Chapter 210: Going to the Main Planet
Chapter 210: Going to the Main Planet
Ray recalled with a nonchalant expression, but every person on both sides felt a shiver down their spines.
This was an instinctive reaction triggered by their very souls; when a threat level aimed at taking their lives became too intense, they would inevitably feel such a reaction.
If a person is not strong enough, even strong killing intent directed at them might be difficult to perceive. However, the stronger the being, the more acute their sense of this threat would be. And who was Ray?
He was a being who could now, allegedly, compete with a Universal being. If he fully harboured ill intent against them, he could very well kill them through the sheer terror he could inflict upon them.
There was much of a voice of dissent among the humans as well, but Ray could hear people's whispers rumbling in his ears instantly, along with the harbouring of ill-intent among them.
"They need a long time if they wanna merge," he mumbled in his heart.
Ray wouldn't blame them. The human race has been at war with its own kind just because of slight differences in tone, skin colours, and such. Even if there wasn't, there was still propaganda around it, which created the illusion of such.
So, being able to mingle the human race and the race of Mars was likely even more impossible for one to achieve, even if Ray suppressed them with absolute strength.
What they needed was years of time, effort, and education for one to achieve this. It would be a gradual process, and Ray was not too worried; he had plenty of lifespan to wait around for.
"Although I don't know my exact lifespan, it should be a little less than a star's entire lifespan," Mumbling in his heart, Ray felt confident.
Once he had prepared enough, he could face off against the Universal Being—there was still plenty of time to do so.
"Let's get started."
Snapping out of his reverie, Ray spoke lightly.
Immediately, machines began moving in unison, producing crisp metallic sounds as their parts turned against each other.
Soon after, shelters started to take shape, designed to provide clean air and a habitat perfectly suited for humans.
Before long, all the humans were settled into place efficiently.
Ray returned to his circular disk, his ten women following closely behind him, including Vanessa once again.
"How were you able to leave Mars after becoming its planetary being?" Mother Earth asked in disbelief, though she quickly shook her head.
"Aren't you leaving your own planet as well?" Vanessa retorted, a frown marrying her beautiful face.
"We are different. This body of ours is merely a divine body, not our true form."
"Eh, a clone!?" Vanessa exclaimed in shock.
"No, not a clone exactly," Mother Earth corrected, shaking her head. "You could consider it half my body, whereas yours is your full body." Read exclusive adventures at mvl
"Because I used my Will to control Mars, even if I don't stay there, my Will can keep it stable," Ray replied, his gaze shifting toward Mother Earth. "Do you want to come out with your real body too?" he asked lightly.
"Can you do that?"
"Yeah."
The restriction of planetary beings only staying on their own planet could basically be suppressed with just a flick of his finger.
In fact, this could also be done by the peak of planetary beings; those stars achieve almost the same effect. This is how they were able to chase Ray down, and the actual body of the Sun also appeared during the fight with Ray.
Soon, they returned to Earth, where there were fleets of people in a large circular disk. This was a familiar scene from before, but the faces of the people onboard were very unfamiliar.
"Let's go."
Ray's voice echoed throughout the place, and the circular disk slowly began to hover off the ground, reaching the sky and following them as they entered another portal that he had opened.
This led to another planet that was full of water, with almost no patches of land, and the temperature was extremely cold—enough to freeze a person to death. The wind continuously blew in his face, swaying his silky, long white hair.
"It's quite hot," Ray commented, making the ten women behind him look speechless.
"Uranus, this is your planet, isn't it? Are there even livable creatures here?"
"Yes, there are," the planetary being of Uranus nodded, and in just moments, a small, fluid-like jelly appeared in the waters below.
Then thousands of them came in hordes, but they looked a little strange as they vibrated in the ocean, as if they were quivering.
"Are they scared of me?" Ray asked curiously while looking at her.
"Yes, they are," she nodded.
"Well, settle this, people. We have to go to other planets and, at last, to my main planet," Ray said with a mysterious smile on his face.
Soon, they visited other planets to settle for the humans. Their habitat was designed for exploring the places they were given, allowing them free reign over it. It was up to them to make it work.
Ray was not going to babysit them, as that would lead to a decline in their creativity.
Although technology had advanced far beyond expectations, very few experts could fully harness such advancements, and the rest were still not trained enough. So, for now, Ray was not going to push for further technological advancement.
They needed a period of time to even utilise all the technology he had introduced. The advancement of an entire civilization wasn't a single man's job but required the entire human race working together.
Soon, they visited the other planets, and Yukia became a planetary being alongside Freya, Yuna, Grace, and Evelyn.
At last, they arrived at his main planet, which Ray had built from scratch.
As they took in the green scenery, the majestic golden sky, and the vast ocean, the ten women couldn't contain their astonishment.
"What do you think?" Ray asked with a chuckle.
"You are an amazing builder, Ray," Vanessa couldn't help but say.
"If you're amazed by such things, I wonder what you will think when you see the special thing I created," Ray replied with a mysterious smile.
"What is it?"
Almost everyone echoed in unison. They knew that if Ray had mentioned something special, it must truly be remarkable; otherwise, he wouldn't speak like that at all.
"Haha."
Ray just chuckled. "You must have read or heard about the Dragon, right?"
"Could it be?" Before anyone could speak, Mother Earth responded with a trembling voice.
"Yeah." Ray glanced at her and patted her shoulder. "The grudge is of the past, and the past never comes back. You should forget about such things."
She remained silent, her fists clenched and her body trembling with rage, as if she were about to lash out at any moment.
Then, in the golden sky, a small shadow slowly enlarged in front of them.
Its body resembled that of a massive reptile, and its wings flapped violently, as if it could create a storm even larger than its own body at any moment.
Slowly, the dragon revealed itself, bowing in front of Ray.
"I greet my master."
"How has it been?" Ray casually nodded his head.
"I have had a great time living here, master," the dragon replied, glancing slightly up at the corner of its slitted eyes where Mother Earth stood silently.
"Do you two still have beef with each other?" Ray asked, amused.
"It seems so."
The dragon replied, "I am sorry, Mother Earth, for all the things our entire race has done to you, for betraying our creator and allowing arrogance to cloud our judgement."
It bowed in a respectful manner.
"Look, it is truly remorseful for a reason," Ray patted her again encouragingly.
"I hope so, hmph," she replied, still with a cold tone while looking at the dragon.
"Haha."
Ray lightened the mood for everyone while calling for the other creatures as well.
They included vampires, large bats, and even tiny elf-like beings, creating a scene that looked as if straight out of a fantasy story.
"I never thought these things were all true, Ray," Yuna said with bright eyes.
"Well, fantasy is just a fragment of reality that is overstated," Ray replied, shaking his head. He soon helped the humans settle in, allowing them to gradually adapt to the changes in the environment.
After that, Ray returned to Earth once again.
Then his figure vanished, returning to the laboratory that was much more futuristic than before. If previously it could be said to be a high-tech still in comprehension of people before the apocalypse now it was completely different completely beyond understanding anything in this lab.
Seeing Ray, every expert in the room paused before bowing towards him.
"Hmm, how is the research on the human genes progressing?" Ray asked, getting straight to the point.
"Lord Ray, we have completed about fifty percent of the studies on it," one of the experts replied.
