Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam is currently sitting in the forest on top of a tree with his legs crossed.

He is suppressing all the corruption his body has absorbed since he started fighting in the second floor of the tower. Just like how Hel predicted, it is all maxed out. He needs to suppress it all before he can proceed further.

And he is also in the middle of hunting the wolves. They are tenacious. Sam thought he would be having an easier time if he defeated one wolf after another.

But as he proceeded further, he noticed that it is becoming harder. The wolves are getting more vigilant. They are going a bit defensive and they are becoming more dangerous.

He has to fight harder and plan more to get closer to the wolves now.

He got bitten way too much when he caught the last wolf he killed. The corruption is also making it harder for him to recover. That is why, he focused on the corruption first, so that the recovery will be easy.

He sat on the top of the tree and the he completely erased his scent with a formation to mislead the wolves. They are also on defence, so he doesn't have to worry too much.

As he was meditating to suppress, he suddenly felt a suction force. He disappeared from the spot and he was brought to an empty space. He hurriedly opened his eyes and stood up. He took out his hand guns and got ready to fight.

Those are the things that put least stress on his body, so that is what he chose. He relaxed a bit, when he saw some other players along with him.

Arkiv who appeared next to him is also injured a bit. Sam goes for Noah and Kumar who are panting heavily. Kumar's spear is dripping blood. It is apparent that he was in the middle of a fight and was dragged here.

They were about to speak, before Hel appeared.

"Hello, everyone. Welcome to your first task.

I know you must be expecting this to be a bit later. In fact, originally we thought to have the first task after you broke through to the Divine Plane Cultivation. But unfortunately for you, we changed your mind.

We figured that it is better for you to get some experience while you are all weak and almost on equal grounds.

So, you are welcome.

Now, I don't want to waste too much of time on you guys. Let's just get to the point.

With this first task, you will be officially entering the Divine realms. Of course, you are going to enter the lowest one of them. People with your power level of Peak stage Astral Plane still mean something there.

The strongest people there barely broke through Divine Plane of cultivation. In the Divine Plane of cultivation, they are at the bottom of the hierarchy.

Of course, it would have been better if you could control some Divine Energy at least, but it would take some time. Best of luck with your efforts.

Before I announce the details of the task, I would like to tell you some rules.

Within this task, you have two types of roles. One of them is defense and the rest of them are offence.

One person among you is going to take the defensive role and they will be playing against the remaining six candidates.

Since the risk is higher for the person who is on defense, they are going to get double the reward.

There are some restrictions placed on all of you. One of them is, whatever your current state is, you are going to participate like that for the rest of the task.

The most you can do is recover your energy to your complete state. Your body wouldn't be able to recover from any injury, fatigue or pain that it is currently in. Whatever corruption you have on your body is going to stay like that.

Even the suppressed one.

You will not be able to use all of your arsenal as well. You will be given a choice to select very few weapons that you have in your possession and you have to stick to them for the rest of the task.

The weapons that you have will be evaluated by a system specifically designed for your competition. It will evaluate the weapons and it will try to find a balance between all of you in terms of weapons and equipment.

You can make weapons if you can. But the limitation is that you should at least be able to design the

Even your storage is going to be limited. You cannot extend your storage by acquiring storage equipment from outside. You have to stick to the ones you are arranged with. Of course, you can carry as much stuff as you can on your body, if they are not weapons of course.

You cannot rely on formations too much. The person on defense has much more leeway in this regard. Your individual allowance will be discussed with you.

None of you can use Divine Dimensions or Divine Dimension fragments. You cannot use the Divine weapons you got from the Palace of Inheritance.

You will get the full details later on when you are sent to the place. There are some minor restrictions left.

As for the task itself, before explaining it, let's go through how the reward system works.

Basically, you are not going to gain anything special for finishing the task, even the loot that you can collect from the task is going to be limited to your storage. The weapons, formations or anything else that you might acquire cannot be used.

You can use some wealth that you acquired, but there is going to be a limitation on that too. That is common for all the tasks.

And when you clear a task successfully, you are going to gain a badge.

The badges will be assigned with a numerical value. That is going to be your score. Of course, the number of badges you earned throughout the whole competition is also going to count.

Apart from the task clear badges, there are going to be some special badges in the middle for meeting hidden requirements.

You are going to be eliminated throughout the contest. For every elimination round, the person with the least number of badges will be targeted. They will have to challenge another player. The challenge is going to be randomly selected.

But most of them are going to be one vs one battle in a certain terrain, that would be discussed when the time comes.

Do you have any questions?"

"Why didn't you tell us about the elimination before? You only told us that we needed to clear the towers. There is no other information about that." Sam asked.

"You were also told that everything from now on is out of your control. If you are complaining about this, then you shouldn't have come here. Your gods already have you a chance to get out of this. From now on, there are no fixed rules. You are going to face a lot of spontaneous situations.

So, just shut the fuck up and follow it. You don't have any choice now."

Sam didn't reply to her. His looked at his own body. His situation is extremely dire. He is injured. One of his arms is bitten by the wolf. Some muscle fibers have been completely torn apart.

Then there is corruption. He was in the middle of suppressing it, but he couldn't do it. It is completely running rampant in his body. He is fatigued, exhausted and aching all over.

Most of the limitations are going to deprive him a lot. If he had all of his arsenal at his disposal, he would have been able to compensate with them for these injuries. But now, he cannot do that also.

For the first time, he is thinking that there is a chance that he wouldn't be able to win the task in this competition.

As if that is not enough, there is a chance that he might fall into a defense. If that happens, he would be in twice the trouble.

At that perfect moment, Hel felt the need to reveal the details about their roles.

"Sam, you are the lucky person who gets to be on defense now. And according to the restrictions, you would only be able to use your reaper sword and one of your hand guns. Even for that hand gun you can only use ten bullets.

Anything more than that is illegal.

You will be sent to an area near an organization. An organization that worships me actually. One of their core members will be blessed by me today with a healing technique.

A unique healing technique that uses dark elemental energy instead of light elemental energy. It a special use case for curses and it can be modified to kill people. It is one of the best techniques that I have ever created.

Your task is to make sure that technique doesn't fall into others' hands.
