Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 191: Chapter 1: Invitation from the Travel Group

Su Xiao puts away the three treasure chests. Just now, many notifications appeared from Reincarnation Paradise. He didn’t check them due to his battle with Ani, but now he finally has time to look.

[You killed ’Reiner Braun’ (Armor Titan Inheritor) and gained 4.2% of the World Source. Now you have a total of 20.6% of the World Source.]

[You killed ’Bertholdt’ (Colossal Titan Inheritor) and gained 4.1% of the World Source. Now you have a total of 24.8% of the World Source.]

[You killed ’Eren Yeager’ (Attack and Progenitor Titan Inheritor) and gained 9.6% of the World Source. Now you have a total of 34.4% of the World Source.]

[You killed ’Ymir’ (Jaw Titan Inheritor) and gained 4.9% of the World Source. Now you have a total of 38.9% of the World Source.]

...

[Due to the simultaneous deaths of more than half of the ’Giant Power Inheritors,’ a mixing phenomenon has occurred with the Power of Giants.]

[Progenitor Titan (initial) is being resurrected ... Error... no suitable vessel found, Power of Giants is collapsing.]

[Warning: Collapse phenomenon has occurred with the rules of the Giant World.]

[Warning: Collapse phenomenon has occurred with the rules of the Giant World.]

[Warning: Collapse phenomenon has occurred with the rules of the Giant World.]

[This Derivative World will undergo a time reset, resetting timeline.]

[Derivative World is collapsing, Hunter please evacuate promptly.]

...

This series of notifications left Su Xiao a bit surprised. He felt as if he had broken the Giant World.

BOOM!

A thunderous explosion sounded from behind, Su Xiao looked back to see a massive amount of ruined buildings rising into the sky.

”Is that... the Inner Walls World?”

Crack, snap.

The ground under Su Xiao’s feet began to crack dryly, and the surrounding flora quickly withered.

In less than five minutes, the grassland where Su Xiao stood had turned into a desert.

The air was filled with yellow, the sky was dark with clouds, and the rumbling of thunder echoed while terrifying lightning flashed among the clouds.

Whoosh~.

A fireball rapidly descended from the sky, trailing a long tail flame, crashing onto the ground with a loud bang.

The island where the Inner Walls World lay shattered into several pieces instantly, and sea water spilled from the cracks of the island.

”Is this resetting the world? Why does it feel like the end of the world?”

Su Xiao felt the ground beneath him constantly shaking. Fortunately, he had already completed the return mission and could return at any time. He was curious to see what would happen to the Giant World.

Crack crack crack...

Suddenly, the sky was filled with great cracks, and Su Xiao looked up.

At this time, a large formation seemed to appear in the sky of the Giant World, formed by space rifts, covering the entire Giant World perhaps.

[Warning: The Power of Space-time is about to invade, Hunter must leave immediately. The survival chance under the Power of Space-time’s invasion is 0%.]

Receiving the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao no longer looked around, escaping was paramount now.

”Return.”

A force of space enveloped Su Xiao, and this familiar feeling made him reflexively cover the back of his head.

Bam.

Su Xiao cursed in his heart, ”Damn it!” as his consciousness dimmed.

Reincarnation Paradise even has the power to destroy worlds, can’t it change the teleportation method?

Su Xiao was filled with resentment in his haze. When he regained consciousness, he was already in his exclusive space, having returned to Reincarnation Paradise.

[Transmission complete, Hunter returns to exclusive room,]

[The exclusive room is an absolutely safe point, no one can enter without the Hunter’s permission]

[Hunter has returned to Reincarnation Paradise, beginning settlement of Derivative World rewards.]

...

After reviewing all his rewards, Su Xiao got up and walked to the bed, collapsing onto it. Ten seconds later, he was fast asleep.

In the Giant World, Su Xiao was mentally and physically exhausted. Although he didn’t encounter any terrifyingly strong enemies, he lost a lot of brain cells.

The Giant world is a place where Su Xiao becomes familiar with battlefield tasks. The task deadlines don’t count, and the map is so big it’s frustrating.

What’s even more frustrating is that there are very few tasks available in the Giant world. Besides the two tasks issued by Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao hasn’t discovered any other tasks.

Apart from the Royal Family inside the walls, he’s interacted with all other important figures, and the story protagonist hasn’t strayed far from him the entire time, like a pendant.

But even so, he still hasn’t received any significant tasks, showing just how few tasks there are in the Giant world.

In such a frustrating derivative world, Su Xiao still managed to find new ways to play.

Su Xiao’s plan was to team up with Reiner and others to head to the Marley Empire. Even if they couldn’t reach the Marley Empire, they would at least pass by Eren’s family’s basement.

Even if there’s nothing in Eren’s family’s basement, Su Xiao can still eliminate a few of the Giant Power Inheritors who sneak out of the city.

Out of the nine types of Power of Giant, he has gathered six, showing how much brainpower he must have exhausted.

...

Ten hours later, Su Xiao slowly wakes up, feeling an intense hunger. After freshening up, Su Xiao leaves his exclusive space feeling revitalized.

In a restaurant run by a Worker.

The restaurant is small, with only three tables, but the decor is very cozy, and the warm tones give off a relaxed vibe.

”Thanks for waiting.”

A cook in her twenties walks out from the kitchen, carrying several plates of meticulously prepared food.

The cook isn’t very tall, but she’s well-proportioned. While not particularly beautiful, her looks grow on you the more you look at her.

The cook’s name is Xia, only a single-character name, and Su Xiao usually settles his meals in Reincarnation Paradise at this restaurant.

”Just got out of the Derivative World? You reek of blood.”

Xia sits across from Su Xiao, supporting her chin with her hands.

Su Xiao frequently visits here, so the two are fairly acquainted.

”Yeah, the Derivative World collapsed, so I came out early.”

Su Xiao picks up a piece of bacon and chews it heartily. Xia’s cooking skills are top-notch, but because the restaurant’s location is out of the way, there aren’t many guests, which is why Su Xiao comes often.

”Collapsed? How could a Derivative World collapse? What on earth were you doing there?”

Xia looks at Su Xiao in shock.

”Sorry. Sorry, I shouldn’t ask about activities within the Derivative World.”

Xia shows a look of apology; it’s taboo to inquire about a Contractor’s actions within a Derivative World.

”Killed a lot of key figures. I was surprised too that the Derivative World would collapse.”

Su Xiao places a bowl of fried sauce noodles in front of him, while Xia begins recounting her experiences in the Derivative World.

”Let me tell you, the Ghouls in the Ghoul world are monsters. If you ever go there, don’t let your guard down. Last time I went to the Ghoul world, I was almost eaten by an A-Rank Ghoul. Those guys are monstrously powerful.”

Xia looks visibly distressed, recalling her experience.

”Is that so? Thanks for the warning.”

Su Xiao thinks to himself that he might not be able to enter the Ghoul world anymore; it’s already been slaughtered by him.

After finishing all the food on the table, Su Xiao lights a cigarette, signaling for the bill.

”That’s a total of 16 Paradise coins, but you can just give me 15; you’re a regular customer.”

Su Xiao trades 20 Paradise coins to Xia. Although she’s a bit of a chatterbox, she’s genuinely kind-hearted.

”This... ”

Xia tries to refuse, but Su Xiao leans back in his chair and waves her off.

Just then, the door to the restaurant is pushed open, and a sharply dressed Contractor walks in.

This Contractor walks with a steady pace, looking to be in his twenties, with a composed and confident smile on his face.

”Hello, Mister Bai Ye. My name is Carl. There’s something I’d like to discuss with you.”

Carl sits in the seat across from Su Xiao, fiddling with a deck of Tarot cards in his hand.

Carl isn’t weak. Su Xiao rarely feels pressure from other Contractors, but Carl gives off a tough, formidable vibe.

”What is it?”

Su Xiao frowns, realizing the other party not only knows his alias but also his whereabouts.

”I’d like to invite you to join the ’Phantom Troupe.’ No need to refuse right away; the troupe’s rules are different from an ordinary adventure group.

The troupe has a maximum of thirteen members, and each time they experience a Derivative World, they don’t all enter the same world.

Moreover, there’s no hierarchy in the troupe, just thirteen numbers. The numbers indicate strength, with lower numbers being stronger. You won’t have to listen to anyone’s orders because the troupe doesn’t even have a leader position.

Even if one day you get into a conflict with a fellow troupe member, as long as you declare war before taking action, the others won’t intervene; we’ll just watch the show.”

After listening to Carl’s introduction, Su Xiao raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat familiar with this Phantom Troupe.

”That’s right, similar to the Phantom Troupe from the Hunter World. That troupe was our inspiration prototype, but compared to the Hunter World’s troupe, ours is more relaxed. Gathering a bunch of monsters together is a pretty good idea.”

Carl smiled more cheerfully.

Su Xiao pondered for a moment, considering the truth of the other’s words.

”Why invite me to join?”

”Because your strength is sufficient. The troupe shares some information and also allows access to certain skills of the adventure group.

But... Although you can fend off the Other Shore Flower Adventure Group on your own, that doesn’t mean you can automatically join us. Come to the Arena with me for a match to determine your placement, and then the troupe welcomes you.”

Carl falls silent, waiting for Su Xiao’s response.

”I’ll think about it and give you an answer within three days.”
