Me! Cleaner!.

Chapter 1145 Methods to Strengthen the Present World

Unfortunately, although Leon's acting skills were not bad, without the "Master of Performance" badge, he still lacked a bit of finesse and ultimately could not escape the observation of the mermaid beauty.

Seeing his somewhat strange expression and noticing the obviously illogical Root No. 3, the mermaid beauty eliminated all the impossible possibilities and finally succeeded in locking onto the only truth...

Lyon is not a descendant of the Roots, but the second third-generation director to mistakenly enter the Roots!
"asshole!!!"

Upon discovering that she had been kept in the dark all along, the mermaid woman's eyes immediately turned red with anger.

"You knew all along that you weren't a descendant of the Roots? Damn it! You've been hiding this from me all this time?!?"

Ahem... Well... Isn't this just you always thinking I'm one of your "people," and then you're just making things up for me? I've never said I'm a descendant of the original race.

After mentally justifying himself for a moment, Leon coughed and said:

"I do have some doubts, but I'm not entirely sure... What if I really am?"

You're nothing but a fart!
Enraged by Leon's stubborn denial, the mermaid woman felt her head begin to spin.

You bastard! If you were a Root Descendant, would I have been smashed to this state by the Third Root? You damned bastard! Why didn't you say you weren't a Root Descendant earlier! My skull almost cracked!
"As you know, I'm not very reliable as the guide between Root No. 3."

After decisively shifting the blame, Leon blinked and said:
“He made a mistake once before when it was the third generation. He might be wrong again this time… Anyway, he said I must be a descendant of the Root. I don’t know if he’s right or wrong, so I’ll just take his word for it.”

"And you'll just keep it from me for now, right?"

The mermaid beauty said irritably:

"Stop lying! You must have realized long ago that you are not a descendant of the Root, but because you have always distrusted me, you have refused to tell me the truth. You even deliberately did not explain when I misunderstood you, all to trick me into revealing information!"
"You really are... I was even prepared to dedicate myself to the Root, about to die for you and the present world. I went to such lengths, and you, you bastard, still won't tell me the truth!"

"This... isn't necessarily all a bad thing?"

After scratching the back of his head somewhat awkwardly, Leon asked:

"Since the connection between Root #3 and Root #4 hasn't been 'opened' yet, does that mean you don't need to devote yourself to Root #5?"

"If I can't even get in, how can I dedicate myself to the roots?"

The mermaid beauty replied irritably:
"The problem is, if I don't dedicate myself to the Root, the Abyss Realm cannot merge with the present world, and the upper limit between the three Roots cannot be expanded. How do you plan to contend with the first one then?"

"I don't know, but we can give it a try."

After glancing at the various badges gleaming on the panel, Leon spoke earnestly:

“Since you can’t devote yourself to the Root for the time being, we should find other ways to strengthen the Root in the present world as much as possible to resist possible attacks… After all, we can’t just sit here and wait to die; we still have to do something.”

"The question is, what can be done?"

The mermaid beauty sighed, looking somewhat troubled, and said:

“If you don’t ‘devour’ the race you were born from, you can’t refine the essence of the origin, and you can’t combine the origin of the present world to strengthen it. But if you really do that… then you’re not far from losing yourself and becoming another Number 1.”

really……

After nodding slightly, Leon frowned and pondered for a moment, then looked up at the mermaid beauty and asked, "Evangeline, besides sacrificing yourself by throwing yourself into the Source, is there any other way for the mortal world to absorb the Abyss Realm?"

Other ways to absorb the Abyss Realm?

The mermaid beauty hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded somewhat uncertainly and said:
"If that's what you mean... there is one way that's not really a solution."

Lyon was overjoyed upon hearing this.

"any solution?"

"Let the Abyss Realm completely replace the Cold Spring Realm and connect it to the Sea Eye in the present world."

The mermaid beauty replied:
"If this were done, the Abyss Realm would become part of the mortal plane cluster, just like the Tide Realm, and might even merge directly with the Tide Realm, completely replacing its original position. This would also greatly strengthen the foundation of the mortal world, however..."

Will the seabed freeze over again?

"Correct."

The mermaid beauty nodded somewhat helplessly and said:

"You've seen the situation in the Abyss Realm. The seawater there has long lost the rules of [condensation] and [heat preservation]. In fact, the entire plane is in an extremely cold climate where it never freezes."

If I were to devote myself to the Root, the Abyss Realm would be absorbed by the mortal world and become a part of it. However, if the Abyss Realm were to replace the Cold Spring Realm, the Abyss Realm would become an existence that exists in parallel with the mortal world.

To maintain this situation, the sea eye cannot be sealed off. The seawater in the Abyss Realm, now devoid of rules, will inevitably flood the mortal world. Given the size of the Abyss Realm, all the oceans will likely be completely frozen, and even more than half of the mortal land will be submerged.

"..."

Freeze all the oceans and then flood half the land... Good heavens, this is beyond a bad idea; it's a case of hurting the enemy a thousand while hurting yourself a billion. It seems there's no need to even consider it. No wonder Evangeline never mentioned this method before.

After shaking his head somewhat helplessly, Leon was about to think of another way when he felt his heart tremble slightly, and a square head suddenly popped out from it.

"If it's just a problem with freezing, then I might have a solution."

"?!!!"

Leon was taken aback when he saw the three-generation old man emerging from his heart.

"Didn't I already break the Serpent King's spell? Why are you still here?"

I'm just worried she might suddenly change her mind and hurt you, so I'm keeping some of my resolve in reserve for you.
After giving Lyon a look that said, "You don't understand my good intentions," the third-generation Deng chuckled:

"Although I'm not very skilled, I have learned a little bit of the Serpent Cow's Secret Arts, so when you released the secret arts, I left a tiny bit of my will behind, thinking that if you encounter any trouble in the future, it might be able to help you out a little... Hey! Don't pull! Don't pull!"

With a dark expression, Leon grabbed the remaining will of the third-generation elder and pulled him out of his heart. He then carefully examined his body and, as expected, discovered several familiar auras.

Some are life-saving measures that can be triggered automatically, while others are star palace marks that can temporarily activate secret techniques. It seems that almost every board member who was brought into his body during the previous righteous brawl did not come for nothing, and all of them left some "marks" for him.

However, the directors were far more principled than the third-generation elders, leaving behind only imprints without any thought. Only the third-generation elder, while leaving behind a mass of roots for his own use, secretly mixed in a wisp of his will.

Sure... This dog's habit of leaving something behind everywhere, like peeing on telephone poles, is just so "cleaner-like"!
