Godlike Player in a Game-Like World

Chapter 269 Impending Doom (Part 6)

?

Within the span of just one day, we were able to determine that a significant number of the regions that had been present on our map up until that point had vanished entirely. 

Geography had undergone a complete transformation, with many geographical features, including oceans, deserts, and even some cities, having vanished. 

At that moment, we came to terms with a harsh reality: as a result of our defeat in the war, we had not only lost a large number of item holders, but we had also lost a portion of our world.

The magnitude of our misfortune exceeded any expectations we had. And this only happened after one world war. But what would happen in the aftermath of the second or third world war?

We had no time to be sad over our loss. 

Even though we had no idea when the next world war would start, we had to make preparations for it nonetheless. We had previously rescued our world from the brink of oblivion, and now we needed to be like a phoenix and rise from the ashes once more. We needed to be a lot more powerful than before. 

After the previous battle, in which our entire army was eliminated by a single Draconian, we came to the conclusion that the number of our forces was no longer relevant.

The image of the smiling face of Dragonian, who easily killed our comrades and defeated us alone in a humiliating way, and the words "lowly humans" kept ringing in our ears for a long time while we were making plans again for the future.

We had to come up with an item holder that would ensure that our species would never again be referred to as "lowly humans."

We began by concentrating on the initial shortcomings of our race in comparison to those of other races. Our minds went to the impenetrable scales that the Draconians possessed as well as the inherent power that came from their ancestry and ran through their veins.

With all of this, we needed to develop a human being with a physical structure that could absorb all of our techniques from birth until they were awakened as an item holder.

We faced the challenge of creating a formidable and resilient body that possessed the strength we needed. However, it was essential that this body remain human, even though we couldn't rely on natural means for its creation.

Keeping this in mind, we collected the necessary gene samples from residents of our world who possessed exceptional physical qualities. After that, we began the process of creating the human body we desired with these genes by constructing a formation with all of the resources at our disposal and an orange-grade item as its core.

After a significant amount of time and a large number of failed attempts, we were finally successful in achieving our objective. We were finally successful in our attempt to create a human baby. Despite the fact that the body we created was still not as good as the bodies of the high races, it had the potential to be the most powerful body the human race has ever produced.

At the very least, it was a body that could handle the techniques that we were going to teach without being an item holder, and that was enough for us.

However, following this success, we were confronted with a new challenge. We were able to construct a human body, but this body was still missing a soul.

In contrast to the manner in which we constructed this body, we were unable to produce the soul by collecting gene samples from a large number of individuals. We also were not able to take the soul of any individual and transfer it to this body because the item holder that we were trying to create required a unique soul. 

Ultimately, the title that an item holder will attain upon awakening is not solely determined by the growth of their potential through learned techniques, but also by the individual's character. Therefore, the spirit of the person plays a crucial role in shaping their title.

Due to the nature of this issue, we were unable to move forward in our search for a solution for many years. During this process, we were fortunate enough to avoid having to take part in yet another world war; however, we had the impression that we did not have very much time left.

Fortunately, we didn't have to wait much longer to find the solution we had been seeking. During our relentless pursuit, we stumbled upon the sale of a crucial item at an auction in the upper dimension—the realm that had always remained under our radar.

The moment we realized that this item was going to be auctioned off, our entire world was thrown into a state of sudden excitement and tension. We were acutely aware that if we missed this opportunity to acquire the item, our chances of acquiring it in the future would be extremely slim because this item was a golden-grade item that rarely appears even in the upper dimension.

Thankfully, we were able to acquire the item, despite having to pay an exorbitant price and even selling several high-tier techniques.
