Demon Queen Rebirth: I Reincarnated as a Living Armor?!

Chapter 624 - The Mysterious Excavation



-----

A large excavation was occurring within the central capital of the Bestellen Empire!

Countless Gods, heroic gods who had affinity with earth magic were all working together!

They were digging into the ground, the very ground, for a strange purpose…

Bestellen had given the order over a week ago, and now, they finally had enough personnel to speed up the project up to this point.

It was all thanks to Bestellen's dungeon and the ability it had to level up people so fast due to its time dilation.

After taking 10 Jobs, the people were raised into Heroic Gods without stopping, based in their strongest magic affinity, they became different elemental Gods.

Bestellen was doing this because he required as much workhand as possible, and although these mass-produced heroic gods were not the strongest, they were good enough, and way better than mortals in every aspect.

He used them all to form massive armies and also ordered all those that were of the earth element to join this project ASAP.

All the Gods were working together into this, putting their life's efforts into this amazing project Bestellen had begun.

It was about digging deep underground to find something, something enormous, powerful, and unimaginable!

It was something that would shock everyone, and it was something that held tremendous power.

It was something that Bestellen wanted to use as his trump card, his last resort, but the strongest he will have as well.

The Gods moved around, flying. Their bodies resembled ethereal figures made of elemental divine energy… their power was outstanding compared to their former mortal selves, but many seemed tired despite this.

Although the entire place had become a pseudo-divine realm for the Heroic Gods to sustain themselves, it was still tiring to constantly use their power into this.

Although Bestellen provided them with divine energy crystals to recharge their divine energy, even then, it was a hard work.

They felt as if they were just sent to work in a mine, even as gods, they were just civilians? What was wrong with this?

But it was Bestellen whom they were talking about.

Somehow, there was something that couldn't let them fight back against such a glorious figure, despite them disliking this entire treatment, they couldn't really do anything over it.

They continued to dig and dig, more tired than ever.

Some gods reached them, Heroic Gods that were talented healers and priests, they began to heal their exhaustion as they continued, mages, miners, even former bandits, all working together here because they held earth attribute affinity when they became heroic gods.

Bestellen didn't discriminated, there were even young children that wanted to join him to help their families out and had trained diligently through the hellish tower where they would never die yet experience death a thousand times, leveled up, and ultimately become heroic gods at a very young age, but instead of protecting the place, they were left… mining.

Was this was they were supposed to do? Was this was they worked hard for? Really? Was this it?!

But… they couldn't fight.

There was something, something! Something within this entire place that couldn't let them fight.

The power of Bestellen was ABSOLUTE.

The power of the God of Law and Light, his power was LAW itself, a powerful element that only he conquered completely.

Using it, he used the power of the world's laws to inflict rules and regulations into a certain group of people.

Those of his Empire were forced to obey instinctively, they only could scream internally as they felt the instinct to aid, despite their tired souls, despite how exhausting it was, they worked for it because… those were the rules.

A terrifying power that a being such as Bestellen possessed!

But… wouldn't the split souls have it as well?

It was a mystery.

The gods continued to dig in, as they began to crack a very hard rock, their elemental divinities were barely responding at this point, they were just using their materialized divine soul arms to dig… How pathetic… for such glorious heroic gods, they were digging with their arms?!

"What is this hard rock!?"

"Just keep pushing!"

"Ungh… this is hopeless…"

"No! Continue!"

"Yes, let's do it!"

The slaved citizens made into heroic gods continued to dig, as they began to slowly shatter the rock.

"Here comes a newbie filled with energy, open for him!"

The other gods finally relaxed, finally a break!

They moved away as a group of newbies heroic gods of earth came here, they all shaped their divinities as drilling spikes, and began to crush through the rock together!

"This is for Bestellen!"

"Push! Push harder!"

"Do it! Damn it! Do it!"

"UWAAAAH!"

CRASH!

The entire ground cracked open as enormous boulders flew into the skies, a giant hole opened…

"W-What?"

"A hole!"

The gods looked over the hole, as they found darkness inside…

"Darkness?"

They began to call for light heroic gods, as they illuminated the entire place with magic.

FLAAASH!

An enormous cave emerged before them, so big it resembled a world by itself…

It was filled with terrifying sleeping monsters of Ranks as high as 40, but the gods were able to evade them as they flew around.

Amidst this subterranean world, there was something glowing far away.

The gods moved towards the light that was attracting them, as the moved closer and closer, reaching it, barely reaching it… and!

"W-What is that?"

"It is… so mythical…"

"Such beautiful power!"

The gods looked at it as a god with the power to achieve images saved this image and sent it to Bestellen through a divine message.

He looked at it.

A gigantic sphere of clear green color, glowing brightly with incredibly and rich quantities of divine power.

It was the crystallization of divine energy itself, the power of the entire world.

"They have finally found it…" muttered Bestellen, a smile emerged on his serious face.

The monstrous entity within his soul, latching and parasitizing it with its orders, emotions, and personality, twisted Bestellen's true nature into such a monster.

"Finally! The World's Origin Core…"
