Alice's Potato Pancakes

The core of the second glowing geometric object to fall into the Boundless Sea was still a "Lost Star," but unlike the first fragment, this "Lost Star" was a compressed gaseous planet.

According to the scholars' preliminary measurements, the gaseous planet serving as its core still had a diameter of ten meters, exactly the same as the "Moon" inside the first fallen luminous object.

Yet Duncan was more concerned about something else: he did not recognize this planet.

At the very least, he was certain it was not a gas giant like Saturn or Jupiter, which had once belonged to the Solar System—the silver, gray, and blue metallic hues it displayed, along with several highly distinctive storm vortices on its surface, were all utterly unfamiliar to him.

Duncan stood beside the compressed gas giant, carefully observing the cloud bands and vortex formations on its surface as thoughts surged through his mind.

The core of the first glowing geometric object had been the "Moon" of his homeland, so when this second fallen object appeared, he had instinctively assumed he would see another familiar celestial body from the Solar System. But now, it seemed... the "materials" used for the Rune Ring Belt around the Sun were not limited to the Solar System of his homeland. These "Lost Stars" that formed the ring belt had all come from far more distant deep space, perhaps even from different universes.

Celestial bodies from different worlds had been compressed and twisted into halos around the Sun to sustain the Observer Effect Stable Anchor. The "Sun" at its center was, in essence, an eyeball sealed within a crystalline sphere... The eyeball symbolized the observer's eye... This apparatus ensured that the incompatible remnants of worlds after the Great Annihilation could collapse into the same reality...

So this was
