_______________________________________________________________
‘ During this time, fleets from other heavens visited the eighth heaven one after the other. During which the leaders of the Eighth Heaven were very frightened, particularly anxious, and even much more uneasy than the time they found the great serpent wandering through their territory.
To them, these fleets from other heavens seemed to be more terrifying than the great serpent.
“Doron, there are a lot of powerful fleets coming to our heaven.”
On the campus, a young man said to his companion Doron. Both of them were outstanding students of the Eighth heaven’s branch of Sakura Academy. It can be said that they are close buddies.
At the beginning, he and several other people came to Doron’s bedroom to ask him about the great serpent
This young man is called Baha, one of Doron’s few best friends along with Drummond.
“Yeah.”
Doron nodded and said. “Baha, it seems that the people above have come to the same conjecture, that the great serpent is an infant high-level pollutant.”
“What can we do?”
Baha said with scrunched up brows.
“Anyway, that pollutant is not something we can deal with. In fact, I wonder if those big people can find it and deal with it.”
“I heard that high-level pollutants can even destroy galaxies at full power. It’s said that if they are angered enough, they can cause great harm to an entire heaven!”
“Ruin No. 18 was formed after an extremely powerful high-level pollutant went mad and raged across the cosmos, affecting many heavens.”
After hearing Baha’s words, Doron nodded.
The space they currently live in is already extremely large, composed of nine heavens with one being bigger than the other, and the great void between each heaven.
However, it can only be regarded as the tip of the iceberg in the universe because there are many huge and mysterious spaces outside.
These huge spaces might be empty, but this doesn’t mean that there is nothing at all, there are many areas where stars are just starting to evolve.
All kinds of cosmic dust and various gases interact with each other to form new stars, or some space meteorites stray to these spaces, then settle down there, colliding with other meteorites and new celestial bodies, forming new stars and planets. These spaces can be said to be newborn universes, although very small.
In such unique areas, some special elements were born.
In addition, some of these spaces used to be the hometown of some powerful civilizations, but because of unknown disasters, they were broken into pieces, then transformed into ruins.
Including those special spaces, there are 18 known ruins.
These ruins usually have the same size as powerful heaven. Some even larger than that. Many powerful civilizations tried to investigate these ruins, but they could hardly detect anything.
No one knows, what is inside those ruins?
Maybe it’s a civilized place like them, or maybe it’s an empty and lonely space.
Many of these ruins are created due to natural causes, but there are some ruins created due to pollutants, Ruins No. 18 mentioned by Baha is just such a ruin.
This happened more than a thousand years ago, Ruins No.18 was still part of a powerful heaven at that time, but a crazy high-level pollutant appeared there.
It caused many unimaginable catastrophes, eventually breaking that heaven into many parts.
“Since there is a high-level pollutant in its infancy, does this mean that it has parents? And if so, where are they?”
Baha’s face was filled with a deep worry.
What he wanted to convey was that since a juvenile high-level pollutant appeared in their eighth heaven, does this mean that there are other high-level pollutants in their heaven? Still an adult one?
Doron smiled bitterly when Baha said this.
He also thought of this, and he is absolutely sure that the leaders of the eighth heaven thought of this, but the situation is completely beyond their control.
If they dared to stop the investigation fleets from other heavens from investigating the giant serpent, he is sure that they will be greeted with the war fleets of the other heavens the next day.
The situation between the various heavens is very different from the peace and cooperation on the surface.
Under the attack of a high-level pollutant and the fleets of several other powerful heavens, their eighth heaven will be reduced to ruins!
“Hah…”
Doron sighed helplessly, then continued moving forward.
On the other side, in the main domain building on the central planet of the Eighth Heaven, Otto was sitting at a conference table, and beside him, there were many people.
All of the people that were sitting at the conference table were frowning.
The people present are basically the leaders of the Eighth Heaven, sovereigns over large domains. Strictly speaking, Otto is not eligible to participate in this meeting.
However, it’s different now, because Otto is one of the few that fought the great serpent and survived, he was involved in this meeting.
The man who presided over the meeting was an old man with gray hair and many wrinkles. Apart from his extremely pale skin, and his height of over 2 meters, he looked no different from a normal human.
“Everyone, let’s talk about it, the fifth heaven is preparing to send a fleet to us.”
The old man sitting at the main seat said to the rest of the people in the conference room.
Others frowned upon hearing this. A middle-aged man sarcastically said.
“These guys are really polite, knowing how to greet us, the owners of this domain before entering.”
“Hah, we have no way, who made them stronger than us.”
Another person calmly spoke, but they all had a sneer on their faces.
The old man presiding over the meeting shook his head slightly, then looked at Otto and said.
“Otto, what do you think?”
“My lord, can I ask how many battleships they deployed in the fleets they sent?”
Otto pondered for a moment before asking the old man.
“The seventh heaven sent a fleet of tens of thousands of battleships. The sixth heaven sent only 3,000 battleships, and the fifth heaven sent 1,000 battleships.”
After hearing the old man’s words, Otto nodded. For now, it seems that the fleet they sent over is not too big, but once the giant serpent is confirmed to be a high-level pollutant in its infancy, things will completely change. The number of battleships and their power will completely skyrocket.
“My lord, what are their requirements?”
Otto asked again.
“They hope that we can help them find traces of the great serpent. At the same time, we must send a large fleet to assist them once they find the location of the great serpent.”
