Chapter 299: The Throne of the Sea God

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jonathan sat on Hellem's head and went into the Bazaar Sea. Half of Hellem's brain was composed of metal cells, which took the form of gears, steam canons, weapons and consoles. As such, its brain was like a fortress at wartime!

Isaac, the crazy alchemist, was a student of the legendary alchemist Marina. He had combined alchemy with Blood Witchcraft to upgrade a Child of the Sea to a level four creature.

With this creature, Isaac had been able to dominate part of the Stormy Sea. It was because of this that Jonathan noticed Isaac.

Jonathan was the third one to arrive at the Bazaar Sea, following Stormy Fairy Olicia and Mermaid Queen Gina. Besides them, there were also a large number of mermaids and Koutao sahagins holding steel forks and waiting outside of the film.

It wasn't long before a giant alchemy submarine arrived from a distance at great speed. It was being captained by Bobby, who then entered the film as well.

Jonathan looked on curiously, while many illusory shadows that emitted white light were constantly drifting around Hellem. He then asked, "What are they?"

"They call them the prayers. These are the lingering souls of the sea god believers!" Gina, the Mermaid Queen, told Jonathan that this was a special spiritual language that enabled spiritual communication.

Originally, this language was used by members of the church. It was then transformed and perfected by wizards before it gradually became a specific language used by the extraordinary ones.

Within the whole city of Yousar, there were a large number of prayers. These people had been believers of the sea god when they were alive, so their souls had automatically gathered in Yousar after their deaths.

Innumerable souls surrounded the huge temple in the city. They were all in a state of perplexity and were constantly whispering prayers.

Olicia felt unusually agitated at the moment. As she was the first to arrive here, she found that it was necessary to gather all the successors who were selected by the sea god in order to be able to open the door of the temple.

"The door is open!" she exclaimed.

The huge gate slowly opened, and even the huge alchemy sea monster Hellem looked extremely small in front of it. At this time, a huge shadow appeared in the temple.

Wizards, priests, and alchemists were all familiar with it, as the churches summoned it from the Divine Kingdom many times in order to suppress heresy.

As an alchemist, Jonathan recognized it immediately. "The Holy Spirit?"

As the Holy Spirit's eyes swept over the group of four, Gina immediately felt a strong force coming from it. But, what attracted their attentions most was the divine personality in the sky.

An infinite power was constantly emanating from the divine personality and covering the whole city of Yousar. Apparently, both the film and the prayers relied on this divine personality for their existences. In fact, everything here seemed to depend on the power of this divine personality!

There was also a blood bead that was floating in front of the giant statue of the sea god. At the moment, the four descendants who had Sakun's blood felt the blood inside of them burning fiercely. Together, along with the alchemy sea monster Hellem, they all let out a collective yell.

The Mermaid Queen Gina's expression changed as she said to the others, "Sea god's blood! The trial is about to begin! We can't quit halfway!"

Then, as the great Holy Spirit emitted a bright light, the door slowly closed.

Gina was the first to say, "I'm in!"

"Yes!" agreed Olicia.

The sahagin alchemist looked at Gina, the Mermaid Queen, then hesitated for a while before finally agreeing as well. "OK!"

When it was Jonathan's turn, he suddenly said, "I can quit now and not join in the fight, but whoever succeeds must fulfill their promise."

All of a sudden, everyone looked at Jonathan. Gina was not surprised. After all, it was the alchemy sea monster Hellem that had Sakun's blood. If Jonathan was not mad, he would have never let Hellem join in. Hellem could be a decent opponent of a level four sea monster, but it could never beat the one who ignited the divine fire and became half divine!

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

When the other three agreed at the same time, Jonathan smiled, then left the temple without hesitation.

After he left Yousar, a large number of mermaids gathered, as well as the extraordinary human beings and even a fleet of elves. They had all come to witness the birth of a new sea god.

More than a dozen days later, the light came from the bottom of the ocean and rushed into the sky. The city of Yousar collapsed in an instant, slowly falling into the deep trench. As it fell, two figures hurriedly escaped from it, then quickly left the Bazaar Sea and fled far away.

Half a month later, Gina, who had Sakun's blood, ignited the divine fire and transformed into a divine body, thus acquiring the divine personality. She then walked out from the bottom of the sea as a newly transformed half divine!

Sea waters diverged into two sides, revealing the bottom of the sea between them. Gina then stepped up from the deepest part of the seabed onto the waves.

The sea was now a plaything under her control. All of the people who saw her now bowed their heads as they watched her leave the sea. They all murmured in awe, as the sight of her was truly extraordinary…

"Half divine!"

"Saint on earth!"

"Is this what becoming a god looks like?"

When such a realistic example was thoroughly presented to the people, they felt shocked. This was truly a time of divinity!

Immediately, everyone knew that Gina had succeeded in inheriting the legacy of the ancient sea god and become half divine. Soon after this, the news spread throughout the sea and the world.

The battle for sea god power had come to an end. The Mermaid Kingdom now had total control over the sea. The Kingdom of Rosa d'Oro, the Sean City-State Alliance, and the Kingdom of Mara had all admitted defeat.

Thankfully, the victorious Mermaid Kingdom did not wish to continue the cold war, so the three maritime allies and the Mermaid Kingdom signed trade agreements once again, which launched peaceful trade co-ops and built positive diplomatic relations, thus restoring peace to the ever-turbulent and chaotic sea!

In the floating city, Verthandi, who was standing in front of Lu Zhiyu, pressed down the chess piece representing the sea god on the chessboard. She then raised her head and said, "I won!"

Lu Zhiyu shook his head. "It's just as boring as I expected!"

As he spoke, Lu Zhiyu suddenly looked at the distant Yala land with joy in his eyes. He then asked, "Has anyone finally begun to ascend the throne?"

Verthandi took her hands away from the chessboard and said, "Bernice, the harvest goddess!"

Chapter 300: Bernice the Harvest Goddess

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lights broke through clouds in the sky, shining on the Silver Moon Forest like holy lights from the Divine Kingdom. The forest in the early morning was filled with a thick vapor and a light fog. Milky white lights fell through the layers of tree leaves and branches, and the forest was tinged with a dreamy color.

A Moonlight Elf walked out of his tree house and looked at the sky. Suddenly, he noticed something as he looked at Taman City in the middle of the Silver Moon Forest and the Tree of Life.

"Bernice! The harvest goddess!"

In Taman, a large number of elf-style buildings and gardens were built around the Tree of Life. After the catastrophe involving the devils, Taman and the Moonlight Elves were refreshed. It was then that the whole city was rebuilt.

Now, the whole city of Taman had become an ocean of flowers and plants. Its roads were lined with colorful flowers and the city walls were composed of a variety of vines.

These vines intertwined with one another to form the most important protection of Taman. Vines, trees, and flowers could be seen everywhere in the city. They all intertwined together, grew madly everywhere, and were even integrated into the buildings themselves!

The Moonlight Elves came out of their homes and knelt down at the Tree of Life. At this moment, the whole tree was covered by light from heaven.

The light came from the bitwall above the horizon, as if it was a direct route to the Divine Kingdom. The leaves of the Tree of Life swayed in the light, while they scattered throughout the city of Taman.

"The master of harvest and life! The master of the cycle of seasons!" A harvest priest who was standing at the front was crying out to the harvest goddess.

"I pray that you will return to your holy kingdom!"

"Power, glory, and faith all belong to you forever!"

Outside, the whole city of Taman gathered in circles, everyone shouting to the harvest goddess as well. A large number of harvest goddess priests were gathered under the Tree of Life at this moment, and many elves were crying. This was because they knew that their goddess was going to return to the Divine Kingdom, become an eternal star in the sky, and rule everything!

Olanca, the high priest of the harvest goddess, was standing under the tree. His face looked very old, as most of his life had already been consumed during the devil disaster.

Now, most of his body had grown plants upon it. On one side of his face, thorns, vines, and a few small flowers could be seen. Needless to say, he looked terrifying!

Olanca was watching the glorious lights above the Tree of Life. Although half of his face was unable to move, the other side of his face was looking up at the tree. If one looked closely, they would see tears in his eyes.

"I finally succeeded!" Olanca was filled was happiness. "Goddess, am I a good guardian?"

His eyes became blurry with tears as he asked, "Did I finish my job?"

The whole tree disappeared bit by bit, and its leaves and flowers flew and scattered among the Moonlight Elves. Immediately, all of the Moonlight Elves' hair turned silver white, and their bodies naturally absorbed the deified cells of the harvest goddess.

Every Moonlight Elf received the power of the harvest goddess, which was the mark of the harvest goddess Bernice. So, the Moonlight Elves were completely different from other elves and became a uniquely special elf tribe.

"Olanca! Thank you! I'll be waiting for you in the heavens!" The Divine Shadow of Bernice, the goddess of harvest, had finally become a level seven mythological creature.

The Divine Kingdom in the sky, which belonged to the goddess of harvest, generated a dazzling light, as if it sensed the existence of a new goddess of harvest. Huge pillars of divine light were projected from the bitwall and could be seen by the whole Yala Continent. They could even be seen beyond the sea!

The elves of the Sylve Empire also saw the pillars of light that emerged from the horizon. The elf wizards seemed to have known what had happened.

"Bernice, the harvest goddess! She's really a goddess now!" said an elf wizard.

Queen Wendy also came out of the palace in Sylve and looked into the distance. Her eyes were filled with worry as she asked, "Has she really succeeded? Are we now in the era of the gods? So, where is our way out? Where should the wizards go?"

Far away in Sandro Highland, the Daytime Elves also noticed that the light pillar was like a ladder that had been erected at the end of the sky. This sight caused many of the Daytime Elves to kneel on the ground and pray to Bernice, the harvest goddess, in the distance.

Bernice followed the pillar of light, travelling through the endless sky and through the bitwall. After Bernice crossed the bitwall, she finally arrived in the depths of the Divine Kingdom.

Then, amid intense lights, Bernice entered it. In an instant, the sixteen stars of Maria's World and the silver moon shone at the same time, revealing that someone has ascended the throne and become the master of the rules of the world.

—

When Bernice entered the Divine Kingdom, she felt that countless data and rules were constantly integrated into her body. For a moment, she seemed to see the operation of the world rules clearly before her!

The time of Maria's World passed quickly in her eyes. The seasons alternated and the world changed. Plants, humans, orcs, sahagins, elves and animals lived and died by the rules of the seasons.

Bernice opened her eyes and found herself amid a blue sky of white clouds, sitting on a huge throne, which was surrounded by sixteen other thrones. All of the thrones were in a circle, and there were already four giant Divine Shadows sitting upon them. This was a country of gods, like a real world, and it was beyond Bernice's imagination.

Underfoot was the heavenly city and the heavenly mainland, which stretched to the end of the sky. There, countless prayers and saints lived. This was indeed a heavenly land above the clouds. It was a truly sacred fantasy land!

The sun goddess Verthandi looked at Bernice and said, "Welcome!"

Delmedi, the goddess of death, lay idly on the throne. Her black cloak seemed incompatible with the light atmosphere. "Here comes another one!" she said.

Kelly, the goddess of light, nodded slightly. "I am the goddess of light. Welcome Bernice to the throne!"

Bernice nodded to them one by one, then looked at Lu Zhiyu, who she felt was very familiar. "You are…"

Kelly, the goddess of light, interrupted her and said, "This is the Creator!"

Bernice was shocked. "Creator?"

Lu Zhiyu nodded and spoke to Bernice seriously. "Bernice, the goddess of harvest, you are in charge of the cycle of seasons, plant growth, and the order of life in Maria's World! As such, you must abide by god's duty, maintain the operation of the rules, and safeguard the stability of the world! Can you do that?"

Bernice felt like this had to be a dream! She quickly nodded and said, "Yes, as this is my duty."

Chapter 301: Steam Age and Steam Automobiles

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ding Dong! Ding Dong!

Whoop!

A railroad stretched all the way from Tephis to the horizon until it disappeared at the end of the sky. A steam car that had more than a dozen compartments arrived at the station in Tephis.

This steam car came from the railway that was the very first railway in Maria's World. It connected the alchemist city Tephis to the capital Finnlit.

Steam engines were now being widely used in the Sean City-State Alliance, and after the emergence of magic reinforced the steam engines, metal-activated steam engines especially had brought this new advanced technology to Tephis. Ever since their arrival, they had become wildly popular.

"The steam car is here! Now, it will only take us two days to get to Finnlit!" A chubby middle-aged woman, who was accompanied by her three children, was pushing forward through the crowd. The station was filled with people, and the steam car, which had proven itself to be a convenient tool for transportation, had already won the support of most of the people in the Sean City-State Alliance.

"Everyone must check-in on board. Guards, pay attention! They all must have tickets!" A voice came from a speaker.

Within the busy station, all kinds of people with all sizes of luggage finally got into the steam car. At both sides of the platform, guards in coats with long guns, as well as station staff, were trying to maintain order.

Lu Zhiyu stood on the platform of the station and looked at the steam car with a complicated expression on his face. The people of Sean City-State Alliance called it a steam car, while Lu Zhiyu was more accustomed to calling it a train.

For Lu Zhiyu, a steam car had a more special meaning. This steam car reminded him of an old, black and ugly steam train, which Lu Zhiyu had seen for the first time when he followed his parents on a long journey.

What an old memory! How long has it been now? Hundreds of years? Or…

Looking at the steam car, Lu Zhiyu remembered that, when he first took a train, he was as excited as the children who were beside him now. He had watched the world going backwards from the window, while his eyes shone.

The emergence of the steam car, for Lu Zhiyu, was an advancement towards the world that he knew. That world seemed to become more and more familiar in his eyes. But what the future would be like, Lu Zhiyu still was unsure.

"Please, check in! Everyone! Tickets please!" The station staffer spoke loudly in an attempt to be heard over the buzz of the passengers.

As the steam car departed, it accelerated slowly and emitted a thick smoke and a harsh whistle. Lu Zhiyu was on the car that was headed for Finnlit.

Steam cars had first appeared more than a decade ago. At first, they were designed to be mining cars for transporting ore. Later, they were used to transport commodities. It was only when the world's first railway was opened that steam cars started to become a means of transportation for daily life.

It doesn't look like the train that I expected! Is this because of the use of the metal-activated technique?

Lu Zhiyu observed this steam car and found that its most special feature was that it seemed to have applied the theory of alchemy life to its design. The metal-activated steam engine was a metal heart. After generations of improvements, plus magic reinforcement, the steam engine had developed even beyond what Lu Zhiyu had originally imagined!

The steam car was now under the control of an alchemist, the internal steam engine being controlled by the alchemist as it it were a living life! As such, the alchemist could control its internal pressure, energy, and steam condensation, as well as the acceleration and deceleration of the steam car.

This was a prototype of alchemy life that was centered on the metal-activated steam engine. After the alchemists invented the magic reinforced steam engine, they had continued to further explore alchemy life.

The magic reinforced steam engine was more special than the metal-activated steam engine, as it incorporated extraordinary power and deified cells within its design. Some high-level alchemists had mastered utilizing this design and technique, such as the alchemy doll Archimonde of Marina Bossey and the alchemy submarine of the sahagin alchemist Bobby.

"Well, isn't this amazing?" A middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties shook his head in disbelief. He was sitting opposite of Lu Zhiyu.

Lu Zhiyu nodded, "It is amazing that one could make such a big tin car move." He realized that this man was a level two alchemist, which was relatively a high status among alchemists.

The middle-aged alchemist had a smile on his face. "All this can be attributed to Ms. Marina and Mr. Lars Brown. Mr. Brown invented the steam engine and pointed the way for alchemists to follow. Ms. Marina created the metal-activated steam engine and the first magic reinforced steam engine, thus ushering us into a wonderful and bright future."

He then added, "In the future, we will use metal-activated steam engines to produce alchemy advancements that will change the world beyond everyone's imaginations. Can you imagine that? We can mount the magic reinforced steam engine on an airship, thus make airships and even iron warships that can travel really far away! Also, the city of the sky, as mentioned in the artist Lars' painting, will be possible to create in the future!

The man continued, "We are miniaturizing the activated steam engines to produce small steam cars that can be used by families and individuals. They will completely replace horse carriages, just as ordinary steam engines replaced human resources."

He then smiled and said, "If we can make the metal-activated steam engines smaller, they can be fully automated and even produce all kinds of unimaginable small-scale alchemy props! But, it's the magic reinforced steam engine that's the real miracle! Have you heard of Ms. Marina's friend, Archimonde?"

Lu Zhiyu listened to him quietly, while sometimes adding some of his opinions and ideas. The middle-aged alchemist was shocked by Lu Zhiyu's insights. He even wrote down some of his thoughts and opinions right there on the spot!

"Your insight is really beyond my imagination. Which alchemy college did you graduate from? Was it my alma mater, Akkad Alchemy College?" the middle-aged alchemist asked.

Lu Zhiyu smiled. "I graduated from Home Squatting College."

The middle-aged alchemists was puzzled by his answer, so he asked, "Holmsquetin College? Which College of alchemy is this…"

Dong! Dong! Dong!

Whoop!

At this very moment, two days and two nights of the steam car journey had finally come to an end, and the arrival whistle had interrupted the enthusiastic discussion between the two men.

"It's the last stop, Finnlit. Everyone has to get off here," the man said to Lu Zhiyu, a bit disappointed to have the conversation cut short.

When he got out of the steam car, the middle-aged man remembered that he hadn't actually introduced himself formally yet. "It was nice talking to you! My name is Robert Evelyn!"

Then, Robert shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the steam car. "I'm the one who designed this steam car and the railway."

As Finnlit was the capital of the Sean City-State Alliance, it was a real modern metropolis, with tall buildings, numerous carriages, and wide roads. As such, it took a few minutes to walk across the road, and there was a tall artist statue standing at its crossroads.

The pedestrians who Lu Zhiyu passed mostly wore modern clothes and hats and looked polite. Along the way, he also noticed that many of the people were reading newspapers. This was not surprising, as the literacy rate here was among the highest in the world.

"Newspaper! Anyone want a newspaper?"

"Cetisius I, Emperor of the Pusuote Empire, was summoned by the god of death to enter the kingdom of gods and left the living world!"

"Major changes have taken place in the Pusuote Empire!"

"The Pusuote Empire will be succeeded by Cetisius II, and the new Emperor will be crowned on Death Day."

Newsboys were running through the streets and peddling their newspapers. As soon as Lu Zhiyu came out of the station, he heard the news about Cetisius.

Immediately after Bernice, the goddess of harvest, came to the throne, Cetisius took over as the deputy ruler of death in the underworld. In fact, due to the fact that Delmedi was not interested in all of the death stuff, everything in that genre was now basically managed by Cetisius. As such, Lu Zhiyu was very much looking forward to seeing what kind of world of death Cetisius would build.

Chapter 302: The Future of Wizards

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Zhiyu's first impression of Finnlit was that there were workshops everywhere, including military workshops, steelmaking workshops, metallurgical workshops and a large number of handicraft workshops. Among these workshops, workers had become the most important and the largest class in Finnlit.

"The best cotton garments, whether they are coats, hats, or women's long dresses and underwear… Our shop has it all!" an apprentice shouted at the door of a garment store.

"Look at this hat. It's so beautiful!" Several black-haired Tuten girls with thin noses and big eyes were gathered at the display window of the garment store, chattering and laughing.

"Do you want a new type of steam lamp? We also have various handcrafts and artistic ornaments, as well as vases and music boxes from the West!" another peddler proclaimed.

"The clocks of Hood's Watch Workshop are the most famous in Finnlit!" a watch workshop staffer called out.

Seeing this shop, Lu Zhiyu suddenly recalled Lars Brown, the son of the watchmaker. With the changes brought about by the steam engines affecting the whole world, Lars' reputation was growing. Even in the Sean City-State Alliance, where the Brown family had become notorious because of Jonathan Brown, people were starting to admire Lars more and more.

On the square of Akkad Alchemy College, besides the statue of Akkad, a statue of Lars had recently been erected. Just as Lars had looked up at the statue of Akkad, all of the students who entered Akkad Alchemy College now looked up to his face and were motivated by his story!

"Carol's Grocery Store! Beer, bread, coffee and black tea from Tuten…" Lu Zhiyu had just passed a grocery store.

As machines had gradually replaced manual operations, a large number of new commodities had flooded the market. The biggest change was in clothing.

Most people could now afford to wear decent clothes, which was impossible hundreds of years ago, or even decades ago. Along with these changes, workshop owners gradually became the most powerful and wealthiest group of people besides the aristocracy!

Also, the pollution here was not as bad as Lu Zhiyu had imagined. This was because, after the city had been built, an underground drainage and sewage system had also been implemented, and many public toilets could be seen along the road.

However, because a lot of wastewater discharge had polluted the Pegasus River, the stench became a problem for all of the residents in the city. The black smoke from the chimneys of the workshops also filled the sky, making the clouds gray, which caused a lot of the people who came here for the first time to feel suffocated.

In addition, the large number of people now flowing into Finnlit had brought tremendous pressure on the wastage system of the city. As a result, some of the main streets were very cleaned, while others were piled high with garbage.

"Please give us something to eat. We haven't had anything for several days!" Several children pulled Lu Zhiyu's coat, while another child was waiting for the opportunity to steal some money from his pocket.

"I'll give you a fair price for a night, sir!" Several women in suggestive clothing waved to Lu Zhiyu.

As Lu Zhiyu crossed this dirty road, he found the dark world under the light. The coming of the steam age had brought not only wealth and progress, but also poverty and exploitation.

Lu Zhiyu could see a large number of exploited workers and skinny children, as well as gangsters running wild. Many people, in order to make a living, even had to let their wives become streetwalkers. This area was clearly the dark side of Finnlit.

As Lu Zhiyu toured Finnlitt, he felt the changing atmosphere of the times and started thinking about the future of Maria's World…

What kind of world will this world become?

After touring the city, Lu Zhiyu went directly to the city hall in the center of the city, through which was the congress castle, the political center of Sean City-State Alliance. The Prime Minister and the Parliament held important conferences here, and the Prime Minister and the Cabinet worked here.

The title of Prime Minister was originally the name of the archon when the Tuten Dynasty had a monarch. Now, even though there was no monarch, the role of Prime Minister had still been retained.

At the moment, there was a special meeting being conducted in the congress castle. This was actually one of the purposes for Lu Zhiyu's coming here, as he journeyed here to not only see the steam trend in Sean City-State Alliance, but also to meet some familiar people.

As Lu Zhiyu passed through the lobby of the congress castle, the guards at the entrance and the inspecting alchemists turned a blind eye to him. The castle was five stories high and had a large number of officers, soldiers, and public officials, all of whom were gathering here to maintain the smooth operations of the whole Sean City-State Alliance.

In a conference room on the fourth floor, Lu Zhiyu pushed open the side door and entered, then immediately sat in the back. Within this room were many extraordinary people from all over the world, including wizards, alchemists, orc wizards and even some officials of Sean City-State Alliance. At the moment, everyone was focusing on the discussion that was unfolding at the central conference table…

"What is the future of our wizards? Do we even have a future? The critical moment for making changes has arrived, and the time to decide the future of the wizards has come. We must make a decision immediately. Otherwise, we will have no future. Wizards are likely to become a flash in the pan of history and gradually withdraw from the stage of history entirely. This is absolutely unacceptable to us!" At the table, Edward Kelermo was seriously speaking to everyone present about the future of the wizards, a topic that all the extraordinary people present took very seriously.

The other people at the table were the legendary alchemist Marina Bossey, the thousand-sided illusionary technique wizard Catherine, the orc wizard Felix Bliss, who was also dean of Colossus College, as well as four other level four wizards that Lu Zhiyu didn't know very well.

Most importantly, the Prime Minister of Sean City-State Alliance was among them. The Sean City-State Alliance was the only area in the Alen Continent that had not been touched by the gods.

It was also the area that had embraced the wizards the most readily. This was the exact reason why Edward, Catherine, and Felix had chosen to hold this meeting here, as the attitude of Sean City-State Alliance was important to them.

Chapter 303: Promising Future

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The arguments continued throughout the meeting. News of gods coming to the mortal world and of new gods ascending the throne made the extraordinary people in the meeting feel extremely anxious.

The three major churches on the Alen Continent were constantly improving their divine systems, rule systems, and belief systems. As Lu Zhiyu had thought before, among the new systems, the divine grace system had become one of the most important systems. If one wanted to become a saint, learn divine incantations, and acquire divine gifts, he must constantly carry out tasks of the system of divine grace.

A large number of priests constituted a church legion to control the Alen Continent, constantly suppressing wizards. As the whole Alen Continent was gradually controlled by divine power, wizards' activities and living spaces were reduced, so the wizards who had lagged behind were becoming anxious.

"There is only one solution. Our wizards must have a god to act on our behalf!" Edward said.

Felix, Dean of the Colossus College, glanced at Edward and asked, "So, can this god guarantee the interests of all of the wizards?"

The Prime Minister of Sean City-State Alliance chimed in at this moment, "That's also my question. I can do as you want, but what can we get out of it?"

Marina looked at the crowd and said, "You may have forgotten that this is the land of alchemists."

The present debate was centering around the beliefs of the Sean City-State Alliance. The three churches on the Alen Continent would never let a wizard ascend the divine throne in their territories. This was mainly because of Heckfoss' and Louis Biketo's hatred towards wizards.

After Marina had joined the wizard tower and Colossus College, the senior cabinet members of Sean City-State Alliance had intended to get rid of the control of the alchemists. By the end of the meeting, they still hadn't reached any solid agreement.

At the same time, the three parties were also preparing for their own futures. The wizard tower was preparing to take a large number of wizards and humans to immigrate to the mainland of Yala. At present, two-thirds of Yala had yet be explored by the elves. The rich Yala Continent had now become the plan B of the wizard tower.

Also, Colossus College had built a relationship with the Mermaid Kingdom. With the good relationship between the orcs and the mermaids, they were ready to go to the Swirl Continent and built their own kingdom.

Nowadays, the masters of Akkad Alchemy College, the wizard tower, and Colossus College were no longer like the first generation of wizards. Their relationships and friendships were no longer as close as the first generation of wizards were. Instead, intense competition and cliquey exclusivity were common.

By the end of the meeting, even though Marina and the alchemists made some compromises and somewhat gained the upper hand, while the wizard tower and the Colossus College also formed an alliance with the alchemists, no real solutions were realized.

Lu Zhiyu sat quietly in the corner throughout the entire meeting. The wizard tower was going to Yala to establish its own kingdom. The Colossus College was supported by the Mermaid Kingdom, and the alchemists and Marina would ignite the divine fire in Sean City-State Alliance.

Every party had chosen their own future and decided to have a god. This was not necessarily unexpected for Lu Zhiyu, who thought that, perhaps, having a god was their only choice.

At the end of the meeting, Lu Zhiyu pushed open the side door of the hall and left quietly. At the same time, Catherine, from the first generation of wizards, saw a familiar figure in the corner.

Catherine immediately chased him outside, but did not see anyone, neither did her mind power sense any familiar smell or existence. As she did not see the person she wanted to see, she suddenly felt very depressed.

At that moment, someone patted her on the shoulder from behind and asked, "Catherine, are you looking for me?"

When Catherine looked back in surprise, she saw a black-haired and black-eyed young man, who she felt was so familiar. In fact, he was someone who all of the first generation of wizards would never forget!

Catherine tried to calm down, but still revealed her nerd-like expression from childhood as she looked at Lu Zhiyu. Even after hundreds of years, neither of them had grown old.

In fact, time seemed to have left no traces on them. They looked the same as when they were in the wizard tower. However, the people and things of that year were no longer there.

Lu Zhiyu looked at Catherine and remembered the time when she was curled up in the corner of the library, reading books in the dim light. He also remembered when Bohr, Akkad, and Li Weisi peeked at her in class.

Standing on the street in front of the tall congress castle, amid the passersby, they both smiled at one another. Catherine then asked, "What do you think of the future of the wizards, mentor?"

"Haven't you all decided that yet? After all, you are in control of your future," Lu Zhiyu replied.

Catherine said, "I don't see the future of the wizards, mentor. Becoming gods is not the future of the wizards. I only see the end of the wizards' road."

Lu Zhiyu turned back and looked at Catherine. His eyes were soft as he asked, "Why?"

Catherine frowned. "When one comes to the throne of the gods, most of the other wizards will become his followers. Wizards will then lose their own pursuits for knowledge and truth. They will, in essence, become the servants of the gods, no longer being true wizards."

Catherine looked at the sky and then at the street with sadness, as if she could not see any hope therein. "We have no future when gods exist."

Lu Zhiyu asked, "So, what is the future of the wizards in your imagination?"

Catherine laughed. "It's not just what I imagine… It's Bohr, Akkad, Li Weisi, every classmate and every wizard! They all describe the future of the wizards, the civilization of the wizards, and the wizards' world of knowledge, as well as truth and freedom to me.

Lu Zhiyu was silent for a long time. Catherine looked at Lu Zhiyu's face. Then, after a long time had passed, she saw Lu Zhiyu raise his head.

Apparently, he had made a decision. "Yes, I will let wizards have a future!"

"What kind of future is that?" Catherine asked.

"A future that satisfies you and all of the wizards!" Lu Zhiyu replied.

Chapter 304: Setting Sail

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In the 276th year of the San Calendar, everyone had begun to explore the world. The age of the sea had come, and exploration had expanded far beyond the Stormy Sea. Everyone believed that beyond the known world, there were unknown continents and new worlds that had yet to be explored.

Vessels sailed under the patronage of an aristocrat or a king, carrying the signs and banners of all of the great kingdoms. Adventurers set out with honor, wearing the emblems of a royal family or a church.

The three major churches gradually occupied the whole continent of Alen. With increasingly fierce competition growing among them, the churches also turned their eyes to the world outside the Alen Continent.

Many crazy people even tried to cross the ice sea and go to the ice land in order to see the end of the legendary world. Sadly, most of them never returned.

Edward was now at a large port in the Kingdom of Rosa d'Oro. At the moment, a fleet that consisted of hundreds of boats was waiting to depart. In this era, besides the major kingdoms and churches, only wizards could assemble such large fleets.

A wizard mentor, who was beside Edward Kelermo, glanced in the direction of the Black Forest and the wizard tower. He then asked with great reluctance, "So, we're giving everything up?"

Edward said, "My mentor, Bohr, once told me that Anthony, the great sage, once said that knowledge was the source of the wizards' power. As we still have our knowledge, we have not truly given up anything."

Edward looked out into the distance as he spoke. Over the vast sea, a flock of seabirds spread their wings and flew. The vast and boundless ocean had a tendency to make people feel passionate and ambitious.

"In the distance… That's everything we want. That is our future! I am not wrong, and you are not wrong!" When Edward said this, his eyes looked very wise. He then he looked up and shouted, "Set sail!"

As a loud horn blew, the sound of sails being pulled and wheels turning increased. In the distant Hailuga Kingdom, they had developed steam boats that were powered by propellers, and they were even ready to develop and refine steam-powered and steel war boats! At that time, they would become the real king of the sea. But at present, steam boats had not been popularized yet.

The great fleet was heading east. Wizards in long robes were standing on the deck, holding the side of the boat and looking out into the distance. Some of them were young and some were old, but they were all looking forward, a bit confused and fearful of the future.

There were not only wizards, but also the wizards' family members, as well as ordinary people on board. This was the first fleet, which would soon be followed by a large number of people, as well as a large number of wizards who went to Yala to build their kingdom.

As they travelled, the wind blew the sails and the water stirred up waves. The sun shone on the sea, reflecting a bright red off the water.

Now, in the middle of the wizard tower, Catherine stood alone at the top of the tower and looked at the distant sea. Although she could not see the team that was led by Edward Kelermo, she knew that they were leaving here and embarking on a long journey.

The original bustling wizard tower suddenly became empty, while crowded streets and various towers were also abandoned. Even busy wizard shops had been closed.

The wizard's base camp, which had been in operation for nearly three hundred years, had also become empty in an instant. A large number of buildings had been demolished, libraries were vacant, and countless wizard servants and magical beasts had disappeared.

Even the railroad steam cars had stopped running. Under the rising sun, this place looked desolate, leaving only the lazy red dragon dozing at the foot of a mountain. Moreover, the black wizard tower and the black mountain ridges had a hopeless atmosphere under the sun's light.

Most mentors, wizards, and apprentices had chosen to follow Edward Kelermo in pursuit of their futures. However, there were still many wizards who were reluctant to leave the wizard tower.

For Catherine and the rest of the wizards, Edward's pursuit of the future was not what they wanted. For them, the wizard tower was an integral part of their lives.

After all, this was where all of their memories had been made. Within the tower were decades and even centuries of the traces of time, which were filled with classmates, friends, relatives and lovers. Even if everything else passed away with time, the wizard tower was eternal.

Catherine stood on the balcony of the tower as the sun slowly rose. A deep loneliness was etched on her face. Her blond hair and delicate facial features seemed to be immersed in the memories of the past. She was like a guardian of the past memories.

The future of the wizards! Will it really come?

—

In the extremely cold Amos Icefield, a statue of a giant knight with a sword stood on the cliff. In the snowy wind, many orc wizards exited from Colossus College and tipped their hats to the tall statue. A line of orc wizards, apprentices, and their families all stood in the ice world that spread to the horizon.

Felix Bliss, who was the fox wizard and also the dean of Colossus College, looked solemn and serious. "It's time to start!" he said. "Let's go!"

All of the orc wizards boarded boats along the coast and headed for the Swirl Continent to the South, where there was a much warmer and more comfortable environment than the Amos Icefield. But, for the orc wizards of Colossus College, their beliefs didn't exist in the South.

Colosseum College and the wizard tower, which were both funded by the Sean City-State Alliance and alchemists, had assembled a large fleet to begin their journey to the future, and the whole world had changed dramatically because of this journey. The Yala Continent and the Swirl Continent, because of the arrival of the orcs, had become much more populated. In fact, the whole world was undergoing many subtle changes.

A few months later, the wizards and Edward Kelermo finally arrived in the north of Yala. They then traveled all the way to the eastern lowlands to establish their own kingdom.

With the arrival of the fleets, they began to multiply. At that time, a large number of merchant boats from the Sean City-State Alliance and the Kingdom of Rosa d'Oro also arrived.

Here, they established wizard systems, where everything was managed and controlled by the wizards. Years later, a kingdom was finally established, which was named after Edward Kelermo by his surname, in memory of his mentor and the second master of the wizard tower, Bohr Kelermo.

Chapter 305: Demi-Emperor of the Underworld

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Hou! Hou!" An enormous dragon that had transparent scales opened its wings and roared.

It was only fifteen feet long with its wings wide open, which meant it was a baby dragon. At the moment, it was flying above the Floating-space City, while roaring to show its great might.

Many fairies were so scared that they hid under the gigantic Tree of the Fairies. Amid the castles and palaces, Eva whistled from the square. Immediately, the dragon dove toward Eva like a puppy, having heard her summoning it.

It then rubbed its neck against Eva and let her stroke its neck. "Adolphus, you're being mischievous again!" Eva scolded in a teasing tone.

The dragon was a pet that used to belong to Verthandi and Delmedi. Since then, it had been enhanced by Lu Zhiyu, and it now looked more beautiful than ever.

It looked like a glittering piece of jade, which every girl and woman would go crazy over. However, after the two girls had grown tired of taking care of it, Eva had assumed the responsibility of taking care of it.

When Eva was raising Adulphus, she gave it her power to pause time, which had transformed Adulphus from a mere pet dragon into a creature that was stronger than most of the beings in Maria's World! This also gave it much more potential to be even greater in the future.

Eva loved the dragon deeply, which was why she also gave it the domain power that Lu Zhiyu had bestowed upon her. However, since that time, Eva had become a legendary creature. Now, her life form and body structure were fundamentally different from that of a mere mechanic doll.

As Eva learnt more about the sorcerers' knowledge, she was also improving her body. Thanks to Lu Zhiyu, she was learning endless theorems and a vast amount of knowledge of this world.

As for Lu Zhiyu, at the moment, he was sitting in the enormous witchcraft garden. There were several levels of the garden, all of which were enclosed by glass.

Inside the garden were all sorts of special plants. The water was constantly flowing in the fall and spring, cascading alongside the witchcraft garden, which looked like a bird cage, then circulating around it. This was a garden where rare magic-reinforced plants were being nurtured.

At the moment, Lu Zhiyu didn't seem to be doing anything. In fact, he was actually waiting for someone and preparing for something.

All of a sudden, two traces of light arrived from the sky, then went directly through the dome and enchantment that encircled the Floating-sky City. They arrived on the ground and went toward the witchcraft garden that belonged to Lu Zhiyu.

With Eva in the lead, the two of them followed her and went inside the garden. One of them immediately rushed toward Lu Zhiyu and laughed, while saying, "Dad, I'm back!"

"Okay! Stop being such a child, Delmedi!" As Lu Zhiyu put Delmedi down, she was still held onto his arms.

Lu Zhiyu then looked at Cetisius, who was standing beside the spring in the witchcraft garden, below the giant trees. The moment that Cetisius saw Lu Zhiyu, he couldn't stay calm. Then, when he saw Eva, Cetisius felt shaken all of a sudden.

Cetisius suddenly recalled that 200 years ago, when he was standing in the desert and sand was fluttering all around him. He had been inside that fortress that looked like a lone island, and it was that man who had held his ears and brought light and color into his life!

And… He was also the same man who stroked his forehead in the godly temple of Pusueto under the witness of the silver moon, then gave him the revelation that he desired, marking Cetisius as his representative. Even after 200 years, Cetisius still hadn't forgotten anything that had happened in that fortress. Cetisius wasn't afraid of anyone, even the gods who were in control of life and death, but he couldn't forget that man!

He had only been a slave back then, a priest of Temple of Sky who didn't matter. He was only a teenager when he was first marked, yet he was now an elder who had been through a lot.

As he thought of this, Cetisius couldn't help but tear up. He groveled as he crawled toward Lu Zhiyu, then kissed his boot, just like he did in the desert all those years ago.

"Randil, my lord, it's Cetisius! I'm back!" he said.

The sun cast its light through the glass window outside, its rays falling on the enormous witchcraft garden. Inside that witchcraft garden, traces of light cast long shadows on everyone. As Lu Zhiyu and Cetisius were standing among the light and the shadows, it looked other-worldly, almost like this meeting had been in the making for two centuries!

"Have you built your ideal kingdom yet, Cetisius? You wanted good things to happen to good people and bad things to happen to bad people, and you also wanted to purify everyone so that they wouldn't indulge in their own pleasures and selfish wars anymore. You also wanted people to put aside their prejudices and conflicts in order to build a future together. Have you seen this future, yet? Are you satisfied with your life?" Lu Zhiyu asked as he looked at Cetisius.

He recalled the future that Cetisius had envisioned and the accomplishments that he wanted to achieve when Lu Zhiyu had given him the revelation. Upon hearing his question, Cetisius suddenly felt shamed.

He knelt down beside Lu Zhiyu's feet and started to wail, "I didn't do it, my lord!"

Lu Zhiyu held his arms and helped him up. His eyes still looked tranquil as he smiled. He did not seem angry at all, but gratified.

"No, you've done a great job, and I believe that you'll do better in the future! Just follow your ambition and build a world of death that represents your expectations and dreams! In this world, it's impossible to achieve equality among living men, but death is the same for everyone! Even gods can't guarantee that they won't face the end of the time!" Lu Zhiyu assured him.

Cetisius stood up and looked at Lu Zhiyu. His face looked innocent and youthful, and smile curved at the edge of his lips. He looked very honest as he exclaimed, "I will! I promise that I will establish a world of death that is ruled by order, justice, and equality!"

Several days later, in the Light Major God Kingdom, a trace of light shone on the major godly throne that represented the authority of the major god. It formed an enormous godly light and shadow that filled the entire sky, and countless light bands were scattered all over the god kingdom, each casting traces of white shadows.

Kelly, the Goddess of Light, immediately noticed what was going on around her, and she instantly knew who was here. The enormous shadow of the god waved its hand, and she saw the angels surrounding the floating island.

She looked at Lu Zhiyu in silence. It seemed like she had been awaiting his arrival all this time.

After Lu Zhiyu entered the Light Major God Kingdom, he looked at up Kelly and said, "Kelly, I might be away for a while!"

"Away? Going where?" she asked.

"Outside this world! A distant place that you have never heard of before!" he replied.

Kelly paused for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, my lord. I will take care of everything here!"

"I'll give you all of the access to and authority over my god kingdom!" Lu Zhiyu looked at Kelly, then said, "No matter what happens, you three will always be the most important people to me. Nothing in this realm matters to me, and I don't need any of this as long as you three are safe."

He then added, "Wait for me… I will come back!"

As soon as Lu Zhiyu finished talking, an enormous shadow of god slipped into the hollow space before turning into a small light spot. In this way, he disappeared from this world!

Chapter 306: Finished Starship

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Zhiyu came back this time because he didn't want to delay things any longer. Lu Zhiyu's desire to leave the world in order to inspect the universe was getting stronger and stronger. Hence, it was time for him to head to the solar system and explore the universe.

Byrne Island on Pacific Island had already been transformed into the prototype of a giant Floating-space City. Lu Zhiyu found out that things had changed after he came back.

The intelligent sub-brain David that Lu Zhiyu had left immediately set a back-up plan in motion after finding that the original plan had been hindered. The entire Byrne Island had been transformed into a Floating-space City under the island, and the entire Byrne Island had been emptied. Then, when the cover around the city was unveiled, it could be seen that it was an enormous starship.

"What happened?" Lu Zhiyu asked the person in charge of the base, Gu Chaoran.

It had been more than two hundred years in Maria's World, and it had been around two hundred days since Lu Zhiyu had left the base. After more than half a year of construction, the internal side of the base looked kind of different, but not that much.

However, there were many fresh faces here, as there were over a thousand people in the base now. The inner portion of the base was completely monitored and directed by the intelligent sub-brain David.

Gu Chaoran said to Lu Zhiyu, "Our space station plan was hindered, and the rocket launching plan was elbowed out. Besides, more and more people are paying attention to our project, and there are always strangers showing up."

Lu Zhiyu nodded, then asked, "What about the Vatican Clan?"

Gu Chaoran replied, "The Vatican Clan has been supplying us with resources, but they're also stealing our technology and even trying to sneak a peek into our core technology. It seems that they're conspiring behind our backs somehow."

"Well… There's no need for us to worry about them at the moment. How's the construction of the starship going? When can we start to fly it?" Lu Zhiyu asked him.

Then, as Lu Zhiyu looked around the base, he found that the Floating-space City in front of him now was very different from the one that he saw in Maria's World. This one looked much more scientific and modern and was shaped like a gigantic wheel.

It was quite spacious inside, and there were many different areas and levels within it. The tubes at the middle were connected by elevators, and there were many maintenance robots that looked like octopuses inside. Aside from those, there were many life robots, architecture robots, and intelligent cars inside it.

The trains within it were commuting up and down the tracks, while many scientific researchers in white gowns were walking around. They nodded at Gu Chaoran, yet they didn't recognize Lu Zhiyu.

There were also many living areas, restaurants, research labs and other facilities inside. Aside from these things, there were also sports centers and city farms.

Each of the city farms had been created by combining many cities and farms, which made them look like tall buildings, yet also felt a bit like a giant botanical garden that was self-sustaining. This was because it had water, food, air and space to move, so it could hold at least 10,000 people!

Everyone inside it was wearing an intelligence bracelet, and the chip inside the bracelet was directly connected to the neurons in the people's skin. As such, everything inside was controlled by intelligence and information, as if the inner area of the starship was a completely digitalized world, which was perfectly organized by the intelligent sub-brain David.

In this way, the intelligent sub-brain David was able to monitor everyone's psychological conditions and health conditions so that it could cater to everyone's needs. Also, wherever the internal staff members went, they could hear clear instructions and notifications about water, food, travel and rest. Everything was assisted by the robots, while the bracelet represented their access authority.

Sounds of prompts could be heard everywhere, and the automatic doors and elevators were running all of the time. The robots always delivered the services in time, and the canteen would provide food and drinks based on voicemails. Even the lighting, temperature, and people's attire could be changed at any time in the snap of a finger!

As for food, it was all artificial. Though the appearance and taste of this food was not much different from real food, this food was made by machines.

This place felt like a futuristic world, and everything that happened in it seemed like a miracle that perfectly manifested the efficiency of the intelligent sub-brain David and the alchemy machine life.

"We originally planned to send the city to space by rocket after dismantling it, and after that, we figured that we could assemble it again in outer space. But, we couldn't do that without you being here. So, David told us that you have a way to send us and the entire starship to space, so we only executed the second step of the plan," Gu Chaoran explained.

As Lu Zhiyu came to the main control room of the starship, David's projection immediately showed up beside him.

"Welcome back, master!" David said.

Lu Zhiyu nodded, then commanded him, "Give me all of the latest information about this starship!"

All of a sudden, Lu Zhiyu saw the projection of the structure of the starship, while a large amount of information was transmitted to his brain. When Gu Chaoran saw Lu Zhiyu being completely silent, he naturally felt pressure and was at a loss for words.

David then said, "The main body of this starship was made of activated metal cells, and currently, they can respond to all of the environments in the space. The cells can also be regulated to the changes in the environment. As such, the metal cells will be strengthened continuously, thus allowing them to adapt to the environment around them."

Gu Chaoran then said, "The nuclear fusion bioenergy machine that you gave us was already installed in the starship, and it powers this entire starship beyond our expectations. However, we still can't understand its ability to transform and use energies, nor can we comprehend the power of nuclear fusion. So, we also used some parts of the silicon-based life, Cain, on this starship."

Gu Chaoran then added, "The starship is using a magnetoelectric slurry power propeller. However, even with the technology that we have, it'll still take us almost a hundred years to leave the solar system. The starship generates its weight through the spinning outside, and the gravity is designed to be the same as earth's."

Gu Chaoran then said, "However, there's still a big problem. The resistance of the metal cells is indeed impressive, but the defense of this starship is still weak. If it is hit by aerolites, it might be destroyed."

Lu Zhiyu looked at Gu Chaoran, who did not seem at all confident, and asked, "What else do we have?"

Gu Chaoran became more nervous, and there was sweat on his forehead as he replied, "Well… The starship that we designed can only travel in the universe theoretically. We aren't sure what kind of situations we might run into in the real universe, so we need to examine that further."

He shook his head, then added, "After all, this is the first time that such a giant starship has ever been built, so it is already beyond everyone's imagination! Still, we can't say for sure what kind of situations it might run into after it ascends into outer space."

He then added, "And… The most important thing to consider is that we don't know how you are going to send such a giant 'universe city' from the earth to space!"

Lu Zhiyu looked at Gu Chaoran and said, "You're afraid that I'm going to take you away from the earth to that mysterious universe! Just relax! I will only take away a few people who volunteer of their own accords. If you don't want to go with me, you are free to stay."

Lu Zhiyu smiled, then added, "Besides, we won't leave the solar system right away. Instead, we will explore within the solar system first, so you will all still have a chance to decide if you want to proceed further before committing yourself to the final destination."

Gu Chaoran shook his head, then said, "Well… Even though we are a bit afraid, we're still looking forward to it as well! So, I guess that you could say that we are expectant, but with some trepidation!"

Gu Chaoran gradually calmed after saying this. Lu Zhiyu then nodded and asked, "Well… When can we leave?"

"We can leave right after we finish the final testing and examination. We have enough energies now, but we still need to gather some more goods and materials. I estimate that we will be ready in one month!" Gu Chaoran said.

He then added, as if he had just thought of something important, "Boss, Cain and the silicon-based life have some follow-up news for you."

Lu Zhiyu then asked, "Did that Dr. Matt come back from Antarctica?"

Gu Chaoran shook his head. "No… He died."

Lu Zhiyu wasn't really as disappointed as he was interested, so he asked "How did he die?"

"I don't know. I only know that there was a great amount of chaos after he died, and all of the countries sent research teams and military forces to Antarctica, even violating the treaty of Antarctica by doing so!" Gu Chaoran said.

"What did they find?" Lu Zhiyu asked.

"I heard that they found a spaceship!" Gu Chaoran exclaimed with wide eyes.

Chapter 307: Wrapped Spaceship

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

There were helicopters flying in the sky, and as a gleaming trace of light slashed through the sky, several of the helicopters were destroyed. Then, several machines showed up and totally annihilated the armored vehicles that were on the ground!

The bullets from the guns were warded off by the machines' energy shields. Then, when the electric flow from the cannons hit the ground, all of the ice that was on it melted instantly. At the same time, all of the cars exploded and were instantly engulfed in flames.

Then, the helicopters that were coming to help were shot down. Meanwhile, the armored vehicles kept being destroyed, while the plasma guns were like the scepters of the Goddess of Death, gleaming brightly in the air. Several missiles were also warded off by the machines' force field.

The armies, which had arrived confident, immediately started to run away from the glacier area. A large number of soldiers, who were all wearing winter clothes, were killed on the spot. There was a great fire burning on the glacier, and all of the powers who were observing this place were terrified.

This was because several robots were already more than enough to render them powerless and defenseless. Moreover, they knew that there was a giant spaceship under the glacier, and nobody knew how many fighting robots like these were in that spaceship! Besides that, they guessed that the technology and weapons that spaceship had on it were also beyond their imaginations.

There were several campsites stationed around this area, and many people in these campsites who saw this were all feeling desperate and equally terrified. No matter how hard they tried, they weren't even able to destroy one of the fighting robots!

"This alien civilization has shown themselves as having technology that is far greater than our imaginations! They have been on this earth for a long time. Based on our observation of the ice, this might have been sealed here for hundreds of thousands of years," a research member, who was shivering in his winter clothes, said, while pointing at the data and pictures on the screen.

He then added, "In fact, they might have arrived here before Antarctica was completely sealed by the ice. As such, their spaceship might have some trouble running smoothly, which might explain why it has stayed here for such a long time."

He paused for a moment, then said, "However, we can't get into the spaceship. The second we get close to the spaceship, we will be detected and the spaceship's defense system will be activated. After that happens, a group of fighting robots will attack us!"

He then added, "Besides, the main cannon on the spaceship seems to have been triggered. So, if we keep sending our troops there, its defense system might be completely activated!"

The countries then started to contact each other and exchange the information and clues that they had with one another. The scientists were specifically looking for information about the alien civilization that was coded "Atlantis." They were trying to find a way to get into the spaceship in order to converse with those within it.

At the moment, everyone who was having a meeting in the camp, including all of the soldiers and researchers who were stationed around the pre-civilization lakes, walked out of their tents and looked toward the glaciers.

A gleaming trace of light suddenly surged into the sky and an intense storm broke out. The entire glacier was destroyed and all of the clouds withered away from the sky. The trace of light then pierced through the atmosphere and rushed toward outer space.

The storm light blinded everyone present for a second, and all of the research members in Antarctica noticed it. They then saw fierce light pillars piercing through the sky. The energy vibration and photons were leaking out of them, blurring the sky above Antarctica.

"Who did this? Who got into the restrained area again?" At this moment, a researcher who was monitoring the glaciers pointed at the screen and said, "It's him!"

He then shouted, "Open the dimensional door! Projection!"

At this moment, a human shape appeared in the sky. After being hit by the spaceship's major cannon, he wasn't injured at all! Instead, another light shadow had been formed.

Its body was made of up traces of light, and its halo kept getting larger until it surrounded the entire glacier. Soon, the entire area was surrounded by this halo, and as for the light shadow, it was floating in the middle of everything, overlooking its kingdom like a god.

"Oh my god! What is that?" a white scientist exclaimed. He felt like his world was crumbling.

"We just saw an alien civilization! What is this? Has God descended to Earth? What's happening?" the white official pulled off his hat and looked at the sky, stunned.

"Buddhas?" an Asian soldier asked his friend, who was beside him, jokingly. However, his friend was so stunned that he couldn't even reply.

Everyone stood inside the halo now, and they watched as the light shadow that was already at its maximize size reach out its hand and smash the entire glacier! It then grabbed the giant spaceship and was pulled out of the ice by it before ascending toward the sky.

The spaceship was being seized by an enormous amount of power as it exited the glacier. Mountains of ice were cracked and soon fell on the ground. At that moment, countless fighting robots rushed out of the spaceship and flew toward the light shadow in the sky.

Then, as the halo in the sky started to move, traces of light shot down from the sky. They pierced through the bionic robots, one by one, instantly destroying the robots' energy shields. As hundreds of bionic robots fell from the sky, they were instantly engulfed in flames.

Soon, some more bionic robots rushed out of the spaceship, yet they were all immediately destroyed by the light that was being shot out from the halo. Then, the spaceship lifted off from the ice and started to ascend gradually, as if there was no gravity affecting it.

The spaceship, which was as large as a city, was now in the sky, while thousands of robots were also flying in the sky. Even the plasma guns and photons were traveling in the sky, attacking the enemy as they went.

At the top of the sky, a light shadow was occupying the entire sky, and the traces of light coming out of it seemed to be disturbing the space and time. They kept permeating the entire space, while all of the fighting robots kept being penetrated by the traces of light.

Cracks, destruction, fire and light… These were the scenes happening in the sky. It was as if there was an apocalypse happening at the moment!

"Perhaps I'm dreaming!" one researcher cried out, while all the other researchers felt light-headed and soon fell to the ground.

As for the soldiers, they all lost their wills to fight after seeing what had just happened in the sky. They felt that the weapons and armored vehicles that they had were like miniature toys compared to their enemy's weapons!

As for the gigantic dimensional door that was behind Lu Zhiyu, it had located the spaceship. It seemed that most of the functions couldn't be activated, so it was gradually dragged into the giant halo behind Lu Zhiyu. As it was dragged through the halo, it moved slowly, then disappeared.

After the enormous spaceship was swallowed by the dimensional door, the enormous halo behind Lu Zhiyu was retracted. Then, the dimensional door was closed and Lu Zhiyu turned to look at the satellites.

All of the politicians everywhere in the world were watching what was happening on the screen, their faces covered by the light from the screen. They gasped as they saw Lu Zhiyu's gleaming eyes, which looked aloof and prominent, like those of a god.

Everyone was petrified, and they were all thinking… Who is he?

Then, Lu Zhiyu turned around, walked through the space, and disappeared from the sky above Antarctica.

Chapter 308: An Unknown Mythical Creature

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As the giant spaceship fell into the astral world, Lu Zhiyu's violent attacks completely activated the spaceship's defense system. However, the spaceship still seemed to be on the defensive instead of the offensive.

"No one's there," he said.

He then asked, "Then, who let out those fighting robots tens of thousands of years ago? Or… Were they merely following their programming?"

As Lu Zhiyu stood above the giant spaceship, those fighting robots kept attacking him. With the erosion of Lu Zhiyu's power, those robots were reprogrammed into being his allies. Then, they turned their backs against the other fighting robots and small armored vehicles that were coming out of the spaceship.

The spaceship's side was crushed, and many fighting robots and small armored helicopters fell under Lu Zhiyu's control. Gradually, these fighting robots and armored helicopters stopped attacking Lu Zhiyu. They then opened the protection shield, blocking all of the entryways and cabins so that the spaceship was only in defensive mode.

The protection shield had been completely activated at this time. The two plasma launchers shot plasma out, which immediately formed a giant oval shield of force that protected the entire spaceship.

Via a magnetic field, the plasma was constrained and a stable shield was formed. As for the high temperature that was coming from the plasma, which was supposed to destroy the spaceship instantly, it was kept out of the magnetic field by the special equipment that constrained the plasma.

Lu Zhiyu could tell from the fighting robots that the technique of the shield of force that was owned by that civilization was pretty advanced. As Lu Zhiyu turned those fighting robots against each other, he found out that there were signs on these robots that they were radiated by the power of a mysterious and mythical creature, and it was the same biological force power that the fighting robot Cain possessed.

They've encountered a being like me before? Lu Zhiyu immediately frowned, and his interest in the interior design of this space was piqued.

Lu Zhiyu knew how powerful and terrific he was, yet even he was far inferior to this civilization, both in the realms of power and technology. However, a mythical creature that was only conceptual was like a virus in the real world, and only other mythical creatures were able to kill it. Otherwise, it would be able to infect others the second it had the chance.

These mythical creatures were able to corrode both carbon-based lives and silicon-based lives. They were also able to take control of those living beings, killing them and seizing their powers.

Lu Zhiyu could even imagine that when those robots encountered the mythical creatures, they would immediately seize their spaceship and their fighting robots. They would then turn those robots against their own kind, causing them to destroy the others in the spaceship.

This was only the basic power that a mythical creature had. Lu Zhiyu's power was way more intricate.

As for those mythical creatures at a higher level, even Lu Zhiyu couldn't envision their abilities. However, the level-nine ability of the creatures that Lu Zhiyu was pursuing could easily transform the quality of materials and create a picture of the creature of the world.

This was an evolutionary path that was completely different from that of one that used technology. Lu Zhiyu thought that he was the only one in this world who had this kind of life form, but it now seemed that this was not the case.

The spaceship that was being protected by the shield of force kept emanating the biological force that it had been infected with by the mythical creature. As such, it was disturbing the Lu Zhiyu's observation. So, Lu Zhiyu decided to get into the spaceship to check everything himself.

Lu Zhiyu turned into a light shadow, which pierced through the standing shield of the spaceship. It didn't trigger anything inside it. In fact, it was as if the force field that had been formed by plasma completely ignored Lu Zhiyu!

Lu Zhiyu got through the protection shield and came closer to the giant spaceship that looked like an enormous city. It looked like a golden crown yet was not a hollow ring like a regular crown, but was filled inside.

Lu Zhi entered the spaceship through the central cabin door. The interior part of the spaceship was different from what Lu Zhiyu had expected.

The lighting was flickering, and he could hear an intense sound of an alarm. However, he couldn't see anyone inside.

All of the portals had already been blocked, and the interior part of the spaceship was covered by black vines and branches. It seemed as if those black vines and branches had actually grown on this spaceship.

The vines and branches were now swallowing the spaceship, and they looked like some sort of bizarre creatures. At this moment, they were silent, while they stopped eroding those that had been previously corroded.

"It's indeed a mythical creature," he exclaimed. "It's so powerful!"

Lu Zhiyu was amazed by its power, but he still didn't know what kind of creature and the power he was facing. The trunk that had grown inside this spaceship wasn't the original body of that creature. Instead, it was a creature that had mutated after being radiated by the power of the mythical creature's cells!

It seemed that this spaceship had encountered that mythical creature, and after it was radiated by the power of that creature, its shape morphed and headed straight toward that the creature. It was just like when the demon relatives were infected by the power of the abyss… The infection on those fighting robots also came from that enormous trunk at that time!

Lu Zhi kept moving forward and traveled through the power cabin in the spaceship. After observing the entire spaceship for some time, some of his questions were answered.

Based on his speculation, this spaceship came from a nebula in Orion that was more than 1,500 light years away from earth. Nobody on earth could figure out what kind of speed they were traveling at, nor how they could have managed to make such a long journey. It was likely that the speed of the spaceship would be at least at light speed since it had been able to make its way to earth.

The faster an object traveled, the greater its mass would be, and when it reached light speed, its mass would become infinitely large. The spaceship wouldn't be able to withstand such a weight, so the spaceship would disintegrate instantly. Even Lu Zhiyu couldn't imagine how that spaceship from an alien civilization had successfully traveled all the way to earth from 1,500 light years away!

"Anti-material fuels, space curvature engine!" he exclaimed.

Just as Lu Zhiyu had expected, the technology of this alien civilization had far exceeded that of the earth's civilization, but it wasn't too advanced to be beyond the earthlings' imaginations. Even so, it was still considered an advanced universe civilization to the earthlings, and compared to them, the earth's civilization was like a primitive tribe.

Lu Zhiyu observed the spaceship for a long time, then concluded that it was an advanced interstellar civilization. They were even able to create a seemingly silicon-based life, but one that was different from what Lu Zhiyu had expected.

This was because they were not actually silicon-based lives. Instead, it was highly likely that they were creatures that were very similar to humans.

It could be told from the interior structures and the facilities, height, and width of that spaceship that this was a race with similar body shapes, body structures, and habits as the humans. Even their characters were very similar to humans'.

However, in the interior part of the spaceship, Lu Zhiyu didn't see any existences or even any remains of those alien creatures. There were giant tree trunks that were spread out inside the spaceship, and Lu Zhiyu could see that the entire spaceship had morphed into the shape of that bizarre mythical creature.

Perhaps the living creatures inside were more fragile, so they were immediately transformed by that mythical creature? Lu Zhiyu thought.

Lu Zhiyu then walked through the cabin, where there were branches and twigs intertwined, and the force field coming out of those tree branches were able to change any ordinary living creature that came near it, assimilating it into the mythical creature. As Lu Zhiyu walked through those tree branches and emanated his own life force field, the tree branches started to degenerate.

Then, they eventually disappeared, and the spaceship turned back to how it originally was. Upon seeing this, Lu Zhiyu slowly walked to the center of the spaceship.

Chapter 309: High-Dimensional Life

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Zhiyu noticed something different the moment he arrived at the center of the spaceship. When the cabin door opened, a brain monster with a giant head rushed out of the cabin.

Numerous eyeballs were packed on its head, and there were a large amount of tentacles under its chin. Powerful vibrations rushed out of the tentacles, reaching out toward Lu Zhiyu.

The vibration waves seemed to carry a stream of power that could affect someone's consciousness and mind. Yet, the second that Lu Zhiyu stepped in, the light that was coming from him immediately permeated the entire space.

It was as if a sun had just walked into that cabin. All of the brain monsters were melted under that intense light.

Countless horrendous and terrifying brain monsters flooded out from the deep and filled the entire portal. However, they were immediately killed before they could even put up a fight!

Lu Zhiyu could finally see what those alien creatures looked like now, as on the other end of the cabin door, numerous alien creatures were intertwined with those twits. He could only see their appearances through the parts where they had assimilated with the twits.

Then, all of a sudden, Lu Zhiyu felt a bit bewildered. This was because all of those creatures looked exactly like human beings! In fact, Lu Zhiyu couldn't see any difference between the two!

According to the information that I have on the spaceship, it landed on earth hundreds of thousands of years ago! Lu Zhiyu thought. The genetic information of humans dates back millions of years ago, and I traced the historical record of the humans myself. When they landed on earth, it was during the homo sapiens era.

Lu Zhiyu thought about another possibility… Is it possible that these guys used the gene-editing technology to artificially improve their ancestors, just like I did when I gave the humans in Maria's World the power of bloodline and life templates to the dragon race?

He then immediately shook his head as he thought… But, that doesn't make sense either. After all, the remains of Homo heidelbergensis, Javanese, and Beijing monks all proved it. So… Maybe it's the elder race?

He then shook his head again and thought… However, it was exactly hundreds of thousands of years ago when the human ancestors started to gain intelligence and turned into homo sapiens. This matches the same time when these aliens arrived on earth. Perhaps they chose to create creatures similar to the ones they saw! Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain why these alien creatures and humans evolved to look exactly the same.

As he pondered over these things, Lu Zhiyu walked through the portal and arrived at the center of the spaceship. The moment he walked through the portal, he saw the light outside that was shining upon the center, as well as the sky and the sun outside. They looked the same as the sky and the sun that Lu Zhiyu had simulated in the Floating-space City.

Lu Zhiyu then discovered that he was at the bottom of a skyscraper, and below his feet was an enormous city at the center of the spaceship. It was a spacious city of technology, and each building had the city farm that was envisioned by the human beings. These buildings stood tall and had quite a few transparent tubes connecting them.

Lu Zhiyu could see vehicles travelling in the tubes. They were flying through the air and were covered by layers of black branches.

All of the broken and assimilated robots were scattered around the vehicles, and the entire city was surrounded by the terrifying tree branches. As these tree branches filled the city, they intertwined with each other, forming a pillar and extending toward the sky.

Lu Zhiyu could imagine the sharp changes and complete state of catastrophe that this city was experiencing. He wondered if all of the living creatures inside the spaceship were in despair, as all of the public transportation and portals had been destroyed.

Lu Zhiyu wasn't in a rush at the moment, so he walked down the stairs slowly. He then walked through the tubes that were connecting the buildings and headed toward the center of the city.

Many brain monsters crawled out from everywhere in the city. Those creatures, which looked like demons, were the living creatures that were born in the city. It could be inferred from the looks of their bodies that they had assimilated with the branches.

This entire city felt like an extensive tomb and a collection of graves, as the only thing left in the area seemed to be death and desolation. After hundreds of thousands of years, Lu Zhiyu was the first tourist to have ever visited this place.

As Lu Zhiyu walked through the city, he saw a large number of creatures that had assimilated into mythical creatures. There were human-shaped creatures, and there were even all kinds of pets as well. There were also special plants and a large number of living samples in the botanical garden.

After seeing all of this, he wondered… If the assimilation power of the mythical creature is so powerful, why would it get interrupted?

He could see how that giant tree trunk had grown and swallowed the city. Everything from buildings to aliens, creatures, public transport vehicles, plants and animals were all assimilating into that mythical creature!

Lu Zhiyu believed that such a terrific creature could have easily made the spaceship assimilate into it already, so he couldn't figure out why the assimilation had stopped halfway through completion.

Lu Zhiyu arrived at the zone that seemed to be the center of the entire city, where assimilation seemed to be the most complete. All of the tree branches had intertwined with each other, and he could see the roots hanging down from the sky. It was like a horrendous dark forest.

However, everything just stopped here. There seemed to be something at the center that blocked everything from going any further.

Lu Zhiyu walked through the main hall, while tearing apart all of the tree trunks that had a diameter of at least ten feet. When he arrived at the center, the intrusion abruptly stopped at that point, andLu Zhiyu was thrilled by what he felt in that moment.

Lu Zhiyu felt an immense amount of willpower, which he converted to 100,000 units of mind power. The immense amount of mind power that was coming out from the center hindered and suppressed the assimilation of the spaceship into the black tree trunks, thus lowering the speed of the spaceship as it was assimilating into the black tree trunks.

A super computer? Lu Zhiyu wondered as he saw a gigantic light ball at the center. As he looked around at the characters, the decrypted character file of Atlantis immediately started to translate the information that these characters had just provided to Lu Zhiyu.

It was a gigantic light ball, and there were traces of light shuttling back and forth inside of it. He could also see oceans of information spinning inside the light ball.

Lu Zhiyu discerned that at least one million consciousnesses were packed in that light ball, and they had gathered together and were emanating that immense stream of power of consciousness. However, these consciousnesses didn't know how to extract matter from the zero-dimensional space, so they could only stay as consciousnesses instead of being transformed into mind power that could interfere with reality, and they certainly could not be transformed into mythical living shapes!

Just as Lu Zhiyu was approaching the giant glass ball, light screens emerged from the ground around him. Traces of light and data were shuttling to and fro, while an exquisite and beautiful female figure appeared in front of Lu Zhiyu.

She was wearing a custom outfit that was so tight that her private parts were showing. She looked incredibly seductive.

"Welcome to the playground!" she said. "We have everything you want in this playground, and you can experience all kinds of lives. This playground will fulfill every one of your desires."

As she spoke, Lu Zhiyu asked the linguists that he had with him to help him translate the language of Atlantis. Those linguists kept translating the language and explained to Lu Zhiyu what the female figure was talking about.

Is it a virtual-reality world? Lu Zhiyu wondered.

He immediately knew what happened here before. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, something drastic had happened to the interior part of this spaceship, and at the end, everyone in the spaceship gave up their own bodies and entered the virtual world, which was this super computer that was now in front of Lu Zhiyu.

Even though the consciousnesses couldn't store memories, the super computer was able to help them do so. Hence, even though this civilization wasn't able to detect the existence of mind power, the virtual-reality technology they created, which was an immortality technology to some extent, had transferred their consciousnesses to the super computer that was in front of Lu Zhiyu.

The super computer then gathered the consciousnesses of more than one million people and stored them within it. This super computer was also supposed to hold all of the people in this spaceship.

Lu Zhiyu was standing in front of the light ball of the super computer, and as he pointed at the light ball with his finger, a control panel popped out immediately. It then told Lu Zhiyu that he didn't have the access authority to operate it.

After hearing this, Lu Zhiyu penetrated the computer with his mind power, which unlocked it immediately. Layers of tips and character alerts kept immediately flashed across the screen, while Lu Zhiyu extracted all of this information.

Lu Zhiyu immediately found what he was looking for, which was the journal of the captain! Just as Lu Zhiyu expected, they did come from the large nebula in Orion, but that wasn't their real hometown.

Instead, there was a reconstructed colonial star named Yach in Orion, which was owned by the Atlantis people. They were observing the young nebular at the edge of the nebula.

The discovery and reconstruction of Yach was a trial and scientific advancement of the Atlantis civilization. Thus, it was more of a scientific research center than a colonial star.

This piece of information solved many of the puzzles in Lu Zhiyu's mind, as there was no way that such a developed civilization would choose to inhabit the large nebula of Orion, where the living conditions were so harsh. So, although this spaceship had indeed taken off from the large nebula in Orion, it wasn't made there.

Only the captain of this spaceship had come from the mother star. As for the other residents in this spaceship, they were born on that colonial star called Yach. In fact, they had been living on that colonial star for generations.

Moreover, this wasn't an exploration spaceship, but a fleeing spaceship. They had apparently encountered a catastrophe that had almost wiped out their entire civilization, which is why they had to flee to a mysterious and unknown universe. The translation of the name of their civilization was Atlantis, and this spaceship was named "Hope," and the title of the last captain meant the word blue.

In year 5868 in the Star Calendar, a mysterious and superior creature suddenly approached our galaxy. We couldn't observe where it came from and where it was headed. All of a sudden, it showed up in our galaxy, without any warning… The journal recorded.

We named it "Dark Mother Tree." Dark Mother Tree approached us and swallowed our entire mother planet. Everyone on the planet, even including the planet itself, then became a part of it. It kept emanating a special force field, infecting everything around it and forcing everything to assimilate into it. All the living creatures, even those lifeless objects, were penetrated by its power. Its enormous tree trunk found its root on our planet, and the entire planet became its nutrients. We can't figure out where it comes from or where it is heading toward. Also, no matter what we try, we can't injure it in the slightest…

The journal continued… Researchers concluded that it is a higher-dimensional creature that's beyond our imagination. It was able to travel through time, which is how it arrived at our galaxy. We can't be sure whether it comes from the ancient past or the distant future.

Also, it is a higher-dimensional creature. As such, time should only be a conceptual noun that describes the changes in its material. It is immortal, making it a creature that is way beyond our imaginations and knowledge. We don't know why it came to our era or what it is looking for…

No matter how we tried to communicate with it, it was useless. It seemed that it just refused to communicate with us. To it, we're just like bugs, worthless and inferior creatures not worth conversing with. Even the war between us and them was stupid and laughable. We tried to fight it, yet it didn't even move its body at all! It just took a glimpse at us and we lost the war!

The journal continued… Our mother planet was totally destroyed. The enormous number of monsters bred by the Dark Mother Tree kept attacking and infecting us. Everyone became its sidekicks, under its power, and the entire civilization of Atlantis became an enslaved civilization.

Then, the monsters that were coming from the Dark Mother Tree kept attacking us, and even some of our own turned against us. Not only did we lose our mother star, but we also lost several colonial stars. We then had to flee to the most distant colonial star, Yach.

Then… Da*n it! Those b*stards chased us down here too, and Yach was also conquered! A large number of monsters have now completely occupied Yach. I have to take the surviving people of Atlantis to flee, but I don't know we to go. We have already lost all of our territories. Now, Hope is like a lone island in the universe, not knowing where to fly!

The journal recorded… There is a seed of Dark Mother Trees outside our cabin, and it has reached the interior part of the cabin. We've lost all hope already. We might even be the last group of people from Atlantis, as our civilization was totally destroyed!

Lu Zhiyu kept reading through the captain's journal. He was only skimming through the journal, but he could still feel the desperation of this captain named "Blue."

The journal recorded… It is now inevitable that many of the monsters and our companions have been infected and have assimilated into the creature. I have received an order for all of the surviving ones to enter the playground so that we can save our civilization. Fortunately, the second everyone entered the playground, the infection and transformation stopped!

However, we have now been transformed into data. Hopefully, the spaceship "Hope" can find a planet that is inhabitable. Perhaps that's where we can reignite our hopes and carry on our civilization. At this moment, the spaceship has changed to automatic flying mode, and the "Hope plan" has been enacted. The civilization of Atlantis will never die!

Lu Zhiyu clicked into the so-called Hope plan and perused its section of journals. He immediately saw a large number of photos of the earth, which had captions regarding reconstructing intelligent lives. All of those plans were carried out by the intelligent robots, and the super computer at the center was in charge of this entire plan!

Lu Zhiyu then clicked into the information section about the virtual world of the playground, and he immediately found out that the virtual world had been closed for 400,000 years! When Lu Zhiyu clicked into the final journal, he read that the playground was closed with everyone's consent after 2,000 years of operation.

They had then deleted all of their memories and wiped away all of the data, yet they didn't state the reasons behind these actions. They only found the solar system after hundreds of years of fleeing, and it took the spaceship around 2,000 years to find the earth and land on it.

After reading this, Lu Zhiyu stayed silent for a long time as he thought… Perhaps they were completely in despair and had lost all hope, making them not want to live any longer..

As he looked at this spacious spaceship and that giant city in ruins, Lu Zhiyu felt that it wasn't a spaceship, but was more like a gigantic tomb! As Lu Zhiyu looked at the giant super computer inside it, he gazed at the floating consciousnesses of the final surviving people of the Atlantis.

At this moment, they had lost their memories, thus making their consciousnesses no longer viable. However, because of spaceship had assimilated into the Dark Mother Tree, the powerful force field was enveloping it. Hence, their consciousnesses couldn't wither away, but were trapped inside forever.

Lu Zhiyu finally figured out where that spaceship had come from, as well as the distant secret dating back to when the human beings were born. However, the thing that actually piqued Lu Zhiyu's interests was the existence mentioned in the journal of Captain Blue, which was the existence that had destroyed their civilization.

The Dark Mother Tree! Lu Zhiyu thought. A higher-dimensional creature? Not a high-dimensional creature space-wise, but a creature that has traveled through time?

He then wondered… How can a creature that can shuttle back and forth through time exist? This doesn't make any sense!

Even Lu Zhiyu found this too difficult to comprehend, not to mention the people from Atlantis!

Chapter 310: Semi-Perpetual Machine

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As Lu Zhiyu took down the super computer that was in front of him, he observed it closely. It was an optical brain, which controlled the entire spaceship and was a representation of the high-end technology of the civilization of Atlantis. Lu Zhiyu urgently needed the information that was stored inside this computer, which was way beyond the imaginations of the earthlings.

When Lu Zhiyu touched the optical brain with his hand, his mythical cells started to penetrate that bio-optic brain, and the structure of the computer started to assimilate into Lu Zhiyu's power. At the same time, the structure on the surface started to change.

Only after a long while did it stop changing. By that time, it had turned from an originally transparent ball to a silver, shining semi-transparent ball. It looked just like the main computer that was in Lu Zhiyu's god kingdom. What's more, it looked like Lu Zhiyu's original body!

"Now, I can call it a bio-optic brain!" Lu Zhiyu exclaimed.

The original bio-optic brain had now been combined with the bio-computer that Lu Zhiyu often, and the combination of the two showed Lu Zhiyu's impressive calculating powers. After the bio-optic brain was successfully reconstructed, Lu Zhiyu took it down.

Lu Zhiyu now knew that this was the greatest gain of this trip to the spaceship. Now, thoughts and ideas that he had been wanting to make realities but had never had the chance to do so flooded his mind.

Lu Zhiyu didn't try to touch the consciousnesses that were remaining inside. This was because if he tried to combine the consciousnesses, it would bring too much trouble to the mythical creature.

After Lu Zhiyu left the spaceship Hope, he immediately went back to his Floating-space City. As Lu Zhiyu was about to enter the main control room of Floating-space City, a great amount of light shone upon him, while scanning him.

The light only allowed Lu Zhiyu entry after confirming his identity. At that moment, the manager of Floating-space City rushed in, a slight panic on her face. But, when he saw that it was Lu Zhiyu, he was relieved and started to relax a little.

"Master! You're back!" he exclaimed.

In Maria's World time, Lu Zhiyu had been gone for a couple of years. However, there were still some issues that Lu Zhiyu had to deal with on earth.

In fact, Lu Zhiyu hadn'texpected to come back here this soon, but his discovery of the spaceship Hope and the civilization of Atlantis had interrupted his original plans.

"Yes, I came back early," Lu Zhiyu said.

He then reached out his hands and took down the picture that was hanging in the main control room. This picture was the only protective screen that led to the dimensional space, and as such, it was the main access authority of the crystal wall that Lu Zhiyu had created.

However, Lu Zhiyu gradually realized that this picture actually didn't exist, at least to some extent, as nobody except him was able to touch it. They could only look at that picture.

Hence, it seemed to be an object that only existed in the conceptual mind, as physically and material-wise, it didn't actually exist. It was more like an authority that was ingrained in the deeper area of Lu Zhiyu's soul and consciousness. The picture was only an image, a silhouette that had been created.

When Lu Zhiyu came back here, he had brought back a living creature. It was a giant ball that had a diameter of thirty feet. It had instantly attracted Eva's attention, yet the only thing that Eva could observe about it were the terrific consciousness ripples that were inside the ball.

After leaving spaceship Hope, the body of collective consciousnesses that was locked by the force field of the mythical life immediately started to accept the laws in this material world, causing it to begin to wither away. However, the optical computer was still penetrated by Lu Zhiyu's power, so the body of consciousnesses was still deeply locked inside and couldn't go dissipate entirely.

"What is this?" Eva wondered aloud as she moved closer to the bio-optic brain.

"This is a bio-optic brain. This will be the key that enables the crystal wall to take the next step and improve itself," Lu Zhiyu explained.

He then added, "It'll be a semi-perpetual machine and the perfection system and control system of the crystal wall. As such, it will be the most important key and access authority of the entire crystal wall."

Lu Zhiyu had only come up with the idea of a semi-perpetual machine after he created the Abyss World. The Abyss World was not a normal world, but was more like an upgraded version of the god kingdom, a world that was between the states of illusion and reality.

It was a world that was an extension of matter, soul, and the power of mythical creatures, just like the devil species. The most noticeable characteristic of the Abyss World was that it didn't consume any of Lu Zhiyu's energies, nor did it consume the material of the crystal wall.

Yet, it still kept enlarging and improving itself. To some extent, it was already a perpetual machine, as it didn't consume any of the material energies from the crystal wall, but at the same time, somehow was able to continuously increase in size!

When it came to comparing all of the dimensions and levels, it was not technically a real perpetual machine. This was because it was extracting the power from other dimensions in order to improve itself, and idea that Lu Zhiyu first came up with for a semi-perpetual machine had actually stemmed from that.

If I can create a machine or a facility that can extract energies from the universe in other dimensions, then it'll be a real perpetual machine for this crystal wall! It won't need any energies in this world, yet it can still be operated and create everything in this world! Lu Zhiyu thought.

It will keep extracting energies from the universes of other dimensions, and it'll keep creating even more dimensions in this crystal wall! In this way, it can continuously improve this enormous crystal wall universe!

A semi-perpetual machine was actually a decoy perpetual machine that stole energies from the universes of other dimensions in order to remain operational. In this way, not only could it operate itself, it could also provide endless material energies for Lu Zhiyu to use.

From the perspective of all of the dimensions of myriad universes, it wasn't actually considered to be perpetually functioning. Instead, it was kind of stealing energies from the universes of other dimensions.

Yet, to the crystal wall itself, it was indeed a perpetual machine. That was why it was called semi-perpetual, as it was only perpetual relatively speaking.

This was similar to how Lu Zhiyu used a picture to extract the material energies from the earth universe, yet this time, it would be a real, perfected portal facility, and it would create an eternal portal in the world universe to steal the material energies from the earth universe. Meanwhile, it could avoid the trouble that often resulted from a long period of keeping a portal open so that both sides can stay stable.

Lu Zhiyu approached the bio-optic brain with the picture in his hands, then reached out his hands and saw that the brain was swallowing the picture gradually. All of a sudden, a gleaming light came out of the bio-optic brain, while countless scenes started popping out on the screen.

Scenes from Maria's World, the Zerg world, and the Abyss World suddenly were circulating on the bio-optic brain. These scenes were all showing the histories of those worlds, including the scenes where Lu Zhiyu had created the crystal wall and all of the dimensions, as well as all of the majors in all eras and the heroes that arose from those chaotic periods.

Lu Zhiyu saw the queen insect, the war of the insect race, and the grand escape. He also saw Ahenaten and himself in the past, fragile and naïve.

He saw himself hiding in the castle of space, testing and editing the genes and creating one creature after another. He also saw how he had become stronger and stronger gradually.

Then, he saw one star god kingdom after another surging into the sky. This scene was followed by one that depicted the changes in the Abyss World and the evolution of the demon race.

After that, lots of data and special symbols kept flooding across the screen. Most of the symbols kept blinking in a weird three-dimensional structure. The information that kept blinking was so vase, Lu Zhiyu felt like his brain was about to explode as he looked at it all.

When the picture finally merged with that bio-optic brain completely, it replaced the original picture and became the true controller of the authority of the universe of the crystal wall. Meanwhile, this bio-optic brain also became a part of Lu Zhiyu's body.

The enormous bio-optic brain floated in the control room of the Floating-space City, and the silver flowing light from the brain soon filled the entire control room. As Lu Zhiyu waved his hands, a hologram of the entire crystal wall appeared in front of him.

Now, the entire crystal wall now was like an empty and hollow structure. There were only two dimensions, Maria's World and the Abyss World, and Lu Zhiyu couldn't even find their locations with his naked eye. Instead, he needed to zoom in so that he could find where they were located in the vast astral world.

At this moment, when Lu Zhiyu touched a location at the edge of the astral world, a trace of light shone down. A dimming light spot immediately started to extend.

This was an embryonic form of a dimensional world that was just born, and it seemed to be extracting the energies from the outside realm. It kept morphing at a very slow speed, which was contrary to how Lu Zhiyu had quickly extracted the energies all at once.

However, the portal was now stabilized, so there wasn't any hidden danger. A stable portal that could flow naturally was exactly what Lu Zhi needed most right now!

"I've succeeded!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with excitement.

Lu Zhiyu saw that the stabilized portal was working, so he knew that his plan for a semi-perpetual machine had succeeded. This bio-optic brain was already successful, having been deeply ingrained into the deep area of the earth universe! It had opened a stable and fixed portal somewhere that even Lu Zhiyu didn't know about and had extracted the energies therein!

Chapter 311: New World

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As for Lu Zhiyu, he shifted his focus to the embryonic form of the world that had been gradually bulging. It was now only a form that with a dimensional wall emerging, and there weren't even rules and orders inside yet, not to mention lands and air. Lu Zhiyu roughly calculated the time this embryonic world needed to get to the size of the space of Maria's World, and based on the time flow in astral world (as fast as that in Maria's World), it would take around ten years.

Also, it would take another ten years for the lands and ocean inside to be perfected. It was Lu Zhiyu who designed and altered the rules, flow of time and the life system inside the dimensional world, after which it needed quite a few energies and measures to amend the world. To achieve a new and sustainable world, or a world like Maria's World that was truly complete, it would take an immense amount of time and energies, which was why Lu Zhiyu needed that semi-perpetual machine to provide energies for it.

Also, the internal life system and intelligent creatures were also vital to that world, and they might be the most important factor in the development and the future of that world.

Lu Zhiyu was pondering the world he just created, and he was thinking of the amendments he should make for it. This was the fourth world that Lu Zhiyu was about to design, and what Lu Zhiyu really wanted was to distinguish it from Maria's World and World of Abyss.

The creation of Maria's World was to make the path smoother to Lu Zhiyu. It was a god kingdom by design, and Lu Zhiyu had already set the future for the god kingdom. As for the world of abyss, it was an attempt for Lu Zhiyu to reach the path of level nine.

To Lu Zhiyu, this new world was a world different from god kingdom. Lu Zhiyu suddenly recalled the world that Katherine promised, which was a future that was arranged for sorcerers that they wanted.

"This new world will be designated to be a world of sorcerers and sorcery civilization, and it was an exploration of the path of god kingdom." He thought.

Lu Zhiyu took a look at the giant semi-perpetual machine which contained the consciousness of all the people from Atlantis. Lu Zhiyu let them be reborn in the new world on purpose. It felt meaningless, yet it still gave Lu Zhiyu Lu Zhiyu a special feeling when he did that. It felt like reincarnation.

"A civilization that was destroyed by a high-dimensional life, and it is the origin of the birth of human beings. Now, they're at the hands of a mythical creature like me, and they're about to be reborn because of me. It's just like fatalism." He thought.

Lu Zhiyu was changing the new world in the semi-perpetual machine, and he could now see that with the material energies gathering, and crystal wall kept bulging, perfecting the embryonic form of a new world gradually.

"I'll use the model of a standard world for it!" he thought.

"Other models in my envision is not stable at all, so it might have some tremendous hidden safety issues. I won't test those models, instead, I'll stick to the standard model of worlds." Lu Zhiyu thought about it for a moment, then he decided to revert back to the model of the original version Maria's World to create the new world he envisioned instead of using the new ideas he had in mind.

He kept infusing it with energies. After typing in the world model in the semi-perpetual bio-optic brain, he stopped paying attention to it.

As for Lu Zhiyu, he now took the time to check how Maria's World was doing. Goddess of Harvest Bernice getting the throne of god, Cetisius became the demi-emperor of the underworld by lighting the godly fire. Then, the next one who was going to be a god was Louis Biketo, who was going to become a god before Gina, who was a mermaid with the blood of Sakun.

After Louis Biketo seizing the throne of the master of the knight, he led all the members from the Gathering of Darkness to get out of the area of the western Church of Light, heading toward the kingdom of what was called an exotic realm.

The exotic realm was a kingdom formed by more than ten countries, and it was at the most southern place of Alen Continent. The continent was hot, humid with a rich soy. The countries and races in the exotic realm refused to communicate with the outside world, and their customs were also different from all the kingdom outside. If someone wanted to get to the exotic realm from Church of Light Kingdom, he must go through vast and boundless forests and mountains. These mountains were connected to the black forest, or so to say, the black forest itself was an extension at the end of those mountains.

If it weren't for the war Pusuote Kingdom waged against them, causing the destruction of several kingdoms in the exotic realm and forcing them to get out and communicate with the outside world, most of the people on that continent would have no idea that there was a vast land and an exotic realm like that in the south.

As for Louis Biketo, he was staying in a kingdom called Hollyma, and he established the belief of the master of the night. Gathering of Darkness now finally found its place in this exotic realm and started to boom, becoming the mainstream belief system in the kingdoms in this realm. With the powerful belief system, Louis Biketo became a god in less than twenty years.

Then came the empress of mermaid, Gina, who was successfully summoned and entered the star god kingdom several years after Lu Zhiyu arrived back, becoming God of the Sea.

Other than that, Sorcerer Gao Ta was moved to Yala Continent established a new kingdom at the far east end of the continent under the lead of Edward Klomo. He was also preparing to gather the believers and ignite the godly fire.

The king of Hailuga Kingdom, Jonathan Brown, announced in his kingdom that he would become a believer of Master of Storm, a god and a belief system that came out of nowhere suddenly became orthodox belief system of Hailuga Kingdom, which also gained population across the ocean. Many captains of ships, sailors, adventurers and pirates became believers of Master of Storm.

At this moment, inside City Alliance of Sheehan, all the alchemy sorcerers started to publicize the belief of Goddess of Steam and Machine, and at the other end of the ocean, on the Swirl Continent, a new kingdom that was made of special orcs were also quickly being developed.

"Now, there are already six gods, and there are four other candidates for gods. However, it seems that the potential for this era has been fully exploited, so it might take a long time until the next candidate for god shows up." He said.

Lu Zhiyu observed Maria's World for a while, and six people had already become gods. As for the other four candidates for gods, they would also become gods in the next following decades. However, after those ten, Lu Zhiyu couldn't find any more suitable candidates to inherit the positions of gods.

The entire Maria's World seemed to have arrived at a tipping point, and everything seemed to be detached from the original track, rushing toward an unpredictable future.

Everything was quickly developing, so quick that they didn't even realize what was going on, not to mention catching up. However, this world also seemed to be being stabilized, which was the last chance for everyone. Once this world was stabilized, everyone would lose their chance to become a controller of the world.

All the saints were fighting, yet many of them felt lost and worried about their future.

After Lu Zhiyu came back, Kelly, Verthandi and Delmedi all went to greet Lu Zhiyu. Lu Zhiyu gave them the access authority and stamp to land on and to be transported to the capital city of Floating-space City.

After that, Lu Zhiyu moved Floating-space City away from the dimensional wall of Maria's World and headed toward astral world to prepare for the new world he was perfecting. The new world was being bred and amended, and it was becoming more and more like a real world. It had been a long time since Lu Zhiyu had the excitement of creating a new world.

Chapter 312: The Starsoul World and the Goblins

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Zhiyu set up a standard world model, which was composed of land, sea, and sky. But, since the land and the sea at the moment were so small, they looked like tiny islands and lakes. Then, with the passage of time, they expanded.

At the moment, the ocean was completely frozen. In fact, the whole world was like a dark, frozen world. This was because the area of the frozen ocean had kept expanding until it had filled the whole world.

After a violent explosion occurred, which involved energy radiation, a globular luminous plasma was created in the bitwall. It was actually a simulated sun. Of course, it was inferior to the real sun in the Earth's universe in all respects.

Its light broke through the darkness in an instant, illuminated the whole earth, and bringing light and warmth into the world. This was the source of life and the basis for all survival.

The ice-bound ocean melted gradually, and the earth emerged from beneath the sea bit by bit. A total of seven continents and countless islands then appeared.

After that, the sea water evaporated and vapor went into the sky. Then, dark clouds began to appear above the sky, while rainwater fell on the earth, causing numerous plants to flourish.

These plants came out of the ground and grew towards the sky. Greenery soon spread throughout the whole continent. The bottom of the ocean also began to evolve, as a a variety of marine plants and the seeds of these plants spread throughout the whole world.

"Gravity is stable, time speed is fixed, and oxygen is adequate. Ok, the source of life is good!" After analyzing everything carefully, Lu Zhiyu was satisfied with everything at present.

When Lu Zhiyu came to the shore this time, the edge of the sea had grown into a dense jungle. Here, the sun shone on the surface of the sea and everything looked quiet, peaceful, and harmonious.

The length of day and night was set up, as were the four seasons. At the moment, night was coming! The night of this world was totally dark.

When Lu Zhiyu reached out, he saw a strip of fluorescent light flowing from his sleeve. This became a bright Milky Way that began revolving around Lu Zhiyu, then rushed into the sky.

A whole bright strip of stars glittered in the world's bitwall. As such, the night was thoroughly lit up.

Stars now twinkled in the sky, instantly making the evening world beautiful and dreamlike. As he sat listening to the sound of the waves and tides, Lu Zhiyu suddenly became emotional.

"Starsouls. I use this name to address you, as well as to remember your predecessors and pay tribute to you. There is no moon now, as there is no need for the moon," Lu Zhiyu murmured as he looked up. "Now, I shall name this world the Starsoul World!"

Starsouls were the awarenesses of more than one million people in Atlantis. Lu Zhiyu had transformed these people into starsouls, then made them the guardians of this new world.

Starsouls were friendly and tame divine creatures. They had been infused with Lu Zhiyu's divine ability. As such, they could be regarded as his relatives. Their main job was to protect this world and maintain its rules.

In a sense, they were the embodiments of the will of this world and Lu Zhiyu's spokespersons. The stars foretold the changes, disasters, solar terms and rules of the world. At the same time, they regulated the life cycle of the world and enforced its rules.

At the moment, the stars were twinkling and merging into a collective awareness. It seemed that they were trying to communicate something to Lu Zhiyu. Lu Zhiyu smiled, but did not answer.

The cycle of life and the preliminary world's rules had been set. In Lu Zhiyu's eyes, the semi-perpetual biological brain connected with one's awareness. As such, numerous data flew through the brain continuously. When Lu Zhiyu waved, the data was set.

"Build the magic net." After Lu Zhiyu gave this instruction, a special channel network immediately spread all over the world.

The foundation of the extraordinary power was built in this world. Without the magic net, it was impossible to collect vital source material. This was the disadvantage in the astral, as Lu Zhiyu couldn't cover the whole astral with the magic net, thus making it unnecessary.

After all, magic nets had been built in the three current worlds. So, he considered that this was enough.

After creating several worlds, Lu Zhiyu was familiar with all of the steps. With just a wave of his sleeve, a new world was set up and all of its necessary parts came into being instantly.

When the world stabilized and the magic net was set up, time slowed down rapidly before finally being stabilized. However, there was no life system yet. But, this was exciting, as a life system that was different from the current ones in existence could create a truly unique civilization!

——————–

Lu Zhiyu also built a half bitwall in the bitwall of the Starsoul World. In the half bitwall, he tried to debug and manufacture the intelligent life system of the Starsoul World.

The half bitwall that made up the intelligent life system of every world was called the lab of the creator. This was where every species was born and where all of life originated.

This intelligent life system was different from the past ones. To use past experience and create a life system that was different from Maria's World and the Abyss World, one needed to take into account many aspects.

After all, intelligent life was the greatest miracle, yet it was also quite vulnerable. As such, any error or mistake would lead to irreparable consequences.

Arrgh!

Lu Zhiyu heard a cry as he took out a fragile young life from a nutrient chamber. It was a human-like creature that had green skin and long pointy ears. It also had dexterous hands and a developed and intelligent brain.

As it opened its eyes and looked at the world for the first time, the first thing it saw was a man with black hair and black eyes. It then explored the world with its smart eyes and giggled loudly.

Lu Zhiyu held it in both hands, as if he was welcoming a newborn baby into the world. "Welcome! You are the first goblin in the world!" he said, while smiling.

Behind Lu Zhiyu, a large number of goblins were being conceived within the nutrient chambers, which were aligned in several rows.

Chapter 313: Elf Altar

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

On a slightly barren plain, the forests were sparse, the vegetation was not rich, and the weather was unusually cold. A group of green-skinned goblins were noisily rushing through the jungle, chasing a wild boar.

All of the goblins were waving spears in their hands. However, they looked as if they were not hunting, but were rather involved in some grand dance.

"Ah ah ah ah!"

"Lu Gai! Lu Gai!"

The goblins shouted in a meaningless language. Although they had started to record their language, there was still a long way to go before their language system was perfected.

Dressed in leather skirts, they rushed at the wild boar with wide steps. At this time, a giant monster emerged from the forest.

The monster was carrying a huge stone hammer, which it used to smash the boar to death! As the monster roared in triumph, other giant monsters rushed out of the forest with heavy steps. Seeing this terrifying scene, the goblins immediately dispersed.

More than 200 years had passed since the birth of the first goblin. The normal lifespan of the average goblin was about 60 years, which was much lower than the lifespans of human beings.

There had already been 20 generations of goblins. This was because their fertility was much stronger than human beings'. A goblin could give birth to three to six pups at one time. This strong fertility enabled them to occupy the entire plain and beyond.

However, they were not the overlords of this plain. Instead, it was the giant monsters who had dominion here. In the forest, in addition to a large number of magical beasts and monsters, there was a kind of creature called the dwarfs, who often clashed with the goblins. This was because the dwarfs posed a threat to the survival of the goblins.

In addition to giant monsters, dwarfs, and magical beasts, in the southern forests, the goblins encountered a peculiar group of fairies. Fairies, like giant monsters and magical beasts, could use magic.

Goblins called the forest that the fairies stayed in the Forest of Fairies. In addition, in the depths of the woods, there were all kinds of strange things. All kinds of unknown creatures, each species of which had a high degree of wisdom and a variety of magical powers.

The goblins called the land underfoot the Titan Continent. At present, the goblins had only begun to form a rudimentary language that consisted of very basic words.

But, according to their ancestors' stories, the world was created by a powerful titan who was as tall as a mountain. He created everything in the world. Moreover, the goblins, the giant monsters, and the dwarfs were the direct descendants of this titan!

Compared with other species, goblins and dwarfs did not have any extraordinary powers. Thus, they did not have any advantages over the others. As such, they had to make a variety of tools and weapons in order to protect themselves.

Goblins used obsidian to forge weapons and stone to build appliances and houses. The dwarfs living in the mines begun to melt copper ore to produce copper tools. Their disadvantage forced them to arm themselves with wisdom.

"They are really talented. At this early stage, they've already learned how to make and use tools so quickly! That is much faster than the human beings." Lu Zhiyu was impressed with the goblins.

At present, most intelligent creatures on the Titan Continent lived in the Starsoul World. The name of the continent had been decided by the goblins.

Lu Zhiyu did not realize that, when the first goblin saw him at its birth, it remembered him as being a giant. Then, this became a popular legend that was told to all of the following generations of goblins!

Nowadays, this world had more diverse species than even Maria's World, which only had humans and orcs.

On the plain of the Titan Continent, clashes between goblins, giant monsters, dwarfs and fairies often took place. After Lu Zhiyu made sure that there were no major problems in the life system he created, he did not pay much attention to it, deciding to let it develop on its own.

When Lu Zhiyu made goblins and dwarfs, they did not have any special abilities. However, Lu Zhiyu did make them highly talented in manufacturing and creating vital things, which was a skill that even exceeded human beings. Although they did not have the extraordinary abilities like other species, they were considered to be full of potential in Lu Zhiyu's eyes.

At this stage, this standard model of this world was almost complete. However, since the remaining continents and oceans still needed a lot of improvements, the semi-perpetual machine couldn't stop running yet.

Seeing this, Lu Zhiyu left Starsoul World, as the world had basically been completed. So, Lu Zhiyu had to start preparing for other things. Specifically, it was time to fulfill his promise to Catherine.

Lu Zhiyu planned to let the wizards who were reluctant to leave Maria's World immigrate here. In this world, without the constraints of gods and various conditions to restrict the development of wizards, they would be able to fully develop their potentials.

What exactly will the wizard civilization look like?

Compared with the Starsoul World, which one will be better?

Lu Zhiyu was concerned about the future of the wizards.

——————

Yala, Maria's World

On the shore of the Lake of Life, a large number of elves were watching a ceremony. The elves and the elf wizards in the Sylve Empire, as well as the elf Queen Wendy and Wolfe were all present.

The city of Sylve was about to have a comprehensive foundation reconstruction. The Lake of Life would be reconstructed into a water source for the wizards. The Sylve Empire was going to transform the whole city of Sylve into a city of witchcraft!

The altar, which was originally between the Tree of Life and the Lake of Life, had to be relocated. As it was the oldest altar of the elves, the elves hosted a grand ceremony before it was relocated. As it was such a special event, the Queen and all of the high-ranking officials of the elf empire were present.

Among the ancient legends of the elves, the altar was the oldest relic in Sylve. It was said that the secret of the origin of the elves was within it. Some also said that the secret of the altar was somehow related to the agreement between the elves and the Lord of Natural Order.

But, most of the elves believed that it was only an old altar and that the Lord of Natural Order had gradually become a mere symbol of Sylve, rather than a solid and true belief.

"Be careful! It's a relic that was left by our ancestors. Be respectful!" Some of the elves were not satisfied with the relocation project.

At the moment, flagstones were being pried open, revealing decayed and scattered coffins. All of the elves present were curious, so they surrounded the workers to see what was in the altar.

The officials and wizards of the Sylve Empire looked at the bottom of the altar. Each of them had grown up listening to the legends about the altar and the elves, and now, everyone was filled with curiosity! But suddenly, all of the elves and elf wizards gasped and stared in shock…

"Isn't this a wizard servant?" An elf wizard immediately recognized the servant inside and asked.

"A wizard servant?" Windy frowned. "Whose prank is this? How can it appear in our altar?"

More elves were also making angry comments. After all, the altar was still very important to the elves of the Sylve Empire. This was their ancestral land, where they believed that their oldest ancestors' bones were buried.

Now, it had become the location of the remains of some silly and humble wizard servants. None of the elves could accept such a thing!

Wendy, the Queen of the elves, had a better understanding of the legend of the altar. It was said that the altar was the tomb of the Lord of Natural Order, who had created the elves.

Wolfe stood beside the Elf Queen Wendy, a look of horror on his face. "How can this be? The emergence of wizard servants and the rise of wizards only happened a few hundred years ago, and here, it can be traced back to the era of the birth of the elves, so how can they appear here?"

"Whose prank is this?" A senior Druid raised his wand in anger, while looking around.

Wendy looked at the corpse in the altar. It was like an armored shell. Even after such a long time, it had still not decayed.

"How could this be? No one has ever moved anything here, as it's a sacred burial ground. But, how could the servants bury themselves in our altar and allow themselves to be unknowingly worshiped by us? They shouldn't be here!" A wizard still couldn't believe that this was real!

"A wizard servant is a bloodline-transformed creature that was created by my mentor, the cultivation method of which started to spread from the wizard tower only a hundred years ago…" When Wendy said this, she stopped abruptly, as if she had just thought of something. She then started murmuring…

"How could it be?"

"How could it be possible?

"How could this be?"

She kept repeating those same questions. Her eyes was full of fear, doubt, and shock. She looked at the altar and felt that the world had become illusory amid the sunshine.

"The god? The altar? The Lord of Natural Order?" While she was still murmuring, Wendy looked back at all of this and suddenly felt that the world was spinning and becoming unreal.

As Wendy looked again at the prized altar, her wand fell to the ground. She felt like she had just discovered something…

Wolfe looked at Wendy, confusion filling his voice. "What's wrong? Wendy?"

Wendy had a sad smile on her face as she said, "I'm just… I just don't feel very well! Ha ha ha ha… All this… What the heck is going on? This world! Ha ha! Is it all a game or a hoax?"

Wendy's words made everyone feel very confused. As they all watched her, completely perplexed, she staggered back to the palace. As they watched her retreating form, they all thought that she looked so lonely.

Chapter 314: Gods' Meeting

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Six gods were seated on the thrones of the Divine Kingdom. Although there were more empty thrones, the atmosphere in the room felt busier than ever before.

The goddess of light Kelly, the goddess of sun Verthandi, the goddess of death Delmedi, the master of the night Louis Biketo, the goddess of harvest Bernice and the goddess of sea Gina sat in a circle and held the first meeting of the gods. This was the first meeting between the gods.

Apart from formalizing the first Agreement of Gods, which was made among the first group of gods, they would sign a renewed Agreement of Gods to restrain the competition for authority between gods and maintain the operation of the whole world at the same time.

"The first agreement states that the main bitwall could suppress level sevens, making it impossible for them to cross the bitwall at will. They could either come to the Divine Kingdom or the underworld. In addition, they could also enter the half bitwall or leave Maria's World! Moreover, fighting in Maria's world is prohibited for level sevens. Now, we need draw up the second agreement." Kelly spoke first, setting the agenda for the meeting.

"The first matter regards the division of theocracy and territory. Needless to say, every god and divine personality present has its own theocracy and territory, but the power of every divine personality also has great expansion potential. For example, the divine personality of Louis can expand to the realm of dreams and illusions, while Bernice, the goddess of harvest can make efforts towards mastering the management of lives," said Kelly.

Kelly, the goddess of light, was also the Divine Kingdom host. Although every god was equal in status, Kelly had the authority to restrict the other gods. So, at this time, the meeting of gods was being presided over by her and being held in the Kingdom of Light.

"The expansion of theocracy must be based on the premise of maintaining and stabilizing world order and stability. As such, every god is the spokesman and manager of the world order. Therefore, this is the rule that every god must abide by. As such, any claims over theocracy, except for preliminary theocracy, depend upon one's own development and efforts." Kelly wrote down the first one matter of business, concerning the expansion of the divine power and authority, as she spoke.

This particular matter was related to the perfection of the rules of the whole world, as well as the ultimate perfection of Maria's World. This also happened to involve the most important step for Lu Zhiyu to reach level nine!

"I Agree!"

"I Agree!"

"I Agree!"

In every Divine Shadow above the thrones, a vague appearance of the gods could been seen. They all expressed their opinions.

The gods present all agreed to the agreement regarding their most basic authority. However, when it came to beliefs, the six gods had a fierce quarrel. Finally, they agreed that the gods could not directly intervene with human beings' beliefs, which was then also written into the Agreement of the Gods.

In the Kingdom of Light, Louis also talked about wizards and alchemists. He believed that wizards and alchemists were the greatest sources of instability and danger in the world. Hence, he believed that they must be under the control of gods.

Kelly, the goddess of light, took a look at Louis as he was speaking. Although Louis was expressionless, she could see at a glance what he was thinking and feeling.

"Edward Kelermo, the legendary alchemist Marina Bossey, and Felix, the fox wizard and dean of Colossus College, have been identified as potential candidates for future gods. Wizards and alchemists should be subject to their internal sect's constraints, not ours. This was clearly stated in the previously agreed upon terms," said Kelly.

After this, the gods made the arrangements for the coming of the next era, the plan of world perfection, and the preparation of world upgrading. They then talked about Delmedi's underworld.

After Cetisius became the deputy manager, the underworld underwent a series of reforms. However, unlike the Divine Kingdom, the underworld itself was the largest subordinate half bitwall that was attached to the main world. And, with the passage of time, it just kept expanding.

In regards to how big the realm of the underworld was, the goddess of death, Delmedi, was not clear. It was only when Cetisius recently started to manage the underworld that he realized how broad the underworld really was.

In addition to the gates of the underworld, the river basin, and the city of the soul, Chirom, which Delmedi managed, there were countless dead creatures in the vast realm of death, all of which had been enlarged by the force of death. Even many Ghost Wizards and demon warlocks were secretly summoning these dead creatures to send them to go and spy on the underworld.

They were trying to escape the reincarnation of life and death with the power of these creatures in the underworld. With such motives, the Ghost Wizards and the demon warlocks were extremely dangerous and might cause harm and trouble to the gods and the world.

After agreeing that all of the souls of the unbelievers should be managed by the underworld, Kelly urged Delmedi to pay closer attention to the management of the underworld to ensure that there would be no mistakes. Delmedi agreed, secretly planning to cheekily tell Cetisius of this matter by mimicking Kelly's tone!

At the end of the first meeting of gods, the Agreement of the Gods was officially renewed. This agreement was written in the gods' language via mind power and floated above the sky in the Kingdom of Light. It then revolved around the floating islands, where the thrones of the gods were located.

Then, all of the gods simultaneously made their own official marks on the agreement. At once, they saw the golden agreement spinning and shining fiercely. Then, the host of the Divine Kingdom officially recognized its validity.

At this time, not only did the extraordinary gods, but even the regular gods felt an inexplicable force of restraint come upon them. This was the power of the almighty rules!

The meeting of the gods and the perfection of the Agreement of the Gods had once again promoted the further development of the world. All of the loopholes and imperfections had now been repaired. For those with extraordinary powers, the era in which they could do whatever they wanted would never return.

Soon following this grand event, the gods gradually took control of Maria's World. This was an era full of opportunities, but for the extraordinary, it was not the best era.

No matter how powerful, gifted, and ambitious they were, they were now limited. After all, the rules of the world and the gods now set constraints for everything in this world.

The floating city of Lu Zhiyu revolved around Maria's World, which was not far away. On the central square of the floating city, there were two huge gates.

The huge gates were made of white metal and had dense, complicated geometric drawings on them. The center of the gates were illusory, yet they couldn't been seen through. Instead, they looked like two huge swirling gray eddies.

Lu Zhiyu walked up the steps and went into one of the huge gates. Then, he stepped out of the other gate.

This was the space portal that Lu Zhiyu had designed after learning some spatial theories from Atlantis. Of course, his past experience with using the dimensional door also helped him in designing the gates.

Eva stood under the steps of the two giant space portals, stroking the neck of the Titan Dragon Adolphus and waiting for Lu Zhiyu to come down. She then called out, "Master, you succeeded!"

Eva was clearly happy for him. She had watched Lu Zhiyu make these two portals. To do so, Lu Zhiyu didn't use the scroll, but had applied the principles of space.

Lu Zhiyu nodded to her and said with a smile, "Yes, it was successful!"

At this time, a wave of energy pulsed through Maria's World. Although it was very slight, the Lu Zhiyu, as the master of the world, felt it immediately.

Lu Zhiyu's mood seemed to become somewhat complicated at that moment. "The world is beginning to move towards perfection! Is the age of the gods coming? The kingdom of the gods…"

Chapter 315: Another World

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"This portal can only work for half a month! It is not stable, so it can't support a long-term operation. Also, once it is opened, it can't be closed. Half a month from now, the space cracks will tear apart everything around the portal," Lu Zhiyu said.

He was standing on the bottom mountain slope of the tower. The red dragon, which had not seen him for nearly three hundred years, was now calmly sitting at his feet.

At this moment, all of the wizards present were those who had decided to stay in the wizard tower. They were staring at Lu Zhiyu, wondering why the red dragon, which had always been arrogant and ferocious, was now like an adoring puppy at Lu Zhiyu's feet.

When Lu Zhiyu waved his hand, the huge gates appeared at the bottom of the black mountain where the wizard tower sat. Instantly, all of the wizards let out numerous cries of surprise. However, Catherine was not surprised at all. After all, in her eyes, Anthony, the great sage, was already understood as being omnipotent.

The huge gate looked magnificent as it sat at the bottom of the mountain. Lu Zhiyu looked back to see the shocked faces of all of the wizards present. There were 300 of them in total, plus around 1,000 of their family members. The busy wizard tower that Lu Zhiyu had remembered in the past no longer existed.

Lu Zhiyu's eyes swept over everyone. These people looked at Lu Zhiyu with curiosity, shock, and even some glimmers of hope.

For Lu Zhiyu, this wizard tower was no longer the one that he was familiar with. Now, in his eyes, it was just a lonely building that was standing on the black mountain near a beautiful castle.

Moreover, the wizards here were no longer the ones that Lu Zhiyu knew. Those who were taught by Lu Zhiyu had since become apprentices, then great wizards, while many had long passed away in history. When he turned to Catherine, Lu Zhiyu finally felt a semblance of familiarity.

Catherine went to Lu Zhiyu and stood on the steps of the space portal. Then, they climbed up them together, slowly.

As Catherine turned to face Lu Zhiyu, her first question was, "Mentor, what's at the other end?"

Lu Zhiyu's hand touched the rough surface of the portal as he replied calmly, "It's another world, a world where extraordinary powers have not completely emerged yet. It is a world without restraints from any gods!"

Lu Zhiyu looked at Catherine and added, "There, you will see the future of the wizards!"

Speaking of this, Lu Zhiyu's expression looked somewhat complicated, "But, to get there, you may have to leave here forever, departing from your homeland and going to another unknown and distant world! It's much farther from this current world than you might think. It's a distance that is hard to describe with units. Are you ready take everyone to an unknown world and open up the future you want? Specifically, Catherine, do you really want to leave this place?"

Catherine smiled confidently and calmly. She looked as if she didn't feel the slightest sadness, but only hope.

She then said, "Since it is impossible for me to come back again, let me take everything and everyone that is special and important with me! Fortunately, the space portal you built is big enough to take the whole wizard tower and everything else we would we want to take away… In fact, most everything I know has already disappeared in the recent years!"

Although Catherine was still smiling, during the last sentence she spoke, her voice grew hoarse. As Catherine looked at Lu Zhiyu, she recognized that, although they both looked young, the vicissitudes shown in their eyes still revealed everything that they had been through.

Catherine turned her head and avoided Lu Zhiyu's gaze. Then, after a long time, she calmed down and turned to face Lu Zhiyu again.

"Well, let's not talk about that. Let's talk about the future instead!" she said.

Sunshine streamed down on them and a refreshing afternoon breeze blew over the lawn at the bottom square of the tower before gently whistling through the surrounding devil camphor trees. Clouds accumulated like mountains in the distance, but the clouds over their heads seemed thin.

Catherine's face burst into a new smile. She stretched out in front of Lu Zhiyu, as if embracing the breeze and sunshine, as well as the past and the future to come.

She then exclaimed, "I will inherit the will of Bohr, Akkad, Li Weisi, Henry and Uruk, building the future that all of our tower wizards and apprentices have hoped for together! It will be a civilized kingdom of wizards and a dream place for all of us… A new world of knowledge, order and freedom!"

The sunshine seemed to hug Catherine, while her bright smile that she beamed at Lu Zhiyu was as warm as the sunlight itself.

She then called out to him, "Mentor, I know you haven't told us many of your secrets! I know, Bohr knows, and Akkad knows! But, we are all very grateful to you, as it was you who taught us how to recognize the world, gave us the power to pursue truth and knowledge, and gave us the future and the hopes of wonderful lives! In any case, going down this road was each of our choices, and I know our lives will be wonderful because we made those choices!"

After hearing Catherine's words, Lu Zhiyu was so touched, he was rendered speechless. After a long time, all of his emotions could still only be translated into a simple three-word reply, "Thank you, too!"

Lu Zhiyu stayed awhile longer, while Catherine accompanied him around the entire wizard tower. Catherine told Lu Zhiyu everything that had happened here, and he did not leave until the sun set.

In year 308 of the San Calendar, Catherine led the remaining members of the tower and the summoned wizards from other places out of Maria's World. Nearly 500 wizards in total left with her to journey to the Starsoul World.

Thousands of family members and ordinary people also left with them. This was made possible by Catherine's using witchcraft to move the whole wizard tower, as well as most of its buildings, thus allowing them to be transported to the other world.

After all, since her mentor Anthony had told her it was impossible to come back, she had decided to just take everything that she couldn't give up with her! Together, all of them crossed the space portal and headed to the other side of the vast astral. In the new world, they would have a new future!

Chapter 316: Dragon Island

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Zhiyu was fascinated with the design of the space portal. To be exact, the transmission by the space portal was more similar to a kind of transmission at the information level.

It was based on the ability of mythical creatures to transmit information regardless of space distance. The two gates realized the transmission across space through the transmission of information between mythical cells.

The gate at one end scanned those to be transmitted with mind power, then stored their information in atomic form. The huge amount of information was then was transmitted to the other gate. When the other gate received the information, it assembled it and transformed the information into real things.

Because each life had a unique awareness, they could be formed at the second gate based on the received data regarding their awareness, as well as their souls and body values. As such, every transmission through this space portal was a process of decomposition and composition.

As an incredibly large amount of information and data was being transmitted and a huge amount of energy was required to open the dimensional void, each time one went through this space portal, it was a thrilling and dangerous journey!

Lu Zhiyu tried many times before gradually perfecting the space portal. However, without the semi-perpetual bio-optic brain to open the dimensional channel, even the transmission of a molecule could consume a huge amount of energy.

This meant that it was extremely unstable. Hence, at present, Lu Zhiyu could only make one time space portal.

As for building a permanent space portal, that was very difficult. The most challenging thing was to open the dimensional channel, while keeping it stable at the same time.

After the last space portal that had been running for nearly a month exploded in the floating city, Lu Zhiyu finally gave up making a permanent space portal, at least temporarily.

Regardless, Maria's World was currently committed first and foremost to ocean exploration. Since the end of the first war for maritime power, the Mermaid Kingdom had become dominant kingdom that ruled over the sea. Even the Kingdom of Rosa d'Oro, the Kingdom of Mara, and the Sean City State Alliance had to sign a covenant with the Mermaid Kingdom after their defeats.

The Hailuga Kingdom, which occupied the Balaster Islands, grew over the decades and became a powerful maritime power by relying on the sea's resources. The Hailuga Kingdom then developed the first marine warship that was powered by a propeller. It even built steel-made alchemy vessels, various artillery, and warships. With the coming era welcoming the booming industry of steel alchemy weapons, human beings were fighting to conquer the entire sea.

At the same time, the oceans had gradually been divided into several major areas. This was was because the small islands and sea areas that were not valued by the kingdoms before had gradually been taken more seriously by them.

Maritime force had also become an important facet of the nation's strength. As such, trade and economic activities on the sea had strongly promoted the increasing pace of progress in all of the kingdoms.

At this time, an adventurous fleet from the Hailuga Kingdom crossed the Stormy Sea and the Bazaar Sea, then headed for the distant western world. This fleet consisted mostly of ordinary ships, having only one special steel-made alchemy warship that was owned by the Hailuga Kingdom. On top of the warship, many of the latest alchemy cannons stood watch over the crew and passengers.

At present, the Hailuga Kingdom was still unable to produce the alchemy warships in large quantities. This was because each warship needed at least one or more high-level alchemists to control it.

The fleet left the Bazaar Sea and sailed west for nearly half a month. Along the way, it encountered a group of sea monsters and occasional attacks from the Children of the Sea.

The group had come here after being ordered by the royal family of the Hailuga Kingdom to search for the traitor of the Mermaid Kingdom, the sahagin alchemist Bobby. It was said that Bobby knew some important information. The reason they had specifically come here is that some adventurers and pirates in this sea area had claimed that they had seen Bobby here before.

"I heard that Bobby hides on an island nearby. Why can't we find him?" Demone asked.

As the captain of the alchemy warship Freak Wave, the level three alchemist Demone was an influential figure in the Kingdom of Hailuga. As such, he would never have come here if it hadn't been for Bobby.

But, as he had been wandering around for so long, without finding any clues as to where Bobby was hiding, he began to doubt whether he had received some false information.

"Something's just ahead!" A lean navy officer on the watchtower shouted.

"Is it an island?" Demone asked.

"Yes! Wait… No, it's not an island!" The officer on the watchtower had just answered, but he immediately overturned his answer and shouted in a voice that was filled with great excitement, "It's the mainland! Captain, it is definitely not an island! We found a new continent!"

The naval officer looked out into the distance. Through the fog, he saw the distant continent slowly emerging from the surface of the sea water. As the ship approached, the continent grew bigger and bigger.

"We found the New World! God! This will become a legend that will forever be recorded in history! This is a new world that has never been discovered before!" one of the crew members exclaimed.

At this point, the whole crew was getting excited. They rushed to the deck and looked into the distance. Everyone was flushed with excitement. They were even hugging each other and dancing together!

They couldn't wait to put the flag of the Kingdom of Hailuga on this new land. As the discoverers of the new world, they would become the heroes of the whole world.

Then, they would have honor, money, and numerous beauties eyeing them! Demone was also very excited. Even if he was a level three alchemist, it would have been difficult for him to gain such a high reputation as the discoverer of a brand new world!

As the ship approached the land, they heard a loud bang. Thereafter, the land land and the sea both rolled violently. Even the alchemy warship was tossed about violently, causing the people on the ship to lose their balances and fall on the deck.

"What happened?" Demone asked.

"Look over there! Fire… A big fire!" The naval officer was clearly frightened.

All of those onboard turned to the direction of the fire, where strong flames and black smoke was erupting from a chimney-like mountain pass, then rushing into the sky. They could also see lava flowing through the area. Even the mountain peak was burning!

Demone immediately recognized it. "It's just a volcanic eruption! Don't make a fuss!"

The volcanic eruption caused huge smoke and dust to burst out into the sky, and even a fire rain fell over the sky. Sparks flew in all directions, which tremendously shocked everyone. This immense display of the power of nature made them all afraid.

At this time, Demone felt a sense of uneasiness.

"Did you hear anything?" the mate next to him asked.

Demone raised his head and replied, "No, but turn around… Let's get out of here!"

As soon as Demone looked up, he saw several black shadows flying towards him from the volcano. Those shadows had huge wings, shining scales, and fiercely evil eyes.

"Dragon! It's a dragon…No…It's a group of dragons! Let's get out of here!"

"How could there be so many?"

"Did we discover the dragon's nest?"

Everyone felt a tremor as they began shouting all at once. For human beings, whenever dragons were mentioned in all of the stories and legends, they were mostly depicted as being evil and horrible monsters. At this moment, such monsters appeared in a large group and rushed right at them!

"We can't run away. They've caught up with us!" The officer felt hopeless.

"Shoot the dragons!" Demone demanded.

Several adult dragons and more than twenty young dragons surrounded them. When the dragons waved their wings, the sea under them was instantly frozen.

Dozens of giant dragons spewed flames around the warship, while their claws tore the iron sheet of the warship, as if they were tearing a thin piece of paper. The warship's golden cannons bombarded the dragons, but could only cause them minor injuries. In fact, except for Captain Demone's ability to hurt these monsters, the others were simply like food on the table for the dragons!

The alchemists used the ship as a fortress and attacked the dragons constantly, while trying to escape. But, as the whole sea was frozen by the dragons, they were completely trapped. In the end, all of them were burned in a sea of fire or eaten directly by the dragons.

Alas, what was perceived as being an invincible naval fleet of the Kingdom of Hailuga was actually so fragile when facing such monsters. Perhaps if there had just been a single dragon, they might have had the chance to resist. But, as soon as a crowd of such monsters surrounded them, their sad fates were sealed.

In year 1909 of the San Calendar, the volcanic dragon island was discovered for the first time by human beings. This marked the official year that the giant dragons first appeared in Maria's World.

Chapter 317: God of Dragon

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Zhiyu's floating city had been reconstructed several times. By now, its diameter had reached 10 kilometers and it was nearly 100 square kilometers. As such, it floated in the astral like a dazzling star.

Its whole body was made of extraordinary metal cells that were connected to Eva's awareness. In a sense, this floating city was Eva's Divine Kingdom. However, it was not bound by any rules of the world.

At the moment, Lu Zhiyu was thinking about those who would reach level eight. If they preferred the divine system, they could have the astral Divine Kingdom that was formed of extraordinary metal cells, then acquire the level eight divine life form template (divine personality) and manage the kingdom according to the bitwall rules.

If they preferred the wizard system, they could build a divine floating city (a level eight floating castle of an alchemical lifeform) and acquire the level eight divine life form template. Both of them would be extremely powerful and be equally matched in strength!

All of the gods except for Kelly, Verthandi, and Delmedi relied on Lu Zhiyu's power. Without Lu Zhiyu's support, only Kelly would be able to maintain level seven, while the other gods would fall from the divine throne in an instant.

But, in the wizard system, it was much more difficult to reach level eight. An example of this difficulty was Edward, who was the strongest wizard, as he was only at level five currently! At this current level, Edward was clearly was far from being able to ignite the divine fire and ascend the throne, not to mention being able to create his own floating city!

After all, a level eight mythical alchemy floating city required a tremendous amount of resources and knowledge, as well as strong mind power. This made creating one far more difficult than those within the divine system that Lu Zhiyu had built for Maria's World.

To provide some perspective, it had taken two hundred years for Lu Zhiyu to build this floating city! This was not surprising, as the whole floating city was a huge alchemical lifeform. As such, it had the rule and power of a level eight mythical template, as well as a great power source and a floating ring. It even had dozens of plasma cannons and laser guns.

There was no limit to the power that a laser beam could carry. In principle, if one could stably control enough powerful energy, he or she could integrate the energy of the entire solar system into a very powerful laser beam. In fact, a gamma laser beam was probably the most powerful force in the universe after the Big Bang!

However, the laser cannons that were dismantled by Lu Zhiyu from the Hope of the Atlantis Civilization were not powerful enough, as they used a reactor to produce countless X-rays, then concentrated them into a single beam. However, if multiple cannons of this type were shot at the same time, they could still manage to make a continent sink.

Although Lu Zhiyu's floating city had the power to destroy a continent, it was still a long way from being able to destroy a star.In fact, star destroying power was something that Lu Zhiyu had desired for a long time.

As for the power of their scientific and technological civilization, it was unimaginable! Its destructive power far exceeded the mythical creatures'. However, even though the system of mythical life could fully accommodate scientific and technological civilization, this system, which was based on level promotion, kind of restrained science and technology, too.

After watching the war between the Atlantis Civilization and the Dark Mother Tree, Lu Zhiyu found that the scientific and technological civilization had no resistance to the high-level mythical creature. Maybe this was because the Atlantis Civilization hadn't reached the advanced level of the scientific and technological civilization.

Or, maybe there would soon be a divine scientific and technological civilization, which could use causal law weapons, modify cosmic constants, create a genuine perpetual machine to grasp infinite energy and travel freely in time and space! Perhaps then it could fully transfer virtual reality into actual reality and manipulate dimensional power at will!

Lu Zhiyu thought about the pros and cons of the two civilizations, as well as what might be in their futures. In the end, he couldn't tell which one was better.

At this point, there is no tangible difference between the two choices. Aren't mythical creatures themselves part of the civilization? Maybe it should be called the mythical creature civilization?

In his floating city, besides Lu Zhiyu and Eva, there were fairies and the intelligent Fairy Trees. At the moment, Lu Zhiyu lay in the witchcraft garden, while the fountain beside him rushed water to the sky. This was a witchcraft garden, after all!

Eva picked some sweet fruits that had been planted by the fairies and sat down beside Lu Zhiyu. She looked at him with her chin in her hand and suddenly asked, "Master, what is the name of our floating city?"

Lu Zhiyu was stunned. "Isn't it just called 'The floating city of Lu Zhiyu?'"

Eva looked at Lu Zhiyu and said nothing. Lu Zhiyu smiled back, then said, "Call it the 'Capital of God.' After all, that painting by the painter named Lars is very good. I like it!"

At this time, a ray of light fell in the middle of the floating city, which was now officially called the Capital of God. Then, a goddess in a long white dress walked through the hall towards the witchcraft garden.

Not many were granted access to the floating city, which was now in the astral. Only Kelly, Delmedi, and Verthandi could enter through the dimensional door.

This walking goddess was the goddess of the sun, Verthandi, who had just walked up through numerous gardens and jungles. She knew that Lu Zhiyu would be here.

This witchcraft garden had been rebuilt according to the same design and resources of the botanical garden. As such, it had always been the paradise the her and Delmedi escaped to in the days of their childhood. Naturally, she was very familiar with everything here.

When Verthandi came in, she looked at Lu Zhiyu, who was lying on a bench. Delmedi had developed this same relaxed habit of Lu Zhiyu's completely, while Verthandi always stood or sat straight up, just like a female knight.

"You're back!" Lu Zhiyu called out to Verthandi.

"Well, yes!" Verthandi replied.

When Verthandi sat down, she said to Lu Zhiyu, "Dragon Island has been found. Upon it, were crowds of giant dragons, a large number of adult dragons, and even very young baby dragons. For the world, this poses a very real and unstable threat. What do you think should be done about this mess you left behind, Daddy?"

Lu Zhiyu picked up some fruit from the dish and replied, "I could arrange a dragon god to restrain them."

Verthandi thought for a moment, then asked, "Who would you choose for this position?"

Lu Zhiyu whistled. At that moment, a huge creature with jewel-like scales landed in the witchcraft garden! It was the Titan Dragon Adolphus that had been transformed by Lu Zhiyu and Eva!

"Adolphus, the Dragon of Time!" Verthandi was surprised.

"So, what do you think?" Lu Zhiyu noticed the surprised look on her face.

Verthandi frowned. "But, how could it be Adolphus?"

Seeing Verthandi's scowling face, the cheerful Adolphus, which was originally shouting happily, immediately curled up into a feeble ball-like position.

When Verthandi and Delmedi were young, they had kept it as a pet. As kids will be kids, they weren't above teasing it and chasing it around the garden, leaving it some terrible memories! Now, even though they had all grown up, Adolphus still was afraid of them!

Lu Zhiyu nodded. "Yes, it is. Moreover, it's the candidate! As such, you will take it back to Maria's World. As for how to arrange its ascension to the throne, you can discuss that with the others. After all, you are the gods of Maria's World!"

Chapter 318: The Truth of the World

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Sylve City, Yala Mainland

The elves cleaned up the altar thoroughly, and all of the ancient wizard servants' corpses (the first generation of ant men) were moved together with the altar to the corner of the garden in the eastern part of the palace. At that moment, the ancestral remains in the altar turned into wizard servants, and all of the elves were discussing the corpses that were inside the altar.

Instead of filling up the original altar, Wendy had assigned guards to watch it. The altar was built on the oldest tomb of the elves. Although it wasn't very big inside, the elves all still worshipped the Lord of Natural Order here.

Wendy carried a torch as she went inside the tomb that was under the altar. She looked very dignified and her proud eyes revealed her stubbornness.

She had examined all of the corpses of the wizard servants. She was sure that they were not put in later, but had existed here ever since the birth of the elves. Wendy then read all of the information about the gods and the Lord of Natural Order.

Wendy often read about global history, including the information of the ancient gods. In fact, Wendy read the ancient books day and night, including the histories of human beings, sahagins, and orcs.

This made her brother Wolfe worried, so he always would ask her about it. But, no matter how he much he asked her about it, Wendy remained silent and would not tell Wolfe anything.

Wendy had remained silent because she thought that she had found out a terrible truth, which frightened her very much! Everything she had imagined seemed to have gradually turned into reality!

Currently, in the tomb, Wendy saw a slab that seemed to have some of the the earliest languages of the elves recorded upon it, as well as some of old drawings that clearly depicted the earliest history of the birth of the elves.

"What is this?" Wendy murmured as she looked down at the slab with wide eyes.

As she examined it closer, she saw that this stone slab was quite different from others in regards to material and design. It looked as white as a piece of white jade, but it was laid under the altar along with all of the ordinary slabs.

Wendy brushed away the dust from its surface, revealing complicated patterns underneath. These patterns formed a witchcraft tactical deployment circle!

If Lu Zhiyu had been here, he could have immediately recognized that this was what he had left here! It was used by the wizard servants as a dimensional door, allowing them to come from the dimensional castle to the Forest of Life!

"Witchcraft tactical deployment circle!" Wendy frowned, still murmuring, even though she was alone. "This looks kind of familiar…"

Wendy thought she had seen this tactical deployment circle somewhere before. Wendy carefully watched the tactical deployment circle, then finally remembered its origin and function. Just like the dimensional door tactical deployment circle that was engraved on the tower badge that was given to them by Anthony, as long as it was activated, it could open the dimensional channel to another place!

"Is the truth at the end of the door?" Wendy asked herself.

As her slender fingers brushed the slab some more, every line of the pattern was completely exposed. Then, she instilled her mind power into the tactical deployment circle above the slab.

The slab, which had been left here for many decades, was immediately activated. Its lights flowed around, covered Wendy entirely, then disappeared with Wendy under the altar!

After awhile, when Wendy opened her eyes again, she found that it was a dark world without any light. Yet, she could still see with her mind power.

She saw that she was inside a huge building, and the instant Wendy came, the induction light inside the building had turned on.

She was now inside a long passage, which had a lot of cages on both sides of it. Itn fact, it kind of looked like the prison of the wizard tower.

The light source looked somewhat like a vapor lamp, but Wendy had never seen such an extraordinary vapor lamp before. So, perhaps it was best described as being more like an alchemy lamp.

On top of the door was the number that was taught to them by their mentor, Anthony. In addition, there were a lot of unfamiliar words. Wendy walked all the way to the end of the passageway and found a switch that controlled all of the lamps.

Currently, there was a large hall in front of her, but there was no door to the hall, as it was a building without an exit. A crystal chandelier had apparently fallen in the center of the hall.

It could been be seen from the mass accumulation of dust on the ground that the castle had not been cleaned for a long time. Thus, it was an abandoned castle! Most of the lights in the hall had been damaged, and the rest were faintly flickering. As she walked up the broad steps of the hall, Wendy found that this building was quite similar to the wizard tower.

Upstairs were restaurants, huge pools, lounges, bedrooms, and a huge library that encompassed an entire floor! The library had a variety of books, which were written in human, Phinks, Orcish Sofawk, Tuten and other various languages. There were even more books that were written languages that Wendy had never even heard of!

There were also a lot of delicate alchemy tools that Wendy didn't know much about. They looked like another type of alchemy that Wendy didn't understand. As such, Wendy did not check these very carefully, but went directly to the top of the building

Here, she found a huge botanical garden. Sadly, the plants in the botanical garden had already withered.

Through the top glass window, Wendy could see the intense space storm and the folded space outside. As she peered through the window, various strange scenes appeared in front of her.

Where on earth am I? Am I still in Maria's World?

Everything here made Wendy feel confused. This place didn't belong to the world she knew. She felt a panic rise from the bottom of her heart.

Wendy then checked every corner of the building. Finally, she found the laboratory on the third floor. On a shelf in the laboratory, there were a lot of folders, each of which had accumulated a thick layer of dust over time.

There was a storage room inside the lab, which had a lot of frozen blood, plant seeds, organs, embryos and petri dishes in it. There were all kinds of checks and numbers written on the labels of these things, as well as many scrawled words that Wendy couldn't read.

Wendy left this inner storage room and returned to the laboratory just outside of it. As a wizard who often carried out bloodline transplantation and body remodeling, all the materials here were somewhat familiar to her.

She took some files from the shelf beside her. Although she couldn't read what was written on them, as it was some language she couldn't understand, there were a lot of pictures that she tried to decipher.

It seemed that the information in the files detailed some experiments. As Wendy flipped through the files, she stopped at a familiar picture of a mermaid.

The mermaid in the picture was not formed completely. Instead, it was soaked in liquid and had been placed in a glass jar. Wendy then followed the pictures in succession, which showed that the mermaid was shaped little by little before it grew into a complete mermaid!

From the pictures, Wendy could tell that there were many experimental failures and successes throughout this cultivation process of the mermaids. This was a clearly research and data process information about how the mermaids were bred from a glass jar via a bloodline cultivation method. This was how the mermaids were bred and transformed little by little!

Mermaids! That's how the mermaids were born! They were born here, and in a glass jar!

Wendy could barely believe it! She felt that the world she knew had collapsed in front of her. The truth she had longed to find now seemed so cruel at the moment. It actually frightened her that the mermaids were born this way.

What about others, like the human beings? What about the orcs? Elves?

Wendy then started to flip through all of the folders in a frenzy. As she did so, she saw all kinds of cultivation records and experiments regarding every type of species, including rat men, tiger men, human beings, and even dragon raja, which had apparently been bred from a stone egg!

Next, she pulled out a pamphlet from one of the huge shelves in the middle. As soon as she opened it, a folder fell from inside of it, then fluttered to the ground.

Among the now scattered pages, she stooped down to see a tremendous Tree of Life on a yellowed page. Right beside the tree was a beautiful creature with pointed ears and long hair! There were also a large number of words and figures that were swirling around them!

This was clearly a record of the bloodline cultivation and the production of the elves!

Chapter 319: The Civilization of the New World

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Inside the enormous castle, Wendy saw the information of all of the species inside Maria's World, including data about their civilization, their histories, their origin of lives, and all the way until the birth of their civilization. Wendy seemed to see an aloof being accelerating the development of the entire world, and this world seemed to be a chess game. Everyone inside the world, including the commoners, the nobles, kings, saints, kingdoms, churches and even the gods were only chess pieces in this game.

At the moment, Wendy sat in the botanic garden that was on rooftop of the penthouse, watching the turbulence of the space in the sky. Because of the space ripples, the light that was shot out became bizarre and dazzling, which made it mesmerizing to the naked eye.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of footsteps, then a voice…

"Why are you here?" Lu Zhiyu asked as he helped Wendy up and flipped away the dust on her cape.

As Wendy looked up at Lu Zhiyu, she didn't seem surprised at all that he had showed up here. There were tears dripping from her eyes, which looked like those of an angel's as she asked, "So, have I discovered your biggest secret?"

She then asked, "Creator, my lord? Faross, my lord? Or… Lord of Natural Order?"

As Wendy finished talking, she was almost yelling, and her eyes were filled with distrust for Lu Zhiyu. Wendy had the best temper out of all Lu Zhiyu's students, and nobody had ever seen her flip out on anyone. However, she was also the most stubborn one. Still, Lu Zhiyu could never have imagined that she would be yelling at him like this!

"Which one is the real you? Who are you? My teacher, the Great Wise, Anthony!" Wendy kept exclaiming.

The giant botanic garden seemed hollow, and most of the LED plant lights that resembled the light of the sun had been broken. Lu Zhiyu sat down beside a lab table, and there were pen holders and bookends scattered everywhere on the ground. It had been a long time since Lu Zhiyu was last here, yet this place had already become familiar to him now.

"Every one of those parts is me! To you, I will always be your teacher!" Lu Zhiyu exclaimed.

Lu Zhiyu and Wendy talked with each other for a long time. In the end, Wendy chose to leave this world like the civilization of sorcerers. She decided to take Sylve Fairy World to Starsoul World.

Before she left, Wendy kissed the Lu Zhiyu's cheek and told him, "I don't want to live in a dream that you programmed, and I don't want to live my life knowing that my future has already been determined by you! My creator, my lord!"

The giant door that was over a hundred feet tall looked like a mountain from afar. The enormous space transportation door was inside Sylve City, and many fairies and sorcerers gathered beside it.

Many war ancient trees became tree persons, which were carrying goods and materials as they passed through the space transportation door. The Sylve Empire even built two tracks in front of the transportation door, and one train after another travelled through the space transportation door. They then traveled through the light screen that looked like whirlpools, finally arriving at the other end of the world through the narrow dimensional channel.

At the other end of the world, many fairies were receiving those who were traveling across the world and planning the construction of their new homeland. It was a world that was completely different from Maria's World, including the rules and speed of time flow.

As for the new continent they were going to settle upon, it was comparatively desolate. But, this was not a problem at all for the Sylve Kingdom, as the Sylve Kingdom was best at creating forests, reconstructing the environment, and building a city of sorcerers.

Mountains of goods and materials were transported through the railways, while groups of fairies went through the space transportation door. The entire Sylve Kingdom looked empty now. The usual hustle and bustle ceased on the Yala Continent, and it felt empty now.

After half a month, many merchant ships from the human world and mermaid kingdom arrived on the Yala Continent and were about to trade with Haig in the Sylve Kingdom. That is, until they found out that all of the hundreds of thousands of fairies from the fairy kingdom had disappeared completely and were nowhere to be found. There were only empty fairy villages and cities left in the kingdom.

All of a sudden, everyone from the once-powerful fairy kingdom was gone, and nobody was able to find any of them. The entire world was shocked.

Human beings, mermaids, and other fairies were all trying to find the lost Sylve fairy kingdom, as well as figure out why they had gone missing. Everyone was shocked by how the fairy kingdom had just vanished in one night.

As for the moon fairy tribe and the son fairy tribe, they both sent fairies to inspect the territory of the Sylve Kingdom, and they couldn't find any forest fairy left in the enormous Forest of Life. As for the villages, the towns, the cities and the capital city of Sylve, they were all completely empty now, and all of the important things were gone as well. Obviously, this was a planned migration.

Yet, no one knew where they had gone, as nobody could find them anywhere. The only sign that they could find was a gigantic hole that was the result of an explosion. The powerful force had annihilated half of the capital city of Sylve.

That sign triggered discussions in all of the kingdoms, and everyone was talking about the Sylve fairy kingdom. There were all sorts of theories formulated to explain how they had gone missing and what they had encountered.

As such, the human beings, fairies, poets and novelists all made up all kinds of stories, which spread throughout the entire world. As for those born later, they could only look at the remains of the Sylve fairy kingdom with reverence, as that was the only way that they could witness a once-prosperous and powerful fairy kingdom.

As for the Sylve fairy kingdom, they migrated to a continent in the vast Astral World under Wendy's lead. Those in Maria's World who Lu Zhiyu valued and cared about had various fates. Some of them became gods, while others left that world completely.

Lu Zhiyu gradually became less and less familiar with Maria's World, as everyone that he actually cared about and valued was gone.

"It's a good thing. With the rules of Maria's World being shaped anew, that world is getting more and more stable, which means there are fewer opportunities and less freedom," Lu Zhiyu said.

He then added, "The more stable a world is, the greater the binding power its rules possess. To the ordinary people and the saints, this is a good thing. The more stable a world is, the safer that world will be. Thus, the perfection of rules and orders can offer protection for the people."

He then said, "However, to sorcerers who pursue truth and freedom, this world feels like a cage. Besides, the world is just going to get more stable, so it'll be a world that is completely locked."

Lu Zhiyu was standing at the edge of the Floating-space City, and outside the Floating-space City was the dark and cold astral world, which was so dark and hollow that others couldn't even see the end of it. However, Lu Zhiyu seemed to be able to see through the space and catch a glimpse of the Starsoul World.

"What kind of civilizations will the sorcerers and fairy kingdoms establish in that part of the realm? And… How are they going to distinguish it from the Divine World?" he wondered aloud.

Chapter 320: Goddess of Steam and Machine

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In City Alliance of Sheehan, the City of Tephis was close to the coastline. There were many ships anchored in the harbor, including merchant ships and warships.

Although there were still many sailing boats at the wharf, they were being gradually replaced by the new steam boats that were powered by screw propellers. Currently, the ships that were arriving at the harbor gave out the sounds of sirens, which painted the image of the steam era. As for the black smoke that was coming out of the ships' chimneys, it was a scene that many kingdoms on the Alen Continent desired but could never attain.

The most attractive part of the harbor was an enormous iron warship that was anchored there. That iron warship was more than two hundred feet long, so only steam machines with magic reinforcements were able to sail it out to the ocean.

There were a lot of rivets and signs of assembly on the shining outer case of the ship. There were also a lot of flexible alchemy barbettes, whose muzzles could swirl.

Today was the day that the first iron alchemy warship in the City Alliance of Sheehan would be launched. A ig ceremony was being held, and many people were there, carrying the flag of City Alliance of Sheehan at the wharf and playing military music.

The soldiers were wearing the uniforms of the City Alliance of Sheehan and were standing at the wharf, carrying their rifles and standing in a military formation. The prime minister, the master of Tephis, and various navy officials were all giving speeches in front of the soldiers.

There were well-dressed royal gentlemen, ladies, and teenagers of the new era there as well, all of whom were dressed very fashionably. They were all waving their flags and cheering, while standing in their carriages.

There were carpets and flowers on the ground, and numerous journalists and commoners had come here to watch the show as well. With the performance of the military music and the waving of countless flags, it was quite a scene!

Everything seemed to prosper here, and everyone seemed busy and enthusiastic. The changes that had been brought about by the steam era and high-tech machines had paved the way for the City Alliance of Sheehan to become a powerful country on this continent, both on the land and on the ocean!

The prime minister of the City Alliance of Sheehan said during his speech, "We can see the future of the world here!"

After the ceremony was over, many navy soldiers boarded the first iron alchemy ship Legendary Adventurer. The name of this ship was the same as the first ship that Marina Bosa had used to travel the world.

Naming the ship this same name was a salute to Marina Bosa, who started this era and finished that legendary journey. With the sound of a siren, the Legendary Adventurer officially started its first sailing mission!

As for the commoners at the shore, they were yelling and shouting with joy and exhilaration. They were all standing at the wharf and waving their flags. The entire wharf was packed with people, while the military music was playing loudly.

"Praise the great Goddess of Steam and Machine!" the people all yelled in unison.

"Long live the great City Alliance of Sheehan!" they all said. "Long live steam and cannons!"

At this moment, a carriage stopped at the harbor, and a beautiful lady wearing a pair of glasses and an alchemy sorcerer cape could be seen through the window. She was watching Legendary Adventurer sail away.

As she opened the curtain in the carriage, if someone looked carefully, he could see that her hands and skin that she had just exposed were glowing! The power of god had penetrated her cells, and the light couldn't help but glow out from her body. The light covered her entire body, and even those she was able to suppress that terrific power, it was still affecting the environment around her.

She was the legendary alchemy sorcerer, Marina Bosa! As she watched Legendary Adventurer sail away, she recalled when she was twenty-years-old. At that time, she had just started to travel around the world because she wanted to help Gina get home.

Back then, she was so passionate and exhilarated, and she could still remember how she felt as she was saying goodbye to those cheering on the ship and at the wharf. Her teacher Akkad was standing at the wharf at that time, looking at her with joy.

She could still remember how her teacher had praised her, saying, "Many people speak bravely, but only few of them act bravely!"

Now, most of her disciples had died since then, and the youngest of these disciples had already betrayed her and had gone away. As for Gina, who later became the queen of the mermaids, she had also drifted away from her.

Gina had already become a god twenty years ago, and she was revered by her god kingdom. Now, she had also attained the position of gods. Hence, the two of them had simply lost touch.

The City Alliance of Sheehan announced that its official belief was the Goddess of Steam and Machine, and as such, there were sacred sculptures and churches of the Goddess of Steam and Machine everywhere. As for the alchemy sorcerers, they all automatically became the disciples and priests of the Goddess of Steam and Machine.

The belief system of the Goddess of Steam and Machine then became a part of all of the families in the City Alliance of Sheehan, which only grew with the popularity of steam, iron, and alchemy objects. A large amount of belief power also gathered on Marina Bosa, which pushed her up to the threshold of the gods.

More than a decade ago, she had summoned the divine personality in the Church of the Goddess of Steam and Machine in Tephis. As such, she just needed to attain level seven in order to summon the star god kingdom and enter her kingdom of gods.

"Time did fly!" Marina Bosa couldn't help exclaiming.

She then added, "Okay, let's go back!"

Upon hearing her order, the black-caped figure riding in the carriage didn't say anything, but immediately rode the horse carriage back. It could be seen from looking at his lower body below the cape that it was a machine alchemy puppet. Specifically, it was Archimonde!

Marina Bosa was about to become a god, so this was probably the last time she would go out before becoming a god. She wasn't sure what her world would be like after it became an official world, but one thing that she was certain of was that gods wouldn't just descend to the mortal world easily.

After all, a being like that showing up in the main world would have a huge impact on the lives and stability of the world! As Marina thought of this and looked around at the scenes in Tephis, everything here triggered her deep memories.

When she was young, the City Alliance of Sheehan was poor and quite backwards. Her hometown was a small fishing town beside Tephis.

Many people wore clothes that couldn't even properly cover their bodies, and they had to endure the exploitation of the royal families. They struggled to survive with the paltry sustenance that their infertile soil provided, while living as if they were in an ancient era.

However, there were now ships all over the ocean, stretching to the horizon. The original alchemy warship Legendary Adventurer was long gone, and the era of iron and steam was about to come. There was even a railway train that was powered by steam on the streets, carrying groups of people.

The engines of the trains were always carrying two to three carriages as they traveled through the city. They had even replaced the original horse buggies!

"Boarding soon! Boarding soon!" they conductors would call out.

"The train is about to go!" the people said!

"Let's buy the tickets first!" everyone exclaimed as they ran to catch the trains!

The streets were busy, and although there was still a sizable income inequality among the people and numerous slums still existed, this era was much better than the one before it had been. Railways now covered all of the major cities, and the sirens on the steamed vehicles were always sounding, echoing throughout cities of all sizes within the City Alliance of Sheehan's workshops, alchemy workshops, and everywhere else.

Industrial workers soon became the largest group in the City Alliance of Sheehan, as their number had far exceeded that of farmers. There were also goods and markets of all sorts in the city.

There were also more people in the city, and the buildings were getting taller and taller. New things and new ideas kept flooding this place, changing everyone's lifestyles and perceptions of the world. This all came about because of the alchemy sorcerers.

Akkad Alchemy College and the knowledge that it had brought had only been influencing the City Alliance of Sheehan for about two hundred years, yet it had completely reshaped the city already. Marina Bosa, as the successor of Akkad, was the culmination of the era of steam and alchemy, its pride and joy.

At this moment, both the alchemy sorcerers and the City Alliance of Sheehan needed a Goddess of Steam and Machine. They needed a god that would bless them in the era of the god kingdom, and they also needed a god that would protect them. In short, Marina was the exact Goddess of Steam and Machine they needed!

As Marina Bosa looked at the new era that she and her teacher had brought about, she smiled. "It was all worth it!" she exclaimed.

She then added, "As long as I can become a god, then the alchemy sorcerers will have a god of their own. I will protect this era that belongs to steam and alchemy."

Several years later, during a sacrificial ceremony for the Goddess of Steam and Machine in Tephis, along with the sound of cannons and guns that were used for salutation, the giant star god kingdom showed up in the sky of Tephis and an immense light was cast upon the Church of Goddess of Steam and Machine.

At the same time, an enormous shadow of gods showed up in Tephis. While enjoying the admiration and cheers from all of her believers, Marina Bosa ascended to the kingdom that belonged to her.

Chapter 321: Master Kingdom

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As Edward lowered his head and looked through the glass windows in the airship, he could see the landmark building, King's Tower, in the Kelermo Kingdom. The airship flew above the kingdom, carrying more than thirty wizards in white capes, who were all looking at the city through the glass windows.

"We've toured the Yala Continent for a week now. Though there seem to be some minor issues, nothing major was found. It seems that we've made it," Edward said to the wizard beside him.

The wizard standing beside Edward looked old, but he was actually a student of Edward's. However, he looked more like Edward's grandfather.

He turned to Edward and said, "This will be an important step toward humans conquering the sky!"

All of these people were Edward's juniors, who were all following him. Edward was a fifth-session graduate from the Wizard Tower, and he was a living legend to all of them, not to mention the fact that he was a level-five wizard. To these people, he was the god of wizards.

At the moment, Edward was focusing all of his attention on the airship and the Kelermo Kingdom that was below it. They had already given up the Wizard Tower for the Yala Continent, and this was the last fight for the wizards.

Originally, the airship was able to fly in the sky, but could only fly for a very short distance and quite slowly. Though this still made the airshop somewhat helpful, it wasn't useful enough to be popularized and sold on the mainstream market.

In order to improve the airship, an alchemy steam machine with magic reinforcement was loaded on to the airship, which allowed the airship to fly much faster through the sky, and it could also fly for a longer distance and time.

These new airships were already able to fly across entire countries, and in the future, the airships might even be able to fly across the ocean. However, what was surprising was that the first alchemy airship that was capable of such a feat wasn't created in the City Alliance of Sheehan where there were alchemy wizards everywhere. Instead, it was created in the Kelermo Kingdom, which was established only a short time ago and was far from the human Alen Continent.

The airship traveled all around the entire Alen Continent, and at the same time, those airships from the Kelermo Kingdom were also traveling around, drawing the map of the entire Alen Continent. When these airships arrived at the tribe of sun fairies and moon fairies, they stopped to talk with the representatives in their capital cities.

At the moment, fairies and humans shared a peaceful relationship, although many fairies thought that the Kelermo Kingdom's establishment on the Alen Continent was an intrusion to their fairy world. During all of these years, the Kelermo Kingdom had established and maintained the diplomatic and peaceful relations with the sun fairies and the moon fairies, and the trade and state visits between those countries were getting more and more frequent.

Those from the Kelermo Kingdom were also friendly with the fairies, which gave them a peace union and brought them opportunities to settle on this continent. With the era of the Ocean approaching, the Kelermo Kingdom was experiencing a time of great prosperity.

As the airship flew across the cities in the fairy kingdom, all of the fairies were looking up at the giant object that was about to land, their faces filled with awe. This was the first time that they had seen an alchemy vehicle that could allow humans and objects to fly through the sky.

The emblem of the Kelermo Kingdom that was on the airship could clearly be seen by all of the commoners in all of the cities and villages, and they were all cheering as the airship passed above them. Finally, the airship was back at the capital city, and there were people everywhere.

They were gathered beside the King Tower, standing on the street, and looking out from the top of the tower. Everyone was waving at the airship excitedly and shouting joyfully…

"Long live the king!"

"Long live the Parliament of Wizards!"

"Welcome back, officials of the Parliament of Wizards!"

"This was a very successful journey! The great king and the officials of the Parliament of Wizards had a peaceful and efficient meeting with the sun fairies and the moon fairies in the fairy kingdom!"

As the airship landed on the square, the people on both sides of the square were all pushing and squeezing toward the middle of the square. They were shouting the names of the members from the Parliament of Wizards and Edward, the name of their king.

The soldiers were carrying rifles, standing on the square and acting as a protective barrier so that the commoners wouldn't get too close to the members and the king. As Edward and the wizards walked down from the airship, they were all waving their hands passionately at the commoners, and the scene looked very peaceful and harmonious.

The commoners were all enthusiastic, and countless young boys and girls were smiling. Many of the people were even throwing their hats into the sky in celebration.

"I've just seen King Edward!" a girl with freckles on her face shouted in excitement.

"Long live the God of Truth and Knowledge!" A middle-aged carpenter, who had a lot of calluses on his hands, exclaimed.

"I want to become a powerful wizard in the future!" a child exclaimed as he was going to sign up for the Wizard College.

Here, wizards were not feared or marginalized as they were in the human world, so everyone here was looking forward to becoming a wizard with great expectation. After moving to the Yala Continent, Edward had already given up using the official title of "wizard," which had negative connotations. Instead, he he adopted the more neutral name of "master."

Edward had also reshuffled the entire wizard organization, getting rid of the previous customs of the wizards not having contacts with the outer world. From then on, they started to integrate with the human world, even trying to take the leadership roles within it.

Based on their own wizard ways and their experiences from other kingdoms, they wanted to build a kingdom for masters. They also changed the original wizard custom capes from grey and black to white ones.

In the Kelermo Kingdom, the members from the Parliament of Masters had the greatest power. Wizards who used to have the impression of being gloomy and hiding in dark castles and forests suddenly became brighter after they started to don white capes. They suddenly became saints in the sunshine, who everyone aspired to be!

Most of those who were descending from the airship were the main members of the parliament, and they were also the controllers of the Kelermo Kingdom. They were running the kingdom using the rules of the Parliament of Masters, and the entire kingdom felt like it was a combination of wizard organizations and wizards.

Here, the masters were the controllers of the kingdom, and everyone in the kingdom wanted to become a master, no matter how old they were. When they talked about masters, their eyes would sparkle with hope and joy.

As for the novels that were written in the kingdom, many of the epic heroes within them were based on the heroic backgrounds of the masters themselves. Thus, becoming a master, saving the world, and marrying a princess was the dream of all children and was tantamount to becoming a member of the Parliament of Masters.

As for Edward, he established a master college in the capital city of the kingdom, which was open to everyone in the country as long as they were qualified. Everyone in the kingdom went crazy over that college and all wanted to attend it. If someone was deemed qualified to be a master, even just an apprentice, they would then be able to become one of the royal members in the future.

Just as Edward walked out from the airship, a teenager immediately walked toward him and reported everything that was going on in the country, as well as their important political plans for the future. He also reported some of the important foreign issues of the day to Edward.

Hearing all of this made Edward yearn for the information system of the Wizard Tower in the past. That intelligence system was constructed by numerous wind ravens, libraries, and the sphinx, all of which could funnel him information about the world in the shortest period of time.

However, when they were retreating from the tower, the wind ravens and the sphinx were unwilling to leave. Edward couldn't even take away the red dragon, which had the greatest potential in the Wizard Tower. This had made Edward quite sad.

As he heard one specific piece of news, Edward suddenly raised his head and asked for confirmation, "The Goddess of Steam and Machine, Marina Bosa, was summoned to go to the kingdom of gods?"

Others might have heard this news and assumed that someone major had died, yet since Edward knew that the Goddess of Steam and Machine was Marina Bosa, he quickly understood that this piece of news meant that Marina Bosa had inherited the position of a god, making her the latest person to become a god after the Master of Night!

Edward went back to his palace and entered his study, where he immediately summoned all of the members from the Parliament of Masters.

"We've already publicized the belief of the God of Truth and Knowledge long enough time, and that belief system has been ingrained in everyone's heart already. Also, our population base is quickly increasing. Hence, it's time to ignite the godly fire and summon the divine personality," he said.

"Which day should we choose for the event?" one of the members asked.

"Let's make it the same day that the master college expands. We'll make it a grand ceremony!" Edward said.

After Edward settled on that issue, he immediately moved on to another vital issue as he asked, "How is the process of setting and amending the master system going?"

An old wizard, who was sitting beside him, immediately responded, "We followed the system of divine incantation and have already built the structure. Thus, it can continue after you ignite the godly fire. We'll give up the original system and shift our focus to the godly power of truth and knowledge. We'll then establish a new system of masters and publicize our master college!"

The old wizard then added, "And… After it is spreads to all of the master colleges, the masters of further generations will create a new era of masters that centers around the God of Truth and Knowledge."

Chapter 322: God of Truth and Knowled

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The God of Truth and Knowledge, also called the God of Master, was a path that Edward chose for himself. As for the future wizards, just like in the future masters, they would all be believers of the God of Truth and Knowledge.

"There will no longer be blood wizards, dream wizards, element wizards or sector masters!" Edward said.

He then added, "As for blood witchcraft, dream witchcraft, and other forms of witchcraft, they will all become elements of the entire master system. As such, they will be the witchcrafts that people study and conduct research on. They will, from now on, only be the categories of knowledges of different witchcrafts, and there won't be strict definitions like there have been before any longer."

He paused, then concluded, "Everyone will practice witchcraft using the witchcraft book that was bestowed upon us by the God of Truth and Knowledge. In this way, a whole new system will be revealed to everyone in the world!"

The Book of Masters was the most important element in the wizard system, which was built by the Kelermo Kingdom. After Edward had ignited the godly fire, he had used his godly power that belonged to the God of Truth and Knowledge to create the book. As such, the book was like the seed from which divine incantation of the God of Truth and Knowledge sprouted.

It was a very important element of the God of Truth and Knowledge, and only the masters who held the Book of Masters were able to practice witchcraft. It was completely bound to the master system by the God of Truth and Knowledge to be used on the road to belief.

The benefits of the book's spreading throughout the kingdom were that many people who wouldn't otherwise be exposed to the magic network or weren't qualified suddenly had the chance to practice witchcraft and become masters themselves. Thus, the number of masters surged.

Due to this, it was much easier to find apprentices to become wizards than ever before. In the past, it was difficult to find a mere handful, even after searching the entire continent!

After Edward made a decision, he leaned on the chair in his study as he looked out the window. Then, he suddenly recalled the time when he had just became a wizard.

Back then, he had disdained the gods. He had thought that the gods and the god kingdoms were all made up. It was ironic that he was about to become a god himself now!

Regarding his decision, some wizards thought that the reasoning behind it was that the wizards had finally thrown off their previous shackles and were ready to step forward to a new future. But, some other people thought Edward was basically the gravedigger of all of the wizards, as the path and spirits of wizards had been carried on for hundreds of years thus far, and now, because of him, they had withered away during his generation.

As for Edward, during his time as the tower master of the Wizard Tower of the fourth generation and the last generation, he had witnessed how the Wizard Tower had died out under his leadership. In fact, the minute that the news that the entire tower had disappeared reached his ears, Edward laid low for a couple of days, believing that it was all his fault.

After all, he was the person who had inherited the master of tower title from Akkad, and he was also thought to be the successor of Bohr Kelermo. So, now that the tower had disappeared under his watch, he felt an immense sense of shame and guilt.

Recently, Edward always felt that he could see the shadow of his teacher, Bohr Kelermo, as well as the shadows of the wizards of the first generation. In his visions, they were all staring at him in silence.

During this time, Edward couldn't have possibly felt more ashamed. Since wizards weren't capable of having dreams, everything he felt was the direct manifestation of how he really thought and felt about his current situation.

"Masters are wizards and wizards are masters! Wizards will innovate and transform as each generation passes. Now, it's a new generation, which means that it's time for wizards to advance and transform ourselves!" Edward declared.

He then added, "And… This time, the masters of the new generations will get rid of all of the restrictions from before, stepping forward and leading this era into a new future!"

As Edward yelled at the walls of his study in excitement, at this moment, he sensed that a familiar being was gazing at him in his house. He was faintly aware that this was his old teacher, Bohr Kelermo!

All of a sudden, he lost his steadiness and became like a child. In a panic, he exclaimed, "Teacher, I didn't do anything wrong! This is supposed to be the future for the wizards, and I am in the right!"

Edward looked out of the window and saw all of the people walking around in the bustling city outside. Many camelids that were nurtured and reconstructed by wizards were walking on the street.

Many witch towers could be seen, having been built all around the capital city, and the witchcraft boundary that was coming out of the wizard towers enveloped the entire capital city. Many master apprentices were walking out of the master colleges. They just entered the master colleges and had started to receive their educations in witchcraft, so they were all smiling with hope and great expectations.

Only as he saw all of this progress and goodness did Edward finally calm himself and say, "Is is only by becoming a god that I can protect the path and the future of wizards! If I can become a god, the threshold to becoming a wizard will be lowered. Then, masters who hold the Book of Masters will spread that information to the entire world. They will then inherit the future and the consciousness of wizards. This will be the future of the wizards."

After several months, the expansion of the college and the ceremony of the God of Truth and Knowledge ignited the entire Kelermo Kingdom with a passion that was infectious! As all of the master towers opened their witchcraft boundaries, the eastern capital that was usually sultry during the summer days suddenly became pleasantly cool.

As the witchcraft fireworks surged into the sky, many students rushed here from the country towns in the Kelermo Kingdom to enroll in the master college. There were also merchant groups and believers present, all of whom were about to join the ceremony for the God of Truth and Knowledge. Needless to say, Bohr City was packed with people!

There were masters in white capes everywhere in the city. They were posting fliers about the teachings of the God of Truth and Knowledge, which had been printed by the alchemy printer. Through the wonderful power of the masters, the mightiness of the god was imprinted in the hearts of all of the people.

The enormous light screen that enveloped the entire city could be seen from the sky here, as could the standing master towers. There were masters practicing all forms of witchcraft as well, and as far as the eye could see were camelids, appaloosas, witchcraft tools, enslaved witchcraft servants and pipi demons!

Moreover, the magic potion of witchcraft had miraculous effects on people. It could activate the bloodline of a knight and cure all forms of diseases. Those who saw the miracles that were brought by the potion attributed them to the great God of Truth and Knowledge, and at that moment, everyone who saw the miracles became a disciple of the God of Truth and Knowledge.

During the nonstop ceremony that lasted for more than half a month, the power of belief from several cities and many countries around the capital city was gathered here in the capital city. Kelermo had now finally gathered enough power of belief and transformed his body of godly characteristics, which enabled him to successfully ignite the godly fire and gain a godly name of his own!

The gigantic shadow showed up in the church of the God of Truth and Knowledge, which was at the center. Amid the prayers of the white-caped masters and the permeating smoke of witchcraft spells, a new god showed up in front of everyone. He was holding the Book of Masters.

This scene made everyone in Bohr City go crazy. Everyone was shouting the new godly name of the God of Truth and Knowledge.

The syllables of the godly name were very difficult to pronounce, yet the people did not let this deter them, and the sound of their shouting echoed throughout the entire Bohr City, resounding everywhere and forming the name of Truth.

More than ten days later, the star god kingdom showed up in the sky. Then, the divine personality left the star god kingdom and fell from the sky.

Under the guard of many wizards and the protection of more than ten master towers, it safely fell within the territory of Kelermo Kingdom and merged with the enormous godly shadow.

In this way, the God of Truth and Knowledge was chosen, and the system of masters had been perfected as well. The originally powerful and mysterious wizards had disappeared, being replaced by masters who held the Book of Masters and believed in the God of Truth and Knowledge.

At the moment, these masters were walking to the front stage…

Chapter 323: God of Agreement and Justice

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Aside from the godly fire ceremony that was taking place on in the Kelermo Kingdom, far away, at the end of the ocean, the same ceremony was taking place in an orc kingdom's Colossus College, which was established at the same time as the Kelermo Kingdom.

Although there were some ripples that occurred, Felix had still been able to successfully transform the body of divine characteristics. However, he had given up on the idea of summoning the divine personality to the world.

In the Hailuga Kingdom, which was on the ocean, the belief of the Master of Storm had spread throughout the entire ocean, distinguishing itself from the God of the Sea that the sahagins believed in. The God of Sea was in control of the sea, while the Master of Storm was in charge of the storms and all other natural catastrophes. As such, there was a clear demarcation line between humans and sahagins based on these different belief systems.

With the emergence of gods and new religions and belief systems, the power and influence of the gods had quickly spread to every corner of the world. They now covered the world like intertwined threads.

At the moment, a light shadow arrived from the distant outer space. An enormous beast was flying toward the west end of the world. The scales on its body looked like gemstones, and they were reflecting the light, making a prismatic effect that looked like a beautiful rainbow.

It was mesmerizing creature that seemed as if it should only exist in myths. Its entire body seemed to be made of gemstones. Its body was streamline-shaped, and it had a long neck and a crystal mask on its head.

As its giant wings flapped in mid-air, the gusting sound of wind was thunderous. This was a dragon that was completely different from those found in Maria's World.

This dragon was as large as a small hill, and there seemed to be a dimming shadow on its back. This shadow was actually a teenage girl, who looked like a beautiful angel. Her blonde hair gleamed in the sunlight, and a magical light seemed to be dancing on her skin as well.

She was a god, and as she was riding the gemstone dragon, she seemed to be patrolling the world and the kingdom that she now managed. The force that was coming from the giant dragon and this teenage girl god quieted even the ocean. Even the monsters that lived in the nearby mountains and seas, no matter how ferocious they were, ran and hid themselves deeper into the islands or the ocean in fear.

"Adolphus! Why are not there yet? Hurry up! You're too slow!" Verthandi urged the giant gemstone dragon Adolphus to quicken the pace.

"Relax, I am the fastest dragon you could ever find. We're almost there, Verthandi, my lord!" Adolphus said to placate Verthandi. It didn't have the personality of a giant dragon, but acted more like a doting puppy instead.

At this moment, Adolphus was enjoying being ridden by Verthandi, so it was smirking and cheering as they flew. When Verthandi and Delmedi were still kids, they used to sit on Adolphus' back just like that, while flying through sky above the Floating-space City.

This marked the first time that Adolphus had ever left the Floating-space City. Before this, it could only sneak a peek at the ground from the sky in Floating-space City, so even though it knew that there were creatures of its kind elsewhere in the world, it had never seen any of them.

Now, it was heading toward the Dragon Island, where all of the dragons lived! In fact, it was all of the giant dragons' hometown! Adolphus was very excited to see it!

As Adolphus flew across the Bazaar Sea, the giant dragon island in the distance began to appear and grow larger. It was called Dragon Island by the dragon race, but to humans, it would be called a continent.

There were groups of active volcanoes on that continent, which exploded several volcanoes every year. There were also many other mesmerizing scenes on the islands, including a range of bizarre rock mountains.

There were rock pillars and volcanoes along the coastline. Often, the huge ocean waves would hit the pillars, causing the water to splash everywhere.

Many areas of the island looked poor, and the mountains looked somewhat brown in patches, as these areas were exposed and didn't have anything growing on them. However, in other places, there was lush vegetation and numerous trees were growing luxuriantly, sprouting directly from the volcanic ash.

There were also many volcanic craters. In fact, the largest mountain had several craters, which were filled with flowing lava that shined with a fiery red light.

"Hou!" As it flew, the gemstone dragon Adolphus was yelling with excitement.

Its loud yell caused the thin clouds to immediately scatter. The sound even carried to the owner of this island, alerting him to these approaching intruders, causing the owner to immediately rush out to see who it was.

At that moment, several groups of giant dragons surged into the sky and flew toward the gemstone dragon Adolphus. After all, this giant dragon looked bizarre and strange to them, and moreover, it was being ridden by a teenage girl! Being ridden was something that these giant dragons considered to be totally shameful!

Although the force that was coming from Adolphus was incredibly powerful and the teenage girl who was riding it also looked spectacularly imposing, these native dragons refused to cower After all, they were proud giant dragons!

"What kind of dragon is that? It's a weird dragon that I've never seen before!" a red female giant dragon commented with its hoarse voice.

Another adult black dragon immediately replied, "This can't be a dragon! It's too strange! It must be a monster that was created by humans. But, regardless, it's an intruder!"

"Kill them!" all of the dragons shouted in unison.

Suddenly, Adolphus saw several giant dragons heading toward it, readying an attack! Soon, an enormous fire ball headed toward Adolphus in the sky, as well as iced spears and iced arrows!

"Time pause!" Adolphus screamed.

At this moment, a trace of light shot out of Adolphus' body, then quickly covered the entire area. All of a sudden, time seemed to stand still, and all of the native dragons' attacks were frozen.

This power was a characteristic of a mythical creature, and the specific ability that Adolphus had to freeze time had come from Eva. This ability belonged to a strong power of domain that had first been explored by Lu Zhiyu.

At the moment it stopped time in that domain, Adolphus had a giant clock in its eyes, and suddenly, it saw all of the attacks stop in mid-flight, the weaponry quickly withering away. As for all of those native dragons, they were all hit by traces of light, while a giant phantom of a clock showed up on their bodies, rendering them unable move a single muscle.

"Wow! Impressive! My power is even beyond my own imagination!" Adolphus exclaimed in awe. This was the first time that the gemstone dragon Adolphus had truly discovered the immense power of his time freeze capabilities.

Upon hearing this, Verthandi said impatiently, "This is the power of a mythical creature. It is the ability that was first bestowed to my sister Eva by my dad. Now, you're a dragon that can even ignite the godly fire, so why are you being so smug just because you have defeated a couple of ordinary dragons?"

She then said, "Okay, now that you're qualified, it's time for you to summon your divine personality now. You'll need to stay here and wait until the day that you ascend to the position of god, then I'll meet you in the main god kingdom."

"Okay, Verthandi, my lord," Adolphus replied.

At the moment, Adolphus was standing beside a cliff. Verthandi reached out her hands and saw the stars moving in the sky, while a giant silver star god kingdom showed up in the sky above the dragon island, having come through the dimensional wall.

The light kept flowing and soon gathered at the bottom. Then, a meteor that contained strong ripples and the power of rules fell from the sky in a straight line, and the enormous soul of dragon that was inside Adolphus' body of Adolphus surged. Directly after this, a giant clock appeared in the sky above the dragon island.

At that moment, all of the giant dragons who had rushed toward that place were all thrilled by that force of power. After all, a giant ancient clock had just shown up in the sky, and the glowing light that was coming from that clock connected the sky and the land!

Circles of ripples soon covered the sky, and the hands of the clock started spinning. It was as if the rules of time in this entire world were following the rhythm of that one singular clock.

The dragons could almost feel the hands of that ancient clock orchestrating the pulse of this entire world. When the dragons heard the spinning sound of that clock, they felt like they were hearing the sound of the heartbeat of this entire world.

This sound made them feel like they were trapped in the stringy time sector domain, and they couldn't move a single muscle. Even their minds were frozen!

Then, the divine personality of time fell from the sky and entered that clock. Adolphus let out a huge dragon roar, after which the flow of time became normal again. All of the native dragons were now looking at the shadow of Adolphus, and their eyes that were once filled with ferociousness and rebellion were suddenly filled with fear.

"From today onward, Adolphus, you are officially the dragon god of time, and in the name of the Creator, I'll make you the controller of time and the supreme god of the dragon race. You will be known as the God of Agreement and Justice from now on!" Verthandi declared.

Upon hearing this, Adolphus rubbed Verthandi against with its long neck, while Verthandi stroked its head gently. She then surged into the sky like a trace of golden light and returned to the kingdom of stars. Sadly, she had left the dragon island before telling Adolphus what it needed to do to become a god!

At the same time, Adolphus' new name, the God of Time Dragon, echoed throughout the entire world. Although this was not a real belief that many races would follow, as a true god who had mastered time, just like the god who handled agreement and justice, the belief still had many followers.

As such, humans, sahagins, orcs and fairies were among the many disciples who signed up to follow the new God of Time Dragon named Adolphus, and once a contract was signed in the name of agreement and justice, it could not be violated. Otherwise, the offender would be punished by the God of Time Dragon.

Other than contracts, there were several wills and some other important promises and vows that would be made in the godly palace of the God of Time Dragon. These would be witnessed by the God of Time Dragon himself, who would then keep and protect them.

Gradually, the God of Time Dragon Adolphus became a name that was considered to be a synonym of justice and equality, and it became a symbol for the holiness of agreements and vows. Those ferocious dragons that roamed the land were gradually subjected to its restrictions, and the dragon island became a holy land in Maria's World.

Chapter 324: The Second Great King of Devils in the Abyss World

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Floating-space City, Capital of God

An enormous map was on the lobby wall. It stretched out for at least 10 meters and depicted oceans, continents, islands, mountains and cities with great detail and precision.

However, if one took a closer look, he would notice that the clouds and water on the map were moving, as if they were changing right along with changes that were occurring in Maria's World. A giant, tree-like mystic structure chart could be vaguely seen on the map. This was the model of the World Tree.

It seemed like the giant World Trees held up the entire Maria's World, and it could be seen that 11 of the 17 World's Cornerstones had been lit within it. The 11 World Cornerstones were interconnected, enabling them to be strong enough to embrace the whole world.

"The Goddess of Steam and Machinery, Marina Bosa! The God of Truth and Knowledge, Edward Kelermo! The Lord of Storm, Jonathan! The Dragon God of Time, Adolphus, and the God of Land and War, Felix, who is yet to be determined," Lu Zhiyu murmured as he looked at the map.

He then continued, "Lynn Ahenaten, from the Kingdom of Mercenary is competing for the same god's name. They will compete to determine the last god's name, the God of Land and War! Counting the six gods before, now eleven gods have been determined!"

As Lu Zhiyu continued to look at the projection of the world on the wall, he could see that the World Perfection Plan had been carried out step by step, perfecting itself gradually. Now, the model was emitting beams of light, which penetrated deep into every aspect of the inside of this world. Each of the World's Cornerstones were extending into a line, then traveled deep into the depths of the world.

Each cornerstone stood for a god and extended itself as if it was a root of the World Tree, representing its far-reaching impact on the world, its control over the rules, and its course of penetration into the progress of the world. These lines were endlessly spreading out, exploring, perfecting and adjusting the rules that were inside the world.

Some of the cornerstones had fully embedded themselves into the world. Their roots and impacts had gone deep into the world that was on the map and were secured firmly within the world. These were the early determined gods.

Some of them were just in the beginning stages, their exploration limited to only the first step, which was controlling the rules. These were the newly determined gods.

Others had just been lit, which represented that they were the chosen candidates for god names. As for the rest, they were vacant positions.

"The power of gods have started to spread out to the entire world like countless lines, controlling every aspect of the whole world. From rules to power to belief, all aspects of all lives are impacted by the power of gods," Lu Zhiyu murmured as he gazed at the map.

Just like Catherine had predicted, this world had become a gods' world with closing doors. However, this was a necessary step for the progress of the world.

"More than half of the World Perfect Plan has been carried out, but the remaining portion will probably take much longer to be completed," Lu Zhiyu murmured to himself.

It had been several hundreds of years since Lu Zhiyu had started the pursue this plan. Every step along the way, Lu Zhiyu had never been anxious. In other words, his time was something that was not pressed and could be wasted with reckless abandon.

After the World Rule Perfection Plan was carried out, the World Upgrade Plan would be next. Lu Zhiyu would then successfully reach level nine, thus fulfilling his initial wish, which was to have the power of creator, even without the scroll.

Now, the Floating-space City had left Maria's World and was getting closer to the Abyss World. At the moment, it was orbiting around the enormous Abyss World.

Ever since the Abyss Blood Sun's appearance and the initial perfection of rules, the devil species in the Abyss World had experienced the breakout of yet another war. This was because some powerful devil species had appeared from out of the initial chaotic abyss.

The time velocity in the abyss was about 10 times that of the astral world, which was ruled by Maria's World time. Now, 100 years had gone by in Maria's World, while about 1,000 years had gone by in the Abyss World.

Though the Abyss World emerged later than Maria's World, because of the difference in the forms of their worlds and the continuing imperfection of rules, the time velocity still could not be decreased.

As of now, the devil species had lived and owned supernatural powers for more than 2,000 years. The supernatural powers that the basic level devils possessed had surpassed those in Maria's World. As such, some ancient devils had survived, even since the birth of the abyss, and had lived for thousands of years, while gaining power that was beyond imagination.

However, they were bound by the Abyss World, just like gods. Hence, every devil could not escape from the will of the abyss, the impact of the power of the abyss, or this world itself.

Still, the impact of the power of the abyss could be seen throughout the entire world, including the Starsoul World, as the wizards had brought over the Devil Manual and documents about the devils. So, little by little, the impact could be seen in the new world as well.

As long as evil thoughts existed, and as long as the Devil Manual and their information was not destroyed completely, their impact would never disappear. As such, they peered at all worlds through the abyss, while taking advantage of the power from the abyss. In this way, they impacted all of the planes outside of the abyss through their evil thoughts and with the aid of those who wished for help from their devil powers.

At that moment, the dense space bubbles in the enormous Abyss World merged and combined. They then divided into dozens of massive Abyss Layers gradually, with countless spaces bubbles in the gaps.

These dozens of massive Abyss Layers represented dozens of powerful Lords of Abyss. The reason why Lu Zhiyu had come here is that one of the powerful Lords of Abyss had come close to becoming a mythical creature. This meant that this particular Lord of Abyss would integrate into the will of the abyss and become the second Great King of Devils after Stikua.

However, Stikua, the first Great King of the Devils, was currently sealed in the Abyss Blood Sun. Stikua had been sealed there by Lu Zhiyu and remained there till today.

Stikua had received this punishment due to its vain attempt to obstruct Lu Zhiyu's World Perfection Plan. As for the new Great King of Devils, Lu Zhiyu had decided to stay out of everything regarding that matter.

The purpose of this visit was simply to observe the abyss as the second Great King of the Devils emerged, as well as to observe how the rules would change. Lu Zhiyu did not set any regulations or rules for the Abyss World, as he feared that the future evolution of the Abyss World would be restrained by his ideology, just like what had happened in Maria's World.

If any earthlings could take a glance at it, they would realize that everything in Maria's World, particularly all of its prototypes, could be found on Earth. After all, this world had been created by Lu Zhiyu's ideology, so it was natural for it to be bound by Lu Zhiyu's world view and his knowledge from Earth.

As Lu Zhiyu had decided to stay out of it, he was currently just observing the free evolution of the rules of the abyss, watching to see what kind of rules would be formed and what kind of unique world would be created. At the moment, Lu Zhiyu stood on the edge of the Capital of God, looking into the faraway Abyss World with the astral world in between.

His eyes seemed to gaze deep inside the world, looking at the leading player in one of the Abyss Layers. It was a bizarre octahedral living being that was almost like a kind of mineral.

This being was attempting to explore the territory of gods, while connecting to the will of abyss and going beyond the bound of the Abyss Layer in hopes of becoming the second Great King of the Devils in the abyss.

Chapter 325: The Lord of Abyss Door

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Mhm… Eek… Mhm…

Mhm…

Mhm… Mhm… Lah… Lah… Mhm…

An eerie rhythm was heard coming out of the abyss. The giant octahedral devil species had gone deep into the space wall from the Abyss Layer.

Here, innumerable lower-class devil species were grovelling in the dust, while witnessing their lord ascending the throne of the Great King of Devils. Countless monsters spread were out all, covering the flesh-like ground and singing an eerie song, the sound of which could make one lose one's mind and descend into a state of frenzy and chaos.

At the moment, the dull red sun was shining in the dusky sky, beaming down upon the ground. Around the giant black vortex, the whole Abyss Layer and the space bubbles spun around the center of the abyss, which was the will of the abyss.

"I am the keeper of the Abyss Door, the lord who defines the Abyss Layer, the multifaceted King of Space! My name is Talos!" As the octahedral devil species Talos announced itself, it integrated with the will of the abyss.

Immediately, the rule of the entire Abyss Layer was altered for it, adding another new rule into the abyss. In the initial chaotic and unordered abyss, layers upon layers had already been defined.

The initial space walls, which one could go freely across, had been blocked, and numerous giant Abyss Doors had appeared in their place. One of these Abyss Doors was just like the devil Talos' body, which was a giant octahedral crystal.

Talos even opened up the door that connected to the outside world, thus fixing the rule of the Abyss Door that was built by Face Burner Heckfoss and Stikua devil. Now, it was much easier to open up the door to the outside.

One just needed to get the approval of the keeper of the Abyss Door Talos, asking for permission to call its true devil name and borrow the power of abyss that it represented. It was only then that one could open the door to the outside world.

It was the same case for the outsiders. If one understood how to perform the ritual sacrifice to Talos, thus pleasing Talos, who was the keeper of the Abyss Door, one could also borrow the power of the abyss and open the Abyss Door.

As Lu Zhiyu stood above the Floating-space City, the Capital of God in the astral world, he observed the abyss. It was spinning and expanding, and its rules were changing and reforming.

The abyss plane, with countless space bubbles, was also becoming 99 abyss planes, which were all connected by an Abyss Door, the Door of Talos. As for the time velocity, it lowered again gradually, thus getting closer to the time velocity of the outside astral world.

"The keeper of the Abyss Door, the lord who defined the Abyss Layer, the multifaceted King of Space, Talos!" Lu Zhiyu exclaimed as he observed.

The devil species Talos was rather clever. He did not have the calculating and intelligent mind of the king of Stikua, but he was a species that had survived ever since the birth of the abyss. It had even utilized the Abyss Door that was created by the devil species Stikua directly, making the door its own foundation and rule.

By using this rule, it had defined the form of the layers of the abyss and opened up the channel to the outside. Now, no matter what rules were created by the Great Kings of Devils later, their designs must be confined within this rule.

Also, when every Great King of Devils wished to gain power from the outside world or explore other planes, he would have to borrow power. If some demon warlocks wished to open up the Abyss door or even enter the abyss, approval must be gained first.

As the abyss stabilized, another Great King of Devils arose. Upon seeing that the abyss was forming gradually and perfecting itself, Lu Zhiyu walked way. He felt very satisfied with this progress.

As he walked, he murmured with a smile on his face, "The World Perfection Plan is progressing steadily, and a second Great King of Devils has arisen! In the astral world, the indigenous goblin dwarfs, the newly entered wizard tower, and the Elven Kingdom are all in their initial exploration and development phases. So, there is not much more than I need to pay close attention to now!"

He clucked his tongue, then said, "It's about time that I settle the matter with the starship. It has been in the South Pole and with the ships of the Atlantis civilization for a long time, and it was also delayed on the way back. As such, it's time to end this…"

Lu Zhiyu had gained a lot from this trip. In fact, he had learned so much knowledge that Lu Zhiyu was able to move a lot of his plans forward.Specifically, Lu Zhiyu had opened partial access to the Capital of God, had given a semi-perpetual bio-optic brain to Eva, and had warned her that she must protect the semi-perpetual machine and never let it shut down.

This was because if the machine shut down, the Starsoul World, which was in the process of perfecting itself by the semi-perpetual machine, would probably collapse due to unpredictable changes. Now, with Eva cruising the astral world and controlling the Floating-space City, Lu Zhiyu opened up the dimensional door and returned to Earth.

—

The huge starship looked like a gigantic steering wheel, and it resembled an irregular shuttle from the side. Most of its body was buried under Byrne Island, and only a part of its body could be seen.

The starship's spacious interior was beyond one's imagination. If one walked inside it, one could see a large number of crew members bustling about. They were all wearing tight-fitting protective uniforms.

The center of the starship was a vast living area, which had numerous buildings and urban farms surrounding it. There was even an aquarium beneath it, which was simulating mariculture by using tons of marine organisms.

Workshops and factories had also been built for use in the production of all kinds of necessities, as there was also a commercial district in the central area. Just like Gu Chaoran, who was head of the construction of the starship, had said before, this was a cosmic city. Without the help from a massive amount of construction robots and Sub-Brain David, it would have been impossible to build such a spaceship in such a short period of time.

The control room at the top of the starship looked like a square. It was empty and had a sense of loneliness inside it. One could only see the outside from a single, huge window.

"We should be seeing the vast starry space outside the window, but we are looking at an ocean now," Lu Zhiyu said, while standing on the platform above the stairs and looking up at the huge fan-shaped window.

Lu Zhiyu was somewhat unsatisfied with the Gu Chaoran's progress. Nevertheless, he had done a decent job.

At least he had successfully helped Lu Zhiyu with the construction of the starship. Although, since they had unimaginable resources and countless top talents that had been gathered by the Vatican Clan at their disposal, it should have been much more impressive, at least in Lu Zhiyu's opinion.

In the very beginning, it had been extraordinarily difficult for the clan to gather these talents. However, things started to go much more smoothly later on. This was because a huge amount of funds had been sent to the Byrne Island base, and all of the top talents from laboratories of different countries had also flowed into the base.

At the moment, spies from different countries and powers flew about stealthily inside the starship, while stealing inside information about it. However, Lu Zhiyu did not care about this data being stolen, as all he needed was for the starship's construction to be finished successfully.

Moreover, it was impossible for the spies to infiltrate the core areas, as Sub-brain David had the whole starship under control, while helping Lu Zhiyu to monitor every movement inside it.

Such a massive spaceship was about to enter space. Gu Chaoran seemed restless.

Chapter 326: The Truth

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In the control room, Lu Zhiyu was standing next an optical projection, the sub-brain David. Standing behind Lu Zhiyu were the lead of the starship program, Gu Chaoran, Fabio Rossi from the Robot Manufacturing Research Laboratory, the original starship designer Molly, and some experts in engineering, computer technology, dynamics and materials science.

These eight people were responsible for the design and construction of the starship Truth. They were members of its management committee. Lu Zhiyu came up with the starship's name, which was also the name of a spacecraft in a movie that Lu Zhiyu had watched a very long time ago and liked very much.

The construction had finally been completed. Truth could accommodate up to 100,000 people. It also was able to store a vast amount of materials and energy reserves. At present, there were only 2,362 people onboard, most of whom were foreign employees.

"Boss, you said that the gravity field device and some transformation devices were still not in place. As such, the current starship cannot enter space," Gu Chaoran said.

Lu Zhiyu nodded, but did not comment further on the doubts that had just been raised by Gu Chaoran. "You have a week to prepare. Everyone can leave Truth with your family. Then, after one week, those who stay will enter the space."

Gu Chaoran then said to Lu Zhiyu, "Mr. Nicholas Debye of the Vatican Clan has made an appointment to see you tomorrow. He will be accompanied by two important people."

Lu Zhiyu glanced at Gu Chaoran, who lowered his head and dared not speak any further. He had heard about Nicholas from the images about the Antarctic event that had been circulated on the Internet.

Although those images had since been deleted, there were still a number of members of the Antarctic base station that had posted images online, which was causing a tremendous sensation.

After seeing them, Gu Chaoran was convinced that his boss was probably from a powerful alien civilization beyond all humans' imaginations. As such, his power was most likely no different than the gods' in the eyes of humans.

At the end of the meeting, all of the people present seemed worried as they all left. After everyone had left the control room, Lu Zhiyu asked David, "Are you ready?"

"Yes, Truth's conversion has been completed," David replied.

Lu Zhiyu, like the sun, emitted lights and floated in the hall. Wherever he went, it became shiny. The starship was affected the most by his presence.

The starship itself was a huge alchemy lifeform. The main structure of its body was metal cells, but these were not mythical metal cells. At this moment, Truth was made up of regular metal cells.

"Divine life form template generated! Template inserted!" David emitted a mechanical sound and inserted the pre-designed starship divine life form template into the metal cells.

Lu Zhiyu integrated the curvature engine, gravity field device, and the protective cover that he had removed from the previous Atlantis Hope into Truth. These three devices then activated the super power of the divine life form template in Truth, which could be freely controlled at will and could even evolve with the other changes in Truth.

Truth now had a mythical alchemy lifeform. So, when it was hit hard, it could self-heal.

In this transformation, the curvature engine allowed Truth to achieve interstellar travel, even without the need for a large number of antimatter fuels, which provided energy for the curvature engine to generate a force field. This became a natural ability for Truth.

With the curvature engine, Truth was able to enter the space, instead of using the magnetic plasma propeller that used lithium hydroxide as a fuel. This was a great achievement, as otherwise, it would take a hundred years for Truth to leave the solar system.

Conventionally, if the speed reached the speed of light, the quality of matter must be infinite. But, with the curvature engine, the combination of negative energy and positive energy could generate the energy field that let the space in front of the field be compressed. In this way, a new space would be created behind the field, pushing the starship forward and allowing it to reach the speed of light.

Also, the gravity field device generated gravity inside the starship. So, all those people inside the starship were living just like they would on earth. As long-term weightlessness would kill red blood cells, destroy muscles, and hearts, only with gravity could people live in the starship for any length of time.

Also, the gravity field could avoid the situation that people inside couldn't withstand the tremendous pressure that was caused by the starship's acceleration. This was because the protective cover was equipped with plasma emitters in the front and at the rear, which emitted the plasma shield to cover the entire starship. At the same time, the high temperature generated by the protective cover could also be managed by the plasma.

These three technologies were all born in Hope, which had completely surpassed the earth's civilization. These new technologies were what reassured Lu Zhiyu of the hopeful future of space journeys.

"What's that? Where is the light coming from?" Lu Zhiyu wondered aloud.

The light shimmered throughout Truth. Many staff members in the central residential area found that the sun overhead became glaring in an instant.

The lights came from all directions. Meanwhile, Truth was undergoing tremendous changes…

Chapter 327: Terror

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Is this really a spaceship? We are not entering an underground city instead?"

"There have been at least a few turrets aimed at us!"

"This is dangerous! Extremely dangerous! The list of crimson danger reports includes all of the danger levels, but this list only shows the danger level of this base!"

"But, this time, what we have to face is a horrible existence that cannot be described in simple words!"

As three people were getting out of the helicopter, they were having a discussion with low voices. They were scared, but still walked straight ahead through the many doors in the starship, where they saw flashing lights and barely visible weapons.

Under the leadership of a service robot, they put on temporary identity bracelets. Only with these identity bracelets could they pass through the main passages and use the transportation facilities without activating the defense system and being attacked by the robots.

Coming here, the three people felt like they were leaving the earth for another world. The three of them entered the interior and found that the elevator did not move up and down, but in all directions.

Through the transparent elevator, they could see the entire interior of the ship, which was like a sci-fi scene. There were a lot of facilities, buildings, experimental bases, factories and so on within it.

The most eye-catching things were the robots that patrolled the area and worked in groups. These robots included engineering robots, service robots, business robots, and transportation and traffic robots.

When the three arrived at the central residential area, they saw many huge buildings. These were city farms.

More service robots, agricultural robots, and maintenance robots were working inside of them. The interior of the starship was like a smart system that was run by a massive network, which was stunning to the three of them to see.

Standing at the forefront of the trio was Nicholas Debye, the ruler of the Vatican Clan. This was his first time coming here, and he had not seen Lu Zhiyu for a long time.

From the bottom of his heart, he wanted to avoid seeing this man who was extremely dangerous and made him feel a deep sense of fear and terror. But, after all, this man had helped him to come to the peak of his life.

Instead of stopping in the residential area, they went directly to the upper floor and entered the management and control area. Nicholas was followed by a black man and a mixed-race woman, both of whom were dressed in suits and looked very nervous.

After Nicholas showed a few documents to prove their identities, Gu Chaoran confirmed his bracelet and a voice sent out an approval, which opened the passage to the inside. Here, they saw a man sitting in a lounge.

When they saw him, their bodies became stiff. Nicholas recalled all of the things that had happened with this man, while the other two people behind him recalled the explosion over Antarctica, which was a scene that had shocked the whole world.

In fact, hundreds of kilometers of ice had been shattered. But, Lu Zhiyu was just fine, even after suffering the laser energy beam that was powerful enough to destroy a small continent!

The Antarctica report's exact announcement had said…

"The target has the ability to destroy a continent, even more so than nuclear bombs!"

"He has wide space transmission capabilities, with a life expectancy and survivability beyond any human imagination. He may have come to the earth nearly two years ago and is most likely a highly civilized creature from the universe, having mastered an unknown and highly civilized technology!"

"He had an unknown ability and an unknown age, and he has used the names Mu Tao, Anthony, Zhou Zheng, Yu Hai, Lu Zhiyu, and maybe more."

"These names may not even be the target's true identity. He is also likely to have the ability to change his body shape. He sneaks into and lives in the human world, so there might be a high degree of civilized organization behind him. Moreover, he is not the only one!"

"The target is friendly to human beings and can communicate!"

"Secrecy level sss, hazard level xxxxx, belonging to non-contact, non-irritating, non-catchable. Again, one must be extremely careful with the target, who is beyond the crimson danger level and has the ability to destroy the world…"

This was the first time that the danger level had been described with a symbol, such as xxxxx. This was because even the person who had compiled the report was unable to find an adequate level to describe such a terrible existence!

He could easily destroy the human world and bring devastating disasters to all of mankind, and this was only part of his direct attack abilities! If he used his biotechnology to create a virus for human beings or used his intelligent robot technology and made unlimited copies of human beings, it would lead to the extinction of the human beings, perhaps even the extinction of all of the creatures on the earth! As such, either a direct attack or a space transmission could paralyze the entire the human world!

All of this report information was already known by the humans, but his hidden abilities, his specific technology, or the organization that was behind him were still unknowns. In the end, the words that the report revealed filled everyone who it with despair.

The fact that the earth was still peaceful when such an existence had lived on the earth for so long was really a blessing. Now, he was in front of them.

Although he had the same physical appearance as them, the three people could feel that the inside of his physical shell was filled with a horrible existence that was difficult to describe.

Lu Zhiyu sat on the sofa and watched a light screen that was projected by his bracelet. He was reviewing the information of the staff members from the starship and was preparing a list of candidates for Truth's management committee.

"Hello there! We are…" As the woman began to speak, she was clearly nervous. It seemed that, in her eyes, Lu Zhiyu was not a handsome man, but a horrible demon in human skin!

"Needless to say, I am not curious about your long titles and identities, and I care even less about the forces behind you and the country. Where you come from makes no difference to me!" Lu Zhiyu said coldly.

He then closed the projection, stood up, and nodded to Nicholas, who stood still. He then looked at the man and woman beside Nicholas and asked, "Have you come to negotiate with me on behalf of the human beings?"

Chapter 328: The Sea of Stars

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"We just came to communicate with you and to understand your wishes and needs. We also would like to know your plans. Also, if you need any help, you can tell us. We'll meet all of your needs!" The woman took a deep breath as she spoke to Lu Zhiyu.

Lu Zhiyu nodded. "I am very satisfied to see that you didn't make stupid plans or take any unnecessary actions. I am leaving the earth, and I don't want to leave any bad memories during this last period."

He then said, "I do have some requirements. I hope that you will help me to hire some people who will volunteer to enter space and explore the universe. However, these can't be mere ordinary people. They must be the top talents in all aspects and fields."

Lu Zhiyu had just looked at the profiles of the two thousand people who were inside the starship. This situation was exactly as he had expected.

Only 10 out of more than 2,000 people were willing to stay, and these 10 all came from a single family. Even the original management committee members were unwilling to stay.

Although most of these people were ambitious explorers of the universe, they knew what leaving the earth meant. The mysterious dark space was a big adventure that posed an unknown future and an unclear purpose. So, it was more than likely that they wouldn't live to see the end of such an adventure.

The fact that more than a dozen people were even willing to stay was already a surprise to Lu Zhiyu. After all, not everyone wanted to explore the universe at the cost of everything else.

What really surprised Lu Zhiyu didn't was that Gu Chaoran had finally chosen to go with him. In this way, Lu Zhiyu wouldn't have to worry about choosing a candidate to be the leader in charge of the starship.

However, a starship that could accommodate a minimum of 100,000 people finally leaving the earth with only a dozen onboard was still a rare thing. Although Lu Zhiyu made such a large spacecraft because he had follow-up plans, having a crew of only 10 people was still pretty shocking. Lu Zhiyu had hoped that Truth could carry more earth imprints into space.

These initial members who had been selected from the earth would be the first generation of the Truth management committee members. Lu Zhiyu hoped that all of these members could become familiar and trusted confidantes in the future.

"Ok, no problem!" Nicolas replied.

"I will leave the earth within seven days, and you will move on as soon as possible! After I get what I want, I will leave right away. You will also get what you want, so it's a fair trade!" Lu Zhiyu said to Nicolas.

It seemed that the three of them wanted Lu Zhiyu to leave as soon as possible. Knowing that Lu Zhiyu really wanted to leave the earth anyway, they had no intention of rejecting such a small request, so they pleasantly agreed.

Many countries all around the world immediately released advertisements for the crew of Truth. The Debye Company and the Vatican Clan, in the name of NASA, selected the crew members for Truth from applicants from all around the world, claiming that it was a spacecraft that combined global intelligence that would start an interstellar exploration to the Alpha Centauri. They also said that this trip could take up to 100 years, depending on the speed of the spacecraft.

During this period, the people onboard would stay asleep most of the time in dormant compartments. This would be an undocumented journey that would span a century, and it would be full of dangers and possible accidents. No one would knew what would happen or whether the spacecraft would arrive smoothly in the Alpha Centauri.

Even if those people returned to the earth, their relatives and friends would most likely pass away during the time that they were gone. This meant that, from the moment they set foot on the starship, they would have given up everything on earth to join this interstellar exploration tour.

This selection that was jointly conducted by these numerous countries immediately aroused strong opposition, causing debates to break out all over the world. A large number of professionals expressed their doubts about this tour. Particularly, they felt that this exploration program was too strange and too hurried.

Moreover, under the pressure of public opinion, people grew more concerned about the fact that human beings had really started the journey of interstellar exploration. As some people successfully got selected, this selection process reached a climax. At this time, conspiracy theories were treated as jokes and rumors, while those who knew part of the truth could only remain silent due to the fear of facing scorn.

In the end, more than 20 people were selected and sent to Lu Zhiyu. These people came from all over the country and were of different races and occupations. In all respects, they met the requirements that were specified by Lu Zhiyu.

Lu Zhiyu looked at the thick profile book, which detailed the background information and work histories of all of these people, including information about their living situations, friends, physical health statuses, psychological assessments and so on. But, what surprised Lu Zhiyu was that there were two familiar names on the list.

As Lu Zhiyu took out two of the files, he saw that the photos on the files looked very familiar. One of them was a young man with glasses, and the other was a black-haired woman with a typical British appearance. He then read the brief introductions…

Wang Yi… Male… 31… Medical doctor… Immunologist…

Zoey Sharp.. Female… mathematics doctor… Physical health level A, with a…

Both of these individuals were his old friends. Wang Yi was his classmate and former buddy, and Zoey Sharp was a friend that he once knew long ago. It was such a coincidence that they had been chosen to be among the crew of the starship!

Lu Zhiyu then asked, "Is everyone on this list voluntarily choosing to become part of the crew of the starship?"

After getting a positive answer, Lu Zhiyu no longer asked any more questions. Everyone had his own choice, and as long as they made their own decisions, Lu Zhiyu had no reason to interfere.

In the last few days, Lu Zhiyu had returned to his hometown. He had no relatives left there, only friends who had become somewhat obscured in his memory after all this time.

Some of them were married, some were still single, some people were successful in their careers, and some people had failed in life and were extremely lonely.

As Lu Zhiyu passed every building that he was familiar with during his childhood, the crowds of people rushed past Lu Zhiyu. The roads were filled with vehicles.

It was clear that the whole city was changing rapidly. Everyone seemed to be tied up by strings, living like puppets.

Life here was like a set of established templates and routines. Everyone lived according to these rules and routines in the template of life.

In fact, he now realized that the whole world had not changed, but he was the one who had changed. He seemed to have broken free from what had bound him previously.

Lu Zhiyu lay on the roof of his old home. The sky in the night was gray and there were no stars. The sky was like a film that separated the humans from the stars.

At this moment, Lu Zhiyu felt that his life was like a dream. He was a lucky man, as he had broken free and escape the rat race of living his life just like the countless normal lives on the earth.

He had broken away from his old destiny and launched a challenge to the universe. The exploration of truth and the unknown had started from here until now, and it was far from over. Now, he was just starting a new journey and was about to set sail again!

"It's time to leave! There is nothing worth staying here for!" Lu Zhiyu murmured as he looked at the sky.

Although nothing could be seen in the sky, he seemed to see the stars and the vast galaxy. He reached out and exclaimed, "Our journey is… To the sea of stars!"

Chapter 329: New Crew Member

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"We're now seeing the base of Byrne Island!" a reporter said.

"The spaceship Truth will take off for the space tomorrow, then travel to Centaurus, Alpha Galaxy!" another reporter announced.

"We can see from a distance that this base was built on top of the Pacific Ocean, and it is…"

"Journalist Anglica from CBS, reporting to you live!"

As many warships and merchant ships came to Byrne Island, there were also ships from the journalistic companies that had arrived and were reporting on it. Helicopters were also landing at the airport, and everyone was finishing the last bit of work.

Transportation robots were moving quickly, bustling about and going everywhere on the ground. They kept entering and exiting the portal of the base and the cabin door of the starship.

As for those crew members who came to Byrne Island the first time and had now returned, when they saw the spaceship Truth, they were all amazed. Just as they got out of their helicopters and walked to the spaceship from the airport, they found that it was truly a giant spaceship that was beyond their imaginations.

They were especially amazed at the inside of the spaceship, as it was a spacious city, not like the usual interior of a small spaceship that looked like a tiny coffin! Many of those who had just entered the spaceship immediately became engaged in intense discussions.

Everyone present was a top-tier genius, and although none of their specialties was astronomy, they knew that it was practically a miracle to be able to make such an impressive and giant spaceship like this, which could actually fly into the outer space! As they entered the spaceship, they were amazed by everything that was going on inside of it.

The moment they entered the spaceship, service machines came up to welcome them, then immediately led them to the residential area. These were intelligent robots that could communicate with people, and the guests couldn't stop asking the robots questions in order to test their functions and levels of intelligence. After seeing the results, which were very impressive, they all gasped in amazement.

A group of twenty-something people entered the cabin, including Wang Yi and Zoey. When the elevator reached the residential area, everyone was stunned when they looked down at the portals that were connecting the blocks of buildings. They all started to ask questions at the same time…

"Oh my god! What are those things?"

"Are you sure that this spaceship was made by the earth people? Are you sure it's not a UFO that was left by aliens?"

"My god! Are you kidding me?"

The elevator went down along the transparent tube and stopped at the entrance of the residential area. Then, a streamlined car that looked like a can stopped at the door.

A group of people then got into the car, which was floating! It didn't follow a railway, but it still raced forward like a high-speed train. It got close to the residential area at the center, while traveling past building facilities that looked like factories, research centers, and warehouses.

Suddenly, the group of people raised their heads and saw the portals and bridges that were connected with each other. The robots were walking around on them and the materials were piling up. After seeing this, the group of people continued to move forward in the car.

After they got inside the residential area, they saw about a dozen people, all of whom were dressed in white, standing in the hall of the area. They were clearly waiting for them.

Each of them was also wearing a special silver bracelet. These bracelets were were different from the temporary ones that they had before. It seemed that the new crew members who had just entered the spaceship were the old human beings, thus differentiating them from those wearing white.

"Greetings, everyone! I am the acting captain of the spaceship Truth! My name is Gu Chaoran. Welcome! We'll be working together for a very long time from now on," Gu Chaoran said.

He then added, "I am happy that you have joined and will soon become a part of our community! From now on, this will be your home! Now, we are all brothers and sisters!"

As Gu Chaoran walked forward to greet them, he looked passionate. Then, a middle-aged Asian scholar, who looked young and energetic yet had some grey hair, said, "I am Xu Hai! This spaceship is kind of different from our expectations. It is such an enormous spaceship, and the technologies you have are way beyond our imaginations!"

Gu Chaoran nodded, then replied, "That's because you guys just arrived, so you don't know a lot about this place yet. But, you will gradually learn more, and you will soon discover that the technologies and power that we master here are far beyond those of most worlds."

After this, many of the people present raised some questions, and Gu Chaoran patiently answered them all. Wang Yi then said, "It's been my lifelong dream to explore this space, and before I arrived, I was thinking that we might live in a cold and lifeless spaceship, similar to a coffin! I also thought that we might be frozen in a dormant cabin most of the time! But now, everything seems great! Is this where we're going to live from now on? This place looks exactly like a human city, as I even saw streets and all sorts of living facilities! This place is amazing!"

There were similar discussions being had among all of the newcomers…

"Based on my calculation, a spaceship of this size can hold more than 100,000 people! Moreover, this is clearly a spaceship that was made for colonial purposes. So… Why are we the only ones here at the moment?"

"It's indeed bizarre! This doesn't look like a spaceship that is used for exploration. Instead, it looks like a spaceship that was made for an interstellar colony. Based on the technologies we know about, it's almost inconceivable to build an exploration spaceship to undertake interstellar travel, not to mention a colonial spaceship as fancy as this!"

Gu Chaoran didn't answer these questions. Instead, Molly, who was standing next to him, said, "We're not going to live here! These are not our designated living quarters!"

Everyone was shocked to hear this, and Wang Yi, who was clearly unsettled, asked, "Then… Where will we live?"

Molly then said, "There are 43 people present here, including me. Once the spaceship is launched, we'll all be promoted to members of the management committee of the spaceship Truth. We will then be the controllers and managers of the entire spaceship. So, we will live on the upper level of the management section in the control sector."

She then added, "As for the lower level, the captain will make different arrangements regarding that. For now, everyone here will be a member of the management committee of spaceship Truth. Soon, you will be put in various important positions in the spaceship!"

Gu Chaoran nodded, then said, "We have arranged for you guys to meet here because we want you to know some information about the spaceship Truth first, and also, the temporary identification bracelets don't grant you access authority to the management section and control section. The service robots will give you new identification bracelets for access to those later."

He then added, "For now, you can walk around the spaceship and familiarize yourselves with the environment. If you need anything, you can ask the service centers and the service robots for help. There are all kinds of service facilities, restaurants, sports and game centers for you to enjoy, and they're all free."

He smiled, then concluded, "You can also call a car service! We realize that this all new to you, and as it is an actual city of the future, it might take you guys a long time to familiarize yourself with this place. But, there will be a welcoming ceremony for you all on the upper level tonight, which should help smooth the transition! Please arrive on time!"

After he finished telling them the basic information about the spaceship, he prepared to leave. As the acting captain of the spaceship, this was the busiest time for him, as the spaceship was about to be launched. In fact, he had only come down from the upper control area for a brief moment to greet the group because they were very important people.

Zoe then asked, "Who is the captain you are talking about? Is it Anthony? I want to meet him!"

As Gu Chaoran turned around and looked at Zoe, he immediately recalled her name and said, "Zoe Sharp! Is that really you? Well… Don't worry! When the captain wants to see you, you will surely meet him!"

Chapter 330: Leave the Earth

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Open the portal on the upper level of the base!"

"The captain ordered us to open the portal on the upper level of the base!"

"Open the portal on the upper level of the base!"

Many of the members were shouting out orders, and after a rumbling sound was heard, the gates on the ground that were covering the entire Byrne Island opened layer by layer, revealing the base of the original Byrne Island. After that, the spaceship Truth immediately appeared.

At this moment, Lu Zhiyu, Gu Chaoran, Molly and Fabio ascended from the control room. The control room also ascended to the ground level, and as the light shone on them, a projection appeared on the light screen.

Lu Zhiyu was standing at the middle of the main control room, and the largest light screen projection was in front of him. It was showing the situations of the oceans, including a three-dimensional projection that showed the situation of Byrne Island, including all of the dangerous areas and all of the data in the atmosphere.

As for the other three people, they were sitting in front of their own control panels, and the scenes in the light screen kept changing, showing them what they wanted to see. They were checking the data within the spaceship, preparing the spaceship to fly into the space.

Although the spaceship could be managed by David alone, Lu Zhiyu had still designed different access authorities to aid in managing and controlling the spaceship. They didn't necessarily need to control the spaceship, but mostly just needed to give orders instead.

On the management level, which was under the main control room, everyone else was lying in the dormant cabin. Aside from preparing for the dangers they were going to face, everyone was also waiting for Truth to successfully enter the space and get onto the right track.

Everyone had felt pretty stressed before they went into the dormant cabins, as they didn't know what would happen when Truth was finally launched. Some of them even wondered if they might die during the process.

At this moment, everyone in the world shifted their attention to the spaceship. There were ships everywhere, scattered all around the islands, and the satellites around the base kept transmitting the pictures of the base to television stations and over the internet. Every media outlet was covering the launch.

For most of the people, this was the most exciting moment of their lives, the chance to see humans conquer the universe! It was a milestone to all human beings. Yet, the officials of all of the countries were very anxious. Specifically, they worried that something might happen when Lu Zhiyu, who they viewed as a plague, left.

"The anti-gravity system of the spaceship has been turned on!"

"Countdown to ten!"

"Ten! Nine! Eight!… Four! Three! Two! One!"

As the crew was preparing for the launch, the spaceship was shaking slightly. Soon after this, the spaceship started to ascend from the ground slowly.

At this moment, Gu Chaoran, Fabio, and Molly, who had stayed in the control room, were extremely nervous and couldn't breathe. The control room was filled with tension, as everyone was afraid that something might go wrong.

"The data of gravity field is working well, and the gravity inside is stable!"

"All the data of the spaceship shows that the spaceship is working just fine. Nothing unusual is happening inside Truth!"

"Truth is still ascending! One hundred meters! One thousand meters! Five thousand meters!"

"It's working fine!"

"Ten thousand meters! It's about to enter the atmosphere!"

While all of the reporters were giving the play by play of what was happening, everyone was holding their breath in the spaceship, as they were afraid that something deviating from the original plan would happen and cause a major accident. As for those outside the spaceship and outside Bryne Island, they were all gazing at the sky, thrilled to be witnessing history!

At this moment, an enormous spaceship that was more than one hundred thousand meters in length rose into the sky. It was glowing as it accelerated!

At the bottom of the giant spaceship, a horizontal insignia was seen, which stood for infinity, and under that infinity sign was the word "Truth." When seen from sea level, Truth looked like an enormous mountain as it detached itself from the ground and ascended slowly into the sky.

When they saw this amazing scene, everyone in the world was thrilled. Nobody would have ever imagined that this was possible! After all, the spaceship Truth was so giant, and it was way beyond their imaginations of what an exploration spaceship should look like.

Soldiers, journalists, officials, scientists and all of the commoners who were watching this scene on their televisions or computers were all amazed as the spaceship ascended into the sky. Some of them had their mouths wide open, while some of them jumped up and down because of the thrills that filled their hearts.

"Conquer the space and the ocean! This is the era of human beings!"

"I'm excited! I'm ecstatic! I can't describe my exhilaration!"

"Is this Truth? Is this the spaceship that was made by all of the resources and scientific research from all over the world? Oh my god! It's way beyond our imaginations!"

The reporters were just as excited as the crowd and those watching on the televisions at home, as this was truly a monumental moment for all human beings. It felt like this world of the future could only exist in someone's fantasy, yet it was all really happening!

On the internet, the news of this launch was exploding, and soon, many discussions arose, all of them filled with speculation, suspicions, expectations and longing. The people were all voicing their opinions on this matter, and they were all looking forward to a future interstellar era for the earth and everyone upon it.

As Truth kept accelerating and rose further, skyrocketing upward into the atmosphere, it gradually got farther and farther from the people on the ground. Eventually, it was nothing but a small dot before it disappeared from the people's sights entirely. It then stopped on the predestined track that was 700 kilometers away from the earth.

"We've successfully entered the earth track!"

"Everything inside the spaceship is normal!"

"It has entered the track steadily, and the pressure inside the spaceship is one 100,000 pascals, and it's 21 degrees inside…"

As the semi-brain David in the main control room shouted out the data of the spaceship, it was only at this moment that three people in the main control room felt relief fill their hearts.

At that moment, Lu Zhiyu looked up and saw the vast and dark universe space. The stars were shining with a dim white light, but the earth down below was even more attractive to him.

The earth looked like a perfect combination of blue ocean and continents that were intertwined with different patterns and floating white clouds. The scene was truly breathtaking.

Even though he thought it was indeed beautiful, Lu Zhiyu still wasn't that amazed by the scene. After all, he had seen that same scene in Maria's World several times.

Although each time was different, they were all just as beautiful as the one he was seeing now. However, he was looking at his mother star at this moment, so his emotions were kind of different than the others'.

As for those other people, they were all attracted by this scene. They immediately started to miss the blue planet that they had just left, and Molly even started to tear up.

Lu Zhiyu just didn't feel the same way. Those on the earth, who felt relieved, would never have guessed that Lu Zhiyu had his dimensional doors everywhere on the earth, which meant that no matter how many light years Lu Zhiyu was away from the earth, he could still get back to the earth whenever he wanted via these dimensional doors, immediately showing up in front of them again.

As for those living in the management level below, they woke up after the alarm was triggered, climbed out of their dormant cabins, and gathered in the meeting area. Immediately, they all started asking questions and commenting at once…

"We have left the earth?"

"We're already in the space? It seems that we've arrived at our scheduled track, and now we're touring around the earth!"

"Why didn't the gravity change? Does this spaceship really have a gravity system in it? If so, how did they accomplish this?"

"Look, you guys! We can see the outside from here!"

It could be seen from the windows of the starship that traces of gleaming light were coming from the sun. They were shiny, like pentagrams, and they were cast upon the earth below. At this moment, all these people could see was that blue planet.

"The earth!" they all yelled in unison.

Lu Zhiyu sat in his control chair after everyone had finished their work. David's projection had just finished reporting all of the necessary data.

Lu Zhiyu then stood up and announced, "We've already finished the first step of our plan, and we've perfectly achieved our goal. Now, all of the members from the control committee must go to the main meeting room and start the first meeting. Then, we'll talk about our plans for the future!"

Lu Zhiyu was pretty satisfied with this launch, and those present had also become the true managers of Truth, thus earning the identities of members of the control committee of Truth. All of these things pleased him.

Lu Zhiyu had several steps planned for the starship Truth. The first step was to briefly explore and examine the inner area of the solar system, starting from the moon. They would then examine other planets of the solar system once the Hope of Atlantis arrived in the solar system.

As they made their way, they stopped by a couple of planets to examine them. The remaining power from the Dark Mother Tree had been scraped by Lu Zhiyu's mythical power, yet Lu Zhiyu still wanted to check to see whether there was some remaining power that had intruded into the interior part of the solar system. He also wanted to check to see whether there were any other life forms in the solar system.

The second step was to explore the Alpha system in Centaur that was the star system that was the closest to the solar system. It was also the star system that was the closest to human beings.

Lu Zhiyu wanted to go and check that place out and conduct some experiments that he didn't dare attempt in the solar system. The third step was to go to black hole v616 in Unicorn, which was the black hole that was the closest to the earth. It was around 200 light years away and infinitely heavier than the sun.

This third step would be a long journey, but at least the v616 black hole in Unicorn was set to be the final destination. After that, Lu Zhiyu figured that he could also try to find an inhabitable planet for living creatures or try to find a star system that could be reconstructed to sustain life. Yet, all of that could be decided later.

Along the way, Lu Zhiyu also wished to find some other living civilizations and some special life forms. He was also hoping to find some mysterious and special domains in the universe.

Aside from those plans, Lu Zhiyu also had a very important plan that he was presently hatching in his mind, which was to create a spawn race for himself. It would be different from the spawns that he had created before. This time, it would be a seed that Lu Zhiyu threw into the universe, which would be an extension of Lu Zhiyu's power in the universe.

This race must have the ability to adapt to the environments in the universe, and it be a universe race that had great potential. As for the large residential area inside the spaceship, he had already prepared a plan for that as well.

This wasn't an easy job. So, Lu Zhiyu planned to give the exploration tasks to Gu Chaoran. Then, after giving the tasks to Gu Chaoran and the others, he would set the programs for the intelligent sub-brain David and go back to the crystal wall and perfect it.

This was the first time that Lu Zhiyu had chose to create his own spawn, so when Lu Zhiyu was designing and creating them, he was more cautious and serious than he ever had been before.
