Chapter 657: War in Subterranean World: Stone Monument

"I\'ll take this transmission talisman..."

Souta muttered before placing the talisman in his pocket.

If his memories were right, the army of the Mechanic Country would\'ve arrived on this continent sooner. They would show this land what a powerful force they were.

The army would dismantle several giant organizations on this continent.

This also means that the entire world was changing. The chaos would start soon and no one would be able to prevent it.

Souta shook his head and put those thoughts in the back of his mind.

He just killed an executive but he felt nothing. The executive was at her death\'s door so it was an easy feat for him. If she was at her peak, then the outcome would change.

"I need to plan the next battle..."

He narrowed his eyes. If the poison bombs exploded, then it would kill hundreds of warriors in the nation. It would also affect him in one way or another.

The Red Matter Association was dangerous. He had to thoroughly destroy them.

If he wasn\'t here to stop the executive, then the warriors would be done. It was good that he tried to find the device to remove the sealing runes.

Earlier after he left the battlefield in the western region, Souta head to the place where he sensed the strongest enemy.

Why would he want to find the strongest person on the enemy side? It\'s because the strongest person was likely an executive of the Red Matter and they had a huge authority over the entire organization. Having a huge authority means that they knew how to undo the sealing runes. After all, those kinds of people were the ones overseeing this plan.

It\'s easy to find those types of people since the battle was huge and everyone felt the mana fluctuations in the atmosphere.

Souta found Banni and Shiela fighting. Of course, he didn\'t join the battle as it was too dangerous so he simply observed them from a distance. It was then that another executive appeared and the previous executive escaped the battle.

Although everything happens instantly, his eyes managed to capture it. He saw where the woman went so he slowly followed her while hiding his aura to avoid him getting sensed by the other party.

It went smoothly for him as he found her in this old laboratory in the southern region. Then, he killed her before she activated the poison bombs.

"They\'ve planned this perfectly but they\'ve made a mistake. They didn\'t know that my eyes could see through the escape route of this dead woman."

If it was other warriors, then they wouldn\'t be able to follow Shiela. It was only because of his special eyes that he could follow her.

Crack!

A sound of a glass shattering echoed throughout the entire nation.

Souta couldn\'t help but look up. He muttered, "These sounds... The barrier is finally broken. The warriors from the Fourth Set are surging in."

With this, the warriors would counterattack. The sealing runes were gone and the warriors from Fourth Set were here. It would only be a matter of time before they defeated the forces of the Red Matter Association in this country.

This was not the final battlefield. The rest of the Red Matter Association was still lurking in the dark.

Souta walked around the laboratory as he observed every little thing here. He reached out his hand and picked a notebook from a table.

He opened it and scanned the contents of the notebook.

"The four nations again... But this place clearly had one nation. Does this place have another passage?"

Souta rubbed his chin. Maybe, that\'s the reason why they couldn\'t find the base of the Red Matter Association.

He spends a few minutes looking at the book trying to find an answer.

Unfortunately, he couldn\'t find what he was looking for.

The passage to the other three nations.

Souta turned his head and glanced at the door on the corner. "As for the final battle, I will sit on the sideline and arrange everything to counter the Red Matter."

He placed down the notebook in his hand and walked towards the door. Then, he entered the room and saw a stone monument.

"What\'s this...?"

The stone monument was situated in the center of the room. There were various machines around it but nothing was connected to it.

It was alone in the center.

Ancient writings were written on it and it looks like it contained some unknown special powers.

Souta approached it and placed his palm on the surface of the monument.

\'It\'s similar to the stone tablet in Sub-World Greia...\' Saya said.

"You mean, this stone monument contained a legacy?" Souta was surprised at her words.

Sub-World Greia. The homeworld of Yenxa and also the place where Isabella got the legacy of Travksy, the God of Hunt.

\'No, the energy you feel is only a lingering energy from the legacy. The legacy was gone so someone must\'ve cleared the test of a god.\' Saya paused for a moment before she continued, \'This place must\'ve contained a living labyrinth before.\'

"I see..." Souta nodded before he focused his attention on the writings on the monument. "Can you translate the words for me, Saya?"

I\'ve built this place for the future of the people... Using my powers, I\'ve folded the space here and created this world. To the people who will find it in the future, use my gifts to get stronger and achieve godhood. We\'ve failed before so I don\'t want the next generation to suffer the same as us.

The catastrophe that hit the entire Imperium is horrible. The war is still ongoing but I\'m heavily injured. My powers are almost gone so I\'m preparing to leave my legacy here for the next generation. Dozens of gods have already died and I\'m going to follow them soon.

The Imperium is currently in a war against these unknown powerful creatures. I didn\'t know where they came from but their forces rivaled the combined forces of the entire Imperium.

I\'m just one of the dozens of Gods of Space in Imperium. Still, to the people who will find my legacy, prepare yourself for the worst.

The war had just started yet I\'m already in this state. I could only leave everything to the other gods.

These were the words written on the stone monument. Souta rubbed his chin while processing the message that he heard from Saya.

It\'s the same. There\'s not much difference from before. They were still talking about these unknown creatures.

The creatures that the entire world fought in a war.

They were all saying the same thing. To prepare for the next war.

Souta frowned as he looked at the window.

He finally understood why he felt something strange when he entered this place. The space around here was folded by the God of Space to create a massive field.

A place built to prepare for the upcoming war. The civilians will hide here while the warriors will participate in the war.

"God of Space, why didn\'t leave any hint?" Souta sighed. "I wonder if the other gods leave some clue."

\'Or maybe, they only discover the real abilities or characteristics of the enemies at the end of the war. According to the stone monument, the war was still ongoing when the God of Space decided to leave his legacy. The God of Space must have known little from the creatures that they were fighting.\' Saya said.

"That\'s also true. They didn\'t even mention the name of their enemies." Souta agreed with her words. If that\'s the case then the information they have from the enemies was little.

He wanted information about these "unknown creatures" so that he could prepare himself. It wasn\'t included in the game events so he was cautious. The game events were extremely dangerous too but at the very least he had information about them.

\'Souta, this stone monument isn\'t complete... I think the God of Space divided it into different parts.\' Saya suddenly said as she noticed something from the monument.

"If you\'re right then the other stone monuments must be in the remaining three nations," Souta muttered while narrowing his eyes.

In the end, he sighed and shook his head. He shouldn\'t overthink about these matters. He will find the other three monuments in the other nations. He just hoped that the God of Space left some hints for them.

"First, I have to destroy the Red Matter Association..."

Souta turned serious. He knew that he had to finish this before he could properly think about the message left by the God of Space.

"This matter is over... I need to head out now but first..."

He exited the room and glanced at the corpse of Shiela. He looked at the orange-grade equipment around her body. He should get his loots first before he left this place.

After finishing his business, he left the old laboratory and looked above. Just like what he expected, the barrier was gone and it seems that the warriors had started their counterattacks.

He could sense a lot of mana fluctuations in the atmosphere. A few of them were stronger than the rest. It seems that various Grain Leaders had taken the stage to annihilate the Red Matter Association in this country.

"I could sense that all the Grain Leaders that participated in this mission are here but the Chief Captain is still missing... Just where did he go... Or maybe something happen to him."
