It feels very good when wearing this vest. But once it is stripped down, it will be embarrassing.

But at the moment, Kai doesn't care about that much.

You must first protect Ancient One and let him complete his spells.

The Lion King is on the ginseng!

The golden armor is particularly gorgeous. The helmet is in the shape of a lion's head, but it is different from modern aesthetics. This lion is more simple and not so realistic, but looks domineering and majestic. At the same time, it is a standard Chinese skirt armor on the lower body, a floating crown above the helmet, and behind the Lion King is a pair of light feather wings, which are particularly dazzling.

This painting has to be cool and cool, and cool, the only thing that makes Kai a little unhappy is that it is too shining... Can you understand? These ancient gods all like gold glittering colors. They want to paint everything they see in front of them into gold and shine!

This is the traditional color of the Egyptian gods. They like gold... In fact, there is no god who doesn't like gold. This is the case with the Egyptian gods, the Olympus gods, the same as Asgard, the same as those original gods, and even the later artificial religions.

For example, Christianity and Buddhism all like gold, especially Buddhism. The thing they like to do the most is to cast a golden body!

Among all the metals on the earth, gold is undoubtedly the most popular among humans. In fact, humans have long loved gold. Judging from the current archaeological data, all ancient civilizations known on the earth regard gold as a precious thing. Why do all ancient civilizations recognize gold at the same time? There are two main reasons. One is that gold has unique chemical and physical properties, and the other reason is that humans can find very little gold on the earth. The chemical properties of gold are very stable. In the natural environment on the earth, gold almost always exists in an elemental state.

This allows any ancient civilization to obtain gold directly in nature. Because gold has extremely strong corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance, people will soon notice that this metal is worthy of possession because it will not rust, deteriorate, and will not be eaten by insects. From the perspective of physical properties, gold will present a very beautiful and easily recognizable golden color in its natural state. People can easily associate the metallic luster of gold with the sun. Based on the worship of the sun, ancient civilizations on the earth usually regard gold as a sacred thing, so as to consciously collect and store it.

On the other hand, gold has relatively soft texture, excellent ductility and forging. In addition, the melting point of gold is relatively low (about 1064.43℃). Even ancient civilizations can melt it. When it is melted, the chemical properties of gold are still very stable. When it cools down and solidifies, it is still shining gold.

These characteristics allow ancient civilizations to process gold in various ways and widely use it for sacrifices, decorations, and money. On this basis, with the scarcity of gold, it is natural that "all ancient civilizations recognize gold in unison". Compared with the huge earth, human ability is actually very limited. Even modern humans can only mine some relatively concentrated gold on the surface of the earth. So, from a general perspective, how much gold is there on the earth? In fact, this can be estimated. According to the mainstream view of the scientific community, the solar system is formed in the gravitational collapse of a primitive nebula. In this process, the sun first forms at the center of the nebula, and the residual matter of this nebula forms various celestial bodies in the solar system, including the earth. In other words, the gold on the earth actually comes from this primitive nebula.

If we want to trace the source, there are two sources of these gold. One is the supernova explosion that occurs after the "nuclear fuel" of large-mass stars are exhausted, and the other is the collision of neutron stars. Compared with the earth, the mass of the celestial bodies that can produce gold is very huge, so that every supernova explosion or neutron star collision will produce gold with much larger mass than the earth. They will be thrown into the vast universe and spread continuously with the passage of time. Some of them enter the primitive nebula that forms the solar system. At the same time when the earth was formed, a large number of small celestial bodies were formed in the solar system, and a large part of them are still "wandering around" in the solar system. When the earth revolves around the sun, some small celestial bodies "the same age" as the earth is captured by the earth from time to time. The remains of their fallen to the surface of the earth are called meteorites.

Theoretically, the gold content of these meteorites should be consistent with the original Earth. After all, they all form in the same nebula, so we only need to collect a large number of samples of this meteorite and measure them to infer the gold content of the original Earth. In fact, scientists did do this too. Through the analysis of a large number of samples, the scientists gave the result that the gold content of the original Earth is about 0.32 parts per million. It is known that the mass of the earth is about 60 trillion tons. A simple calculation shows that there are about 1920 trillion tons of gold on the earth.

I have to say that this is a surprising number, but the problem is that we have not found so much gold on the earth at all. Why is this? The reason is that most of these golds are in the core of the earth. If we constantly hit a nail with a hammer, it will take no longer to take long to keep the temperature of the nail rising significantly. From a physics point of view, this is actually a process of converting kinetic energy into heat energy. By the same token, the formation of the earth is a process of collision and accretion of a large amount of matter. In this process, a large amount of kinetic energy will be converted into heat energy, which will cause the original earth to rise sharply. When the temperature reaches a certain level, the entire original earth will be in a high-temperature melting state.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! In this case, the matter that constitutes the original earth will have a phenomenon called "gravity difference", which is specifically manifested as heavier matter will "sink", while lighter matter will "float". It is obvious that gold of course belongs to "heavier matter", so a large amount of gold "sink" to the core of the earth. According to scientists' estimates, there is very little gold in the earth's crust, accounting for about 0.0044% of the earth's gold reserves. There is not much gold in the mantle, accounting for only about 0.185% of the earth's gold reserves, and the rest of the gold is all in the core of the earth. It is worth mentioning that there is still a certain amount in the earth's ocean.

The measurement data shows that each cubic kilometer of seawater contains 10 to 30 grams of gold, but this can be said to be very small compared to the earth's huge gold reserves. Although there is so much gold on the earth, most of these golds are either hidden deep in the earth or too scattered, so humans can actually obtain very little gold. This is the case with the ancient civilization on the earth, and modern humans are not much better. Statistics show that before the 19th century, humans mined at most 10,000 tons of gold, and by the end of 2021, humans have mined only more than 200,000 tons of gold. It can be foreseen that gold will still be widely recognized by humans for a long time in the future.

Gold, this metal, has always played an important role in human history. Whether it is ancient emperors, generals, or modern merchants and wealthy people, they all have irresistible temptations for gold. Gold is not only a currency, but also a symbol, representing wealth, power, beauty and sacred. First of all, what we want to talk about is the color of gold. The color of gold is golden, and this color is not common in nature, giving people a sense of rare and preciousness. However, this color has another meaning, that is, the color of food. In agricultural civilization, food is the basis of human survival and the driving force for social development. A bumper harvest of food means living and working in peace, and the lack of food means famine and turmoil. Therefore, humans have a lot to do with food.

Deep emotions and awe. There is a saying that the fundamental reason why humans like gold is because it has the same color as food. This saying believes that before the Age of Discovery, not all humans like gold. Only those areas where wheat, rice, corn, etc. are staple food (Europe/Western Asia/North Africa/Asia/Central and South America) like gold, while those areas where collection or hunting are the main lifestyle (South Africa/Oceania/North America) do not like gold. This saying believes that before the colonists arrived in these areas, there was no record of their looting or trading gold by local indigenous people, but that local indigenous people were not interested in gold and even regarded it as a useless thing.

This statement further speculates that humans may have learned smelting and smelting techniques in the process of collecting gold, and discovered bronze, a harder and shiny metal. Humans may have made agricultural tools with bronze and hoped to use it to increase the fertility of the land and the yield of grain (bronze ware will turn green after being used for a period of time, and may be mistaken for injecting gold into the land). As a result, humans entered the Bronze Age and started the process of civilization.

Of course, this statement has not been widely recognized and proven, and is just an interesting and imaginative assumption. But it at least illustrates the fact that there is some connection between gold and food, which is crucial to humans.

The gods don’t know what’s going on, they are even more fascinated by gold than humans.

It is a disaster for the worlds ruled by the Pantheon. Don’t think that the universe is big and gold is endless. In fact, gold is also a rare matter in the universe!

It is no exaggeration to say that the gold bracelet under your grandma is actually older than the Earth and the Sun: when these gold atoms were born in the universe, even a stone on the earth had not yet been formed. Therefore, to unravel the precious reasons for gold, we must start with the element production line of the universe. Because this assembly line sets the highest level of entry threshold for gold. As an elemental nuclear fusion factory, stars forge different elements through layered fusion reactions. Common ordinary elements (such as carbon, oxygen, and iron) are inside the stars.

It can be made. But when the production line runs to the iron element, it will get stuck: because continuing to make heavier elements requires energy rather than releasing energy. The birth of gold (including 79 protons) requires breaking through this physical barrier, which leads to only two cosmic events that can initiate the production of gold elements: one is a supernova explosion: this is a violent explosion event that only occurs when a massive star dies. When a star bursts in a supernova, it will release the sum of the energy of the sun's lifetime in a thousandth of a second.

The other is the collision of neutron stars: the collision of ultra-high-density stars that are dozens of times heavier than the sun in two cities can create an environment that is 1 billion times hotter than the core of the sun. In this rare cosmic extreme event, ordinary atomic nuclei will be repeatedly impacted by neutron torrents, absorbing neutrons quickly like snowballs, and eventually forming heavy elements such as gold. This process, called "fast neutron capture", lasts less than 1 second, but is the only way to make precious metals in the universe. In this process, gold is born with many restrictions. For example, making 1 gram of yellow

Gold needs to crush 10^23 tons of stellar matter to the power of 10^23, which is equivalent to the mass of the entire solar system. There are few production opportunities. The Milky Way only has an effective gold-producing neutron star collision in an average of 100,000 years. Then there is huge transportation loss. 99% of the gold ejected by the supernova explosion is lost in space, and only a trace amount can reach new planets. For example, the earth. Now you understand that gold is not rare on Earth, but in the entire universe. From the moment of forging when a star dies, to surviving through interstellar space, to breaking through the deep blockade of the earth, gold is used

The cosmic production process completed in 13.8 billion years is the ultimate endorsement of its value.

In short, the gods beat their bones and marrow to get gold. Moreover, gold is not very useful to them. They cannot be eaten or converted into energy. They don’t even have industry and have no place to spend this gold. Their function is just for good looks, but they just like it!

I like it as fascinated, their Pantheon headquarters is full of golden shining!

As the Lion King appeared in his state, Scar King turned his attention immediately, and he couldn't be too cool. More importantly, Kai's body is a pure god creation, and it is a special attack on Geer! The level of hatred is extremely good!

Not surprisingly, Scar King began to attack Kai.

Kai also took the initiative and directly drew out the Twilight Great Sword.

It’s Surtel’s great sword. This thing has no other abilities, it’s infinitely sharp!

Even the space can be cut open!

In Asgard, Surtel snatched his eternal fire, but Kai snatched the Twilight Great Sword from it.

Surtel will never be able to be complete in his life!
