Chapter: Chapter 557
“There’s no other way. A complete world requires more attention than a broken one, not to mention the many lives currently existing within these few worlds.” The Traveler had no solution for this situation and could only recommend that Leticia practice more.
If the worlds to be merged had no life, Leticia’s operational precision could be slightly less, and perhaps there wouldn’t be any problems. Small errors would be acceptable; at worst, they could be fixed later.
But in the current situation, Leticia had to be extremely cautious with everything. A moment’s carelessness could cause tens of thousands of lives to vanish under her hands. For Leticia, such a feeling was too heavy.
“Don’t overthink it. You’ve completed your mission by saving the entire world.” The Traveler saw Leticia’s unease and patted her head twice. With a smile, she said, “Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. You’re not who you used to be. Being able to achieve this under duress is the best possible outcome.”
“If anyone blames you for this, I’ll let them know that some words should not be spoken.”
Compared to the world consciousnesses of other worlds he had encountered, Leticia’s world consciousness was the Traveler’s favorite type. Although a little foolish, it was full of humanity.
Unlike those world consciousnesses who only knew how to maintain the world’s existence according to the rules, the former world consciousness of this world was quite ambitious. It had distributed all its powers and created a stunning event.
The outcome wasn’t great, but it was ultimately a very meaningful attempt, wasn’t it?
It was much better than those worlds that had been lifeless and unchanged for tens of millions of years.
“Yes, I understand.” After being enlightened by the Traveler, Leticia’s thoughts were no longer as hesitant. If she didn’t act, all four worlds would perish. If she acted, even if some were sacrificed, it would only be considered necessary losses.
She was not an omniscient and omnipotent god, and perhaps no such being existed in this world. Doing her best was the best she could do right now.
“Cheer up, I believe in you.” Seeing that Leticia’s mood had improved considerably, the Traveler nodded and turned to look at Yin and Yinfeinuo, who were hiding to the side and afraid to speak. “I’ve found the remaining divine artifacts. They’re at Leticia’s house. You can go back and get them later.”
“Oh, alright!” Yin quickly replied.
Speaking of which, how many of those remaining divine artifacts were there?
As if sensing Yin’s question, the Traveler proactively said, “Not many. The God Seat’s efficiency in collecting divine artifacts is quite high. The remaining divine artifacts in the four worlds are only a few that were buried outside the civilized domains.”
In other words, all the divine artifacts that could be found have been found. With over twenty deities across the four worlds, the average number wasn’t a particularly outrageous figure.
However, the world consciousness at the time being able to divide its powers into so many parts was a bit outrageous.
“I have some other matters to attend to, so I won’t be staying here long.” After conveying what she needed to say, the Traveler disappeared into the light again.
Truly as swift as the wind.
Leticia exchanged glances with Yinfeinuo and Yin, seeing the same emotion in their eyes. This influential figure was truly unfathomable.
…
Time passed day by day. In the short period before the Tides of the Star Sea arrived, Leticia and Bai Ling’s progress could be described as rapid. From initial experimental failures to now being able to quickly merge world fragments, it was almost a complete transformation.
Now, Leticia could even compress the time for modifying basic laws to within a minute, which surprised even the Traveler.
Was this the talent of a world consciousness? It was indeed beyond ordinary people’s imagination.
However, Leticia didn’t have time to further hone her skills. She was now traveling all over the world, conducting final checks on the locations of the world’s core points.
The combined strength of the four races was incredibly powerful. In just a few days, the places that needed core points established had them.
Of course, the creation of core points wasn’t particularly difficult. A few large wooden poles supporting a large crystal constituted a core point. The crystals were distributed casually by the Traveler. As long as the person establishing the core point drew a magic circle on the ground and injected their extraordinary power, they could obtain a crystal.
It was very convenient, and Leticia was also a bit tempted to learn this spell from the Traveler, but she didn’t have time now. She needed to complete the final inspection.
Colored threads emerged from her palm and seeped into the crystal overhead. Leticia closed her eyes and, using the crystal as a medium, adjusted the law parameters for the surrounding area.
These minor adjustments to basic laws wouldn’t cause any macroscopic reactions. Leticia just wanted to reduce her workload later.
“Now, the most important core points for the elf race are all set.” Leticia retracted the threads and looked at the crystal placed atop the Tree of Life of the elves, saying to Evangeline beside her, “The merging will begin soon. Evangeline, are you nervous?”
Evangeline, who was following Leticia, shook her head, a faint smile appearing on her face. “I am a little nervous, but I’ve also fulfilled my greatest wish. I wouldn’t mind dying now.”
It seemed that Her Majesty the Empress and her little sweetheart had a very good time these days… Leticia sighed, feeling a bit envious of Evangeline.
She had been experimenting day and night in the void, honing her skills, while Evangeline was also honing skills, just in other areas. Truly, comparing oneself to others could be infuriating.
“Sigh, thank you, Evangeline. You’ve lightened my burden so much!” Leticia grabbed Evangeline’s face and tugged at it fiercely. “I have absolutely no pressure now!”
In her heart, she was already thinking about how to make your death more comfortable!
“Show off your affection in front of me, and you shall all perish!”
“Cough!” Miss Bai, who was watching from the side, coughed lightly, reminding Leticia that she was still there.
Although Leticia and Evangeline had interacted intimately before, Miss Bai wasn’t present then. But now Miss Bai had returned and was by Leticia’s side, so she couldn’t just watch Leticia cause trouble like this.
Leticia finally realized that she still had a jealous person with her, so she quickly retracted her hand and smiled awkwardly. “Well, that’s what I mean.”
“Pfft.” Evangeline chuckled, covering her mouth, but she quickly composed herself and said to Leticia with a serious expression, “The future of everyone is in your hands, Leticia. I wish you great success!”
“Don’t put pressure on me at a time like this!”
“Pressure can give you more motivation to move forward, hehe.” Evangeline chuckled a couple of times. “You still have to go to the Orcs, right?”
“Yes, the human and demon races have been inspected. I’ll go to the Orcs for the final inspection shortly. After this inspection… we’ll begin merging the worlds.”
Unconsciously, it had come to this final moment. All four worlds were ready, and the temporarily built shelters were also prepared to receive displaced refugees at any time.
Everything was ready.
A dark spatial tunnel opened, and Yin jumped out, saying to Leticia, “Let’s go, it’s time to go to the Orcs.”
“Alright.” Leticia nodded and waved goodbye to Evangeline. “Wait for my good news!”
“Then I’ll await your triumphant return.”
…
Returning to the familiar grassland, Leticia quickly located the core point established there. To be honest, the Orcs were the place she was most worried about. The Orcs’ brains were notoriously slow, and Leticia feared that something might go wrong here.
But now, it seemed that giving the Orcs some confidence wasn’t a bad thing. The core point layout on this grassland was essentially problem-free, and the situation in the Great Desert was much the same.
They had done a very good job, although the demons had sent people to help out a bit.
“Bai Ling, you can wait for me at the royal tent first. Yin and I will go check other places.” After confirming the location of the core points, Leticia turned to Bai Ling.
This was how she had arranged it before: she would handle the core points, and Bai Ling would wait at the core point that needed final adjustments, which could be considered a clear division of labor.
“Okay, come back as soon as possible.” Bai Ling nodded and transformed into a streak of starlight, shooting towards the royal tent.
After seeing Bai Ling off, Leticia and Yin began to teleport, check, teleport, and check without stopping. Fortunately, neither of them was ordinary. Otherwise, such frequent teleportation would be enough to make one vomit and lose their ability to move.
As for Leticia and Yin, they had grown accustomed to the dizziness of spatial teleportation.
It didn’t take long for Leticia to finish setting up the Orcs’ core points, taking even less time than for the elves. This kind of thing was a matter of practice making perfect. From being somewhat unskillful at the beginning to being able to complete the inspection with her eyes closed now, Leticia had grown significantly in a short period.
“You’re progressing rapidly, Leti. Only the last node remains. Once that’s done, it’ll be a complete success, right?” Yin stretched his muscles and said to Leticia.
“Yes, then we’ll return to the human world to reclaim all the remaining powers and begin the final step.” Leticia nodded, a hint of worry appearing on her face. “The closer it gets to that moment, the more afraid I become, afraid that I’ll fail everyone’s expectations…”
“Don’t be so sentimental. This is a time for fighting. Without you, everyone will die. With you, everyone still has a chance to live. This is a great deal. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.” Yin laughed heartily. “No one will complain even if you fail, don’t worry.”
“I’d rather fail and have people complain about me.” Leticia shrugged. If they failed this time, no one would be able to complain about her.
Everyone would die together, so who would be left to complain?
Hah, Yin was right. Now wasn’t the time for sentimentality. Striving for success was the most crucial thing.
“Let’s go, to the royal tent to adjust the last node, then return to the human world.”
“Got it!”
…
When Leticia arrived at the Orc royal tent, quite a few people had already gathered there, including many familiar faces. Elders from the Dragon race, Linglong, and Silverfang were all there.
They seemed to have come specifically to see Leticia. As soon as they saw her, they excitedly waved her over.
The elders of the Dragon race came to thank Leticia for helping them survive the crisis of their race’s extinction and for allowing them to walk in this world openly.
As for the other girls, they didn’t have that many thoughts; they simply wanted to see Leticia.
After adjusting the last core point in the Orc world, Leticia chatted with these friends she had made among the Orcs, receiving their blessings and encouragement.
“Actually, I’ve always been a very reclusive person. To have made so many friends, it feels quite magical.” After chatting with her friends, Leticia said to Bai Ling by her side with a hint of emotion.
It seemed like not long ago, she was still alone, with only Xue’er taking care of her. But in the blink of an eye, so many friends had appeared by her side.
These friends were all from different races and worlds. Elves, Orcs, and Humans all had her close friends, and she had deep connections with these worlds.
Perhaps… this was fate’s choice?
Did that former Demon King, Leticia’s grandmother, see this scene?
“It’s a good thing, isn’t it?” Bai Ling said softly, pulling Leticia into her arms. “It’s much better than being alone before. Doesn’t it feel good to be encouraged and blessed by friends?”
“Of course. I never experienced this feeling before. Even when I received blessings, the emotions within were more of fear than anything else. But now, they have no fear in their hearts.” Looking at the Orcs gathered not far away, a faint smile appeared on Leticia’s face. “That sword of yours cut out a different future.”
“Yes, so shouldn’t you be thanking me? If I hadn’t cut you, you’d still be living in darkness.”
“You’re getting too full of yourself with a little encouragement. Scram!”
…
It’s entering the final stage.
