Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 2188 1220: Mysteries and Speculation

“Young man, now that this catastrophe has come to an end, can you tell me about the Era of Blankness?”

Fei’er’s starry eyes were filled with confusion and lament, she nodded heavily to Leo Ray and said, “To be honest, I’m very curious about how the Silverfire Kingdom was destroyed, and I’m also curious about how I fell at that time.”

Fei’er rubbed her head and added, “But I really can’t remember what happened back then, it seems as if the destruction and collapse happened in the blink of an eye, catching everyone off guard.”

“I’m sorry, Fei’er, this is exactly what I’m seeking now.”

Leo Ray’s dark eyes revealed a hint of solemnity as he said seriously, “What I can tell you is that the reason that era is called the Era of Blankness is because no one remembers what happened, everything vanished in those unknown years filled with destruction and war.”

“Glorious civilizations obliterated, the tower of power collapsed, the emperor’s crown shattered, supreme deities departed… With the passing of the Era of Blankness, what was left to the survivors among the Ten Thousand Clans was a broken homeland, widespread ruins, endless confusion, and this Godforsaken Lands no longer favored by the gods, full of scars.”

Leo Ray’s voice became increasingly solemn, and then he described to Fei’er all the clues and observations he had gained during his journey and explorations of the relics.

“It’s astonishing, not only the territories of the Ten Thousand Clans, but even the Land of Divine Favor, protected by the deities themselves, did not escape disaster.”

Fei’er’s starry eyes did not blink, listening carefully to Leo Ray’s narration.

“Indeed, and what the Era of Blankness brought was not only endless doubt but also many inexplicable mysterious effects.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly and then described the three most puzzling additional enigmas of the Era of Blankness: “Dislocated Objects Effect,” “Lost Relic Effect,” and “The Last Idol Effect.”

“No wonder my palace not only sunk deep underground but also inexplicably lost a large portion, without finding any ancient remains, is this the reason? Furthermore, the idols in the Land of Divine Favor have all disappeared, but the idols in the Temple of Myriad Clans still remain, which is simply inconceivable.”

Fei’er’s delicate brows almost twisted into a knot, thoughtfully saying, “What really happened back then? Even the positions of buildings have changed? Spanning the entire region? Even including Allen’s ship?”

“Furthermore, if the disappearance of skeletons in a relic can be explained, why have the relics of the Ten Thousand Clans disappeared entirely? It’s simply inexplicable!”

“If there were to be total destruction, then the relics themselves would not remain, yet since many relics are relatively well-preserved, where have the bones gone?”

“The most crucial question is, why have all the idols in the Land of Divine Favor disappeared?”

Listening to Fei’er’s string of questions, Leo Ray could only respond with silence.

He had also pondered these questions countless times before but had not found any answers either.

After a long period, Leo Ray finally spoke, “That’s why I call the Era of Blankness the mystery of ten thousand enigmas, because there are too many things that are difficult to explain, but there must be some underlying connection among them.”

“What can be confirmed now is that the deities must have personally participated at that time, so after multiple investigations and discussions, I have summarized three possible hypotheses to explain what happened during the Era of Blankness.”

“First, is that an unprecedented war of epic scale occurred between the deities and the Ten Thousand Clans.”

“The Ten Thousand Clans took the initiative, invaded the Land of Divine Favor, causing a lot of trouble for the unprepared deities, and eventually, the deities sent down divine punishment and abandoned this land, which led to the lack of divine favor and the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God.”

Upon hearing this, Fei’er’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she immediately rejected, “Young man, that’s absolutely impossible.”

“For us back then, the all-powerful and all-knowing deities were the supreme existence, it was the wise and generous deities who bestowed upon us the original Cultivation Methods, Magic, and Martial Techniques, granting us the ability to survive on this land, not to be devoured by the omnipresent fierce Demon Beasts.”

“Deities are the mighty existence that every strong person dreams of seeing but cannot reach, and they are the faith of all people, we built temples, prayed day and night, and praised the miracles of the deities, how could we have the heart to rebel?”

Fei’er’s voice grew more confused as she added, “Even if the Ten Thousand Clans indeed stood on the opposition side of the deities due to certain events, the deities who sent down divine punishment should use it to warn future generations of our foolishness, so why would they instead let everyone forget everything?”

“That’s also what I’m puzzled about, so it leads to the second hypothesis.”

Leo Ray nodded to the petite princess before him and continued, “Second, is that the deities were divided into two camps, one of which sided with the Ten Thousand Clans, and eventually, due to some reasons, they developed a rift leading to a relentless all-out war.”

“Ultimately, the deities who sided with the Ten Thousand Clans faced defeat, and the victorious deities abandoned this land and the remaining clans, erasing everything upon departure, as the struggle between deities was not something worth remembering.”
