Chapter Summaries

Qin Chuan brought Season Star and the others to Night Watcher Headquarters, where they received Dark Night Blessing and set out to take on tasks. Their arrival advanced Night Lady’s return progress, leaving Qin Chuan wondering whether the blessings were helping Alesha return.

• Qin Chuan told Season Star and the others that the players could handle construction and that the Night Watchers would remain the main force against Aberrant Beasts.

• Qin Chuan received a notification that his contribution to Dark Night Revival had increased Night Lady’s return progress by 0.2%.

Qin Chuan sent a Camouflage form to infiltrate the Church camp on the Eternal Night Continent, where it made a name for itself by killing Aberrant Beasts. The Church recruited it for a mission against a Beast God Cult camp, but its offered reward was too small for the Camouflage form to accept without complaint.

• The Church established a Teleportation Array to the Eternal Night Continent, and players arrived to find dangerous wilderness and mostly tedious collection quests.
• An unnamed Assassin player accepted difficult Aberrant Beast hunting quests and vanished into stealth.

• The chapter revealed that the Assassin was Qin Chuan's Camouflage form, sent to gather intelligence and infiltrate the Church.
• A Vice Bishop offered the Camouflage form a quest to sabotage a Beast God Cult camp, but the form objected that the reward was too small.

Qin Chuan played the Church of the Hunting Goddess and the Beast God Cult against each other, accepting quests from both to destroy their camps. After collecting both rewards, he left both camps in ruins.

• Qin Chuan negotiated the Church quest reward up to 2,000 gold coins, two Epic-grade equipment pieces, and 200 contribution points, then accepted the quest.

• Qin Chuan attacked the Church camp and told the Vice Bishop that he had taken the Bear-kin commander's offer to destroy it.
• The Church camp collapsed before the players could decide whether to defend it, and Qin Chuan collected the Beast God Cult quest rewards.

Qin Chuan discovered that players’ belief in his Camouflage identity had increased its authenticity, and he developed a plan to strengthen it while gaining a powerful new skill. When Lola proposed building branches to support a magic array that would speed Alesha’s return, Qin Chuan triggered a large-scale quest that pointed toward a major change in Apocalypse.

• Players gathered around Qin Chuan’s Camouflage identity, believing it was a special NPC, and Apocalypse reported that its authenticity had risen by 3%.
• Qin Chuan decided to develop the identity as a potential source of hidden quests and gave it several pieces of Holy Domain-tier equipment.
• Qin Chuan evolved Extreme Cooling to Holy Domain tier, gaining a ten-second burst window with heavily reduced skill cooldowns and immunity to silence.
• Lola told Qin Chuan that the Night Watcher planned to build defensive fortifications and branches to support an ultra-large magic array for Alesha’s return.
• Qin Chuan triggered the team quest Dark Night Revival 2.0, which asked him to help the Night Watcher establish new branches.

Qin Chuan finalized a plan for six Night Watcher branches and recruited his guildmates to build them in exchange for generous rewards. The players realized they had been assigned a massive construction job, while Night Cherry Tangle and Ultimate Is Fun watched from afar and reflected on their luck.

• Qin Chuan and Lola finalized plans for six branches connected to the headquarters by teleportation arrays and underground magic pipelines.
• Qin Chuan summoned his guildmates and offered generous rewards, including higher-tier Dark Night Blessings, for completing the construction quest.
• Qin Chuan assigned Season Star, Destroyer, and the other guild members to dig foundations, obtain stone, set teleportation coordinates, and excavate tunnels.
• Season Star protested that digging was beneath Destroyer's status, but Qin Chuan reassigned it to blow up a mountain for stone, and Season Star agreed to the work.
• The guildmates left in despair, while Night Cherry Tangle and Ultimate Is Fun wondered whether staying behind had spared them the construction ordeal.

Dragon Soaring World and his guild members earned Night Watcher reputation through construction work, then joined Apex at the new branch after learning the Dark Night Blessing had stronger versions. As Qin Chuan turned to hunting hidden enemies and seeking the Ladder to Godhood, Night Cherry Tangle reported that the Beast God Cult had launched another invasion led by a God Child.

• Dragon Soaring World and more than a hundred guild members received letters of introduction after completing arduous work at the Bruno Branch.
• Commander Lola assigned Dragon Soaring World's group a construction quest, where Season Star explained that the Dark Night Blessing had stronger versions beyond the basic one.
• Dragon Soaring World eagerly joined the work and received a work-efficiency hat from Sword Master in the Snow, accelerating construction of the new branch.
• Qin Chuan watched the construction progress, then left to search for hidden enemies and clues to the first step on the Ladder to Godhood.
• Night Cherry Tangle told Qin Chuan that the Beast God Cult had begun another invasion, apparently led by a God Child more powerful than God's Chosen.

Ilena developed a Talent Potion, which raised Qin Chuan’s Sniper God Talent to LV8, while Qin Chuan prepared to face the Beast God Cult’s God Children. He reunited with Night Cherry Tangle and the others, blessed them with Shadow’s Blessing, and set out to handle the God Children himself.

• Qin Chuan learned that the Beast God Cult had sent out a new wave of God Children and decided to join the fight.
• Ilena gave Qin Chuan the Talent Potion she had developed, and he drank it, raising his Sniper God Talent to LV8.
• Ilena explained that scarce materials, especially her teacher’s core ingredient, prevented her from easily making more Talent Potions, so Qin Chuan granted her permission to post procurement quests.
• Qin Chuan left Beli City and met Night Cherry Tangle and the guild members, while Season Star and the others continued farming in the Eternal Night Continent.
• Qin Chuan told the group he would handle the God Children and cast Shadow’s Blessing on Night Cherry Tangle and Ultimate Is Fun, greatly raising their basic attributes.

Qin Chuan led the players into battle against the Beastfolk, but the missing God Child and suspicious timing made him suspect the invasion was a smokescreen targeting Eternal Night Continent. After finding Beastfolk God's Chosen discussing a plan to lure him out, he killed Tusangha and Ge Ruituo, while the others called for Lord Atos to save them.

• Qin Chuan assigned Night Cherry Tangle to lead the players and slipped away to search for the Beastfolk God Child as the invasion began.
• Qin Chuan failed to find the God Child and suspected the Beastfolk were using the invasion as a feint, so he told his Camouflage identity to monitor teleportation activity on Eternal Night Continent.
• Qin Chuan sensed several God's Chosen in the Beastfolk camp and overheard Tusangha question whether they could lure him there.
• Qin Chuan revealed himself, killed Tusangha, and then swiftly killed Ge Ruituo when the Lion Race God's Chosen attacked.
• The remaining God's Chosen panicked, and one called for Lord Atos to save them.

Qin Chuan fought Atos and the Beastfolk God Children, who had lured him into a trap and teleported him to the Abyss. There, he found Dies Martin still alive as towering figures watched them.

• Atos attacked Qin Chuan, who dodged his strikes and killed several God's Chosen while taunting him.
• Atos summoned Beastfolk God's Chosen and explained they had targeted Qin Chuan while Dies Martin was trapped in the Abyss.
• The God Children tried to restrain Qin Chuan with Spatial Lock Crystals, but he evaded them and stole Law Fragments and equipment.
• Atos activated a completed Teleportation Array, sending Qin Chuan and the God Children to the Abyss.
• Qin Chuan saw Dies Martin and the Death Bringer amid the lava and Holy Spirit Warriors, then greeted Dies Martin, who replied that he was still alive.

Qin Chuan, Dies Martin, and the Death Bringers faced a large force of Beast Gods who intended to kill them and seize the Law power Qin Chuan had absorbed. As the Beast Gods prepared to attack, Qin Chuan warned them not to force his hand.

• Qin Chuan learned that the Beast Gods had targeted him, Dies Martin, and the Death Bringers, while the other Demon Gods were too badly injured to help.
• Dies Martin and the Death Bringers secretly agreed that they would cover Qin Chuan’s escape if the battle became hopeless.
• Wilderness Bear Thunder Roar confronted Qin Chuan, who tried to talk his way out of a fight and reminded Thunder Roar that the Beast Gods’ own side had suffered losses first.
• Thunder Roar convinced the other Beast Gods that Qin Chuan held Law power lost by both their faction and the God of the Sky faction, and that taking it could help them win the coming God War.
• As the Beast Gods prepared to attack, Qin Chuan calmly told them to turn back before it was too late and not to force his hand.

Qin Chuan used the revolver left by the Node Avatar to kill the Tiger God with one shot, proving it could annihilate a god’s Divine Sense. The Beast Gods were left shaken as Qin Chuan still had one bullet remaining.

• Thunder Roar mocked Qin Chuan, while Dies Martin urged him to use his secret weapon.
• Qin Chuan drew the revolver and warned the Beast Gods that Thunder Roar’s fate depended on whether they could stop the shot.
• Thunder Roar tried to call off the fight, but the Tiger God shoved him aside and charged Qin Chuan.
• Qin Chuan shot the Tiger God, piercing his defenses and destroying both his divine body and Divine Sense Origin.
• The Beast Gods and Dies Martin realized the revolver could slay gods, and the Beast Gods noted that Qin Chuan still had one bullet left.

Qin Chuan killed the Tiger God with the Revolver, erasing both the god and its Divine Kingdom. As the Beastfolk Gods and Church Gods faced off over the sudden shift in power, Qin Chuan proposed that everyone leave peacefully.

• The Tiger God’s death erased its Divine Kingdom, killed its God Child, Apostles, and God's Chosen, and caused spiritual backlash among the Beastfolk Gods.
• Dies Martin claimed the Tiger God had brought its death upon itself, while Qin Chuan warned the Beast Gods that he still had one bullet left.
• The God of the Sky arrived with more than twenty Divine Phantoms, hoping to exploit the Beastfolk Gods’ weakened position, but neither side attacked.
• Qin Chuan asked Dies Martin if he could kill every god present, then decided they needed to outwit their opponents and escape.
• Qin Chuan called on the gods to stop arguing and offered to mediate, suggesting they all leave separately and pretend nothing had happened.

Qin Chuan used the Revolver and the threat of Shadow Sword to force the Gods gathered in the Void to retreat after he killed the Tiger God. The Church Gods fled, while the Beast Gods remained facing Qin Chuan’s warning.

• Qin Chuan claimed he had called Shadow Sword, and the Hunting Goddess and other Church Gods withdrew rather than challenge him.
• Qin Chuan asked the remaining Beast Gods whether they intended to stay and risk being shot.

Qin Chuan used his last bullet and Tiger God's death to pressure the Beast Gods into retreating, allowing him and Dies Martin to survive. Afterward, Dies Martin rewarded Qin Chuan with Divinity Crystals, Holy Domain-grade equipment, and skill books.

• Qin Chuan taunted Thunder Roar into taking a bullet, but Thunder Roar questioned whether Qin Chuan had more ammunition and began to withdraw.

• Dies Martin produced dozens of skill books, including two universal skill books, leaving Qin Chuan stunned by his generosity.

After Qin Chuan killed the Tiger God, Dies Martin warned him that the Gods would target him and helped him prepare for the danger ahead. Apocalypse scattered the Tiger God’s legacy across the world, and Qin Chuan set out to search for it while Dies Martin secretly revealed how badly he had been injured.

• Dies Martin gave Qin Chuan supplies and warned that the Gods would pursue him, especially if he fired the Revolver’s final bullet.

• Qin Chuan decided to search for the legacy as a supplement to his Divinity, though he intended to follow his own path.
• Qin Chuan left through a Teleportation Gate, and Dies Martin spat out Divine Blood and vowed revenge on the Beast God.
• The Node Avatar sensed that his Revolver had been used, saw the Tiger God’s death, and decided not to interfere with his true self’s choice.

Apex and other players set out to search for the Tiger God's Legacy while Qin Chuan received a commission from the dying Shadow Sword to find it a worthy successor. After the Shadow Sword's final message, a comet appeared to be falling toward Beli City.

• Season Star asked Qin Chuan whether Apex should search for the Tiger God's Legacy, and Qin Chuan told the guild to seek it before grinding Night Watcher reputation.

• Qin Chuan used Shadow Call and learned that the Shadow Sword had struck the Sky God's Divine Kingdom as its final act, then asked him to find a capable successor.
• The Shadow Sword told Qin Chuan to catch it and fell silent as a comet descended toward Beli City.

Qin Chuan caught the Shadow Sword's Inheritance Token after Dies Martin helped it reach the Apocalypse Continent. The God of the Sky sent a God Child and God's Chosen to seize it, and Qin Chuan launched an attack.

• Qin Chuan activated Extreme Cooling and Bullet Time, then attacked the God Child of the Sky.

Qin Chuan fought the God Child of the Sky, who self-destructed when he realized he could not win. With the battle over, Qin Chuan planned to find the Tiger God's scattered Legacy and choose a successor for the Shadow Sword.

• Qin Chuan attacked the God Child of the Sky, whose weakened vessel could not withstand his blows, and rejected his offer to serve the God of Light.

Along the way, Yada Yada discovered that Qin Chuan's dragon and dagger could both speak, and the story left him amazed by his guild leader.
