At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

Erica stepped out of the gravity body, her forehead also bearing fiery red markings. When she saw the ice-blue markings on Feixue's chest, she chuckled, "Hehe, everyone has gained the approval of the gods. I thought Feixue wouldn't get the immortal markings."

"Erica, do you have a problem with me?" Feixue jumped down from the gravity body and rubbed her wrist.

Erica quickly shook her head: "No, no, how could that be? Feixue, you've always been so cold, even the immortal runes you obtained are ice elemental." She was afraid of getting punched if she spoke too slowly; Feixue really could hit people.

Feixue looked at Erica's forehead: "Fire element, huh? Impatient and restless, that certainly suits your personality."

Lin Yong walked over and greeted them: "Did you also obtain Immortal Marks in battle? I didn't expect you to be so fast." These four comrades from another world were the first people he had ever received. They had become good friends since then, as they were all from the same main base, although they hadn't seen each other much due to missions.

Erica quickly greeted him, "Brother Leng Bing, you've also gained the gods' approval! Congratulations!"

"Congratulations, Comrade Lin." Jeff also came over. His immortal markings were not visible on his arm, but the elemental power flowing around him made it clear that he had also gained the approval of the gods.

"Sigh, after a battle, there are hardly any gravity beings that can still move. It's really heartbreaking."

Mo Cheng walked over and said, "Hey, what's the big deal? The military factory can produce seven or eight thousand units a day. I heard that if the military factory works at full capacity, it can produce more than twenty thousand units a day."

Tao Jing threw the broken mechanical gauntlet on the ground: "It's normal to damage equipment when fighting those monsters."

"Everyone worked hard to protect people, which is remarkable. As long as we can protect people, it's worth it even if all our equipment is damaged. The country will never abandon anyone."

"Yeah, I never expected you, Mo Cheng, to get a Celestial Mark." A combatant who had obtained a Lightning Elemental Mark walked over and punched Mo Cheng on the shoulder.

"Ouch, what's wrong? I'm not allowed to? Comrade, we can't discriminate. I'm a Chinese citizen now too." Mo Cheng rubbed his shoulder in pain.

“That’s right, that’s right, we’re Chinese citizens now, I even have an ID card.” Erica glared at her angrily.

"Hmm." Feixue nodded without saying a word.

Jeff sighed heavily, his voice tinged with grievance: "Oh, so you don't consider us one of your own, comrade."

"Hey hey hey... I didn't say that, I'm innocent, I'm really innocent."

"Hahaha...you little rascal, shouldn't you share some of the cigarettes you hid?"

"Okay, you've been thinking about it, haven't you?"

"Come, come, Comrade Mo Cheng, it's my fault, it's my fault."

"No problem, no problem." Mo Cheng comfortably exhaled a smoke ring, causing Erica and Feixue to frown and take two steps back.

Yu Chengyue walked over with his hands behind his back: "You all have entered the path, comrades. Not bad, not bad. It seems that I can still take up my position as instructor."

"Hello, Instructor Yu."

"Hello, Instructor Yu."

Yu Chengyue swept his sharp eyes around and said, "Comrades who have entered the Dao, after the mission is over, do you want to spar with this old man?"

"Uh, no, no." One of the combatants quickly shook his head. Spar with Instructor Yu? Even without a sword, Instructor Yu's fists and feet were enough to hold his own against Lieutenant Colonel Tao. If they sparred with him, they would just be used as punching bags.

"Everyone, take a good rest here for now. There's still a lot to do once you've rested." Tao Jing turned and walked into the armed helicopter.

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel!"

After receiving the immortal runes, the warriors saluted and dragged their weary bodies toward the temporary tents set up by the logistics personnel.

This time, 37 combatants obtained the Celestial Mark, which seems like a lot, but compared to the tens of thousands of combatants here, this proportion is too small.

Only a fraction of those who awaken their abilities obtain Celestial Marks.

After the city, now reduced to ruins, quieted down, logistics personnel were cleaning up the battlefield and transporting away the remains and carcasses of the Beast Hounds.

The remains of any extraordinary creature are valuable materials that the Xia Kingdom cannot afford to waste.

However, no one has yet explored the central battlefield, which covers a full ten kilometers in the city center; they are only using drones to explore it.

The area spans ten kilometers and is filled with giant trees that resemble lotus flowers folding together. These trees seem to exist as a single entity, forming a vast space within them. The gaps at the base of the trees are large enough for small cars to enter.

……

Garden of Eden.

By this time, everyone had returned home. Although the battle had caused enormous losses for humanity, it had not taken much effort for them.

The only ones who expended the most effort were Meadow and Artoria, but after they returned, everyone went back to doing what they were doing before.

Bai Yuekui returned directly to her research base through the Anywhere Door, leaving the Anywhere Door to Luo Sheng, who thought she might be able to make some progress in her research.

With the 'spatial power', the Anywhere Door is basically dispensable to him.

Of course, that doesn't mean the Anywhere Door is completely useless. He's already planning to have Bai Yuekui build a spacecraft to fly to the moon, give the Anywhere Door key to the robot, and record the moon's coordinates.

At that time, we can directly travel to the moon through any door in one step.

After all, the scope of his powers is limited to the area he influences. The world outside Earth is not his domain, but a purely physical world. The effects of his mystical powers are reduced by at least 90%. In this state, flying to the moon on his own is no faster than using a spacecraft; it would take at least half a month.

He did this because he was thinking too much.

With Bai Yuekui taking Maido and Jeanne to the Sahara research base to help, only Buyer, Fukaros, and Artoria remained in Eden.

Buyer and Fucarus were drinking coffee under the World Tree, occasionally glancing at Los Santos.

"This is the first time I've seen Los Saint angry," Buyer said softly.

"The first time?" Fukaros covered her lips in surprise. "Lo, is this really the first time Los Saint has ever been angry?" But, is this even considered anger? Or is it just concern? Is Buyer's concept of anger somewhat different from her understanding of anger?

“I’ve never seen him angry, although sometimes he can be quite frustrating.” Buyer touched his pointed ear with his fingertips.

Fukaros blinked and looked again at Tenri-sama, who was scolding Artoria with her head down not far away.

"Master... Master... are you done reprimanding me?" Artoria looked up at Los Saint, whose golden eyes were fixed on her, but lowered her head again under his stern gaze, her hands involuntarily rubbing together.

Los Saint stared at Artoria, who had her head bowed: "No! Artoria, I know you have an incredible spirit of self-sacrifice, but have you never thought about yourself?"

In that battle, Artoria transferred all the damage suffered by everyone else onto herself, which damaged her own spirit, leaving her in a weakened state.

Artoria is very strong now, but she can't withstand the transfer of damage suffered by hundreds of thousands of people. It's only thanks to his 'omnipotent divine power' that she can heal the injuries to Artoria's spirit. Otherwise, she would have remained weak indefinitely, and even Jeanne's power couldn't repair her.

For a Heroic Spirit, a physical injury is equivalent to a damage to their Spirit Origin.

When a spirit's injuries reach a certain level, its spiritual foundation will shatter.

The Spirit Origin is the core that holds everything about Artoria in the present day.

There is no Hall of Heroes in this world; if Artoria's spirit origin is shattered, she will truly die.

Originally, Artoria was just a Servant, but after obtaining the name of a god, she was no longer a simple Servant. Instead, she became a completely new life entity in this world, and it can be said that she had no connection with the Type-Moon world, nor with the Heroic Spirits in Valhalla.

“But… Master, you are here…” Artoria said softly, “Besides, I feel like I can handle it.”

"Does being here give you the right to do whatever you want? You stubborn girl." Luo Sheng said unhappily, as he roughly ruffled Artoria's golden hair, and finally pinched the ahoge (cowlick) on the top of her head with his index finger and thumb and rubbed it hard until it drooped down on her hair.

He cherishes the women he knows well, those women who have become his 'family,' and he doesn't allow them to disappear in front of him.

“Girl…” Artoria paused, somewhat dazed.

She once thought that if she hadn't conformed to everyone's expectations and hadn't been taken by Merlin to pull out the 'Sword of the Chosen King', she might have been able to become an ordinary girl, get married, have children, and worry about housework.

My Master, he didn't see me as a knight or a hero, but as a girl... My Master treated her like a girl, so he was angry at her for enduring everything for the people back then.

She then understood why her Master was angry.

"Yes, Master, I will make sure I don't get hurt in the future." Artoria raised her head, her firm lake-blue eyes carrying a touch of gentleness unique to a young girl.

"Huh, you've actually come to your senses?" Luo Sheng was surprised, but when she saw the different emotion in Artoria's eyes as she nodded, she finally realized that she was still a girl who had never even had a proper relationship.

"Then it's settled." Luo Sheng patted her head.

"Yes, I won't make you angry again." Artoria nodded.

"I'm not angry."

"No?"

“No.” Los Saint shook his head and looked at Buyer and Fucaros, who kept glancing over. The two of them quickly turned their heads away, pretending not to see.

"These two... even goddesses can't escape their gossipy nature."

As she spoke, she walked towards the two of them. Fukalos panicked slightly, while Buyer maintained her gentle smile as always.

Artoria blinked, seemingly doing something, before finally transforming into a spirit.

Los Saint said, "I plan to expand the size of the 'Garden of Eden'. Buyer and Fucaros, you two can also help extend the fruit trees and water sources, and create some streams, waterfalls, and small lakes."

The entire Garden of Eden is only one kilometer in size now. The three gods and the future gods are crammed into such a small place. It's too cramped. If the 20 billion believers around the world knew this, they would think that God couldn't afford to live there.

“Okay.” Buyer and Fucaros nodded. Buyer and Los Saint had lived under the same roof for so long, until Los Saint gained the power and wanted to truly hide this place. He didn’t want anyone other than those he approved of to disturb them.

A silver spatial rift appeared in front of Los Saint. Stepping into the rift, he appeared above the Garden of Eden. Although the sunlight overhead was the same as on Earth, when he reached out to touch it, ripples of space appeared at the edges.

Overlooking the entire Garden of Eden, the World Tree stands in the center, surrounded by a vast, treeless area, with a small villa standing alone beside it.

Feeling the flow of the entire space, Eden now resembles a small bubble attached to Earth's space, and he wants to expand this bubble.

Los Saint raised his finger, activating his spatial powers. Silver ripples spread from his fingertip, covering the entire Garden of Eden.

The spatial barrier enveloping this land began to expand, and the expanded area became an empty cliff, with the entire land of Eden suspended in mid-air, forming a floating island.

This floating island state reminded him of the Immortal Cave in the Genshin Impact world, except that his was much more advanced than the Immortal Cave, being a space bubble attached to the vast space of Earth.

At the edge of the floating island, rock elements converge and quickly transform into rocks and soil as the space bubble expands.

With the help of Buyer and Fucaros, new buds of fruit trees sprouted from the new land. The buds grew rapidly and soon became large trees. Water elements gathered in the forest, and streams quickly appeared, and small lakes converged in the forest.

Rumble rumble rumble—

The entire space was shaking until it stopped when the Eden space expanded to about ten kilometers. This was the limit of the small space that Earth could support. If the space were any larger, it would be repelled by Earth's larger space.

This is not to say that the Earth's ability to withstand pressure is insufficient, but rather that the repulsive force of the external space is very strong. His current spatial powers are only at the lowest level, and he is not yet able to reconcile the relationship between the small space and the large space.

Once one's spatial power reaches the strength of ten power shares and becomes a spatial master, then one can create a spatial plane the size of the United States.

Ten shares of power are enough to permanently influence a planet, hence the term 'great power'.

"This is more like the Garden of Eden." Los Saint landed next to the World Tree, quite satisfied.

After finishing, I lay down on my back, and new shoots sprouted from the ground behind me, quickly growing into a natural recliner, where I lay down lazily.

"You two don't need to stay in Eden to guard me all the time. You can do what interests you. Just don't use your powers to affect the planet's ecology."

“Then I’ll go out for a stroll with Fukalos,” Buyer said happily. She had long wanted to see different parts of the planet, especially the Amazon rainforest, which is the most ecologically vibrant rainforest on the planet.

"Go ahead and have fun," Los Saint said with a smile. He had never restricted their freedom on this planet.

After speaking, a golden notebook appeared in his hand, which he slowly opened.

After returning, he was busy scolding Artoria and hadn't even opened the 'Administrator Log' yet, which kept reminding him of the changes that had occurred.
