Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 835: Chapter 390: Harvest

The Witness and the Book Holder were once companions.

They trusted and helped each other, being among the earliest electors within the ark.

The Book Holder unearthed talents globally, while the Witness built a powerful bounty organization, namely, the Wilderness Ranger!

During that period, their cooperation was close.

Some of the human talents discovered by the Book Holder joined the Wilderness Ranger, and the Wilderness Ranger aided the Book Holder’s actions worldwide.

This made the Wilderness Ranger flourish for a time.

During that time, the Rangers primarily handled orders from Ark Chosen Ones.

If they wanted a missing material, they didn’t need to trade with other Ark Chosen Ones; they only had to place an order with the Witness. The Wilderness Ranger would collect the target material as swiftly as possible.

In normal times, the Wilderness Ranger also hunted bounty targets in the wilderness and collected rewards in the Giant City.

That period could be considered their honeymoon.

However, at a certain time, their ideologies diverged. A divergence neither party could tolerate.

The Book Holder believed the Rangers had completely deviated from their original beliefs.

While the Witness thought the Book Holder was playing with others’ destinies.

This led to intense conflict between the two camps.

Ultimately, a bloody battle erupted, ending with the Witness’s defeat.

Even with the help of the Wilderness Ranger, he couldn’t fight against the Book Holder possessing the Book of Destiny.

The elite Rangers suffered severe losses, and he himself lost contact with the Rangers for years.

To avoid influence from the Book of Destiny, the Witness hid himself in a particularly special area, usually only able to communicate briefly and ambiguously with the outside world.

Only during the ark gathering could he stably connect with the world outside.

And now, Li Yelai has proven his stance with actions.

Every member of the Sharp Blade Team is a hero of humanity, indisputably!

Facing the onslaught of millions of Alien Race Army, the Sharp Blade Force surged up against the tide and successfully breached the Time Tree, a glory enough to be recorded in history!

Of course, more importantly, the gaze of the Master of Green Flames from the future glanced over Li Yelai.

If Li Yelai truly had issues, he wouldn’t be alive today!

“So, I can only normally contact him around the next gathering?” Li Yelai asked, “Such a hassle?”

“His opponent is none other than the Book Holder who possesses the Book of Destiny! No one wants their fate to be controlled by destiny’s path. The space where the predecessor resides is extremely strange and mysterious, even dangerous. Yet it also guarantees he won’t be manipulated by the Book of Destiny. If you contact now, it’s estimated you’d take a week to finish a sentence.” Yun Yue explained, “I’ll proactively reach out to you when the timing is accurate.”

To evade the Book of Destiny… indeed, that’s a method, turning the Witness into a variable within the Book of Destiny. The information and intel he provides aren’t in the script of the Book of Destiny. It’s indeed a way to crack the Book of Destiny.

“Well, we’re all Ark Chosen Ones. This way is safer.” Li Yelai sighed, “The feeling of having your horse armor ripped off, really not good.”

“Then you better be more careful. Divine Chosen Emperor Fall, Champion Agent, Chosen Copper Face… whichever identity is known, you’d be very passive. Keep in mind, in the ark and the physical world, there are hidden enemies.” Yun Yue said, “In the ark alone, besides you, there are at least three Chaos Chosen Ones. Possibly even more.”

Li Yelai nodded and asked, “What’s your ark code name?”

“Li Ming.” Yun Yue flatly spoke.

Li Yelai was stunned; in his memory, Li Ming seemed to be a staunch iron-blooded man operating in the South Asia Region, holding a Fourth Ring Seat.

Unexpectedly, that was Yun Yue’s horse armor….

Regarding the Fourth Ring Seat, Yun Yue’s time of advancing to Sixth Sense hadn’t been long; he likely hadn’t challenged the Third Ring Seat yet.

“Your disguise skill is really strong.” Li Yelai genuinely praised.

Ark Chosen Ones who enter the ark will try their best to disguise, Li Yelai didn’t have the option then, as he was substituting Copper Face. He couldn’t change much.

If Li Yelai were to enter the ark with a new identity, the authorities would probably advise him to use the Reversal Mirror… Tsk!

“Is Chu He your companion?” Li Yelai asked.

“Yes, but he’s not a Ranger. As fellow Believers of the Master of Green Flames, the understanding of faith differs. As a Chosen of the Double Gods, you should understand.”

“I know.” Li Yelai nodded.

Even within the Blood God Faction, the understanding of faith towards the Blood God varies.

Some factions focus on quantity, ignoring the disparity in levels, even specializing in slaughtering weaker opponents to please the Blood River through the sheer number of slaughters.

While other factions emphasize quality.

That is, specializing in challenging opponents not inferior to themselves, even stronger rivals. Through arduous combat, they take down the enemy’s head to please the Evil God.

Some, taking an abstract route… perhaps influenced by Jile, a Believer once proposed that every act of love-making is akin to killing, intending to please the Evil God this way. Resulted in being sliced into pulp by a passing Demon General.

Apart from such abstract interpretations, other understandings of faith are of little concern to the Blood God.

Whether slaughtering the weak or the strong. As long as it’s slaughter, He will accept it.

Of course, if the Cross-level Battle involves killing opponents, He would be even more delighted.

Champion Team One had Blood God’s fixed focus for a similar reason.
