Volume 2 Chapter 108: Humanity's Grand Offensive

Faith.

On Earth, this concept is rarely connected to cutting-edge fields like physics or mathematics.

But upon opening the articles written by the Exif, humanity was shocked to discover that a large portion of their scientific papers revolved around their faith. And not just mere discussions of belief—in these papers, faith was embedded directly into their calculations.

They would, for example:

Analyze the number of pages in their sacred texts to determine which model of component should be used in the latest machinery.

Deduce the answer to a mathematical problem by inferring it from the divine shapes depicted in illustrations of miracles, and then work backward to construct a logical proof.

Declare that something was impossible, based solely on a passage from their scripture, and then the entire civilization would abandon that line of research—only to succeed phenomenally by pursuing the exact opposite instead.

Incomprehensible. Unacceptable.

Every single paper contained an interpretation of faith.

In Exif research, a significant portion of their "scientific method" wasn’t based on mathematics, but on faith itself.

They would calculate celestial sizes and masses with eerie precision by cross-referencing verses and page numbers.

They determined ideal city locations based on the grammatical structure of introductory phrases on specific pages.

This completely alien method of science was laid bare before the stunned scientists of Earth.

They looked at one another, bewildered. Why?

Why would anyone do science like this?

And more importantly—why did it actually work?

This was the greatest blow to their logical reasoning that many scholars had ever faced.

It’s one thing for religious individuals to pursue scientific research.

It’s another thing entirely to use faith as the method of scientific inquiry.

And yet, the Exif had derived valid numbers and conclusions, over and over again, through this exact process.

Humanity could neither accept nor understand it.

But no matter how deeply they rejected the methodology in their hearts, they couldn’t deny the magical truth stamped right in their faces:

The Exif's predictions—based entirely on cryptic interpretations of religious texts—were always accurate.

They used verses to predict planetary orbits, and their calculations had zero margin of error.

They would extract a unique interpretation of a passage, apply that interpretation to an unrelated concept, and—after repeated testing—confirm it as true.

They’d break apart different lines of scripture and count how often certain phrases appeared in the next book they planned to read to determine spacecraft component specifications.

They’d take vague prophecies and forcefully apply them to specific future dates, declaring they would solve a given problem on that day—and somehow, they always did.

The Exif’s faith-based research was more shocking than even the results recorded in their papers.

Even though the data in their papers was accurate…

Even though the Exif truly did evolve into a civilization possibly more advanced than the Bilusaludo, every scientist who read their papers wanted to reject them.

They wanted to deny the role faith played in those results.

And so, with heavy and conflicted hearts, humanity's scholars began their study of the files delivered by the Exif.

It was precisely around this time that strange phenomena began to stir in the minds of the scholars who had read the alien documents.

Ten days passed quickly.

With the continuous analysis of the technologies delivered by both the Exif and the Bilusaludo, humanity's science and technology began to climb at an astonishing speed.

Almost every laboratory around the world halted their usual research and redirected their focus to a critical task:

Screening the alien technologies to determine which ones could be recreated with current human capabilities.

After all, even if humanity now had blueprints for superior fusion reactors and other advanced devices, they still lacked the necessary materials to build them.

And when trying to create those materials, they discovered that even the robots needed to produce them couldn’t yet be built.

So they traced backward—step by step—trying to find the earliest point in the chain where human technology could take over.

That became the labs’ main focus:

Sifting through countless documents to find those golden nuggets of technology that could immediately be realized.

Technologies like high-current, high-temperature superconductors. Certain types of lightweight ultra-hard metals. Fusion reactors with improved energy balance. More efficient chip architectures. Better optical tweezers. Advanced cement formulas—

All were rapidly developed and, with the help of robotic assistance, immediately pushed into mass production.

Each research team first analyzed which technologies would become obsolete quickly, and which ones would remain foundational.

Robots were then directed to prioritize the construction of those long-lasting advancements.

A blossoming wave of innovation began to surge across the globe.

A new dawn for human civilization was rising on the horizon.

New and superior grades of steel—ready for mass production—were used to build next-generation robotic armies.

These machines were sent to the wildernesses of Asia and North America, areas that had been ravaged by the Ghidorah virus.

There, they fought, and as they fought, they replicated themselves, spreading like a tide of reclamation.

The 100,000 Bilusaludo who had emerged from cryosleep settled in New Eden.

At first, the general public feared these towering aliens, but after meeting them, they realized that these were gentle giants, kind and sincere.

As for the Exif visitors, upon hearing that Earth’s scientific teams could not comprehend their faith-based papers, they volunteered to help—removing the religious framework and gradually translating their findings into human scientific logic, step by step.

In Europe, the Middle East, and beyond, massive numbers of robots and the help of Bilusaludo ambassador Mutto Lorenlo spearheaded a new campaign.

Enormous spacecraft descended above forests infected by the virus and engulfed the monsters in cleansing fire.

Only East Asia, home to horrifying monsters born from the corpses of Ghidorah's Wings, remained unclaimed.

But elsewhere—Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, and North America—the largest infection zones were cleansed.

Humanity, with alien assistance, had begun to take back the Earth.

Ten days after the arrival of the aliens, humanity had gone from controlling only Western Europe, South Africa, coastal East Asia, and the Americas, to reclaiming almost the entire planet, save for East Asia, Australia, and the Far East.

Human civilization once again dominated the globe.

Even the most dangerous areas no longer saw desperate refugee migrations.

Life had returned to order.

In just ten days, human society had gone from confusion and despair, to a firm, hopeful resolve.

But in those same ten days—

Something escaped from deep beneath Cambridge…

Something that would change the future of this planet forever.
