"The dark history?"
Fang Yu glanced at Zhao Chenlin, his expression shifting slightly.
"Yes!"
After a moment's hesitation, Zhao Chenlin spoke: "Actually, it's not something that can't be told."
"At the end of the Alchemy Era, with the gradual solidification of the Alchemy Empire's rule and social stratification, the people were in dire straits. The Alchemists, in the form of religious sects, monopolized everything, cutting off all paths to knowledge, resources, and advancement."
"Even as their power grew, many sects forced the lower class to conduct potion and prosthetic experiments under the guise of research."
"It was extremely brutal and dark."
"Later, as if the heavens had eyes, the Alchemy Empire's excessive mining of land and metals led to geological issues and changes in the world's rules. The ocean submerged the land, transforming this world into an Ocean World."
