Chapter 1 The Problem with Dou Dou Seems Bigger Than Mine

Vivian immediately felt that Dou Dou's problem was even bigger than her own when she heard that the little fellow had crashed the Source Blood—because she had known from the beginning that she was not quite normal, and even when she knew that she was connected to the Creation Goddess, she was somewhat mentally prepared. But Dou Dou seemed to be an ordinary little mermaid from the very beginning; the only problems with her were her diet and her size were a bit different from the mermaids in the legends. This inconspicuous little fellow was suddenly related to the Source Blood, and Vivian immediately became a little nervous.

Hao Ren briefly described what Dou Dou had done in the blood pool of Tanagus. After listening to the little fellow's amazing feat, not only Vivian but also the Nangong siblings were dumbfounded. A group of people surrounded Dou Dou, as if appreciating a rare animal, and chimed in: "Could it be that she was also created by the goddess?" "Don't be silly, she obviously came from another universe." "Or is the Creation Goddess actually a fish? Then the Source Blood was shocked when it saw Dou Dou?" "Then why didn't it work when May turned into a fish?" "May didn't jump in to try it; why don't you try it next time?" "Get lost, you're just giving bad ideas."

Dou Dou was not afraid of being surrounded by everyone. On the contrary, the little fellow was very happy. She tried to prop herself up from Hao Ren's arms, her tail flapping restlessly: "I'm awesome! I'm awesome... Daddy, hold on tight, I'm about to slip!"

"You know you're slippery, so don't do such difficult movements all the time," Hao Ren held the little mermaid steady and let the data terminal open the door to the "God Realm," "I'll go over there now, if I'm late, you don't have to wait for me for dinner."

"Wait a minute, I'll go too," Vivian said as she took off her apron, "I want to consult her again about my own affairs."

As soon as Lily saw Vivian was about to leave, she jumped up almost reflexively: "Ah, wait! Who's going to cook when you're gone? I'm waiting for you to stew ribs when I get home!"

Vivian smiled faintly and stepped forward to gently press Lily's head: "You want to eat the ribs I stew, right..."

Lily was stunned by the other party's unusual attitude and wanted to nod subconsciously, but Vivian exerted strength in her hand and slapped her head on the back of the sofa: "Then use your brain next time you speak! You're the liquid!"

After saying this, she didn't wait for Lily to react and dragged Hao Ren's arm towards the space gate: "Let's go, let's go!"

Lily raised her head from the back of the sofa in a daze, and found that Hao Ren and Vivian were gone. She shook her ears: "Is she crazy?"

At this time, Hao Ren and Vivian could no longer hear Lily's voice. They passed through the gate opened by the data terminal and came to a flower-filled lakeside shrouded in aurora, clouds, and stars.

Hao Ren was stunned as soon as he came out of the gate. He looked at the strange scene in front of him in confusion, and poked the data terminal: "Did you open the wrong door?"

"It should be right..." the data terminal's voice was also a little uncertain, "This unit shouldn't have this kind of malfunction."

What Hao Ren and Vivian saw was an unfamiliar scene, not Raven 12345's gorgeous house at all. They were standing on the shore of a mysterious lake under a night sky. The sky was covered with a thin veil of beautiful aurora that kept floating, and the stars shone brightly between the aurora. The quiet water surface stretched out in front of them, and the starry sky reflected in the water seemed to be different from the sky. On the shore of the lake, peculiar flowers and plants emitting a faint light covered the ground and spread along the slightly undulating terrain to the end of the line of sight. Hao Ren looked in the direction away from the lake shore and saw some strangely shaped stone pillars standing hundreds of meters away. Some buildings that seemed to be from Greek mythology stood quietly under this quiet night sky, surrounded by a sacred and peaceful atmosphere.

It had to be said that the scene here had more of the atmosphere that the "God Realm" should have compared to Raven 12345's original mansion, at least the atmosphere that Hao Ren imagined the God Realm should have, but he felt more curious: why did the data terminal throw him in such a place as soon as it opened the door?

While he and Vivian were puzzled, a burst of crashing sounds suddenly came from the lake water behind them. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the starlight in the sky seemed to fall into the lake water. A light blue humanoid creature composed of starlight slowly emerged from the reflection in the water. Hao Ren breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this humanoid glowing creature: this was the arcane servant beside Raven 12345, and he finally saw a familiar face.

"Big Blue!" Hao Ren waved hello to the arcane servant. The latter came to him and Vivian in an instant, and pointed to the place like the Greek stone pillars. A melodious sound came from his body: "My master is waiting for you there."

Hao Ren and Vivian came to the stone pillar building under the guidance of the arcane servant, and sure enough, they saw Raven 12345 sitting on a collapsed pillar waiting for the two of them. The goddess sister also took the initiative to say hello: "Yo! Hao Ren, you ran around again?"

"Speaking of your place..." The first thing Hao Ren did was ask what happened to the God Realm, "Why did it become like this?"

As he spoke, he looked around. After the amazing feeling that the mysterious lakeside brought to people faded away, only the primitive and desolate atmosphere was left. He didn't wait for Raven 12345 to speak and guessed: "Could it be that after you blew up the house several times, you finally played a big one and blew up the entire God Realm?"

Raven 12345 slapped a small lightning bolt on Hao Ren's face: "What nonsense are you talking about! I just did an experiment..."

Hao Ren wiped his face, still stunned: "That is to say, you really blew up the God Realm?"

"Is my experiment only about explosions!" Raven 12345 stared and pointed around, "This is the memory fragment I extracted from the depths of those split Vivian's consciousness. I just covered this space with them."

"The memories of those split bodies?!" Hao Ren didn't expect the goddess sister to actually be doing serious things. He was immediately taken aback, and the look in his eyes was completely different when he looked at the surrounding scenery again, "You found a way to extract those memories?"

Vivian also looked around with surprised eyes, and then cast a hot gaze on Raven 12345, but the latter shook her head regretfully: "Not yet, it's not that easy. What you see is my achievement so far: just extracting some fixed scenery and reproducing it. These scenes may restore where those split bodies have been, and occasionally reveal who they have met, but other than that... Anyway, it's not of much value at present."

As Raven 12345 spoke, she performed some kind of control over this space, so Hao Ren saw a star in the sky suddenly become unusually bright, and then this starlight fell on a stone pillar in the distance. A woman in a white long gauze skirt walked out of the starlight. The woman had bright golden hair and a bright face like a morning star. She glanced here and then quickly disappeared into the air.

The whole scene was like a clip taken from a video, inexplicable and confusing.

"That one just now seems to be Aurora," Vivian vaguely recognized the woman's face, "I remember she's from Zeus's family."

"Then it seems that your split body has also seen her, or you split shortly after seeing Aurora, so the split body inherited these short-term memories," Raven 12345 nodded, "Anyway, as you can see, I started to extract some fragments from those split bodies, but they are very unstable, and they don't have much reason in themselves, so the extracted memories are basically useless. Before this, let's talk about what's the matter with you? You don't seem like the type to come here for no reason."

Hao Ren hurriedly said oh, and carefully held Dou Dou out like a treasure: "The first thing is about Dou Dou. She seems to have some kind of connection with the Source Blood. A few days ago, I took her..."

He told the goddess sister about what happened in the blood pool of Tanagus in detail. The latter listened very carefully, but did not show any doubts or surprises from beginning to end. After Hao Ren finished speaking, Raven 12345 reached out and took Dou Dou over. She casually added a levitation spell to the little fellow, allowing the fish baby to sway in the air, so the little mermaid immediately had a great time playing.

"Not surprising," Raven 12345 smiled, "I just didn't expect it to be expressed in this form."

She really knew something.

Hao Ren did not hide his doubts and eagerness: "What is Dou Dou..."

"You know her origin, right?" Raven 12345 poked the little mermaid gently, and the latter immediately giggled and somersaulted in the air, "She is the last descendant of life in a certain world, the last spark of all living beings in the universe. Do you know what this means?"

Hao Ren shook his head.

"It means she is all living beings in the universe," Raven 12345 stabilized Dou Dou and hugged her gently, "She is all the life forms in the entire world, all the life information left after a universe perished. Of course, the Source Blood will be in awe of her, just like being in awe of the Creation Goddess, because in a sense, as the beginning of life, the Creation Goddess and as the end of life, Dou Dou... there is really no difference."
