After Xie Bai wreaked havoc in the void, the world's current level limit has reached 248.

Under the level 248 world restriction, even if the truly top-tier true gods cannot awaken, it is enough to support the appearance of some less powerful true gods.

……

Charon, the God of Thieves, lv.247

Charon awoke on a hill, blinking repeatedly, seemingly unaware of his current situation.

After a long while, he got up from the ground and examined his body.

"I'm alive?"

He looked at his arm in disbelief, repeatedly confirming that he had indeed survived that dark catastrophe.

Feeling the power of stolen authority still flowing through him, Charon finally awoke from his dream.

"I actually survived?!"

Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his head.

"Hiss... Strange, I feel like I'm having a nightmare, dreaming that I'm being killed repeatedly by the same enemy during the Golden Age..."

As for who was so heartless and relentlessly pursued and killed him, Charon couldn't quite remember.

I can only vaguely remember that the other person had long white hair, was very short, and very thin. It seemed like they were holding some kind of scary artifact.

Caron clearly remembered that he had never met such a person before.

"Oh well, it's just a dream after all. Why should I dwell on it?"

Charon shook his hand, quickly putting the question out of his mind.

Rather than dwelling on these things, his most important task right now is to first ascertain the current level of risk in the world.

With a slight thought, a gray-black ring-shaped magical artifact appeared in his palm.

The Heart of the Timid

A wondrous artifact capable of sensing danger over a wide area, crafted by an extremely reclusive true god, which he eventually stumbled upon in an unfinished tomb.

As time passed, this strange artifact lost only one-tenth of its original power, enough to at most support his exploration of the dangers of a continent.

But that's enough.

He channeled a wisp of dark green power into it, and the timid man's heart immediately began to spin rapidly, spreading his consciousness across the entire continent.

A moment later, his consciousness returned to himself.

"Hmph...very good."

His lips couldn't help but curl upwards, but he forcibly suppressed it.

During his recent investigation, he discovered that he was among the first true gods to awaken.

Furthermore, the number of True Gods he awakened was not large, and most of them were novice True Gods whose strength was far lower than his, so there was no need to worry at all.

As for those true gods whose strength surpasses his, they are still asleep due to the limitations of the world.

Even the strongest beings that have emerged in the world today are at most at the demigod level, which is hardly considered strong.

"No, I can't laugh yet."

Charon pursed his lips, his cheeks twitching slightly.

Although he wanted to claim that he was the strongest person in the world, his instincts as the God of Thieves told him that he couldn't jump to conclusions so easily.

At the very least, one should carefully analyze the current situation before deciding what to do next.

Charon then fell into serious and lengthy contemplation.

Ultimately, he came to a conclusion.

"At a time like this, why should I keep anything hidden!"

His ability to regain consciousness now indicates that global restrictions are being lifted.

This advancement will not stop because of his awakening, but will continue to climb until even the most supreme true gods can awaken.

What he should do most right now is to quickly reap enough benefits before those top true gods awaken.

He is now the strongest true god in the world, and those treasures that he could never obtain in his memory are now almost within his grasp.

If those more powerful true gods were to awaken, then this greatest advantage of mine would quickly fade away.

When that time comes, it will be too late for regrets.

Besides, I've been living a life of ignominy for so long, it's time for me to stand up for myself.

Not for any other reason than the self-esteem I had always been unable to attain!

That's it!

Charon immediately mustered his courage and went to the very top of the hill.

He looked around to make sure there was no stronger aura of a true god, then looked up at the star-studded sky.

"Speaking of which, why does the sky look like this right now?"

This was somewhat beyond his comprehension, and even the timid's heart couldn't discern any information from this sky.

However, he did not feel any dangerous oppression under this sky; it was probably just a natural wonder of the new era.

With that thought in mind, Charon naturally flew into the sky without making any attempt to conceal his presence.

Even against the backdrop of the starry sky, Charon's dark green figure stands out prominently in the heavens.

Just as he flew into the sky, preparing to use his superior vision to determine the location of the treasure, an arrow suddenly appeared in his senses.

"Um?"

Charon turned his head to look at the arrow hurtling towards him, somewhat stunned.

"Its aura was very ordinary; it was just a regular arrow."

But what kind of good person's arrow could fly that high?

Charon closed his eyes.

Should we hide?

The thought had barely crossed his mind when he immediately dismissed it.

Should I avoid its sharp edge?

How do you avoid a crudely made arrow that doesn't even have fletching?

If I'm afraid of even this thing, then what will become of the confidence I've worked so hard to build up?

Therefore, even though Charon could have easily dodged the arrow, he didn't make any move to dodge; he simply stood there, looking completely unperturbed.

That was true until the moment the arrow struck him.

Until that inconspicuous arrow actually hit him.

"Clang!"

The arrow seemed to have struck something hard, bouncing off Charon's left arm and plummeting downwards.

"Hmph, I knew it..."

Just before Charon was about to deliver his acceptance speech, a sudden change occurred.

"Click..."

A crack suddenly appeared on Charon's left arm.

"Um?"

Before Charon could react, the crack quickly spread across his entire body, overflowing with beams of light poised to explode.

"Wait! Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could I, the mighty Charon,…!"

-295,020 Beijing!

"Pugh—!!!"

A powerful force exploded on his body, sending him flying and leaving a dazzling dark green arc in the sky.

A little girl who was looking out the window at the starry sky witnessed this scene and called out to her mother behind her.

"Mom! Look, there's a shooting star! And it's green!"

"Oh, really? Then it must be a shooting star sent down by the goddess of life herself. Xiaofei, you should take this opportunity to make a wish to the goddess."

"Okay! I know, Mom, but will the goddess really grant my wish for a big doll?"

"Hmph~ Maybe."
