Gu Qing Shan supported the old lady and walked forward together.
Parallel world corrosion … duty …
The old lady's words made him silently pay attention.
He recalled that the Earth Creator also said something similar to stop the Abyssal monsters from stealing the twin swords Heaven and Earth.
However, what the Earth Creator said was to stop the Abyssal monsters from obtaining the weapons of the Eternal Abyss and prevent people from entering parallel worlds.
— — -the Earth Creator didn't mention the parallel world corrosion.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then decided to ask: "Milady, I have a small question"
"Speak" the old lady replied.
"You said that your duty is to erase the parallel world corrosion, but I've never seen any parallel worlds intersect with our world, could it be that parallel worlds are also a threat?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"It's not a threat" the old lady looked at Gu Qing Shan, then added when his eyebrows loosened: "It's the Apocalypse"
"The … Apocalypse?" Gu Qing Shan was confused.
The other party was the Elemental Fairy Queen, a fairy that existed eternally in Time and Space, so Gu Qing Shan believed that she wouldn't randomly lie about such a thing.
The old lady didn't say anything and simply waved her hand in front of herself.
The void of space scattered.
Everything appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan.
A grand banquet was about to begin, while he and the old lady stood on the grand cathedral's royal viewing platform, watching the crowd below.
The elemental fairies sensed the arrival of their Queen, so they stopped their banquet and bowed to greet the old lady on the platform.
"No need to be so courteous, have fun"
The old lady waved her hand to greet the crowd below and smiled.
Suddenly, a sharp scream resounded:
"That young man, I saw him just now!"
This was the voice of the Water Elemental Fairy from before.
The old lady made a mocking expression and told Gu Qing Shan: "She seems a bit regretful"
Gu Qing Shan politely replied: "She was just a bit excited to see you"
"Do you think she's beautiful?"
"Yes"
"Of course, Water Elves have the most outstanding appearance and posture, hm … I suddenly noticed that you're not too far away from {Mahesvara King} realm, would you like me to bestow you a Water Elf Kin?"
"… I appreciate your kindness, but I already have a beloved girl."
The old woman's interest was piqued. She whispered: "Water Fairy is the Elemental Spirit that is most compatible with humans. She can help you give birth to hundreds of children. You can definitely marry her — I can actually make the decision on this matter"
Gu Qing Shan's entire body stiffened, and she forced herself to say, "But I can't even feed myself right now, and there are still many things that I have to do."
"Hmm, that's true. It's indeed not suitable for you to start a family right now," the old woman said regretfully.
Gu Qing Shan breathed a sigh of relief.
The old woman led him out of the platform and slowly walked towards the royal court.
"Alright, let them play by themselves. Let's discuss your question," the old woman said as she walked.
"Indeed, venerable lady, I am a bit confused about the parallel world, because the Earth Creator has been preventing the monsters of the Abyss from obtaining the twin swords Heaven and Earth" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Child, how is your memory?" The old woman suddenly changed the topic and asked.
Gu Qing Shan was startled and replied, "Not bad."
"Then do you remember anything that happened when you were young?"
"That's a long time ago, I only remember a bit"
"When you were young, was there a time when you were particularly fond of swimming?"
"Do you know? Yes, that's right, it was probably during the summer when I was 6 years old "
"Is there anything else that left a deep impression on you during that summer?"
Gu Qing Shan appeared nostalgic and answered after a while: "I seem to recall that many countries had signed the Robot Convention at the time, and the public screens around the poolside were showing this every day"
The old woman clapped her hands and happily said: "Let us take a look at what happened during the summer when you were 6 years old"
Following her words, the entire world completely scattered into sand, disappearing from the surroundings of the two of them.
The two of them appeared in a different scene.
The sun was scorching hot.
The weather was scorching hot.
Gu Qing Shan looked at her topless younger self, wearing a pair of cute swimming shorts while sitting by the pool.
A large screen on the building next to the pool was showing an intense sports match.
By the pool, quite a few people were staring at the screen, drinking beer while cheering for their favorite team.
The young Gu Qing Shan was also kicking the water with her feet while watching the match on the screen.
The old woman said: "I don't think I've seen any news about the Robot Convention"
Gu Qing Shan confirmed: "It'll probably be shown after the match is over. I remember it very clearly, they'll definitely show something about the Robot Convention"
The old woman chanted an incantation and smiled: "Let's make time pass a bit faster"
— — as if she had pressed the fast forward button, everyone around the pool quickly moved. Time passed.
Before they knew it, the public screen flashed.
"We'll now broadcast an important piece of news"
"The world's Robot Convention has been successfully established, please read the details:"
On the screen, the world's leaders were sitting in a conference room, jointly announcing the news.
"We've established this convention to prevent the Robots …"
Their voices came from the screen.
For some reason, as Gu Qing Shan saw this, she couldn't help but sigh in relief.
"Take a look"
He pointed at the screen and spoke to the old woman.
The old woman smiled: "Hm, I can see it now. That's good, you've taken a turn and stepped onto a new path"
"However, what we need to observe now isn't the news you remember, but rather — — -"
The old woman clapped her hands.
The voice on the screen disappeared.
The leader of the country who spoke maintained his impassioned expression, his waving hand still in the air.
Around the pool, everyone's movements stopped.
Someone was licking the ice cream in his hand.
Someone leapt high up into the water, his body hovering in the air without moving.
Someone was yawning with his mouth wide open.
Someone was paddling in the water, splashing water everywhere and freezing in the air.
"Is this [Time Stop]?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"No, this is a Space-Time Stop spell — — - a small trick that I'm good at"
While answering, the old woman pointed around: "Now I'm going to test you. Take a closer look at these people and find out what's wrong"
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
What's wrong? What does that mean …
But since she said so, Gu Qing Shan could only nod to express that he understood and walked towards the pool.
While walking, he carefully observed his surroundings.
The pool was normal.
The crowd was normal.
The buildings were normal.
The screens and facilities were normal.
After confirming the situation, Gu Qing Shan turned to look at the old woman.
The old woman's face was covered by a veil, so Gu Qing Shan couldn't see her expression, but he could sense that she was smiling noncommittally.
This attitude means that there really is something wrong with this place.
This is just a normal scene from the past, how could there be anything wrong with it?
While convincing himself, Gu Qing Shan continued to walk around the pool.
He released his inner sight and scanned the entire swimming pool.
The pool was normal.
The crowd was normal.
The buildings were normal.
The screens and facilities were normal.
Wait a minute …
Gu Qing Shan suddenly stopped and looked at a young man.
This man had a normal appearance, wearing swimming trunks, a can of beer in his hand, leaning back on a chair, watching the public screen.
He seemed a bit excited, clenching his fist tightly, about to cheer.
Cheer?
Gu Qing Shan observed this normal looking man.
He couldn't help but walk in front of the man, taking a closer look.
Even though his inner sight allowed Gu Qing Shan to see clearly, he still couldn't help but do this — — as if he couldn't convince himself otherwise.
As Gu Qing Shan looked at the man, he felt a chill coming from his body.
That's not right …
Gu Qing Shan was startled, feeling an unprecedented sense of fear gripping his heart.
He quickly turned around to look at the scene on the public screen.
— — -on the screen, the leader of the country was still in the posture of giving a speech, his arm was still waving in the air.
That's right!
It really is news about the Robot Convention!
Gu Qing Shan turned around to face the young man again.
The man's expression was a bit expectant, holding his breath, waiting for a certain moment to come.
The man was ready to cheer and cheer.
The scene on the screen was faintly reflected in his eyes.
To capture a scene from a person's eyes, it required the use of specialized equipment in order to see it clearly.
But with his inner sight, Gu Qing Shan was able to clearly see what was being reflected in the man's eyes.
In the man's eyes, a group of athletes were fiercely fighting for the ball. They were making their final effort to win the match.
In the man's eyes, there was no such thing as the Robot Convention.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but take a few steps back.
He released his inner sight to scan the entire swimming pool.
Very quickly, he discovered a terrifying truth.
Even though the news was being broadcasted on the screen, at least a third of the people here were still watching the ball game.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but take a step back.
Even though we're in the same Space-Time, the Robot Convention is still being broadcasted, why aren't there any of them watching it?
This eerie scene was beyond his understanding of the world, completely overturning his memories.
— — -if I can't rely on anything that happens around me, then what else is real?
What exactly is everything that I'm experiencing right now?
Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried his best to remain calm.
The old lady observed him and was pleased to see how calm he was.
This level of truth was more than enough to destroy a person's willpower, and this brat appeared to be much calmer than most.
The old lady muttered to herself in satisfaction: 『What a calm and collected brat, no wonder the Earth Creator wanted me to take a look at you』
Gu Qing Shan returned and respectfully asked: "Madam, I don't understand, what exactly is going on?"
The old lady asked in return: "Do you remember what we were talking about at the start?"
Gu Qing Shan was surprised and couldn't help but recall.
Indeed, the esteemed Elemental Fairy King had even personally helped me erase the presence of a parallel world.
