Chapter 2080: A Thousand-Layer Cake World
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mag, who was sitting on the griffin’s back, said to himself, “System, can you get me an underground world detector? The kind that can go right through to the core of the earth. I am highly suspecting that these fellows are hiding underground, and might have even built a whole new world down there.”
“Ljust attached a tracking device to her spaceship,” the System replied.
“Isn’t your low-tier civilization tracking device going to increase my suspicion?” Mag pressed his lips together.
“It’s a high-tier tracking device that I bought from the other systems at a high price. It is the latest technology from planet M78. It was removed from Ultraman, and has only been used for 200 years,” the System emphasized.
“Ultraman’s planet is that impressive?” Mag was still suspicious.
“These are the latest details on the location of the spaceship.” A 3D map appeared in Mag’s mind.
“Where is it?”
‘Mag looked at the empty map.
The System fell silent for a while, and said, “This is a very normal technical difficulty. It happens even in advanced civilizations. As a fake engineer, you should be able to understand this.”
“You probably bought a fake second-hand item because you wanted to get it cheap!” Mag rolled his eyes.
Mag was about to exit from the map when the pin started to blink, and a faint red dot appeared. However, it vanished very quickly. Even so, a location was left behind.
“The spaceship is 100 km north of Rodu at an altitude of 10,000 m,” the System said excitedly.
“What kind of tracking device is this if it can’t give a real-time location?” Although Mag also had a flying restaurant, this was a legitimate spaceship they were tracking, and he did not think that he could catch up.
After the conversation about tracking had ended, Mag was still thinking about the underground. He thought for a while. Then, with a sudden epiphany, he said, “System, do you think it’s possible for this world to be 3D, like a thousand-layer cake? We think we’re in the first layer, but we’re actually at the
second layer. There’s a layer underground and a layer in the sky.
“It should be impossible that the Elder Things, which are an advanced civilization, would put themselves in the dark underground to suffer. This means that the underground world should probably be completely different from what we think it to be.
“On top of that, there is an upper limit to the sky of the Norland Continent. Would that be the bottom of the world up there?
“If the Elder Things and the servant race of the Great Old Ones are in the underground world, what is living in the sky?”
Mag was getting a little excited. He felt that he seemed to have touched the essence of this world, just like how Ferdinand Magellan proved that the world was round.
The System fell silent for a very long time.
“There might be this possibility…”
“The underground world managed by the Elder Things seems to be very orderly. Meanwhile, on the Norland Continent, the various races are allowed to go to war freely. This is some bewitching going on. In that case, where are the so-called gods of the various races? In the sky? Or underground?” Mag
continued to ponder.
“Host, I have to remind you that your main mission is only to become the God of Cookery of this world… Unraveling the mysteries of the world is not one of them.”
“As a System, you also need to have some pursuits. As a God of Cookery, isn’t it also very impressive if I can do some things of the God of War?” Mag said.
“No. You would only be labeled as not attending to your proper job and being inefficient.”
“Do you want to be laughed at by others for being just a cooking system for the rest of your life, and be kicked out of group chats as and when they please? Having a powerful host would allow your name to be inked in the history of Systems and be remembered forever!” Mag said agitatedly.
“That sounds… like it is the case.” The System wavered.
“Do well and get some black technology from the other systems, or you can get some immortal pills that can make you an immortal the moment you eat it. When we are done with the Great Old Ones, what are bicycles? The world is ours!” Mag encouraged.
“Alright! I’ll go right now!” the System said excitedly.
Mag raised his brow and smiled widely.
When he returned to Rodu, Mag saw Irina zooming around Romo Street with the two children.
Oh, this was a rather inaccurate way of putting it.
Irina had made a soundproof barrier over the motorcycle to allow Annie and Annie experience the complete wild side of riding a motorcycle without affecting the residents around.
Amy, with a black and white helmet and a black and white tight-fitting armor, looked just like a little knight. She brought Annie around the corner of the street in a perfect drift, and returned to the door of Saipan Tavern.
Annie put her leg down to support the ride. The two children pulled their helmets off as they smiled happily.
“You’re driving really well. You’ve even learned how to drift,” Mag said with a smile as he jumped off Ah Zi’s back.
“Father, are you alright?” Amy asked with concern as she jumped off the ride and rushed to Mag.
“Mm-hmm. I’m fine. Let’s go in.” Mag picked Amy up, waved at Ah Zi, and entered the tavern.
Irina kept the motorcycle for Amy, and brought Annie in.
“Where’s the baddie?” Amy asked Mag.
“I chased him away,” Mag said with a smile.
“Father is super powerful indeed!” Amy looked at Mag with admiration as her eyes sparkled.
“Oh, right, I have a little gift for you guys.” Mag took out two boxes from his pocket, and passed a large purple box to Amy and a white box to Annie.
“What is this?”
Amy opened the box, and saw that there were many local snacks in it.
“Wow! So many goodies!” Amy’s eyes lit up. She quickly took out a packet of chips and started eating.
Annie opened the little box, and there was a silver ring inside.
She picked the ring up, and looked at it through the light with delight.
“Put it on and see if it fits,” Mag told Annie with a smile.
Annie nodded obediently, and put the silver ring on her index finger. However, as Annie’s fingers were too long and thin, the ring was obviously too large for her.
Just when Annie was about to try her other fingers, the ring suddenly shrunk, and fitted nicely on her index finger.
“It fits just right.” Mag’s eyes lit up. An advanced civilization’s ring indeed. It could even adjust its size based on the wearer’s finger. “In that case, just keep it on from now on. It looks good.”
“I like it very much,” Annie said in sign language. She put her hand up to the light, and watched the ring shine under the light as she smiled happily.
After putting the two children to sleep, Irina turned to Mag, who had just come out of the shower with a towel wrapped around him, and asked, “What was that just now?”
“It was from the Cthulhu’s servant race. I led a three-headed flying snake monster above the 10th-tier out of the city and injured it heavily. After that, I called the woman over to bring him away.” Mag undid the towel and threw it aside as he walked toward the bed..
