Infinite Reincarnation: Survival Begins from Ishimura

As the carriage rolled over the rune-covered bronze tiles, Mu Xing had quietly extracted key memories from the Lizardman's skull.

The Chaos's plan had begun weeks ago, with the construction of a massive altar here.

The goal was to use the Chaos freaks cultivated from the Kos's replica to communicate with the Lord of R'lyeh, who was sealed within the Holy City.

Chaos intended to use its own method to erode and control that incomparably powerful Outer God sleeping in endless dreams.

Now the plan was nearing completion. The altar had been built, and the Chaos freak cultivation was complete.

The Chaos freaks Mu Xing and his team delivered were the final batch.

"Looks like we've arrived just in time!"

Mu Xing gazed at the brightly lit underground city ahead, a cold glint in his eyes.

As they passed through the city gate into the underground city, the Lizardman researcher approached with a fawning expression.

"Envoy, brothers have been working day and night to complete the orders from above, dedicating themselves to the great cause. You see..."

Mu Xing waved his hand, knowing this guy was trying to take credit.

"Don't worry, as long as the ritual goes smoothly, I will ask the higher-ups to reward you. But what's with these humans?"

In the Chaos miasma-filled passage, the porters chained up were clearly remnants of the Blood Clan.

The Chaos sigils branded on their necks were devouring their last vestiges of sanity.

These were all former residents of the underground city, now controlled by the occupiers and turned into cargo-carrying laborers.

As Mu Xing pointed to the line of laborers, the Lizardman's scales shimmered with a fawning glow:

"Just some inferior experimental materials. It's their honor to become nourishment for Chaos."

"Rewards will not be lacking."

Mu Xing suddenly held Maria's trembling wrist, her silver hair under the hood shimmering with anger.

Among the enslaved Blood Clan members, there were clearly former acquaintances bearing the Cainhurst badge.

Mu Xing held her wrist: "Calm down."

"Don't worry, I know."

As expected of Maria, she quickly adjusted her emotions in a very short time.

The Lizardman saw Maria in the hood next to Mu Xing and didn't suspect anything. After all, these envoys had some strange hobbies.

Keeping a Blood Clan member as a pet was not uncommon.

"Envoy, once this batch of embryos is delivered, the sacrifice can begin. If you have any requests, you can directly order your subordinate."

With that, he turned and continued to lead the way.

Mu Xing sensed the situation in the underground city. In the center of the vast underground city, all buildings had been demolished and a huge circular altar had been built.

A large number of ordinary Chaos Wizards were carrying out preparations.

At the same time, he estimated the number of Chaos forces in the underground city. If he made a move, could he take it all down in one fell swoop?

Moreover, he always felt that things were not that simple.

This place was strange in every way.

The empty Bloodborne world, the reappearance of Cainhurst Castle from past festivals, and the already dead survivors...

These strange phenomena were intertwined, and even as an observer, capable of penetrating the mysteries of time and space, he could not fathom the truth hidden behind the mist.

At this moment, the situation on the Nightmare Battlefield was like a tightly stretched string, in a stalemate, and any slight change could trigger a global shock.

Since stepping into the anomaly, he had been walking on thin ice, every step cautious, fearing that any slight mistake would plunge the entire battle situation into eternal damnation.

When making decisions, this caution gradually evolved into being overly careful, even somewhat timid.

"What are you worried about?"

Maria's voice rang softly in his ear.

"Everything here is strange, and I'm afraid that one wrong step will plunge us into an endless abyss."

He frowned slightly, his eyes full of worry.

"My personal safety is insignificant, but I still have teammates fighting alongside me, and countless resisters holding the line in the rear. Once a person has attachments, they have weaknesses."

Maria gently shook her head, her gaze gentle and firm:

"Although I haven't known you for long and don't know you very well, I know you are a trustworthy person."

"You always try to bear all the problems on your own, but one person's strength is ultimately limited, and energy is not endless. Sometimes, you might as well try to trust the people around you. They are not just burdens that will drag you down, but reliable partners fighting alongside you."

Hearing this, Mu Xing couldn't help but look at Maria in surprise. He was about to speak when she preempted him.

"Don't look at me like that. I used to be a lot like you, always thinking I could handle everything on my own. But reality gave me a heavy blow."

"If it weren't for you, I might still be feeling sorry for myself and living aimlessly on the Astral Clocktower."

She looked directly into Mu Xing's eyes, her eyes full of encouragement: "Let go and do it! What if the road ahead is full of thorns? Grip the sharp blade in your hand and cut a bloody path!"

Mu Xing took a deep breath, and the haze in his heart gradually dissipated:

"Perhaps you are right, I am overthinking it. There is no risk-free plan in this world. We cannot lose the courage to start just because the ending is unknown."

When he raised his head again, he took the lead in contacting his teammates in the upper castle.

He recounted all his discoveries underground, pouring out his inner concerns and thoughts.

"Captain, I think you shouldn't get hung up on these things, just do it," Caesar said.

"That's right, here, Chaos can't monopolize power and act recklessly. Even if it tries to cover the sky with one hand, we can poke a hole in it," Zhu Qingyu echoed.

"Captain, I support you!" Madman's voice followed closely.

Hearing the encouragement from his teammates, Mu Xing finally made up his mind: "In that case, here's the plan."

"Chaos must have a hidden conspiracy in summoning these Cainhurst people from the past to this place."

"Madman, Sister Ye, and Yun Li, you are responsible for resolving the Chaos patrols around the festival and clearing the outer guards."

"Zhu Qingyu, Caesar, you are responsible for dealing with the enemies inside the castle. If you have a chance, prioritize finding the Blood Queen."

"Blood Queen? Captain, do you suspect that the Blood Queen is involved in Chaos's plan?"

"It's just a guess, but we can't be unprepared. Your mission is clear: do everything possible to disrupt the festival."

"At the same time, I will find a way to disrupt the sacrificial ritual in the underground city."

"We will use the festival bell as a signal to officially launch the operation."

With an order from Mu Xing, everyone immediately took action.

Taking advantage of the fact that the convoy had not yet reached the inner city, he quickly replaced all the embryos in the large carriage boxes.

The replacements looked exactly like the originals, but in reality, they were just empty shells exuding Chaos aura.

After completing all of this, he called over the Lizardman researcher who had been leading the way.

"Envoy, what are your orders?"

"Send these embryos over and notify them to prepare to start the ritual. Also, gather everyone together and say that I want to convey new instructions from above."

"Understood, understood!"

The Lizardman researcher did not dare to have any doubts and hurriedly ran off to gather the personnel.

Mu Xing looked at the Chaos puppets next to him. They were like special mutated corpses, also possessing the ability to devour and aggregate.

Under Mu Xing's command, these puppets scattered, and they had only one goal, which was to weaken the Chaos defenses in the underground city as much as possible.

Just then,

Meng Yu, who had been silent in the carriage, suddenly raised his head: "I remember now, Captain Han Zhou led us to secretly sneak into the underground city from here back then."

Mu Xing suddenly turned his head: "And then?"
