Chapter 2010 Hall of the Gods

"Supervisor Iktun, I'm afraid I bring bad news. The natives of the world I'm in have recently killed one of our Protectors and are coming for us. I am afraid that we will soon be discovered."

Hearing this, the man represented by the hologram changed his expression and became much more serious. "How long will it take your group to finish building the road to us?"

"At least a hundred years, Supervisor."

"That is too long. All right, I'll push the construction of our side of the universal wormhole to this planet. We'll try to reach you in the next 30 years."

"I appreciate that, Supervisor."

"In the meantime, be careful. If possible, use the cryogenic chambers to wait for us. Those yokels from such a world won't be able to resist us when we get there."

"Thank you for the advice. We'll do our best to prepare the ground for the Mechanic Empire.

Glory to the Mechanic Empire!"

"Glory to the Mechanical Empire!" This level 99 holographic being repeated the same words before disappearing.

...

Meanwhile, in a distant place from the Spiritual World...

Amidst the stars of deep, infinite space, there was a planet about 40% the size of Minos' homeworld but with nearly 70% more immortal energy than that world.

Immortal energy was nothing more than spiritual energy, but in a denser form and richer in natural laws than that found in the Spiritual World.

This planet in question was shaped like a loaf of bread and was almost completely monopolized by the dominant civilization, which had even dominated the solar system in which it was located.

If one could observe such a place from the sky, one would see several strange structures around the planets of this solar system, with many ships constantly moving around.

Meanwhile, the headquarters planet of the Mechanic Empire, The Adamant Land, was home to one of the most powerful civilizations in the galaxy, the ruler of an entire star quadrant!

With its advanced robotic technology, advanced forms of communication, and remoteness, the civilization of this planet was a colossus that extended far beyond its homeworld.

Meanwhile, while the hundreds of millions of living beings on this world lived among the artificial life created by the Infinity Naga race, robots similar to those Minos had recently met, at the center of this world was the capital of the Mechanic Empire.

In this shining place, made entirely of an extremely resistant material found only on this planet, was a palace as large as Dry City.

There, on one of the highest levels, was the man who had just received a message from one of the leaders of the many groups of space explorers that the state had around the galaxy and star quadrant.

After finishing his conversation with the man in the Spiritual World, this level 99 Demigod, Iktun, clenched his fists with a smile on his face.

"This Spiritual World could be the greatest discovery of the empire since we mastered the Dark Rift. We can't mess around with this world, or another civilization of equal or greater strength than ours will take over and steal the precious resources of this prehistoric world." Iktun muttered as he moved his immortal energy through his body to a ring on his left hand.

As the blue jewel glowed brightly, manipulated by the energy of this level 99 Demigod, the space around him vibrated, and an instant later, he disappeared from where he was. 

In the blink of an eye, Iktun saw his surroundings change, moving from his office in the imperial palace to one of the moons of The Adamant Land, where a gigantic temple stood.

Arriving there, Iktun, a high-ranking elder of the Mechanic Empire, felt an overwhelming energy wash over him and didn't hesitate to prostrate himself.

"Supervisor, what are you doing in the Hall of Gods?" A giant that looked like a statue opened its eyes and looked in Iktun's direction, making this high-ranking man of the Mechanic Empire feel as if his life depended on the will of this existence.

Standing before him was the protector of the Hall of Gods, the level 100 God of Giants!

"Your Excellency, I'm sorry to disturb you. This mere mortal brings important information about the Spiritual World. Local forces are threatening our operations. I'm afraid that if we don't speed up our plans, we'll lose our advantage in this world." Iktun said, avoiding looking at the God in front of him.

"Oh? Spiritual World, huh? Did the natives find out about our presence there? How long ago did that happen?" The great giant was interested.

"I have just received contact from the group of explorers on that distant world, Your Excellency. It seems that a group of natives is heading toward our secret outpost on that world after killing one of the Protectors."

"These natives are powerful and bold. Very well, go ahead, Supervisor." He said as he looked up at the stars, just before returning to his motionless state, stopping blocking Iktun's path.

Having received permission from one of the 16 Gods of the Mechanic Empire, Iktun followed the grand temple staircase until he reached the main hall where those behind the Mechanic Empire lived.

The emperor of this state was one of the 16 Gods, so he lived in the Hall of Gods, not the imperial palace.

The emperor's eldest daughter was the one who acted as his representative in the imperial palace most of the time. But as a level 99 Demigod, there were things the Crown Princess couldn't order.

So Iktun was there to speak to his sovereign and ask the Hall of Gods for permission to focus the empire's actions on ending the universal wormhole to the Spiritual World.

Wormholes were the only way to travel long distances in the universe since even the most advanced spaceships were limited in speed to cover the entire universe.

Without wormholes, not even Gods could reach certain places in the universe!

Since the group in the Spiritual World had arrived there by accident, they had to establish a connection between that world and the Mechanic Empire's territory if they wanted to receive reinforcements or return home one day.

For this reason alone, this state had not yet ruled the entire Spiritual World and was still in the process of establishing a universal wormhole there.

"Your Majesty, I'm here to ask for your help. Please send the God of Space to join the group of space builders who are establishing the universal wormhole to the Spiritual World." The man begged as he once again prostrated himself.

In front of him was the strongest being in the Mechanic Empire, the God of Robots!

"Spiritual World, huh?" The God of Robots muttered as several giant armors of the same level as his activated, their eyes glowing an intense red.

"Alright, time to take over another civilization. Chaos, come out." Said the emperor, calling out to the God of Space.
