“Help us! G.o.d!”
All gathered in divine palaces, churches, and beneath the statues of G.o.ds, waiting for the final judgement. Elemental turbulences and glaring lights of all colors from the distant astral world glimmered and shone bright in the darkness.
Elemental turbulences in the sky broke up clouds, or sometimes raised violent storms, striking the ground.
The chaos in the day clamed down in the night. In the dawn of the next day, people realized all the horrifying scenes had vanished. It was like waking from a nightmare. Now, everything was gone.
“We… survived?”, said the priest standing in the divine palace as he gazed at the rising sun on the horizon. He could not believe it.
Fiery red sun rose from the ground, lighting up the horizon, as well as the entire world.
Light was sprinkled on everyone, bring warmth and hope to them.
One after one, they stood up, gazing at the morning sun. There was never a day that they felt sun was so important, warm, full of hope and brightness.
“I see light!”, said a young boy. He jumped onto the bench on the square, and lost in his thoughts.
“It's not light. It's hope and salvation, it's the future!”, said an old clergy in the crowd/
“We have survived? We survived?” More only had these words in their minds.
“It's gone. The Judgement Day did not come. G.o.ds had forgiven our sins!”, whimpered a young gentleman with joy as he held his lover in his arms.
“The final judgement did not come! We washed away our sins and were reborn! The old times is now past, we have entered a new era!”
All cheered and jumped for joy, running on the streets in thrill. They threw their hats or scarves to the sky, or hugged their families and children, or prayed to the clergy and G.o.ds, thanking G.o.ds' forgive.
At this moment, snow fell down from the sky, announcing the beginning of winter.
Rhode Bitwall.
As Rhode Bitwall merged into Maria's world, lights shone from Rhode Bitwall. It had slowly become a part of Maria's world. Even the chaotic rules had a.s.similated into Maria's world.
The ecosystem inside Rhode Bitwall started amazing transformations. Greens grew on the floating islands. Lives started to appear together with oxygen.
Indigenous lives in the bitwall had become a part of Maria's world, with the impress of Maria's world on them.
As lights flowed and gathered, the divine personality of the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Exploration emerged from the lights. Then, a giant divine shadow stood within Rhode Bitwall.
At the same time, the Star Kingdom of the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Exploration appeared outside Rhode Bitwall. The huge star was just next to Rhode Bitwall, with clear outline and shadow.
The divine shadow looked to Rhode Bitwall, which was undergoing drastic changes.
“I succeeded? How?”
Rhode could not figure out why. However, a figure emerged in his mind. Rhode made all kinds of a.s.sumptions and connections in his heart as his expressions changed. At last, he felt relieved and said, “Overall, it's not bad. Just like in the fairy tales, there is always a happy ending.”
Rhode left the half bitwall. The giant divine shadow stayed close to the bitwall, browsing the entire Maria's world. It was the first time he looked down the world from above. He never felt the world was so beautiful and breathtaking.
He was looking down to the beautiful ground as the world was recovering to order. Everything was returning to what they looked like before Judgement Day.
Winter had pa.s.sed, and spring came!
Ice melted and all awakened for the spring!
Farmers reclaimed fields, workers returned to workshops, shops reopened, and streets were once again busy and lively. Chaos went away, order took the stage again.
Steam locomotives whistled as rus.h.i.+ng to the distant. Merchant s.h.i.+ps sailed to the ocean from the docks. Aircrafts floated above the clouds.
At last, Rhode returned to his own Star Kingdom, fulfilled his last destiny and task on earth. From now on, he shall fulfill his responsibilities as a G.o.d.
Year 723 on San Calendar.
In the divine palace of the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Exploration in Maples city, Urabell province, Sumerian Kingdom.
The divine palace of the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Exploration was no longer the same as it was decades ago. It had gone through huge changes. There was no longer any walls, only enormous pillars and glorious ceilings.
It looked like an open square with ceilings of the divine palace, as well as many divine statues and paintings.
Areas were divided within. The huge statute of G.o.d stood in the center, together with six huge portals.
The portals are circular in shape. Some were 10 meters tall, looking like a door for giants. Some were only about 3 meters tall, allowing only two to go in side by side at the same time. On the squares in the front of the portals, many waited sitting on stone benches.
The entire divine palace of the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Exploration was almost like a station of the past, but much more advanced. It was because every usage of the portal costed a fortune. Which could not be afforded by commoners.
Priests of the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Exploration guarded the portals. Each portal was of different purpose. Some were specifically for transporting merchandises, some stored objects in Inner s.p.a.ce, and some transported people…
“Choo-choo!”
A silvery steam locomotive travelled from distant on the rails, across the portal, vanished in the transparent swirl. It travelled across distance, arrived on the main city on another continent in the blink of an eye.
Although the technology in portals had some huge developments, without the portals in the divine palaces, which relied on G.o.dly powers and the force of the world rules of Maria's world, alchemists and masters still could not produce stable portals which could be used in the long term.
Theories in s.p.a.cecraft grew completed gradually. Masters, alchemists and professionals started to explore special s.p.a.ces inside the bitwall. Some advanced masters even tried to create their own s.p.a.ce witchcraft garden in the bitwall. Though no one had succeeded for now, as the attempts carried out one after another, there would be a success eventually.
Nevertheless, all explorations of s.p.a.ce and bitwall must be guarded and protected by the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Exploration. Once the wrinkles inside the bitwall unfolded, the s.p.a.ce was even larger than the main world. One could never get out once lost within.
Moreover, every storage s.p.a.ce, s.p.a.ce bubble and inner s.p.a.ce must be register in the divine palace of the G.o.d of s.p.a.ce and Exploration before use. Everything was under the guardian of G.o.d.
Comparing to before, Rhode Bitwall had become the basecamp for the church of special worlds, s.p.a.ces and exploration.
Cities were built on every floating island. Special bridges were built between islands for communications. Cities of masters and professionals were created. For those in Marias' world, it was like a supernatural kingdom on the sky or another world in the tales.
The connection between Rhode Bitwall and Maria's world grew stronger. As Rhode Bitwall was a.s.similated, it moved deeper into Maria's world, and closer to the main world.
Perhaps, after centuries, Rhode Bitwall would be completely a.s.similated into Maria's world, becoming a continent within.
By continuously creating half bitwalls or catching half bitwalls, Maria's world shall become larger and stronger. One day, it would become an enormous world of G.o.ds, beyond all imagination.
