616 Goodnight, Eva

Hao Ren was completely immersed in the spiritual world. His consciousness continued to sink into the chaotic power. The siren's most ancient historical memory emerged from the chaos, and it became clearer as well as more personal.

He saw that the intelligent creatures living in the deep sea had opened their minds. They were surprised and awed as they studied the ferrous meteorite, which occasionally fell from the dark, learning how the solid stones formed. They excavated silt and weaved seagrass; they built their homes in the dark water world where algae shimmered, and they were fully curious about everything. In the 5,000th year of the Meteoric Iron Age, they finally learned how to separate metals from the deep-sea rocks that they had dug out. In a place where fire did not exist, they used the power of water and chemistry.
