Upon seeing the reaction of the Seven Great Thrones, the Little Mage couldn't help but curiously inquire in his heart.
Facing the inquiry, the Guiding Water Ball's eyelids half-closed:
[It can be confird that the Lord of Welfare felt similarly back then; this feeling can be understood as a disruption of worldview.]
"So what exactly is being disrupted?"
[Fear you won't understand, let tell you a story as an example.]
[There's a place, on the cliffs by the sea, where an ancient lighthouse stands. For a hundred years, it always lights up at sunset and extinguishes at sunrise.]
A sea bird discovered this pattern.
It observed daily, noticing that on rainy days, sunny days, stormy days, the lighthouse's illumination and extinguishing were always on ti.
After three hundred days of recording, the sea bird proudly announced to its tribe that it had grasped the truth of the light: the lighthouse always extinguishes at sunrise!
This sea bird taught its discovery to its tribesn.
A year later, the sea bird's tribe learned to utilize the lighthouse.
Whenever the lighthouse lit up, they collectively took flight, using the lighthouse's light to locate the nightti fish schools on the sea surface.
They returned to their nests when the lighthouse extinguished to avoid dayti predators.
They regarded this discovery as the "Lighthouse Law."
From then on, the sea bird tribe learned to master predicting the ti the lighthouse would light up and extinguish.
Five years later, the sea bird established the Lighthouse Order.
A law was legislated to prohibit fishing when the lighthouse was extinguished, considering it a violation of the natural law with inevitable consequences.
The sea bird that first discovered the pattern was revered as the "Father of Light."
anwhile, there were clansn who defied the law's timing and ventured out, indeed suffering attacks from predators, which made the sea bird tribe further believe in the lighthouse law.
In the fifteenth year, the sea birds had already changed a generation, but the new generation still adhered to the lighthouse law the elders left behind, acting according to the lighthouse law.
Relying on the lighthouse law, the tribe beca increasingly prosperous.
In the winter of the 20th year, due to maintenance issues, the lighthouse did not light up for several subsequent days.
The entire sea bird tribe stubbornly waited for the arrival of the light law unwilling to venture out and violate the law, and eventually froze to death.
Returning to the original topic, the creatures of the Small World seem more advanced than sea birds.
But on the scale of the Monster World, they can also be classified as sea birds, their cognition very limited.
Even though many pieces of knowledge have been proven, when viewed from a more macro perspective, one is surprised to find that the laws they believe in are just temporary rules in the eyes of higher-level life forms.
Or even settings that can be freely modified.
The Seven Kings of the Spirit Breath Clan are like sea birds; they have a set of inherent understanding of the world's structure and believe it to be the truth.
This truth has been verified countless tis over long ages.
But in reality, it is just mistaking the apparent laws for the ultimate truth.
Now, upon encountering the Monster World, what they revered as truth has been shattered.
Just like the constants you thought were just adjustable paraters in the eyes of higher dinsions.
Specifically, their proud "Elental Analysis Technology," in this world, can only recognize the most superficial 0.001% of the energy, leaving the remaining 99.999% marked as "unknown," and these unknown marks continue to grow with ongoing decomposition.
It's like ants trying to understand the internet, they find every unknown is nested with more unknowns.
And this is only in the Colorful Mist Coast Region, not including the domain spaces brought by various forces descending.
Preliminary investigation reveals the world structure laws considered ironclad by the Spirit Breath Clan's Seven Great Thrones have been broken, cognition disrupted.
Including their tools for asuring the Monster World, using children's toy rulers trying to asure the size of the Earth, ending up with only unknowns.
It can be understood as: the frog in the well jumps out and discovers that the world is not just the narrow perception they had, the outside world is unimaginably large.]
Upon hearing the Guiding Water Ball's narrative, the Little Mage nodded in revelation.
Turning his head to look, the expressions of the Seven Great Thrones were terrified.
Especially the Shadow King, whose eyes were bulging like two copper bells ready to pop out of their sockets, filled with extre terror, as if witnessing the world's most terrifying thing.
The lips continued to tremble uncontrollably, unable to utter a single sound, as though an invisible giant hand was choking his throat tightly.
The other thrones exhibited similar performances.
The Little Mage briefly pondered, then quietly rose, switching to performance mode.
As one of the Eight Kings, he must show the sa reaction, otherwise, it would seem too unusual.
"Hiss~ Such terrifying horror."
