"It's true," Mr. Jones said as he looked at the video in front of him and sighed deeply.
From the moment he got involved in politics, it seemed that he would have to participate in this mess from the beginning until the very end.
Even though what Mr. Jones wanted the most was for his family to live safely.
Unfortunately, he would have to think about other things now.
*sigh*
"Father, I don't want to break your fantasy, but it's impossible for Ruth alone to be the one who destroyed the passage…." Samuel glanced at Riya and seeing her nod, he continued, "There's someone else who's helping her."
"Who?" Mr. Jones asked almost immediately.
The others were also shocked by the words that Samuel conveyed today.
This is the first time they ever heard about something like this.
"Well, i can't tell but that one… is the one who sent us to the other world and also brought us back," Samuel replied slowly.
It would be better for them not to know about the Green Planet's Consciousness.
After all, if they were to know that the planet they resided in has consciousness… Samuel didn't know what they would do in the future.
The fewer people who knew about the Green Planet's Consciousness, the better it would be.
Riya was listening from the side and then asked, "Can I see the scene?"
Mr. Jones, who wanted to ask for more details, was forced to answer Riya's question first. He quickly replied, "Yes."
With that, Mr. Jones sent the video that they have taken on the scene when Ruth destroyed the passage.
The video was short since they only sent the crucial moment.
But it's enough.
Riya saw the space shattered along with Ruth's movement and her eyes narrowed slightly. Through the video, it was not very clear, but Riya was sure that the Green Planet's Consciousness should have intervened one way or another.
Most people wouldn't be able to think of it, but Riya had been learning the law of space.
She knew that the shattering of the space could only be done by the power of space and not the wind element that Ruth had been using.
'Why did the Green Planet's Consciousness allow it?'
Does the Green Planet's Consciousness want them to sacrifice themselves and forcefully close the passage?
Riya thought about it and frowned.
No, impossible.
If the Green Planet's Consciousness only wanted them to do that, then the Green Planet's Consciousness should have chosen 4 people who were full of self sacrifice for the greater good instead of choosing them all.
All the 12 returnees whom Riya had seen so far were complicated people with their own selfishness and so on.
None of them were people who would be wiling to sacrifice themselves for others.
Oh, Ruth is an exception.
Because the strength of the four returnees meant that almost all magic beasts, as long as they were not above rank 10, could still be killed by them.
But rank 10 alone was already difficult.
If the Green Planet's Consciousness allowed even more powerful magic beasts to come out of the passage, this meant that the Green Planet might not be able to last long.
The Green Planet is even smaller than Afirer Kingdom.
And Riya couldn't imagine what it would be if a rank 10 magic beast was let loose in this place.
Even though rank 10 was not the strongest magic beasts…
But it was already far above them all.
"Do you see something?" Samuel saw that Riya was deep in thought and couldn't help but interrupt.
They didn't have much time to discuss about this because the next rank 10 magic beast will come out of the passage soon. The time interval between the magic beasts differed one after another, but it's still quite similar one after another.
And the time is almost up right now.
"I only know that there's a powerful space ability interfering in the battle," Riya replied with a smile. "And there's no guarantee that it would also help us even if we try to destroy the passage in this way."
No, Riya believed that the Green Planet's Consciousness didn't want them to simply destroy the passage.
There should be something that she missed.
But what is it?
