Versatile: Alternate World (Web Novel) - Chapter 685 Aftermath Of The Rebellion
Chapter 685 Aftermath Of The Rebellion
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Loki has escaped successfully after the battle against Bladeheart and the others. Due to the unexpected weapon that appeared, the only reasonable way for him to avoid a certain death is to escape instead of pursuing a more brutal fight. Loki is not a combatant, but a trickster. He will use all the things at his disposal to fight back without needing to fight by himself, which is why he is using a backup body in the first place.
The attack earlier inflicted damage on him despite using the substitute. A weapon made by the gods, even if he is immortal, he still needed to escape as the weapon is not something he can endure even if he used something as a substitute for his body, the wound would make its way to his real body. If the substitute is killed, then his real body will be killed as well. So retreating from a fatal battle was something that was smart for him.
Loki can feel that the weapon is still incomplete but despite its incomplete state, it is already wielding such power enough for him to fear death immediately.
But to think he will find the accursed weapon that devoured multiple worlds, the embodiment of greed itself sleeping inside it, there is no other choice but to retreat as he is more than confident that the guy will never hesitate to kill him. With a weapon capable of rendering his immortality null, it's much better to escape than remain prideful as a god and flee while he still can.
"To think what the sovereign said before was true. Her powers must have returned already for her to be able to properly conduct an accurate prediction of the new world. She should know this piece of news and let her know about it. As for the guy holding that cursed weapon, he can wait."
Loki whistled as he went on his way to report the incident. For Loki, it seems that peace will soon return to chaos soon enough.

The corruption inside the church did not disappear even after the defeat of Loki who escaped and stopped the inevitable fight, afraid of dying after seeing my weapon. Although I don't know his main reason for escaping, seeing the Versatile Weapon seemed to be the main key as to why he decided to escape instead of pursuing the fight. But why though? Unfortunately, the reason why is still unknown.
But thanks to his escaping tactic that occurred in the middle of the boss fight, the reward of fighting the main boss was forfeited aside from the experience given to us which for me, is just a drop of water into the sea. However, I doubt that was the end of my and his meeting again. If he appeared in the Expedition storyline, he must be also an important figure in the main story as well.
With the battle finished, the only thing left we do is to wait for everyone to wake up from remaining unconscious. As for us who are awake, we are currently doing different things. Tsuru and Sigma are currently exploring the place while Atlas returned to the Summons area. After he was almost killed, he can't wait to lie down and have a good sleep to recover. As for me, I inspected the armor of Tsuru, Sigma, and Atlas to see whether they need immediate repair or not.
It took at least 2 in-game hours before they all woke up one by one. Harmless Sparrow is first followed by the others. Everyone has no idea what happened and what they did as they got blacked out all of a sudden and they can't log out to reset the situation, they are stuck with waiting until they managed to regain control of their bodies once more. The brainwashing is now clear and they are back to normal. I also finally get to know the feeling of the brainwashing effect after they described it to me.
After a while, Sigma and Tsuru returned.
"Looks like everyone is awake now. Is everyone alright? We almost killed you all due to the things your bodies have been doing so but since you all have returned to normal, guess it is time to get out of this rotten place. We have not seen any good POIs here, it's just the same church as before, just distorted and expanded," Sigma sighed.
"How are they, Bladeheart? Are they in trouble?" Tsuru asked.
"No. But they will have to log out of the game after the situation has been taken care of. We need to return to the others and report the situation. We also need to know whether Alain returned as well."
After a long day of preparation, the battle ended and the expedition has come to an end.
In the end, I didn't even get to call the dragon for help but I am happy that he is still alive even after the expedition ends.
When we returned, Alain is nowhere to be seen but the soldiers and the Legion of angels are now there and was about to arrest everyone when we arrived which stopped the arrest completely. With our testimonies and the incriminating evidence which is the church, Alynna was furious about it and ordered an immediate purge of traitors in the Legionnaire.
Although we saved the day, we still disrupt the peace so we are imprisoned for half a day as punishment. But it was a light punishment that was given to us because of the situation. Without our rebellion happening, the continent would not know of the situation and would still continue to patronize the pope.
By the way, regarding the Pope, he didn't die in the battle which ended up in prison and waiting for the trials of his wrongdoings as he was captured and interrogated by Alynna. Due to the evidence pointing at him and most victims pointing at him as the culprit, he will be judged and tried for the sins he made against the people.
Our faction won and despite being labeled as rebels before, we are regarded as the heroes who saved everyone from "blindness" and cured them of their sight due to the recent events, and thus, the end of the expedition came in.
.......
I have logged out from the game already. The pain in my body from playing the game for too long is taking a toll already. But thankfully, the expedition has ended. Although we have yet to see the final scene, I am wondering whether Alain is alive. Loki mentioned he was dead already but I doubt it. This ending has so many loose ends and I think once the players are now ready to reach the continent, the quests will start rolling in.
Oh well, with that said, one of my goals is now done plus I managed to humiliate Kazuki as well as he failed with the expedition and the reward that powered him up a lot didn't even get rewarded to him. So I guess that is a big win in my book.
Now that things are over, perhaps it is time for me to focus on some of my stagnant affairs now.
