Infinite Reincarnation: Survival Begins from Ishimura

After Mu Xing emerged from the shattered city of R'lyeh, his mood became delightful.

Firstly, although the city of R'lyeh was broken, it still contained immense power.

This sacred city, which in its prime could rival the city of Terra, could provide Mu Xing with significant assistance even in its decline.

Of course, there was a price to pay; the various buildings of the sacred city were damaged, and he needed to collect materials to repair them himself.

Once he successfully repaired the buildings in the city, he could use the special functions within them.

Though called a city, it was more like Cthulhu's laboratory.

Full of various functions, it was dazzling.

Secondly, once he repaired more than 50% of R'lyeh, he would officially gain the inheritance rights to the city.

He would transform from a temporary inheritor to a formal one.

When the repair exceeded 80%, he would become the true lord of R'lyeh.

Even if Cthulhu were to revive at that time, the city would still be his.

Finally, Mu Xing gained an advantage in his banter with the Cthulhu larva incubated within the green embryo, successfully tricking it into believing his words.

He just wondered if the legendary Lord of R'lyeh, the master of dreams, the great Cthulhu, would personally send him to the sacrificial pyre after his complete resurrection?

Mu Xing scratched his nose, thinking that future matters could be dealt with later, just like the Wraith, who had gradually accepted his position as his 'Hakimi'.

...

After emerging from the dungeon, Mu Xing did not rush to leave.

He found Queen Annalise and Executioner Logarius in the city.

In the desolate and ruined city, only dark bloodstains remained after the sacrificial ritual.

Beneath the withered castle, the white snow was stained red with blood.

Annalise sat silently on the steps.

Lying in her arms was Logarius, whose life was coming to an end.

This executioner, who single-handedly thwarted the Healing Church and personally sealed the Queen, now lacked the strength even to stand.

In the ritual just now, Mu Xing awakened them, and they made their own decision, forcibly stopping the sacrifice.

Although the sacrifice was stopped, someone had to pay the price.

Logarius made his choice; he used his life to exchange for Annalise's rebirth.

At this moment, Annalise wore a long dress stained red with blood, and the cold wind blew through her black hair.

Lying in her arms, Logarius's body was as withered as a weed.

At this moment, all kinds of grievances turned into smoke.

Seemingly sensing Mu Xing's approach, Logarius, on the verge of death, slowly turned his head.

His bones made a cracking sound.

He struggled to make a sound from his dry throat: "Is it all over?"

"It's over!" Mu Xing's expression was complicated, unable to evaluate the actions of this "commoner hero."

"Then, the deal between you and me?"

"Don't worry, I can keep my promise, but are you sure it's worth it?"

"You should know that it's never the Outer Gods that are destroyed, but the desires in their hearts."

"Even if you bring them back from the past, one day, they will still embark on the same path."

Hearing this, Logarius slowly turned his head to look at the sky.

He watched the white snow falling, fluttering, and the cold snowflakes fell on his dry, temperatureless face, showing no sign of melting.

"Yes, you're right, blood, Outer Gods, are just the fuse for corruption."

He stretched out his hand, catching the snowflakes falling from the sky, seemingly trying to grasp something.

"Annalise, be yourself, be a wanderer, not a submissive queen."

Hearing Logarius's words, hot tears streamed from Annalise's eyes.

The hot tears fell on Logarius's face, finally melting the crystal snowflakes.

In the wind and snow, their bodies gradually solidified, turning into dry statues.

Mu Xing opened his mouth.

He waved his right hand, and Maria appeared beside him.

Maria, who had been watching this scene from the tower, witnessed everything.

She just stood quietly in front of the two dry "statues," not speaking for a long time.

"Sorry, I used them, maybe they didn't have to die."

Mu Xing's voice sounded behind her.

Maria shook her head: "I didn't believe in fate before, but now I do, I respect their choices."

"Maybe she's not disappointed in this world, she's just tired."

Maria walked to Annalise's statue and took out a delicate box.

The box was gently opened, inside was a beautiful violet brooch.

"She used to love violets the most, she said it was a symbol of loyalty, faith, and freedom."

"But over the years, she has practiced her loyalty, dedicated her faith, but never left herself freedom."

She gently placed the brooch in Annalise's hand, then took two steps back and returned to Mu Xing's side.

The entire dream space suddenly trembled, and time and space became extremely unstable.

"This place is about to disappear, let's go, there is a longer road waiting for you in the future."

Mu Xing said.

With the fall of the Lord of R'lyeh, the dream beyond world supplied by the power of the 'God' naturally began to collapse.

Maria nodded gently, and as she retreated, her body turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the seventh floor of the tower.

At the same time,

Mu Xing noticed that the eighth floor of the Observer's Tower was gradually becoming solid.

The Rom, the Vacuous Spider, replaced by the Survival System, not only did not disappear, but seemed to have become even more powerful.

He stared at the spider, feeling a headache: "What layout is this old scoundrel of the Survival System up to? Is he digging another big pit for me again?"

Fortunately, he was used to it, meeting soldiers with generals, and water with earth.

Before that, he would squeeze out its value first.

With a grab of his right hand, a black teleportation stone appeared in his hand.

After crushing it, it directly unfolded into a rotating chaotic portal.

Taking another look at the dilapidated castle, the two statues standing in the falling snow, he took a step back and disappeared into the portal.

The next second, the dream rippled, the world shrank, and completely turned into nothingness.

...

Mu Xing reappeared, directly teleporting out of the anomaly point represented by Bloodborne.

The surrounding area was unprecedentedly bright.

Although it was a level three contaminated area, it was as bright as day here.

Looking up, he saw the bright sun overhead, casting a warm light on this land that had never seen sunlight.

On the dark earth, there seemed to be sprouts budding, and life reappeared on this land corroded by chaos.

"Captain!"

He didn't know if it was a hallucination.

Mu Xing subconsciously looked up, and then saw Caesar and the others waving vigorously at him.

Ye Changfeng had a smile on his face, gently stroking his long beard.

Man Shan carried an axe, grinning, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

Madman and Ye Wei were holding hands, running towards this side.

Not only them, but also the other people in the team were running towards him with cheerful steps.

However, at this moment,

A figure took the lead and stood in front of Mu Xing.

"What are you going to do again? My General Yuan?"

Mu Xing looked at Yuan, who was smiling at him with his arms folded, and felt a little hairy in his heart, subconsciously taking half a step back.
