The history series gas are not particularly outstanding on the Blue Star.
All because much of the history on the Blue Star was destroyed after that teor shower, and even now, with constant excavation, it’s impossible to piece together the complete history of each Federation. And now it’s an era where entertainnt prevails over everything.
Very few people are interested in history.
Regarding the [Chinese History Series] awards ceremony ntioned by Zhao Ming, countless company controllers and livestream viewers frowned below.
Is the Polestar Company getting too ambitious?
They’re diving into sothing so niche, do they really think whatever they make will beco popular?
Everyone here was frowning.
And as Zhao Ming’s voice fell on stage, the lights in the awards ceremony gradually dimd.
Only the large screen at the back slowly lit up with a scene, revealing a cave.
At the tip of a stalactite, water drops were gathering and slowly forming.
Drip!
A water drop fell onto the water surface, and the sound echoed within the cave.
Slowly erging was the pictographic character ’water’ (oracle bone script), accompanied by a bold line below.
[Water, the source of life, yet also humanity’s most terrifying enemy in ancient tis.]
The scene suddenly ascended to a high altitude.
The roaring waves thundered abruptly, and from the high-angle view, the land was engulfed by rampaging floods, mountains subrged by torrents, flooding everywhere in sight, making the Blue Star people watching the CG feel a tightness in their hearts.
The fear of nature that humans have involuntarily surged forth, an instinct etched into their bodies.
The scene continued to rise even higher,
Blue Star players could clearly see that this flood-subrged world bore so resemblance to the ’real-ti map’ of Earth on the Polestar Official Website, even though many places were inundated.
Yet the general plates and shapes still faintly discernible as the regions of Europe, Asia, and other areas on ’Earth’.
The perspective suddenly rushed downward.
[Nile Riverbank]
Overflowing rivers, laden with silt, washed over the banks, and ancient priests prostrated themselves before an altar, devoutly bowing toward the idol on the altar in prayer, followed by countless ragged ancient humans below who sought the gods’ grace.
Faced with such floods, it seed only the gods could save them.
The scene switched to another place.
[Euphrates Riverbank]
The roaring river, like thunder, swept across the land, and the gloomy sky poured with rain, turning the life-giving river into a monster devouring everything, flooding the land and forests, with countless human and animal corpses drifting with the currents.
In the rampaging waters floated a massive wooden ark, filled with countless animals and a family of devout believers.
All the animals were mimicking the devout believers in prayer, seemingly pleading with so unknown presence to forgive humanity.
The scene switched to another place.
[Ganges River Basin]
Rampaging floods swallowed village after village, and earthen buildings crumbled under the flood’s onslaught, while monks stood on altars, chanting and praying to a deity with hair like writhing snakes, seeking divine protection.
The floodwaters continued to rise, soon subrging the altars.
Everything vanished, the altar, the idol, and the praying monks...
At this mont.
Everyone on Blue Star watching this scene fell silent, unconsciously drawn in, also involuntarily placing themselves in that environnt, feeling only utter despair, as humans seed truly powerless against the floods.
But.... is it truly so?
Just as the Blue Star people were watching the scene, feeling the despair.
The scene cut back and slowly revealed.
[Yellow River]
Now turned into a vast ocean, muddy river waters washed over the land, and the surviving humans sheltered atop mountain peaks, eyes teary as they gazed at the corpses of their kinsn floating in the raging waters.
There were the elderly, infants, and those with arms raised stiffly upward....
Once revered altars now reduced to half-exposed stone pillars above the water’s surface, battered by the flood, with only half a stone pillar left unable to withstand the flood’s impact.
Countless people watched all this, not knowing what to do.
Despair seeped through the screen, surging from the scene, hitting the hearts of the Blue Star viewers, what to do? What could be done?
Suddenly.
In the mountains, a mud-covered person stood up, wiping away tears with a raised hand, stooping to pick up a tortoise shell swept ashore by the Yellow River’s tempest, with the character ’water’ inscribed on it.
Looking at that ’water’ character, the mud-covered man picked up a stone tool and carved a structure-like shape to the right of the ’water’ character.
’Control’
Having inscribed the character, the man held up the tortoise shell in his hand, gazing at the world turned into a vast ocean, his eyes becoming resolute.
The scene slowly revealed a few bold lines.
[When other civilizations prayed to the gods, the ancestors of Huaxia inscribed the first ’control’ character on oracle bones.]
[On the left is water, on the right is a platform, the original aning of ’control’ was to build dikes to prevent floods.]
[Floods were not divine punishnts but the entry exam for Huaxia civilization.]
[The first rebellion of this nation.... was declaring war on nature.]
With this character inscribed.
The ancestors of this tribe began to battle the floods, piling stones to build dikes, dredging river channels, passing the task from father to son, never stopping, but with the civilization level of ancient humans, how could they manage flood control?
The ancestors of the tribe in the scene, though ceaselessly striving through generations, still faced inevitably, periodically raging floods.
