A peaceful life was not always the same.
Although many creatures yearned for it, there were also many creatures who enjoyed it.
There was no conflict, no fear, no anger, and they enjoyed a leisurely life all day long. On a circular platform around the mirror world, the creatures there had been living such a life.
However, they would occasionally have some thoughts outside of their peaceful life, such as … 'doubts'.
Where did the food they ate come from? Where were the daily utensils they used made? Who built their town? What was it like outside the town? Why was the sky always the same color?
The creatures who felt doubtful would leave their peaceful and peaceful town and go outside to investigate.
Those who went to investigate quickly found many other towns, and those towns had the same nature as the town they lived in. Although the sky and environment there might be different, the creatures there also lived in peace.
Therefore, there was only one place that was different from the rest that attracted the creatures who investigated everywhere, and that was … ruins.
There were only ruins in this place, and it looked like it was originally a small town, so it was particularly special. Those creatures with doubts would eventually find this place and be attracted by it to investigate, and then they would find the big hole that led to the depths of the ground.
They would step into the hole and try to find something in the hole, but the mysterious power in the hole made them give up on their investigation and fall asleep.
For many creatures, this sleep was eternal sleep. Their bodies would die of hunger and thirst during the sleep, and then they would be decomposed by a large number of fungi. This place would become a place full of corpses, which were piled up by the bodies of countless doubters who came to investigate.
But for some creatures, this sleep was not eternal because although it was difficult to wake up from this sleep, they could be woken up by some creatures passing by.
There was an emerald dragon that thought that it was carrying a mission, so after it was woken up, it ignored its hunger and continued to go deeper into the ground.
In the end … they came to this place.
A low buzzing sound echoed in the entire space. The crystal cave had a diameter of more than a hundred meters, and in the center of this huge underground cave, there was a transparent sphere floating.
It looked like glass, but it also seemed to be made of very thin crystals. It was about ten meters in diameter and was constantly rotating.
"Is this the secret … the secret that has allowed us to enjoy a peaceful life like a fool?"
The Scholar, the Scorpion, and the skinny Emerald Dragon stood next to the orb. The Emerald Dragon stared at the orb angrily. It looked as if it was about to pounce on the orb.
"What the hell is this thing …" The Scholar stared at the ball. She could see that the transparent shell was wrapped in a layer of black. It was hard to tell what the black was, but it looked like black … light. If she kept staring at it, she would feel like she was being sucked in.
"I want to … destroy it! Gaaaaaaah! " The Emerald Dragon suddenly roared and rushed forward. Its weak body seemed to explode with all its strength at this moment. It leaped and slammed into the ball, then …
Crack! The Scholar and the Scorpion watched as its entire body was torn apart, turning into a bright red substance that sprinkled all over the ground.
"It was … torn apart?"
The Scholar looked at the ground that was still stained red. It could not find a piece of debris larger than a centimeter. The Emerald Dragon had become like this in an instant.
This meant that … this orb could not be approached casually.
"That's it, that's it," the Scorpion said. Scorpion said, "Somewhere in the 'Abandoned World', there must be something similar to this! Those mirrors use them to release a strange power to affect all the creatures in the area!
But it doesn't seem to be releasing its power now … "
From the Emerald Dragon's words, the orb's power was intermittent and not always maintained. That was why the Emerald Dragon could get so close to it.
Perhaps the residents outside were also constantly affected intermittently. Over a long period of time, they became more and more peaceful. Because the power was not always maintained, there were some residents who came to explore this place with doubts.
However, most of the people who came to explore fell asleep on the way. Those who were lucky enough to come to this place probably ended up like the Emerald Dragon.
"That's right …" the Scorpion said to the Scholar. "So we have to deal with it now! Quickly, send out all the information about this place! Tell them everything! "
"Can't you send it out?" The Scholar sent out a message to unseal the orb. However, the Scholar believed that it might not have been affected further earlier because the orb's eruption had ended. So it should be fine to unseal it now.
"I've already sent it out!" the Scorpion said. "It's safer for you to send it out too. Have you sent it out?"
"I've already sent it out … but I don't know who can receive it. And the Primordial Realm might know …" the Scholar said. "Speaking of which, there are no Primordial Realm troops here …"
"Don't worry so much. As long as you receive it, you'll be prepared!" The Scorpion said. "It's your turn now. Come, use your greatest power and destroy it!"
"Destroy it?" the Scholar said. "You don't have to …"
"There definitely aren't many of them. They're definitely very difficult to make!" The Scorpion cried. "Destroying one means one less. I don't have any weapons, so you have to accept this glorious and great mission! You have to completely shatter it so that the mirrors have one less weapon against the swarm! Go! "
"…" the Scholar thought for a moment. Although it was a little against the idea, the Scorpion's words did make sense. As a result, it said, "Then you should hide. This thing might explode or something. I'm not afraid of death now because this isn't my body, but you …"
"… Hmm?" The Scholar turned around and found that the Scorpion had already run to the entrance of the cave. Then it shouted, "I'll call you when I'm done hiding. Get ready!"
"…" the Scholar turned back. It raised a hand and aimed at the spinning orb.
After waiting for a while, it received a message from the Scorpion. It said that it had run out of the ruins.
"It should be safe from that far away. Then use this … portable 78 bomb and see if it can destroy it."
