Chapter 55: Chapter 55: Touching the Corpse Deity

Evil ceremonial patterns emerged on the ground, shadows twisting into unspeakable monsters that let out sharp, nauseating growls as they lunged forward.

At the same time...

Yang Qizhou’s surroundings distorted rapidly, fading into illusion and shattering. When he opened his eyes again, he was back inside the Diamond Building.

"Heh heh, bet you didn’t see this coming—I’ve got a save and load ability."

"Feels pretty damn good to freeload."

And it was freeloading, wasn’t it? Due to the worldline reset triggered by saving and loading, the mastermind from the Hermit Association had already forgotten what Yang Qizhou had revealed, including "having lured and killed a High Position Abyss Old God," and the attributes of the S-tier Destiny Achievement "Enemy of the Divine."

But Yang Qizhou hadn’t forgotten a single thing the other party let slip.

Meanwhile.

The masked mastermind had just left the Diamond Building—not unlike the experience of the previous timeline.

This time, Yang Qizhou opted not to follow up. After all, the "Dark Crow of Profane Fortune" save point had already been overwritten. Though it was unlikely, exposing himself would mean facing both the mastermind and the Hermit Association directly.

"I’ll say this: that mastermind’s wit and craftiness are genuinely sharp. He spoke a lot during our conversation, but crucially, aside from the Hermit Association’s creed, he revealed nothing related to core secrets."

"He didn’t even share his own title."

"The nickname ’Mr. Monster’ was something I came up with myself."

"Their plan to create an Abyss God was destroyed. Now, the Hermit Association probably loathes the lamp holder. With Hidden God’s Clothes in effect, I don’t have to worry about being found by them for now."

"Still, better be cautious."

...

...

Around 5 PM, Yang Qizhou returned home.

Zhao Xin and Ding Xiaolan were already back. Their encounter at the animation expo hadn’t left much of an impact on the mother-daughter pair. After exchanging greetings, they both went off to their own spaces.

"If Xin-jie knew that today, in the original timeline, she was destined to die—and that it was me, the great Desecrator of Destiny, who reset the worldline to save her—what kind of expression would she make?"

"Grateful tears, falling for me?"

"Then, would I accept, or accept, or... accept?"

"After all, who could say no to a woman with... flavor?"

"Heh heh."

After dinner, browsing short videos, and a couple of rounds of gaming, the time had already slipped past 11:40 PM.

In just over ten minutes, the opportunities for three revivals and five save-and-loads would reset—naturally marking the time to re-enter the battle on "ancient lands."

To ensure he had energy for the late-night fight, Yang Qizhou specially bought some duck dishes as his midnight snack, opting to deduct payment from his account balance.

[Insufficient balance]

????

A barrage of question marks circled in Yang Qizhou’s mind. Damn—what was this? The 300 yuan I earned in the previous timeline was supposed to have carried over. How could my balance be insufficient?

When he opened his wallet, he froze—the balance was zero.

A full three hundred big ocean.

Vanished without a trace.

"Damn it, it’s gotta be that cursed object again..."

Yang Qizhou suddenly thought of something and reached out. The mysterious, shimmering robe appeared before him—it was none other than Hidden God’s Clothes.

Clearly,

The mysterious disappearance of the 300 yuan was thanks to the negative effects of this Quasi-legendary ancient object.

"Damn, erasing even my wallet balance? That’s just cruel and inhuman."

After venting his frustration.

Yang Qizhou’s expression grew stern. He realized the gravity of the situation.

It had been two days since he obtained Hidden God’s Clothes, and the first activation of its negative effects had only erased duck dishes worth twenty yuan. But during the second activation, it had erased a full three hundred yuan.

The disparity in value was fifteen-fold.

What about the third activation, the fourth? If the erased value exponentially increased each time, it wouldn’t be long before Hidden God’s Clothes’ negative effects began erasing him—from the real world.

"I need to find a way to suppress the negative effects of this ancient object as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, I’ll have no choice but to abandon it."

Though he felt reluctant, Yang Qizhou knew that his own life was more important than holding onto a Quasi-legendary ancient object.

With no leads on this matter, Yang Qizhou shifted his focus to something else. At that moment, the clock’s hands had just crossed midnight—the Blessing Fire of Destiny burned brightly once again. His mind filled with the sharp cries of crows. The three revival and five save-and-load opportunities had all been refreshed.

Back to the game, back to the game.

Tonight, let’s push the plot forward and resolve the crisis at Fire Stealing Village—and successfully witness the Desecration Stone Plate mystery involving the hidden wizard.

"You opened your eyes again on a wilderness filled with unknown and the arcane."

"You saw this scene... The floating jellyfish in the air were all dead. The violet woodlands had completely withered. Green, eerie blood flowed across the ground. Massive corpses lay sprawled, half of their bodies already dissolved away."

"You then saw... Some Unknown Evil was drawn by inexplicable temptation, rushing into this land of beauty and horror combined. But as soon as it set foot there, the ground split open into a gaping maw, revealing a spiral of grotesque teeth that swallowed the creature whole."

"The crunching sound of shattered bones reached your ears, sending shivers down your spine."

"You recalled the Destiny Achievement prompt and gained sudden clarity."

"Not long ago, with dirty tricks, you lured the freed, resurrecting Abyss Old God near the Purple Orchid God’s Stomach. A divine clash ensued. The brutal battle led to the fall of both gods."

"Much like how a whale’s death sustains all around it, this region, steeped in divine blood and remains, has undergone transformations full of terror and strangeness alike."

"As the explorer who just cunningly slaughtered gods and earned the title Enemy of the Divine,"

"Will you choose to delve into the land of the two fallen gods to see if you can scrape up some loot?"

"Or will you retreat and return to Fire Stealing Village to inform Lena about the events in Dark Mist Town?"

"Make your choice."

What’s there to decide? Loot the bodies, of course...

Having experienced the benefits of looting divine corpses before, especially during the time the Dream Hidden King conceived—when he obtained Hidden God’s Clothes despite its terrifying negative effects—Yang Qizhou couldn’t deny its power.

Without this item, his Game Character wouldn’t even have made it out of Fire Stealing Village, let alone reach his current full epic and quasi-legendary setup.

Option one it is.
