"Did you all co from this place?"
Swimming out from the golden shell in Leon’s hand, the rmaid statue, which had shrunk to the size of a fist, curiously gazed at the distant sea eye before returning to perch on the edge of the shell. There, it swung its tiny tail while shaking its head at Leon’s slightly anxious expression, saying:
"No need to watch it again. Recently, only the four of you have passed through this sea eye. There are no such directors of crabs or bugs as you ntioned."
Not the crab director and bug director, but the Cancer director and Scorpio director... fine, call them whatever you like...
Instinctively correcting himself, Leon, who had "invited" the rmaid statue from the ruins to near the sea eye, unwillingly asked again:
"Are you sure your perception isn’t mistaken? Could there be so special circumstances? Like, were they frozen and fell without directly contacting this world, or used so anomaly to hide their aura so you couldn’t detect them?"
"Hey! Aren’t you underestimating a little?"
Carefully avoiding the miniature trident embedded in its chest, the petite rmaid statue crossed its tiny white arms in front of its chest, lifted its thumb-sized head, and looked at Leon with dissatisfaction:
"Although I lost in the contest for the source, I was once a great entity that controlled the source of an entire material world. By your standards, my peak Contamination Value was probably over eighty-five points.
The Four Pillar Gods, who made you humans flee in panic, likely had a Contamination Value of less than eighty points. If I were still alive, even if they dared to cause trouble in my world, they wouldn’t be enough for to handle with one hand!"
After boasting proudly about its past power, the rmaid statue, with a tiny "toothpick" stuck in its chest, tilted its head with a slightly unpleasant expression, huffed:
"Even if I’m just a leftover remnant, it’s not sothing ordinary pillar gods can compare to... Though my power might be slightly weakened, in this world that once belonged to , I’m nearly omniscient and omnipotent!
Your bureau’s two directors, at most, are on the sa level as a seventy-point ordinary pillar god. Even factoring in so Star Palace Secret Technique, they’re barely weak pillar gods. How could they possibly hide from my eyes?"
Alright then...
Seeing the rmaid statue’s confident deanor, Leon had no choice but to believe him, then furrowed his brows and asked:
"If they didn’t co here, where could they have gone? Do you know their destination?"
"This..."
Upon hearing Leon’s question, the nine-centiter-tall rmaid statue’s nine-ter-high presence slightly faltered, glancing around uncertainly, said:
"I was indeed strong in the past, but I’m dead now. You can’t expect too much from soone who’s dead... right?"
"..."
"Of course, I’m not completely without a clue."
Seeing the two parts disdain and disappointnt in Leon’s glance, the rmaid statue, whose pride was slightly undercut, quickly added:
"If you’re certain they fell into the sea eye and weren’t misled by so illusion, then I think it’s not them who are lost, but you guys."
"Us?"
"Yes, I think it was you who ’entered’ the wrong sea eye."
With bright eyes, observing the nearly stagnant sea eye from afar, the rmaid statue confidently said:
"Based on what you said, the reason your world is freezing should be because there’s a problem with the sea eye. It’s not connected to the Cold Spring Realm but to my Netherworld. And after my Netherworld’s source was taken, the rules of the entire world started to constantly dissipate."
"Rules dissipation?"
"That’s when various inherent ’properties’ begin to lose consistency, even completely disappearing."
At this point, the rmaid statue’s expression beca slightly somber, then it slightly pressed its lips, saying:
"To give an example... In your world, water evaporates when hot and freezes when cold. Fish can swim in it without suffocating, and it can grow crops when applied to seeds. These are unchanging properties and rules that work in most material worlds.
However, in my Netherworld, after losing the source as a foundation, all the water has completely lost the ability to freeze. Even if the surrounding temperature drops to the point of cracking steel, all the water in the Netherworld would remain liquid.
As for other traits that allow marine life to breathe and plants to grow, although they haven’t disappeared yet, they are also experiencing varying degrees of loss and chaos. In the future, they may completely disappear like the ’freezing’ property over ti... but it doesn’t really matter anymore either."
Sitting on the edge of the golden shell, glancing around the eerily silent world, the rmaid statue said sowhat desolately:
"Before the properties of the seawater disappear to the point where plants can’t grow, my clansn have already mostly starved to death."
Starved to death?
Leon, hearing this, was slightly startled, then carefully steadied the golden shell in his hand, asking sowhat puzzledly:
"Wasn’t this world instantly destroyed after the source was taken?"
