With no way out of the divine prison and not being able to bear the pain instilled by the needles brimmed with divine energy, the demon emperor Eol was forced to ignite all of his cells and went with a suicidal attack.
His body exploded and released powerful demonic energy that could only heavily crack the barrier due to the sheer dominance of divine energy over an evil attribute like demonic energy.
Seeing that there was nothing but blood spilled inside the barrier, she dismissed her technique and let out a smile of satisfaction, "Okay, my job is done here. I hope whatever you are planning will turn successful too, Mr. Lu." She mumbled to herself, rekindling her hopes on the human as she realized that everything he had done so far was a giant ploy to defeat the enemies.
Little did she know that this timely ending of her battle would indirectly affect Mark's choice.
Back in the wilderness, Mark was thinking about how to negotiate the terms with the system despite the fact that he thought it was worth integrating the factory in his mind with the real world even if he had to give up the suit. It is not like this celestial-grade suit will be of any use to him in battle.
However, after spending months with the system, he knew that in a deal, he should never accept what the system has to offer.
Just as he was wondering what to ask, Sylvandria's battle came to an end and his mission became a failure as a result.
*Ding! Eol's physical body was destroyed without a trace. Quest "Save Eol" is failed.
*Ding! You receive a new emergency quest, Resurrect Eol.
Quest: Resurrect Eol
Description: With the destruction of his physical body, there was no other way for Eol to revive. The host must obtain the soul that was trapped in a treasure and resurrect him using an inanimate humanoid figure as a host.
Reward: Space station (upgradable)
Accept?
"Rocket launching station disappeared and the system is giving me the Space station? What kind of bullshit play it is playing with me?" Mark was offended at first, but then he thought that he could probably include it in the negotiations as he considered the rocket launching station, not a big reward.
Everyone except for the High Priestess, Mark, James, and Steve knelt down at the same time and cheered, "All Hail the Queen." As a citizen of the Ixitus Empire for a few years and still considers herself a citizen, even Zan Rong followed the same as others.
With a smile on her face, Elowen Silverleaf then rose to her feet and spoke, "Before I address the public, I wish to thank a special person who made this all possible." Several gazes fell upon Mark.
"If she wasn't going to return here, our Savior would have never come to our world. On behalf of all the citizens of the Ixitus Empire, I would like to say thank you to Marina Zan and present this treasure as a reward," Elowen took out an artifact that looked like a fist-sized diamond
The royal elves started murmuring among themselves, the majority of whom agreeing that it is too precious and some were wondering when such a diamond existed in their treasury as they never saw it before.
Mark didn't care at first as it was just a diamond and he was just trying his best to not show his impatience of getting his reward and returning to his world, but then, as Zan Rong stepped forward and took the diamond in her hands, James raised his voice and this gained his attention. Of course, everyone's too…
"Ms. Zan, throw away the diamond. There's something wrong with it," shouted James as he rushed forward. Surprisingly for him, Steve firmly caught his arm with a serious-looking expression.
"What are you doing?" While James asked him, Mark activated his Eyes of God skill and inspected the green-colored diamond that started glowing in Zan Rong's hand.

Cursed diamond of Vexiron
Description: A cursed artifact created by mage Vexiron. Apart from its master, those who touch it will get trapped inside.
Note: It only works on those with cultivations below 10-circle. Destroying the artifact will kill the prisoners too.

By the time he read the details, a powerful suction force erupted from the diamond and absorbed Zan Rong in an instant.
Amid the surprised gazes of the spectators, the princess started laughing as she picked up the diamond, "foolish little human…"
"Your Majesty?" The High Priestess was shocked at Elowen's actions. "What are you doing?"
Tilting her head and coldly looking at Mark, Elowen spoke, "Do you really think you have killed me, human? Whatever you saw was nothing more than a grand illusion created by me."
*Ding!
