Chapter 323: Three Days Later, the Planet Merges with the God Domain!
.....
To be honest, Seito's divine faction was no longer lacking in ordinary military strength, especially since he had recruited three major races all at once just yesterday!
However, he absolutely could not allow the loyal soldiers and knights of the Snezhnaya Empire to be left behind and phased out.
Because of this, Seito thought of Sora!
Yes, Sora!
He already had a plan in mind. Once Sora's strength increased enough in the future, Seito would help him advance to the Main God realm. When that time came, Sora could open up his own divine kingdom and establish his own divine faction.
At the very beginning, Sora could choose a specific group of people to serve as the foundational strength of his faction. After that, anyone else who wished to become a god and enter his faction would have to pass through a step-by-step examination.
Right as Seito was lost in thought, a massive voice echoed across the sky!
[Server-Wide Announcement]
[Countdown to the merger of the Planet and the God Domain: Three Days!]
...
The sudden system announcement left every single player in the God Domain completely stunned.
"This... the Planet is about to merge with the God Domain?!"
"Holy crap! That's way too fast!"
"Why haven't I felt anything different in the real world?"
"Bro, you still don't feel it? Aren't there already tons of monsters roaming the real world?"
"No, you don't get what I mean. I'm talking about the moon and the sun outside the Planet—they don't seem to have changed at all."
"Huh? You're totally right!"
"..."
Players everywhere cried out in shock. It hadn't been long since the War of the Gods system unlocked, and now the merger was already beginning! The speed of it was completely beyond anyone's imagination!
Along with this news, a major question surfaced in everyone's minds.
Although massive changes were happening inside the Planet, everything outside the planet looked perfectly normal. As always, the sun and the moon remained in their exact same positions. This phenomenon seemed to prove that the Planet hadn't actually moved at all.
Every player had already guessed where the Planet would end up once it merged into the God Domain. The location of the merger had to be the War of the Gods domain! After all, as the God of Space, Seito's massive faction didn't even have a home planet yet, which felt a bit unnatural. As long as the Planet merged into the War of the Gods domain, everything would make perfect sense.
However, the fact that the sun and moon hadn't changed in the slightest left everyone completely baffled.
...
Back inside the Snezhnaya imperial palace.
Seito: "???"
Sae Chabashira: "???"
The ringing system announcement left both Seito and Sae completely frozen. The Planet was actually going to merge with the God Domain in just three days?! This speed was simply too fast!
Seito was a bit dazed. Although he knew the merger process would speed up, this was a bit much.
"Is the Planet going to appear directly inside the War of the Gods domain?" Sae asked herself out loud, as if she had just realized something.
"Yes," Seito nodded. "I'll head outside the Planet in a moment to see what exactly is happening with the world."
"Mhm," Sae nodded in agreement.
BOOM!
RUMBLE!!
Right at that moment, an incredibly terrifying and shocking aura suddenly erupted from the bodies of Haruno Yukinoshita and Shizuka Hiratsuka! The two women opened their eyes at the same time and stood up from the floor!
Seeing them like this, Seito flashed a bright smile.
Excellent! Another two gods had successfully reached the peak of the God-rank! Right now, the overall strength of the Space divine faction was incredibly powerful!
"Huh? The Planet is merging with the God Domain?" Before she could even carefully feel the new power inside her body, Shizuka saw the system announcement pop up right in front of her eyes, leaving her completely stunned.
"Yes," Seito nodded. "The announcement literally just came out. How do you two feel right now?"
"Right now?" Shizuka and Haruno looked at each other and smiled.
"I feel amazing!"
"That's right! Compared to the early stage of the God-rank, the strength of the peak God-rank is on a completely different level!"
Their answers were exactly as Seito had expected.
"Let's go, we should log out first," Seito said, logging out of the game before anyone else. The three women followed his lead and logged out right behind him.
Back at Sobu High.
The sudden awakening of Seito and the three women naturally drew a lot of eyes, but nobody said a word. Aside from the students who were still going through their physical tests, most people were holding their phones, staring intently at the news.
Obviously, the news of the Planet's merger announced by the God Domain system had already claimed the top spot on the trending list! That was why everyone was glued to their screens.
"I'm going to take a quick trip into outer space," Seito told Haruno and the others.
"Be careful," Sae reminded him.
"Mhm," Seito nodded. In the next split second, his body flashed and vanished entirely from everyone's sight.
...
In the deep void of space...
Whoosh!
With a single spatial movement, Seito instantly appeared in the mysterious, glowing expanse of outer space. He floated quietly in the empty void, spreading his spatial perception outward to closely observe the state of the Planet.
Seito shared the exact same doubts as the other players in the God Domain. The Planet was supposed to merge into the War of the Gods domain, so the fact that the sun and moon hadn't changed was definitely a bit strange.
After sensing the surroundings for a few moments, a look of surprise washed over Seito's face.
"The entire solar system is moving together?!"
Yes! Just a second ago, Seito's spatial perception had completely wrapped around the entire solar system in an instant, rapidly spreading even further outward. Right as he wanted to extend his sensing range across the entire galaxy, he found the answer.
The Planet was indeed moving! But aside from Seito, practically no one else could feel it. This was because it wasn't just the Planet moving—every single planet within the solar system was moving along with it!
At this point, Seito came to a solid conclusion. The God Domain system wasn't just bringing the Planet into the game; it was merging the entire solar system into the domain!
"Looking at it this way, this God Domain system is actually pretty amazing," Seito thought, rubbing his chin as he pondered.
The solar system would arrive in the War of the Gods domain in three days. If he didn't personally guard the solar system when that happened, a lot of ancient gods would probably try to come over and cause trouble!
But it was fine. Seito was already planning to start hunting down those gods tomorrow anyway, so he didn't need to worry too much about this minor issue.
Pulling his thoughts back, Seito's body flashed, and he left outer space.
Back on the Planet, inside Chiba City's Sobu High School.
Whoosh—!
Seito's figure materialized once again right in front of Haruno and the other two women.
"What's the actual situation with the Planet right now?" Haruno asked instinctively the moment she saw him return.
