Demon Queen Rebirth: I Reincarnated as a Living Armor?!-Chapter 701 - Galaxy-Level Hegemony

-----

Within the depths of the space, there is a near-endless amount of darkness, stars, planets, and galaxies, all of them flashing across the entirety of this universe's existence. Gathered together to make the entirety of the beauty across the Outer Universe, as it is said to be named.

Within the confines of such a beautiful and extensive space, there is a certain race of entities that had mapped almost 20% of the entire Universe by themselves, an incredible feat that not many other beings had ever accomplished, and which extensive knowledge they used for their seek of… life.

Indeed, this race was formed in a faraway planet eons ago, a small lifeform capable of assimilating everything. It had evolved in this way through the harsh environment of its planet, and it assimilated, mutated, and adapted to everything, copying existing genes and replicating them, fusing them, and upgrading itself to completely new levels of perfection like nothing there has ever been.

This race of beings quickly spread across the planet, devoured everything, assimilated it, and turned into a mass made of many yet a single entity.

The hivemind.

This race of entities had not know defeat yet. They had continued to relentlessly expand across their Galaxy and had quickly take over it, quickly expanding into the Outer Universe, where they began to spread and infect many more Galaxies with their grotesque forces.

As they had lived for eons, they had managed to travel incredibly vast amounts of distances, mapping up to 20% of the known universe by themselves, and sharing this information through an advanced connected mind, which shares this with every single organism.

They possess massive hivemind which expands to every single entity within the Universe. Many interplanetary and intergalactic empires had fallen before their incredible might, and they had absorbed countless life forms, civilizations, and more to the point they had learned how to even utilize the power of Psionic Energy, the ability to use Mind Powers and also the ability to wield and utilize to perfection the energy known as Mana, which was rather rare in their area of the Universe until they expanded further, reaching to areas where there were beings that utilized powers that were not just technology. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

Without any concept of cultivation or anything of the sort other than to devour more biomass to become wider, bigger, and plenty, the Hivemind had continued expanding, and it had finally become a problem that involved many galaxies and the councils of greater beings across the Universe couldn't ignore this vicious race of creatures anymore… 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

However, as of now, no divine being had stepped into their path and fought them as they had only been confronted by highly technological mortals or races of mortals with great magical powers. Originally thinking that magic, due to their lack of specialization, was their weakness only made many more of these magic-wielders see their demise as they were devoured and assimilated into the Hivemind.

Of course, all of this changed when one of their Units sent to a faraway terraformed planet that had emerged a few billions of years ago suddenly came across relentless magic users and then, against a pair of powerful divine beings which the Hivemind had yet to confront. The fight was incredible as such beings were even able to wield the power of space and the void itself, but that only yielded more gains to the Hivemind as they adapted and overcame such challenges, even defying the power of Supreme Gods, and two of them at the same time.

And the worst part? It was only a single, weak Unit that was mostly used to spread and take over small planets. The true Hiveminds and the strongest Units were even bigger, more monstrously intelligent, relentless, and incredibly good at adapting.

The Hivemind main mind which was deposited in the middle of the Hivemind Galaxy, their home Galaxy where this race originated, had the size of a sun if not even bigger, it was a massive entity made of red flesh and countless eyes and tentacles spreading across the entire Galaxy's core, absorbing energy from the Galaxy itself.

It had parasitized the Galaxy Core and was using it as a Core and a source of power, this entity already was a Galaxy-Level entity by itself, but it mostly remained unmoving within outer space, analyzing everything that its children did across the Universe as if it were a massive computer.

This entity analyzed the power of the entities that the Unit had fought, the two goddesses with enormous powers, although the Unit had fought a lot, it was ultimately defeated and restrained through the two goddesses combined efforts, fusing together into a gigantic tree, and forcing the massive Hivemind Unit into a slumber below the planet's tectonic plates.

Of course, the Hivemind had actually not been sleeping as it had been working relentlessly to one day break free from this restraint and complete its mission of assimilation of all biomasses into its entire being, despite the tree's relentless efforts to absorb its energy and even multiplying itself and restraining it with many bodies, the Hivemind was evolving and adapting at a rapid and terrifying pace.

However, as it felt like that things might not change in too long, the Hivemind Unit had begun to emanate signals that traveled across the Universe incredibly quickly, reaching its mother unit, the Hivemind Main Mind and Body, the center of the Hivemind Galaxy.

The Hivemind Main Mind and Body analyzed the information and quickly decided to act, moving its entire presence across the Universe, and employing some new Units to aid the trapped Unit in the faraway Terraformed Planet… there was no room for losing here.

The new Hivemind Units were of a different shape rather than spherical as they had evolved greatly over even more eons, rushing through outer space and trying to quickly meet with their lost Unit.

They were relentless and powerful enough ton employ a combination of magic and incredible efficient locomotion and energy propelling to the point they were able to traverse outer space as fleshy entities without problems…
