The energy of the Eighth World mainly comes from the earth, whether it is tides, climate or even the switching of seasons, and the flow of the magic network is naturally no exception.
Generally speaking, the energy of the earth flows from west to east, but just like a river becomes turbulent when it encounters a narrow place, due to the uneven distribution of energy veins, coupled with the chaotic magic (released when creatures use magic) The mutual exclusivity of magic power (or used magic power) and pure magic power (natural free magic power that does not have the characteristics of magic power) will create some nodes where magic power gathers in large quantities.
Among them, the Demonic Nexus, which is the "heart" of the Demonic Network, gathers a high concentration of chaotic magic power, so that other creatures cannot use the magic power here. The elemental life forms born here are more powerful and more manic than those in other places in the outside world.
However, magic power is only a type of energy after all. Unlike the magic network, the energy of the underground veins does not converge at the magic hub, but normally flows eastward, and finally converges at the easternmost place on the continent close to the boundary wall. The energy of the earth veins here is very abundant, even condensed into essence, and it will fluctuate with the energy tide.
Earth energy is the aggregate of all the energy in the eighth world. It was personally designed by the seven worlds at the beginning of creation. It is also the main reason why the eighth world can resist the devouring of the demon world. Therefore, this energy is naturally the main force against the dark moon. Based on this characteristic, the seven worlds created the sun well and the fort called "Yi" in it to gather this energy and launch it.
In order to ensure that the energy of the sun can always suppress the power of the dark moon, the eighth world was a pure polar day at the earliest. The suns were launched from the sun wells one by one, and then fell into the corners of the earth where the energy was the thinnest, extinguished, and finally returned to the earth. If converted according to the current time of day, basically the sun cannon will shoot out nine suns every day. Therefore, the Eighth World has an idiom "shooting for nine days" to describe overwork, which is similar to the meaning of 996.
However, although this can prevent the dark moon from strengthening the demons, the flow rate of the earth's energy is not enough to support the continuous launch, so the production of the sun has changed from the natural convergence of the earth's energy to extraction from the sun well. If you look at the underground veins as a pipeline, due to the continuous absorption at one end, the circulation of energy in the earth veins is accelerated, and the final result is that the environment of the eighth world becomes very harsh.
Due to the harsh climate on the ground and the continuous sunlight in the sky, it is conceivable that the Eighth World will gradually transform into a desolate place unsuitable for any living creature to survive.
Although this situation is not what the world will of the seven worlds likes to see, once the eighth world has taken shape, as a "shield" specially designed to fight against the demon world, even the seven worlds, as the creators, cannot continue Intervene. Secondly, the will of the world actually does not pay too much attention to the well-being of ordinary creatures in the world.
In the end, it was the first five leaders of the human race who took action to change everything. According to records, Suojia discovered that the energy of the earth's veins will change periodically at a natural rate, which is called a major cycle. There are also very short small cycles in the big cycle. The energy of the earth itself will become stronger and weaker, so a small cycle is regarded as a day. The stronger half is divided into daytime, and the weaker half is divided into night.
After that, Suojia changed the firing cycle of the solar cannon, firing only one sun every day that was naturally gathered by the energy of the earth's veins, and adjusted its orbit to the gap between the boundary walls, so as to minimize the direct radiation to the living creatures on the ground. . Since the sun usually moves during the day, it in turn allows the leyline energy to fight against the dark moon during its strongest period, greatly improving energy utilization efficiency.
After that, the white moon and the blood rabbit turned into the moon one after another, solving the problem of the night. Moreover, it is said that the reason why these two moons can persist is not only because of the power of their owners, but also the energy replenished by the sun when it passes overhead during the day.
It can be said that without the sacrifices of the five leaders, the Eighth World would not have developed into the prosperous state it is today.
And this matter is also the main reason why everyone thinks that the mysterious first-generation principal is Suojia himself. After all, without extremely terrifying space magic attainments, it is impossible to embed the sun's orbit into the gap between the boundary walls. However, this is the only principal whose identity can be verified. The identities of the second, third, and even the current fourth generation of principals remain a mystery.
"If that's the case, then I don't understand something." Yi Liuling asked, "Since the sun is isolated from space and has nothing to do with changes on the ground, why do the lengths of day and night still appear throughout the year? What about changes?”
"That's the great cycle I just mentioned," Annabel explained. "The orbit of the sun is fixed, but its speed changes with the speed of the earth's veins. The faster it flies, the shorter the day will be. And the energy The faster it flows, the longer its period of weakness is, and it is more suitable for long nights, which I guess Leader Suojia also considered at the beginning."
"So that's it," Yi Liuling understood, "so here it's equivalent to the inversion of cause and effect. It's because the four seasons are divided first, and then the corresponding length of day and night is produced."
"Yes," Annabel nodded, "but because of the characteristics of the sun, the distribution of time during the day is actually uneven. Our eighth county is close to the middle of the continent, and our morning and afternoon are almost the same. But close to This is not the case in the eastern and western regions. For example, the easternmost towns do not have mornings, and the sun is overhead almost as soon as it rises."
"Oh, no wonder." Yi Liuling remembered that when she was watching TV before, a host had ridiculed the difference between East and West. "People in the east like to have afternoon tea, and people in the west like to have morning tea. It's also because they have more time. Bar?"
"How is that possible?" said Annabelle.
"Ah?" Yi Liuling was stunned for a moment. Could it be that he had guessed wrong that this was not a geographical difference but a cultural difference?
"Oh, I'm not talking about you." Annabell clicked a few times on the alchemy screen nearby and pointed out the printed results to Yi Liuling. "I'm talking about your test results. Two... High-energy soul energy core.”
"Oh, isn't it normal to have two?" Yi Liuling remembered that Yousheng also absorbed energy in the purple tower, "I am a summoner."
"I'm talking about soul energy, not consciousness." Annabel shook her head, "You Sheng is your contract and is attached to your soul. It is impossible to form a core alone, so this energy can only come from To another human race.”
She emphasized the word "human race" very strongly.
"You don't mean..." Yi Liuling suddenly felt horrified when she heard this, and was not in the mood to chat anymore, "That Qi Qian wants to seize my body, right?"
