Dying In Real Life Is Another Way To Play - 37 System Notifications
After the brief battle with the Hal Torian Pantheon, Zhang Shan, Titiana and Carnalia beheaded the sleeping Gods and went back to the Village of Vinkarra.
Once there, Carnalia instructed some demon men to bring the dead bodies into the village center from the wilderness.
Zhang Shan and Titiana on the other hand went into Carnalias house to meet with the three. As they entered they were shocked to see a dismembered Ye Qing sprawled in the floor as Ye Qian was at lying at the floor with the look of horror.
Lan Ranyan on the other hand looked at Zhang Shan and Titiana as she said in a smiling face.
“What? He lost on the draw lots game so that’s what happened to him…”
Ye Qian stuttered angrily as she said “Y-you didn’t even give him a w-warning at all!”
“If I did, he would have tried to evade it… Besides, it would be less painful if he was still distracted… You know… Like when you pull a loose tooth when you were young?” Lan Ranyan answered her while shrugging her shoulders
Ye Qian looked at Zhang Shan and Titiana feeling wronged as Zhang Shan looked at her and then to Lan Ranyan as he said
“How the hell does this seem to be the same as pulling a tooth?”
Titiana nodded and followed up as she said “I’m not a tooth expert, but I think you missed the tooth… You might want to try it again?”
Zhang Shan and Ye Qian looked at Titiana thinking “That’s not the point!” and “Why the hell would you ask this unreasonable woman to try it again?”
Lan Ranyan shrugged them off and then crossed her hands as she sat down a nearby chair. Looking at Ye Qings corpse she said to Zhang Shan.
“In case he doesn’t get back up after a while, you might want to patch him up a bit.”
Zhang Shan nodded and around this time, Ye Qian got a hold of herself and went closer to him. Ye Qian thought she would rather be with Zhang Shan at this point as she felt how unruly Lan Ranyan was at times. Titiana was a bit off as well so, Zhang Shan might be dependable at least.
After a few breaths, an amazing thing occurred which never happened before to a corpse in the history of their gaming careers in ARC.
Ye Qing’s dismembered body slowly melted and became a pool of blood and then started gathering in the middle of the room until it became a floating bloody orb.
In Ye Qing’s vision darkness appeared, just a while ago, he once again felt the embrace of death. He saw memories from his childhood up until the present, playing in a fast forward pace. until it stopped and he was staring at nothing but complete darkness.
He then saw green light as it appeared to resemble words.

Lacking Resources? Ye Qing was stumped he didn’t know what that meant.
Did Zhang Shan encointered this before? He tried to think but he couldn’t recall if Zhang Shan or Titiana had ever mentioned this. Suddenly his vision returned although a bit different, he can see everyone in the room, however it seemd like he was trapped in a sphere.
Ye Qing tried to call them out, but it didn’t seem that they can hear him nor can he hear them. He knows that they can see him but most likely in a different form as they were all looking at him as if waiting. After several attempts he calmed himself and knew that somehie these guys would find something wrong if it takes too long for him to reappear.
Meanwhile Zhang Shan, Lan Ranyan, Titiana, Carnalia and Ye Qian were getting impatient as they stared at the blood colored floating orb. Although it looked gross, it didn’t seem to indicate any movement aside from the constant and occasional pulse of the surface as if there’s ripples in the water.
Ye Qian broke the silence as she said “Zhang Shan, do you think something went wrong? Why is my brother still not showing up?”
“I’m not sure how long it took for me and Titiana to finish the “rebirth” process or how we ended up in these bodies, I think we should just wait.” Zhang Shan answered her
“How long should we wait? I think it’s already two hours, and I’m not exactly sure what else can be done… Maybe we should break it open?” Lan Ranyan asked as she stood up
“NO!!!” Ye Qian ran in between the “Blood Orb” and Lan Ranyan with open arms trying to defend her “brother”
“Don’t you dare! I still haven’t forgiven you for what you did!” Ye Qian added while seething with anger as she gritted her teeth
“Okay, okay! suit yourself, I’m just saying…” Lan Ranyan answered as she shrugged her shoulders and sat back down
Suddenly a knock on the door can be heard and Carnalia opened it. One of the blue skinned demon men entrusted to bring the Gods Dead bodies back appeared on the other side of the opened door and kneeled.
“Lady Carnalia, all the bodies of the dead have been brought back at the village center”
“Great, will get to that later you can-” Carnalia replied and was cut off as she heard movement from her back.
On Ye Qings side the prompt reappeared in his vision and stated.
(Resources found, proceed with reconstruction? Yes)
As soon as he selected to confirm, the “Blood Orb moved towards the door and went outside.
*Whiiiiiiiizzzzzz*
Carnalia grabbed the blue skinned demon and ducked out of the way while Zhang Shan and the others followed it outside. After which it stopped on top of one of the beheaded god and started to dissolve and absorb it, then it continued to travel to two more bodies after it finished consuming the first.
The way it absorbed the corpse was uncanny as if the corpse started to turn to ash slowly and gently being sucked into the “Bloody Orb”. After a few breaths, it finished the process and slowly started to take shape into a humanoid form.

Slowly, Ye Qing felt over flowing power come to him as he finished his “rebirth”
Ye Qing looked at the others and they looked back at him with their mouths agape and he saw Ye Qian and Lan Ranyan turn around to hide their faces
He asked “Why are you looking at me like that?” however his voice ended up being too deep and low as he heard it himself
“Y-you look like a g-giant-” Ye Qian stuttered as she was cut off
“Now that’s a Giant “Cannon”! ” Zhang Shan exclaimed and gave Ye Qing a thumbs up.
As Ye Qing noticed the ladies reaction, he looked at himself and found that he has indeed become taller and larger than usual. Aside from being naked, standing at around 8 feet tall, he now has at least a 16 inch large “Cannon” and two fist sized “Grenades”.
Ye Qing features is that of a humanoid bull with pure black eyes, though without the protuded snout and hooves, he did have short horns about two inches in length, two bull-like ears, two human ears and two tails. His muscular physique showed firm and well developed muscles and a 12-pack stomach. His hair is of blonde in color that covered his head, chest, armpits and groin area.
Titiana gave him a cloth to cover his lower regions and a green looking jade mirror to let him check himself, he was stumped with his looks, it was truly different from what he initially looled like in game which made it farther than his real looks in real life.
Seeing him frown, Carnalia told him about her “milk” and asked him to come with her back into the house and fed him. As Carnalia went back out after a few minutes, she bowed to everyone and then opened the door as she presented Ye Qing as he was coming out of the house.
When the two came out, Ye Qing went back to his normal stature and his face looked quite different than before albeit smal protuding horns in his forehead. Ye Qian saw this and identified his brothers real face. She was then very intrigued with Carnalias “milk”.
However, Ye Qian said that his Rastran gene was too potent and the system indicated that he would revert to his Rastran appearance if he wished to unleash his full strength, in this current figure though, he can only exert 10% power.
When Zhang Shan heard this, he asked Ye Qian to punch him in the chest in his human form. Ye Qian agreed and punched him straight away, causing Zhang Shan to crash into four houses as his chest caved in. Although he wasn’t damaged to say the least, he did feel pain as if he crashed into a bullet train.
After filling Zhang Shans curiosity, Ye Qing remained as he was in his human form then told everyone what haooened during the “rebirth” process and why it took longer than expected. Everyone nodded in understanding.
Ye Qing then looked at the two as he asked. “Who’s up next?”
Lan Ranyan smiled as she looked at Ye Qian.
Ye Qian felt her hair standing up as she cringed and said.
“Wai-” and sadly, she died before she could utter her word.
The same process happened, but this time the “Blood Orb” only absored one additional corpse.
Before the process was complete, Carnalia asked the village people to remain at their homes as requested by Ye Qing. Ye Qing then turned around and covered Zhang Shans eyes, after he heard that Zhang Shan has little to absolutely none when it comes to self-control from Titiana, he wouldn’t want his sister to be defiled by this asshole.

Slowly, Ye Qian felt over flowing power come to her as she finished her “rebirth”, after which she emerged naked and was covered by Carnalia with cloth.
Ye Qian appeared to be smaller than her normal form about a few inches shorter roughly around 5’4 feet tall, she had a petite body with voluptous breasts, Her face was shaped like peach and snake-like eyes. She had red ears like a fox on her head which ended looking like a head band and a pair of human ears, long claw like finger nails and had nine majestic red fox tails with different colored tips. Her hair was all white and her teeth had retractable vixen-like fangs.
When she looked at the green looking jade mirror she was surprised by her mesmerizing beautiful looks, she even “fell” for her cute looks qnd loved it. But still, she asked Carnalia for assistance and was fed her “milk”.
When Ye Qian went out to appear in front of the others , she still had that mesmerizing look but a changed appearance, one that reflects similarly to her real life face her genes were potent too, causing her fox ears and a tail to remain visible. Her strength was capped at 10% as well.
After which, everyone looked at Lan Ranyan and smiled as if saying “Look who’s next!”. However, before they can move, they saw Titiana’s claws cut her head from behind.
“She told me earlier to surprise her too…” Titiana said nonchalantly
Again, the same process happened. The red “Blood Orb” appeared and absorbed two corpses.

Slowly, Lan Ranyan felt over flowing power come to her as she finished her “rebirth”, after which she emerged naked and was covered by Titiana with cloth.
Lan Ranyan appeared slighly taller at 5’9 feet tall, just like Titiana, Zhang Shan and Carnalia.
She doesn’t seemed too different from a normal human except that ethereal beauty, red luscious lips, purple eyes and six angel-like wings at her back. Her hair turned golden and her skin smooth and white like jade.
When Carnalia saw her, she felt fear and reverence as if her genes are telling her to be subservient to her as well. She immediately offered her “milk” and Lan Ranyan gladly accepted.
Lan Ranyan’s genes were potent as well causing her to still have a remaining pair of wings though smaller like a cherubim wings.
for visiting.
After reappearing in front of everyone, Lan Ranyan closed her eyes to check her stats. The two also did the same and were suprised to find an additional gene aside from the race they chosen and human genes, they also had demon genes in them.
Hearing this, Titiana mentioned the possibility that these genes came from the dead gods. She mentioned that the overall average power they showed earlier was already way beyond than that of the level 100.
This was in fact correct, since the update patch was applied and the genes of “Royal One” has been duplicated, all pantheon units have been upgraded and are now experiencing the ability to be able to increase their stats and level up, unlike before where their level was automatically at the 100’s once they were deployed.
Currently, the update patch level cap is at level 250 to help identify the current strength and stats of the players.
As everyone was checking their stats and discussing it, Zhang Shan froze and heard the system notification in his head.

Before he could read through the numbers a new system notification rang through his head.
