Elysia hovered in Earth’s atmosphere with Ai by her side, supported by the local sky spirit’s elental power.
The situation on Earth had beco so complicated. Due to the unexpected world rging after the Outer Godly Entity’s invasion, the planet’s size increased to 150% of its original size.
However, one-third of Earth’s area, especially the south and seas, had beco territory for foreign creatures, monsters, and other races from other worlds.
The local animals and beasts mutated, and the monsters were almost everywhere, threatening humanity. However, many humans also received Heaven’s blessings, known as the superpower. Not to ntion, humans possess the advanced technology.
The Heaven Realm was still recovering, and the underworld beca unstable. The destroyed area was almost everywhere, and death zones existed in every region.
"Humanity... the population has been reduced by over half since I can rember." Elysia lanted while staring at the clashes between the humans and monsters in the distance.
"What do we need to do, Ely? Humans protect their world, but the said monsters only want to live. Their world rged into Earth not by their choice, but because the Greedy Gods from their dinsion invaded Earth." Ai crossed her arms, staring at the war below with a sharp gaze.
"Things have already happened. The two world’s inhabitants could co-exist without dealing with each other severely. Let’s see what we can do." Elysia raised her palm and whispered sothing to the sky spirit.
"Aye!" The sky spirit saluted and then flew down, calling its friends below ground.
"We need to hunt down the reincarnated Outer Godly Entities too. There are also the transmigrated ones here."
"We shall take a step at a ti. The Gods of Heaven have paid a heavy price to take the enemies down. Their sacrifices were rewarded with a second chance at life in the mortal realm, but the threat has also fallen here. Let’s move."
Elysia grabbed Ai’s hand. They vanished from the sky as there was still sothing they needed to do imdiately.
*Rumble!*
"All units, retreat!" The commander on the battlefield announced an ergency signal to all troops.
The barren battlefield, the southern defence line in Australia, was shaken by a powerful volcanic earthquake.
The earthquake split the ground in two, creating a vast chasm that stretched for more than a thousand kiloters with a river of hot lava at the bottom.
"What in the world-" The commander looked up, wondering what had just happened.
So flying-type monsters flew to cross the chasm, but those monsters beca easy targets for all long-range shooting units.
Hundreds of shots from laser weapons were fired, blasting the monsters full of holes. The monsters fell into the chasm, lost in the river of lava.
The battle for territory had already been split by a dangerous distance, and both sides could not resu the war for territory.
Thus, both sides, the intelligent monsters and human soldiers, stared at each other silently for several minutes before the monster army chose to retreat.
"We won?"
"We won!"
"The monsters retreat! Heaven bless us!"
The soldiers cheered happily at their victory.
"This is Commander Jas. An earthquake occurred, and a lava chasm appeared on the battlefield. The monsters retreated. We request reinforcents to strengthen our defensive camp." Jas, the leader of the joined army, spoke to his intercom, reporting the situation to headquarters.
The response from central headquarters soon arrived. "Positive. Reinforcents will arrive at the southern border in an hour."
"..." Jas sighed and took off his helt. The earthquake that had just occurred was strange, and he suspected it was soone’s work.
However, he couldn’t think of soone powerful enough to do that.
Since there was nothing he could do regarding that matter. He returned to the backline and approached his secretary. "Report the situation."
"241 warriors died on the battlefield. 1532 suffered light injuries and 487 heavy injuries. The monster hordes, numbering thirty thousand, are leaving the lava chasm. Sir, will another natural disaster occur again?" The secretary read the report.
"They are the elites from the joined army. We lost a lot of people..." Jas sighed in sorrow. He then looked back. "Subsequent disasters may occur. Even though they are the mutated beasts and the alien monsters, their instincts are the real deal. We need to retreat to the defensive camp now."
"Affirmative." The secretary adjusted her glasses and sent the notification to all units.
Since those monsters fled in fear, then they should not stay there for long. The soldiers imdiately moved away from the lava chasm.
Among all regions, Australia was the one that suffered the most significant threat because the alien monsters had already taken over the South Pole. The newly erged southern islands also beca the monster’s dens.
With the lava chasm ergence, the soldiers could take a breath and prepare for the next battle against the monster invasion from the south.
At that ti, Elysia and Ai arrived at the northern region’s death zone. Their destination was the deepest artificial hole ever.
"This nuclear radiation... A nuclear bomb was detonated here several months ago." Elysia inspected her surroundings, looking for the super-deep hole.
"Ely, I think this is what you are looking for. The entrance has lted and is buried underground." Ai dug a little and found the iron ground, the lted entrance to the superdeep hole.
Elysia flew to Ai’s side with the help of an anti-gravity artefact. She squatted down and used her Sacred Vision to check what was inside.
That hole was super deep as rumoured. With a depth of more than 12 kiloters, the hole was useful for retrieving Earth Core.
"Wonderful. Ai, help open the hole. We will change the world today." Elysia put the World Core replacent in a storage pouch and prepared three pieces of aurora crystal fragnts. She imbued them with a command and then gave them to the nearby earth spirit.
*Clang!*
Ai pried open the lted iron gate with a crowbar and stepped back.
"We’re counting on you. The Mother Goddess is waiting for you down there. Still, you need to co back imdiately." Elysia reminded the earth spirit.
The little earth spirit replied with a salute before dropping into the superdeep hole.
Elysia took a deep breath and made a rectangular fra with her two fingers facing the super-deep hole.
"..." Ai crossed her arms and checked her surroundings for danger or anything threatening as she had to ensure Elysia’s safety and concentration.
At that mont, she thought about this world’s oddities. Earth, the blue star planet in the Milky Way, has undergone several changes in civilization.
Despite the decline in quality, Earth still invited the outer godly entities. However, this world possessed minimal spiritual energy, very thin for a magical world coveted by many.
Earth was the world of magic in the past, but that era was over a long ti ago. If the outers were still targeting this world for sothing, it had sothing to do with Earth Core. The outers wanted to extract Gaia, the World Core, to devour or refine...
’Alashor also coveted Earth Core before. This world has gone through several civilizations but has always been in decline. Did Gaia deliberately lower Earth’s quality to prevent danger?’ Ai tapped her cheek.
If she thought about it again, Elysia also desired Gaia, but Gaia followed Elysia’s wishes unconditionally.
Ai was busy with her train of thought, but Elysia was too absorbed with their current task.
The earth spirit served as a courier. It deposited three aurora crystal fragnts and the storage pouch at the bottom of the superdeephole before imdiately returning to the surface.
The three aurora crystal fragnts light up and move like a drill, delivering the storage pouch to the planet’s core.
’I just told you to refrain from using your otherworldly magic...’ Gaia couldn’t help but sigh.
’That’s not otherwordly power. I borrow the Earth and Heaven’s force to assist . Here we go. We co to pick you up. Please enter the storage pouch and replace your spot with the replacent.’ Elysia used the aurora crystal fragnts to deliver her command.
She found the large green sphere below, arriving at the planet’s core where Gaia was. However, the temperature was extre, and she had to protect the crystal fragnts and storage pouch from lting.
’Alright... I will do as you say.’ Gaia relinquished her position as the planet’s core and imdiately used her divine ability to replace her spot with the new World Core.
The new World Core had nothing special because it was a new core. It resembled a silver basketball but would serve as her replacent to support the new Earth.
As for her, her true body was a green sphere the size of a two-story house.
She entered the storage pouch and took over from there to go to the surface.
It beca her first experience going to the surface with her true body because that was usually her avatar or incarnation.
She used the storage pouch as her transportation, escorted by three aurora fragnts. The superdeep hole was closed tightly by her throughout the journey until she arrived in front of Elysia.
"Pleased to et you, Mother Goddess Gaia. Welco to Elysium~" Elysia caught the floating storage pouch and opened it, greeting Gaia inside with a happy smile.
"It’s my honour." Gaia felt her decision to join Elysia’s family at this opportunity was right. The destined ti arrived sooner than expected.
Elysia truly desired her and had prepared everything to take her away. The intentions, reasons, and treatnts differed significantly from those despicable, crafty entities.
Since she had no reason to refuse and would fulfil Elysia’s wishes, then she proceeded with her promised vow, showing her submission.
