Danheng interrupted Aglaya, "Ms. Aglaya, could you please wait a moment? Now that the storm has subsided, we would like to complete a mission: leaving a beacon of pioneering here. I assure you, this will not bring any negative consequences—please consider it a rite of passage."

Aglaya was stunned for a moment, "Exploration"... "Beacon"... "

The next moment, she smiled faintly, "No problem. Please feel free to do as you please."

[Although, although I know Qiong and Danheng are good people, but isn't this Aglaya too unguarded?]

[I also find it a bit strange, some people have big breasts but no brains. ]

【Didn't Bai'e say they were good people? 】

What if this is all staged? It's fine if we know everything from a bird's-eye view, but Aglaya doesn't know the true identity of the train crew, right?

[Perhaps Aglaya has some means of knowing this? Again, I don't think Bengtie would make such a low-level mistake.]

-

After hearing Aglaya's answer, Qiong waved his right hand towards an open space.

call out--

A "boundary anchor" appeared in front of everyone.

Dan Heng smiled. "This way, Omphalos has a 'realm anchor'—another major step forward in 'expansion'."

[Sorry, I can't hold it together for a while, so were those pillars that appeared earlier all inserted one by one by the nameless guest?]

[So the anchor points were all given by myself! ]

So Pam can sense that there's an extra landmark?

[I don’t know why, but I suddenly feel like laughing.]

[So that's how it came about? ]

-

Qiong nodded, noncommittal, "Praise Avi!"

"Uh..." Dan Heng reacted for a few seconds, "You want to say Achievelli, right?"

Aglaya watched the two perform silently. When it was over, she said, "What a wonderful departure ceremony. I am even more curious about your origins."

But at this moment, please allow me to fulfill my duties as host… The conversation that follows will be quite lengthy. My two distinguished guests, let’s find a suitable place to listen.”

After that, Aglaia led the two of them to a bathing area. She pointed to the bathtub in the middle of the bathing area and said that this was a gift left by the Ocean Titan, which could answer the questions of the two train crew members.

Although feeling a little embarrassed, Qiong and Danheng still entered and came to the bathing elf.

An old man's voice suddenly sounded, and for some reason Qiong yawned after hearing this voice.

Then, the elf began to tell the story of Omfalos' past and present life.

This section of the introduction contains a lot of information, such as Titan, war, Golden Descendants, and Fire...

Hearing this made Qiong feel annoyed.

At this moment, Aglaya interrupted the bathing elf and asked Qiong, "What's wrong? The elf hasn't finished her story yet, but I sense... anxiety and uneasiness from you."

【What the hell is this talking about? 】

I didn't understand a single word.

There's so much information and so much scope involved. This is the first time Bengtie has crammed so much into the opening chapter.

[Who can understand this? It's even harder than what my Chinese teacher explains.]

[But did you notice that Qiong didn't say anything, he was just upset, but Aglaya paid attention.]

[And the word she used was "feelings"!]

-

After some communication, Aglaya understood what was bothering Qiong.

Then she said to the elf, "Bathroom elf, please listen to me. Please continue to tell this distinguished guest the story in the words he prefers—"

The next moment, another elf that looked like a butterfly flew out.

At this moment, she made the sound of Tibao.

"Okay! Sit down, Omphalos' history lesson is about to continue!"

Qiong raised his thumbs and said, "I understand now."

"Hey—don't interrupt! We're in class now, ahem, where were we last time—oh yeah!"

"In the beginning, Omphalos was chaos!"

"Then, the three Fate Titans wove the laws of the world; the three Pillar Titans created the earth, the sea, and the sky; the three Creation Titans forged life, you, and me—"

"—Finally, three villainous Titans descended upon the world, unleashing a horrific disaster!"

"The Titans were furious. No one gave in to the other. Their people also began to be hostile to each other and started to fight and kill each other."

"This divine war raged on for ages, bringing misfortune to all beings in heaven and on earth. Until one day—something truly horrific happened!"

Qiong put her hands on her hips and said, "I will make a grand appearance!"

"It's not your turn yet! No interrupting in class!"

"An oracle appeared! It suddenly descended upon Omphalos—"

"The three-phase oracle said there is only one way to end this war—"

"That is to gather a group of heroes powerful enough to challenge the twelve Titans and rekindle their "spark." In this way, the wrath of the gods will be appeased, and peace will return to the world."

Bathhouse Elf: "And these heroes share a common name. Do you remember what they are called? That's right—the Golden One!"

"So, everyone understands, right? You must eat well, drink well, and keep exercising. Only then will you be able to become a great hero when you grow up and dedicate your strength to Omphalos—"

[Okay, now I understand.]

[Why does it feel like the channel has switched from science and education to children's?]

[The epic opera instantly transforms into a children's cartoon.]

[The storytelling style changes according to the listener, so the Star Core Spirit is worthy of being a Star Core Spirit! ]

【He's only two years old, that's what I am talking about.】

-

"Hmm? What happened this time?" Aglaya asked.

Qiong scratched his head, "It seems to treat me as a child..."

"I see...it seems you're a very complicated person, somewhat innocent yet also quite sensitive."

However, through this description, Qiong also had a basic understanding of Omphalos's predicament.

"You two already have a basic understanding of the history of Omphalos. Next, let's get to the point. Please follow me." After saying that, Aglaia left the bathhouse and continued walking forward.

soon.

The three of them came to a device that looked like an elevator.

But Aglaya stopped and said tactfully that there was a bathhouse just for the Golden Race up there, but due to their status, Aglaya was willing to make an exception.

only……

Only one person can go up at a time.

Love is waiting here!

[Is this an attempt to separate the two? ]

[I also feel something is amiss. Aglaya is a rather odd person.]

-

Qiong and Danheng looked at each other, and finally Danheng decided to let Qiong go first and he would follow.

【Teacher Danheng is still good! 】

[This is the story of Danheng giving up his seat. Do you understand?]

【Hehe...the barrage is so stupid. 】

[Dan Heng is so smart, can't he see it? ]

[I think Dan Heng did this on purpose. He might have guessed something. Anyway, I just need to go up later as a backup.]

[Yes, don't forget that Dan Heng also has a form-tearing liberation.]

After arriving at the second floor, Aglaya sat down at a stone table in the dome bath.

“Find a comfortable position and close your eyes.”

"Do you want to close your eyes again?"

"This isn't forced, but... people bathe in water to be honest with each other. Do you believe me?"

Qiong shrugged, chose to sit down, and closed his eyes.

Although I couldn't see Aglaya, I could tell she was very satisfied with Qiong's performance. "...Thank you. And please move a little to the left. It will be warmer that way."

Qiong took a deep breath and leaned to the left.

The amazing thing is that after just moving a few centimeters, the water around me became noticeably warmer.

"Now, please place your left hand on the table, raise your forearm, palm facing forward, and spread your fingers slightly..."

Qiong followed Aglaia's instructions and did everything.

"That's right, very good. To make up for my belated self-introduction, I'm Aglaia the Golden Weaver, tailor of Ohma and one of the Golden Descendants of Omphalos. Thanks to the trust of my comrades, I'm temporarily in charge of the Golden Descendants' operations."

While my main job is weaving fine garments, in my personal time, I love this bathhouse the most. Ultimately, clothing is a barrier, concealing our bodies and hearts... But here, we can let go of our disguises, and the flowing water brings us closer.

Now you can open your eyes. See, we are connected.”

Qiong slowly opened her eyes and saw a familiar golden thread wrapped around her left hand, and the other end of the golden thread was held in Aglaya's hand.

He looked serious, "What kind of trap is this..."

Aglaya kept a smile on her face. "A trap? Of course not. Please treat it as a ritual of communication. The golden thread of Meneta is wrapped around you and me, and it can detect the slightest fluctuation. In this way, we cannot lie to each other.

Next, I will tell you the truth about this world. In return, I need you to make a small promise.

Only after completing this exchange can I promise you a smooth journey in Omphalos."

Qiong replied calmly, "What if I can't promise?"

Aglaia didn't seem surprised by Qiong's answer, and now she explained Omphalos's current predicament from another dimension.

The Golden Descendants are the only hope of this world. Only by gathering all the fires can the broken world be reborn.

"A group of heroes embarked on a journey to slay gods, to obtain the twelve sparks and achieve the great cause of re-creation. We are trapped in the end times and need to guide thousands of people to the mountaintop. Ohma urgently needs more allies to become our solid support. Perhaps you are the "reinforcements" the Golden People are waiting for."

Now Qiong understood. It turned out that they were waiting for him. "Saving the world is indeed our specialty."

Hearing this, Aglaia smiled knowingly, "You must have personally experienced many miracles to be able to say this without hesitation. Perhaps I am a little impatient... For Omphalos, I am willing to give it a try."

I've already laid my heart bare with you. Now, I just want you to make a promise. Please promise me: no matter what, don't reveal the existence of the "Outer World" to the public.

Qiong couldn't help but frowned, "Why?"

"Because Ohma's time is running out, I don't want to give people false hope...the world has been deeply hurt by it. Will you grant me this request?"

[Wait a minute! What do you mean by "been it"?]

【Has anyone been here before?】

Is this a foreshadowing?

So what is it that cannot be said?

[Perhaps the citizens here, knowing that there are extraterrestrials, will want to go outside, or seek help or something.]

But isn’t this better?

[Remember the moment the carriage was elbowed down by a spear at the beginning? Perhaps that's because once it's in the air, it's vulnerable to attack.]

[But it's far-fetched.]

【That’s why birds must fly to the sky.】

[There should be an explanation later. It's mainly because we've only just started, and the official announcement about Season 8 being incredibly long and potentially taking a year to finish is just the beginning. How can we even begin to understand this?]

[Don't tell me you'll reveal this clue in half a year. I'd really appreciate it!]

-

After thinking for a while, Qiong nodded and said, "I swear."

Before he finished speaking, the golden thread wrapped around his hand emitted a bright light and was immediately taken back by Aglaya.

She said that although she still wanted to chat, Danheng seemed a little impatient, and his anxiety disrupted the flow of water.

He suggested that Qiongxian Danheng meet up, stroll around the Holy City, and meet again later.

……

Not long after.

Qiong hurriedly ran to Dan Heng.

Seeing Qiong's figure, Dan Heng also breathed a sigh of relief. "Finally she's back. What did she say to you?"

Qiong relayed the information he had obtained from Aglaya and the agreement he had reached with her to Danheng.

After listening, Dan Heng held his chin with one hand and fell into deep thought.

"I didn't expect her only concern was that we'd spread rumors of interstellar travel to the public. This mirrors Bai'e's reaction in Chongyuan.

This world was indeed somewhat strange. Even in a closed world like Yalilo-6, the locals had a basic understanding of space, even knowing about destiny and star gods.

But in Omphalos, the sky is more like... a prison. Even talking about the outer space has become a taboo. Even with such advanced technology...

Remember that mass of chaotic matter that obscured the world? I've always had a hunch that Omphalos was artificially sealed off. Those Titans in mythology might also be connected to a certain star god.

Qiong, on the other hand, didn't care too much, "I only care about your broken gun..."

After Jingqiong's reminder, Danheng had a good idea. "Bai'e means that he can handle it. If you meet him, just ask him.

Let's do as Aglaya said and look around. We participated in the defense of the holy city, so while people still have their impressions, we can get some information from them. And while we're at it, take a few photos for your records."

[I can confirm that the photos will be very useful in the future! ]

[Oh my god, Dan Heng still cares so much about March 7th.]

[Just kidding, Dan Heng really cherishes his current companions. After all, in his previous life, one went crazy, one went insane, one died, and one was under a lot of pressure!]

[Hey, hey, hey, why are people throwing knives in the comments too? ]

Although Teacher Danheng may be a little bored, he still has a partner in mind and is very reliable!

[Can you believe how big a mess the Trail Blazers and March 7th can cause you if they act together?]

-

Not long after.

Dan Heng and Qiong arrived at the market in the holy city.

Looking at the people coming and going, it seems like there was a war here just now.

"The citizens have all returned, really quickly."

The next moment, Dan Heng noticed that there were quite a few people gathered in front of him. "What are they doing there?"

Based on the principle of less trouble and less excitement, the two of them came to where the crowd gathered.

"Excuse me, do you need any help?"
