After Death, I Becam Chapter 14 – Endless Hall

Jiang Bei had serious doubts about this place that was supposed to be his own bathroom.

What ca into view was a floor paved with tal, an exaggeratedly large hall, a round table with several chairs, and a bizarre crystal ball-like device placed in the hollow center of the table.

He couldn't help but step back and confirm multiple tis that this entrance was indeed his own toilet, then forcibly dragged Xiao Qi, who was happily watching ani in the living room.

"What did you do to my toilet?"

"Oh, I just set this door as the entrance to the endless hall. It's just a simple dinsional fold," Xiao Qi replied.

"Why does sothing so illogical sound as simple as setting a shortcut on a browser when it cos out of your mouth..." Jiang Bei muttered.

He returned to the hall and approached the control panel, feeling a bit dreamy. He reached out and touched the crystal ball, and the dim ball instantly lit up. It was as if the core of the ball had been illuminated by colorful lights, refracting in a dazzling array of colors, like a rainbow condensed in a marble.

"Identifying... Identity verification passed. Welco back, Eternal Sentinel," a crisp and pleasant female voice sounded from the system.

Jiang Bei cast a puzzled look at Xiao Qi beside him. "Eternal... Sentinel?"

"That's the na of the identity you inherited. Anyway, now you have unlocked the permission to access the endless hall..." Xiao Qi explained.

"Access restricted." As if slapping her face, the system issued a prompt tone without giving her any face.

Jiang Bei looked at Xiao Qi again. "Only partial permissions. The rest will gradually unlock as your treasury value increases."

"So, what is the endless hall? Is it like a lonely fortress?" Jiang Bei asked.

"The second generation of Sentinels created the 'Endless Alliance,' where so extraordinary beings with similar aspirations gathered and fought side by side... Of course, that's all ancient history now. Anyway, this place is ours now, and it doesn't seem like there are any leftovers for others," Xiao Qi said.

The projection of the operating interface appeared on the crystal ball. Jiang Bei swiped twice and found the button for the potion column in the inventory option. There was only one item in it, the "Basic Transcendent Potion."

"Wait, is this the potion I was thinking of?" Jiang Bei imdiately looked at Xiao Qi.

"The potion for advancing to Transcendent? Yes," Xiao Qi said. "The so-called 'Transcendent' is essentially a miracle that traces back the phenonon of transcendence on the human body through the dium of fragnts from the abyss, using secret rituals.

According to the settings of the endless hall, the owner of the hall—now you—can unlock the basic transcendent potion when your treasury value exceeds one thousand. The owner can freely distribute it to other mbers of the alliance.

There are three remaining potions in the inventory. But if suitable materials are collected later, the system in the potion inventory can synthesize more."

"I see."

Jiang Bei glanced at the screen displaying his treasury value, 1002, just breaking through one thousand.

"The other potions behind are all black."

He noticed that there were more potion options behind, but they were all locked and couldn't be viewed.

"Yes, you need a higher treasury value to access them."

"So, as long as I take enough potions, I won't need to rely on hotspots to level up and beco as strong as you?" Jiang Bei suddenly had a bold idea. "By the way, what about your permissions? Maybe you can help

exchange for so more powerful potions in advance?

You know, I'm currently lacking in abilities. Maybe I won't be able to wait for the subsequent unlocks..."

"I wish I could, the stronger you beco, the faster I can recover," Xiao Qi innocently expressed her helplessness. "But I told you before, we are now one entity. In the recognition of the endless hall, we are the sa person, the common owners of this place.

So, my permissions are as high as yours. If you can't access sothing, neither can I."

"It's almost like we're entering our common property," Jiang Bei found another blind spot. "Wait, you said we should be considered the sa person... Does that an if you go out and earn treasury value, it will count towards ?"

This activity of charging for three minutes and being idle for half a day always annoyed Jiang Bei. But he thought that this superhuman girl should probably not have this restriction if she personally took action.

But she shook her head.

"Did you forget? Why did I save you in the first place?" she said. "This is not my present world, and I can't move freely here. If I forcefully use my own abilities, I have to pay a certain price.

That's why I need you. You are my hands and feet in this present world. I have to rely on you for everything I want to do."

"Is that so?"

It sounded more and more like being a M78 civil servant. Jiang Bei muttered to himself.

"Well, is it safe? Are there any side effects? Like bleeding from the seven orifices and dropping dead on the spot?" Jiang Bei asked.

To be honest, Jiang Bei was a bit tempted. The superhuman experience card was powerful, but it had ti limitations, and borrowing abilities felt slightly different from becoming stronger on his own. He just didn't know if there were any risks.

Xiao Qi looked at him strangely. "Why would you think that?"

Jiang Bei was taken aback. "Isn't that how the advancent of transcendent is portrayed in movies? Like the super soldier serum, genetic mutation from a spider, gamma radiation... Aren't they all things that only the chosen ones can succeed in?"

"I haven't heard of that..." Xiao Qi said, looking confused. "It's just a basic advancent, so there shouldn't be much risk. It's not dangerous, at most, after drinking it, you might feel a bit dizzy and tired. Just sleep it off."

"Is it that good? No risks at all?"

Jiang Bei beca even more tempted. He suddenly had the urge to imdiately exchange for a dose and give it a try. But he restrained himself. Although Xiao Qi said it was safe, she sotis seed unreliable. He decided to at least see what else was available in the system before making a decision.

Many rooms were currently locked and couldn't be viewed with their permissions. He scanned around and found that the unlocked options were the potion inventory, training room, and weapon arsenal.

There weren't many weapons unlocked in the arsenal, and currently, there weren't many related to transcendent. There were two types of combat daggers, a compact submachine gun, three models of flash grenades, and a large-caliber pistol called the "Lightning Eagle."

The next available function he found was a button called "Publish."

According to the description, this function was used when alliance mbers completed certain tasks. The hall could record the process of each mber's task and promote and publicize the achievents they achieved.

A quick look at bit.ly/3iBfjkV will leave you more fulfilled.

In simple terms, it was publicity. There were also optional branches for the type of publicity, one called "Targeted PUSH," one called "Platform-limited PUSH," and one called "Multi-channel PUSH."

He didn't know what the specific operation of this thing would be like, as there was no clearer description. But based on the definition of how he accumulated treasury value, Jiang Bei estimated that the level of exposure after showing off should have a considerable impact.

He had previously felt that the way the organization above handled the cover-up of transcendent events was sowhat detrintal to him. Now, this function seed to be able to solve this problem. He could give it a try when he had the chance.

Next, what caught Jiang Bei's attention was the option called "Recruit."

After clicking on it, the first thing that appeared was the words "Recruitable Personnel," but currently, this section was empty. Below that was the words "Personnel Search."

Jiang Bei was a bit confused, so he turned around and brought back Xiao Qi, who was ready to continue watching ani and drinking soda.

"What does this an?"

"It ans exactly what it says," Xiao Qi explained with a slightly unhappy expression, pouting her small mouth. But perhaps because of the snacks, she still patiently explained, "It's the system for recruiting mbers to the alliance.

The leader of the alliance—now you—can assign tasks, distribute weapons and props, and grant or take away their abilities to the mbers.

And the treasury value gains from any activities the alliance mbers engage in will also be added to the leader's treasury value..."

"Wait, what did you say!?" Jiang Bei's eyes lit up. "Does that an, for example, if I have ten people working for

outside, my treasury value gain speed can increase tenfold?"

"Well, in reality, how much feedback is actually transferred to the leader may depend on the situation, and there may be so loss in between... But overall, it's pretty much like that," Xiao Qi replied.

Jiang Bei suddenly beca spirited. This was an unexpected surprise and undoubtedly the most needed function for him at the mont.

He couldn't wait to recruit a hundred or eighty mbers in one go and send them all outside to work tirelessly for him like Jas Bond throughout the year.

He clicked the search button, and the interface changed, revealing a three-dinsional map. Jiang Bei imdiately recognized it as the familiar Kantu City. The pointer scanned the map like a radar, and below it, the words "Searching" were flashing.

Every ti the pointer passed, white dots appeared on the map. They were densely packed, covering the entire area.

"This is an algorithm designed by a very powerful senior in the early days of the alliance. It can search and evaluate personnel on a large scale.

This algorithm can analyze everything about anyone in the present world, both internally and externally. It analyzes a person's past, habits, personality, ntal state, and compatibility with transcendence, comprehensively judging their value to the alliance."

"This is so mysterious. It can even scan the internal aspects?" Jiang Bei was amazed.

"Of course, it's not as difficult as you think in the present world," Xiao Qi explained. "Everyone within the scanning range will be marked on the map. People deed worthy of recruitnt by the system will be marked with green dots, while those with ordinary evaluations will be marked with white dots.

Only those marked with green dots are worth recruiting. But I advise you not to hold your breath because the evaluation criteria of this system are quite strict. It's probably not easy to get a green dot..."

Ding!

The system emitted a pleasant prompt sound.

Among the densely packed white dots on the map, a green dot suddenly stood out.

"We have a recruit!" Jiang Bei's eyes lit up.

Xiao Qi: "..."
