Chapter 567: The Great Shift
Three months ago, an unimaginable and shocking global plan appeared before the eyes of all the people of Noah.
It was called The Great Shift.
The Tower organization made a promise: they could move everyone from the World of Noah to another world, a better, more perfect, and more suitable place to live.
This sounded like a fairy tale, but the ones spreading the news were the saints of the Babel Tower. In the eyes of the people of Noah, that made it a truth.
No one doubted them.
The Babel Tower gave everyone three months to decide: would they leave the World of Noah, or stay in a crumbling and broken world?
It was a decision that could no longer be ignored.
The decision was voluntary, of course. The Babel Tower wouldn’t simply demand people leave their homes.
Amy had prepared countless promotional videos, showcasing the new world.
Picturesque landscapes, detailed data on climate, temperature, soil, and geography…
It was a world that seemed to promise a utopia—Yalasi.
“Yalasi” was described as a paradise—a world like a garden, where every season felt like spring. There were no natural disasters, no terrifying dangers.
A world with enough resources to sustain trillions of people.
For many in Noah, Yalasi seemed like a dream come true.
In Annottales, where the Noahs struggled to survive, people cried. They didn’t want to wait any longer.
They wanted to leave immediately.
However, the people of Tatsumi City were different.
Their lives were already a form of utopia, so the move to a new world wouldn’t change much.
But the Babel Tower had warned that staying in Noah posed great risks to their survival.
How should one choose?
In the end, most of the people didn’t hesitate.
The pressure to survive led them to agree to leave, journeying toward the unfamiliar, the unknown.
They trusted the Babel Tower.
They had believed in the Savior for so long, their faith unwavering.
Now, three months had passed.
The time for decisions had passed, and the consequences were about to unfold.
“In this world of life, almost everyone chose to leave,” Maryse observed quietly, her gaze on the bustling streets.
Tomorrow would mark the beginning of the Great Migration.
Tatsumi City would be the first to leave the World of Noah.
Today, the streets were filled with people, gathering to reminisce.
Some created small crafts shaped like the Babel Tower and placed them near the fountain.
Others painted pictures as tributes to the city.
Some filmed and took photos, capturing memories.
Tatsumi City’s history was relatively short, just a few hundred years.
Yet for its people, it was their whole life, spanning generations.
Maryse stood quietly, feeling an unexpected loneliness despite the city’s vibrancy.
“Maryse, what’s wrong?”
Irena, the maid, approached her.
Irena was no longer dressed in a maid outfit but in ordinary women’s clothing.
Fifteen years had passed, and Irena, now in her thirties, looked mature and elegant.
By Irena’s side stood a little girl, short-haired and delicate.
That was Irena’s daughter.
Traditionally, the daughter would serve the Augustus family, but with the changing times, she would become friends with Maryse’s child, if she had one.
Maryse smiled softly, but a hint of sadness lingered.
“I just feel a little reluctant. I’ve lived in the Giant Hive for a while before, but it was only a temporary move, like a journey.”
“But this time, it’s different. It’s not me leaving Tatsumi City. It’s all of you leaving Noah.”
Irena offered a reassuring smile.
“You can always visit us, even if it’s a bit troublesome.”
Maryse nodded.
“It would be alright. Otherwise, if I never see you again, I would definitely cry.”
Irena chuckled softly.
“You’re one of the protectors of the world, and yet you talk about crying… you’re even older than I am.”
Maryse laughed, her tone light.
Over the years, she had changed.
She was no longer as cynical, no longer as envious.
But some things—some beliefs—remained unshaken.
“So, what will the Babel Tower do after the Great Migration?” Irena asked.
“We will go to a place called the Tylor civilization,” Maryse revealed.
“There, we will acquire the power to revive the Savior, and we will also bring back that person along with Mu Ling.”
Irena nodded thoughtfully.
“I see… I may not understand it all, but Maryse, remember, you have many precious things still worth cherishing. Don’t give up on yourself.”
Maryse smiled, though there was a shadow in her eyes.
“Do you think I would easily give up?”
Irena said nothing, but her gaze lingered.
There was a faint worry in her expression.
Would he really come back?
And if he did, would he respond to her?
The day of the Great Shift arrived.
Amy, as always, appeared in Tatsumi City.
She sat in her usual position—inside a humanoid mechanical body, no longer flesh and blood, but something far beyond.
She had ascended, in her own way.
The collective teleportation device had been further perfected.
Now, it stood next to the World Tree, a massive disc radiating brilliant golden light.
The towering World Tree, the pride of Tatsumi City, stretched toward the clouds, a monument to the Savior’s legacy.
“Let’s begin.”
Alan stood before the massive device, calmly discussing the final details with Amy.
In the past three months, the two had worked tirelessly to ensure the success of the migration.
Moving billions of people was no easy task.
But with the Omnic’s computational power backing them, the impossible seemed achievable.
“Once upon a time…”
Amy activated the device.
In an instant, a surge of golden light poured from the World Tree.
Golden beams shot out from the disc, enveloping Tatsumi City.
Maryse watched in silence, as golden light streamed around Irena and her daughter.
But the light passed right by her.
The process lasted for five minutes.
Afterward, Tatsumi City—almost the entire city—was gone.
But the warriors of Babel Tower remained.
