Chapter 88: Humans Accidentally Unearth Something Incredible 5/8
"First technical test, begin!"
"Buzz—!"
With Technician Icarus’s command, the massive mining vessel stirred to life.
The "divine grace engine" roared violently as extracts from the "divine grace mounds" radiated intense energy, fueling the colossal ship’s movements.
"Boom… boom… boom…"
The hundred-and-fifty-meter "Trilobite-type" ship crept forward.
Though merely a mining vessel—modest among its class and dwarfed by warships like "Giant God’s Radiance" or "Son of the Giant God"—
it held profound meaning for all Themis and chaos-fighting hopefuls!
"Buzz…"
The work ship halted beside the "net path wall."
"Clank—!"
Mechanical arms whirred into motion.
Giant plate-shaped digging mechanisms edged forward, brushing the "net path" barrier.
Previously, domain rules would’ve repelled them, yet now…
"Whoosh…"
They slid smoothly into the "Primal Mud."
"Whoosh—!"
One gentle outward scoop!
A tiny breach opened in the net path wall!
"Oh!"
"We succeeded!"
"Amazing! Now we can aid the Giant God!"
"Great is the Giant God!"
Technicians aboard the ship hugged, shouting fervent praises to the Giant God.
Cheers flooded the Soul Network.
Digging "Primal Mud" and expanding the City of Dimensions was once divine work—reserved for entities like "Ether Dragons," "Star-Eater Plutonium Dragons," or the Giant God.
Human achievement here rivaled launching the first satellite: mortal hands seizing godly deeds.
Still…
"Never forget—glory belongs to the Giant God!"
A gaunt man in specialized "goggles" cried out, his near-frantic shout cutting through the celebration.
"How great was the generosity of the Giant God to bestow upon us these hidden secrets!"
"Why did the Giant God grant us mortals its power?!"
"It was to connect the Five Hundred Worlds and completely defeat chaos!"
"We couldn’t be satisfied with this; we had to expand production right away, promote this tech fast, and use it to build the net path!"
This man with the goggles was the leader of Ranger Ark Iyangden.
His vision was damaged while receiving the "Starfire Coordinates" and was still recovering.
Yet despite this, he and all members of his ark had become the most loyal and fervent followers of the Giant God.
To the people aboard the ark, the Giant God was like a lighthouse piercing through despair and darkness—their only light!
Having once lost their homeland, they cherished their current lives more than anyone, holding a belief in the Giant God that was even stronger than those who had grown with Him.
As for this fervor of latecomers surpassing the old, living saint Sulya had no objections.
"Very well said."
Sulya’s voice echoed in the Soul Network.
"Buzz… buzz… buzz…"
The massive "Giant God’s Radiance" also appeared behind the mining ship.
"Icarus, how is the analysis of the ‘technology’ granted by the Giant God going?"
Mentioning the technology bestowed by the Giant God perked Icarus up.
"Actually, it’s quite terrible."
"Even though we used the Solar Holy Light system, we could only understand about forty percent of it."
"Most technical parts need a copycat process to make, and some steps that seem optional are actually vital."
"Plus, it was strange that installation, adjustment, and even use of this ‘divine technology’ had to be done by operators with firm belief."
"It was truly incredible."
"I even suspect that the equipment forged using ‘divine technology’ contains ‘souls’ that pledge loyalty to the Giant God!"
"Only by being loyal to the Giant God will they be pleased and work right."
"Thankfully, with help from the technicians in Iyangden, we had mostly solved the mass production problem."
At this, Icarus nodded respectfully to the leader of Ranger Iyangden.
The other party returned the courtesy politely.
But the leader of Ranger Iyangden bluntly added, "Sadly, there’s still one issue."
"We can indeed mass-produce ‘Primal Mud’ diggers; but the ‘Smashing Claw’ you wanted to roll out is tough to make in bulk."
"Because making that thing needs ‘Divine Body Shell Fragments’ or ‘Fantasy Tree Fibers’ as the base frame."
"But the stock of ‘Divine Body Shell Fragments’ was too low; we could only fit them on ships like the ‘Giant God’s Radiance’ and a few smaller ones; we’ve hit the limit already."
"As for ‘Fantasy Tree Fibers’…"
"We don’t have any at all… ah…"
"Boom—!"
The report from Ranger leader Iyangden was abruptly cut off.
The hull violently shook.
"Creak—!"
The hundred fifty-meter-long giant ship actually creaked as it deformed!
The cause was an elongated "lower lip" weapon with terrifying double hooks at its front!
Now, this working ship got clamped by those enormous hooks!
"Whoosh—!"
A massive force yanked it backward!
Instantly, the ship was dragged beside the mouthparts.
"Creak—!"
Sharp iron jaws viciously gnawed the outer armor of the "Trilobite" working ship!
"Sizzle—!"
Sparks flew everywhere, even within the etheric liquid!
"Damn!"
Technician Icarus roared in frustration.
"We grew reckless!"
"Accidentally breached the Giant God’s solidified net path wall!"
"Demons couldn’t enter before—but now they’re exploiting the gap from our test!"
"O Giant God! Forgive our foolish ignorance!"
Truthfully, Icarus shouldn’t shoulder all blame.
The "net path" dug by Trilobite was shoddy—etheric serpents had slipped through before, and subspace roots penetrated easily.
Other breaches were inevitable.
But regrets or blame-shifting wouldn’t help now.
They needed solutions!
The living saint grasped this clearly.
"Hah—!"
With Sulya’s fierce cry, the "Giant God’s Radiance" charged forward.
"Roar—!"
Spotting Sulya, the terrifying demon god burst through the narrow gap with a "Bang!"
"Bang!"
Its colossal frame shattered the opening, widening the breach!
"Buzz!"
The double-hooked lower lip discarded the battered working ship and lunged at the "Giant God’s Radiance."
But what awaited it was—
"Buzz—Bang—!"
The Smashing Claw shot out like lightning, slamming into the lower demon god’s lip!
"Squelch!"
The lip proved no match—shattering up to its forehead, crushing the huge-eyed head to pulp.
"Ugh…"
The headless demon god corpse lay still.
Yet moments later, it twitched.
Not resurrection—something behind was pushing it.
"Roar roar roar roar—!"
Amid furious roars, the forehead-crushed corpse sank and floated in the etheric liquid.
But two identical lower demon gods squeezed through the fissure!
And more followed—
More limbs and giant-eyed heads forced their way in!
Finally…
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
"Crash—!"
Primal Mud flooded the net path, staining the clear etheric liquid murky.
Countless lower demon gods erupted with it!
As the demon gods pressed inward, the "net path" walls collapsed!
