Chapter 2752 2753, Inheriting the Underground World (3)
——???——
Desert Spire.
Through repeated questioning, Sherlock took some time to figure out what was going on with Melina and this isolated island in the desert. Fortunately, she was not impatient. Melina had a "mirror body" that might have been inherited from her. ", with enough power to interfere with the entire world, but apart from the reflection in the mirror, I don't know any information about "her" - after all, no one will introduce themselves in front of the mirror.
Shao. She has common sense roughly equivalent to the average human level. She can understand most of what Sherlock says and respond appropriately. However, there are obvious abnormalities in some views or logic, especially when it comes to destroying or saving the world.
When talking about topics such as the world.
The name Melina was given to herself for unknown reasons. As for this special world, it was not a desert at the beginning. It originally had different landforms and buildings, but there were no living creatures, and the sky was the same as it is now. It's the same, it's like a cloudy sky spreading out
Light gray with a faint glow.
I don’t know how long it took before it was buried by the sand transformed by the destroyed world and became what it is today.
When Melina decides to save a certain "sand world", the scene of that world will replace the desert scene outside the "tower" and show a moment before the world's final destruction.
In this case, this "tower" that should be connected to a larger building below can be teleported to any place in that world for observation according to Melina's ideas. In addition, when she wants to know about this world When she receives a certain kind of information or information about a race, country or even a single resident living in it, she will get a formulaic briefing, the content of which is similar to what she has read before.
, a short introduction describing "Bao" and how its world was destroyed.
And when Melina has made a plan and is ready to save the world, as long as she steps out of this tower, the world will start to move according to its previous trajectory towards the end.
If the world cannot be saved from destruction, it will turn back into sand and fall into the desert. Otherwise, the grain of sand will disappear - at least this is what Melina is sure of.
After all, until Sherlock fell from the sky, she had never succeeded once. The plans she thought were perfect would always fail to achieve their goals due to various reasons. Even if they could bring about huge changes in those worlds, they would never be able to achieve their goals. Change their final outcome - unless it's a different kind
Destruction can be considered salvation.

"Can we start? 'Supreme Mage'?" Melina asked, blinking her bright eyes.
Although she will not be bored, it is foreseeable that after Sherlock offered to help her save the world and then asked a bunch of related questions, her expectations were raised.
"Last question," Sherlock asked: "Why don't you turn back time when your plan goes awry and prevent the mistake from happening?"
"It can't be done," Melina shook her head: "I can adjust the 'start time', but once the world starts to move, it cannot be reversed, which will directly lead to its destruction."
"Hmm..." Sherlock touched his chin, thoughtfully.
Because the power to reproduce the "Sand World" itself comes from Melina, once she interferes with the overall operation, the reproduction will collapse? For example, if a child gives a push to a toy car, as long as she no longer interferes, the car will It will keep running forward until it encounters an obstacle and is stopped. And if you push it halfway to avoid hitting the obstacle, maybe it will
He flew out directly.
Therefore, if Melina and Chelina want to effectively complete a plan, they must use the exhaustive method and formulate a "plan to prevent accidents" after every accident in the plan, and do it again after the world is destroyed.
But what should we do if something goes wrong with our "plan to prevent accidents"?
In this case, a thing can serve an important purpose.
Your own "time stone".
Although this thing is just a decoration in most cases, and "prediction" and "unpredictability" are not very useful in many cases, but... reversing the time of a "grain of sand" seems to be just right?
"Can its power turn back time?" Sherlock pulled out the pendant with the "Time Stone" embedded in his clothes.
"No," Melina shook her head and nodded: "Okay."
"If this world doesn't work, how about the 'World of Sand'?"
"Um."
...If you are used to Melina's way of speaking, it is quite easy to understand. "Let's do a test first to see if it can work in your process of 'saving the world,'" Sherlock looked towards the desert outside the tower. : “Go back to every event that caused your plan to fail and revise it to see what happened in the end.
Will you save the world?"
"Um!"
The girl responded, turned around, jumped out of bed, walked to the edge of the tower with bare feet, and scanned the vast desert outside.
There is no doubt that in Sherlock's own view, there is only a desolate desert outside, but to Melina, it is the corpses of countless destroyed worlds.
And now she is about to pick one of them and try to "resurrect" it.
It seems that the ability of the "Black Lantern" is to resurrect the dead. It seems that her claim before, no, in the future, cannot be considered a lie.
"Okay, that's it." Melina didn't squat down to pick up the sand. Instead, she waved her hand and grabbed it in the air. Then she ran back and jumped onto the collapse with a thud: "Living in the 'Dark Sea' 'Ute'."
"I thought you would choose 'Bao'." Sherlock looked at the palm of her hand that was open to him. The grain of sand seemed to be nothing special: "I should still remember the details of the plan just now."
"Ah? Will the 'Supreme Mage' forget what he has memorized?" Melina tilted her head.
...At least 80% of the students must be eager for this ability.
"Sometimes," Sherlock put the question aside: "How did their world end?"
"they--"
Melina clenched her fists again and used a little force. The next moment, the surrounding light suddenly dimmed, and the empty "floor-to-ceiling windows" of the tower seemed to have turned into the deep-sea viewing portholes of some kind of submersible, which bloomed with a deep blue. Glimmer, slightly illuminating the almost dark outside
The vast seabed.
And at a high place outside the "porthole", there were several huge shadows of giant things that looked like octopuses and squids slowly passing by.
In this strange background, Melina's voice when reading the manuscript seemed to have some kind of deep reverberation: "[The pillars of the 'Dark Sea' world, the Ute species, they are satisfied with the vastness of the ocean and the abundance of resources. Rich, many different undersea kingdoms have been established. After thoroughly exploring the bottom of the sea, they formed loose alliances with each other. They no longer had the ambition to be enterprising and turned to entertainment and enjoyment. The development of science and technology completely stagnated. But when they discovered that the planet's resources were about to be exhausted and hurriedly developed the land, they found in despair that the resources on the land were yet to be developed.
The source is not enough to allow them to enter space and eventually become extinct.]" "..."
