"Why are you so shocked?" Yaeger inquired, puzzled by Little Blue's reaction.
"Master, I need to revise my earlier assessment. This isn't just a low-grade planet… It's an anomalous one!" Little Blue expressed her surprise.
"Didn't you already label it as odd previously?" Yaeger responded, slightly exasperated.
"That was then; this is now. The situation has changed," Little Blue corrected her.
"Alright, go on," Yaeger encouraged, intrigued.
"Do you know about Magic Essence?" Little Blue queried.
"Yes. The magical powers in [Saint Demon World] are formed by Life Essence," Yaeger confirmed.
"Right. It's a type of energy. I previously researched this planet and found that this country refers to this energy as spiritual power. While the terminology differs, the essence remains the same. Compared to [Saint Demon World], the energy here is exceedingly sparse, nearly nonexistent. Planets with such low life energy are typically classified as low-grade. Their lifeforms have limited evolutionary potential and are considered of little value. Frankly, I wouldn't normally land on such planets," Little Blue explained.
She then paused, giving Yaeger a chance to interject.
"So, planets are categorized as low, medium, and high grades?" Yaeger asked.
"Yes. There are even higher levels, but that's irrelevant to our current discussion," Little Blue clarified.
"So why are you surprised now if this is just a low-grade, inconsequential planet?" Yaeger queried.
"Great question, master," Little Blue replied, summoning a new set of data. "Observe, master, these figures are quite low, right?"
Yaeger peered at the data, following Little Blue's tiny finger. "How should I interpret this?" she asked.
"It's already formatted for your understanding, master. Just read it as you normally would," Little Blue explained.
Observing the comparative values of Saint Demon World and Earth, Yaeger remarked, "It's quite low." The disparity between the two was stark, akin to comparing heaven and earth. In this context, Earth appeared markedly inferior, almost pathetic.
"So, what exactly surprised you?" Yaeger pressed for clarification.
"Master, have you noticed anything unusual?" Little Blue asked.
"Other than the dismally low figures, nothing stands out," Yaeger admitted.
Little Blue, in response, tapped on the data, revealing more detailed, second-by-second updates. "Master, take another look," she urged.
Yaeger scanned the data but found nothing unusual. "What's the issue?" she inquired.
"The problem is enormous!" Little Blue exclaimed in frustration. A sudden whack followed as a tentacle playfully whipped her. "Ow! Why did you do that, master?"
"Enough with the riddles," Yaeger demanded, her gaze sharp and commanding.
Little Blue, clearly intimidated, quickly got to the point. "Master, the real issue lies in the upper value of this real-time data."
"Isn't an increase in value normal?" asked Yaeger, tilting her head in curiosity.
"No, it's extremely abnormal!" Little Blue emphasized, shaking her head vigorously. "On a low-grade planet like this, life energy should remain constant, unaffected by external factors."
"So, you're saying life energy here shouldn't be fluctuating?" Yaeger sought clarification.
"Exactly. Any changes should be minimal," Little Blue explained, pointing to the data. "But look here, master. This is how the life energy is changing as we speak."
"The value is skyrocketing…" Yaeger observed, surprised.
"Indeed. Such a drastic increase in life energy is unheard of for a low-grade planet. This might actually be a medium or even high-grade planet," Little Blue speculated with a serious tone.
Yaeger, inspired by this revelation, speculated, "So, this planet might have been higher grade but became weaker due to a loss of life energy?"
"It might not be just depletion. It could have been dormant, now awakening. Either way, this planet is becoming extremely dangerous," Little Blue warned gravely.
"Why do you think it's dangerous?" Yaeger asked, trying to piece together the clues.
Little Blue explained with increasing seriousness, "If this is indeed a higher-grade planet, it implies the existence of more advanced lifeforms. On low-grade planets, lifeforms have limited evolutionary potential, but here, they could evolve into far more powerful beings. If these creatures have been hibernating with the planet, their awakening could bring unforeseen dangers."
"I find it hard to believe such creatures exist here," Yaeger voiced her doubt.
Humans had long dominated Earth. If such powerful creatures existed, surely they would have been active in the distant past. The thought seemed improbable. Noticing Yaeger's skepticism, Little Blue addressed her concerns. "Master, I'm not sure if you've noticed, but compared to the Ancient and Mythic Eras, the lifeforms of this era are incredibly weak. Also, based on the information I've gathered, there's a ninety-five percent chance that those two previous eras actually existed."
Upon hearing Little Blue's explanation, a startling thought struck Yaeger. It seemed the world had been in a state of devolution, consistently weakening due to the diminishing life energy. "Could it be… The emergence of Martial Artists and Transcendents is a sign of the world's awakening…" Yaeger mused, her mind racing back to the Martial Artists she had encountered and defeated.
Turning to Little Blue, Yaeger inquired, "In your opinion, when did this planet begin its awakening?"
Little Blue paused thoughtfully before responding, "It appears to have started about two hundred years ago."
"Two hundred years?" Yaeger echoed, surprised by the longevity of this gradual awakening.
"Yes," Little Blue affirmed. "Since our arrival on this planet, the [City of Chaos] has been actively gathering relevant data, and it's been quite accurate. It indicates that the planet started awakening around two hundred years ago, albeit at an extremely slow pace." She paused for a moment, emphasizing her next point, "But what's truly surprising is that recently, the rate of this planet's awakening has been accelerating continuously!"
Yaeger's eyes widened as she processed this information. The thought of a rapidly awakening planet filled her with a mix of intrigue and apprehension. She pondered the implications, trying to connect the dots. "So, this acceleration… what could be causing such a drastic change now?"
Little Blue shook her head, her expression solemn. "I'm not certain. This sort of phenomenon is unprecedented."
"What kind of impact could this have?" Yaeger inquired, aware that the situation was far more complex than she initially thought.
"Naturally, it will have a significant impact," Little Blue said with a serious tone. "What concerns me the most is the possibility of dangerous beings awakening. This planet is unusually bizarre, and its behavior is unpredictable."
Yaeger, contemplating Little Blue's words, felt a twinge of unease. Such a situation never occurred in my past life,' she reflected. As someone who had experienced rebirth, Yaeger had a unique perspective on worldly events, especially those expected to occur in the next three years. But now, she was uncertain if her rebirth had altered the course of this world. ‘I hope everything will be alright,' she mused silently, aware of the potential for unforeseen changes and challenges ahead.
