Chapter 337 [I’ve Never Seen a Saint?]

In his heart, Chen Yan was truly particularly curious.

It was a feeling of restless anticipation, like the mood when waiting for an ongoing drama to air.

After reading the story of the "Khalessi" Empress, he was eager to see its continuation.

More importantly, when the council system emerged, the imperial powers were ceded and divided, showing a trend of further progress in the system!

So, in the history of this "unknown race" civilization, after reaching the end of feudalism, where would it go next?

Constitutional monarchy? Democratic parliament? Or GCZY?

Would there be an industrial revolution that would transform productivity dramatically?

A technological explosion? Surpassing thousands of years of technological standards in a short time?

Would there be steam engines, internal combustion engines, followed by various technologies, gunpowder, hot weaponry...

And so on and so forth.

According to this trend, due to historical inevitability, these trends are almost certain!

Even if not exactly the same, something similar will definitely appear!

This is the inevitability of history!!

This civilization will surely advance towards a more glorious and prosperous era! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Three years and four months, in this place with a different time flow, Chen Yan has been reading the history of this "unknown race" for three years and four months.

During such a long time, it must be said, Chen Yan has actually developed a strong emotional bond with this "unknown race".

— Even when following a novel serialized for three years, you’d form a deep connection with the characters and stories in it!

Moreover, Chen Yan believes that Night Eye Tribe, Hunting Tiger Tribe, Earth Worshiping Tribe, Unified Dynasty...

All of this truly happened and is not fictional!

He wants to know where these people and stories headed later, whether they stepped onto a higher rung of the civilization ladder?

Did they enter the hot weapon era? Did they invent a more superior national social system?

Did they invent computers, did their civilization evolve to one similar to the modern world with skyscrapers and space shuttles...

However, the eighth underground level, this final layer, is empty!!

·

At this moment, Chen Yan’s mood was like watching "Game of Thrones" for eight years, clicking to watch the final episode of the eighth season, only to find on the screen the words "Haha, you were fooled, there’s nothing!"

Well, if the final episode of the eighth season of "Game of Thrones" was really like that, it might actually be a good thing. After all, in Chen Yan’s eyes, that last episode was so bad it was like crap, better if it didn’t exist!

But this didn’t prevent Chen Yan from standing at the entrance of the layer, looking at the empty hall, feeling like he was played with!

He quickly walked into the hall on the eighth underground level, the door behind him silently closing, which Chen Yan didn’t notice.

When he reached the center of the hall, Chen Yan unexpectedly felt relieved.

It wasn’t exactly empty; there was a small stone cabinet attached to the surrounding wall — although the cabinet was evidently very small, only three to five meters long, without the height reaching the ceiling like the others.

Compared to the previous levels, those enormous stone cabinets seemed like miniatures.

Chen Yan walked up eagerly to take a look.

The first thing he saw were some leather scrolls.

This discovery first startled Chen Yan.

Clearly, during the era of the Unified Dynasty’s Empress, the productivity was quite advanced, no longer using leather scrolls as a medium for recording text.

These scrolls did not seem to match that era.

Indeed, after picking up one and quickly browsing a few lines, Chen Yan’s expression immediately turned disappointed.

What was recorded here was the history of the Black Wood Tribe.

The Ghost Race Black Wood Tribe!

Browsing these few lines described the grand meeting when the first generation Cave Master of the Black Wood Tribe joined the eighteen tribes to co-found the Ghost Race.

Though Chen Yan had never seen these, he had no interest in them at the moment.

He searched through the cabinet and picked up different leather scrolls to examine, and disappointingly, all of them were the history of the Black Wood Tribe.

How the Black Wood Tribe waged wars on other tribes, subdued those who did not respect the ancestors’ Venerable authority, how they held ceremonies...

"Sigh..."

Chen Yan sighed, put down the leather scrolls, then turned around, looking at the empty hall, and couldn’t help but become lost in thought.

The civilization of that "unknown race," is there really no more records?

Where did they head towards? To which place?

Where do they actually exist, really in the Domain Realm? In which era do they exist?

If they truly existed in the Domain Realm, then how did they go extinct, how did they vanish later?

How did the Domain Realm turn into its current state?

No, are they truly the "ancient times" of the Domain Realm?

Originally, with great enthusiasm followed like a drama, but now nothing more to follow, Chen Yan could only sigh, dragging a stone bench over to sit on, zoned out for a while, then took out a bottle of beer, drinking it sip by sip.

Finally, he exhaled a long breath, showing a relieved expression on his face.

Chen Yan once again took down the first leather scroll placed in front of the stone cabinet, and began reading the history of the "Black Wood Tribe" word for word.

Perhaps, this is truly the documentation that should exist in this place — after all, this was the place of the Black Wood Tribe.
