Now, the once living "matter" has completely turned into a solidified metal.

To harmlessly dispose of "abnormal objects" that have been registered for containment requires a very complicated process, but this is just an ordinary job for Ted Leal, the keeper of the truth. He quickly They called the person in charge of the underground archives and made appropriate arrangements.

Although he was filled with emotion and was deeply touched by the past of that "living metal", as the protector of the city-state, he must handle this matter strictly in accordance with safety rules - even if it was really a person who had tried The brave man who went to save the world has become an "extraordinary invader" that is very likely to spread corruption and pollution in this deep sea era. What will greet this mass of matter will be the high temperature of the steam core reactor and a Set up strict purification, segmentation, crushing and sealing procedures.

But think about it from another angle. In fact, this may not be a kind of burial. After all, ordinary people in this world also come here. The "corpse" should always be "handled" properly, and the dead must always make way for the living.

As for the long sword, as the only remaining material from "that world" in the end, it miraculously restored to the state when it was first born. It is obviously a highly valuable research sample.

Through it, scholars can build more understanding of that world - although everything has passed, this understanding and memory are meaningful after all.

"It's useless for me to keep it," Duncan readily agreed to Ted Leal's request. He handed the sword to him with emotion in his tone, "Let the smart people uncover more secrets behind it. Well, if you find anything, I hope you can share it with me."

"Of course." Ted Leal took the sword from Duncan's hand with great solemnity. Then he hesitated for a moment and continued, "Regarding what happened today and the information I have obtained, I will summon scholars from the Academy of Truth. We will discuss it, and if we encounter new problems, we may still need your... help."

"No problem," Duncan naturally had no objection. He nodded and pointed at Lucretia beside him, "You can contact me through Lucy - if I think of something or discover something new, She will also tell you."

There are still many things that need to be explained and communicated. When the "horizon limit" of the Great Annihilation suddenly reveals a crack in front of mortals, what will follow is bound to be a huge impact on the academic world, and the Church of the Four Gods will also Subsequently, they paid attention to and discussed this matter, and whether they were willing to accept it or not, the Lost Home and the owner of the Lost Home were already an unavoidable part of this matter.

As for Duncan, he didn't care about it, and from his perspective, there were actually some very critical and special problems in the information he just obtained that Lucretia and Ted Leal didn't notice. Even temporarily incomprehensible.

For example, the position of the "deep red" and its behavior that goes against common sense.

If the information he saw in the memory fragments is true, and if the "Templar"'s explanation of the "Warrior" is correct, then the location of the "red light" that caused the destruction of the world should be in the universe. In space - it may be a huge astronomical phenomenon across the Milky Way, a band of light appearing in the background of the starry sky.

And there is a problem: the planet rotates. At least judging from the scenes seen in the memory fragments, the hometown of the "Warrior" also has normal sunrises and sunsets, and the stars rotate.

Therefore, the "red light belt" located in the universe should theoretically move, rise and fall in the sky along with other stars.

But why is that "deep red" always located at a specific location in the sky?

The "Warrior" and his traveling companions have been looking for the place where the crimson light fell, because in their eyes, the red light was always fixed at a specific position in the sky, which also led to them not realizing that the light did not actually fall. On the ground, but against a backdrop of stars.

The "Templar Knight" also mentioned this question at the end - in a sense, this is also the last and largest "astronomical discovery" during the existence of their civilization.

Duncan's guess is that the "light" is no longer just a certain person.

An entity visible to the naked eye, "deep red" is just its appearance, and its essence... may have involved the "destruction" and "distortion" of the basic order of the universe, or even the "rules" level.

That may be a tear at the dimensional level, or a deeper and more complex phenomenon.

However, Ted Leal and Lucretia are not aware of this problem yet, and they may not be able to understand it in the short term - they don't even understand the concept of a planet.

This can only be done slowly. Even if Duncan is willing to explain now, it will still take a long, long time to explain.

The second question is what exactly should the concept of "world" in the "world aggregation theory" be?

Is each "world" a planet in the same universe, or is it a different "universe" from a broader perspective?

Duncan raised his head and glanced at Ted Leal, who was still thinking, and the long sword in his hand. .

The two evidences "Moon" and "Long Sword" may be able to support most of the descriptions in the world aggregation theory, but they are not enough to determine the "levels" of the "world fragments" that make up the "Infinite Sea". In a broad sense, every planet can be called a world, and every universe...can also be called a world.

To Duncan, the distinction is important.

But this is also a problem that the "Keeper of Truth" and "Sea Witch" cannot currently understand and detect - Duncan can't even think of how to explain these concepts to them in a short time.

In addition, the secret of the "crimson light" itself is of course more worthy of attention - this is not the first time that Duncan has "seen" that ominous light.

The red light appeared in the vision of the crash of New Hope and in the oil painting in Alice's mansion.

What is that thing?

Lucretia noticed Duncan's long silence and the constant changes in his expression as he thought.

She was a little worried: "Father, is there anything else wrong?"

"...I have a lot of questions and I need to go back and sort them out." Duncan woke up from his meditation for a while. He shook his head gently, "Go back first. When I think about it, I will discuss it with you." of."

Lucretia still looked a little worried, but she realized from Duncan's attitude that this might be another problem that was "difficult to explain to others."

This was the first tacit understanding she had re-established with her father in these short few days of getting along.

So she just nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

"We should go," Duncan breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at Nina and Shirley, who still looked a little uneasy, and then his eyes fell on Ted Leal, "Send us away."

The Keeper nodded, summoned the "Gate" from the book again, and then walked through the gate with Duncan and others, returning to the academy near the Crown Block.

"I will make some arrangements when I go back." Before saying goodbye, Ted Leal glanced at Nina and Shirley who were standing next to Duncan. "No one will disturb you and your followers while you are in the city. But correspondingly..."

"Don't worry, there won't be any trouble," Duncan said proactively without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, with a friendly smile on his face, "We are all law-abiding people who value the security of the city."

The "Keeper of the Truth" in front of him was obviously stunned for a moment. Even Lucretia next to her was stunned for a moment. Apparently neither of them believed it.

But soon, Ted Leal controlled the change of expression on his face, and he smiled stiffly and politely: "That... is best."

Then he paused and added very sincerely: "Let's get together again when we have time. Although you may not remember me, I still look forward to chatting with you about those... incredible things." Knowledge'."

Duncan laughed: "Many people dare not talk to me about 'knowledge'. There are not many people as brave as you. Well, then I'll look forward to it."

Lucretia looked at her father, and then at the man opposite her.

The person who keeps secrets."

Miss Witch suddenly felt a little emotional in her heart.

It seems that teaching and educating people is indeed a very difficult thing. This secret keeper would rather talk about subspace with his father than face the graduating class...

After saying a simple goodbye, Duncan took Nina and Shirley and left the academy facility with Lucretia.

They returned to the "Witch Mansion" at 99 Crown Street.

"You can make your own arrangements. I'll go upstairs to rest first - there's nothing special to do, so don't disturb me."

Duncan gave such simple instructions, then ruffled Nina and Shirley's hair, and stepped up the stairs to the second floor.

After a while, Shirley, who was in a daze, turned her head and whispered to Nina: "The captain is not in a good mood..."

"I don't think I can describe my mood..." Nina hesitated for a moment, and also whispered her opinion, "Uncle Duncan has a lot on his mind - but in fact, his state today is better than the past few days. It’s much better, not so gloomy, but it seems like there’s a lot to think about.”

Shirley thought hard for a moment, then carefully looked up at Lucretia who was thinking about something next to her. She leaned next to Nina and whispered, "I don't seem to understand what the captain said."

"Actually, I don't understand it very well," Nina said with a bit of embarrassment in her tone, "That may be something that only people at the academic level can understand..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lucretia on the side suddenly broke the silence: "Don't mind, even great scholars can't fully understand them."

Nina and Shirley were startled at the same time, and they looked at the witch lady in a daze.

Lucretia shook her head at them, her expression serious and serious.

"They are all 'knowledge' from the subspace, but they have been processed by my father and are less harmful - but it is still not something that ordinary people can easily understand."
