"Master, is there any use in issuing a [Huangquan Task]?"
Afu was puzzled and said, "The Konoha player who died already had [Tier 2] strength. Even if he were thrown into the 'Attack on Titan' world, there wouldn't be much room for growth."
"Attack on Titan" is a [Tier 1] world.
The [cycle] story of the River of Destiny is about a world where a human natural enemy, the [Titan], suddenly appeared. They have no reason, are enormous in size, and only have the desire to madly devour humans.
Under the threat of death, humans built three circular giant walls, imprisoning themselves to avoid the Titans' attacks.
The world's strength and the concentration of its inherent source energy, as Afu said, are very low, at most comparable to the Demon Slayer World.
A [Tier 2] player thrown into the [Giant World] would simply not be able to obtain enough reward points.
Afu said, "Instead of issuing Huangquan Tasks to fulfill the obsessions of countless Otherworld spirits, it would be better to let players directly buy underworld flowers with reward points."
These Huangquan Tasks are essentially about resolving the obsessions of dead spirits.
In countless Otherworlds, there are innumerable spirits. Those with deep obsessions are drawn into the Underworld and eventually eaten as food by the [Huangquan Ghost King].
Looking at Afu's inquisitive gaze, Fang Yi didn't beat around the bush and explained, "The [Road to the Underworld] is very special. Although it belongs to the Contaminated World, its faction status is absolutely neutral. Besides drawing in spirits with unresolved obsessions, it does nothing else."
Afu nodded upon hearing this; it was indeed true.
"These spirits from countless Otherworlds have very deep obsessions. Even after dying, they are unwilling to dissipate and linger in their worlds."
"By helping them resolve their obsessions, they can be drawn into the Reincarnation Game."
Fang Yi's eyes lit up; these were all high-quality players.
Although revival coins can [resurrect], they consume a lot of source energy.
[Tier 1] was fine, but as players gradually grew to [Tier 2], the source energy required for revival also increased proportionally.
The revival effect of revival coins was like Fang Yi paying money to buy people from the [Huangquan Ghost King].
Huangquan Tasks were equivalent to directly bypassing the Huangquan Ghost King and quietly abducting spirits, which could greatly save expenses.
Therefore, it was decided to cancel the reward points required for player revival and instead have them recruit new players for the Reincarnation Game. If they brought in new players, they could revive for free.
This way, Fang Yi wouldn't have to exhaust himself running around different worlds; he could directly recruit a large number of excellent new players.
...
Narrow streets, densely packed low-rise houses.
Familiar thick, high walls, like shields, surrounded all the buildings.
The blurry vision gradually cleared.
"Didn't I… die?"
Eren's eyes widened suddenly. He stretched out his hands, looking at his perfectly intact body, unable to believe it.
The street was filled with villagers watching the commotion.
The heavy city gate was lowered, and accompanied by a melodious bell, a team of crippled soldiers slowly walked out from within the wall's opening.
This scene was so familiar.
It's the Survey Corps!
Something's wrong… Is this Wall Maria, which has already fallen?
"Mikasa? Is that really you? Are you still alive?!"
Eren suddenly turned his head.
Seeing the black-haired girl standing beside him, he immediately shouted loudly.
But the other party seemed not to hear him, not even turning her head. Seeing this, he tried to touch her.
Bang.
He was blocked by an invisible barrier.
"The countdown for the Huangquan Task isn't over yet. Don't waste your energy, kid."
Eren looked up.
He saw that the person speaking was an uncle dressed strangely, with white hair and a metal forehead protector.
"Who are you?"
Although Eren had low emotional intelligence, his observational skills were very keen.
No one on the noisy street paid attention to him, as if he was isolated, but the uncle in front of him could talk to him.
Moreover, he had never seen this person in the nearby district before.
A stranger.
"Instead of asking who I am, you might as well search your mind. The Reincarnation Game should have already told you."
Jiraiya hadn't expected the Huangquan Task to be so special.
He would be performing the task with a spirit.
If he could complete the main quest while ensuring the spirit didn't die, in addition to underworld flowers, he would also receive a large sum of reward points.
"Reincarnation Game?!"
Before Eren could think, a flood of information rushed in. He murmured, "I'm already dead?"
He had just been confused, but now he was certain.
A [Colossal Titan] had shattered Wall Maria, countless Titans had poured into the city, and then there was a bloody massacre.
He, including Mikasa and Armin, had all been eaten by Titans.
"How could I die? I shouldn't have died…"
Eren suddenly had this strange thought.
He always felt that he shouldn't have been killed by Titans; everything felt very wrong.
"The consciousness of the [Giant World] has been contaminated, so the [cycle] of the River of Destiny naturally collapses, which is commonly known as plot chaos."
Fang Yi observed their interaction, taking notes, preparing to identify and fix any omissions.
According to the original destiny,
Eren, as the favored one of destiny in the [Giant World], possessed the ability to control all past and future Titans. All crises were merely thrilling but ultimately harmless events for him.
He would follow the development of destiny, successfully become a member of the Survey Corps, experience a series of events, and eventually initiate the Rumbling, temporarily ending the war in the Giant World.
But after the contamination eroded the world, the favored one of destiny was eaten by a Titan right at the beginning, no wonder his obsession was so deep.
"Reincarnation Game… After completing the main quest, I can truly revive and return to the real world?"
Eren felt as if he was dreaming, absurd and bizarre.
Jiraiya looked at the stunned Eren and chuckled, "Do you understand, kid? What we need to do now is complete the main quest."
Eren looked up, staring at Jiraiya, with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, and asked, "So, everything in my mind is true? I really died once, and then was temporarily revived by the Reincarnation Game?"
Now, the civilians standing around and the perfectly intact Wall Maria all indicated that he had returned to the time just before the Colossal Titan was about to appear.
After hearing Eren's words, Jiraiya silently memorized the information and then said, "That should be correct. At least when I met you, you were already dead."
At that time, he had used his [Prophet] sensing ability to select Eren as the spirit.
At this point, Jiraiya finally understood the peculiarity of the [Road to the Underworld] map and muttered to himself, "So that's it, a very special way of recruiting players?"
It was like the ninjas who received game invitations and became players.
He was now a very special invitation, or rather, a guide.
The spirit was the player to be recruited. As long as the main quest was completed and Eren was kept alive, he would become a new player, just like the ninjas who received game invitations.
"Good thing!"
Jiraiya weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
Unlike those who became players through invitations periodically issued by the [Family System], these players selected by the Reincarnation Game for special recruitment were mostly lives with excellent potential and talent.
If he could act as a guide and recruit them as players, it would be a huge benefit for Konoha.
However, the danger level was also extremely high.
Jiraiya could sense that all his abilities were sealed and he couldn't use them; he was even weaker than ordinary people in the Ninja World.
Just like those civilians in the Demon Slayer and Claymore worlds.
Jiraiya thought to himself, "So, Mr. Fang Yi's meaning is that the basis for completing the Huangquan Task requires starting with the physical strength of the spirit world?"
This task mode was undoubtedly very difficult.
Once the task failed, death awaited him.
Thinking of the task prompt that allowed him to temporarily purchase in-world game items by consuming [underworld points], Jiraiya quickly opened his player panel, brought up the Store, and looking at a strangely shaped device, asked, "Kid, what is Three-Dimensional Maneuver Gear?"
