Epic Of Caterpillar

With Charlotte's robots' assistance, we brought the Dual Realm Core inside of the facility. It was indeed tremendously big down there. After all it wasn't the "Abyss" of the Dungeon Continent for nothing! Charlotte showed us her gigantic device, which she immediately started to improve using her new [Cosmic Mechanoid Queen Authority: [Endless Mechanization]: Lv1] Skill. Metallic pieces surging out of thin air as she masterfully manipulated her own Cosmic Energy.

Clank, clank…!

The sound of metal arranging and combining was rather nice, I stared silently as Charlotte finished all the areas and parts she couldn't do before. She was amazed and fascinated with her new Skill, which finally resolves a few of the problems her creations were suffering.

"And done! I think I'm done, yes! I've finally managed to fix the synapsis and the control cables. The cosmic energy battery and the injector have been further improved and perfected!" Charlotte said. The rest of our family was eating snacks while looking at their phones, quite boredly. My children were playing with the robots, having a bit more fun.

"You did it mama!" Electra, who was also helping her mother with her Advanced Technomancy Divine Magic had also made it possible for the entire device to be finished properly.

"Well done honey, you did a good job, but at the end, we still need to check if it works, right?" I asked her, as she nodded.

"You're right. I suppose we need to see how it works first and then decide if it needs further improvements and changes." She said. "Are you okay with trying it right away? It might risk breaking the Dual Realm Core a bit if it goes wrong…"

"Don't worry! I can easily heal it back using Cosmic Energy and my Cosmic Alchemy if it goes wrong." I smiled, giving her a head pat. "Go on honey. Let me place it for you over there."

"Thank you Kireina, you're such a supportive wife." She smiled, very happily.

"Aww, anything for you, my love." I smiled, happily moving the gigantic crystal in the middle of the tremendously large metallic device.

The device was designed so the crystal would grow upwards into several branches, resembling a tree. The "branches" would be one hundred meters each, perfectly. So once they grow, we can easily extract the branches and use them as World Cores to ascend the rest of my family, and perhaps friends, if they pay for it.

"And there… Oooh, it's starting up!"

I saw in shock as the entire device, of white and blue metallic color, glowed brightly. Many blue and red neon lights lighting up one after another. There were two gigantic containers where I placed dozens of Lesser Cosmic Treasures I harvested from my World Realm with a mere thought using my Cosmic Intent spread through it all.

The Cosmic Treasures were quickly absorbed and assimilated, turning into a blue cosmic liquid and then processed through the entire mechanical device, while then injecting itself into the Double Realm Core. An Aura of ever-growing cosmic essence surged form the entire mechanical construction.

"It's amazing…" Nephiana said, swallowing saliva in awe. "I knew Charlotte was very smart, but to make some technology that can process cosmic energy? That's on another whole level!"

"Yeah, it's truly amazing." Gaby nodded. "I wonder if we could use these Double Realm Core Fragments for something else than the Ascension from Supreme Gods to World Devourers though."

"Of course it should be possible!" Said Agatheina. "Such high-quality materials could be refined into brand new cores. Maybe we could use them to fuel the new mechs as well?"

"I had thought about that, yes." Charlotte nodded. "But for now, let's see if we can hasten the growth of the Dual Core first."

We watched in silence and with expectation as the device kept pumping cosmic energy into the Double Core. Eventually, its crystals began to grow rapidly. Spreading upwards into the many "branches". Surprisingly enough, it filled all ten branches in mere minutes, emptying all the cosmic energy from the cosmic treasures.

"W-We got all ten branches right away" Charlotte gasped. "It worked! As long as we add more cosmic treasures… Then we can produce as much as we want!"

"Amazing!" Faylen clapped. "It looks to be a total success, dear!" She looked at me, as I couldn't believe it yet.

"T-That's it?! Wait, really?!" I was shocked. "So with this, everyone can get to World Realm now! Nice! Alright, let's keep adding more lesser cosmic treasures then!"

I cut the branches and saved them inside my Item Box as we produced more and more. Ultimately, we decided to stop at 40 branches, as the machine was beginning to get very hot, like really hot. It needed to cool down.

Ding!

"Now that we got these, it is time for everyone to slowly Rank Up. We'll do this over time because I don't want everyone to get too exhausted. So for now, my queens first. Charlotte, Nephiana, Sakura, Altani, come over, time for your Rank Up as well. I will also call for Andromeda and Astraea." I said.
