Are you afraid of me?

The tumor-like eye suddenly spoke, its entire body of eyes darting around, until finally all the eyes facing Lin Yu converged in the same direction.

For some reason, the sound from the tumor's eye was somewhat terrifying at that moment.

Lin Yu: "..."

Brother, don't you know what you look like? If an ordinary cultivator in a fantasy world saw you like this, their spiritual sea might have been shattered already, okay?

But since the tumor looked very concerned, Lin Yu couldn't remain silent. After hesitating for a moment, he had to come up with an excuse.

"My current state is characterized by an instinctive, uncontrollable fear of certain things."

Slurp, slurp...

The sound of the eyeballs moving was heard. After a while, some of the eyeballs in the tumor's eyeballs narrowed slightly, but most of the eyeballs stopped moving.

"No wonder. Before your divine creation, I clearly saw fear."

"That was merely to demonstrate our combined strength."

"But please don't stop looking at me."

As he spoke of the tumor-like eye, a hint of pity crept into his voice.

Lin Yu then realized that the sudden sense of oppression he had felt earlier was not because the tumor's eyes had discovered anything; it was simply the tumor repeating its old trick.

The so-called "old trick" is essentially no different from stealing food from the public vault before; it's just creating trouble out of nothing.

Or perhaps it's just being cute?

But when Lin Yu thought of the tumor-like eyes, he felt it was an insult to the word "cute."

Seeing that Lin Yu still had his eyes closed, the tumor-like creature said guiltily, "It was my fault. I didn't expect your clone to be so fragile. It was just a little prank, but it triggered the fear in your blood."

Lin Yu: "..."

I'm sorry, I still don't want to open my eyes.

The tumor-like eye waited a while, and seeing that Lin Yu still didn't speak, it couldn't resist speaking up again, "I have something for you, take it."

This phrase can also be translated as "reach out".

Unfortunately, based on Lin Yu's experience observing other divine entities, not every divine entity has a "hand," which is why the tumor-like eye uses such a strange term.

Left with no other choice, Lin Yu stretched out his arm.

"Pfft..."

Unexpectedly, the tumor's eye completely landed on Lin Yu's arm. The sticky tumor, covered in moist mucus, resembled the mouth of some kind of creature.

Lin Yu frowned; this feeling was not pleasant.

The tumor-like eye rolled around on Lin Yu's arm like flowing water, and then a strange object that was both soft and hard appeared in Lin Yu's hand.

"You, this clone, don't have my contact information."

"This is my contact information. Come find me when you have time. Sorry for the prank earlier. I look forward to hearing from you." The tumor-eyed man said somewhat embarrassedly.

Lin Yu looked at the thing in his hand. How should he describe it?

It resembles part of an octopus's tentacles, with a tentacle-like texture, but without suckers. It secretes a translucent mucus, yet it is as thick as an adult's arm.

When it landed in Lin Yu's hand, the octopus tentacles were still wriggling.

Combined with what the tumor-eyed man had just said, Lin Yu felt it was even more absurd.

His worldview was practically shattered by the tumor-like eye.

If she heard correctly, this tumor-like eye was telling her to use it to contact him, right?

Lin Yu had initially thought it might be something like a telephone, but this thing was clearly alive!

And it was still wriggling.

Even if Lin Yu wanted to contact him, how could he do so?

But looking at the pitiful look on the tumor's eyes, although Lin Yu still felt like vomiting, he also found a little guilt after being softened by the tumor's eyes' kindness.

Lin Yu tried hard to keep his expression from twitching so violently, and almost gritted his teeth as he spoke, "Thank you, tumor eye."

Without realizing it, I blurted out the name I was thinking of.

However, Lin Yu had no way to memorize it, since he didn't know any other names for this fleshy eye tumor.

Upon hearing the name "tumor eye," the person with the sarcoma eye looked puzzled and couldn't help but repeat, "Tumor eye?"

"Hmm. It's just a nickname, a unique way for my new clone to make friends," Lin Yu said without changing his expression, as if it were the truth.

The tumor-like creature, however, seemed quite pleased, exclaiming, "Wow, a nickname! Such an affectionate way of addressing someone!"

"I won't add any more fear to your new clone. I'm renting it. Goodbye!"

"United Gods, we look forward to your contact."

After saying this, the tumor-like eye writhed violently again, then its size shrank until it disappeared completely.

At this moment, the tumor-like eye finally showed some kindness.

Lin Yu sat on his throne for half a minute, frozen in place. Only when he saw that the entire temple was completely empty did he finally deflate, slump down, and lie back on the throne, panting heavily.

These things are finally over.

Today's events were so sudden and inexplicable.

Lin Yu's mind went blank for a moment. He seemed to finally understand why the Hongmeng System had tricked him into coming to this kind of place. Perhaps it was because no one wanted to come to such a godforsaken place.

However, Lin Yu did not regret his decision.

After all, he had found his previous life extremely boring.

It was only after arriving at the main temple that Lin Yu realized what it meant to have mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people.

Lin Yu sat alone atop the throne of the Supreme God, surrounded by what seemed like a vast and boundless starry sky.

At this moment, Lin Yu was like the supreme ruler of the entire fantasy universe.

Lin Yu paused for a moment, then couldn't help but sigh, "This damn meeting is finally over."

it's over.

Yes, it's over.

Wait, is it over?

Lin Yu sprang up from the throne of the Supreme God. He suddenly realized a problem: all the affairs of the Supreme God had left, leaving him all alone. But what was he going to do? How could he get back?

And is his ascension to a higher level of world temporary?

Or is it that the fantasy world doesn't actually have higher-level worlds, but rather higher-level forces?

"System, system? Hongmeng System?"

Lin Yu called out twice in his mental sea, but still received no system notification.

Wait, shouldn't some notification box be popping up at this point, telling Lin Yu to go back immediately?

Am I really being abandoned here?

Lin Yu suddenly felt a sense of panic, a feeling he had rarely experienced since arriving in the fantasy world.
