Inside the Lord God Space.
A flash of light, and Charles’s figure emerged.
[Final World Task – Mystery! Completed!]
[Received 300,000 Contribution Points and one S-grade Voucher!]
…
Accompanying this, there was also the mechanical and grand voice of the Lord God. However, Charles was completely unable to focus on these matters.
His body was covered in wounds, some areas already exposing pale white bones. Not a single drop of blood remained at the wounds. Even as a third-tier reincarnator, sustaining such injuries nearly proved unbearable.
Yet Charles remained dazed, not even calling upon the healing functions of the Lord God Space.
“Lolita… what exactly were you thinking?”
He murmured, recalling his previous experiences in the vampire zombie world.
…
Within the underground laboratory, giants and wind-eyes had all fallen. A large hole had been torn open in Charles’s chest, and he gasped heavily, staring at Lolita before him.
Clearly, she wasn’t in a good state either, her body covered with wounds caused by psychic energy, injuries that couldn’t even be healed by her vampiric blood abilities. Yet at this moment, her condition was visibly better than Charles’s.
“Could it actually be this strong?”
Charles found it hard to believe. This obsessive woman had clearly surpassed him in the path of enhancements.
“But I still have a trump card!”
He secretly gripped a small sword made as if from diamonds within his private space.
“Charles… I still remember, the first time we met, you gave me your coat…”
For some reason, Lolita suddenly stopped at this moment, her expression somewhat frenzied: “As repayment, I’ll give you a dignified death and a solemn grave!”
“That’s truly appreciated…”
Charles casually replied, trying to buy time for his secret actions: “Lolita, you’ve surpassed me. With this level of strength, accumulating enough contribution points and vouchers to complete a resurrection should be a simple matter, right?”
Whoosh!
A flash of crimson light appeared in Lolita’s eyes, and a wound suddenly appeared on Charles’s shoulder.
“You don’t understand!”
She hissed: “You don’t know what price I paid to gain such power! Now even my soul no longer belongs to me!”
Lolita revealed her pale arm, adorned with a strange crimson snake tattoo. Its tail coiled, extending all the way into her shoulder, clearly only part of a larger design.
“Do you see it? This tattoo signifies that my soul already belongs to another existence. Even my own will is no longer under my control!”
Lolita laughed bitterly: “But fortunately, in exchange, I’ve obtained this power, enough to bring her back… Now, please die!”
Only when mentioning the person she intended to resurrect did a flicker of tenderness cross her face. It quickly turned cold again as she stepped forward.
“It’s you who should die! Psychic Sword!”
Charles’s eyes flashed with determination as a massive psychic force erupted forth. Within it, a crystalline small sword flew out at lightning speed, piercing into Lolita’s eyes.
Puh!
Lolita swayed, then fell to the ground, a smile appearing on her face: “You finally did it…”
Her voice was soft and murmuring, then her eyes slowly closed.
“What’s going on?”
A strong sense of unease suddenly gripped Charles’s heart. Thinking about Lolita’s final mysterious smile, he rushed forward frantically: “You already knew I would counterattack? Right? Why? Why would you do this?”
“Because only this way can I sever the mark of that existence…”
From Lolita’s cold corpse, a blood-red crystal emitted a voice: “Now that I’ve brought her back, I have no further attachments. Thank you, Charles. Only you could accomplish this…”
Bang!
With the words spoken, the blood-red crystal exploded into pieces.
“Roar!”
On Lolita’s corpse, the tattoo seemed to come alive, suddenly devouring the body entirely and transforming into a strange serpent, letting out a resentful roar…
…
“Lord God Space, activate healing!”
After a long silence, Charles finally spoke softly.
Immediately, a column of milky white light enveloped him, and his injuries rapidly healed.
“Lolita, you were a strong woman, choosing to end it all yourself?”
He had already realized that all of this was likely a setup.
Perhaps even selling him the psychic sword item had been Lolita’s arrangement, aiming to use his hands to grant her release.
After all, within the entire Lord God Space, only he, the Psychic King, could activate that item.
“She had already resolved to die…”
Charles’s mood was complex, indescribable.
“Lord God, can I resurrect Lolita?”
Still holding onto a slim hope, he asked.
[Yes. Perfect Resurrection Option: Requires 1,000,000 Contribution Points, one X-grade Voucher. Can specify any deceased reincarnator to be resurrected at peak condition!]
[Normal Resurrection Option: Can only resurrect contracted team members or those providing a soul-linked item. Requires 500,000 Contribution Points, one S-grade resurrection item!]
…
The Lord God Space immediately responded, listing various options.
Looking at them, Charles could only smile bitterly.
He vaguely sensed that the Lord God Space strongly encouraged resurrecting teammates or other reincarnators.
Within the Lord God Space, solo players couldn’t survive long. One must have several teammates capable of entrusting one’s life.
However, this created mutual obligations, forming restraints. Even if one individual met the conditions for escape, they might choose not to leave, remaining to fight for the entire team.
And for a lone reincarnator, escaping was already a matter of luck. For an entire team to accumulate enough contribution points and vouchers?
Like Charles himself, although he had already gathered enough points to regain his physical body and return to the real world, if there was an opportunity, would he resurrect Dark Sand?
Accumulating like this, the final result would be that all reincarnators were firmly bound within the Lord God Space!
“Dark Sand, and Lolita…”
Like Charles now, although he had already vaguely sensed the trap, he had placed the resurrection of teammates on his agenda.
“I originally planned, after completing this mission, to immediately choose resurrection and return to the real world…”
These corporeal reincarnators, aside from needing to respond to the summons of corresponding reincarnation worlds, spent their usual time in the real world, just like Siegel.
But original spirit reincarnators were different. To obtain the same treatment, they must first undergo a resurrection ritual, at minimum requiring an S-grade voucher as a threshold.
Yet now, looking at the voucher in his hand, Charles hesitated.
His current savings could fully complete the resurrection ritual, but if he also wanted to resurrect his teammates, it would certainly be insufficient.
“Alright, I’ll go see the real world first! There are always some matters to resolve.”
His eyes flickered uncertainly, and finally, he made his decision: “Lord God, I want to return to the real world!”
[Ding! Reincarnator’s physical body has perished. If wishing to return to the real world, requires spending 10,000 Contribution Points to exchange for a three-day free period!]
[Note: If not spending an additional 10,000 Contribution Points to exchange for a temporary physical body, the reincarnator will only be able to exist in the real world as a spirit!]
The Lord God Space immediately responded, surprisingly quickly.
“Exchange for time and a physical body!”
Having recently acquired a large sum, Charles could now afford to be generous. With a wave of his hand, 20,000 Contribution Points vanished, and he was immediately enveloped in a column of light.
…
In the Kingdom of Golden Oak, deep within a dark, narrow alley.
The stinking gutter emitted a rotten odor, with rats and other small animals occasionally scurrying by. Even the homeless and scavengers avoided this place.
Buzzzz!
Suddenly, within the previously silent alley, a white light sphere appeared.
Lightning struck, the space in the middle shattered, vaguely revealing a luminous door-like shape.
After a while, the phenomenon disappeared, leaving only some electric sparks flickering around, as a completely naked, tall, well-built, muscular bald man slowly stood up, resembling a bodybuilding champion.
“Stingy Lord God Space, not even giving me a set of clothes!”
This person was naturally Charles, who had exchanged for the three-day visit.
He first touched his face and chin, only to find, with some confusion, that it felt no different from his body in the Lord God Space.
But when he took a deep breath, stepped out of the alley, and saw the pale blue sky, the concrete buildings, and the distant chimneys and black smoke, an indescribable sense of emotion welled up in his heart.
“This is the Kingdom of Golden Oak… I’m really back!”
He murmured, tears involuntarily welling up.
“Stop there!”
At this moment, two patrol officers on the street spotted his condition and immediately shouted, running over: “This is a public place, sir. Where is your identification?”
“Eh?”
Charles felt somewhat embarrassed. He had long been killed by a car crash in this world and had become an undocumented person. How could he produce proof?
The kingdom’s patrol officers usually dealt with such homeless individuals by sending them to detention centers and then handing them over to welfare organizations. He certainly didn’t want to waste time.
“Officers, I can explain. You know about free behavior artists? I am one!”
Charles smiled: “Our Beast School requires us to open our hearts and communicate with nature…”
Although he spoke nonsense, his eyes contained an indescribable power.
The two officers immediately nodded: “Right, you’re absolutely correct!”
“Then, officers, could you help me a small favor and give me a ride?”
With a smile in his eyes, Charles walked directly toward the police car.
Right now, he already somewhat understood that he could never return to his past.
