Poverty makes me capable of anything.

“We don’t intend to lie to you. We don’t know where that base is hidden right now, but that’s not a big problem for the Royal Knights. If a month isn’t enough, then two months, if two months aren’t enough, then six months, a year… Do you think the Time-Space Expansion can evade the Royal Knights’ search with that secret base?”

The threatening words were thrown directly in An Ran's face.

At this point, the Templars were no longer in the mood for a proper chat with An Ran.

Anatoly died at the hands of that damned woman!

If it weren't for carrying out the Knights' plan, they would have killed this woman long ago!

"One minute left! You don't actually think you can escape with our combined efforts, do you?"

The three Templar Knights' expressions began to turn ugly.

They are ready to take action.

Just then, An Ran stepped forward: "No problem, of course I'm not a person who breaks his promises."

"Let's begin then."

The Templar Knight who spoke first waved his hand again, pushing the six Void Resonators in front of An Ran.

A slight smile played on his lips.

Not long ago, he told Anran that the void resonance body could only exist for two minutes after leaving the human body.

But in reality, this time is ten minutes.

He was simply using a coercive approach to conversation.

The shorter the time frame, the harder it is for people to make rational decisions.

There was no other way but to agree. If we didn't do it now, the entire Time-Space Dimension would be ruined, and most importantly, we wouldn't be able to escape either.

Rather than risk both sides exploding, it's better to comply and cooperate with the Royal Knights.

That's generally how people think.

An Ran "looked" at the floating void resonance in front of her.

This is the peace as seen from the Templars' perspective.

In fact, An Ran was examining the task window that had just popped up.

"You have completed the quest [Reignited Flame]. You will automatically accept the Void Resonator. The fifth stage of the main quest [Dreamy Song] [Lives in Hibernation] has been unlocked. Do you wish to accept?"

Unlike the fourth stage where tasks are forcibly accepted and there are penalties for failure, this one is different.

The new mission, "Hibernation," gives An Ran the option to choose.

[Hibernation]

[Mission Summary]: You have entered the Royal Knights' encirclement and learned of their plans. Choose to cooperate with the Royal Knights to eliminate the Void, a higher-dimensional being harboring malice towards the world; otherwise, you know what will happen.

"It's inevitable that the Royal Knights will retaliate."

[Task Rewards]:

A.1. Established a partnership with the Royal Knights.

A.2. Quietly await the arrival of the final judgment in the designated area.

B.1. Refuse to cooperate with the Royal Knights.

B.2. Cooperate with the Royal Knights to complete the reincarnation plan.

A. Complete the A-line mission to receive 10 billion free experience points and 3 Rejuvenating Winds.

B. Complete the B route mission, GAME OVER.

"..."

Even if you were to dig out An Ran's brain, she wouldn't be foolish enough to complete the B-line mission at this point.

"Accept the mission."

Anran chose to confirm.

At that moment, the void resonance surrounding her body landed on her arm and melted instantly, like an ice cream being baked in the sun.

"it is good!"

The three Templar Knights were invigorated.

They had been waiting for this moment. All An Ran needed to do was open her heart, and the Void Resonator would become one with her.

tick-

[Void Resonance Entities are merging—]

Anran received a notification from the game.

[Current progress 1%]

[Current progress 3%]

Just when Anran thought the game would slowly repeat itself dozens of times, a new game prompt appeared.

[Current voidification process is 33% complete]

"!"

An Ran subconsciously took a step back.

"Are you going to back out?"

The Templar Knights questioned An Ran, even drawing their weapons.

"Don't bother me, just quietly count the circles."

An Ran glanced at the three of them with disdain.

I have important business to attend to, I don't have time to chat with you guys.

"you……"

"Don't be impulsive!"

A Templar Knight quickly pulled his companion back, saying, "Can't you see she's fusing with the Void Resonance? Can you take responsibility if something goes wrong?"

Life isn't just about these arguments; there's a long road ahead.

[Current voidification process is 44% complete]

An Ran listened to the game prompts with a blank expression.

Isn't this just stirring up trouble? It's harmless to the human body, but it can accelerate the process of becoming void. It's practically... a good thing.

The progress bar finally stopped at 44%.

It's a pity, a pity. If it really turned into emptiness, in a sense it would be a good thing.

Hidden race.

Higher base attributes.

And they can transform, just like Ella; both of them can transform!

That sounds exciting!

About two minutes later, the progress bar for the fusion of the Void Resonance finally filled up.

[Void Resonance Entity Fusion Successfully]

You have become the spark of the Holy Judgment Project.

[Warning: Your death will cause the main quest to fail.]

[Warning: The death of the spark will cause the Holy Judgment Plan to fail]

[Warning: If the Holy Judgment Project succeeds, you will directly receive 1% of the Holy Judgment faction war contribution points.]

"..."

Temptation!

That's the temptation from the main quest!

The three warnings, seemingly well-intentioned, are actually telling Anran that if she follows the main quest, her life will not be in danger, and that by following the main quest, she will reap huge benefits.

The price you have to pay is "only" becoming the final boss.

With such great opportunities right in front of you, don't hesitate, take action!

The death of the spark will cause the Holy Judgment Plan to fail.

The ultimate goal of the Royal Knights is to launch a holy judgment.

Although they didn't know what the Holy Judgment was or why they were launching it, none of that mattered to An Ran.

All she needs to know is that she is the spark, and the Royal Knights need her, this living spark, unless they can complete the "reincarnation plan" mentioned in the main quest.

"Then everything is easy to discuss."

An Ran gave the three Templar Knights a "friendly" smile.

The Templars did not notice anything amiss with An Ran.

Their attention was completely drawn to the void resonance before them.

The void resonance body melted automatically, but the scheduled ten minutes had not yet elapsed.

That is to say-

"Success!"

Their long-planned scheme is finally on track!

Once the tinder is successfully implanted, everything else will be much easier.

The three Templar Knights were deeply moved. They had come to understand the core of the plan and knew how difficult it would be to succeed.

First, they need a top-tier master, preferably a grandmaster, who is willing to cooperate with the plan.

Many members of the Royal Knights were willing to dedicate themselves, including Grand Commander Ronald. However, the plan encountered setbacks as soon as it was put into action. The coordinates they replicated were useless, and they were unable to communicate with the void at all!

The Knights then turned their attention to the coordinates "created" by the Holy Letter.

It was only then that they discovered that there were special restrictions on the coordinates; you couldn't just become one whenever you wanted.
