"Transfer the spatial sphere to the trial realm. Race 0034113 will be rewarded an increase in the tier of their physique offered after calculation of respective trial points in the trial."
A chilly mechanical voice replied from the void directly into Juviel's consciousness.
A/N-Spatial Sphere- A device capable of folding space and able to store anything.
Juveil showed an excited expression and clicked a bulge on the ball in her palms. It vanished without a trace.
She gave a rosy smile while asking, "My share?"
A few moments later.
"You've shown undeniable loyalty towards the Eight Great Gods of Nine and will be rewarded.
1.5% of the Race 0034113's population shall belong to you and you will also be provided with a soul stone of 30% effectiveness for finding a race with 5 Potential Angels." The mechanical voice said again.
A hole appeared in space around her and the spatial sphere containing 1.5 % of the human population along with a dark red stone flashed out of it.
'Finally, I have it and it's six times more effective than the previous one.'
She turned around with a satisfied expression and flashed towards some other part of the Milky way galaxy.
-Inside the spatial sphere-
It was pitch black environment and people were placed in compartments separately forming a structure similar to beehive for humans.No one could hear, see or speak anything. Time seemed to have stopped for them in the still darkness.
Suddenly a blue laser flashed to scan the humans and then vanished along with a very small part of the compartments.
-Den of Trials : Pure Zone-
A white environment came into view which seemed to be infinitely large. No flaws could be pointed on the smooth white land everything was pure giving out a feeling of holiness.
Suddenly, a small silver ball could be spotted in the middle of it all as if it appeared out of nothing but space itself. A few moments after it appeared, it burst out releasing the seemingly countless human figures.
"All your senses have been sealed temporarily. You can walk in any direction you feel like and hope to not get obstructed. Continue walking for as long as you can."
A mechanical voice rang into the consciousness of the people.
As if possessed by spirits most people started to walk and within a matter of seconds, almost everyone started moving in random directions.
It provided a chaotic yet breathtaking view as everyone moved randomly and almost no one touched each other even though they were walking side by side or in opposing directions. They couldn't even see a thing but changed directions when they were about to collide.
Well not everybody. Some people collided as well.
Just as they touched each other a blue flash would occur removing them from the pure white zone.
It proceeded as such for half an hour like a maze of randomly moving ants. Nothing special seemed to be happening.
Not until you looked close enough.
Five people from various were running in almost a straight line towards a very slow moving figure which was tens of kilometers away from them. The people around them were thrown away without even touching them. They had started running just when they were given the freedom to move but were nowhere near to their destination.
'It feels like there's something present in that direction that I strongly need to have.'
'Being attracted to something I can't even see.'
'What is that thing pulling me?'
"I am unable to sever this emotion of longing for this thing. I should have practiced 'heartless sword severing the will'
'I almost feel like God is calling me but seems too dangerous’'
Each one had a different thought but the same destination. They ran for hours and were still nowhere near to their destiny. It almost felt like they were running circles but they still didn't give up. Running while throwing off people without even touching them.
Finally, the burly Japanese looking human felt like he could reach his desire in a matter of a few more minutes.
Well, his feeling was right but it wasn't his fate to meet his destiny yet as he lost the power to move his body anymore. So did the other humans.
Everyone stilled again and the mechanical voice rang out into their consciousness.
"Eligibility test has been completed. Those who were unable to pass the test will be returned to your race's home planet."
"Those who have passed the test will gain control of their senses and participate in the trial set by the Great Gods. Points will be rewarded on the basis of contributions and will be taken in consideration when rewards are given."
Everyone was teleported to different space.
-A fiery red world-
A churning smell invaded the noses of the humans as they appeared here. They could see millions of people around them in a world where everything was red. Active volcanoes could be seen as many as mountain peaks while magma flowed out of them like rivers.
It was just an infinitely large hot and desolate land, where seemingly nothing could survive for long.
Suddenly, the mechanical voice rang out in the minds of all humans.
"You have entered the Den of Trials."
