Those who reincarnate must die.

Chapter 479 Righteousness

Three hours later, the nine-story underground palace collapsed...

As the portals in the plaza disappeared one by one, the reincarnators knew that this world had come to an end...

Because it involves matters related to redeeming rewards, the altar is giving the reincarnators ample time to leave; they can stay for a maximum of two more hours. (Google search for more information)

At this moment, Zhang Lang had already delivered the crown of the Goddess of Radiance to the exchange point, received the sufficient reward, and deposited it into his account.

As for the handful of unidentified purple wildflowers, he wove them into a crown and placed it on the head of the deceased goddess of light, which, along with this thousand-year-old prisoner, collapsed into the deepest part of the nine-layered underground palace.

After finishing all this, Zhang Lang retrieved his stored equipment from Le Xinyi and Lei Ting, checked to make sure nothing was missing, then briefly said goodbye to everyone and left...

With two hours left, he might still be able to find some ways to make money in the City of Radiance and earn some extra cash. But Zhang Lang didn't. He had already earned enough this time, and he was a little tired...

At the moment he killed the Goddess of Radiance, he suddenly had a feeling. Even if this woman left the Nine-Layered Palace, she might not necessarily destroy the City of Radiance... Even after being imprisoned for a thousand years, she still loved this land, and she still loved this world...

Even so, she remains a huge destabilizing factor for the altar!

What the altar needs is for the numerous parallel worlds dominated by the Shen clan to develop stably and peacefully, even if behind this peace lie many cruel realities...

In Zhang Lang's view, this was perfectly understandable. If this place were his hometown, and the Goddess of Radiance were replaced by a superhuman who threatened world peace and might destroy humanity, then as one of the masses, Zhang Lang would probably also wish for his death...

But when he personally carried out the killing, the feeling was different...

What did the Goddess of Light do wrong? Why did she have to die? And who has the right to judge her?

Conversely, Zhang Lang thought of all the reincarnators who had died at his hands before…

At the time, unaware of the truth, I, under the instigation of the Void, killed many reincarnators. Among these people, there might truly be some who deserved to die... such as Jason Gate and others who spread the virus in the world back then. It could even be said that most reincarnators from the main world did not value the peace and human lives of the mission world, and had done some cruel things.

But among so many people, are there really no innocent people?

Zhang Lang was certain there were, and quite a few, as his own hands were already stained with the blood of injustice!

That was because he lacked sufficient understanding and judgment at the time… Later, he learned the truth about the Reincarnators and the altar, as well as the twelve universes above the altar, the predicament of the Shen clan, and that the one who destroyed his homeland was a hero of the Chen clan…

So now he begins to follow the altar's instructions, taking risks...

But what if, by any chance, one day he learns a deeper truth, that what the altar is asking him to do is also wrong... or to put it more extremely, that his homeland deserves to die, deserves to be destroyed, and that if it is not destroyed, it will only cause a greater disaster? What should he do then?

Should we stand on the objective and rational perspective and support this inhumane act of destruction, or should we stand on the human perspective and fight to the end, even at the cost of causing more casualties?

Sacrificing one person to save the world can be a righteous act...

What about destroying one world to save countless others?

What if we sacrifice one Shen race's universe to save the universes of the other eleven races?

…………

Zhang Lang suddenly realized that his lofty ideal of saving his hometown was so insignificant in the face of countless parallel worlds... He discovered that everyone was unable to think or judge from their own perspective... Right and wrong, truth and falsehood, did not seem to be such unbreakable truths, and the beliefs he held onto could not be correct forever!

But so what?

Back at the altar, gazing at the raging flames and watching the constantly flickering images, Zhang Lang suddenly smiled.

He had always felt wronged, angry, hateful, and resentful about the destruction of his hometown... He also felt guilty and regretful about the innocent reincarnators he had accidentally killed.

But now, he suddenly understands.

Since I lack the ability and the qualification to judge right and wrong from an absolutely objective perspective, let's return to our own standpoint!

He doesn't stand on the so-called altar, the Shen clan, or even the universe; he only represents himself and Zhang Lang to make judgments and do what he wants to do as Zhang Lang!

He wanted to resurrect his sister; he wanted to save his homeland!

Not for any grand principles or moral considerations, but simply because he wanted to touch Xiaoya's cheek again; wanted to see the smoke rising from the chimneys of Anning Town again; wanted to hear the roar of machinery from the factories on the outskirts of town again... That's all!

As he calmed his mind, the long-flickering replay of the images finally stopped, and Zhang Lang's score for this adventure was revealed.

Gold Coin Exchange Score: 102344 points

Bounty points earned: 5960

Total score for this task: 108304 points

Current total score: 108734 points

In short: You made history!

…………

Although he was mentally prepared, Zhang Lang was still quite excited when he saw the final score!

108,000 points! You can draw 108 prizes of 1,000 points each!

You should know that having ten thousand-point rewards is enough to meet one of the major conditions for advancing to hero rank, so one hundred and eight?

Among the Hero-level characters, there are probably very few who have accumulated so many rewards... It seems that the final line, "You made history," is truly well-deserved!

"Hahahaha..." Before Zhang Lang could even figure out how to draw the rewards, Xu's arrogant laughter echoed in his mind: "I dare say, since the altar appeared, no one has ever gotten such a high score in a single mission! You've really struck it rich! You've soared to the top, hahahaha!"

"What about over there?" Zhang Lang interrupted his feigned excited laughter. "Those wanted criminals I killed, their heads weren't cheap either!"

"Don't worry about me for now!" Xu said. "Over a hundred rewards, aren't you afraid you won't be able to draw them all in half an hour? Hurry up!"

Zhang Lang thought it made sense and was about to draw a reward when suddenly, he noticed a notification flashing on the light screen in the center of the altar:

"Congratulations on becoming the first Reincarnator to earn over 100,000 points in a single mission during the Sacrifice phase. You have been granted an opportunity to redeem an unprecedented reward of a specified category for 10,000 points. Would you like a redemption code?"

Below this sentence, there are two options: "Yes" and "No".
