“Yes, I once obtained a legacy through the Holy Mountain trial.” Zhou Chen replied calmly.

He vaguely remembered that the Survival mission was his first mid bronze ranked dungeon. He heard from his companion that he could obtain a legacy by passing the Holy Mountain trial. He relied on Vera’s Teleportation Stone to come over and obtained the Card Creator legacy.
Zhou Chen had originally planned to develop this legacy as a secondary Class, but unfortunately, his growth speed was too fast. In just ten or so dungeons, in a year or two, he had already grown to a height that surpassed the Sage of the Holy Mountain.

He no longer needed to progress as a Card Creator. After becoming a fake god, Zhou Chen’s divine power was much stronger than that soul power. As long as he had enough divine power, he could basically do anything. He did not need to create cards.

“Oh? I didn’t sense an otherworldly aura when you entered the Holy Mountain. Looks like I’m really getting old.” The Sage was skeptical of Zhou Chen’s words. As a big shot of this world, he was committed to giving the legacies to suitable people. However, these people did not include guests from other
worlds. Unfortunately, he did not know that Zhou Chen and the others had the system on them that could easily fool him.

“Old Baldy, don’t worry about your legacies. This other world expert clearly doesn’t rely on your legacy . Moreover, since he can bring my daughter back, that means he has good intentions.” Vera’s mother interrupted their conversation and opened a portal to bring Vera home. She also invited Zhou Chen to
bea guest.

Zhou Chen followed gladly. He determined that this place was safe, and he was strong enough now to protect himself.
Therefore, Zhou Chen spent a period of leisure time in this other world. He arrived at the Dragonborn’s hometown, the snowfield in the far north, and stayed as a guest in the majestic Dragonbom castle for two days.

The weather here was cold, and it was covered in snow all year round. There were some powerful monsters living here.

After staying in Vera’s hometown for two days, Zhou Chen and Vera went to revisit a city.

To be precise, it was where Zhou Chen had ended the previous Survival mission in this world: Red Valley City.

Ever since the invasion of the abyssal monsters two years ago, Red Valley City had not completely recovered. The size of the city and the number of residents had decreased by nearly half, and it was difficult to restore the original clamor.

Walking on the unfamiliar streets of Red Valley City, Zhou Chen could still see a lot of traces after the disaster, such as large numbers of unoccupied buildings, orphanages filled with people, and simple graves.

At this moment, Vera was making plans for Zhou Chen.

“Zhou, I’ve consulted my parents. We can promote the faith of the Lord of Benevolence here. As long as we don’t harm the civilians, the Guardians won’t interfere. Of course, it would be better if we can bring some practical benefits to the citizens here.”
“No problem. Let’s open a church here and provide medical care, education, and food to poor children.”

Zhou Chen had just seen the orphanage in Red Valley City and felt that the conditions were quite poor. It was not because the orphanage was not attentive, but because it lacked resources and could barely provide for the children.

“Alright, I’l plan this immediately.”

As Zhou Chen’s envoy, Vera would handle these matters. All Zhou Chen needed to do was give his support.

After the two of them finished talking, they arrived at the border of Red Valley City after a while. There were no more residents in front of them, only simple and rough graves.

“This is the graveyard of the deceased. According to the statistics, Red Valley City lost 70% of its residents.” Vera explained to Zhou Chen.

“30% is quite good. This means that the reinforcements came in time.” Zhou Chen nodded. He remembered the situation. The appearance of the Abyss fissure had brought a large number of monsters, and most of the citizens could not resist. With just the few extraordinary beings here, it was possible that
Red Valley City would have become history.

“By the way, I think you should take a look at someone’s grave.” Suddenly, Vera seemed to think of something. She led Zhou Chen into the graveyard.
“Whose grave?” Zhou Chen was curious. He did not know many people in this world.

“That should be a companion from your hometown.” Vera replied as she led the way. After a while, they arrived at an ordinary tomb without the name of the tomb owner.

“After the Guardians closed the Abyss fissure and eliminated the monsters, I found a young woman among the corpses. She was the one who went to the Holy Mountain with us. I saw that she was quite pitiful and happened to know her, so I set up this grave for her.”
Vera introduced the grave. Zhou Chen quickly remembered that the person buried here was his unlucky female companion from the Survival mission. She was the tall girl who always had a cold expression.

Zhou Chen remembered that her strength was not bad. Her saber arts were very good, but unfortunately, her luck was too bad. After suffering serious injuries in the Holy Mountain trial, she encountered the invasion of the Abyss monsters. She had finally dodged the monsters to survive, but she died from
the area-of-effect damage from the natives’ battle. She died the day before the end of the Survival mission.

Thinking of it now, Zhou Chen still felt a little emotional because it was this girl who had suggested going to the Holy Mountain. She had been very motivated and had been working hard to increase her strength, but in the end, she had unexpectedly failed.
“Zhou, you should know her name, right?” Vera brought Zhou Chen over, as if she wanted to engrave the name of this girl who had died two years ago.

“Sorry, I don’t really remember.” Zhou Chen immediately shook his head. He had long forgotten about such a distant thing. Or rather, this girl had never mentioned her name to him before because to a Survivor, this had to be kept a secret. The names they said were all fake names.

“Oh, that’s too bad. I thought you were close to her.” Vera was a little regretful.

“It is not a problem. We can just ask her ourselves.” Zhou Chen suddenly smiled.

“Huh? You want to attract her soul to ask? It’s been two years, her soul has long left this world.”

Vera felt that Zhou Chen’s idea was not practical. There were indeed spells that could communicate with dead people in this world. For example, necromancers were good at this, but even a Legendary necromancer would find it difficult to recall the soul of a person who was dead for two years.
“No, I’ll try to revive her.” Zhou Chen shook his head again, indicating that Vera was thinking too simply. As a fake god, he was not someone ordinary powerful beings could compare to.

“Revive? That’s impossible. Do you want to revive a skeleton?” A person who had been dead for two years could be used as a material to summon skeletons, but a perfect resurrection was basically a fantasy.

“You’ll know it soon.” Divine power was basically omnipotent as far as Zhou Chen knew. Now was the time to test it.

“Divine power, resurrect the corpse in this tomb!” He tried to gather the divine power he had accumulated over the past few days.

Divine power had a very special attribute. If nothing happened, it would not be consumed. It would only give you the feedback of insufficient divine power. If you had enough divine power, the instruction would immediately be completed.

‘As Zhou Chen willed it, a dignified and pure mighty power immediately covered the grave in front of him, exhausting some of his divine power.

‘It succeeded? Moreover, the consumption is much lower than I expected.’

Surprised, Zhou Chen immediately began to sense the interior of the grave. As expected, he found the feedback from the Bloodthirst!

“There’s movement!” Vera also quickly realized that there was a sound coming from the grave!

“Is she unable to crawl out?” Sensing that the person he revived might not be able to climb out of the grave, Zhou Chen casually used his Eight Desolates True Energy to lift the pile of dirt on the grave.

Then, he saw that inside the grave, a black-haired girl, whose clothes were almost completely tattered, was lying on the ground with a stunned expression. Beside her was an extremely rusty long saber.

“She really revived!” Seeing the girl’s appearance, Vera immediately determined that this was a perfect resurrection and not an undead. She immediately took off her coat and went forward to drape it over the girl and help her up.

“What… happened to me?” The tall girl from Planet Blue was still puzzled. She stood up and asked Vera and Zhou Chen, who looked familiar.

“You have been dead for two years. I have just revived you. Can you still open the system interface?” Zhou Chen was very interested in knowing what would happen when a long dead Survivor was revived.

Disbelief appeared in the girl’s eyes when she heard his words, but in the next moment, she frowned.

“My system interface has disappeared… Did I really revive?!”

Survivors knew that the system interface would always be with them. She had never heard of the system interface going missing.

‘Oh? In that case, there’s a way to get rid of the system…”

Looking at the girl’s reaction, Zhou Chen determined that she should be telling the truth. He couldn’t help but touch his chin. In that case, as long as a Survivor was revived perfectly after dying, they should be able to escape the system’s influence.

Unfortunately, the threshold for perfect resurrection was very high. Ordinary Survivors could not come into contact with it.

‘Should I get rid of the system like this? Zhou Chen immediately began to consider, but he immediately gave up on this plan.

‘It’s quite interesting to be brought to various worlds by the system. It’s worth the risk.

The Survival system treated Zhou Chen quite well. It gave him a very good talent, allowing him to quickly develop to his current level. Therefore, even though the system’s origins and goal were not clear, Zhou Chen did not have much resentment towards it. Instead, he felt grateful.
“The system seems to have really left me. How will I go back?” While Zhou Chen was thinking, the tall girl, who had been resurrected by him, seemed to be a little lost. She knew at a glance that she was in another world, and without the system, It was impossible for her to return.
“Why go back? This world is a world of extraordinary beings. You can slowly develop here without the system.” Zhou Chen felt that this girl had obtained an opportunity. Some of the Survivors had probably dreamed of it for a long time.

“No, I have a feeling that this world is rejecting and suppressing me. My breathing is a little irregular now.” However, the tall girl immediately told Zhou Chen that things were not that simple.

Zhou Chen began to sense the girl’s body condition and realized that she really seemed to be in a bad state, as if there was an invisible burden on her.

‘Is she being rejected by this world because she is not a native? Looks like without the system’s help, the Survivors can’t live freely in other worlds.’

After understanding this situation, Zhou Chen sent her a stream of energy to relieve her discomfort.

“Til try to create a door to Planet Blue soon. Just follow me at that time.”

Returning to Planet Blue with his own strength was Zhou Chen’s plan. Bringing this girl with him was just a convenience.

“Thank you so much… You still remembered to revive me after becoming so powerful. I can’t repay you in this life!” The tall girl bowed deeply to Zhou Chen. She was currently rejected by this world and felt a little terrified. Only the powerful Zhou Chen could give her a sense of security.
“You don’t have to thank me. I only wanted to test my ability by resurrecting you. Stay with us for the next few days. When I’m ready, we’ll return to Planet Blue.”

Zhou Chen had not revived this girl because he had deep feelings for her. In fact, if not for Vera mentioning her, he would have forgotten about this person.

He had resurrected her because he wanted to test the limits of his divine power. From the looks of it, divine power was indeed godly power. It was really ridiculously powerful, making him want to really absorb the Godhood and become a god.

“The cost of resurrecting her was quite low, it should be related to her strength being only mid bronze. If a person of my level dies, the cost of the divine power will probably be very terrifying.’

Zhou Chen got a lot of information from the tall girl’s resurrection. He felt that he could prepare some resurrection plans.

“Zhou, I want to take a look at your world too.” Vera looked at Zhou Chen with anticipation.

“Really? Aren’t you afraid of being rejected by the world?” Zhou Chen couldn’t help but smile. Planet Blue was definitely very far from this world. Vera, this otherworldly person, would almost definitely be rejected.

“It’s okay, I can endure it. Moreover, I can ask my parents to prepare some spells for me.” Vera did not care about this. She was a Dragonbom, a naturally powerful existence.

“Alright, let’s go together then. I hope I can gather enough divine power as soon as possible.”

Ever since he obtained the two Authorities, even though Zhou Chen did not gather more believers, the divine power continued to increase. He was becoming more and more fond of divine power, and was preparing to study this powerful high-level energy and do more things..
