the next map of Rhine is another continent. Hmm...Realistic Brave Kingdom Reconstruction Record.)

Chapter 263: History of the High Elves/Towards the Stars and the Abyss

The sky of Penicsia is a forbidden zone for all living beings, but it still cannot stop the high elves from exploring the world.

With strong official support, scholars of the High Elves Era, after continuous research, finally divided the sky layers of Penicsia into storm layer, thunderstorm layer, gale layer, ocean layer, extra-large hail layer, stratospheric overpressure layer and bound layer.

The storm layer is easy to understand. Typhoons, hurricanes, cyclones, jet streams and other phenomena all occur in this layer. It is the closest and simplest layer to the ground in the "ascending to heaven" ladder. But even so, this is still a realm that only magicians above the level of Great Witch can touch.

Although other Great Sage-level professionals can also fly, their flying skills and endurance are obviously not comparable to those of Mage professionals. After all, the sky is the domain of mages. Therefore, it is almost impossible for Great Sage-level non-mage professionals to break through the storm layer.

Above the storm is the thunderstorm, which is a sea of ​​thunder. Countless lightning flashes through the clouds, and any object that enters the thunderstorm layer will be destroyed by the violent thunder. Most witches will stop here on their way to heaven, and only a very few extremely outstanding witches can break through to the next layer despite the thunderstorm.

In the gale layer, "the wind is as sharp as a knife" is no longer a figure of speech to describe the strong wind, but a real physical knife cutting, cutting iron like mud. Each gale is roughly equivalent to the wind blade technique released by a great witch. One or two is not a big deal, but what if there are tens of thousands? No matter how powerful the great witch is, she cannot break through the blockade of the gale layer.

On the contrary, legendary strongmen can artificially control the surrounding environment because of the domain field. Therefore, no matter how harsh the environment outside the domain is, it has no effect on the legends. They can easily break through the lower three layers, even the hail layer.

After hundreds of millions or even billions of years of accumulation, the ocean layer has already covered the entire sky of Penichesia, and its thickness ranges from tens of meters at the shallowest to thousands of meters. The ocean layer can be said to be a station or midpoint station on the journey to heaven. It is the calmest layer of all the steps to heaven, with almost no danger.

The comfortable environment also allows the ocean layer to develop an ecosystem that is completely different from that on land, and has also given birth to many unique civilizations.

For example, the legendary floating continent "Synapse" floating above the sea of ​​clouds is said to be where the Flügel (angels) live. There is also the Sky Tower, a relic of an ancient unknown civilization.

Or the golden city "Shandor" said to have endless wealth, the sky kingdom "Lyuthra" established by the black elves, and the sky kingdom "Karesio" established by the forest elves. These two major elves are elves who came down from the original world tree that penetrated the sky and the earth like the high elves, but the high elves came down from the canopy to the ground, while they only went down to the ocean layer.

After the destruction of the original World Tree in the Age of Gods, the elves above the sea of ​​clouds completely lost contact with the high elves on the ground. Since then, the different living environments have created a completely different elven civilization.

After conquering all civilizations on earth, the high elves began to move towards the sky. In a very short period of time, they conquered all the sky civilizations in the entire ocean layer, which surprised even them, because the sky civilization was too weak and could not be compared with the civilization on earth. To be frank, this process was easier than the Mongols conquering Europe, and they were able to conquer it all with just the advance troops sent to test it.

Perhaps it was because the resources in the sky were not enough to support people's cultivation. The strongest among them was only half a step into the divine realm, which was completely insignificant compared to the era of high elves with demigods.

Although the cultivation civilization is not strong, it has maxed out the technology tree. All kinds of fancy technologies have dazzled the high elves. It is probably because of resource limitations. The sky civilization can only make up for it as much as possible from other places. Therefore, many ideas, routines, ways of thinking, etc. are completely different from the technological system of the resource-rich high elves.

Your thoughts and ideas are all good, but now they are mine. Thanks to the Sky Civilization, the High Elves Era has entered an era of technological explosion.

After conquering the earth, the High Elves conquered the sky, and borrowed the technology of many sky civilizations to build "wonders" of different styles above the sea of ​​clouds.

Such as the floating tower "Elesis", the sky city "Laputa", the floating city "Liberl's Ark", the hanging garden "Babylon", the city of heaven "Salem"... and so on.

In addition, some data about the creation of the Flügel species by the gods were found in the ruins of the Age of Gods, Synapse. Based on this data, combat angels codenamed α Ikaros, β Nymph, γ Harpy, ε Chaos, ζ Kazeon Hiyori, η Siren, θ Meran, and Δ Astraee were eventually created.

After conquering the sky, the high elves continued to move towards the deeper sky, but this time the battle angels took the lead, which was also a good opportunity to test the angels' physical functions and various data.

The hail layer, the huge hail as big as houses, was defeated by the powerful firepower of the strategic all-powerful angel "Queen of the Sky" Ikaros before it fell. Her ultimate weapon Apollo had the terrifying power to wipe out an entire civilization with one blow.

Soon, the battle angels fought through the hail layer and arrived at the stratospheric overpressure layer. The biggest feature of this layer is the terrifying atmospheric pressure in the air. Generally speaking, atmospheric pressure is generated by the gravity of the atmosphere. The higher the altitude, the thinner the atmosphere, and the smaller the atmospheric pressure there should be.

But in the overpressure layer, the opposite is true. The higher the altitude, the greater the atmospheric pressure, just like the pressure increases the deeper you dive in the ocean.

When Ikaros first entered the superpressure layer, the air pressure instrument on his body showed that the atmospheric pressure was only 10 standard atmospheres, which is equivalent to a 100-ton object on a one-square-meter plane, or an adult's palm holding up a 1-ton object, or the water pressure at 100 meters underwater.

Of course, this level of atmospheric pressure is nothing to Ikaros. But as the altitude increases, the pressure becomes more and more terrifying. After only ascending less than 1000 meters, the pressure has risen to standard atmospheres, which is equivalent to the pressure of meters underwater.

However, for the Queen of the Sky, a thousand tons of pressure in one hand is still a piece of cake. The real problem is that no one knows how thick this overpressure layer is, and whether there are new difficulties waiting for them above the overpressure layer.

500 years, it took the scientists of the high elves 500 years to pass the super pressure layer, which was 10 times longer than the time of all the previous levels combined. During this period, Ikaros received pressure resistance transformation while exploring the starry sky. After hundreds of years of continuous transformation, the strength of the body has also climbed from the most ordinary initial stage of the God Realm to the peak of the God Realm.

Incidentally, all the data collected from Sky Queen Ikaros over the years was eventually used on Sky Goddess Edes, which allowed the High Elves to create automatons that were comparable to demigods.

The last level of the ladder to heaven, the binding level.

If the superpressure layer is the atmospheric pressure, then the bound layer is the planet's gravity.

As we all know, Penicsia is a super-Earth that is dozens of times larger than the Earth, but people on the surface don't feel anything. Instead, they feel the terrifying gravity of the super-planet in deep space far away from the ground, as if some force has reversed the gravity of the entire planet.

This time, the technology of the high elves has reached a bottleneck. No matter how they look for new materials or how they replace those "fragile" parts, they will eventually be crushed to pieces under the terrifying gravity.

Even the kingdom of God of a powerful god cannot escape the fate of being crushed by gravity when it goes deep into the sky, because gravity can distort space, and the huge source of gravity directly pulls out the kingdom of God hidden in the space layer.

At this point, the extraterrestrial exploration plan, which took more than 2,000 years to complete, has come to a complete standstill. However, although the plan has not made much progress, it has also led to a series of technological innovations.

For example, in order to ensure good communication between the command center on the ground and Ikaros in deep space, the scientists of the high elves initially built a large number of communication base stations in the ocean layer, but the effect was very unsatisfactory. Because the distance between the ocean layer and the overpressure layer is still very far, coupled with the influence of various adverse factors in the high altitude, they encountered great difficulties when giving orders to Ikaros, and many data could not be transmitted in time.

So they came up with the idea of ​​building another wave of base stations in the overpressure layer, sending signals from the ground to the ocean layer, and then transmitting them from the base station in the ocean layer to the overpressure layer. However, they tried many solutions at the beginning and none of them worked. Either the materials used to make the base station could not withstand the overpressure environment, or the materials could withstand it but the transmission signal was not ideal. It was like you can't have your cake and eat it too.

But in the end, the problem was solved, and it was Elesis who solved it. Her suggestion was not to worry about the material strength of the base station, but to focus on improving the transmission signal strength of the base station.

Just when the scientists were confused, Elesis placed the extremely fragile base station with super signal transmission efficiency in her own kingdom of God, and then, despite everyone's dissuasion, lifted the kingdom of God equipped with the base station to the edge of the overpressure layer and the binding layer.

Since the kingdom of the gods is located in the space layer, all external factors in the world cannot affect the interior of the kingdom, but the signals from the base station inside the kingdom can penetrate directly. At this point, a clear and efficient transmission channel has been established between the ground, the ocean layer, and the overpressure layer.

As for why it is not placed in the binding layer, as mentioned before, gravity will cause space to distort and affect the interior of the kingdom of God. If the gravity is too great, even the kingdom of God can be crushed.

In fact, scientists have already thought of this plan. After all, it is not difficult to think that pressure cannot have an impact on the Kingdom of God. But the problem is that no one dares to say it, or even mention it.

Because the status of the powerful gods in the era of high elves is very noble, and they can be said to be the princes of the current dynasty. Using the kingdom of the gods of the powerful gods as the shell of the base station... they dare not even think about it.

They didn't dare to think about it, but Elesis did. Not only did she dare to think about it, she also dared to do it. She even got hundreds of gods in the world to do it together.

If it were anyone else, the high elves and other races of the gods would definitely object. You're using a powerful god to protect your base station? Do you still want to save face?

But Elesis is different, she is the founder of the High Elf Era and the Queen of High Elf revered by the whole world. Her decision is the decision of the entire High Elf Dynasty and even the entire era. Everyone, including demigods, obeys her orders unconditionally, just because they believe in her decision. This may be the realm of the Holy Emperor who is as humble as Zhou Gong and has the whole world at peace.

Under the command of Elesis, hundreds of powerful gods held high the Kingdom of God filled with a large number of base stations for various purposes and evenly dispersed them in the overpressure layer above all parts of the world. Then a large number of mobile base stations at sea were established in the middle ocean layer, and finally base stations were established on the ground of each continent.

Thus, the most proud space-based World Wide Web of the High Elves Era was born.

Later, it was proved that Elesis's decision was correct, because the birth of the Tianji World Wide Web made the whole world closely connected, and people could communicate and talk with people on the other side of the world in real time. And with the development of World Wide Web technology, the Divine Realm Space (Metaverse) was born.

As for whether those powerful gods who were caught and "jailed" would have any objections? It is impossible to say no, but it is also impossible to say it out loud. Because behind Elesis stands the entire High Elves Era.

Besides, Elesis didn't ask them not to leave, as long as the Kingdom of God was there as a satellite. After all, in this prosperous and peaceful era of the High Elves, it was basically impossible for the powerful gods to have conflicts, so as long as there was no fighting, it didn't matter whether there was a Kingdom of God or not.

And with the development of various virtual games, more and more powerful gods have become otakus. It is common for people like Thor in a certain world to stay in their own kingdom of God for 500 years without coming out.

In addition, the material strength data collected from Ikaros are also used in various construction materials, such as cross-continental bridges, undersea tunnels connecting continents, space elevators that reach the sky, and flying prop shells that travel at a hundred times the speed of sound.

It can be said that the high elves' exploration of "space" has driven the advancement of science and technology in the entire society, and this is the same no matter which world it is in.
