I've spread the Heaven and Earth realms throughout the God-Slaying World.

"Continuing with the previous question, why did you say it was to go home?"

After glancing at Qi Xiaoyu and confirming that there were no other factors interfering, Lin En continued to ask questions.

"grown ups……"

Hai Lanlan looked at Lynn, then at the 007 team and the others, as if she had something difficult to say.

“Let’s go, Xiaoyu. Didn’t you say you were going to cook for the Plague Doctor? Come on, let’s go help out.”

As expected of the vice-captain Han Qing, she instantly understood what the other party meant; the relationship between the mysterious and the human was never friendly.

Not to mention that Hai Lanlan is a mermaid, a highly intelligent species. Those who are not of our kind are bound to have different intentions.

Although she didn't know how Lynn had gained Hailanlan's trust, that didn't mean the other party believed them.

"Huh? Sister Han Qing, when did I... Waaaaah!"

Before Qi Xiaoyu could finish speaking, a hand suddenly covered her mouth, and she was forcibly dragged away.

boom--! !

With the office door slamming shut, only Lynn and Hailanlan remained in the room.

“Alright, now we can be frank with each other,” Lynn said.

"Ah."

Hai Lanlan responded shyly.

"what!!!"

"No, why are you taking off your clothes?" Lynn asked, her eyes wide with astonishment.

"Didn't you tell me to be honest with myself, sir?"

Hai Lanlan looked completely innocent.

"........."

Lynn was speechless for a moment. After a serious warning, Hai Lanlan finally put on her black robe again.

"Continuing from the previous question, why can't you go home?" Lynn steered the conversation back on track.

"Because Wuyou was captured by humans."

"Worry-free? Um... isn't there also a media company?"

"???"

"Media...sir, what does that mean? Worry-free is Worry-free, it's a cloud whale."

Hai Lanlan looked at Lin En with a puzzled expression.

“It’s nothing…” Looking into those clear and innocent eyes, like those of a college student, Lynn’s conscience ached.

“Our Merfolk have lived in the South China Sea since ancient times, in the South China Sea Ruins,” Hai Lanlan paused, “but it seems… I think… I accidentally went too far and flew out.”

"It flew out?"

Lynn did know a little about the South China Sea Ruins.

A bottomless valley in the sea

It refers to a place where many waters converge.

It's actually similar to a flush toilet, where water is constantly being pumped in.

“Yes, it flew out.” Hai Lanlan continued to explain, “Guixu is a very peculiar place. In short, you’ll know why it’s strange when you go there, but you need a cloud whale to go in or out.”

"There is only one Narwhal in each era. When the previous generation of Narwhal reaches the end of its lifespan, a new one will be born."

"Isn't that amazing, sir?"

Hai Lanlan turned her gaze to the night sky through the window, "The Merfolk and the Cloud Whale complement each other, because they can only enter and exit the Ruins of Return through it."

“However…” Hai Lanlan stuck out her tongue, “A few days ago, when this generation of cloud whales was learning how to cross the Ruins of Return, I encouraged them to go out and see the outside world.”

"Everything was fine until we were about to go back, when Wuyou was suddenly attracted by something, and then we were surrounded by a group of people...blah blah..."

Hai Lanlan became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and finally burst into tears.

"If it weren't for saving me... Wuyou wouldn't have been captured by those people... (t▽t) Waaaaah."

"........."

According to Hai Lanlan's account, and considering everything Qi Xiaoyu told Lin En when they returned, it was a very normal routine.

The mysterious club uses some kind of forbidden object to capture marine mysteries near the South China Sea. A cloud whale is attracted to it and chooses to sacrifice itself to protect Hai Lanlan. Hai Lanlan then goes to save the cloud whale.

It's a very ordinary nesting doll.

What needs to be done now is to investigate this mysterious club.

It's also in the South China Sea, and it's a recently emerged force, with a leader from the Sea Realm among its members.

It's hard not to believe that this club has nothing to do with Ye Fan's mission.

"By the way, where did you get that mask you're wearing around your waist?"

After offering a few words of comfort to Hai Lanlan, Lynn finally got back on track, though she didn't know why Mumuen had orchestrated so much.

But he still had to jump in.

"My lord, this mask is a sacred object from the merman altar, and only the saintess is qualified to wear it."

"uh-huh."

Lynn nodded, it was the same old routine, and gestured for her to continue.

"According to records, thousands of years ago, our Merfolk were just an ordinary race. However, due to some changes in the world... it seems to be some kind of pollution, many sea creatures perished at that time, but we survived because of a god."

"From now on, I will obey the gods' arrangements and forever guard the South China Sea Ruins. This mask was left behind by that god, who also left a divine decree."

As Hai Lanlan spoke, she stretched out her right hand, and a cappuccino on the desk floated up slowly under her control.

The coffee cup spun in the air, as if held by an invisible hand. Then, the liquid inside began to flow, forming a strange shape. As time passed, the shape gradually became clearer, eventually transforming into a bird's beak mask.

"This is the token of the divine messenger. The oracle says, 'The divine messenger will lead the merfolk to a new peak.'"

Thousands of years ago? Pollution?

Great, all the elements are there. Needless to say, what else besides an invasion of the Cthulhu pantheon could cause such contamination?

"Let me guess, is the record of that deity related to death and night, was she a woman, and had a rather wicked sense of humor?"

Lynn recalled Hai Lanlan's gentle kiss on the back of her hand and silently cursed Mumuen in her heart again.

"no!"

A shy blush rose on Hai Lanlan's face. She scratched her head a little embarrassedly and said softly.

"Um... this... (?????????????) Hehehe, actually, I saw the gesture of lightly kissing the back of the hand in a human book. I thought it was so cool, so I memorized it."

"Then, after seeing the divine messenger, I couldn't help myself..."

Lynn: ………

"As for that deity, he is not female... or rather, male."

"???"

Hai Lanlan stood there quietly, her eyes gently closed, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

He bowed slightly, clasped his hands together, and as his lips moved gently, a gust of wind blew through the window.

The sounds of friction mingled with the mermaid girl's murmurs, as if chanting the name of some being.

"The final dragon of chaos returning to nothingness,"

"The uncrowned emperor who controls destiny."
