Chapter 1420: Saving the World Depends on You!

"I... how much longer do I have to wash?"

When the god of pseudo-illusion and heart lake was burning with hot blood in his chest, preparing to risk his life to fight Li Ang for the future of the whole world, the female cleaner, who was soaked and soft, poked her head out of the river and shouted at Li Ang in the distance:

"No, I really can't soak anymore, and... hiccup... I can't drink anymore."

"Hold on a little longer."

Turning his head to glance at the middle-aged man whose whole head was held by the black dog and hadn't had any new movement for a long time, Li Ang, while using the mirror world to watch the flooding situation in Heat River City from a distance, shouted loudly:

"It's still a little bit short! The authority of the heart lake god is still spreading, and I haven't prepared here yet, you have to hold on for a while."

"But... I... I can't hold on... hiccup... this water is so hard to drink..."

"Come on, you can do it!"

Looking at the female cleaner whose back of her hands were wrinkled from soaking, Li Ang, who had sympathy in his eyes, couldn't help but sigh helplessly, and then tried his best to cheer her up:

"Think about your royal family in the North, think about your brother and father, think about the people of Heat River City! Now only you can save them!"

"But..."

"Melly, didn't you say that your ideal is to become someone like your mother, standing in front of the entire group to guard all of humanity? Now is the time for you to realize your ideal!"

"..."

Hearing Li Ang's encouragement, the female cleaner in the Heat River couldn't help but open her mouth, and her flushed little face was full of words.

Although I did say such things, and was prepared to sacrifice myself to guard my compatriots, the way I want to realize my ideal is to fight to the death with the outer gods, resolutely rush up and carry everything in a desperate situation, not to let the people of the whole city soak in my bath water.

Also, if I die on the battlefield of guarding humanity, then at least I die heroically, but how should this sacrifice of mine be counted?

From now on, on the memorial wall of the Aquarius Branch, everyone else's cause of death is written as sacrificing their precious lives to save xxx, but only my cause of death is that I was on a mission and went to soak in a hot spring, and died heroically because I soaked for too long?

This is too shameful!

It's just that after thinking wildly for a while, even though she was full of reluctance, the female cleaner finally lay back in the steaming river water and spat out a series of bubbles full of resentment.

No way, the threat brought by the heart lake god is too great, and only she, who has the 【Calm】 bloodline, can slightly confront his 【Heart Lake】, so she can only bite the bullet and continue...

Hmm, wait!

When she was soaking in the underground Heat River before, she didn't notice it, but just now when she briefly floated up and went

No, this really can't hold on anymore!

Hurriedly floating up from the river and splashing a few times to the "shore," the female cleaner, whose little face was flushed from the soaking, looked up at Li Ang, who had a puzzled expression, and said somewhat coyly:

"It's not that I don't want to soak anymore, but... but I have to come up for a while?"

Come up for a while?

Li Ang frowned upon hearing this. He just wanted to persuade her that the situation was truly urgent and it would be best to endure it a little longer, but he saw the coy expression on her face and her slender legs that were constantly clamping together under the water.

"..."

That's right, she had just drunk so much water, it was indeed time to discharge some.

Nodding understandingly, Li Ang was just about to avoid the area to give her space for a quick discharge when he suddenly sensed something. He stood up with a start and looked up at the Hot River City above.

Almost at the moment the female cleaner came out of the river, the countless agitated souls in Hot River City began to extend and climb onto each other, appearing to have an extremely strange "synchronization," as if they wanted to gather together entirely.

At the same time, Li Ang, who originally couldn't see the 【Heart Lake】, finally sensed the existence of the 【Heart Lake】 through the nearly one hundred million souls that were rapidly connecting.

Those scattered heart lakes, which were like small puddles, had already begun to transform from vague symbols into real objects as they gathered in one place. A heart lake of unimaginable size was rapidly taking shape beneath the nearly one hundred million souls in Hot River City.

And if the "stones" thrown by the God of Heart Lake fell into the small puddle-like heart lakes in everyone's hearts separately, even if the force was great and the stones were heavy, they could only splash up a few insignificant sprays.

But as nearly one hundred million heart lakes merged and gathered together, providing a more vast lake surface and more tolerant depth, the "stones" thrown by the God of Heart Lake already had the ability to stir up a tsunami that would destroy everything!

Damn it, why is today's sun setting so slowly?

Looking through the mirror refracted by the mirror world at the sun, which had clearly reached 7:30 PM but still hadn't completely sunk below the horizon, Li Ang's brow furrowed tighter and tighter. He then turned his head to look at the female cleaner who was preparing to go ashore. "Melly."

"Huh?"

Stared at by Li Ang's overly serious gaze, the female cleaner felt a chill in her heart, and some not-so-good premonitions surged up instantly.

And the development of things was indeed as she thought. After a moment of silence, Li Ang tentatively suggested:

"How about... you don't go ashore?"

"..."

"..."

(д)？！

"The situation above is a bit wrong..."

Facing the female cleaner's bewildered gaze, Li Ang coughed dryly and explained with a helpless look:

"I don't know what's going on with the sun today; the sunset time is almost an hour later than expected, and the progress of the God of Heart Lake is also faster than I expected. The situation in Hot River City can't be held back much longer.

I feel that if we rely solely on the 【Calming Bath Water】, there is a high possibility that we won't be able to suppress the God of Heart Lake's rapidly rising authority, which would allow him to possess the power of an Aquarius Director level first. So... we might need something with a higher concentration of 【Calming】."

"..."

So... does that mean you want me to solve it directly in the lake? And then rely on the 【Calming...】 to suppress the God of Heart Lake's authority?

Finally understanding Li Ang's meaning, the female cleaner shook her head violently, instantly shaking the braid behind her head like a small mallet of a rattle-drum.

"No, no, no! This is absolutely impossible! I... I am at least..."

"You are a cleaner of the Aquarius Branch, the Princess of the Northern Kingdom, and the future Director of the Cleanup Bureau!"

Interrupting the female cleaner, Li Ang squatted down and stared into her eyes, persuading her with a strange expression:

"Melly, now is the time for you to prove your conviction! The God of Heart Lake is about to succeed, and only you have the ability to turn the tide!"

That's true... but you can't turn the tide by discharging a "tide"! This is too...

"We don't have time to hesitate anymore!"

Looking up and feeling the waves rolling in the heart lake above, Li Ang took a deep breath and urged repeatedly:

"I know this is really a bit difficult for you, but you might as well think about the current situation. Once the God of Heart Lake succeeds, the entire Northern Territory could be soaked into a marshland!"

"But..."

"There is no time for 'buts'! The residents of Hot River City need you (and your...), the citizens of the Northern Kingdom need you (and your...), and even all of humanity needs you (and your...)!"

Reaching out to press on the female cleaner's soaked shoulders, and using a little force to press her back into the water, Li Ang turned his head back and said loudly with a strained expression:

"Melly! Hurry up and move... move your legs... hurry up and act!"
