"Raaah!"

Like a mad beast, Ambrose lunged forward against the increased gravity.

A layer of frost appeared on his face, and the small hair strands on his almost-bald head froze altogether.

Smash—he smashed his head into an invisible wall.

However, it was simply the 29-meter mark, which had such heavy gravity that he couldn't even enter!

"Graaa!" With a mad cry, he smashed his fists forth and smashed his whole body against the invisible barrier, determined to break through the gravity!

But no matter how hard he tried, the barrier remained unyielding.

'The gravity at the 29-meter mark is so heavy that even a boulder would get crushed like a tin can.' The Wisdom King thought and glanced at the incense stick.

The flickering flame was about to die off!

"Haaa!" Ambrose reeled in both his bloodied fists and let out a powerful roar.

His muscles bulged, and his eyes turned red as he punched through the wall of gravity.

As soon as his arm entered the area of the 29-meter mark, his bones crushed under the immense pressure.

"Kyaa!" A female villager screamed as the sound of bones cracking echoed through the air.

"Haaa!" Then he punched his second arm through the wall of gravity.

It suffered the same fate of being crushed to pieces.

Now, with no legs to move forward and two broken arms, there didn't seem to be any way for him to move forward.

However, then he screamed.

"Self-Possession!"

He used self-possession for the fourth time!

'This is dangerous!' The soul shouted inside Ambrose's head, but he didn't respond because the power of Kill had completely engulfed him. 

He was completely consumed!

"Ability: Floating!"

With a hoarse voice, Ambrose screamed and began flying through the heavy gravity. He smashed through the invisible barrier, finally entering the 29-meter mark!

All of his bones and organs broke in an instant as deathly pressure instantly engulfed his entire body. 

He felt like a tin can that was getting pressured by an unstoppable force.

"One more meter!" The villagers screamed.

The Honorables shot to their feet with shock flashing across their faces.

The small flickering flame turned smaller and smaller, burning the last tiny piece of the incense stick.

It was only seconds away until the incense stick was fully consumed by the fire.

'Come on!' The Wisdom King clenched his fist as he saw the last piece of the incense stick turn to ash.

"Haaaa!"

Then, a shout that reached the skies filled the air.

Ambrose, with his broken body, fell forward through the heavy gravity.

Thud—he hit the ground, and his eyes turned white.

Every villager stood up and looked at the scene with trembling lips.

"H-he did it..."

"He did it!"

Clap—loud applause filled the air with screams of awe.

The place where Ambrose fell was at the thirty-meter mark.

He had officially reached the finish line!

The incense stick finished burning and turned into ash.

Then the wind came and carried the ashes away.

"Huff..." The Wisdom King loosened his fists, his palms had turned white.

The Honorables, all sat down with shocked expressions on their faces.

Zhen, shot to his feet and rushed to the fallen young man and checked his pulse.

"He has passed out." He turned to the Wisdom King and nodded. "I shall take him to the village doctor."

The Wisdom King nodded.

After Zhen carried Ambrose away, the Honorables all turned to the Wisdom King.

"He did it..."

"He is now Honorable."

"Yes." The Wisdom King nodded. "However. He shall not stay in the village."

"What do you mean?" Honorable Fang asked with a frown. "He completed the test."

Before, Fang believed all players to be greedy, murderous people who were incapable of being loyal.

However, this unbelievable sight truly impressed him.

The player gave up on his own two legs and destroyed his entire body to pass this test.

They all still thought he was doing this for the position of the Honorable, which was not exactly true.

He didn't even know that he would become Honorable if he passed the test!

"He did, and he is always welcomed back here." The Wisdom King opened his wise eyes and looked at the crowd that had gathered. "However, he has stuff that he needs to accomplish, and he can't do those in here."

The Honorables turned silent as they contemplated the meaning of the Wisdom King's words.

"Did you bring the badge of an Honorable?" The Wisdom King asked from the Honorable that was seated beside him.

"Yes, master." The Honorable took out a badge with the insignia of a golden crown engraved on it.

The Wisdom King took it and stood up.

After he stood up, every villager turned to look at him.

"You all may return to your homes." The Wisdom King gently said and then left the platform with the badge in hand.

...

On the nature-made viewing platform, Julian gazed out at the village.

"What a remarkable individual." He smiled and stood up. "I have a long way to go."

With those words, he turned around and walked off into the distance.

In the village doctor's house, a wrinkly old man mended Ambrose's injuries, which were plenty.

"I don't think I have enough medicine for him!" The village doctor shouted and waved at Zhen. "Go ask more medicine from Old Mao!"

Zhen nodded and ran out of the village.

The village doctor then turned to look at the bruised young man and shook his head.

"His entire body is crushed. His neck, chest, and both hands have penetration wounds, and both of his legs are missing.

"His arms alone should take close to a year to heal, not to mention his whole body.

"His organs are in a horrible state and will require extensive surgery to repair them."

The more he looked into the wounds, the more shocked he was.

He couldn't believe anyone was surviving this, yet the young human was still breathing with great vitality.

The village doctor quickly walked over to the desk and began mixing medicine.

At that moment, he heard a groan behind him.

"Ngh..."

Shocked, he turned around and saw the young man shakily opening his eyes.

"How is he... awake?!" The village doctor ran to his side and said. "Drink this; it will make you sleep!"

Ambrose, with blood-red eyes, looked at the ugly-colored medicine and pushed it away.

"No..."

"You'll die in this state!"

"No... give me... food!"

"Food?!" The village doctor shook his head. "You can't eat in this state!"

Grab—Ambrose grabbed him by his collar with his broken hand and pulled him closer.

With a bloodied mouth, he spoke. "Food... Now!"

"Ugh, it's your funeral!" The village doctor cursed inwardly, went to fetch a few snacks, and gave them to the patient.

Ambrose grabbed them and stuffed them into his mouth.

He then turned his gaze to the blinking health bar and saw the extremely low health have a noticeable increase.

'How... did I survive?' He thought in wonder. 'The health bar literally showed 0.0001/430.'

His health had never gotten that low, and he didn't even know it was possible.

After eating a few of the snacks, the penetration wounds on his neck, chest, and hands began healing at visible speed!

"H-how?" The village doctor asked in shock after seeing that some of the wounds that were supposed to take months to heal were almost completely closed in a matter of seconds.

"More... food... please." Ambrose's voice turned softer after saving himself from certain death.

The village doctor shakily nodded and went to get all the food he had in store.
