RWWOKS Chapter 229

This entry is part 230 of 247 in the series The Reincarnation World Where Only I Know the Storyline

“What a beautiful sunny day.”

The golden-haired woman waited at the ambush site, eagerly anticipating that little white mouse walking right into the trap.

The Undying Mark was an exceptionally powerful innate ability, capable of being branded onto different individuals.

Once Constantine died, as long as certain conditions were met, she could revive within the body of the branded slave, even inheriting their powers and talents.

In her own words, this was a divine power—something only gods possessed. No other talent could compare to it.

“I am the invincible being.”

Fang Bo glanced at the woman’s proud expression but turned back to focus on the display screen in front of him.

The group had been waiting quietly for a long time, but they still hadn’t spotted any trace of their target.

If it weren’t for the reliable intel source, they’d have thought they were being played.

“Wait a minute.” Fang Bo suddenly had an idea, his face darkening. “Xiaofei, check the situation on the other side.”

“Got it.” A somewhat dimwitted reincarnator named Xiaofei stepped forward, attempting to contact the base via the communicator.

As soon as the connection was established, the sound of fierce fighting echoed through the receiver.

“Damn it! Get back here right now! These bastards actually found us!” Randy’s furious roar was unmistakable.

To avoid a repeat of their previous failure, Fang Bo had personally led the team, and almost all of their elite experts had been mobilized.

Even if Number Seven had brought Iori Yagami along, the formation they had set up was more than enough to wipe out that top-tier fighter.

Without this level of strength, who would dare to try and seize Orochi’s power?

However, none of them had expected that the enemy would use a diversion tactic, luring them out with a false piece of information.

“Careless,” Fang Bo muttered as he slowly stood up from the ground.

Even a patient person has a breaking point. After being toyed with by a little white mouse multiple times, his temper was starting to fray.

“Xiaofei, go and delay them. We can’t let these bastards get away!”

“Understood.”

Xiaofei, the reincarnator, stepped into the open field and spread his arms wide, assuming an exaggerated stance.

“Divine power, invincible! Transform!”

In the blink of an eye, a single-person combat flight suit was fully equipped on his body.

The jet thrusters emitted a blast of heat, and Xiaofei shot upwards like a rocket, disappearing into the sky.

“Hope I make it in time.”

The other reincarnators lacked flight capabilities and had to rely on a transport aircraft to rush back to the base.

By the time the clunky metal transport took off, Xiaofei was already completely out of radar range.

Meanwhile, at the Mercenary Base…

“You bastard!” Liana’s eyes blazed with fury as she glared at the commander.

She never imagined that the traitor would turn out to be their most respected commander.

It wasn’t until Hardy Lan subdued the commander that they realized this person was no longer the person they once knew.

Facing the group’s disbelief, the false commander didn’t hesitate to confess. “That’s right. Your commander is dead, and I’m the one who killed him. I must thank you all, though. Over the years, you’ve eliminated many of Nests’s competitors. Hahahaha.”

Liana felt her head ringing, her eyes immediately turning crimson.

This frightened everyone in the room.

If she went berserk, none of them might have the ability to stop her.

“Hey!” Ralph tried to step forward to intervene, but Clark held him back with a firm grip.

“Let her vent.”

If Hardy Lan was like a father to her, then the commander had been her most beloved teacher.

With bloodshot eyes, Liana leapt into the air, striking at her target’s heart like a lightning bolt.

MAX Super Special Move: V-shaped Golden Saw!
“I’ll make you pay in blood for your treachery!!!”

Meanwhile, Fang Bo, who was engaged in combat with the enemy, received a prompt notification.

[Hidden Task: The Hidden Traitor (Completed)]

[Calculating results… Generating rewards…]

[Based on your contribution, you may choose two rewards from the following options!]

[Option 1: 1000 Plot Points]

[Option 2: 3 Attribute Points]

[Option 3: Ender Creator]

[Option 4: Earrings Bomb ×8]

[Option 5: 12 Merit Points (Rare)]

Ender Creator: C-grade active skill. Consumes 8 Mental Power to unleash a powerful attack that restores 20% of the damage dealt as health.

Earrings Bomb: A special item that deals a fixed 80 points of damage.

Fang Bo chose Option 2—the 3 Attribute Points, adding one point to his Strength. This officially made him a Reincarnator with Maximum Attributes in Five Elements.

He saved the remaining two points for later, planning to distribute them once he completed the Golden Main Quest.

As for the remaining rewards, Fang Bo hesitated for a moment.

Hardy Lan’s signature skill, Ender Creator, was a powerful tool, dealing massive damage while recovering health—certainly a must-have for any close-quarters reincarnator. Fang Bo couldn’t deny feeling a bit envious.

The Earrings Bomb wasn’t bad either, dealing a fixed 80 points of damage, which could be very useful if used correctly.

However, in the end, Fang Bo opted for the 12 Merit Points.

With his Nightmare Transformation ability, Fang Bo no longer lacked usable skills.

Any special moves he had imitated through the Memory Armor could manifest in dreams, and by repeatedly using them, they would likely become abilities he could master himself.

While the Earrings Bomb was powerful, it didn’t compare to the value of the 12 Merit Points.

Opening his personal information list, Fang Bo admired his new stats as a reincarnator with maxed-out attributes in five elements.

—-

Health: 370/370 (+180)
Status: Healthy
Strength: 28 (+9)
Constitution: 25 (+6)
Agility: 25 (+6)
Mental: 36 (+17)
Perception: 25 (+6)
Merit: 94
Attribute Points: 2

Unless he acquired higher-value equipment, Fang Bo’s attributes wouldn’t change in the near future.

He closed the information list and looked back at the scene of battle.

Using the Messenger Paper Plane‘s auto-tracking function, he successfully located Olsen’s whereabouts.

Messenger Paper Plane: A special item that allows communication with designated reincarnators.

The success of the hidden mission meant that the enemy’s main forces had been lured to a false location, thanks to the deceptive intelligence.

Initially, the mercenaries were skeptical of Fang Bo’s testimony. It was only through his persuasive eloquence that Hardy Lan decided to implement a plan.

The plan was simple: spread false intelligence and see if it would leak through the commander. If Nests took the bait, it would confirm that the commander was the traitor—there would be no room for denial.

The plan worked. Fang Bo’s strategy successfully completed a hidden mission from thousands of miles away.

The only pity was that he hadn’t captured the traitor himself. If he had, the mission’s rewards would undoubtedly have been more generous.

Following the Messenger Paper Plane to the correct location, Fang Bo used his Shikigami Summon ability to deploy ghost spiders to scour the vast base for his target.

Although he hadn’t found Olsen yet, he came across a familiar face.

[ID 14926 (Tashan)]

[Attack Inclination: High]

[Attribute Inclination: Constitution, Strength]

[Trait: Shield Bearer]

[Threat Assessment: Feeble]

Shield Bearer: When equipped with a shield, reduces damage taken by an additional 12%.

It was Randy, the reincarnator who wielded a massive Frost Tower Shield. Fang Bo had encountered him in the One Piece world, where he had been a subordinate to Olsen—submissive, obedient, and without the courage to disobey.

Now, however, Randy seemed much more imposing.

“It really is you!” Randy’s face turned grim.

He clearly remembered Fang Bo. In the One Piece world, this guy had repeatedly thwarted their plans and left the team in shambles.

Back then, Randy had suspected that this newcomer would one day rise to fame in the reincarnation space. What he hadn’t expected was how quickly Fang Bo would grow.

He had even managed to kill a Chosen One that Randy could only look up to.

Now, facing him suddenly, Randy didn’t know how to react.

Should he beg for mercy or face his death with dignity?

Before he could decide, a golden chain shot out like a snake, wrapping tightly around him.

—-

[ID 14926 is bound by Anode Lock. Strength attribute check in progress…]

[Check failed. You are bound for 7 seconds, unable to move, equip items, or use tools.]

—-

“W-what?” Randy was stunned.

He had encountered binding items before, but what baffled him was his failure to pass the Strength attribute check.

Could it be that this guy’s Strength attribute was higher than his own?

Golden ripples radiated outward as the Kusanagi Sword streaked through the air like a meteor, piercing straight into Randy’s abdomen.

—-

[Your artifact dealt 184 critical damage to the target.]

28 (Base Attribute) + 20 (Equipment Bonus) + 12 (King’s Authority) + 32 (Weapon Attack) = 92 base damage.

Artifacts had an incredibly high critical damage multiplier, so this strike inflicted a terrifying 184 damage.

Randy’s primary attribute was Constitution. Even with his array of equipment bonuses, his total health was only 280.

One strike had wiped out two-thirds of his HP.

—-

Watching the blood gush from Randy, Fang Bo felt a surreal sense of detachment.

To be fair, Randy was the type of opponent he should have been facing under normal circumstances.

If strictly analyzed, this guy had more experience in narrative worlds than Fang Bo, yet seemed comparatively weaker.

“Despite all your experience, it feels like I’m just bullying a child.”

Drawing the Butcher’s Cleaver from his treasury, Fang Bo decided to test its damage output.

Consuming 4 Mental Power, he activated the weapon’s special effect.

Under Randy’s terrified gaze, the blade fell.

—-

[You activated Gravity Slash. Your next attack deals 120% of Strength as damage.]

[Your attack struck the target, dealing 96 slashing damage.]

[Attack triggered a Bleed effect, dealing 5 bleeding damage per second for 10 seconds.]

—-

“S-save me…” Randy stammered.

As the blood poured from his wounds, Randy slowly succumbed to death. From start to finish, he hadn’t managed to launch a single threatening attack.

This wasn’t a fight—it was slaughtering a lamb.

—-

[You killed reincarnator ID 12047, earning a personal slaughter chest.]

[Opening ID 14926’s slaughter chest…]

[You received 1200 Plot Points.]

[You received Frost Tower Shield.]

[You received Red Potion ×2.]

—-

Red Potion: Restores 40 health points.

It really was a small potion—hardly enough to make a difference for someone like him.

Initially, Fang Bo hadn’t expected much, but the shield Randy had been carrying turned out to be an unexpected treasure.

—-

Name: Frost Tower Shield
Grade: Epic
Type: Two-Handed Tower Shield
Durability: 480/480
Attribute Boost: Strength +2, Constitution +2
Usage Requirements: Strength 18, Constitution 20
Effect: Ice Barrier

Origin: Warbringer Jaina
Evaluation: Be cautious—it won’t protect you from attacks from behind.

Ice Barrier (Active Skill): Consumes 4 Mental Power to construct an ice crystal wall with 400 durability points.

—-

“Finally, some usable defensive gear.”

While Fang Bo wouldn’t equip the shield himself, adding it to the King’s Treasury would allow him to activate its Ice Barrier whenever necessary.

Judging from the description, the barrier’s coverage was likely substantial and could be used to block large-scale AOE attacks in the future.

With a faint golden glow, the Frost Tower Shield was stored in the treasury.

At that moment, a message arrived from his ghost spiders: they had found Olsen’s location.
