Arc 13Beast Arena and Rabbit God
Qi Si engineered his apparent death, relying on Lin Chen to revive him while Lin Chen challenged the gods and their rules. After surviving the Beast Arena and confronting Chang Xu, Qi Si entered Rabbit God Town, where he uncovered Reiko’s murder and the cycle of sacrifices, then completed the quest to find her remains.
- Qi Si freed the ratmen from their curse with his blood, died as their faith empowered his Scarlet High Priest card, and learned from the red-clothed god that gods were shaped by human desire.
- Lin Chen entered the Beast Arena as Lin Crow, used the ratmen’s support to challenge Nine Provinces, and reached the temple, where the God urged him to kill his teammate and become a god.
- Lin Chen killed and revived his teammate, then entered Qi Si’s Instance and brought him back to life with [Bird-Beaked Doctor], accepting that he would remain behind as a sacrifice.
- Qi Si returned as a being between man and god, defeated Chang Xu with the Sea God Scepter, and negotiated with Li to take Lin Chen as his stake in their bet.
- Qi Si entered Rabbit God Town, replaced Reiko’s prayer ribbon, and fled into the forest with Reiko and Kurokawa Akira, where Reiko became a ghost and Qi Si killed her through a Soul Contract.
- Qi Si learned from Lu Ming and Li Fang that Reiko had been murdered by students and buried by the school, while the scripted persecution could shift between Reiko and Lu Ming.
- Qi Si investigated the Rabbit God’s history and learned that the town’s families had imprisoned it and sacrificed a chosen child every eighteen years.
- Qi Si followed Reiko through the loop, uncovered the linked fates of Reiko, Lu Ming, and Kannagi Shichiro, and completed the quest to find all seven parts of Reiko’s body.
