Demon Queen Rebirth: I Reincarnated as a Living Armor?!
Chapter 693 - What Is... That Thing?-----
After persuading the Great Crystal Tree to speak out, she began explaining many things regarding the history of this world and what had happened in all these years.
"The first two Erveronians name Adam and Eve had many children, and our mothers also created more pairings after that, filling the continents with them… they grew thanks to their aid, and the two finally had a meaning in their life other than the desolation of simply looking at a planet slowly develop. They saw their civilization grow over the hundreds and then thousands of years, it was a beautiful era, which was often referred as the Age of the Goddesses, where my two mothers actively descended into the surface of the planet to help the civilizations. Even political problems were resolved by the two over many years, bringing peace and prosperity to the people…" said the tree.
"But then…?" asked Veronica.
"But then… That thing appeared…." Said the tree.
The Crystal Tree suddenly fell silent as she mentioned the "thing that appeared", could this be the same thing that she said the giant tree down there was holding down with its giant might and size?
They could only wonder this as they pondered this question, the crystal tree finally reached this narrative, after having introduced how the twin merged together and divided their flesh into various children, the first Erveronians who populated the world with their knowledge and intelligence, forming many civilizations in the process…
After such a thing, the twins continuously descended from time to time to guide their children, as they advanced and made all sorts of magical inventions, technology ended becoming very advanced and the race of intelligent people was prospering in the age of the goddesses, as the two actively took a role in politics and the like, without letting countries wage war nor abuse their people.
However, after thousands of years, not everything would last nor remain the same, the Erveronians were greeted by a gigantic catastrophe of cataclysmic proportions that emerged in the planet…
"That entity, the being that came from Outer Space, this invader known as The Hivemind." Said the crystal tree.
"T-The Hivemind?" asked the trio.
"You've been living inside of worlds enclosed in special Spatial Walls, Kritias, both of the Kritias that my mothers memories knew about were not the same as this planet, which was in the middle of outer space, not protected by Spatial Walls that isolated it from the dangers of the outside universe… this universe is vast and incredibly dangerous, so vast, dark, and empty, that it feels like anything or anyone could come here if they wanted and take away everything you hold dear." Said the crystal tree.
"T-That's…" muttered Veronica.
"True…" sighed Ervas.
"You were not able to predict that such a thing would happen because you didn't took into consideration the vastness and dangerousness of the universe… The Hivemind emerged roughly almost a million years ago, this being presented itself in the form of a mass of wiggling red flesh with several yellow eyes across its body, it had taken an enormous size as it used a large asteroid as its shell, this being was but the beginning of the greatest catastrophe and the war that led the Erveronians to almost extinction…" sighed the crystal tree.
"So a powerful alien race invaded our world… while we were not even here to do anything…?" asked Veronica.
"But what happened after the invasion?" asked Ervas.
"Well…"
The Crystal Tree continued her narrative. The Hivemind had emerged roughly a million years ago in the outer space, being seen by astrologist at first as a wandering comet, but that was in fact a living organism of gargantuan properties. This fearsome alien species was actually a plague of beings that roamed the world in look for life-rich planets to devour and assimilate into their greater flesh and Hivemind.
This entity was slowly approaching the planet and the people of that time had done everything they possibly could to fend off this threat before it was to reach the plant and deal any significant damage. However, it was all for naught, the creature's size was too big, any magic ended being useless, even the strongest magical technology was not able to even put a dent, these monsters were not just flesh, they had evolved over eons across the universe and were able to survive in the vacuum of space and had assimilated billions of lifeforms, reusing their genetic material, and shaping themselves into perfect survivalist like anything else there has ever existed.
Their skin could even survive atomic bombs like nothing, they were able to absorb radiation and nourish themselves, even to the point that they could absorb plasma if they were to run low on energy near a large star. The outer universe was also filled with magic-using entities, and after absorbing the genes and memories of countless beings the Hivemind had developed magic defense protocols and abilities, defending itself against the deadliest spells with its powerful magical defensive skin, automatic rune conjuration and powerful magical barriers across its body…
When it reached the large magical fleets resembling spaceships made by the Erveronians, it fired magical lasers at them and completely blasted them all into pieces, while resisting all kinds of damage inflicted towards them.
The goddesses had to eventually intervene at the end, even when they were giving the chance to their children to defend themselves using all the power, they had cultivated through this time… they had to fight as well.
The two goddesses had an arduous fight against the monstrous entity, although they had grown very strong over the years due to the prayers of their citizens and they reached Supreme Goddess Realm, the two were doing their best to damage even if a little bit this monstrous being, the Hivemind knew no bounds to its power, seemingly being an invisible and perfect being capable of adapting to anything… it even slowly adapted to absorbing divine energy and it began to slowly receive less and less damage from the goddesses attacks and assaults, the goddesses were left with very few options…
