"It's just a one-time thing."
Mamehe nodded, then asked Jacob with concern, "Are you okay, Mr. Jacob? Do you want to rest for a while? I didn't know that humans would feel uncomfortable taking shortcuts."
"It's okay, I just couldn't get used to it for a while. I'm much better now." Jacob took a deep breath, and there was still a faint fishy smell in his mouth.
He remembered the rumors about Melusin in Fontaine, so he asked curiously:
“Mamehe, can you tell me how you felt in the bubble?”
"My feelings..." Mamehe thought for a while, then replied: "Very warm and reassuring!"
"Warmth and security? I think there is a place that is definitely suitable for you, Meilushin, to live in."
When Yu Jin heard this, he immediately gave Mamehe a thumbs up. It turned out that Melusin, like Gollum, liked to live in a swamp full of blood!
"Sorry, I don't think anyone will leave Haimo Village." Mamehe shook her head without thinking.
Except for those who live outside due to work needs, almost all the Meilushin are in Haimo Village.
Not only is there no one to disturb us here, but more importantly, in Haimo Village, the Meilushins always have an inexplicable warmth lingering in their hearts.
"Just talking, it's your turn to get busy!" Yu Jin didn't care. He patted Jacob's shoulder and led him to the books on the music table.
"Wait... this magic circle..." Jacob saw the dim magic circle under the music table and immediately leaned over to examine it carefully.
"Hehe, let me tell you, he will definitely understand it!" Yu Jin patted his chest. As expected, the Baptist of Deep Sin was good at this kind of thing.
"I hope so." Shannotila nodded, half excitedly and half worriedly.
Obviously, her worries were unnecessary. After fiddling with the books on the ground for a while, Jacob quickly stood up and came to the side of the books.
His eyes quickly scanned the contents of the pages, and those obscure runes were as simple as nursery rhymes to him.
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"
Jacob began to turn the pages of the book, and his speed was quite fast, which made Shannotila's worries disappear.
This strange guy seemed to really understand what was written in the book.
The rustling sound of pages turning continued for a long time before it stopped. Everyone looked up and saw that only the last page was left in the book on the music table.
Ember remembered that there were many missing parts in this book, but for Jacob, it seemed that this was not a problem at all.
"Mr. Jacob, do you know what this book is about?" Shannotila's eyes lit up, and the two kelp-like horns on her head swayed slightly with excitement.
"This book... is the Book of Revelation." Jacob seemed to have remembered something, his tone full of emotion.
"The Book of Revelation? It doesn't sound like a good thing to me." Yu Jin walked over with his arms folded and flipped through the pages of the book twice. There was no change and he still couldn't understand it.
"For ordinary people who are ignorant, this is indeed not a good thing. This book tells us that the future has already been determined."
Jacob nodded in agreement. He glanced at Mamehe and Shanotila who were curious behind him and asked:
"I have never seen the prophesied world with my own eyes. I just want to go in. Would you like to join me?"
"Of course!"
"It's a big adventure!"
Mamehe and Shanotila almost jumped up with excitement.
"What about you?"
"I think I've been there once, but it's okay to go again."
Jacob's eyebrows twitched. Obviously, he had not expected that Ember had actually been to the world predicted by the Book of Revelation.
"Okay, take a deep breath. Also... don't let yourself get scared and cry!"
The last words were spoken to Mamehe and Shannotila. Considering Meluseen's pure and innocent nature, Jacob felt that they might not be able to bear it after seeing the collapsed world.
But even so, you still have to watch it. He is working hard to get rid of the prophecy, and others should do the same.
Let the Meluseens see the worst future so that they can be prepared when the prophecy comes.
"Inside!"
Jacob roared, and the magic circle under everyone's feet burst out with a powerful light that had never been seen before.
A familiar scene appeared before Yu Jin's eyes. The rock wall, the book, the deep pool... all of them disappeared. Instead, there was a world without sky or earth, with countless broken walls and ruins floating in the air.
The desolate world is not without any life. Just as Ember and the voice said before, even mint and sweet flowers cannot grow here, but there are countless beast mirror hounds.
Beasts from other worlds invaded through the ubiquitous space cracks, but I don't know why they came here. There is nothing here, come to eat stones?
"Be careful, in the future world, only these things will be able to survive." Jacob had already turned back into the four-armed form of the Baptist of Deep Sin. He stretched out his hands, trying to protect the people behind him.
Unfortunately, he was too tall and couldn't stop the excited Mamehe and Shannotila.
"Wow! What a cute puppy!"
"If the future is like this, I suddenly want to sleep until this time!"
The two Melusins cheered with great excitement on the broken stone, successfully burning Jacob's brain.
"What?"
Chapter 769 The World Seen by Mei Luxin

"Jacob first..."
After rubbing the dog's head vigorously for a while, Mamehe and Shanotila, whose excitement had faded, remembered Jacob's changes.
The gentle and refined art connoisseur had now transformed into a ferocious four-armed monster, and he was even in autism.
"Hey! Someone is calling you!" Ember kicked Jacob, waking him up from his deep self-doubt.
"call……"
"Mamehe and Shannotira, I'm sorry for lying to you before, this is what I really look like."
After taking a deep breath, Jacob nodded apologetically to the two Melusins.
"It doesn't matter. We should thank Mr. Jacob. Otherwise, we wouldn't have come to such a beautiful place!"
Mamehe jumped up excitedly on the spot. She must draw such a beautiful place when she returns!
"Beautiful?" Jacob uttered the word with difficulty. The space around him was shattered, the sky above him was dark, and the abyss under his feet was bottomless... How could such a place be called beautiful?
"Yes, it looks like a big garden!" Mamehe looked around carefully and added:
"Golden clouds, lush trees, and cute puppies! It turns out that the world will become a garden in the future!"
Mamehe now thinks those fairy tales are too conservative, but she is also full of confidence in the future.
She must see such a beautiful future with her own eyes!
"So our perspectives are so different?" Yu Jin blinked. He had seen differences between races before, but this was the first time he had seen such a huge difference like that of Meilushin.
"Perspective... I see. Everyone says that what we, Melusin, see is very different from what humans see. What is the world like in the eyes of Jacob and Ember? Can you tell me about it?"
Shannotila let go of the "puppy" that was rubbed until it whimpered in her eyes and asked curiously.
"Um... Generally speaking, it's like this..."
Yu Jin and Jacob told Mamehe and Shannotila what they had seen.
As they talked, the two little ones stopped wagging their tails and jumping their legs. When they talked about “even the sweet flowers and mints were not visible”, Mamehe and Shanotila’s faces even turned pale.
"The future...how could it be like this!"
For the first time, Yu Jin saw that the "antlers" on Mamehe's head had wilted, like a bracken without water, drooping limply on her forehead.
"It seems that the future belongs to you, Meluseen's world." Jacob couldn't help but joked when he saw the two Meluseen looking frightened.
"The world shouldn't belong to anyone, right? Have you ever considered the world's feelings when you want to belong?"
Yu Jin joined in the complaint.
“That’s why I want to stop this from happening.”
"That's right, this kind of future must never happen! If we only have the puppy, we will still be lonely!"
When Mamehe heard Jacob's heroic words, she immediately echoed them and waved her arms.
Although the future world looked beautiful to her, when Mamehe thought that there were only Melusin and the "puppy" in it, she suddenly felt that it was a nightmare.
A "nightmare" that looks beautiful on the outside!
“Pa pa pa!” Yu Jin clapped his hands, then he spread his hands and said:
"Very good momentum, so have you decided what to eat tonight?"
“Enjoy a seafood feast!”
"Eat...eat your head!"
Jacob was almost dragged into the ditch by the embers. He was so angry that he waved his four arms quickly, but he couldn't hit the embers' head - all his attacks were blocked by the embers.
"This is just an illusion, not reality, don't worry!" Yu Jin jumped back to distance himself from Jacob and waved at him carelessly.
Jacob stopped playing around when he saw this. He looked up at the sky and then shook his head dejectedly.
"Illusion? I hope this is what my sweet dream tonight will be."
"Huh... This is the result derived using the World Formula, and it was verified by that person himself, so it can't be wrong."
After taking a deep breath, Jacob extinguished the unrealistic delusion in his heart.
But at the same time, an indescribable feeling of frustration also came to his mind. The world's outcome remained unchanged. Is Rene's plan really feasible?
He didn't know whether he should have these thoughts. The sword of Damocles hanging over his head was about to fall, but the things he needed to do did not decrease at all.
"Boom!"
Just as Jacob was daydreaming, the huge illusion began to collapse. From the distant horizon, everything turned into nothingness.
"It seems we have stayed here too long, let's go out!" Jacob finally woke up from his depression.
This also made Yu Jin put away the huge stick in his hand - he was just about to hit Jacob.
"I always feel a chill on my back."
After muttering, Jacob stopped dithering. He stretched out his four arms, and the circular magic circle behind him decomposed, eventually becoming exactly the same as the magic circle under the book outside.
