To be honest, hearing the phenomenon of "black trap" from Tyre suddenly increased Gao Wen's heart with indescribable pressure.

In addition to the demon tide... there may be other threats in this world, which are large enough to cause the extinction of civilizations. What is even more terrifying than the demon tide is the invisible and intangible nature of this threat, even if the sirens who have experienced more than a dozen changes in the demon tide, have not been able to understand the essence of this threat for countless years.

This is undoubtedly an extremely disturbing fact.

Gao Wen's face was serious and gloomy. He pinched his chin without saying a word and fell into deep thought. Tyr was waiting quietly by the side until Gao Wen suddenly exhaled, and the sirens said slowly: "Are you suddenly a little desperate?"

Gao Wen's answer was only a short word: "No."

"You don't have to force yourself. It is normal to cause huge pressure when encountering this situation," Tyr shook his tail very well, and made a slap sound on the rocks on the shore. "After all, the biggest crisis you can imagine is the magic tide. Now I suddenly know that there is more than one magic tide, who can be calm..."

"You are right. I do feel the pressure, but my mentality has not collapsed yet, let alone despair," Gao Wen sighed, and his expression eased a little. "The phenomenon of 'black trap' you mentioned...maybe it does exist, but for me, the magic wave is still ranked first. If even the magic wave can't stand it, considering the 'black trap' that is unknown at all will only be in vain. I don't have to lose my fighting spirit for this illusory disaster."

Tyre looked at Gao Wen quietly for a moment, and suddenly burst into laughter exaggeratedly: "You... you guy is really interesting... Haha... Why didn't I find it before... No wonder you guy can talk to us Siren... You must be a very popular guy in our Siren society."

Gao Wen looked at Tyre's smile that almost pushed himself into the river, and his expression was inevitably a little embarrassed: "As for such an exaggeration?"

"Your mentality is very good." Tyr reluctantly stopped smiling, jumped hard with his tail and leaned against Gao Wen, looking at the expression on the latter's face, "Are you really not afraid? Even if you really find a way to survive in the demon tide, you may have to face the challenges that will come later, are you really not afraid?"

"Humans are a kind of creature that is afraid of death, but few people will give up their lives because of fear of death. People will only strive to survive because of fear of death," Gao Wen said frankly. "For us, whether it is the Demon Tide or the 'Black Trap', they are similar things that are unknown, deadly, and seem unsolvable, but we have made up our minds to survive when the Demon Tide comes, and we can only go to the darkness of this road."

Speaking of this, Gao Wen raised his head and looked at the starry night sky with some trance.

"Calm down and think about it, and I realized that even if the 'black trap' exists, for us, it just changes from one to two problems. What's so scary?"

Tyre listened to Gao Wen's words and suddenly sighed again: "...If you live in the Siren Society, you will definitely be a very popular person."

"Why do you say that?"

"Simons are also a race that is very self-comfortable. We are optimistic and persistent. You are very similar to us," Tyre said seriously. "To be honest, most Simons don't like land people very much. In our eyes, land people are a creature that develops very quickly but always kills themselves quickly. You lack vision, are passionate and keen on short-term interests, and do not value commitments, but I must admit... your passionate and hopeful society is also fascinating."

Gao Wen didn't know what to answer for a moment, so he had to keep smiling, which was considered to have accepted Tyre's praise.

After quieting for a while, Tyre continued: "Actually, we have no research on the black trap. Although we have never understood how it happened and have not observed its specific manifestation, we have a guess about it..."

Gao Wen blinked: "Conjecture?"

"The civilizations that encountered the black trap have one thing in common, that is, they have all developed to a very high level, and at least they can survive in the demon tide. Even civilizations that were suddenly destroyed before the demon tide came, they already have the ability to protect themselves in the next demon tide. This is confirmed by our observers," Tyr explained seriously. "We think... the black trap may be a filter. As long as the civilization development reaches a certain threshold, a devastating thing will be activated to destroy this season of civilization... You should understand what I said, right?"

Tyre seemed to have opened up the topic and couldn't help but talk more and more. At the end of the conversation, he suddenly remembered that Gao Wen was a "backward land man", so he couldn't help but add the last sentence.

"Of course I can understand. The level of civilization in the Gondor era is not low," Gao Wen said, frowning deeply, "But the filter you mentioned...if this is true, then the situation will be terrible..."

As long as civilization develops to a certain extent, it will be destroyed by some external factor?

Is this kind of thing really there in this world?

"We are just guessing, because according to our observations, all civilizations that have developed to a certain height have been destroyed, and an invisible threshold is stuck there, and none of the civilizations destroyed exceeds it, so we can only judge that the 'black trap' is a filter."

"Have you calculated this 'threshold'?" Gao Wen asked suddenly staring at Tyr's eyes, his tone very serious, "Does it have any iconic 'points'? For example, a key technology has been broken through, or has humans stepped into a key area?"

"I'm sorry, I can't summarize it. On the one hand, we missed the black trap every time, and could only see the remains after the destruction. There is no way to infer what the land civilization was doing before the black trap broke out. On the other hand, every magic tide is resetting the magic environment. The technical routes taken by civilizations in each season are very different, and there is no comparison between each other," Tyr shook his head, "We can only roughly give a standard now, that is, at least civilizations that can survive in the demon tide can be 'qualified' to be destroyed by the black trap."

Gao Wen frowned and pondered, and suddenly thought of a key question: "...Does those destroyed civilizations surpass you?"

"...No," Tyr knew what Gowen wanted to say, and she answered calmly, "We Siren are civilizations that have almost destroyed once, but our remaining technical power still exceeds those onshore civilizations, and we... did not encounter the black trap."

The technical strength is higher than the land civilization and lasts longer than the land civilization. He has survived more than one season in the demon tide, and the sirens who are both sung and jumping... have not encountered the black trap.

All this was expected by Gao Wen, and this fact was why Gao Wen was doubtful about what Tyre called the "black trap filter".

What triggers the black trap is not necessarily the progress in the technical field. Perhaps it is because the land civilization accidentally touched it in other aspects, of course, it may be other reasons. For example, the special life form of the Siren saves them from the black trap, or... the black trap will only happen on land?

Gao Wen expressed his thoughts, and Tyre immediately denied: "Not only on land, there is a civilization that once developed strong ocean navigation technology. Their maritime self-discipline platform and seawater extraction factory even opened to our territorial sea and built a semi-permanent residential dome in the sea, but they suddenly died. They were clearly talking to us about the development of submarine heat source a month ago. A month later, we sent representatives to come over, but found that the entire dome was abandoned and full of corpses..."

Gao Wen frowned: "The reason was not found out at that time?"

"No. When the delegation discovered it, their dome had been abandoned for half a month, and a lot of evidence had disappeared. However, we found that their dome shield was closed from the inside. They should have turned off their protection and drowned."

Gao Wen opened his mouth and was stunned for a while, but in the end he could only say one word: "Strange..."

"Yes... it's very strange," Tyre said slowly, and then suddenly thought of something, "By the way, it seems... there is a season of destruction of civilization that seems to be different from other things... Their destruction is related to an ancient race."

"Ancient race?"

"Dragon," Tyre said a word that surprised Gao Wen, "that civilization was destroyed in a war involving dragons. It was a long time ago. At that time, a land empire suddenly rose and they developed very quickly and quickly dominated the entire land. They had some contact with us, but before we could even understand in depth, the war suddenly broke out.

"One party participating in the war was the land empire, and the other one was the dragon. Now dragons rarely appear on the continent. You all regard them as legendary creatures. But in the war in ancient times, dragons almost flew from the north. They did not look like hidden races at all, but actually participated in the war...

"We still don't know which side of the war was initiated first, but the reason for the outbreak of the war seems to be related to faith, because the dragon destroyed a large number of temple facilities in the land empire at the beginning of the war, which was a targeted attack.

"The battle was very fierce, and the strength of both sides of the war was almost equal. The dragon died a lot. Our observers could not even get too close to the war zone because they were already red-eyed. As long as they were not their own people, they would attack.

"That war lasted for ten years and so long was different from the ordinary 'black trap' phenomenon. Other civilizations that perished by the black trap disappeared quickly and finally fought. The dragon won tragically, and the prosperous land empire was destroyed.

"According to sporadic information brought back by our observers, the land empire at that time called the year of war's outbreak the 'year of tide', so they also called the war a 'battle against the tide'."

"Fight against the Tide..." Gao Wen always feels unreal when he listens to this magnificent story from ancient times. This story is too far away from today's era, and now it is told by Tyr, which is inevitably serious inconsistency. But he believes Tyr will not make up such a story to make you happy. "Indeed, it is different from the 'black trap' you described before."

"That's right, the duration is long, the reason is clear, and we have observed it, so we have never determined whether the "War of the Tide Against the Tide" was a 'black trap phenomenon', but one thing is certain that if the War of the Tide Against the Tide Against the Black Harvest has a certain connection, then the dragon must know something."

Gao Wen couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Did you ask me to find the dragon to inquire about the information?"

"What if there is a chance?" Tyre shook his tail, "and I just give you some ideas, it's not me who thinks of it anyway."

Gao Wen: "…"
