The announcement stated that the birthplace range had expanded from the Milky Way Galaxy to three major galaxies.

In an instant, the area of real-world interactive power points was expanded once again.

The area spans three entire star systems, and especially when the battlefield is included, the players' activity range truly enters the space age.

However, Lister now had some vague suspicions.

After coming into contact with cosmic forces, including the Eternal Sea of Trees and learning about other dimensions, he made a guess about the dimension of the player, which was his previous life.

Could the game world of "God's Rise" also be a kind of alternate dimension?

Could it be that this plane is gradually merging with the current plane?

Now that the game has entered Act 8, even though the actual interactive power points have been magnified many times over, they are still not clearly visible.

As for the players adapting, it was much faster than Lister had imagined.

Soon, players could be seen in the core areas of the three major star systems.

Since intergalactic teleportation arrays have not been established, the only way to travel between galaxies is by spaceship, which is time-consuming and laborious.

They had already begun exploring and exchanging information within the three major star systems.

"The Divine Rise Galaxy was actually occupied and renamed by Count Merrick!"

"The official statement also said there were no NPCs driven by internal storylines, but isn't it obvious that they are!"

"So this version is the version from the Divine Rise Galaxy?"

"What are you thinking! The Babylon Galaxy was also conquered by Count Merrick."

"If we're talking about versions, then our mage will definitely live on forever!"

"Fragile mages are nothing! Look at the rankings, martial arts classes are number one."

"Count Merrick is a martial arts- Class Holder, so don't try to fool the newbies."

With each update, new players flock to the game.

However, since the last version, the number of players has almost reached its limit.

Nowadays, newbies are a minority; most are veteran players.

Lister secretly glanced at the public chat before turning his attention to his experience bar.

[Experience Points: 3.3 billion...]

How long has this version been online?

This experience is almost equivalent to his accumulated knowledge over a century.

They still have to rely on exploiting players!

Especially now that the Fourth Advancement, the experience requirement has increased tenfold.

Even with the help of other players, it will still take a considerable amount of time to reach the maximum level.

He allocated all his experience points to his passive ability, and the familiar cool sensation permeated his entire body, once again intoxicating him with the feeling of increased power.

Unfortunately, the experience points were too few this time, and the wonderful feeling of improvement quickly faded.

In the seventh deep spaceport of the Merrick Star Region, crimson energy torrents surged between the circular docks.

When the propulsion systems of more than 10,000 warships were lit up simultaneously, even the stars paled in comparison.

Lister appeared at the forefront of the warship, his knuckles unconsciously tapping the hilt of the Shadowless Blade at his waist, Killing Intent Wave across the entire fleet.

Instantly, the atmosphere became solemn.

Even the thousands of warships controlled by the players were waiting quietly at this moment.

The Expeditionary Army has now been cancelled, and players have been uniformly incorporated into the Seventh Central Army Group, the Undying Legion.

Moreover, those who can truly operate warships independently, starting as sergeants, can eventually become true independent captains.

Inside the jump point, player "War God of Jiangling Prefecture" had his face pressed against the porthole of the command room.

He observed Merrick with considerable excitement in his eyes.

Having played since the beta version, he was one of the first players to encounter Count Merrick, and he has a special affection for Lister Merrick.

Fortunately, Lister did not disappoint him; he was a central figure in almost every version of the story.

Even now, his status as a representative figure of the main faction in the game's background remains unchanged, even after entering the vast universe.

"Move out! March!"

The deep, cold voice, tinged with Killing Intent Wave, instantly resonated throughout the entire fleet.

That calm, indifferent, and unparalleled feeling immediately stirred the hearts of everyone present.

The next instant, rows of warships set sail.

The fleet consists of over 10,000 warships, almost all of which are small ships, with a small number of medium-sized ships.

After all, the Milky Way Galaxy had just finished a major war, and they really couldn't muster many large ships.

We can't possibly seize all the warships of the old, Civilization Army below.

Moreover, in the battles between forces in the vast universe, warships play a more auxiliary role.

Meanwhile, the mechanical forces of the Babylon Galaxy, the allied forces of the Divine Rise Galaxy, and small groups of puppet troops also marched forward alongside the Undying Army composed of players.

The mission this time is very simple: just combat.

The target of the attack was the Void Corridor, a part of the forces in the N7 Galaxy.

This is the area where the Void Corridor's control is weakest.

The complex interplay of various factions within the galaxy serves as a warning system for the Void Corridor.

The attack on the N7 Galaxy was intended to send a signal through Lister.

This means that a brand new force has emerged in the universe, and the force he belongs to is an enemy of the Void Corridor.

Only in this way can we truly connect with the forces of the Church of the End and have a real chance to engage in dialogue.

Otherwise, without some real action, a super-powerful entity like them won't even discuss cooperation with you.

In another part of the universe, deep within a giant, winding galaxy that resembles a gateway.

A cluster of buildings constructed from enormous rhomboid crystals stands perpetually in the void, resembling a floating city.

This is the core star system of the Void Corridor and the main base of the Void Clan.

At this moment, in the center of the city cluster filled with void, a burst of high energy suddenly erupted from a special diamond-shaped building.

The next instant, dozens of projections lit up simultaneously in the building's central hall.

The entire hall appeared somewhat desolate; at first glance, it seemed as if spatial technology had been used, making one feel as if they were in a void.

However, not long afterward, the interior space of the hall began to shrink.

The influence of the void gradually faded, and a strange energy fluctuation flickered.

This area has taken on a unique diamond shape and has been completely blocked from signal transmission.

"What's going on this time? These meetings have been happening way too frequently lately!"

A slightly impatient voice came from one of the projections.

The sound seemed to be a characteristic of the Void Race, making it particularly ethereal.

After saying that, he glanced around until he looked at one of the younger-looking men.

"Damon... if you can't handle the job of serving as the speaker."

"Other Hegemon can do it for you; you can either go into slumber or travel to another dimension."

"Elder Rhein, and everyone else..."

"This information concerns the Lord of World Annihilation; it is not my intention to disturb your eternal slumber."

The Void Spirit Clan are different from ordinary civilized races, with a rather unique physical structure.

It can sense the energy of the void and indirectly mobilize the energy of different planes.

This allows races to survive or roam in other dimensions in a special state through their own talents.

Absorb energy from other dimensions to increase its own strength.

Therefore, long sleep and travel are also common growth methods for the Void Clan.

The current political system of the Void Spirit Clan is based on elders.

This means that a dozen or so elders jointly discuss and decide on all important personnel and development decisions.

However, even the elders need time to grow and improve before they can serve as the speaker.

After discussing plans spanning thousands or even tens of thousands of years, they can simply take turns being on duty.

Unless it is a major matter, we should discuss it together.

Over the past century, the fact that their hibernation has been interrupted several times has indeed caused them distress.

"News about the Lord of World Annihilation?"

"Is the investigation into Morris's death complete?"

One of the elders immediately recalled that meeting from a few years ago.

This is the first time in the millennia that Overlord Tier clan member has died in their faction.

The original plan was to have an elder personally go and check on the situation in the Milky Way Galaxy.

However, judging from the residual energy information of Morris, the opponent's forces were incredibly powerful.

Although Morris failed to become the Hegemon, he was still a rare genius in the tribe, and his strength was no less than that of any of their elders.

Only then did he abandon his initial idea of conducting an investigation.

The investigation was conducted using their clan's most basic investigative methods.

"Yes."

Damon responded quickly.

"Does the opponent truly possess the power of Lord of World Annihilation?"

"The other party is the new ruler of the Milky Way Galaxy, Lister Merrick."

"At the 21st rank, possessing the strength of Lord of World Annihilation, he slaughtered all ten Hegemon of the Beta and Witchcraft Civilizations of the Milky Way Galaxy, including Morris."

"It seems he has some kind of business connection with the Beta civilization's Sero, which is why he participated in the battle."

After he finished speaking, no elders in the room questioned him anymore.

Any news concerning the Lord of World Annihilation deserves their utmost attention.

"For Morris to even participate in the struggle against the Lord of World Annihilation, this Milky Way Galaxy must hold a great secret."

An elder immediately turned his attention to another core aspect of the incident.

"The Milky Way Galaxy, a mere ordinary star system, actually has more than ten Hegemon!"

"Morris has never mentioned this to us before; there must be something unusual in this galaxy."

Everyone's not stupid; some things just haven't been noticed.

If you actually encounter it, you'll quickly discover some blind spots in the matter.

"Elders, I have already discovered what you are saying and have investigated it."

"No unique features have been found in the civilization of Lister Merrick."

"However, he acts without any scruples and has already assembled an army, heading towards our territory."

"They're probably going to wage war against our Void Corridor."

The movements of the Milky Way Galaxy were almost entirely monitored by the Void Corridor.

The Void Clan is inherently engaged in the business of information trafficking, and their innate talent for controlling and acquiring information about ordinary life forms is top-notch.

Lister's actions naturally did not escape their notice.

This is also what frustrates him the most right now; this level of surveillance of the Soul Barrier will be exposed sooner or later.

War is unavoidable, so why not initiate it and actively integrate into the larger universe?

"Him?"

One of the elders present couldn't help but express his disdain.

While their Void Corridor isn't among the top seven super powers, it's certainly not at the bottom either.

The tribe has three Lord of World Annihilation, yet they are no less formidable than the mere Lister.

They don't care about the so-called war at all.

Or rather, the two sides had been at odds for some time before Morris's death.

The decision of whether or not to start a war, and when to start it, originally rested with them; now, Lister is simply taking the initiative to initiate it first.

"After all, he is a Lord of World Annihilation. Should we wake one of the clan members?"

Another elder, who looked even older, also spoke up at this moment.

However, he did not make sarcastic remarks, but rather considered the practicalities of the situation.

"Our forces have fought against other major powers, and we've never seen anyone wake up those three lords."

"It's just a war in the Milky Way Galaxy. Even if Lister is qualified to establish a new major power, he's only just begun. Could he possibly be more troublesome than the other major powers that are currently in power?"

Rhein strongly disagreed with the idea of the three adults who were fortunate enough to be together.

However, several elders were still rather conservative and wanted to wake one of them up.

"Damon, what do you think?"

Ultimately, everyone's attention turned to Damon, the speaker on duty.

He was the one receiving and processing the latest news, and he also arranged various situations within the clan. Naturally, he had more say in Lister's response to the war.

Let me make one thing clear first.

Damon looked at Rhein, and then glanced at the others.

"In the Milky Way Galaxy, or rather, within Lister's sphere of influence, he is not the only Lord of World Annihilation."

"How is this possible!?"

"Has the universe produced two Lord of World Annihilation in such a short time?"

"None of them are among our seven super powers?"

The elders all expressed their shock and unease at the news, one after another.

Lister's strength was something everyone anticipated after Morris's death.

It's possible that a new Lord of World Annihilation has been born in the universe.

But now another one is coming! This...

"The other one is named Kavin, with a strength level of 19, and also possesses the combat power of Lord of World Annihilation."

"It belongs to the Babylon Galaxy and has a close relationship with Lister."

"Although we hate to admit it, we have indeed neglected to investigate those remote and isolated forces."

They are both located in that remote region of the galaxy.

Two Lord of World Annihilation have appeared right under their noses in the Void Corridor... This is... a huge problem!

Especially now that they're facing off, if we really wait for these two to grow up...

"This time, the opposing coalition forces were jointly dispatched by three star systems."

"In terms of numbers, it wasn't a major battle."

"However, Lister came in person."

"I suggest we at least wake up an adult."

The elders pondered this in their minds, considering that from the perspective of eliminating danger...

Ideally, all three adults should be awakened so that they can directly annihilate these two new Lord of World Annihilation the Milky Way Galaxy.

Unfortunately... reality often doesn't go as they wish.

There are many hostile forces in the Void Corridor, especially given their intelligence capabilities and complex relationships with the seven major powers.

Even though he had a fairly good relationship with two of the major powers, they both loved and hated him.

Indeed, it was their entire clan; all three adults joined forces to fight against Lister.

It's likely that the leaders of the other six super powers wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by.

In this universe, World-Ending Level combat power is practically a "nuclear bomb" in a lower-level world.

The primary purpose is deterrence; if a fight breaks out between them, one-on-one combat is relatively easy.

If it's a many-on-many situation, it's enough to attract the involvement of various factions.

The already complex balance of power will be disrupted.

The safest course of action now would be to wake someone up and make a temporary settlement with Lister.

Even knowing that these two Lord of World Annihilation, Lister, would be the biggest variables in the future of the major powers in the universe, they could not make a decision now and had to consider everything carefully.
