Furthermore, the ancient whale beast seemed to have a bad temper, and many martial artists dared not approach it when they saw it get angry.

The deep blue sea was dark and suffocating.

Countless aquatic creatures swam around the ancient whale-like beast, or kept their distance. These creatures were no longer recognizable because their size and appearance had changed so drastically.

The ancient whale swam towards the depths of the sea, its destination unknown, but its occasional cry revealed its anxiety.

Lin Yu'er has decided to give up on Pale.

Therefore, she put herself in solitary confinement.

In the solitary confinement room, Lin Yu'er's body had been completely taken over by System 077. 077 looked at its own body from left to right, its eyes filled with a sense of wonder.

This was its first time being human, and it was quite excited. Lin Yu'er had already been hypnotized by it. Today, the name of this body would become its 077.

However, 077 wasn't going out; it was using Lin Yu'er's body to prepare some things.

The struggle for ownership has now reached a fever pitch, so we can't worry about it during this time; let it observe our actions.

It didn't want to bother its master with these trivial matters, so in the time to come, it would deal with that idiot 125 and its host, and they would all die together.

However, the most urgent task is to absorb the power of the ball's core and mark it with the owner's mark. It was not easy to lock it in, and if it runs away, all the previous efforts will be in vain.

077 thought for a moment, then closed her eyes again.

In the following days, Oborozuki and Paobai left footprints all over the body of the ancient whale, but they still couldn't get out.

Just as Longyue placed her hand on the flesh of the ancient whale beast, a delicate, childlike voice rang out.

"Save this world!"

Please help us!

Longyue paused, glancing at the pale-faced man. "Did you hear anything?"

Pale-faced, frowning: "What was that sound?"

"Put your hand on my flesh and you can communicate with me."

Longyue held the pale hand and pressed it against the fleshy wall.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to swallow you. I was just very anxious. The core of the ball has been targeted by bad guys, and its power is disappearing. Please save it, or we will all die."

"You are... an ancient whale beast?" Longyue looked at this enormous creature and found it unbelievable. A monster could actually communicate with humans?

They exchanged a glance with the pale man beside them, and both saw shock in each other's eyes.

This is even more surprising than seeing an SSS-class monster appear.

"It's me, it's me." The ancient whale beast was very happy; the child's voice was clear and crisp, with an inherently soft and cute quality.

"How can you communicate with us?" Pale couldn't understand it at all. This world wasn't their fantasy world, so how could such a thing happen?

"Ah, perhaps it's because I am the guardian beast of the ball's heart. I have been sleeping beside the ball's heart for a hundred years, and only then did I awaken from my slumber."

The ancient whale was very happy. It had been a long time since it had interacted with humans, so it started babbling on and on about everything it knew.

"I am the guardian beast of the ball's heart, always sleeping beside it. I can only wake up when the ball's heart is in danger."

“A hundred years ago, Qiu Xin fell seriously ill, so I awoke from my slumber. I thought Qiu Xin would get better after a while, but even after I took a nap, Qiu Xin was still sickly and wouldn’t talk to me. I couldn’t help it.”

"Just a few days ago, an external energy directly enveloped the ailing core of the sphere. What frightens me even more is that it is also consuming the core's energy. The new book's body was already very weak, how could it withstand such extraction?"

"Wait, what you mean by the center of the ball is..."

Pale and Obsidian were completely confused. What was this "sphere core"? What was this "guardian beast"?

Isn't this world just a mix of monsters and humans?

Why are there still so many things they don't know?

"It's the origin of this planet. The core of the planet is lovely, but it's sick that attracted these bad guys. They're bad guys who want to devour the core and take its place!"

As the ancient whale beast spoke, the child's voice was filled with anger and a sense of helplessness.

“I know you are also outsiders, so you can definitely save Qiu Xin. You must wake Qiu Xin up. If Qiu Xin doesn’t wake up, this planet will really be doomed.”

Longyue and Cangbai frowned, knowing that they were outsiders, and that there were other outsiders among them.

After thinking for a moment, Longyue asked again, "Then what is this external energy you mentioned?"

In fact, Longyue also had a guess in her heart, because there was also a foreign object on her body. Although she didn't know where it came from, she was certain that the thing that called itself a system did not come from R planet, because R planet's technology had not reached such a developed level.

Therefore, she must have come from somewhere else, and considering how many years she has lived in this world, that "somewhere else" might be another planet.

Furthermore, the places she used to live in, those self-proclaimed dimensions, might have originated from a planet.

“I don’t know where it comes from, but I feel the same energy fluctuations in you, and I think you should know that.”

Soon, the ancient whale answered their questions.

"Just as I thought!" Oborozuki realized.
