    "In the age of gods, mortals cannot fathom it."

    Celine's sentence is equivalent to expressing the attitude of most people in the world towards "ancient civilization", which is that although they are unclear, they are aware of it and no one dares to study it to understand it - even clergymen like her dare not take it lightly.  toss.

    Now I can roughly guess what happened on this planet. The historical truth should basically be like this:

    A long, long time ago, there once existed a highly developed civilization on this planet. They at least had the ability to navigate in deep space, and they must have developed war technology that matched the level of their civilization (according to the particle we saw last night  rifles can be determined), this kind of civilization has the ability to develop, is proficient in war skills, and likes to delve into various death-defying secrets in the universe. Moreover, several ethnic groups are crowded on one planet. All these civilizations have one thing in common, then  It's extremely easy to kill yourself, because it's so easy for them to kill their entire race.

    So just a few years ago, they finally failed to live up to the laws of civilization development and Murphy's Law. Maybe an internal war broke out, maybe they accidentally got out of control while studying extreme technology, in short, they killed themselves.

    But this collective escapade incident did not lead to the complete extinction of civilization. Some people survived tenaciously, and a very small number of them were lucky enough to retain a little bit of technology (and magic, of course. In fact, I even suspected that the ancient civilization was science and technology.  self-destructed due to the war with demons). What these people thought back then is unknown, but they obviously believed that the cause of the end of the world was premature exposure to technology that should not be exposed to their own level of civilization, so they did not immediately  Instead of using the technical data at hand to revive civilization, we first study how to revive the population, and at the same time seal up these technical data.  These cautious and conservative survivors should be the predecessors of the Lost Cult.

    The original Lost God Cult was not extreme. Their motivations and actions for sealing up the war relics were actually reasonable: the end of the world, the race was in danger, and there must be many among the survivors who were filled with tyrannical thoughts. This kind of  In this case, war relics are extremely dangerous hidden mines. Once they continue to spread into the hands of those doomsday survivors who have nothing to fear and are not afraid of anything, it is difficult to say whether the entire planet will simply be blown up by those madmen, so the war relics are sealed  This behavior should have saved this civilization back then.  But we all know that the passage of time and the change of generations are the most likely to go wrong: after so many years, the original Lost Religion has been updated countless times, and it is even more difficult to ensure the integrity of the inheritance in that extremely difficult environment.  And people always have different ideas. In order to ensure that those dangerous war relics are not activated, the Lost God Religion must choose the most conservative person to be the pope in every generation. As this goes on from generation to generation, the original teachings have changed beyond recognition - the priesthood  The staff simply listed all knowledge related to ancient civilization as taboo, and even printing and advanced papermaking became something that only clergy could have access to. This can be said that the entire sect has become extreme.

    Moreover, they also created fictitious-sounding gods such as the "God of Technology" and the "God of Magic", and stated in their doctrine that they can only continue to study ancient knowledge when these two gods show their favor again.  Before this, even private research was banned - it has to be said that this planet has embarked on the worst path due to various circumstances. The guardians of civilization have forgotten their original mission. They originally made up stories to appease the people.  The lies have now deceived themselves. Just look at Celine's expression. She firmly believes that the God of Technology exists Then I guess this planet will never be able to wait for the day when technology can be reopened.

    "Mr. Scholar? Mr. Scholar?" Celine's voice woke her up from her thoughts. She looked at me curiously and suddenly fell into silence. "Do you have any questions? If it is about ancient civilization, I am willing to try my best to answer it for you.  This is the responsibility of the clergy.¡±

    "Ancient knowledge must be kept by the church, right?" I looked into the other person's eyes, "Then how does the church treat this knowledge? Will anyone use the excavated relics? Or will they be completely sealed?"

    This question is a bit out of bounds, because the answer to this question is likely to be common sense on this planet, or a "civilian taboo". Asking it rashly may arouse suspicion, but I feel that after getting along with it for a day or two, it has been resolved.  Being familiar with Celine, she probably wouldn't think too much about this kind of topic brought up during dinner table chat.

    "Of course the church must treat those things that have brought disaster with a more cautious attitude." Celine glanced at me with a slightly doubtful look, but did not pay too much attention. "As the canon says, high-ranking priests with a firm mind  We will study the ancient knowledge a little, but; Does it seem like their entire existence value is really just to guard knowledge, and don¡¯t care about anything else?

    The few locals who led the adventurers here should be town officials. One of them, a gray-haired old man, was probably the mayor of the town. But at this moment, he had to respectfully explain the situation to a "hotel proprietress".  Waiting for the other party's instructions, this wonderful scene made Sandora couldn't help but mutter: "It's a strange social structure. The clergy will only have absolute authority when certain things happen. In normal times, they live like ordinary people.  Celine's identity in the town is obviously just a civilian But once she starts dealing with ancient knowledge, her status and responsibilities change instantly? How did this planet develop such a strange social form? "

    Celine said some words that sounded unclear and harsh to a group of adventurers. Basically, she thanked God for his grace, thanked the Pope for his wise guidance, thanked the adventurers for their hard work, and thanked the old town mayor for actively responding to the call of the superior leaders of the diocese.  , and then asked a group of adventurers to go to the church to wait. By the way, they could sort the materials and items they collected according to the rules, and use the equipment in the church to do preliminary processing. As the church agent here, she herself  First, I have to wash the dishes in the kitchen before I can go to work

    It didn¡¯t feel very reliable, but no one at the scene expressed any objection. The large group of adventurers dispersed with a bang, taking the "treasure" they got in the morning, and set off for the church under the leadership of the mayor.

    Although those religious regulations seem very sacred and great, the actual process of dealing with ancient relics is still the same as the recycling bin: you first carry the things over and weigh them, and I will check out for you after I finish the work at hand!

    ?That¡¯s basically what it means.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
