End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 362

Chapter 362: Chapter 362: The Foreknowledge of the Goddess of Life
When Jeremy was trapped in the special dimension within Mortal Combat, without a single way to escape, the voice of the Goddess of Life suddenly echoed in his mind.

“I sense that your soul has been torn apart! I can assist you! As long as the necessary conditions are met, I can help you reclaim your soul.”

Hearing the Goddess of Life’s voice calmed Jeremy a bit.

“Why are you able to help me get my soul back? Did you foresee this situation long ago?”

Jeremy still felt some concern, so he had to ask the Goddess of Life for more clarity.

The voice of the Goddess of Life echoed once more.

“Back in the Tower of Exile, I sensed that the strength of your soul was insufficient. So, I prepared for this moment long ago. If you can summon me to your location, I’ll be able to help you reclaim your soul.”

Her explanation was certainly reasonable. However, from Jeremy’s perspective, the Goddess of Life’s method seemed nearly impossible to execute.

“Even though I have the gift of The King of Time and Space, I can’t open a portal to bring you here directly. After all, you’re likely within a specific instance right now.”

Jeremy wasn’t just trapped in the unusual space created by [Moon]; he had also confined himself within the unique realm of Mortal Combat. Even with his powers as The King of Time and Space, he couldn’t breach the vast distance in time and space to bring a being as powerful as the Goddess of Life to him.

“You only need to perform the ritual! Have you forgotten the ceremony you witnessed in the mists of history within the Tower of Exile? If you pray for my blessing, I will be able to reach you.”

The Goddess of Life’s gentle voice spoke once more.

Hearing her words, Jeremy finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Alright then! I’ll start the prayer right away! But I hope you’re ready for a battle. [Moon] has been closely watching my every move. If you can help me reclaim my soul, [Moon] might unleash its immense power to attack us directly.”

“I understand! I’ve long been prepared for battle! Begin your prayer, and I shall come to you.”

After making all the necessary preparations, Jeremy began his prayer to the Goddess of Life. Soon, he felt a powerful surge of life force gathering around him, forming an aura that wrapped him in warmth and strength.

In the space not far from Jeremy, threads of green light began weaving together, tracing the outline of a graceful figure. This elegant silhouette, glowing with radiant vitality, could only belong to the Goddess of Life herself.

As her form solidified, an immense wave of life energy surged into Jeremy’s body. He could feel the powerful force seeping into his being, knitting together the fractured pieces of his soul, restoring him from within.

Simultaneously, the bright moon in the sky above grew larger, almost ominously so, casting a cold, silvery light that began to shift, tinged faintly with a soft pink hue. The Moon was changing, transforming into a blood-red moon.

This shift signaled that [Moon], the architect of the apocalypse game, was now about to unleash its full might. The blood moon’s appearance sent a ripple of transformation through all life forms within the strange space [Moon] had created. Every creature, whether from the real world or those summoned by the apocalypse game, began to undergo bizarre mutations, becoming more twisted and fearsome than ever before.

But the power of [Moon] wasn’t limited to the creatures—it was also exerting immense pressure on the unique dimension of Mortal Combat. Fissures began to spider across the fabric of the space, cracks that spread and deepened, threatening to tear the realm apart.

“It seems we’ve finally provoked the architect of the apocalypse game! It’s now wielding its most formidable power! We must act faster!” The Goddess of Life had sensed [Moon]’s reaction and knew time was running short.

With an urgent resolve, she turned to Jeremy, determined to hasten the recovery of his soul. “I’m going to channel an even greater amount of life force into you to reclaim your soul. This might cause you some considerable pain, but I need you to endure it.”

Jeremy braced himself, knowing the infusion of life energy would bring with it intense discomfort. But he remained unfazed—he had experienced far worse agony before. This pain was a small price to pay for survival and freedom.

“I’m ready! Just focus on speeding up the recovery process!” Jeremy’s resolute answer was all the Goddess needed.

Without hesitation, the Goddess of Life poured every ounce of her life force into Jeremy. He could feel each cell in his body pulsating, splitting with frenzied intensity. His very essence seemed to be racing toward completion, every fragment of his soul snapping back into place, mending, becoming whole again.

It was impossible to tell how much time passed, but at long last, Jeremy’s soul was fully restored, entire and strong within him once more.

Jeremy, feeling extremely weak, looked up at the Goddess of Life and spoke with gratitude but urgency.

“Thank you so much for your help! But now isn’t the time to chat. We need to prepare ourselves for [Moon]’s direct attack!”

Together, Jeremy and the Goddess of Life turned their gaze toward the ominous Moon in the sky. In that instant, the special dimension of Mortal Combat was shattered by an overwhelming force.

[Moon] had finally broken through, allowing its power to exert a direct influence on Jeremy and the Goddess of Life.

The Goddess of Life felt her own life force rapidly mutating under the pressure of [Moon]’s power. Strange and grotesque limbs began to sprout from her body, transforming her into an eerie and terrifying sight.

Jeremy’s body, too, began to undergo strange mutations. However, he managed to resist the changes by using his innate power as The King of Time and Space to shield himself from [Moon]’s influence. Despite staving off the worst effects, Jeremy knew that his time was limited.

Grasping his weapon in Mortal Combat, he turned urgently to the Goddess of Life.

“We need to get out of here immediately! But before we leave, I have to find my companion! You should be able to locate her position, right?”

In Jeremy’s mind, it was likely that Bonnie’s soul had also been torn apart by [Moon]. He hoped the Goddess of Life could use her powers to locate Bonnie.

As the Goddess of Life used her life force to stabilize her own body, she nodded slowly.

“I’ve found Bonnie’s location. I will guide you to her.”

Without wasting any more time, Jeremy and the Goddess of Life hastily made their way toward Bonnie’s position. When they finally found her, Jeremy’s heart sank. Bonnie had been transformed, just like the other creatures, into a twisted and horrifying version of herself.

Seeing Bonnie in such a state, Jeremy found himself at a loss for words. He had come here to rescue her, but seeing her like this made him pause.

Though he had saved her life, the circumstances were far from ideal. They had both been ambushed by an enemy, which led to this nightmare.

Jeremy thought of Benjamin. There was no way Benjamin would accept this outcome. If he brought back Bonnie in this grotesque, mutated form, Benjamin would surely be enraged.

Turning to the Goddess of Life, Jeremy spoke with a hint of desperation.

“Can you restore Bonnie to her original state? I can’t bring her back looking like this.”

After pondering the situation for a moment, Jeremy turned to the Goddess of Life and asked directly.

The Goddess of Life nodded.

“I can indeed restore her to her original state! But it will take some time. We need to move away from this dangerous area first.”

With the Goddess of Life’s reassuring response, Jeremy finally felt a weight lift off his shoulders. He immediately activated his innate power, The King of Time and Space.

Using a series of portals, Jeremy quickly transported the Goddess of Life and Bonnie toward the edge of the strange dimension that [Moon] had created. There, they could see a faintly glowing pink barrier—the boundary between this eerie realm and the normal world.

“Do you think you can use your power as The King of Time and Space to get us through this barrier?” the Goddess of Life asked, her voice tinged with concern. Though she was confident in Jeremy’s abilities, she knew this barrier was exceptionally strong.

[Moon] had only recently managed to project its power into the real world, yet the influence it held over this space was formidable.

Jeremy furrowed his brow, considering the task at hand. After a moment, he nodded resolutely.

“Don’t worry! I can use The King of Time and Space to open a portal through it.”

With that, Jeremy closed his eyes, concentrating all his energy. He gathered his strength, then harnessed Mortal Combat’s unique spatial abilities once more. When he overlaid one space on top of the other, a small tear appeared between the two realms.

Jeremy seized upon this rift, widening it into a portal.

“Hurry! Get through the portal—don’t waste even a second!” he shouted to the Goddess of Life.

Though he had succeeded in creating a portal, it was far from stable. They needed to pass through quickly before [Moon]’s overwhelming power could close it.

Without hesitation, the Goddess of Life took Bonnie and stepped through the portal. Just as the portal began to flicker and tremble, Jeremy leapt through as well.

Finally, Jeremy, Bonnie, and the Goddess of Life emerged into a safe zone. For the first time, they could see the full extent of the strange realm [Moon] had constructed, an ominous and twisted landscape sprawled out beneath the blood-red moon.

[Moon] had used its formidable power to transform a vast area into a zone where all life would undergo uncontrollable, frenzied mutations. Jeremy had simply stumbled into this region by chance.

This realization meant that someone else was responsible for the ambush on Jeremy and Bonnie.
