Miss Witch, it's time to clean up the entries

Chapter 368 Tiger's Arrangements

"Jessica, how long will it take you to revive Dani?"

Lee asked Jessica.

“I don’t know. The body parts of the great god Dani are not complete. I can only try my best. If the great wizard were still alive, she might be able to help me. Unfortunately, the great wizard is dead.”

Jessica lowered her head. She wasn't entirely confident that she could successfully resurrect Dani. After all, Dani was a true god, and the ritual to resurrect Him was different from that of resurrecting any evil god.

“I can’t give you back a Marian, but you can go back to Fia. She will help you. Fia should have already learned a lot of Marian’s witchcraft.”

Li En suggested.

Jessica nodded. "In that case, I'll leave the rift ahead of time."

Although Jessica believed she was very strong, she also felt a sense of loss that she was dispensable in this team. After all, the other party was a man who could command four angels, so he probably didn't need her combat power.

“Go back. Remember our agreement: Dani can be resurrected, but only if he forms an alliance with me. That is the only condition.”

“I know I can’t control God’s thoughts; I can only try my best to persuade Him.”

Jessica said.

"It's okay, He will definitely agree."

Li En believed that if what Tiger said was true, then the resurrected Dani could only passively stand on the same side as him; otherwise, how could they face the pressure from the gods? If Dani really wanted to be a traitor, then his follower Jessica would not have been able to kill those wise men who had already sided with the stars.

Lee sent Jessica to the exit of the rift.

Jessica looked at Lee En hesitantly.

"Are you really letting me go?"

"if not?"

"Aren't you worried that I might use the Gift to attack the Holy Empire and rebuild the Frankish Empire?"

Jessica countered with a question.

Li En shook his head. "If you were that kind of person, Dani wouldn't have chosen you."

A long-lost smile appeared on Jessica's lips as she suddenly realized that Lee En was indeed handsome and charming.

"If we both believe in the great god Dani, perhaps we can become good friends."

"We are allies now, and there's only one word difference between us and friends."

Li En said.

"Yes, ally, I hope we can stand on the same side again when we meet next time."

Jessica was grateful for Lee's trust and left with the gift that belonged to Dani.

Lee En watched Jessica's retreating figure with a calm expression.

"You just let her go like that, Master? Didn't you leave any backup plan?"

Soraya asked.

"She was able to let go of family hatred, national hatred, and personal grudges, and devoutly pursue the traces of God. She is a true detached person. We don't need to worry about her character. What we really need to worry about is Randall."

Li En said.

"Randall? Isn't he already dead?"

Dorothy looked at Lee En with a puzzled expression.

Li En nodded. "Yes, he is dead, but if we want to resurrect Mohan, we must first resurrect Randall. He must have known this and hid the [Mouth of Bewitching] that belonged to Mohan a long time ago."

"Even without him, we can still find the [Mouth of Bewitching], right?"

Miriam said.

"That's true, but we need to waste too much time, and that's what I lack most right now."

On the surface, Li En still has six months left, while the divine covenant has only been in effect for a year.

But in reality, Lee knew that he couldn't follow the deadline, because that would mean he couldn't make any arrangements or plans and would be completely led by the nose by Tiger.

It is impossible to verify whether Tiger's statement is true or a lie.

The true attitude of the gods towards humanity is unknown.

Even though it has now been verified that some of Tiger's words are true, Lee En cannot completely believe them.

“You want to resurrect Randall? That’s not difficult. We now have the Hand of God. Once resurrected, he will pose no threat to you and will remain loyal to you. However, Mohan is a variable factor.”

Miriam said,
“I have read about Mohan in some ancient books. Mohan, the Lord of Dragons, discriminates against all creatures other than dragons. He believes that dragons are the highest creations and all others are just slaves of dragons, who should be enslaved and dominated.”

"Perhaps we can consider resurrecting Gari first; we possess the [Beating Heart] and the [Divine Mask]."

Dorothy suggested.

Sophie had no opinion on this; she knew very little about these gods anyway.

Li En had many conflicts and contradictions with the Eye of Misfortune. That guy would do anything to be resurrected, but he lost to the fallen angel Abel at the last moment. He might be full of resentment.

Wait, why does Abel only have 17 Gifts here?

Li En remembered that before he fell into a coma, he had already sensed 18 blessed items, one of which, the [Hand of Fortune Stealing], which could steal the other person's fortune for a short period of time, seemed to be missing.

Or rather, it wasn't lost, but taken away by the Eye of Misfortune.

Since the Hand of Fortune was taken away by the Eye of Misfortune, could it be that He still has other gifts hidden away?
Who is the chosen one of the Eye of Doom? Could He have already been resurrected somewhere?

Li En had a flurry of thoughts, but quickly dismissed the idea.

His relationship with the Eye of Misfortune was no less than his relationship with Abel. If Gari were to be resurrected, he might come looking for trouble right away.

"Let's keep going; perhaps some more gifts have been lost in the rift."

Li En said.

"it is good."

The Angel of Life, Dorothy, conjured a water sphere, suspending it above everyone's heads as a light source: "Remember, the lower you go, the less the conventional laws of physics apply. We must maintain a constant mental connection."

"I will be responsible for recording the spatial coordinates. If things get out of control, at least we can find our way back."

Miriam said.

Li En nodded, took a deep breath, and continued to fall downwards into the crack.

The initial descent was relatively smooth.

The rock walls of the crevice were covered with glowing moss and crystal clusters, providing them with ample illumination.

But as the depth increases, the natural light sources gradually disappear, replaced by a faint blue glow that seems to come from the void itself.

Thirty-one floors, thirty-two floors, thirty-three floors...

“We’ve already fallen three thousand meters,” Dorothy’s voice came through the mental link. “The gravitational anomaly is becoming more pronounced.”

Li En could feel that the speed of his descent was no longer uniform; sometimes it was so fast it was suffocating, and sometimes it felt like he was being held up by an invisible force. The surrounding air became viscous, and each breath felt like inhaling liquid darkness.

"Watch out!" Miriam suddenly warned, "There's a spatial fold ahead!"

Before Li En could react, he felt his body being twisted and stretched by an invisible force. In an instant, he saw his arms turn into countless fine threads, then reassemble. The four angels quickly adjusted their positions, forming a protective circle around him.

"It's okay, I can do it myself."

Li En indicated to Sophie and the others that they didn't need to be so nervous, as his divine power was sufficient to repair his body.

The descent continued. Five thousand meters. Seven thousand meters. Nine thousand meters. The environment became increasingly unsuitable for human habitation. The temperature fluctuated wildly, and the air pressure changed drastically. Sometimes, Li En could even see his own breath condense into ice crystals in front of him, only to evaporate into gas the next second.

If he hadn't already possessed a divine status, and wasn't an eight-star knight comparable to a legendary knight, his body would probably have completely disintegrated.

"Master, how are you feeling?"

Soraya asked with concern.

The blood vessels under Li En's skin began to show unusual golden patterns, which was a sign that the divine power in his body was being activated under pressure.

"It's ok."

When the depth gauge showed 12,000 meters, the surrounding scenery completely changed.

The rock face disappeared, replaced by a flowing, translucent medium, like liquid light.

The feeling of falling disappeared, and they now seemed to be suspended in an endless vertical tunnel.

This is the wormhole blueprint that Li En saw in the laboratory. This is the real rift passage created by the humans of the previous civilization, while the passage in front is just a distortion and extension caused by the influence of the Gift and Gift Crystal.

“We’ve entered the wormhole region,” Li En said with awe. “Conventional spatial concepts no longer apply here.”

Although Sophie, Soraya, and Dorothy couldn't understand what a wormhole was, they sensed that it was extremely dangerous.

They felt a wave of dizziness, and when they looked at their hands, they found them sometimes transparent and sometimes solidified, as if existence itself was optional. Even more unsettling, they began to see blurry images—different versions of themselves, on different timelines, making different choices.

"what is this?"

Dorothy asked.

“That’s a projection of a parallel world,” Li En explained. “Wormholes connect countless possibilities. Don’t be misled by them; focus on our goal.”

Parallel worlds? Do other worlds really exist?

Dorothy looked at her reflection and saw the purple-haired little girl nestled in her mother's arms, and her eyes welled up with tears.

"You can't go back, this isn't real."

Miriam reminded.

Suddenly, the entire space trembled violently. A powerful force of attraction came from below, pulling them abruptly deeper. The angels' wings of light traced magnificent paths through the void, struggling to stabilize their descent.

“Lee En!” Dorothy exclaimed, “Your body!”

Li En looked down at himself and found that his limbs were disintegrating into golden particles. Strangely, he did not feel pain, but rather a sense of relief.

"It's okay, don't be nervous."

Li En could sense that this change was not harmful to him because his divine nature would protect him.

Li En closed her eyes and relaxed her whole body.

The decomposition accelerated, and soon his entire body transformed into countless golden specks of light, yet his consciousness remained intact.

The four angels underwent a similar transformation; their physical forms dissolved, turning into pure energy.

In this state, the internal structure of the wormhole becomes clearly visible.

Li En "saw" it as a network structure composed of countless luminous fibers, each fiber representing a branch of time or possibility. And at the center of the network, there was a particularly bright node, which was the source that summoned him.

They moved toward that node.

As the distance shortened, Li En began to receive fragmented memories—countless fragments of his past life on Earth. He saw himself sitting on the sofa watching the World Cup, saw his mother cooking in the kitchen, saw his father walk in with a beer, saw his sister bring her best friend home…

“You’ve finally arrived,” Grand Duke Moria’s voice suddenly rang in Li En’s ears. “I’ve been waiting for you here.”

"grandfather?"

Li En cried out, and before his eyes appeared a cloud of golden dust, which gradually formed the phantom of Grand Duke Moria.

Li En's body also transformed into a golden phantom, and the two shadows gradually approached each other and embraced.

"I gave up my body and left my consciousness here, just to wait for you."

Grand Duke Moria said.

"Grandpa, why are you waiting for me here?"

Lee En asked.

"My child, I want to tell you, don't go any further. Go back to your world, go back to your life."

Grand Duke Moria gently stroked Li En's hair, like a loving grandfather.

“You have seen the truth of the world and are worried that I will not be able to accept it, so you want to persuade me to go back.”

Li En said.

Grand Duke Moria paused for a moment, then said, “Yes, child, if you must know, try to defeat me.”

As soon as he finished speaking, his body transformed into a barrier, attempting to stop Li En from moving forward.

Li En frowned slightly. "Grandpa, you can't protect me forever. I have a mission I must fulfill now."

He stretched out his hand, and the barrier that Grand Duke Moria had transformed into was directly blown away.

Countless golden grains scattered, like dazzling fireworks.

"Child, I hope you won't regret it."

Grand Duke Moriah's voice gradually faded away.

Li En took a deep breath. He was determined to go to the end of the crack and see for himself, even if he ended up seeing his own body lying in a test tube full of nutrient solution. He had to see it with his own eyes.

The five energy bodies continued to descend, and here the concepts of time and space had ceased to exist.

They didn't know how long they had been floating when they saw the gate constructed of blessed crystal.

After passing through the gate, Li En, Sophie, Dorothy, Miriam, and Sophia arrived at a laboratory.

"This is the Old World?"

Dorothy asked in surprise.

The furnishings in the laboratory are very similar to those found in the Greenwood Palace, but this one does not seem to have been ravaged by time.

Pushing open the doors of the laboratories, you can see hibernation pods lying inside.

"what is this?"

Soraya, Dorothy, and Sophie looked at the metal boxes with curiosity.

There are people inside.

Li En saw himself lying in the hibernation pod.

"It's me."

To Li En's surprise, he discovered that he wasn't the only one who had been chosen; countless people he knew were also lying in the hibernation pods.

This also includes Sophie, Dorothy, Jessica, Miriam, Parker, Grand Duke Moria...

But he was certain that in his world, he was the only time traveler.

Therefore, these chosen individuals may exist in countless parallel worlds.

In an attempt to save himself, Tiger chose different souls from different times and spaces, but in the end, he was the only one who made it this far.

The Grand Duke Moria, whom I just met, might be my grandfather from another time and space.
