Ashes Of Deep Sea

Chapter 560 - 560 559 The Displaced

?Chapter 560: Chapter 559: The Displaced Chapter 560: Chapter 559: The Displaced For a long time, scholars of this world had speculated about the origin of the current Deep-sea Era and the world before the Great Annihilation. They had also tried to explain the current phenomenon of historical severance, the discontinuation of artifacts, and contradictions in heritage among the City-States of the Endless Sea, just as any group forming a civilization would face history—

With history, there would be people studying it, and with people studying it, there would be attempts to explain the contradictions, guessing was never lacking. Anything that a layman could think of, professional scholars had likely thought of long before, perhaps even constructing complete theoretical models.

Indeed, scholars had numerous theoretical models that could explain the formation of the current Deep-sea Era—one of which was speculated by Duncan, and each of these models made sense.

The only problem was that none of the theoretical models had sufficient “empirical evidence” to back them up. The Great Annihilation, like a grand wall, blocked everything before that time point; no information or artifact could be passed down from before that node.

Now, Duncan believed he had found a crucial “piece of evidence” and had extracted key information sufficient to support one of the conjectures:

A fragment of some distant and alien world left after its destruction—as well as a precise description of the apocalyptic scene in the form of “memories.”

Of course, in front of a truly rigorous scholar, this solitary proof might still be inadequate and insufficient to fully and incontrovertibly explain the current state of the Deep-sea Era.

“World Amalgamation Theory…” Ted Riel murmured softly, “I know, my mentor has always been a supporter of this theory—he believes that the current Deep-sea Era is formed by a mass stacking and recombining of worlds that were originally isolated from one another, possibly caused by a catastrophe that struck several worlds simultaneously. What’s called the ‘Great Annihilation’ was not a single disaster but a series of simultaneous disasters, which accounts for the vast contradictions in the historical records of the various races on the Endless Sea, and some ancient legends are severely torn apart…”

“This theory also explains why we completely cannot find the ‘original appearance of the world’ before the Great Annihilation, nor any ‘ancient artifacts’ that could support any kind of historical record—because those original appearances have long been reshaped, from the perspective of the timeline, ‘this world’ did not exist before the Great Annihilation.”

He paused, took a light breath, then continued speaking.
