Chapter 1028: Chapter 913: Real-Name Registration Binding

Ricochet’s bell tower speech brought both good and bad news for the Oasis Peace Company.

The good news was that his resurrection had convinced many in the Oasis of the existence of the God of Life.

The bad news, however, was that they had no idea where the messenger of this God of Life had come from. Worse yet, this individual was attempting to emulate those from the encirclement war era, threatening to wipe out the Brotherhood.

The miracle brought Ricochet a considerable number of followers, and the garrisons of neighboring cities responded to his call.

Within just one day, the leaders of the Brotherhood experienced a shift from having everything to having nothing. Worse still, as they realized the situation was irreversible, the company seemed ready to sever ties with the Brotherhood.

The meeting room was left with him alone.

The complete loss of his elite team in the search for the Divine Artifact made him realize that even the "Deity" could no longer control the situation.

The "Deity" had promised him a place for him and the Brotherhood in the upcoming new era.

He walked into the secret door.

The familiar statue still sat there, two lines of ominous blood tears seeping from the statue’s eyes, trailing down to the floor.

The whispers emanating from the statue claimed to be the God of Life, the most celebrated deity "beyond," believed by many to have helped humanity emerge from the shadows of the Third War and to have forged a new kingdom.

He had never questioned the identity of the other party before, but the recent events forced him to reconsider.

Could this whisper that claimed to be the God of Life be a fake?

"Who exactly are you?"

The blood on the ground had spread to his feet, and both the statue and the entire secret room no longer felt sacred but were instead filled with the stench of decay and death.

It was as if a deceitful veil had been torn away, revealing its true face.

"It seems I can no longer rely on you."

The familiar voice, which had changed in tone, and the joking, light laughter in the tone plunged the ruler’s heart into despair, "Although you didn’t bring Lu Xiang before me, it isn’t entirely without gains."

The man in front of the statue wanted to say something, but he found that he could not make a sound at all. The strong nausea made his head dizzy, and he instinctively covered his throat with his hands.

Breathing became increasingly difficult, and weakness forced him to kneel on the ground.

The blood reached his trouser legs, and the acrid smell continuously burrowed into his nose.

The man’s vision blurred as he saw his skin ulcerate on the back of his hand, sickening pus mixing with the blood to form a reddish-pink viscous fluid.

"You—"

His lips moved like a dehydrated fish, but ultimately, not a sound emerged.

"Since you refuse to accept the blessings of the God of Life, then accept the baptism of death. Faith is not the only means of collecting power."

Before his vision plunged into darkness, the man heard this voice.

At least in the end, he got his answer.

What he had been facing all along was indeed a self-proclaimed God of Life imposter.

.........

The true ruler of the Brotherhood was dead.

That afternoon, Oasis received explosive news.

His body was discovered at home, suspected to have contracted an unknown virus, with widespread skin ulceration; initial autopsy results suggested that the cause of death was a respiratory infection triggered by the disease.

Only at the moment of his confirmed death did the true identity of this ruler of the Brotherhood come to light.

No one expected him to exit history’s stage in such a manner.

As the second encirclement war raged on, with Ricochet at the center of the opposition, their ultimate foe was found dead from illness at home.

Even "Nothingness" cast a skeptical glance at Song Lan upon hearing this news.

But soon, a more terrifying news spread swiftly through Oasis.

An unknown epidemic had struck the nation.

Even though the hospital that discovered the incident initiated quarantine procedures immediately, it could not nip the epidemic in the bud.

Similar deaths began appearing across various parts of Oasis.

The initial symptoms were respiratory infections, followed by widespread skin ulcerations, rapid cardiac and respiratory failure, often leading to death within an hour of confirmed infection.

Experts suspected that the virus was airborne, but due to the virus’s rapid spread and nearly 100% fatality rate, the Oasis government could not assemble medical teams in time.

The emergence of the epidemic also completely blocked the escape plans of the people of Oasis.

Upon receiving the news, cities immediately banned entry to people from Oasis.

The only advice doctors could offer was for everyone to stay at home, close doors and windows, and pray that they could survive this sudden plague.

In the words of the experts, they had never seen such a horrifying virus, and what was even more terrifying was that during the emergency press conference, everyone saw the doctor’s skin begin to ulcerate on camera. Half an hour later, news of the doctor’s death spread rapidly online, with none of the medical team surviving.

"It seems this is the reinforcement they called for."

"Nothingness" looked down from the window. It wasn’t completely dark yet, but not a single pedestrian could be seen on the streets anymore, as everyone had returned home and closed up their doors and windows.
