Chapter 437 Permissions
The light and shadow distorted, the torn cosmic backdrop instantly erased, replaced by a cold, hard, metallic ground radiating a soft white light. Lost
"vomit……"

The tyrant was the first to give in, bending over and retching violently, leaving the helmet of his spacesuit a mess.

Zheng Zha collapsed to the ground, staring blankly at the enormous ball of light above his head.

After a moment of deathly silence, the suppressed emotions erupted like a volcano.

"We survived! We fucking survived!"

Zheng Zha took off his helmet, tears streaming down his face, and let out a wild, joyful roar mixed with sobs.

That roar was like a switch, igniting the fervor of everyone who had survived the ordeal.

After facing an incomprehensible ultimate catastrophe like Hellstar, any words seem pale; only these most primal physical actions and shouts can prove that they are still truly "alive."

Amidst the clamor and ecstasy, only Zhang Qi stood quietly, contemplating something else.

[Smash Hell Star to receive an S-rank side quest and 12000 reward points.]

[Successfully redeemed the plane, obtained one F-level authority, 10000 reward points, and one A-level side quest.]

This was a hint from the returning Supreme God. While the S-rank side quest and the high reward points were certainly valuable, what truly captivated his attention was that unfamiliar word.

F-level permissions.

He closed his eyes, blocking out the excited shouts of his teammates outside, and his consciousness sank into the main god.

Beyond the usual light screen representing attributes, skills, lineage, and equipment, a brand new label, emitting a dark glow, floats silently.

【Permissions】

Zhang Qi's thoughts touched upon it.

The next moment, the function of the permissions was clearly displayed before his eyes.

[Privilege Level: F. (Privileges are divided into ten levels: F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS, and 3S. Ten privilege tokens of the same level can be exchanged for one higher-level privilege.)]

[F-level permissions can be used for the following purposes:]

【One: Cancel team battle attributes for the next reincarnation world. This permission will be lost after use.】

[Second: Forcefully activates team battle attributes for the next reincarnation world, and allows you to designate a previously encountered reincarnation team as your opponent. This permission will be lost after use.]

[Three: Redeem one 'Return to the Real World' slot. After designating a user, that member will leave the reincarnation team and return to their original world. This privilege will be lost after use.]

[Four: Select the plane background for the next reincarnation world. The user can specify a known plane. The main god will judge based on the plane's strength. If it matches the current team's strength rating, the selection will be successful. This permission will be lost after use.]

[Five: Within the cycle of reincarnation, activate 'Emergency Escape'. Limited to one user. The user will immediately return to the Main God Space, and the penalty for mission failure in this cycle of reincarnation and all negative points will be waived. This privilege will expire after use.]

[Six: Intelligence Inquiry. Each F-level permission allows one limited inquiry to the Main God before the start of each reincarnation world. Inquiry options include: the precise entry time of the next reincarnation world, the specific mission content of that reincarnation world, the trigger condition for a hidden side quest, the location of a high-value hidden item, and specific information about a high-reward enemy. This function does not consume permission itself, but can only be used once per reincarnation world.]

Zhang Qi read it word by word, his expression beginning to turn strange.

This is not a simple reward; it touches upon the underlying rules governing the operation of the God Realm.

In other words, this is administrator privileges within the main divine space...

Despite being only the lowest F-rank, its very existence overturned all their understanding of the Main God Space. Its value, in certain specific circumstances, far surpasses that of S-rank side quests.

The reason for obtaining this permission...

[Redemption of the plane successful].

Zhang Qi's thoughts began to race, as he re-examined and deconstructed all the details of this mission in his mind.

The word "redemption" carries a heavy meaning.

How does God define "redemption"?

First, he defeated Hellstar. That living celestial body that feeds on planets was essentially a cosmic catastrophe.

It does not only threaten Earth; according to its predatory pattern, it will slowly and steadily devour all matter and energy in that universe until the entire universe returns to heat death.

From this perspective, destroying it is equivalent to saving the entire universe containing that dimension.

But is that enough?
Zhang Qi thought of something else: the "soul-arming" technology he left behind in that world.

This technology is derived from the Zanpakuto of the Bleach world and draws on the soul materialization technology of the magical girl world.

It gave ordinary people in that world the power to fight against cursed spirits, fundamentally changing the powerlessness of humanity when facing aggregates of negative emotions.

In other words, he not only resolved the imminent doomsday crisis, but also left behind a seed for the continued development of that civilization, enabling it to sustain itself.

To prevent utter destruction while simultaneously giving a civilization the strength to continue.

The combination of these two factors constitutes "redemption" in the judgment of the Supreme God.

But the most crucial question is...

why?
Why would the Supreme Deity reward this behavior?

In all past experiences, the image of the Supreme God has been that of a cold, ruthless, chaotic, and neutral being.

It throws humans from various worlds into a meat grinder-like horror movie world, with the sole purpose of selecting the strongest individuals and watching them struggle and evolve in despair and death.

It's like a cold-blooded gladiatorial arena owner, enjoying the bloody entertainment and reaping some unknown "benefits" from it.

Why would such an entity reward the act of "redemption"?
Why then are they granted this privilege of being reincarnators?

He could think of two possibilities...

The first possibility: the "value" of the dimensional world.

Perhaps, for the God Realm, these reincarnation worlds are not disposable consumables that can be discarded at will, but rather "assets" with continuous value.

It's like a farmer and his ranch.

The main god throws the reincarnators into these "pastures" in order to harvest something.

This thing could be spiritual power, the origin of the world, or some kind of information collection... Whatever it is, a world that has been completely destroyed and where nothing exists is like a pasture that has been burned to the ground; its value will instantly become zero.

From this perspective, Hellstar's actions are tantamount to uprooting and completely destroying the entire ranch of the Supreme God.

He stopped it himself, thus preserving the integrity of this "asset".

Therefore, the Supreme God granted himself a portion of "management" authority as a reward.

This is a benefit-based incentive mechanism that encourages reincarnators to maintain the existence of these dimensional worlds as much as possible while completing their tasks.

This hypothesis can explain the motivation of the supreme deity, but there are still some parts that don't make sense.

If it were merely to preserve assets, the Supreme God could easily wipe out Hellstar himself; it would be a matter of a mere blink of an eye for him.

Why use the hand of a fake reincarnator?
Thus, a second possibility emerged.

The Main God Space itself does not have the ability to directly interfere with the cycle of reincarnation.

He can only indirectly influence that world through certain means, such as involving reincarnators and issuing missions.

Zhang Qi slowly opened his eyes and looked at the great sphere of light of the main god.

This is getting more and more interesting...
