Chapter 1657: Disaster for All Living Beings

Blaze took a deep breath and understood a lot of problems.

The answer to why the floating island ore can float in the sea of ​​clouds has appeared, because this appeared before the world was born, and it can even be said to be the first natural law.

The sweet sea water and the salt sea water merge with each other, and the crystals of the sweet sea water can naturally float in the sea of ​​clouds formed by the salt sea water.

The answer to where the extremely ingenious cloud ecosystem that can float in the sea of ​​clouds came from is now clear. It was born from the fusion of salty sea water and sweet sea water.

Under normal circumstances, he would have thought the answer was ingenious and would have been eager to share it with strangers, but now these answers were useless.

“So you don’t know what to do when the saltwater invades, right?”

In response to Blaze's answer, Ishtar responded with silence, but a worse answer than silence was an apology.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what to do, at least I don't know how to mend the sky."

Blaze closed his eyes, adjusted his emotions, opened his eyes, and shrugged helplessly.

"Actually, I don't hold out much hope. If you old guys leave any problems behind, they must be beyond your capabilities, or at least beyond your ability to think."

"Then this matter can only be solved by us young people on the new era stage."

"Besides, I came here just to get the seeds of life in the first place. If you feel guilty, just give me a few hundred or a few thousand more. That way, I will have exceeded my mission."

"That's the derivative of my power as the goddess of life. Do you think it's melon seeds?" Although Ishtar was complaining, the trees of life around her began to shake, and dozens of fruits from the trees of life fell down.

"How should I put it... Please work hard to find a solution. I will do my best to cooperate with you wherever you need me. I also enjoyed the meticulous offerings of humans in the past, but the problem of the old era of the salt water Tiamat has now erupted."

"Don't let the disasters of our barbaric age destroy the new era you are opening."

"That will become an ugly scar on my body that will never go away."

"Don't worry." Blaze picked up the fruits of the Tree of Life one by one, packed them up in a piece of cloth, and threw them hard on his back.

He gave Ishtar and Ereshkigal a thumbs-up.

"Then let me see the backbone of you old guys... I call you old guys, and you are not angry at all?"

“Because of this fact, I am already so old that I can’t even count on my ten fingers. It’s meaningless.” Ereshkigal waved her hand nonchalantly.

"Even though I'm an old guy, I'm still beautiful!" Ishtar raised her chin proudly, not narcissistically. In a sense, this was true.

"Then I'll leave first."

Blaze rode on the chicken's back and headed non-stop to the Sea of ​​Golden Apple Trees. As expected, the Hundred-Eyed Argus was ready.

He sat like a giant next to the apple-shaped landmark, with his hands outstretched, waiting for them to land, and in his palms there was a small package.

"It seems that you care about me very much." Blaze got off the chicken's back and opened the package in the hand of Hundred-Eyed Argus.

Inside were gleaming silver apples, and some brass-colored apples.

"The copper apple?"

"Yes, it is the product of the silver apple's lower quality, but it is still a very powerful life treasure. Let's use it as much as we can."

"Well, thanks." Blaze didn't hesitate and immediately packed the package, so he now had two packages on his back.

"By the way, can you see what's happening outside the world behind the gap in the sky?" Hundred-Eyed Argus shook his head.

"My eyes can only see everything in this world. There is something beyond heaven and earth, outside the world. I, a life born in heaven and earth, cannot peek into it."

"Really?" Blaze had some thoughts in his mind, but was quickly interrupted by the Hundred-Eyed Argus who slowly stood up.

The giant Argus made a loud noise when he stood up, and the whole sea of ​​golden apple trees could see it.

"what happened?"

"I'm planning on heading to [U-22], and your pillars need something to hold them up."

"...You know our plan?" Blaze was not surprised.

In fact, Argus the Hundred-Eyed, as the former guardian god Heimdall, not only has the ability to see anywhere in the world, but also the ability to hear. However, after being degraded to a giant, he can only have one of the two, so his hearing has been greatly reduced.

"Is it okay for you to leave here? The creatures in the sea are still eyeing the golden apple tree."

"Monsters are more sensitive to disasters than humans, and are more afraid of death. Survival is their only goal."

The Hundred-Eyed Argus turned his body so that Blaze could see the ocean. The huge vitality of the Sea of ​​Golden Apple Trees meant that the surrounding waters were always roamed by sea monsters.

It was the same today, but the heads of those sea monsters were not looking at the sea of ​​golden apple trees as usual, but towards the periphery.

Today they are not predators, but guardians.

This is a tacit understanding. If the sea monsters want to invade the Sea of ​​Golden Apple Trees, then the Hundred-Eyed Argus, as the guardian, will never leave. But conversely, if there is no invasion by sea monsters, the Hundred-Eyed Argus will have time to leave and support a greater crisis.

"It seems they also know that the sky is falling."

“The longer you live, the more sensitive you become to death, and the greater the price you are willing to pay to stay alive.”

"It always feels like you're saying something bad about Odin."

"No, it's not bad words, I'm just telling you what I saw."

Blaze felt that Hundred-Eyed Argus was a very good person, just a little bit evil by nature.

Anyway, Odin himself didn't care and was even willing to make fun of it, so Blaze didn't think it was a big deal.

"Then I'll go to the Peace Olive Tree first. How are you going to get to [U-22]?"

Hundred-eyed Argus did not answer, but looked in one direction, and Blaze also looked over there. There was nothing there, just a pitch-black ocean.

The darkness came from a gigantic creature called Ouroboros.

"Rainbow Bridge, it seems that you have a good relationship." Blaze teased. He remembered the Ragnarok mentioned by Odin, in which Ouroboros was one of the protagonists, and Argus the Hundred-Eyed was the guardian of Asgard in the past.

The Destroyer and the Defender now stay in an ocean.

"What's wrong with this? Maybe we are too afraid of destruction itself and forget something more essential, which is acceptance."

Hundred-eyed Argus sighed softly, regretting the past.

"If we become friends with Ouroboros, who cares if Ouroboros destroys us?"
