Three mirror images, bound by blood and fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Orion tore the scroll apart, learning the skill immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reading the description of [Triple Mirror Image], Orion frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skill was somewhat complex, requiring him to experiment and explore its true potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The description reminded Orion of the three identical Wolf Kings he had encountered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this wasn't something he needed to rush. He had plenty of time to figure it out later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shifting his focus, Orion turned his attention to the Survivor's Platform, leaving a message for Scarecrow to express his interest in purchasing food supplies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting for a while, there was no response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Winter's over, and Scarecrow's gone offline again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion sighed, pondering for a moment before sending a message to Arthas instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there a way to bring someone back to life in this world?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The question stirred something deep within Orion, leaving him restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Arthas replied quickly. \"We were all destroyed in a great calamity, yet here we are, resurrected. Haven't you already been brought back to life?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthas's response sent Orion into deep thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's true. If even I was resurrected, then what's impossible?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's previous life on Earth had been in the real world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he didn't know if Earth had somehow merged with this world, the fact that survivors like him were being resurrected was already a miracle in itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthas's message seemed to be telling him: If you believe, then it's possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long silence, Orion clarified his question further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can we resurrect someone ourselves?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This question carried a deeper meaning, one Orion was certain Arthas would understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The stronger you are and the more you know, the greater your chances.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthas's response wasn't a direct answer, but it wasn't a denial either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion exhaled slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No confirmation, no rejection—this was the greatest hope he could ask for, wasn't it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It all depended on how he chose to interpret it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After another long pause, Orion sent another message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone close to me has been dead for some time. Do you have a way to bring them back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With my current abilities, true resurrection is impossible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about in a different sense?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is a way—to transform them into an undead being. For example, a lich… or something like me, a skeleton.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion let out a long sigh, disappointment and frustration weighing heavily on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must understand,\" Arthas added, \"that perhaps even you and I are not truly resurrected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This final message hit Orion like a falling apple, striking him with sudden clarity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that moment, everything made sense, and he felt a wave of acceptance wash over him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If even I am like this, why should I worry about others?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion sat in silence for a long time. As dawn approached, he finally replied to Arthas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Recommend a method to me—something that can awaken a soul.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's request had changed. It was no longer rigid or demanding perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Awakening a soul is no small feat,\" Arthas replied. \"In this world, when life ends, souls are drawn to the gods.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To retrieve a soul from a god, given your current status, the best method is through sacrifice—offering more and higher-quality souls to the deity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, some gods may prefer blood, while others may demand faith.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I must warn you: using faith to exchange for a soul is the easiest yet most troublesome method. I strongly advise against it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with this message, Arthas sent detailed instructions for a sacrificial ritual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks. If you're charging a consultation fee, just add it to my tab.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion waited for a reply, but none came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph. Clever bastard. A favor without a price is the hardest to repay,\" Orion muttered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After giving Rolan some guidance, Orion returned to his tent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lilith handed him a meal of roasted meat and porridge, which he devoured hungrily. After wiping his mouth, he pulled out the frost giant egg from his belongings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This was found inside a frost giant's corpse. It's yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lilith accepted the egg, her expression a mix of surprise and delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, she gasped in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An Alpha-level pet egg?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion nodded, smiling without saying a word, watching Lilith with curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Taming Scroll Orion had obtained earlier hadn't been given to anyone else—it had been handed to Lilith.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was why she was able to sense the egg's Alpha-level nature after a brief examination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is your first pet. Do you like it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's tone carried a hint of pride, as if he wanted to show off in front of his woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lilith, understanding his intent, leaned in to kiss him passionately. Then, without hesitation, she stripped off her clothes and offered herself completely…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time flew by like an arrow, slipping away unnoticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the face of time, all living beings were equal, pushed forward relentlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A month passed in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One day, inside the chieftain's tent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chieftain, the number of live captives you requested has been gathered. They've all been delivered to the underground fissure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A month ago, Orion had approached Rendall with a peculiar request: to capture a large number of live creatures and deliver them to the underground fissure guarded by the cave spiders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendall, assuming it was some strange preference of Lorelia's, didn't think much of it and accepted the task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the next month, the hunting party and cannon fodder troops worked together, not only capturing fleeing icefield snow wolves and frost giants but also hunting high-tier beasts from the Black Forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took an entire month of relentless effort to meet Orion's demand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you sure the number is exactly ten thousand?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. One-third are icefield snow wolves, one-third are frost giants, and the remaining third are beasts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion nodded, his gaze drifting toward Blackstone City outside the tent, his expression contemplative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're not on rotation tonight, are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, I'm not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendall looked puzzled, unsure why Orion was asking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll take the rotation tonight. Why don't you come by and chat with me for a while?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh… sure!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendall was clearly confused, but he agreed without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dace, send word to Onyx and Thundar.

It wasn't unusual for Orion to oversee training during his rotation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Rendall was curious to see how much the cavalry unit had improved after a month of training.\u003C\u002Fp>",1149,"2026-05-29T15:49:11.112Z","2026-06-01T04:29:39.741Z",1,"novelbin.me","f0e77a4245773c21c9d97bcd0eb9aab7d42fc7d4f87a8be91567601d78bdb99c","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-51","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-203",1606,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftitan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-cover.jpg"]
