Chapter 717 The End of Longmian Continent
Time passes day by day, and ten years is just a blink of an eye.
In the autumn of the twelfth year of the Amber Calendar, the Shadow Flame Kingdom in the Dragon Sleep Continent seemed a little depressed, and most of the population had moved to the Amber Dream.
There were not many people left in the real world, including elves and fantasy beasts, which were already very rare. However, without the disturbance of humans, the Shadow Flame Kingdom was lush and green, radiating another kind of primitive wild beauty.
There was no snowfield long ago, only the changing seasons brought by spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Windwrath City.
It has been surrounded by heavy industry, huge chimneys are connected together, there are no environmental protection standards, and sewage is flowing.
There is almost no grass in a large area around it.
Even if the two-legged dragon flew over the city, it almost vomited, and the pungent smell rushed straight to the forehead.
But here is the prosperity that has never been seen in other places in the Shadow Flame Kingdom, with the roar of machinery and the hustle and bustle of traffic. There are factories and laboratories everywhere, and all kinds of innovations full of dangers and pollution are carried out here.
If the Amber Dream is a perfect new world, a painting destined to be passed down for billions of years.
Then the Dragon Sleeping Continent, which is destined to be extinct, is the best draft paper.
Woohoo!
The whistle of the train station sounded, and Nicholas, a great writer and playwright who wrote classics such as "The Dragon Riding Boy" and "Dragon Land Thunder", boarded the train at the train station with several servants and guards.
Following the train that has been converted into a diesel locomotive, it set off from the Windfury City and sped through the former fire ant swamp.
After passing through the deserted land, after a few days and nights, it arrived at the Warm Sun City, the capital of the Blazing Torrent Kingdom.
In the Amber Dream, various countries have formed the Amber Federation.
But in the Dragon Sleeping Continent, the kings, grand dukes and nobles are still maintaining the last rule and grabbing the last batch of resources - these resources will be provided to the Amber Dream to pave the way for the new world.
Get off at the train station near Warm Sun City.
Nicholas, with his servants and attendants, strolled through the streets of the city to collect folk songs. He was preparing for his new play "The End of Dragon Sleeping Continent", preparing to record how this world where humans have lived for billions of years is heading towards extinction in the last afterglow.
"Give me the camera." Nicholas said.
The servant immediately handed over a long-tube camera. Nicholas picked up the camera and kept shooting the somewhat deserted Warm Sun City.
The population of various countries has moved to the Amber Dream. Warm Sun City is not like Fury City, which has become an industrial and research and development center. Naturally, it has declined. The permanent population has dropped from more than 800,000 at its peak to more than 100,000 today.
These more than 100,000 people are still being lost.
The mining of the origin power of Dragon Sleeping Continent is about to come to an end. Without the origin power, the ubiquitous magic will naturally retreat, and it will no longer nourish the rich resources, and the minerals and products will become less and less.
I took a circle in the city.
Nicholas asked the servant to rent a car, drove out of the city, and went to the nearby mining area to shoot and collect folk songs.
There is a huge magnesia mine here, and the magnesia produced is an excellent thermal insulation material.
Although the snowfield has retreated, there is still a frost and snow mountain area in the Amber Dream, which has also gathered a large number of humans for development. The clothes they wear and the houses they live in need to be mixed with magnesia to resist the severe cold.
Rumble!
The huge mining equipment is constantly running, transferring the transported magnesia to the train.
Then it is transported to the Fiery Volcano through the rails.
The magnesia mine is transported to the Amber Dream through the portal between the Fiery Volcano and the Fiery Element Volcano.
For the construction of the Amber Dream, the Amber Federation will dig deep into the ground and move all the resources related to magic power in the Dragon Sleep Continent, leaving no trace.
"What a spectacular sight." Nicholas was full of admiration when taking pictures of the huge mining machinery, "It's only been more than ten years, and everything has changed dramatically from what I saw in my early years!"
Even the camera in his hand is the result of industrialization in recent years, and even the camera has been invented.
Film and TV projects have been approved for research.
"Master, it's getting late, we should go back." The servant came forward to remind him.
"Let's go." Putting down the camera, Nicholas got back into the car and returned to the hotel in Nuanyang City.
After dinner, he was busy sorting out the materials.
He sorted until midnight, and the servant who had followed him for many years couldn't stand it anymore: "Master, there is a long time to come, you don't have to work too hard on the new work, just take care of your health."
"The End of Dragon Sleeping Continent" must be written as soon as possible." Nicholas didn't even raise his head.
"But, sir, you still have plenty of time."
"How can I have that?" Nicholas put down his pen and glanced at the servant who had served him for many years. "To tell you the truth, I still have half a year to publish "The End of Dragon Sleeping Continent."
"Are you in such a hurry, sir?"
"After writing this play, I...may join the freezing plan, follow the great Majesty Russell, and go into deep sleep together, waiting for the day when we overlap with the Land of Eternal Starlight, and then wake up again."
Nicholas revealed this important news.
"Ah, sir..." The servant was shocked. He had followed Nicholas for many years and had been prepared to serve Nicholas for a lifetime. He never expected that Nicholas would be frozen. This freezing might mean that there would be no chance of seeing each other again.
"The great His Majesty Russell gave me a frozen spot, and I also want to see the place where the stars will shine forever."
Nicholas said simply.
The meaning is self-evident. He cherishes this opportunity very much. He is already in his early fifties and can only live for another twenty or thirty years at most.
In twenty or thirty years, the amber dream will never be able to anchor the place where the stars will shine forever.
If you want to see this alien world, you can only freeze and sleep until the day when the two worlds overlap.
"Master, you..." The servant choked and couldn't speak.
Nicholas smiled and said: "Don't be sad. If you don't want to leave, you can continue to work in my family. Although I am frozen and asleep, my children are still living in the amber dreamland."
"No, no, no, I'm not sad, I'm happy for you, sir." The servant wiped his tears, "Sir, you fell into a frozen sleep, which is equivalent to extending your life span... I hope you, sir, can write more brilliant works in the future. The masterpiece!”
"Haha, of course!" Nicholas laughed, "I am the royal playwright of the great Majesty Russell!"
He stood up and opened the curtains.
Looking at the bright starry sky outside, I was filled with emotion: "I followed the great Majesty Russell and witnessed one legend after another. If His Majesty Russell's footsteps never stop, my records will never stop!"
There was a pause.
He shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that I am just a mortal. Although I have the seed of fighting spirit, I have not been able to cultivate fighting spirit. My life span is less than a hundred years... The great Majesty Russell is destined to live forever. No matter how hard I freeze, I can't record the greatness." The life of His Majesty Russell!"
The servant was startled.
He responded softly: "Sir, you can witness the beginning of the legend of the great Majesty Russell, and share the legendary experience of the great Majesty Russell. It is already blessed by Mother Earth, and you will leave your name forever."
"Yeah, I'm already very lucky." Nicholas smiled and sat back on the chair, "Go and make me a cup of tea, I have to continue to organize the information... "The End of Longmian Continent" is not my end. !”
