This was the Strength that Earth Origin granted Daniel!
The Strength to change the entire world!
No wonder those who died on Earth could not be reborn—because Earth possessed an Origin.
Aerial Realm, the Divine Wind Realm, and those so-called complete small worlds did not.
Aetheria also had an Origin.
Only an Origin could create transcendents and advancent systems. Only an Origin could allow them to be reborn after death. That was the Strength to establish rules.
But Daniel had never learned how to use an Origin.
He had only just touched the threshold. Like a freshman who had just enrolled, he had to learn everything from the very beginning.
Just then—
[Ding! Do you wish to absorb and master the Origin? Upon success, you will rge with this world and beco the ruler of the world, unlocking more world rules.]
[Warning! During the absorption process, you must not be disturbed. The process cannot be interrupted. Otherwise, you will suffer the Origin’s backlash. The consequences will be extrely severe—at best, you will be imprisoned inside the Origin forever, unable to escape; at worst, the Origin will collapse and the planet will be destroyed!]
Hiss—!
Daniel sucked in a cold breath, a chill running down his spine.
He could not be interrupted. He could not be disturbed...
And the consequences were unimaginably serious!
He did not dare delay for even a mont. He imdiately contacted Camille through the puppet avatar stationed in Aetheria, then severed his connection with the Origin and flew out of the vortex.
Players were already swarming over from every direction.
"Guild Leader! You’re here!"
When they saw Daniel, they surrounded him one after another and greeted him.
"You ca at just the right ti."
Daniel gave the order in a deep voice.
"Doom Legion, hear my command—seal off an area of ten thousand miles. No one is allowed to take even a single step inside."
Seeing Daniel’s incomparably serious expression, everyone who heard him felt a chill crawl across their necks.
"As you command, Guild Leader!"
The top experts on the world level rankings accepted the order in unison and quickly scattered, surrounding this sea region as tightly as an iron barrel.
Fortunately, the Guild Leader had not ordered them to clear the area by force. Many players secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
A ga was one thing. Reality was another.
In the ga, good and evil were nothing more than symbols judged by the system. More importantly, people would not truly die. But in reality, no one was a cold-blooded butcher.
rely stopping people was still sothing they could accept.
Daniel did not have especially high expectations of them either.
This group of players had not experienced the dark and bloody era of his previous lives. They still carried the inertia of law in their hearts. Their values were upright, and their moral sense was strong. That was perfectly normal.
But they obeyed orders.
The strongest among them were all under his command. As for the weaker ones, they probably could not make it here anyway.
He took a deep breath and once again dived into the depths of the Origin.
[Ding! Confirm absorption of Earth Origin? During the absorption process, you must not be interrupted or disturbed in any way...]
"Confirm."
This ti, he did not hesitate in the slightest.
[Ding! You have begun absorbing the Origin. Earth’s coordinates are about to be made public to all worlds.]
[World Announcent: Player [Faustus] is absorbing "Earth Origin." Earth’s coordinates are about to be made public! All players, please take note—countless forces and powerful beings from the starry sky will inevitably co after hearing the news!]
[Warning: The countdown to the Defense War of Earth has begun!]
[Warning: The countdown to the Defense War of Earth has begun!]
[Warning: The countdown to the Defense War of Earth has begun!]
[Notification: Origin absorption in progress. Estimated completion ti: seven days.]
[Notification: During the absorption period, "Faustus" cannot move and cannot perform any actions.]
In an instant, all players erupted into an uproar.
"The Guild Leader can’t move? Earth... Earth is in danger!"
"We have to keep a close watch on this place."
"Don’t be scared. We have strength in numbers. The sky won’t fall."
"I hope so."
Soone spoke in a low voice, uncertainty hidden in his tone.
"Earth... is our ho, after all."
...
Divine Wind Realm.
Daniel’s puppet avatar was staying together with Camille.
Suddenly, Conrad hurried over.
"My lord, a world with publicly revealed coordinates has appeared on the star chart."
Conrad’s face was filled with astonishnt.
"This kind of situation is extrely rare in the starry sky. Even newly born worlds would not directly expose their coordinates."
"My lord, this world is within our star system. Should we fight for it?"
Conrad’s eyes shone brightly.
That was a complete small world. Its resources would definitely not be lacking.
With Daniel and Camille’s strength, they were fully capable of taking it into their possession.
"This world is already in my grasp."
Daniel’s puppet avatar smiled faintly.
"You stay behind and guard Divine Wind Realm. Be on guard in case the Godkin send more powerful beings to invade. Camille and I will go."
"As you command, my lord."
...
Boom—!
Daniel’s puppet avatar and Camille descended upon Earth with overwhelming force.
"Master, is this the holand you ntioned?"
Camille sensed this world and frowned slightly.
"Once its starry-sky coordinates are made public, I’m afraid this place will beco a purgatory battlefield."
"As long as no divine-grade beings appear, there’s nothing to fear."
Daniel smiled.
"My main body is absorbing the Origin right now. We only need to hold out for seven days. With us here, no storm is worth fearing."
The two arrived at the land of the Origin.
Daniel gathered all the powerful beings present and gave his instructions.
"Go notify everyone. Have them all leave Earth and head to Aetheria. This place is about to beco a battlefield."
"Guild Leader, let us stay and help you!"
"That’s right, Boss. We want to defend Earth, our holand, together with you!"
"You may decide for yourselves."
Daniel said calmly.
"But let say this first. If you are caught in the aftermath and die, then don’t co back to support again."
"For now, however, you need to think of every possible way to notify everyone to leave. As long as the ssage is delivered, that will be enough."
"As you command. We’ll imdiately find a way to notify everyone."
...
Very soon, the sa ssage flooded the internet, radio stations, and short-video platforms of every country.
Everyone was to return to Aetheria through the Gate of Reincarnation.
Next, Earth would face endless invasion and war.
Ninety-nine percent of players chose to return to Aetheria and avoid the war.
But a very small number of people decided to stay behind and do their part to defend Earth, their holand.
"With fine wine, we welco our dearest friends. With sharp swords, we greet jackals and wolves!"
The players who stayed behind gripped their weapons tightly. Battle intent burned in their eyes, and their morale soared like a rainbow.
"Sovereignty is in our hands! How could we allow non-human races to manipulate us? Fight!"
"Glory to the human race! Defend our holand! Fight to the last drop of blood!"
...
Ansel was a mber of the White Bone Pirate Crew.
As a supre-grade being, he counted as a grassroots backbone within the organization.
Not long ago, the captain had found him and said that he had discovered a plane with publicly revealed coordinates. He needed Ansel to investigate it.
Ansel was the most professional intelligence gatherer among them, so the task naturally fell to him.
Ansel knew very well that a plane with publicly revealed coordinates was both dangerous and tempting.
The true danger did not lie in the prey itself, but in the hunters.
That was a group so vast it was terrifying.
Starfarers yearned for territory. Pirates yearned for resources. Galactic powers yearned to expand their borders.
They were like wild dogs searching for food in the dark night. Upon slling at, their first reaction was not to pounce forward, but to prick up their ears, widen their eyes, and clearly see whether there were lions and tigers hidden in the darkness.
Ansel was the pirate crew’s eyes and ears.
At this mont, he had already arrived near Earth.
And he saw this fat, juicy piece of at!
It was so peaceful and beautiful that he could not help but lose himself in it.
