Reincarnation Paradise
chapter-824

"After more than ten hours, on the outskirts of the ancient ruins, over a hundred contract holders entered the old site, dressed in various styles, some in suits and others in leather armor. A mage walked at the forefront of the group of contract holders; he was the fire-type mage competing with Su Xiao for the 'Holy Oak Branch."

The fire-type mage's name was Yanchen, his real name rather than a nickname or pseudonym. For Yanchen, using a pseudonym was unnecessary; most contract holders used pseudonyms to avoid being recognized in the real world and putting their families or friends at risk.

Yanchen was different; he had no family left, most of whom died at his hands, except for his younger sister. When Yanchen killed his own family, he felt nothing but pleasure. To him, they were strangers, or rather, enemies.

Yanchen grew up in an orphanage and had no emotional connection with those people. Moreover, they did terrifying things for the wealth he inherited, including hiring people to kidnap him and subjecting him to torture.

Yanchen's only remaining family member was his sister, a contract holder. What surprised many was that she was not only his confidant but also his lover. Yes, Yanchen had a particular penchant for 'German Orthopedics,' a form of attraction to one's younger sister.

Perhaps due to a lack of experience of family affection or other reasons, Yanchen was a siscon. When he found out about having a sister, his first thought was being with her.

Yanchen succeeded.

Moreover, he thrived in the Reincarnation Park, establishing a large adventure group called the 'Mingmen Adventure Group.' This was the only large-scale adventure group on Reincarnation Park's side in this world conflict. Second-tier, large adventure groups were rare.

"It's finally starting. Hina has been very active lately." Yanchen held a gold-quality magic staff and wore three dark purple-quality suits. His intelligence attribute reached 80 points, while his stamina attribute was 71. Yanchen was not only a mage but also a rare type, a mage-tank.

"Bro, can I kill people?" A girl with twin tails spoke; she was Yanchen's younger sister. Upon hearing his sister's words, Yanchen frowned, causing nearby contract holders to change their expressions.

"You can."

"Great!" The girl with twin tails raised her arms, and a blood-red scythe appeared in her hand. One female contract holder, dressed in office attire, leaned close to Yanchen's ear.

"Boss, is this... okay? If Qianqian kills indiscriminately, she might attack us."

The office-dressed beauty looked worriedly at Qianqian, the girl with twin tails, who almost died at the hands of another in a derivative world. "No problem." Yanchen turned to look at Qianqian and continued, "Qianqian, don't kill our people."

"Okay, I'll try my best." Qianqian spun the scythe in her hand and cheerfully ran into the ancient ruins. "Chopping one, chopping two, la la la~." Watching Qianqian gradually run away, a smile appeared on Yanchen's face.

The office-dressed beauty beside him sighed helplessly. She was a charisma-based contract holder, relatively safer within the team. Therefore, mentally normal and with proper values, the office-dressed beauty felt despair as a psychologically average and morally neutral person.

Her boss, Yanchen, was not quite normal, and as for the other's sister, she was a monster disguised in beautiful skin. Gradually, members of the Mingmen Adventure Group delved deeper into the ancient ruins. Meanwhile, a ghost-like figure emerged from underground. "A total of 186 people. These should be 'Magician No.1's' subordinates."

The ghostly figure was Lüli, using special abilities to enter the ancient ruins. "Another group? This time... two individuals." Lüli disappeared amidst the rubble while two female contract holders entered the ruins.

"I said it's salty, but you insist on sweetening it. You're unbelievable." A female contract holder wearing tight combat gear, adorned with black gloves, walked over. She toyed with a gold coin in her hand.

"I like sweet things; what can I do?" A drowsy-looking girl wearing a one-piece pajama suit and a hood approached. At the edge of her hood, a slender tentacle peeked out.

"Hmm? Someone's watching us." The tired girl halted; several insect legs emerged from the ground nearby. "It's okay, I noticed it early." The two women walked deeper into the ruins. They were Ada and Bug Sis, the counterfeit Lucky Goddess and Insect Sister who had clashed with Su Xiao before.

...

One after another, contract holders from the Reincarnation Park entered the ancient ruins. Their destination was the same: the central Twilight Palace. The map previously posted by Su Xiao in the war channel made their target clear.

Under the threat of forced execution, it didn't take 24 hours, merely 20 hours, for all the contract holders from the Reincarnation Park to gather inside the ancient ruins. Over seven hundred contract holders gathered near the Twilight Palace.

Among these seven hundred people were nine adventure groups—eight medium-sized and one large-sized. As for small-sized groups, none had been spotted yet, but there were quite a few self-organized teams among the individual players.

In such a large-scale battle, the command was naturally in the hands of the various adventure group leaders. Some influential individual players also had a say. On the seventh floor of the Twilight Palace, several dozen people gathered. Among them were nine group leaders, three individual players, and the close aides of those leaders.

These dozens of people either stood or sat on the seventh floor. Some were playing cards, while others were disassembling firearms.

"What's that strange smell?" A contract holder spoke, his brows tightly furrowed, his face twisted in disgust, likely suffering from germaphobia.

"Yes, I smelled something strange when we entered."

"It seems to be coming from the direction of the throne."

"Should we check it out?"

"I'm not sure about that." The contract holders discussed amongst themselves, and a lone individual stepped out from the crowd, unconcerned about the commands of those leaders.

"Grizzly, who allowed you near the throne?" A golden-haired, mature woman spoke; her name was Nasa, the Fantasy Realm Adventure Group leader. She had previously fought with Su Xiao over the 'Holy Oak Branch,' her younger brother was the boy who was duped by Su Xiao, Iron Pillar.

"Tch." The lone ranger, Grizzly, glanced at Nasa and disregarded her. He approached the throne but didn't get close to the dried bones; instead, he searched around the throne and soon found a suspicious puddle on the side of the throne.

"What's this?" Grizzly crouched down, examining the suspicious liquid on the ground. This fellow was quite courageous; most contract holders were cautious about unknown things, but Grizzly was different. He had ventured through solely on his courage.

"Could this be something leaking from the throne?" A contract holder behind Grizzly showed a glint of curiosity. They had observed the dried bones on the throne and speculated that it was not to be trifled with.

Grizzly's finger pointed at the liquid on the ground. With a serious tone, he said, "Non-corrosive and non-toxic." After making this preliminary judgment, Grizzly put the finger, soaked in the 'unknown liquid,' into his mouth. His oral cavity had been strengthened to analyze over a thousand elemental compositions.

"What does it taste like? Any bonuses or attributes added?" Iron Pillar approached his conspicuous minotaur lord armguard on his hand.

"Salty. Let me analyze it carefully." Grizzly closed his eyes, sensing the components of the unknown liquid. His face gradually turned bluish as he perceived it, veins bulging on his forehead. Urea + uric acid + creatinine + creatine + amino acids + ammonia + β-hydroxybutyric acid + inorganic salts + water + trace elements = urine!

"Damn it!" A roar echoed on the seventh floor of the Twilight Palace, followed by a burst of laughter."
