Chapter 341: Intelligent Races? Human Race? Demon Race? Vegetation Race?
....
Seito had a strange look on his face. Just a moment ago, a string of system prompts had appeared right in front of him.
The notifications read:
[System Alert]: Space God-King Seito, the planet under your control—Earth—has officially integrated into the God Domain.
[System Alert]: There are three major intelligent races currently occupying your planet:
The Human Race
The Demon Race
The Vegetation Race
[System Alert]: These are the primary races you are required to manage.
[System Alert]: Additionally, a non-intelligent race exists beneath your planet: the Zerg Race! They are the natural enemies of the three major races.
Staring at the floating notifications, Seito was caught off guard. He certainly hadn't expected Earth to change into this kind of structure after joining the domain.
"What are the specific races?" Amou asked from the side.
"Humans, Demons, and the Vegetation Race," Seito replied.
These were the factions he was officially tasked to rule over. Of course, there was also that highly destructive, unmanageable hazard—the Zerg!
Seito quickly realized that the system had deliberately set up a common enemy for his home world. After all, if the three major races were left to grow their populations without any outside pressure, they would inevitably end up destroying the planet's ecosystem.
"The Demon Race and the Vegetation Race?" Amou muttered, looking down at Earth to sense the global energy shifts.
As of right now, the physical landscape of the planet hadn't suffered any chaotic shifts. The entire solar system had been anchored cleanly into its new position. The only massive change was the sudden presence of a giant, glowing world resting right alongside Earth's orbit—the Game Star.
Not only were the people on Earth staring up in absolute awe at the Game Star, but the population of the Game Star was equally glued to their telescopes, marveling at their new neighbor.
Seito focused his gaze on his home world below, spreading his spatial awareness to run a quick diagnostic of the planet's status. However, after just a single sweep, his brows knit together, and he fell silent.
The three major intelligent races on the surface had already started a fierce, chaotic war against each other across multiple continents.
This development was completely within Seito's expectations. Now that the world had expanded and upgraded, every faction was desperate to claim the best territories and resource nodes for themselves!
However... the main issue causing Seito to frown wasn't the surface brawl between the three major races. It was the nightmare brewing deep within the subterranean crust of the planet—the Zerg!
Every single unit in the Zerg swarms boasted a massive physical size, and their sheer numbers were overwhelming! If the three surface races kept blindly wasting their forces on a pointless civil war, it wouldn't take long for the subterranean Zerg swarms to break through and wipe them all out.
With that thought in mind, Seito gathered his divine energy, intending to project a localized spatial wipe to permanently erase the Zerg from existence.
[System Warning]: The system strongly advises the Space God-King against erasing the Zerg Race.
"Hmm?" Seito paused, his thoughts freezing for a second before he asked back, "Why is that?"
[System Log]: The Zerg swarm serves as a necessary counterweight to balance the progression of the three major intelligent races. Furthermore, Zerg meat possesses high nutrient density and cultivation value, serving as the ultimate replacement for the impending global livestock food crisis.
[System Log]: Should the Space God-King insist on eliminating the Zerg faction right now, the lack of a common threat will likely accelerate a total war of mutual destruction among the three surface races.
Currently, the animals of Earth were undergoing a massive wave of genetic mutation, unlocking ancient bloodlines left and right. They had essentially evolved into the legendary demons and mythical beasts of ancient lore. As a result, the traditional livestock humans relied on had turned into intelligent, self-aware spiritual beings.
The plant domain was doing slightly better, given that not every single blade of grass or tree had the ability to mutate and awaken human-level intelligence.
Since the system's explanation was thoroughly logical, Seito instantly finalized his plan. He couldn't let the three surface races bleed each other dry; instead, he would force them to turn their attention outward and clear the Zerg threat themselves!
With that thought, Seito's expression turned regal and authoritative. He funneled his divine power, projecting a thunderous voice that echoed directly in the mind of every living being across Earth:
"I am the Space God-King, Seito!"
"And I am the supreme Main God of this planet!"
"Effective immediately, all three factions are ordered to execute a total, unconditional ceasefire! Internal civil war is strictly forbidden! Should anyone dare to violate this divine order, I will personally descend to strike down their entire bloodline!"
"Now, let the primary leaders or the absolute strongest fighters of the three major races step through the warp gates and report directly to the Space Divine Sanctuary!"
The moment the words left Seito's lips, his figure dissolved into a flash of light, warping straight to the grand hall of the Space Divine Faction. Down on the surface of Earth, the chaotic fights between humans, mutated beasts, and awakened flora ground to a sudden halt.
The supreme Main God had spoken. The sheer force backing Seito's voice was tied directly to the core laws of the planet; its reality was indisputable, forcing the faction heads to immediately regain their composure.
In the Dragon Kingdom (China), Capital City.
Inside Elder Yang's private office.
Elder Yang sat behind his mahogany desk, his brows drawn into a deep frown as he rapidly went through a mountain of top-tier intelligence reports.
Tracking maps showed that the vast majority of populations across foreign nations had been wiped out by the initial wave of high-level BOSS spawns. Even the scattered clusters of survivors clinging to life in the wilderness were on a fast track toward extinction.
Furthermore, according to the latest satellite data, an immense number of foreign citizens had simply vanished into columns of light the exact second Earth finished its integration into the God Domain!
Regarding this bizarre anomaly, Elder Yang had already formed a solid guess. Those people had likely realized their personal stats weren't high enough to survive the brutal new reality of Earth; consequently, they had given up and pledged allegiance to foreign gods, fleeing the planet entirely.
Elder Yang didn't care about their departure in the slightest. As far as he was concerned, as long as the safety and order of the Eastern Country remained secure, the rest of the world was secondary.
Whoosh—!
Right at that moment, a brilliant portal of golden light materialized out of thin air in the center of the office.
"Hmm?"
Staring at the sudden gateway, Elder Yang paused for a second. The dense, sacred wave of spatial divine energy coming from the portal clearly signaled that this was a direct passage leading straight to the sanctuary of the Space Divine Faction.
Without a second's delay, he stood up from his chair.
Seito opening a dedicated portal right inside his private office was a clear signal: he wanted Elder Yang to act as the official representative of the human race to negotiate a global treaty with the leaders of the other newly risen factions.
Elder Yang confidently stepped toward the glowing portal of light without hesitation.
Inside the Space Divine Faction Sanctuary...
At this moment, Seito sat casually upon the towering central throne of the grand hall. Right in front of him, warp gates began to ripple one after another as towering figures stepped through the light.
First to emerge was Elder Yang, dressed in his neat, classic Zhongshan suit.
Immediately following him, three exceptionally striking individuals stepped through the adjacent light gates. They were dressed in elegant, traditional Han-style clothing, yet every line of their posture exuded a raw, untamed wildness.
Comprising two men and one woman, these three were the absolute leaders of the newly awakened Demon Race.
In the very next second, a final silhouette confidently walked into the hall.
It was a woman whose breathtaking beauty was astonishing. A cascade of long, golden-blonde hair fell over her shoulders, glowing with a brilliant light. Her long, statuesque legs were wrapped in pristine white stockings.
She wore a magnificent, emerald-green gown that perfectly traced the curves of her figure. She was a vision of absolute aesthetic perfection. This entity was none other than the supreme leader of the Vegetation Race!
Seito casually swept his gaze across them, pulling up their system windows to inspect their stats.
[Azure Dragon of the Deep Abyssal Sea]
Rank: Level 100
HP: 20,000,000,000 / 20,000,000,000
[Vermilion Bird of the Southern Flame]
Rank: Level 100
HP: 10,000,000,000 / 10,000,000,000
[Black Tortoise of the Northern Netherworld]
Rank: Level 100
HP: 60,000,000,000 / 60,000,000,000
These blocks summarized the baseline stats of the three apex Demon Race leaders. After reading them over, Seito shifted his focus, locking his gaze onto the blonde woman representing the Vegetation Race.
[The World Tree]
Rank: Level 100
HP: 100,000,000,000 / 100,000,000,000
"???"
Staring blankly at the staggering string of zeros lining her total health pool, Seito was momentarily left speechless.
