Infinite Gods Reign Supreme

Chapter 113 What does it mean that there might be more than one Main God Space?
"God, your entire body is fully restored."

It was Si Ming who spoke, because he had never relaxed.

It wasn't until the healing beam descended from the main god's sphere that his companions reacted immediately, leaping from their seats and scanning their surroundings while shouting.

"what happened!?"

"Have we been attacked?"

"This is the Main God Space... Where are the enemies?"

"Mr. Si Ming! Are you alright?"

Light seeped into Siming's body. Bathed in a warm, soothing sensation, he checked his remaining reincarnation points—he still had 1C2D side quest reserves, and 12,000 reward points remaining. Soon, his broken limbs were filled, and his energy was restored. Even his temporarily disabled Night Demon Armor was reactivated, and the resources and points required weren't too many.

—【The case has been cured, and 377 reward points have been paid. Reincarnator Si Ming currently has 11807 reward points.】

The consumption is not large.

The damage is mostly physical, and the genetic structure has not been compromised.

As her toes touched the ground, it was almost Liesel, who had arrived first, who rushed forward. The others looked warily in all directions. Yu Zhiwei, on the other hand, not only didn't change her posture, but actually looked even more languid.

"Something's up?" Jacob held the Discipline Tablet in his hands, which shimmered with pure white light. "You just..."

"He must have just gone back to the Curse or the Dragon War," Yu Zhiwei said casually, playing with her nails. "Judging from his expression, he must have had a lot of fun. I knew this guy had a restless spirit; sooner or later he wouldn't be able to resist going back to fight powerful enemies... wait!"

She suddenly straightened up.

Her figure appeared directly in front of Si Ming in a flash of shadow. The distance was close enough for her to observe and perceive everything thoroughly, and through that, she discovered a truth.

"You... no! There's no time delay in returning to the old world! I have no record of you appearing in the plaza! When did you initiate the teleportation? Where did you go?"

She found out.

Si Ming glanced at the spoils he had brought back with him, his gaze sweeping over the remaining half of the yellow dragon's shell. He clenched his fist slightly, sensing the state and energy within his body. And everything was indeed as he had expected.

The gene lock remained at the initial stage of the third tier. Despite the battle being ten times more severe and brutal than any of the previous battles in the reincarnation world, the gene lock showed no growth whatsoever. On the contrary, the Night Battle Qi of the Seven Stars of the Battle King within the body, due to continuous mobilization and circulation, became slightly more active than before, increasing by a negligible amount.

—That place doesn't seem to support the growth of genetic locks.

“I went back to the Source World.” Si Mingchao, Yu Zhiwei, and their other companions nodded and answered calmly. “I went back to my hometown.”

"Homeland...the real world!?"

Luo Yinglong, who likely has a happy family and both parents alive, is the one who reacted the most.

"Wait, wait! Wait a minute!" He jumped out, looking at Si Ming anxiously. "You mean, in the real world, someone...something could beat you up like that!?"

Maybe there is.

If the 'real world' truly is the one from the first generation, then it does indeed contain terrifying and unimaginable powers—Eastern assassin families capable of mass-producing basic Tier 4 assassins can only cautiously hide and dare not make any moves. Furthermore, superhumans with innate telekinesis or death perception abilities are constantly emerging across the world. The inheritance of powers such as internal energy and Gu techniques also spreads throughout the land.

“Don’t be nervous,” Si Ming explained. “The source world I went to might not be the same as the real world you’re talking about. I went to a different world where the sky is obscured by golden trees, and powerful beings and monsters abound. Not…”

"What!" Luo Yinglong shouted even louder. "Has the real world become like this?! No! I have to go! Everyone, wait for me, I'm off—"

Si Ming wanted to stop him.

But I don't think it's necessary.

Those who prioritize the real world in their reincarnation would have already paid for the D-level side quest to unlock the world. Given the relatively substantial rewards from their actions, wasting a few hundred or a thousand points wouldn't be a problem.

He disappeared.

He disappeared for a full second, perfectly in accordance with the main god's procedure. And a second later, Luo Yinglong, who had been panicked and tense just a moment ago, reappeared leisurely and satisfied. When he first appeared, his gaze towards everyone was still somewhat surprised.

"Everyone's here... Ah, sorry, sorry. We got a little carried away and forgot a bit, haha... What was I saying just now, uh, what was the captain saying again? A hometown where golden trees shade the sky?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Yu Zhiwei had returned to her seat at some point and even crossed her legs.

Almaria suddenly chuckled. Song Tian also released his grip on the knife handle. Valentina, who seemed to have barely reacted from beginning to end, blinked.

"Uh... so, what exactly happened?" She looked expectantly at Si Ming, then at Luo Yinglong. "Why did the captain suddenly come back in such a sorry state? And Luo Yinglong, you rushed back to the real world again... wait, did something strange happen in the real world?"

Siming raised his hand and sighed. This stopped Valentina's visibly growing impatience, which had only just begun to surface. It seemed she also had a happy family. However, based on Siming's understanding of her, she might not have yet paid the cost of activating the real world…

"Alright, I'll explain." Si Ming reassured everyone, "I remember telling everyone a long time ago that I had self-comprehended a power I called 'Battle Qi' a long time ago. And now, I want to add something extra. That is, the time when I comprehended this power was even earlier than when I arrived in the Reincarnation World."

He paused.

“That’s right. I’m different from others. Before I came to the world of reincarnation, I must have first traveled to a rather dangerous fantasy world.”

..............................

Time flows on...

Explanation of consumption...

“So…” Valentina stroked her chin seriously. “Captain, you first traveled to a fantasy world called the ‘Borderlands,’ and then were suddenly and inexplicably pulled into the cycle of reincarnation. So when you chose to return, you didn’t arrive in reality, but in that fantasy world. And there, the main god experienced some strange malfunctions?”

"Not only did you fail to return on time, but you also received a strange main quest. Furthermore, the Supreme God assigned you something called Apostle Certification, which he referred to as a conquest commission. After activating this quest, you experienced a feeling of being surrounded by enemies, which is why you're in such a sorry state. And this feeling is something you've never experienced before before coming to the Supreme God's space?"

“That’s roughly it.” Si Ming sat down in his seat. From beginning to end, the God of War hadn’t stopped him from revealing information about his experiences in the Source World. “I don’t know why the God of War called it a ‘conquest commission.’ And I didn’t feel any changes in myself after the ‘Apostle Certification.’ So, based on that, I think there are two possibilities behind the truth.”

He raised his finger.

"First, my experience was actually a 'special captain certification' for our Celestial Team. It's like how our former guides tested us and then made us captains. I received extra treatment because of my performance. And the true captains of the Celestial Team have the title of 'Apostle' in the eyes of the Supreme God."

“That’s actually quite likely,” Jacob, who was well-versed in mythology, nodded and added. “Apostle is… a word with considerable religious significance. It comes from the Greek word Apostolos, meaning one who is sent. However, in reality, only messengers directly guided by ‘God’ can receive the title of apostle.”

God exists in the cycle of reincarnation. The Supreme God, this great sphere of light, is undoubtedly the most divine 'God'.

“Yes,” Si Ming replied. “However, there is another possibility. That is, the ‘reincarnation world’ is not actually unique. There are other ‘main gods’ besides the ‘main god’. The evidence is my progress in unlocking my gene lock. In my source world… I had a rather colorful experience. But I never touched the gene lock there. However, after I came to the main god space and unlocked my gene lock, I only experienced one not-so-difficult battle.”

“Hmm…” Yu Zhiwei suddenly raised her eyebrows. “Now that you mention it, I do have that feeling too. It seems that unlocking the gene lock is quite easy in the reincarnation world… I’ve seen people in the Indian team unlock their gene locks more than once during life-or-death crises. And everyone else is probably the same.”

Almaria and Jacob nodded first; both had experience in team battles. Originally, the team had a sufficient number of lockpickers. However, things previously unnoticed became acutely apparent after the connection to reality. The crises experienced by regular reincarnators were insignificant compared to the war-torn regions of reality. So…

Why is the real world still so peaceful and ordinary, and why have we never even heard of anyone unlocking their genetic potential?
“In the real world, there are actually people who have unlocked their genetic potential,” Song Tian suddenly said in a deep voice. “In the underworld, there have been some ethereal legends. Some legendary figures who have survived countless life-or-death crises will become extraordinary after a sudden enlightenment.”

“It’s very difficult.” Si Ming nodded. “But for us Reincarnators, unlocking our genetic locks is obviously much easier. Therefore, I suspect that the ‘easy-to-unlock physique’ is a characteristic of the worlds within the influence of the Main God, as well as of the Reincarnators. And the other world I was in before, with its golden trees, was not within the Main God’s normal influence.”

"Therefore, I suspect that it should be the sphere of influence of 'another main god.' And that 'other main god' calls its reincarnators apostles. I don't know what happened between the main god and the initiator of that 'conquest commission.' But I can at least confirm that our Celestial Team's current combat strength is stronger than all other teams in the reincarnation world."

“And the main gods nurture us, always to send us into battle.” Yu Zhiwei tilted her head, revealing a rather exaggerated, even distorted, smile. “Different ‘main gods,’ different ‘reincarnation worlds.’ It seems the time for playing house is over.”

No one answered.

The sphere of light above the plaza remained motionless.

A certain somber atmosphere, however, silently surged from the circle of tables around the Celestial Team.
