This discovery stunned the company's upper management. Based on ancient intelligence compiled by Talma, they believed that perhaps, in the distant past, Earth truly had an age of "mythology."
In the old era, there had been an ancient Eastern nation with a rich system of mythological tales. Beyond that, every other country and region had its own different myths as well.
Using Talma's formidable computing power, they worked backward, seeking to uncover what Earth had been like millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years ago.
Even with Talma's astonishing processing power, this calculation took ten years. Yet in the end, it gave them another shocking conclusion.
The age of mythology had truly existed. Before their current advanced technological path, this planet had also possessed brilliant Cultivation Civilization, Fantasy Civilization, Western Fantasy Magic Civilization, and more.
Yet every civilization had been erased by sudden catastrophes. Tracing their origins back to the source, they might all have come from the Sky Pit.
After learning this, the company's people were both thrilled and afraid. They were thrilled because they might have found the ultimate secret of this world. If Cultivation Civilization had truly existed, many of its theories might complement their technological civilization, bringing them even closer to the truth.
What terrified them was that, according to Talma's reverse deduction, every civilization that had once existed had also contained humans. Scientists had once made detailed deductions about the contingency of humanity's origins. They believed that if life had truly evolved from primordial soup, then even if intelligent life emerged again, it would never take human form.
Yet in Talma's deductions, no matter what kind of civilization it was, the humans within looked exactly like them.
This further confirmed the claims of those former cults: the world was a game,
