After the battle that had ended with the death of 3 of the 4 Gods of the Mechanic Empire in the Spiritual World, the forces of The Adamant Land had collected defeats in the world of Minos.
After Callie joined Aurae and began hunting down the last remaining God of the enemy forces on the planet, many alien outposts on that world were destroyed, marking the loss of territory for that force.
The Divine Continent and the Continent of Beasts had been thoroughly cleansed of alien forces until only in the Ancestral Sea were there still alien territories in this world.
With the decrease in the number of men in the invading forces and their loss of territories, the millions of inhabitants who had surrendered to them out of fear that the local forces would lose the War of the Worlds began to change their minds.
They felt ashamed that they hadn't trusted their world and had surrendered. But more than that, they didn't want to be exploited by beings who could be killed in no time.
As the forces of the Spiritual World regained control of their own planet and advanced against their enemies during this period, the local dissidents gradually began to abandon the alien side or even rebel.
The Mechanic Empire's side in the Spiritual World had weakened significantly in just a few weeks.
If it hadn't been for the technological advantage of the invading forces from that world, they would possibly have been wiped out by now!
But even though they were still on this planet, these alien forces had lost much of their local power. They were now hiding in special locations built in the previous years of the war.
Despite the alien arrogance, the forces of The Adamant Land on this world knew they could get into trouble in this war from the moment they arrived in the Spiritual World. Consequently, they had created locations along the Ancestral Sea where, should anything critical happen to their plans, they could maintain their presence in this world.
In just one of these places were some of the survivors waiting for reinforcements from the empire!
...
In a hard-to-reach part of the Spiritual World, which few had explored before, there was a cave at the bottom of the sea where several defensive and camouflage devices were in place to protect and hide the area.
If one didn't go to the right spot in that underwater area, finding this place would be impossible, even for a God!
In this area there was a complex headquarters built, where at that moment more than 2,000 aliens, robots and biological beings from The Adamant Land, were.
That wasn't all of the alien forces in this world, but at the moment, it was the largest part of those forces on the planet!
In the most reclusive place in this place was the remaining alien God, along with some of the few remaining high-level Demigods in his group.
"How are the enemy efforts recently? Did those two bitches manage to destroy any of our outposts?" Asked the only level 100 being there as he referred to Callie and Aurae.
"No, Your Excellency. They're looking for you. As our groups are acting less and less, we haven't had any new losses recently." Answered one of the aliens there.
"That's good. What about our reinforcements?"
"Our reinforcements will arrive in the Spiritual World in another 15 days, Your Excellency." Said another alien.
"When they arrive, we won't need to keep hiding like we're doing now. But that doesn't mean that the dangers will disappear. The enemies will try to act against us as soon as they have an opening."
"We'll have to be careful. As much as we can strengthen ourselves faster than they can, if we don't do everything correctly we could lose all our war efforts.
There won't be any more reinforcements after this group until the empire produces new Gods. So we must endure the situation here for the next few decades without major losses."
"Yes, the enemies will probably try to deal with us, but if we're cautious, they'll realize they'll have no choice but to live with us.
From then on, whoever advances fastest will reach victory."
Several of those individuals commented among themselves, agreeing on the new path ahead of them to stay alive and continue with their plans to dominate this planet.
The fact was that they were losing the war, and if they weren't perfect from now on, they would all be killed and could even cause a greater fracture to their state's legacy!
The God there agreed and couldn't help but sigh in defeat at the thought of how dire his group's situation was at the moment.
"Now all we can do is wait..." He muttered.
...
While the forces of the Spiritual World and The Adamant Land were experiencing a totally different situation from that of recent years, a new player was about to learn about the situation of these two worlds!
In the same galaxy as the solar system of The Adamant Land, there was a solar system not so far away from the world of the enemies of the Spiritual World.
In this part of the universe, there were several habitable planets, but one world in particular, a little larger than The Adamant Land and the Spiritual World, was the most striking.
But unlike The Adamant Land, this was not such a technologically advanced place. It resembled a gigantic forest where there were practically no large cities.
With a few exceptions, the place was predominantly dominated by natural life forms, without many buildings made by intelligent beings.
Amidst the many different types of forests in this grandiose world lived the dominant race of the place, which was made up of tribes and clans that lived in harmony with nature.
While The Adamant Land was characterized as a mechanical civilization, this place in question was a wild civilization.
Although there was cultivable energy in both worlds, and one could develop the same kinds of technologies in both worlds, this place developed completely differently from The Adamant Land.
While the planet of the Mechanic Empire was dominated by beings who used their intelligence and advanced devices to go further in cultivation, Irpoll's homeland was a place where the natives had druidic powers.
They used nature magic to grow living cities, communicated with animals, and controlled the environment around them with special kinds of powers without destroying or altering the environment.
Humanoid and furry beings, similar to monkeys, with large bodies and tails, dominated this world.
Anyway, one of the strongest beings in this world was receiving new information from his great enemy, the Mechanic Empire!
"Senior Callio, I have some curious information about The Adamant Land."
