"Legend had it that there was no fire in the world at all back then. Humanity's life was incredibly harsh. Without fire to cook food, they could only eat things raw."
"Without fire for light, they could only spend one long night after another in endless darkness."
"Prometheus, one of the gods, took pity on humanity. To bring them good fortune, he risked his life to steal a spark of fire from the Sun God. From then on, humanity had fire."
"Did anyone notice that this story bears some resemblance to the strangely appearing fire right now?"
The netizens froze, and some of the quicker ones immediately caught on.
"You mean the Greek Mythology story of stealing fire was based on what's happening now?"
Brave Niu Niu said, "That's right! Did you notice that the god in the Prehistoric Mural was depicted as the sun?"
"That earlier Divine Miracle, taken as a whole, didn't it look a bit like the sun descending?"
Brave Niu Niu continued, "And in Greek Mythology, Prometheus stole the Sun God's fire, and only then did fire exist in the world. Doesn't that mean there was no fire in the world before that?"
"Likewise, in Adan and the others' understanding, fire was given to them by the gods, and only afterward did fire appear in the world!"
"Aren't these two astonishingly similar? Doesn't it feel like an incredible coincidence?!"
"Gasp!"
Sharp intakes of breath rang out one after another.
"Oh my God! There's practically no difference, is there? They're way too similar! If they're unrelated, I'll livestream myself eating a keyboard!"
"I can't believe it. Brave Niu Niu is amazing!"
"666..."
One netizen after another cried out in shock.
At the same time, Professor Chen, Director Lu, and the others all thought of one possibility.
Did that mean that, in prehistoric times, gods might really have bestowed fire upon humanity?
Gasp!
The thought made people's scalps tingle. The more they thought about it, the more terrifying it became.
Could fire have appeared because of the gods' divine power?
Was the fire humanity took for granted actually a gift from the gods?
No! No! That wasn't scientific at all!
Gasps continued to sound all over the world, and people made an outstanding contribution to global warming.
At the same time, amid their shock, they suddenly felt something strange.
As they watched the film before them, a powerful sense of history washed over them, as though the truth of prehistoric times was slowly being unveiled piece by piece!
The netizens' shocked comments filled Brave Niu Niu with pride and accomplishment.
After everyone calmed down a little, they watched the film even more seriously.
The footage played on slowly, and night soon arrived.
The humans in the film used fire to deter the nocturnal beasts. The audience empathized with them and felt a little proud as well.
Just then, a long-awaited notification sounded.
Fire drove away the cold and fierce beasts. While bringing warmth to humanity, it also allowed them to eat cooked food.
A fierce beast burned to death by fire led Adan and the others to discover a whole new world, and they gradually began eating cooked food.
Before long, the scenery flashed past rapidly.
Another hundred years passed. The cave gradually became too crowded, and they began moving away.
Then, to shelter from the rain, Adan and the others gradually went from knowing nothing to learning how to build houses.
Seeing that Adan and the others had settled down, everyone thought they would slowly begin developing their tribe.
But just as they had found stability, Adan, the tribe's leader, suddenly gathered his children and grandchildren and said to them, "To show our reverence for the gods, how about we build a tall altar on the mountaintop?"
"What should it look like?" Habil asked in confusion.
"Let me think..." Adan fell into thought.
An altar?
Professor Chen and the others were taken aback, their brows furrowing slightly.
They did not pay much attention to the altar Adan had mentioned.
"I wonder what kind of altar they're going to build?"
"No idea, but it probably won't be much. With so few people, what kind of altar could they possibly build?"
"And their construction skills back then probably weren't that impressive, right?"
"Yeah!"
The netizens had no expectations and even found it a little boring.
Just when they thought the next stretch would be dull, three days later, Adan gathered everyone again.
He stood alone on a high place, with the crowd below him.
At that moment, he wore a broad smile and said reverently, "I've already thought of an altar worthy of the gods!"
"Since the gods live atop high mountains, and there are four rivers on the mountain, then to commemorate the gods, let's build an altar like a tall mountain, with four sides!"
Hawa and the others looked confused, unable to imagine what such an altar would look like.
But since it was Adan's idea, they naturally obeyed without question. They only needed to follow his instructions.
Their reverence for the gods also made them want to do more for them.
Under Adan's instructions, they began searching for materials to build the altar.
The netizens began discussing it as well.
"A building worthy of the gods, built to commemorate them?"
They were extremely curious.
"An altar like a high mountain with four sides... what would that look like? I really can't picture it."
"Sigh, I suddenly feel like my IQ isn't high enough."
"Yeah, yeah, I can't imagine what kind of building it would be either!"
They were utterly puzzled and simply could not picture the specific shape of the structure Adan had described.
At the Prehistoric Ruins.
After hearing the news, dozens of staff members rushed over early in the morning and gathered outside Professor Chen's tent.
Some of them were watching their phones alone, while others watched the computer in front of Professor Chen.
Inside the tent, Professor Chen listened to Adan's words and frowned slightly.
He fell into deep thought.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the building Adan described gave him an inexplicable sense of Déjà vu. It seemed somewhat familiar.
California, USA.
"Director Lu, what do you think that altar will look like?" James asked curiously.
Director Lu shook his head. Clearly, he could not imagine it either.
At that moment, nearly a billion viewers, including Professor Chen and Director Lu, stared intently at Adan and the others' movements.
Stones were continuously carried to the mountaintop, and under Adan's direction, the altar was slowly built.
The strange structure gradually took shape.
As it was continuously refined, it also gradually became familiar in everyone's eyes.
