From the perspective of the real universe, this world has never been reshaped, and the future will not be reshaped by any kind of demon tide.

Even though he had experienced so many bizarre and strange lives, witnessed countless incredible miracles, and even himself was an "abnormal" Gao Wen himself couldn't help but get his breathing rhythm at this moment, and a feeling of completely subverting his views enveloped him. He opened his eyes wide, and his thoughts surged in his mind. His long-term understanding of the world was shaken at this moment, making him begin to doubt all his judgments and guesses about the world.

But the mentality of the experience over the endless years finally played a role. His brief wavering did not affect his ability to think rationally. Soon he gathered up his drifting thoughts and summarized the main information about the magic tide and the laws of the universe that Enya revealed to him so far:

From the perspective of the real universe, this world will not be reshaped by the demon tide. The existence of all things in the world is indeed stable and orderly, but from the perspective of the observer (reasonable intelligent creatures), the reshaping of all things in the world will indeed occur, and it is the inevitable result of the demon tide; on the other hand, the "observer effect" of this universe presents a chaotic and macroscopic state, and the observer's cognition of the universe will truly act on "their own world". The observer's universe and the real universe are mapped like shadows and ontology. Under normal circumstances, they accurately overlap, so the observer itself is stable. However, in the environment of the demon tide, the two will shift, and the observer will be swallowed by the crazy wrong image they see...

The demon tide does have a difference between "big" and "small", but according to Enya, the so-called small demon tide is actually some kind of unformed "demon tide trembling". In terms of "not affecting the entities in the real universe", it is no different from the real demon tide. The catastrophe experienced by the refugees of the Gondor Empire seven hundred years ago... is actually not the essence of the demon tide at all, but just the shock wave after the explosion of the Deep Blue Well.

At this moment, Gao Wen didn't know whether this was a good or a bad thing. He only knew that this bizarre world had a veil in front of him, and under the veil... what was revealed was a more wanton and chaotic world.

His eyes fell on Enya's eggshell: "What you mean is that whether it is the chaotic magical environment in the wasteland of Gondor or the crystal ore rough stones we mined in the dark mountains, they are actually just 'reaction products' formed by the high-intensity magic radiation on specific matters. The mortals seven hundred years ago... were not actually affected by the demon tide, whether it is the big demon tide or the small demon tide..."

Eunya's voice was dull: "It's true."

"What exactly is the 'little demon tide'? What is the 'unformed tremor'?" Gao Wen asked again, "This means that it is still part of the tide of great demon tide, but it has not exploded? Or is the tide of great demon and the tide of little demon tide essentially continuous, two stages of a disaster, and the mortal countries are now just lucky to live temporarily in the intervals of this disaster?"

"In fact, both of these statements are correct," Enya said slowly, "You must know that I am not omniscient and omnipotent. My understanding of the Demon Tide is also based on long observations and research, speculation and verification. I can only tell you the details I know-

"The Demon Tide is a natural phenomenon in this world. It occurs in irregular cycles. There will always be several small-scale bursts between large outbreaks, and the specific timetable is almost impossible to predict. The Small Demon Tide shows the same characteristics as the Great Demon Tide in some characteristics, but the difference is that its burst is often local. The Great Demon Tide will sweep across the entire celestial system, while the Small Demon Tide is often limited to a certain continent or even a certain kingdom. The explosion of the Small Demon Tide is relatively short and has weaker intensity, and it may not necessarily completely destroy observers within the range of the outbreak—there are many ways to weaken or offset it."

"The little demon tide can be weakened or offset..." Gao Wen suddenly thought of something, "Wait, you mean..."

"If you cannot master accurate skills, you can only fight with brute force - a short-term ultra-high-intensity magic burst can compress the magic power in the turbulent layer of the planet's atmospheric atmosphere and form an energy field with a huge coverage range. The essence of the magic tide is still a magic phenomenon, so it will be affected by this energy field and even annihilated by it. The energy field that bursts out is indeed terrible. It is enough to trigger regional ecological extinction, but at least, some lucky seeds can survive in marginal areas.

"Seven hundred years ago, there was only one energy source that met this condition in the entire Loren continent-"

"The Deep Blue Well." Gao Wen's face darkened and he said in a deep voice.

"Detonating the Deep Blue Well was the most effective way to prevent the scale of the 'forth tremor' from expanding, and it was also the only way that could be done at that time."

"So the Deep Blue Well was indeed detonated intentionally?!" Gao Wen opened his eyes in an instant and stared at Enyan's eggshell that was wandering with light golden runes. "Is it the one that detonated it..."

"Don't get me wrong, it's not me," said the golden dome. "I am just the guardian of the dragon clan. My duty restricts me to Tallond, so naturally I cannot interfere with what happened on the Loren continent - the Deep Blue Well was indeed detonated, and the detonation of it was the gods who protect the various Loren races."

"What do you mean is the gods detonated the Deep Blue Well?!" Gao Wen stared at his eyes and took a long time to breathe gently. He couldn't help but think of a guess that had just appeared not long ago, and smiled with a little self-deprecating smile, "Actually, I had just guessed that there was another hidden behind the explosion of the Deep Blue Well. Now it seems that there is indeed another hidden behind it, but it has nothing to do with my guess at that time..."

As he said, he frowned again. A puzzle that had troubled humanity for a long time suddenly appeared in his heart, as if there was an answer: "Wait, I suddenly remembered that not long after the outbreak of the demon tide, the priests of the major churches lost their connection with their respective gods. The gods were silent for a whole year. It was not until the meeting of the Ancestor Peak that the power of the gods gradually returned to this world... Could it be that the detonation of the Deep Blue Well was the reason why the gods fell asleep?!"

En Yasi thought about it before answering Gao Wen's question: "In fact, I cannot be sure of the specific situation at that time - as you know, there are problems of mutual pollution and interference between gods, so we cannot establish a direct connection. Usually, we can only roughly judge the state of other gods by observing the bottom of the world - according to what you understand, namely the ripples in the ‘deep sea’. I can only be sure that the gods who protected Loren continent at that time interfered with the energy flow of the Deep Blue Well, but who was specific, how to intervene and the other party's subsequent state could not be determined.

"Similarly, I can't determine how many gods were involved in this matter at that time... it might be one, or more than one. The huge energy fluctuations of the Deep Blue Well are enough to penetrate all the realms of the world. The interference generated will form a huge black barrier in the deep sea. What happened in that big explosion... I don't even know.

"But there is one thing I can answer you--the year-long sleep of the gods Loren at that time was not affected by the explosion of the Deep Blue Well."

"It's not affected by the Deep Blue Well?" Gao Wen asked in surprise, "What's the reason?"

"The church's operation was shut down, the parish structure collapsed, the original regular religious activities were suddenly stopped, and most importantly... the population dropped sharply," Enya said in a low voice, "Don't forget that the subject that supports the faith is enough population, the foundation of the gods is believers, and the catastrophe seven hundred years ago... was too many people dead. This is a heavy blow to the god Loren who has not yet broken free from the "chains" and must rely on thoughts to maintain their operation."

Gao Wen subconsciously held his breath and took a long time to slowly exhale this breath.

"But I still have a question," he asked immediately, "After the 'demon tide' seven hundred years ago, although countries tried to get rid of the impact of the disaster, the population rebounded not overnight. In just one year, no significant population increase in the four kingdoms. Even due to food shortages and monster nuisances, there was a slight decline in population in Tifeng and Ansu. In this case, the gods recovered. How do you explain this?"

"It is this harsh situation that leads more people to seek sustenance for faith," Enya explained patiently. "You should know the situation at that time - how many people became devout believers in difficulties? How many people who originally did not believe in God or only had shallow faith prayed all night in the cold and hunger intercourse? Not everyone is a strong hero, most ordinary people are fragile, and desperate situations transformed them from shallow believers and pan-believers to devout believers. Therefore, although your population did not increase at that time, the number of devout believers increased - which accelerated the return of the gods."

Gao Wen showed a sudden appearance, and then thought: "Under the situation at that time, it was a good thing for the power of gods to return to the world, which solved the urgent needs of many countries, but in the long run... this also laid the root of disaster for the excessive expansion of various churches in the future, and the attempts of the power of the church to influence the power of the monarchy... and even had an impact on our plan for the theocratic Council today."

"In the face of historical standards, the right and wrong of many things should be viewed separately."

"You are right," Gao Wen sighed softly, and at the same time he quickly sorted out his thoughts, looking for any other problems he had left out. Soon he had something he wanted to ask again, "Wait, I have another question - according to your statement, the magic tide will affect the 'connection' between the 'observer' and the real universe, causing their cognition to be offset. How did the dragon clan not be affected by this? What is the way to survive the magic tide safely again and again?"

The sound in the golden dome was silent, and after a few seconds, she softly reminded her voice: "This has involved specific techniques, Gao Wen."

Like a gust of cold wind blowing on this summer afternoon, Gao Wen finally suddenly cooled down from the excitement brought by continuous important knowledge. He realized that his discussion with Enya had penetrated into a very dangerous field, but he still couldn't help but confirm: "Can't this part of it be said? You have told me so many things involving basic concepts..."

"Knowledge is different from technology. Although knowledge that is too advanced is also dangerous and may even be polluted, it at least requires a process of learning and transformation. You can gradually accept these knowledge in the process of learning and understanding them, and verifying them. Even if they are harmful, they can minimize the harm. But technology... technology that crosses the research process will one day show toxicity. The dragon clan has already learned enough profound lessons in the turbulence against the tide."

Enya's words left Gao Wen speechless, but the feeling of "the answer is right in front of him but is blocked by a thin barrier" still made him feel particularly uncomfortable, but fortunately, a gentle voice came from the golden dome soon. Enya continued: "Of course, I just can't tell you the technology directly, which does not mean that I can't point you some direction - especially after you and the Dragon Clan both paid such a huge price, the mortals in this world should go further on the road to survival.

"Although the magic tide is a very terrible natural phenomenon. For unprotected observers, the disaster it brings is extinct, but its duration is not long. Each magic tide usually ends within a planet's revolution period, and the longest record as far as I know will not exceed two cycles. All you have to do is survive in these to two planetary revolution periods.

"The key to survival is to isolate the influence of the demon tide on the observer. As long as the observer's mind is not affected, no matter how strong the demon tide is, it is actually just a breeze to you.

"The key to Tallond's unaffectedness in the Demon Tide is that the shield system that once enveloped the entire continent - the ancient Tallond Great Shield can not only provide protection against the material world, but also deflect the impact of the Demon Tide on the observer's mind. In the past one million years, whenever the Demon Tide comes, the dragon clan will collectively return to the Great Shield to escape the world's "mental exile" and then come out to move after the Demon Tide ends... and count the relics after the destruction civilization disappears."

"So, the key to the problem is the Tarlond Great Shield," Gao Wen stared at Enya's eggshell, "The key to resisting the magic wave is in the ruins of the Great Shield. As long as we assist the dragon clan in rebuilding that shield, and learn step by step in the process and master this key technology, we can..."

"Unfortunately, this is exactly the most troublesome place," Enya interrupted him without waiting for Gao Wen to finish speaking, "First of all, the Great Shield is too old. It was built in the glorious era of Tallongd more than one million years ago. Its core technology is huge and complex. Even a great mechanic like Baloger cannot fully master it. With today's dragon clan, there is no possibility of repairing the Great Shield at all. Not to mention that in the active era of Omega, the Great Shield has experienced dozens of self-upgrading iterations. Now the shield generators remaining on the wasteland of Tallongd are no longer something that the flesh and blood brain can understand... I'm afraid that only Omega himself knows the complete blueprint of the system.

"Secondly, even if the shield generator itself is fixed, the large shield does not have complete protection functions, because the "core component" used to protect the observer is not a system inside the shield."

Gao Wen subconsciously raised his eyebrows: "The core component used to protect the observer is not in the generator of the big shield? Then it is..."

"It's me," Enya said lightly, "The key to the dragon clan's resistance to the invasion of the demon tide is that they have found a way to transform divine power into shields - but the mythological age is over."

Gao Wen: "…"

After a long half minute of stunnedness, Gao Wen finally spoke out: "So, what the dragon clan broke not only their chains at the coming-of-age ceremony, but also their key means of resisting the magic wave? This..."

"As you said, the Tallond shield with me as the core is the key to their civilizations that have survived so many seasons in the Demon Tide. It is therefore, that I and they had to endure for so long in this two-way shackle, but such a harsh balance is always broken... Although I have been carefully maintained, my divine part has reached the critical point of losing control many years ago. Heragore is very clear about this point," Enya's voice sighed, "Do you still remember what I said? There is no truly eternal thing in the world. Even if they don't break the cradle, it is impossible for this balance to last too long."
