Odyssey of the Blind God

Chapter 694 The Beginning



By now, Goldy had grown up to be more than three meters long. Not even the longest recorded Goldscale Serpent ought to reach a length of three meters.

Goldly was thus the longest and also the strongest Goldscale Serpent ever recorded. He was also one of the last Goldscale Serpents alive.

No matter how hard explorers searched for a second exemplar of the Goldscale Serpent, explorers couldn't find another one in the Monster Dimension.

This was probably because the Monster Dimension was simply too big. Most of the Monster Dimension hadn't been explored yet because there were too many areas that had yet to be found, in the first place.

Mankind was only that big, and most Creatoran would only enter it to capture a new Familiar. They wouldn't spend a long time in the Monster Dimension. That was only something researchers and explorers would do because they desired to expand their knowledge and find out more about the Monster Dimension.

It was pretty important since everyone was in need of the Monster Dimension to collect more Familiars. Ordinary monsters couldn't be bound to the Soul Link, after all!

Nial Lacardia was listening to the first theoretical lesson that revolved mostly around the appearance of the Monster Dimension's fissures and the first emergence of Summoners. At first, fissures were considered a threat. Many foolish men and women entered the fissures, but not many were able to escape the Monster Dimension.

Most died miserably, while only a few were actually able to escape. Meanwhile, the number of Creatoran who came back with Familiars was even lower.

Once the entire Creatoran race found out about Summoners, and the resources that could be procured in the Monster Dimension, the government, and many other organizations rushed inside the Monster Dimension.

Many ordinary people sensed their opportunity as well. They hoped to change their lives, earn a fortune and turn the tides for themselves and their loved ones.

Through the rush into the Monster Dimension, billions of fissures to the Monster Dimension were opened at the same time. However, not only tamed Familiars and Creatoran emerged from the fissures.

If the fissures were open too long, they would be altered through the laws of the Universe. The altered fissures would become Gateways. Those Gateways were known to allow both Creatoran and Mosnters to step from one side to the other. This included ferocious Monsters.

The ferocious monsters turned against the Creatoran and wreaked havoc. They killed without remorse and ended the lives of hundreds of millions of Creatoran in the following years.

Unable to do anything against the Monsters that were resilient enough to block shot-gun bullets and survive the bombardment of thermobaric weapons. Stronger monsters weren't even faced by the bombardment of nuclear weapons. The cities around the bombarded area were destroyed, and utterly devastated, but the stronger monsters of the Monster Dimension survived everything.

The population was decimated, and the terror of the monsters only ended when the Creatoran who had entered the Monster Dimension returned with powerful aids by their side.

The strongest Familiars increased the strength of their Summoners by a small margin. Through this amplification, they learned how to fend for themselves, while their Familiars killed the ferocious monsters around them.

Not all monsters were killed even until now, but the attack of the retaliation of the Monster Dimension was crystal clear for everyone to see. The Monster Dimension was not only a treasure trove, an opportunity for Creatoran to become stronger. No, it was also a dangerous place where death and chaos lurked.

It was a natural disaster that would destroy everything once its tentacles reached out to a specific place, where it altered the laws of the Universe, planting a permanent seed for the future.

Some Gateways to the Monster Dimension disappeared after the monsters emerging from it had been killed, while others remained permanently.

The Creatoran race was forced to install defensive mechanisms around the Gateways and construct shelters inside the Monster Dimension.

While fissures created by Summoners lead to random places spread all over the Monster Dimension, Gateways were different.

They were Anchors connecting two places with each other. That meant, as long as the Gateway was protected on both sides, the citizens would be safe and sound.

While the Gateways had been dangerous in the beginning, they were considered a golden opportunity once the most ferocious monsters had been killed.

Creating a secure shelter in the Monster Dimension made it easier to expand their territory, and explore the surrounding areas to find out more about other monsters, and capture monsters.

Being considered the most important good for a Summoner, the occupation of a Monster Hunter became more and more important. Many Monsters were captured in order to breed them and turn them into docile monsters even before they were actually bound to the soul of a Summoner.

This worked out in certain regards, however, it didn't change the fact that all Summoners first had to enter the Monster Dimension through a fissure created with the use of their Soul Space.

The first time entering the Monster Dimension was usually considered the most dangerous. Thus, it was common for children to prepare for several years for their first time.

Everything had to be perfect, after all!

Nial was an exception because he had been forced into the fissure. Of course, everything turned out better than expected. But even then, his life had been turned upside down as he was the first full-fledged Summoner at the age of four.

'So that is how the Monster Dimension and the Lacardia Empyrean Void are connected?'

Many other races were also interested in the Monster Dimension. Only Creatoran were able to create the fissures, but other races were also able to use the Gateways.

Everyone would want to get their hands on a vast expanse that had yet to be touched by other races. The resources they could procure from ordinary resources, and the monsters they could kill were already more than enough to consider waging war against the Lacardia Empyrean Void.

In fact, there were many races willing to kidnap Creatoran in order to create their own Gateways.

Creatoran was kidnapped, and forced to create fissures in the Monster Dimension and to leave them like this until they would slowly turn into Gateways.

That was why it was so important to fight at the frontlines where the Emperor protected his people from being abducted.

Otherwise, they would not only lose their people but also their monopoly of the Monster Dimension!
