This work first shows the common environmental elements of Cthulhu novels. The most important environments are deep space, deep sea, deep mountains, wasteland, dense forest, canyons, caves, ruins, and ancient cities. It is only filled with the exploration environment of Europe in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. In the 20th century and the 21st century, there has been an exploration of extreme environments in some extreme areas. This mixes the elements of science fiction.
The most important thing in these areas is that no one is the unknown. There is no place for science. From this, a strange mixture of magic, fantasy, and fantasy was born. This is a land untouched by science and modern society, full of ancient legends. It has produced infinite charm, bred infinite possibilities, and pinned infinite hopes.
Not only Chinese people admire ancient Europeans, but also ancient times. It is a kind of sustenance for the uncertainty of the future from a pre-modern society to a modern society. From the ever-changing social methods and communication methods, people have found their own mental helplessness and various uncertain ordeals. The lamentation of one's own destiny is a mysterious power that people pin on ancient times to save themselves. This kind of salvation often relies on the punishment of oneself, the punishment of modern society and modern human beings. Hope for a kind of justice, this kind of justice is the so-called old masters in ancient times, they represent an order of a kind of pre-modern society. Can save humanity from the social problems that are going on right now. A force capable of confronting modern society, a force capable of confronting science.
The main workers are often not normal people, they are the kind of people who work in the most extreme and unpopular channels of society on the fringes of society. Combining your own luck can play a prophetic effect.
Well, the Cthulhu of this work originated from the deep sea, which must be derived from a marine legend about the suffering of navigation and the fear of the sea in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. This marine legend must have originated from the rendering and speculation of the ocean by the ancient Europeans and Arabs handed down in the Middle Ages or earlier. A fantasy of the ancient eastern world.
Since ancient times, people who have lived by the sea have been full of uncertainty and unknown about the ocean, resulting in all kinds of legends and fears. This is because they do not have the means of modernity to explore pirates, and the ocean has emerged as a An area full of magic and magic. Modern society uses various technologies, various marine submarines, exploration of chemical physics and other means to remove the mystery of the sea one by one. With the help of increasingly developed technology, human beings have reached almost all the corners of the ocean. The mystery of the ocean is fading, you find that the ocean is no longer romantic, and that the ocean has become a kind of area of mere intrapersonal plunder.
People put their strength in putting a kind of expectation in the deeper ocean, in the unknown sea, which is a reflection on modernity and a resistance to science and technology. They hope that nature can counteract the exploitation of the ocean by modern society in a more figurative and anthropomorphic way.
The most primitive ocean worship in ancient times is the worship of marine phenomena and marine life, the god of the sea Poseidon, the hydra in the sea, the palace in the sea, and the dragon god fish. Filled with the cult of marine life and the power of the sea, this cult has been passed down in the blood of human beings and has been passed down culturally.
From the body of Cthulhu, we can see the legends of the peoples in various regions of the world about the ocean.
There is a Chinese legend of the South China Sea mermaid, which is called the merman, but many mermaids hatched from a huge fish, and hermaphrodites were parasitic on the sunken ship.
Seeing ancient sailing, European sailing, fear of giant crawling octopuses in exotic sea conditions, they often drag shipwrecks into the abyss as the incarnation of sea monsters.
Legend has it that with the progress of science, the exploration of the increasingly clear ocean laws in modern society gradually faded, and people's spirits also produced a kind of illusoryness. They have already produced a passive resistance to science fiction, and they began to superstitious ancient legend. This is not only the degradation of human scientific quality, but also a degradation of the spirit of exploration.
