147: Chapter 129: Redemption Items 147: Chapter 129: Redemption Items It was a void space, where Lu Ping’an floated without an up or down, and without any outcomes. Amidst the shattered space around him, he saw many things: victims of the disaster, countless sea beasts and Fishmen’s huge army, in this part of “history,” there was no formidable Auntie Zhou and the innumerable professional reinforcements. Lu Ping’an even saw the “other world,” those stolen “cans,” and the strange and peculiar Otherworldly realm, of course, not to mention the “giant fish.” But more than that, it was the relatively real “history.” What happened within was beyond tragic. The raging flood brought countless Fishmen and water beasts. The lack of massive sniping of key points by professionals led to the immediate disappearance of the city and its millions of inhabitants in just a few hours. There was no resistance, no relief, and not even any hope. Perhaps this false history is a consolation for the souls of those who hoped for help but never knew it was coming. “Lu Ping’an!” Big Cat’s voice, filled with urgency, suddenly awakened the young man. As he opened his eyes, he found himself in a bizarre space. It was a platform floating in midair, with nothing on it but a single, isolated building. The stars were shining, but everything he saw was gray, as if covered in mist, making it all seem unreal. “The starlight is disappearing?” A glimmer of light fell beside Lu Ping’an, then turned into a phantom and dissipated in the air. Lu Ping’an noticed that it was a human figure, seemingly a high-level professional. At the moment when the claws of the Evil Gods stretched out, the whole Secret Realm was overloaded and collapsed entirely… Fortunately, the collapse occurred just in time, or Lu Ping’an would have been doomed. At this time, it was natural to clear out and send the adventurers out of the Secret Realm. “So, this is strange, where could this be…” Lu Ping’an thought subconsciously, but in this bizarre area, thought itself was an action. The next moment, he stood before the massive building. “…Is this an altar? The altar of the Redemption Hand?” Lu Ping’an’s basis for judgment was a “silver-gray hand,” which he had previously seen outside the Secret Realm as the holy-emblem. It floated in midair, holding a green energy sphere, filled with countless voices and chaotic shadows. The sphere occasionally transformed as if something was constantly trying to spew out. “Purifying newly-added pollutants? Then this should be the core of the Secret Realm.” Lu Ping’an looked around, and in fact, the place was quite simple. Apart from the altar, there were just a few pieces of “debris” spread across the floor. These were all man-made objects, including broken picture frames, shattered coffins, and even discolored rag dolls soaked in water, as well as bloodstained clothes. With just one glance, Lu Ping’an could tell that these were probably remnants of the victims. There were many types and it was messy, spreading chaotically around the ground, so that taking just a few steps revealed another layer beneath. “…Why is this? Is this simply to commemorate the dead? Would it be necessary to do so in the core area? This arrangement doesn’t look like a memorial…” As Lu Ping’an pondered, he instinctively felt that the answer to this question might be crucial for him. But the next moment, the light enveloped him and he was suddenly transported to the real world. “Who the TMD* is Lu Ping’an?!” A roar of anger rang in his ears. “Who’s looking for me, TM* who…” Lu Ping’an was about to curse back, but when he looked up, he immediately changed his mind. “…It’s me, your mortal enemy Lu Ping’an! That scoundrel went too far! Absolutely inhuman!” Lu Ping’an’s change of tone was incredibly fast. There was really no way around it. With hundreds of people blocking the entrance of the Secret Realm, they stared at each other, searching for someone. “Damn that Lu Ping’an!” “Two days! No, twenty-seven hours! We only got to play for one day and three hours, setting a new record low!” “He monopolized all the benefits, screwing over everyone else…” These infuriated professionals, holding various weapons, seemed to have reached their limits. After thinking for a moment, Lu Ping’an looked back at the entrance of the Secret Realm and muttered quietly, “Let’s settle this quickly.” Being keen on taking risks didn’t mean he was keen on seeking death. Even a hero doesn’t suffer an immediate loss. “Redemption items, redemption items! If given a choice, we must choose them!” On the other side, Big Cat was even more proactive than Lu Ping’an. They had agreed on this before, so Lu Ping’an nodded without saying much. Each Deity has their own domain and way, and their special abilities and doctrines often manifest within the Secret Realms contaminated by their power; the Redemption Hand was no exception. The redemption items, or “lifelines,” were unique rewards of the Redemption Secret Realm. Just as gallant warriors in the Knight’s Secret Realm would receive additional rewards such as weapons, extra trial chances, and blessings from Deities, there were always a few people who would receive strange items after the Redemption Secret Realm. Most of these items were not powerful, and many were considered “garbage” by professionals who didn’t use contaminated items. However, the items mysteriously became useful in the near future. Furthermore, they were mostly used to save lives… Of course, considering that disasters faced by professionals were sometimes beyond the capabilities of individuals, in most cases, they allowed the afflicted to pass away peacefully, like a fast-acting painkiller. Redemption items were so named because they had a life-saving effect similar to that of the Secret Realm rewards. Even if they couldn’t save your body, they could at least save you from pain. “Huh? This time we can choose multiple items? It seems our performance was not bad…” Things went as expected – this time, as the top contributor in both categories, this was likely Lu Ping’an’s best Secret Realm evaluation yet. With just a glance, Lu Ping’an started laughing; his influence factor had reached a staggering 33%. Considering the remaining 50% was for other professionals and only a portion of that was claimed, it could be said that Lu Ping’an single-handedly crushed this Secret Realm. It was challenging to bring items out of Historical Secret Realms, so the Secret Realm rewards were relatively abundant, and this led to the creation of the contribution ranking, which wasn’t typically seen in most Secret Realms. Now that Lu Ping’an had taken so much and the others had so little time and had gained so little, it was no wonder some people were furious and transformed into explosive old brother. The ability to choose multiple items, just like the previous time, made Lu Ping’an breathe a sigh of relief. After all, the redemption item was a must-have that he had agreed upon with Big Cat, and it might come in handy soon. However, if he only got a redemption item, it would be a bit of a loss. Lu Ping’an pulled down a sizeable list of rewards and quickly clicked on “F. Redemption Item.” The next moment, a silver-white old book appeared in his hand. With just a glance at the cover, Lu Ping’an burst into laughter. “A Usage and Construction Manual for Historical Secret Realms… Big Cat, are you sure the Redemption Hand isn’t mocking us? Teaching us how to clear historical dungeons?” This thin, worn book was a Silver-grade Taboo Knowledge volume. At the other end, Big Cat’s prolonged silence made Lu Ping’an even happier. Both of them were not fools. In an instant, they thought of the same possibility. “It seems we’re going to be quite busy.” Big Cat’s words were heavy. “It seems our future will be quite interesting.” Lu Ping’an’s laughter was light and airy. Both of their thoughts led to completely different answers based on just one result, but it seemed they were talking about the same thing. “Hey, sister Xia Qin, please help me check something. Are the graves and relics of the victims from our previous encounter still there…?”
