Chapter 439: Gone
“This is for you,” Silverlight said with a smile. “This is the only evidence of our Atlantean royal blood. Ordinary people may not be able to perfectly rge with the eye, but it shouldn’t be a problem for you. Truth is the base ability of my mind’s eye. As for Ti Rewind, don’t use it lightly unless it is a last resort. It is too high a price to pay. However, you wouldn’t be able to use it for the ti being... Anyway, this is my final gift to you.
“Oh, right. About the sudden changes of weather on this planet, I understand it now ever since arriving at this ruin. It must be caused by Poseidon’s aura. I don’t know why this wormhole was activated again, causing Poseidon’s aura to leak and awakening the sleeping Guardian.”
“Is Poseidon able to get back?” Xiao Lin asked hastily.
“Rest assured. Although he is called the Sea God, he is not actually a true god. It is impossible to leave the chaos of ti and space. He is already at his limit by spreading his aura here. When you get back, all you have to do is sprinkle the ashes of my remains after I am gone on that sphere, and you will be able to seal the entrance once again.”
After saying these words, her figure gradually beca blurry. The surrounding light also rapidly dimd and darkened. Silverlight seed to have a lot more left to say, but in the end, she gave her final blessing with a smile. It was a blessing for Xiao Lin, or a blessing for humanity.
When Xiao Lin opened his eyes, he was back at the ruins. Gu Xiaoyue was anxiously waiting beside him, and when Xiao Lin ca to, she imdiately said, “Silverlight, she...”
Silverlight’s body was quickly aging on the ground until there was only a pile of black powder left. It spread all over the ground. Xiao Lin watched it all happen quietly, and in the end, he whispered, “Farewell! Thank you!”
“Is she-is she dead?” Gu Xiaoyue asked in a soft voice.
“Yes, and it is a true death this ti. Even her soul is completely gone. She will never co back.” Xiao Lin sighed.
Gu Xiaoyue did not have much affection for Silverlight, but still, she wore a look of anguish and said softly, “She might be the last Atlantean. If that is true, the Atlantean race is truly extinct.”
“No, the Atlanteans are not extinct!” Xiao Lin slowly said, “In the Ti Rewind, that black dragon said that there were human survivors at that ti. So, we are actually descendants of those survivors. There was never a gap in the continuity of human civilization!”
“So that’s why she was able to leave in peace.” Gu Xiaoyue was thoughtful. Although she did not enter Silverlight’s dream world, she understood when she saw the smile on Silverlight’s face in her final monts.
“What do we do with this sphere?”
“Poseidon is still exiled in the endless wormhole of ti. We finally sealed the guy, and we can never let him co out to harm humans again. So, let’s sink this entrance to the bottom of the sea!”
After a pause, Xiao Lin sullenly said, “Let this ruin be Silverlight’s final resting place. This may be the only remains of Atlantis that are still intact left in the world.”
Following Silverlight’s instructions, Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue carried the ashes away from the flood, and carefully sprinkled them over the sphere that simulated the solar system. Mysteriously, as the ashes fell onto the sphere, the black ashes imdiately exuded shining sparkles, like rays of starlight, swirling as they descended. It was beautiful.
When the ashes were dispersed, Xiao Lin noticed that the sphere that represented the planet started to spin slower and slower until it stopped moving completely. The fiery red sphere in the center that represented the sun dimd rapidly. It was like an extinguishing fla, no longer emitting any light or heat.
At the sa ti, Xiao Lin sensed Poseidon’s aura starting to dissipate from the ruins. It was as Silverlight said; the entrance was sealed once again.
“I think I understand now. This is probably similar to magic circles. Each sphere is placed in perfect precision of position and velocity. It is used to support the central wormhole with continuous energy,” Gu Xiaoyue said, but imdiately frowned and continued, “But it is strange. If we follow this theory, this energy support should be used to prevent the opening of the wormhole. Why would it be reopened?”
“Forget it. Let’s go back first.”
“Let’s do that.”
Xiao Lin gave the ruins a final glance before resolutely turning and leaving. At the gap that was knocked open, Big Bai was still loyally blocking the seawater with his soft body. He probably did not know of the passing of his master. Xiao Lin sighed again.
How could he communicate with Big Bai?
Xiao Lin touched the stone that Silverlight had given to him. Unexpectedly, Big Bai seed to understand his thoughts. Big Bai considerately stuck out a long, tongue-like strap, forming a staircase from the corridor to the gap.
Big Bai seed to have a high level of intelligence!
Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue followed it and returned to Big Bai’s belly. When Big Bai’s body left the gap, they began to float upward rapidly. Through the dim light, Xiao Lin watched as the turbulent seawater poured into the ruins, until all that was left to be seen was the darkness of the deep sea once again.
“Are we going back to Hawaii?” Gu Xiaoyue asked.
Xiao Lin thought for a mont, then shouted, “Big Bai! Can you send us sowhere else? Say, the coastal areas of China. Uh, just, far away from here.”
‘Wuu, wuu...’
Big Bai let out a deep cry. Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue looked at each other. After so ti, Xiao Lin coughed dryly, “If you can, make a sound. If you can’t, then do it twice.”
Silverlight probably did not consider communication issues. Even if Big Bai was a highly intelligent creature, this was still a big obstacle between it and Xiao Lin. However, it could still understand simple terms, and let out a short cry.
Xiao Lin was relieved at this. If they went back to Hawaii now, not only might they bump into people from other academies, they might even bump into a Guardian of the Sea God. He did not want to get involved in the battle. There were no operational ships or planes in Hawaii at the mont. It would be better to take this convenient ‘submarine’ directly back to their country.
After that, it was a long journey under the sea. Every once in a while, Big Bai would cleverly float back up to the surface, allowing Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue to co out and breathe. It also restored the air reserves in its body.
As Poseidon’s aura dissipated, schools of fish began to erge once again. Big Bai would sotis playfully chase the schools of fish, and would even easily catch a few and swallow them whole. The fish would plop down in front of Xiao Lin, leaving him dumbfounded. He could not eat the raw fish, but still, he expressed his gratitude to Big Bai.
