At this mont, the [Administrator Permissions] were released.
The seawater of the "Endless Ocean" began to surge back here with a trendous roar.
Seeing the island that had disappeared by half, along with the city ruins of the "Primordial Civilization" on it, everyone finally started to recover from the terrifying power of the nuclear explosion.
Olivia, having returned to human form, landed beside Aiven, her small mouth agape:
"A being who is among the top in the [Demigods], vanished into ashes just like that? Even the incarnation of a True God might not have such destructive power, right?"
"To decisively conclude a battle among gods, we’re still a bit short. The delivery thod of [Mushroom Bomb] is not yet resolved, a fully-prepared demigod wouldn’t find it too hard to avoid.
But this ti’s target was conveniently a deranged giant, making it that easy."
Fierce wind roared, making their clothes flutter.
The hydrogen bomb Aiven handcrafted, replacing the "atomic bomb" intended as the trigger with Divine Power and authority, was completely clean and pollution-free, with no radioactive residue, extrely eco-friendly.
Since there is no worry about endless residual poison and being penalized by World Consciousness Father.
Naturally, one could throw them as they please. It might be restricted in solo combat, but it’s perfect for precision demolition.
"Yafum is really stingy, fought for so long and besides [Divinity], there wasn’t even a single hair left."
Jelos, shading his eyes without finding anything, muttered disappointedly, "The way the ’Master of the Ice Fla Circle’ dies robs an experienced adventurer of the greatest joy of looting a corpse."
Nearby.
After a whispered discussion between Kongyu and Milan, they carefully explained to everyone from a professional perspective:
"As it appears now, when all the ti lines of a [Demigod] are gathered, their past is already determined, but their future is not!
Or rather, they inherently possess countless futures in this uncertain state.
If it weren’t for us, the outsiders, breaking this state, within a closed system no one could ascertain their fate, and it wouldn’t be concluded just by observation alone.
However, whether this is truly the case, or just part of it, still requires more evidence to ascertain."
Milan shrugged and added:
"My [Magic-like Technique: Peeping Ti Line] is now completely ineffective on the uncertain status of [Demigods], at the very least, their apparent death is certainly not their end."
Upon hearing this, the mbers of the adventurer team already had a foreboding feeling.
Due to the eerie state of "Behind the Door" matters, aside from the immutable and unreplicable [Divinity], it might really end up terribly unrewarding.
Angie, focusing differently from them, furrowed her elegant brows slightly:
"Shouldn’t we be more concerned about this ’Master of the Ice Fla Circle’ itself?
This situation obviously doesn’t align with our initial expectations.
Their ergence implies even before the arrival of ’Era Catastrophe’, demigods would hide ’Behind the Door’ for various reasons, evading the fate of falling.
Even counting from the Second Era, from Ehecoatl till now, over two million years have passed.
Even conservatively estimating — one demigod erging in the Material World every 100 years — at least twenty thousand demigods were born in this history.
Excluding those who didn’t enter ’Behind the Door’, or fell midway in the Material World or other worlds, considering a quarter of the total, there might be nearly 5,000 demigods in ’Behind the Door’ world!
It’s far more dangerous than we imagined."
"Hiss—!"
Initially, they speculated based on the number of demigods in the late current Era, estimating up to a hundred or eighty could hide "Behind the Door" at a Era’s end, with a total number of just a few hundred.
After reasonable deduction, the reality is evidently far surpassing this, making everyone’s hearts jolt, instinctively moving closer to Aiven’s side.
This action unexpectedly highlighted the "King of Sea Monsters" Kraken, who was staring straight at the distant piece of the "new map".
Aiven curiously asked:
"Mr. Kraken, did you discover sothing?"
Seen on the face of this Ancient Land Turtle whose lifespan outstripped the others combined, was shock, hesitance, and uncertainty, pointing to the vast land appearing at the edge of vision:
"Your Majesty, I... am not quite certain, but we should better go take a look, it’s very important to ."
"No problem, since we don’t have any other clear targets anyway."
Though the danger of further exploration might be sowhat beyond expectations.
But their main goal this trip is to uncover the secrets behind the Door, at least to witness the true form of the [Möbius Ring] as they did with exploring the [Civilization Relic: Catrio’s Wheel] previously.
Let’s see if this truly is the lifeline for saving all life on this planet, and indeed, the lifeline for most of them!
After all.
Even Angie and Anita, who currently possess both Divinity and Divine Position, dare not guarantee that they can definitely beco Demigods and hide here in the future.
The group packed up and set off again.
Of course, before leaving this island, they did not forget to erect a stone monunt to harvest another wave of World’s Favor.
Undoubtedly, they are the first wave of mortals from the Age of Navigation to arrive Behind the Door, and are pioneers among great navigators and adventurers.
However, although this wave of World’s Favor is quite substantial.
For Aiven now, it no longer has an imdiate effect, but for the team mbers, it is undoubtedly a great supplent.
Especially for Jelos, Milan, and Kongyu, these three Upper-Rank Wizards at least no longer need to worry about the resources for advancing to Crowned Wizards.
Swish...
The Sea Soul activated the Legendary Battleship Skill: Underwater Stealth, diving underwater like a giant fish.
Because at this ti, realizing the danger, they were increasingly cautious in their advance, fearing to unceremoniously collide with a wandering Demigod.
anwhile, as they distanced themselves from the island, it gradually vanished behind them, as if it had never appeared.
Evidently, neither the Demigods here nor the scenery would beco permanently solidified just because of one observation. Instead, once the observers leave, everything reverts to its original "uncertain" state.
Perhaps if they turned back, they might see the island perfectly intact again, but no one was so idle.
At this mont, the Golden Compass in Aiven’s hand was still effective, albeit roughly pointing to the interior of the Endless Ocean, which did not conflict with the land that the King of Sea Monsters was very concerned about.
Toot——!
Hehe, haha...
While traveling underwater along this already observed area hundreds of kiloters long, they unexpectedly once again witnessed other Demigods, or similarly strange entities of the sa level.
Red figures as tall as mountains walking in groups across the sea surface;
A gigantic black shadow in the clouds that was indistinguishable as a snake or dragon, with its terrifying scales and claws looming in and out;
A large mass of spheres flickering with rainbow light, diving into the sea with a piercing alarm sound, only to shoot skyward once more...
What they saw was just the tip of the iceberg of the mythical world.
The various sea monsters that roared dominantly in the Storm Belt were rely at the bottom of the biological spectrum here.
Almost without exception.
These "great beings," whose status beca determined after being observed, seed to have turned into mindlessly raging, and even completely out-of-control monsters.
Even with the explanations from Milan and Kongyu, it likely indicates that although these beings have infinite future possibilities, the likelihood of negative outcos far exceeds the positive.
Nonetheless, the group couldn’t help but feel a sense of foreboding towards the so-called Möbius Ring.
This state, akin to a prisoner where one’s future is not dictated by oneself, is it truly what they desire?
Silence reigned in the ship’s cabin.
...
Covering a re few hundred kiloters took them only half a day.
As they gradually approached the land, the expression on the Ancient Land Turtle Kraken, the King of Sea Monsters, began to turn more and more excited, seemingly sensing a familiar aura.
Aiven and Olivia exchanged a glance, having realized sothing.
When they, who were not even Upper-Rank Wizards at the ti, struck a deal with this King of Sea Monsters, they already knew.
In the inherited mory of Kraken, the last Ancient Land Turtle in the world, the earliest habitat of the land turtle tribe was in this boundless ocean.
Though he had never been here since hatching from an egg,
He had always yearned for the idealized Endless Ocean Phorcys. Eager to see if his tribe still lived here, or if he truly was the last surviving descendant of the Ancient Land Turtles.
In Kraken’s inherited mory, at least, the Endless Ocean is a place where ancient land turtles capable of birthing islands could roam freely.
He even gave up competing for the Black Sea Divinity, because even in seeking divinity, it must be an expanse like Phorcys to succeed.
And seeing Kraken’s expression, the land before them is likely the creation of an ancient land turtle, or perhaps... is the very body of one!
