Endless Extraction in a Game-Like World Chapter 155: The Origin Kingdom! Jumping into the Spatial Fi

Ignoring the wall update, Caelus focused completely on the Ender passive.

It was surprising. It rarely triggered, only activating in extrely rare instances like when he first entered the Middle Expanse.

But now he knew exactly how it was triggered. Intense emotions.

He had felt that similarly sa intense emotion when the origin network almost ejected him from the Middle Expanse.

Now here, he felt hatred toward Seth. The man had killed innocent players simply because they belonged to the Solaris Kingdom.

It made him angrier than he initially expected. But this taught him a valuable lesson.

People killed like it was completely normal here. Since that was the case, there was no need for him to hesitate anymore either.

Now that he knew he could trigger the Ender passive to permanently eliminate soone, he would use it whenever he absolutely needed to.

He turned to the others. "Let’s go deal with the other domains as well."

With this domain conquered, it was ti for the next one. Within another hour, they swept through and conquered all the remaining domains under their nas.

The people of these newly acquired domains and the people of Caelus’s original domain alike were completely awed by his sheer power.

He was quite literally invincible.

There was absolutely no one who could stop him. They genuinely wondered where he got this tyrannical power from.

At the sa ti, Caelus received a new system update. This update finally allowed non-players to access their respective domain chats.

It instantly beca so crowded that people began making their own localized group chats just to speak amongst themselves.

Just then, a worldwide notification rang out.

[Ding! Region Domain 513 has successfully unified all other domains to form a kingdom.]

[Starting now, Region Domain 513 will be a kingdom.]

[The lord of the kingdom can na the kingdom.]

[Starting tomorrow, you will enter the main domain with other participants of your expanse.]

[Ding! You conquered a kingdom in less than a day.]

[You have obtained 200 Reputation points.]

[Reputation Points: 705 -> 905]

Sylvia also received the rewards thanks to her Rookie God title. She now sat at 1,110 reputation points.

At the sa ti, the resource points and population updated for the domain itself.

[Resource Points: 5,024 -> 15,032]

[Population: 502,443 -> 1,102,394]

The increase wasn’t incredibly massive because they didn’t have that many non-player beings across the map. But it was fine.

One million was the staple population required before transitioning into a kingdom.

It was the main stepping stone, and their territory had managed to reach it right in ti.

"Starting tomorrow, we will enter the main origin domain, huh?"

Things wouldn’t get easy from here on out. The main domain contained the Solaris, Windborn, Windblown, and Ritewing kingdoms. All of them were his direct enemies.

Usually, when a new server opened and entered the kingdom transition period, it automatically fell under the jurisdiction of the kingdom the players originally ca from.

The royal laws of the Solaris and other kingdoms demanded it. If the person who ford the new kingdom didn’t join their existing kingdom as a vassal state, they would be hunted and punished by law.

But of course, Caelus wasn’t going to do that. He would forge his own independent kingdom.

Because of that, things would only get harder.

He had to be prepared. When the others inevitably ca to subjugate his territory, he wanted the best possible defenses waiting for them.

Luckily, he had obtained the Walls update from Seth.

Normal walls could always be upgraded and leveled up. But to increase their HP pool or reach a higher rank, a completely new blueprint had to be bought every single ti.

This domain update he got was completely different. It allowed him to place down the exact sa walls across all towns, ensuring they all shared the exact sa defensive power and HP pool.

Not just that, the walls now followed a leveling system similar to his troops and barracks.

Each major rank increased the base HP slightly. When the wall’s HP was completely full, it ford a massive shield do over the towns, protecting them from aerial attacks.

But once the wall’s HP fell below fifty percent, the do would crumble.

Overall, it was an incredibly powerful update.

But before he focused on leveling up his walls, he had to na the kingdom and reform the region domain’s overall layout.

For the na, he easily chose the Origin Kingdom. He was the Ender of Origin, after all. He had to keep up with the title.

Sylvia agreed with the choice.

Now ca the kingdom reformation. It essentially required gathering all the scattered towns in the area into one singular location. By covering that core area with walls, it would officially beco a kingdom.

There were several layouts available in the system, ranging from circle and square to triangle and hexagon.

Caelus went with the hexagon layout. It was the most optimal shape, giving him six distinct sides to place down defensive watchtowers.

Soon, he began collecting all the scattered towns and structures across the map. He pulled everything into the massive hexagonal walls and divided the interior space into several sectors: A, B, C, and D.

Huge chunks of shops and towns were perfectly established in each one. He ford the mana-infused walls he had previously built to partition the kingdom itself, creating safe passages and pathways.

He also placed down a Tavern of Endless Food and Drinks in every single kingdom sector.

He then reallocated all the existing barracks and placed down several new ones for extra troops and defenses.

In the end, his balance settled back at 12,304 resource points.

Around the very center of the kingdom, he adjusted the terrain. He raised a small hill with a massive plot of land surrounding it.

That was where his and Sylvia’s cabin would eventually go.

He rembered there was a future update where they could buy advanced cabins like sprawling mansions. Reserving a massive plot of land now was just future-proofing his ho.

With that, the kingdom building was complete.

This would be his absolute territory. The safe haven for all the people who chose to follow him.

The entire domain began to stir. All the players were suddenly shot high into the sky, safely suspended by the domain’s protective barrier.

Below them, the world physically shifted.

Towns, buildings, and cabins ripped from the ground and flew toward the center of the domain. Massive hexagonal walls ford entirely on their own, locking everything into the exact alignnts Caelus had planned out.

Soon, the kingdom was fully ford and ready to function. Everyone in the air was gently sent back down to their respective cabins.

The massive Origin Kingdom now spanned across the vast plains, completely brimming with life.

Caelus and Sylvia looked down at the sight with small smiles.

"This is our place," Caelus said, glancing at Sylvia. "We must protect it at all costs."

Sylvia nodded firmly.

Down below, players and NPCs were already excitedly exploring the newly designed sectors. Hundreds of people wandered the streets and taverns in speechless awe at the absolute wonder of their new ho.

"But we need to be prepared for tomorrow," Caelus said.

Sylvia glanced at him.

"Let’s go back to the Land of Snow. We still have a few hours left."

Sylvia agreed completely. Tomorrow was going to be a long day. They had to use every minute they had left to prepare themselves.

After giving the players the task of levelling up the walls, defenses, and troops, they left.

----

Ren and Lara stood in the center of the massive crowds. Both had completely numb and disbelieving looks on their faces.

"What the hell..." Lara whispered, unable to properly process the sight.

So much had happened in just a few short hours that she literally didn’t know what to say.

"W-We must absolutely report this to the church," Ren said, a slight tremble in his voice.

Player 555 was simply way too monstrously powerful.

----

anwhile, Caelus and Sylvia now stood at the opening of a glowing spatial fissure.

They had been traveling back to the Land of Snow when they unexpectedly encountered the rift off to the side of their path.

"Do we enter?" Caelus asked, turning to Sylvia.

"Didn’t Chairman Welt say that these fissures led to special gas that granted imnse rewards?" Sylvia asked curiously. "Like how he got his mods?"

"Yeah," Caelus said thoughtfully. "Could this be from another Middle Expanse, or maybe a world even higher than that?"

"Only one way to find out."

They both nodded. Without a single second of hesitation, they jumped straight in.

The instant they passed through the rift, their vision completely distorted. Glowing words subtly faded into view right in front of them.

[You have entered a special area: God Domain’s fragnt.]
