The resurrection process went very smoothly.

When the beam of light dissipated, the three Archangel sat there resting, looking exhausted. Li Wei could feel that his father, who had previously shown no signs of life, was now breathing slightly, just like a living person.

Their complexions, which had been pale at first, began to regain color and become rosy.

Li Wei rushed over and helped his father up.

"Dad, wake up... It's me, Xiao Weizi." As he said this, tears welled up in Li Wei's eyes.

After a while, the old man slightly opened his eyes, looked at Li Wei, and then looked around.

"Who are you? Where's my brat? I clearly heard his voice just now."

For a moment, Li Wei forgot that he no longer looked the same as before, but this was not the time to explain. After finally calming his father down, Amakusa and Liu Piaopiao sat up from the ground.

The two women looked around in confusion. Suddenly, Amakusa jumped up from the ground and shouted, "Damn it, where did that woman go?"

Li Wei knew that the woman she was talking about must be the fox demon from that day.

With a sigh, Li Wei first called Xue Yan, who was waiting outside, in. They were much more familiar with Xue Yan than with him, a complete stranger.

Sure enough, upon seeing Xue Yan, all three of them, including her father, relaxed.

What followed was a long explanation.

So much has happened in the past year. Li Wei was in charge of narrating the events, and Xue Yan would occasionally add her own details, recounting everything she could think of.

The father's expression remained unchanged, but when he looked at Li Wei, there was a hint of emotion in his eyes, as if he still couldn't quite believe that this boy was his son.

Amakusa and Liu Piaopiao, however, looked puzzled.

"You mean... we died, and then were resurrected by the Angel Clan over there?" Amakusa asked, pointing at the three Archangel in the cage, his face filled with disbelief.

Then, she touched her chest and remained silent. Liu Piaopiao, standing beside her, was also clearly lost in memories.

In their memory, it seemed that they had just fought that ridiculously strong fox demon yesterday, and then they seemed to have fallen asleep. They never expected this outcome.

As for Li Wei, it took them a long time to gradually accept him. After all, even though his appearance was different, his way of speaking and doing things had not changed.

After a brief rest, Li Wei handed the three Archangel captives over to the three Old Ghost. According to the Blood Demon, he knew a secret demonic technique that could refine the three Archangel into puppets, allowing the three of them to possess these three bodies.

Looking at the three ghosts who were trying to curry favor with him, Li Wei nodded and let them go. Of course, Li Wei also handed over the corpse of the dead administrator in the Copper Pot to the three ghosts to deal with.

During this time, Li Wei frequently sought out the Behemoth King to learn from and spar with him. The Behemoth King was amazed by Li Wei's sudden increase in strength, saying that Li Wei's power was already 30% of his own. Of course, the Behemoth King also gave Li Wei a lot of advice on how to use this power, and now Li Wei can compress the power into his body when not in combat.

The Angel Clan ultimately did not clash with the Behemoth. They were wise; if they had clashed with the Behemoth, the Angel Clan would have been at a disadvantage, attacked from both sides.

These messages were of little use to Li Wei. Three days later, Li Wei led his companions out of the Level 7 Illusion Realm and back to the real world's Three Heroes City.

Zheng Yutong and Nina also returned from the forced mission and were overjoyed to see the resurrected Amakusa and the others. That night, Li Wei drank a lot of wine, which was unusual for him, and slept straight through until noon the next day.

The Three Heroes City, now accommodating hundreds of thousands of people, was already overburdened despite being a level 4 town. Li Wei simply summoned the Destroyer's City, which hovered above Three Heroes City as the new city lord's mansion, since the castle was of little use in the mission.

The search for the 'Superior Darksteel,' the item needed for the Devouring skill, also progressed slowly, or rather, made no progress at all. An Hei speculated that this Superior Darksteel, like the Perfect Rank Quest Badge, was something obtained from the quest world.

Li Wei had wanted to ask the Main God several times how to obtain this 'Superior Darksteel', but just as the Main God had said, there was no response. It seemed that the main Li Wei would not re-establish contact with Li Wei until he reached S-rank.

With less than a day until the next mandatory mission, Li Wei decided to stop thinking about anything. After a secret tryst with Zheng Yutong in the city, he waited for the mandatory mission to begin.

As for the remaining three Dragon Jade pieces of 'Dragon Power', we can only wait until this mandatory quest ends before searching for them.

"The fourth Dragon Jade is in the head of the Zerg dragon Boer in the StarCraft universe... The fifth Dragon Jade is in the head of Onyxia, the Black Dragon Princess, in World of Warcraft... The last Dragon Jade is in the head of the Sacred Dragon Gaia in the Heroes of Might and Magic universe... The easiest one to obtain should be the one from the Zerg Dragon Jade."

Li Wei glanced at the countdown on the Black Paper and sat quietly, waiting for the teleportation time to arrive.

Before this, Li Wei had already said goodbye to Zheng Yutong and the others. Because he was carrying out a Destroyer- level mission, which was much more difficult than that of ordinary Reincarnators, this was the reason why Li Wei did not take them with him.

Finally, the mission time arrived, and Li Wei was teleported into the mission world.

This teleportation seemed to take a very long time.

Li Wei knew clearly that he silently counted more than 100 seconds before he regained his sight.

Then, I saw a metal wall and heard the distinctive sound of an air conditioner.

"Where am I...?" Li Wei shook his slightly dizzy head, his eyes wide open.

The place where he was located was a very spacious barracks.

Yes, although this barracks is very high-tech, it is still a barracks, and a standard military barracks at that.

The rows of metal bunks and the people lying on them clearly told Li Wei this, but more importantly, Li Wei found a metal tag around his neck that read 'Seventh Ground Combat Squad, Lieutenant Li Wei'.

Looking at the sleeping people, Li Wei also noticed the same brand.

The entire barracks was very quiet at the moment; the snoring of some people could be heard as they slept soundly.

Li Wei sat quietly in his room, pondering a question.

This mission's teleportation time was noticeably longer, which was definitely a problem. However, after checking his body, Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief; all his abilities were still intact, providing him with the safest guarantee.

So, all that's left is to analyze this mission.

Undoubtedly, this is a very high-tech place. You can see that the ceiling, floor, and walls are all made of some kind of alloy, making them very sturdy. Some light-emitting tubes, possibly for lighting, are embedded in the walls. There are no key fobs on the metal doors, but there is a glowing virtual panel next to them, which should be used to enter a password to open the hatch.

"This must be some kind of large spaceship," Li Wei thought, sensing that his surroundings were slowly moving.

Looking around at the sleeping people, I saw that they were all wearing the same gray short-sleeved shirts and underwear as me.

"35 people, all male." Li Wei counted and memorized the information. These people had two possible identities: either they were part of the storyline quests in the mission world, or they were from Shadow Street like himself.

Of course, Li Wei leans more towards the second possibility.

It wasn't unheard of for a reincarnator to change their clothes as soon as they entered a mission world. Li Wei hadn't paid much attention to it before, since it was perfectly normal to assume an identity when entering a mission world. However, after learning of the existence of the Main God, Li Wei realized that he had to pay attention to anything unusual.

At first, Li Wei thought that Shadow Street was like a computer that executed certain fixed task instructions when assigning tasks. This computer selected reincarnators and put them into different task scenarios. When a reincarnator completed the main quest, he would be teleported back.

It's a very simple and practical guess.

However, after learning of the existence of the Main God, Li Wei realized that what was hidden behind the mission was not a computer that only knew how to execute programs, but a person with the ability to think.

In this way, the assignment of tasks will be influenced by that person's subjective thoughts and desires. For example, the task of changing the clothes of a reincarnator must have another purpose behind it.

The Main God wouldn't do this for no reason.

Assuming these 35 people are all reincarnators, whether one should stay in the ** or go down to investigate could become a crucial factor in the mission.

Thinking this, Li Wei remained lying on the bed. Since the main quest hadn't been released yet, it was better to wait and see.

Sure enough, not long after, people began to wake up one after another. Judging from their terrified and bewildered expressions, Li Wei knew that his guess was correct; these people were definitely reincarnators.

"Where is this place?" A man in his thirties jumped off the bed. His arm suddenly swelled to more than twice its normal size, and the skin on it felt like hard leather.

A user who has consumed magic crystals.

Li Wei recognized the other party's identity, and several others imitated the middle-aged man, each displaying their special abilities as if they were experiencing a mission for the first time.

"A newbie? How come I'm assigned to the same mission world as a newbie this time?" Seeing that most people had already sat up, Li Wei jumped off the bed as well.
