After evolving from an eagle-man into an angel, I annihilated the gods.

"What?! A shelter?!"

Even though Jiang You was well-informed and a time traveler, he was still somewhat bewildered by the question.

He looked at the human girl in front of him with hesitation and said tentatively.

"Why do you say that?"

The human girl looked at Jiang You's expression, reaction, and answer, and immediately showed disappointment.

The shelter is a high-tech creation built by the human race at the end of the pre-era to escape disaster and preserve their bloodline.

Although over the endless years, many shelters collapsed, and the humans who remained inside died silently.

But the girl must have some human blood, which is why she decided to come to the Winged People's territory with the goblin messenger when she heard about their appearance and characteristics.

Unfortunately, although the winged king in front of us looks almost identical to a human, he is ultimately not of human origin!

She shook her head and forced a smile.

"It's nothing, Your Majesty the Winged King. I misspoke."

She was about to turn and leave.

Standing before her, Jiang You frowned as he looked at the human girl, then a sudden inspiration struck him!

In the previous expansion pack, there were indeed some scattered introductions to the previous era on the continent of Ferrand.

As a veteran player from the Flanders, it's not unreasonable for him to impersonate a human from a previous era and gain some benefits.

He was still quite envious of the goblins' current rapid development.

Then he coughed softly.

"Airships, trains, seafaring, steam!"

He'd been through a lot of steampunk in his past life!

The girl seemed frozen in place.

With each word Jiang You uttered, the human girl's eyes brightened a little more.

When she turned her head, she saw Jiang Youwen looking at her with delight.

"Do you know what our past was like? Are you indeed one of my people?"

Jiang You shook her head.

"I am not, or rather, I was once a human being!"

"Also, I didn't come out of the shelter!"

He deliberately blurred the lines between humans and the human race, and what he said was all true.

But the girl clearly didn't care. She stared at Jiang You, her beautiful eyes filled with hope.

"Whether you have human blood or not, my eyes and soul tell me that your soul is one hundred percent human!"

"My dear people, if in the future, the descendants of humanity forget everything, please tell them about humanity's glorious past. No matter how destitute or humble we are now, we must live on tenaciously and wait for the opportunity to rise again!"

"Also, please provide them with shelter in times of crisis!"

Upon hearing the girl's pessimistic words, a question mark appeared on Jiang You's forehead.

"Are you having such a hard time right now? I remember you were once very high-ranking among the goblins, weren't you?"

The beautiful girl with long golden hair shook her head bitterly.

"In our shelter, the powerful Sequencers are all dead, and the remaining people are no match for those extraordinary goblin beings!"

"We had just woken up when the goblins broke into our shelter, and we didn't even have time to use the weapons in the shelter to fight them!"

"But your weapons, capable of dealing with powerful Titans, are ineffective against goblins?"

Jiang You was even more puzzled.

"The reason we can deal with the Titans is because the Titans have the blood of our human race! They may have evolved from our human creations a long time ago!"

"So it's incredibly effective against them. But goblins are different; they're not weak against us!"

The human girl explained.

"So that's it!"

Jiang You finally understood.

The human girl continued.

"Going back to the question, it seems to everyone that we have a high status among goblins, but that's actually an illusion!"

"Goblins are an extremely selfish race. They admire our civilization, yearn for our past, learn our knowledge, and take over our weapons, yet they fear our potential!"

"They've taken control of us!"

A mocking smile appeared on the human girl's face.

"Hundreds of our people have awakened in our shelter, and many have given birth to children over the years."

"The goblins learn our knowledge, but they won't allow us to educate our own children."

"King Amigol the Goblin presents us with a choice: to become an ordinary race on the continent of Feland and live and multiply, or to be forever bound to the goblin race!"

"To be bound together is to be enslaved for generations, how could we possibly agree to that!"

"So I chose the former!"

Jiang You nodded understandingly and sighed.

"It's conceivable that if things continue like this, many years from now, humanity will become just another weak and ordinary race on the continent of Feland, constantly in danger of extinction!"

"That's true, but we humans would rather start over than be slaves!"

The girl smiled firmly.

Then, she looked at Jiang You and solemnly entrusted him with the task.

"If humanity is ever in trouble in the future, please lend a helping hand. I beg you!"

"I will!"

Jiang You nodded.

"Then, could you tell me your human name?"

"Jiang You!"

Upon hearing those two words, a relieved smile finally appeared on the human girl's face.

"So you're from the Eastern race! My name is Christina!"

The next morning.

The goblin delegation bid farewell to Jiang You and the others and returned to the goblin royal court.

Jiang You stood on the mountaintop, watching them depart into the distance.

He watched the human girl's retreating figure, shook his head, and sighed.

"In my past life, when I played games, I often heard about prehistoric ruins. Historians of the various races of Ferrand speculated that the previous era of Ferrand was the steampunk era."

"However, they did not know that at that time, the human race was the master of the continent!"

"Speaking of which, if the system hadn't been inaccessible, wouldn't I have already triggered a legendary quest by now?"
