Slayer of Gods: I lied; I became the agent of the Nine Gods.

Just before the ground shook once more, Lu Yu, who had just stopped to rest for a while, finally broke through to the Chuan Realm after six months of not making any breakthroughs in strength, thanks to her relentless exertion of power.

Waves of people continued to return to the rescue station, and the number of injured continued to increase, while the death toll was rising more slowly.

But when the ground shook again, all the victims screamed.

Lu Yu's mind went completely blank for a moment.

The burning sensation in his mind slowly subsided under the effect of the reversal technique.

"The earth dragon turned over?"

[Yes. ]

Lu Yu stood up again, his bones creaking slightly with each movement.

"Besides Qiye and the others, are there any other people on the mountain?"

[...Only one delirious voice and one Sea Realm follower remained. The two River Realm members were killed by something Lin Qiye brought out of the mental hospital. The Flame Vein Earth Dragon is struggling.]

It's pretty much the same as the original plot.

Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief. There was no need to worry about the Sea Realm. As for Yi Yu, Qi Ye would be enough to give him a hard time. The Flame Vein Earth Dragon was a servant left to Qi Ye by the Goddess of Night, so she shouldn't try to steal it.

Just as she was pondering, the little girl who had comforted her earlier came over.

"Sister... have you found your friends?"

Lu Yu bent down slightly to look at the little girl who was only up to her waist: "They'll be back soon..."

The little girl laughed: "That's great! You've worked hard too, big sister!"

"It's not hard work, it's what we should do..."

The little girl immediately ran to the side, grabbed a small bottle of water, and returned to Lu Yu's side: "Sister, have some water!"

Lu Yu took the water and gulped down several mouthfuls. She was a little disappointed that there was no sugar. Actually, having water at this point was good enough, but what she needed more was sugar.

Lu Yu had no idea that, in a corner she hadn't noticed, the little girl watching the girl drink most of the bottle of water was giving a strange smile.

……

Lin Qiye met with Baili Tuming and his group, but it was in this kind of setting.

He felt somewhat helpless for a moment.

Ma Tianyi from Haijing, having forgotten the pain of his past wounds, planned to show off his strength in front of Yiyu, but he didn't expect that as soon as he rushed in front of Baili Tuming and his group, he would fall face-first into a pile of rocks.

Shen Qingzhu, who rushed over: ? ? ? Is this a joke?

Baili Tuming stared blankly at the guy on the ground: "There are still six months until the New Year... Isn't it too early to offer New Year's greetings?"

Damn it, Happy New Year!

Ma Tianyi lay on the ground, his body trembling slightly, tears streaming down his face.

He's definitely having Mercury retrograde today! Mercury retrograde!!

Poor thing, he still wanted to show off in front of Master Yiyu...

So sad!!

Lin Qiye, however, was not so carefree and shouted, "Fatty! That's a sea realm!!!"

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's shout, the group immediately assumed a defensive stance.

He muttered helplessly, "I'm still right in front of you, aren't I? Why don't you pay attention?"

Lin Qiye smiled.

"How can you ignore me like this? I guess I still have to toy with your soul and make you truly experience death before you'll learn to respect people?"

Lin Qiye continued to mimic Lu Yu's professional smile: "I respect you very much." The fact that he didn't even try to force a fight was already a favor, considering his nine years of compulsory education.

"...Never mind, let me delve into the depths of your soul and weave for you the most painful dream of death..."

Yiyu chuckled in exasperation, her eyes brimming with excitement and agitation, "Scared now? It's too late..."

Lin Qiye showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he looked at the important figure from the Ancient God Church with a strange expression, his eyes seemingly filled with an inexplicable emotion.

"...Oh...I'm so scared!"

Not far away, Shen Qingzhu and the others were barely managing to block Ma Tianyi's first attack with the help of Baili Tuming's forbidden object, and were about to block his second attack when he raised his hand.

But then another scene unfolded that shocked everyone.

Ma Tianyi suddenly fell flat on his face again, landing straight down on the ground.

This time, however, he was experienced and instinctively braced himself with his hands on the ground.

But to his surprise, the moment he braced himself with his hands on the ground, a crack suddenly opened up from below, and he fell straight down.

Immediately afterwards, another gush of scalding lava erupted from the cave entrance, only to be carried back into the cave by gravity.

Ma Tianyi, who was already seriously injured, died so spectacularly.

She spoke calmly, almost as if in a daze, but at this moment she also felt like covering her face.

I've never heard of this guy being this unlucky before!

What a useless and troublesome fellow!

no! ! !

Yiyu's eyes narrowed, and without further hesitation, she realized that Lin Qiye's attitude was wrong. Instead, she used her ability to enter the depths of Lin Qiye's soul.

……

Leaving aside how Lin Qiye waited for Yiyu to come to the mental hospital to shut the door and beat the dog, Lu Yu looked at the nearly one hundred corpses in front of him.

The air felt a little chilly at that moment.

Survivors who had come to claim their loved ones were also present, some of them nearly fainting from crying.

There were elderly people burying their children, husbands bidding farewell to their wives and daughters, and neighbors coming here to lament that no one in that family had escaped tragedy...

They probably didn't expect this either...

Those who were dreaming a moment ago will now only be those who send messages in their dreams...

However, it will soon be more than just a dream...

Lu Yu walked to the center and looked around.

As soon as Yuan Gang landed, he saw Lu Yu standing solemnly in the center of the field full of corpses.

"Is it all over?"

Just as the soldiers who had seen their long-lost commander finally appear ran to his side, they heard Yuan Gang's question and instinctively answered:

"All the survivors have gathered here, and the bodies of the dead have all been brought out. The headcount has just been completed, and with the dead counted, everyone in the village has been found."

This time, there was no hindrance whatsoever. All the soldiers who went to search for people, except for those who were accidentally injured, found it exceptionally easy to even find those buried underground, as if all the luck had been concentrated after this disaster.

……

Yuan Gang paused for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "How many people died?"

"187 people died, and most of the injured survivors were healed by that white-haired girl."

The man, who had just escaped death, looked at the exhausted girl and his expression softened slightly.

This can be considered...

This is the only good news amidst countless tragedies.

But when he looked at Lu Yu this time, he didn't expect that the brat would open his arms wide, embracing the air with the largest possible surface area in contact with it.

Her whole body began to glow with a light that Yuan Gang was not unfamiliar with.

In the darkness, the girl stood out like a bright light bulb, drawing everyone's attention to her.

Yuan Gang had a bad feeling and blurted out, "Lu Yu! What are you doing?"

More than a hundred people! What are you trying to do?

The girl seemed not to hear, and her face remained gentle.

[Lu Yu, are you crazy? Zhao Kongcheng only helped you briefly because Nuwa descended briefly. You've just entered Sichuan, and reviving ten people is one thing, but this is 187 people!!!]

The system finally lost its composure upon realizing Lu Yu's purpose, its speech quickened, and it almost cracked at the end.

"I'm not crazy..."

Lu Yu released all of Chuan Jing's power, and in the blink of an eye, the light that had been restraining her shone on every corner of the area.

These points of light instantly covered the bodies of all the people lying on the ground.

While those who were staring blankly at the girl's actions were still wondering what was going on, they heard the person who had brought them healing like a goddess descending to earth that night speak softly:

"Does everyone want them to come back to life?"

what?

Thinking what?

This question popped into everyone's mind.

Of course I want to...

How could I not want to...

We're willing to pay any price...

I just hope they can come back...

They looked at the girl standing in the middle, their eyes changing from numb to fervent, as if she were their only lifeline.

"Then let me take them home..."

[Notification: The "Deception" event has been activated. At least 500 participants are required to revive all the dead. This requires 18.9 million Deception Points. As of now, you have 138 million Deception Points. You are running out of energy. Would you like to use this event?]

Nonsense, of course it's not enough. Does she even have that many points of falsehood? Not even a fraction!

That's why she never thought of using this ability to save people!

If you have the ability, you don't need to lie to deceive reality.

However, Lu Yu's strength has only just entered the Sichuan realm. To revive these people, they would all need to be at least at the peak of the Sea realm.

"Converting all the energy into cultivation level and temporarily raising it to the Boundless Realm shouldn't be a problem, right?"

[...Conversion in progress. The conversion of the virtual value was successful. Using only the Divine Ruins [Rebirth of All Things], cultivation can be increased to the Boundless Realm for five minutes, but only this one Divine Ruins is effective.]

"That's enough, let's begin."

Lu Yu accepted the answer without hesitation.

Then the light intensified, and multicolored hues flowed and danced on these people under the golden halo, pulsating like a heartbeat.

The soil beneath their feet seemed to spring up from the ground almost instantly, only to stop a very short distance from the surface.

They all slowly crawled onto the mutilated corpses, like wriggling fluid, eventually solidifying into the missing parts.

"This is not Chi Jing!"

Yuan Gang sensed this aura and looked at Lu Yu in astonishment, "It's the Boundless Realm!"

What exactly is Lu Yu doing?

This is definitely not because she broke through to the Boundless Realm!

Yuan Gang thought to himself,

A temporary boost inevitably comes with side effects, so what exactly is she doing?

But it's too late for him to think about these things now.

…………

Having finally shaken off his delirium and even effortlessly subdued the Fiery Earth Dragon with the help of the Goddess of Night, Lin Qiye and his companions had just returned when they heard Lu Yu's familiar voice echoing in that area:

"[All things are reborn!]!"

The girl's voice was hoarse, carrying an unconcealable weariness and exhaustion.

But she still stood there, her smile both gentle and sorrowful.

That was a silent blessing for those returning home.

No harm or pain, warding off misfortune and disaster.

In a daze, Lin Qiye actually saw in her the shadow of the deity from that night.

"I'm taking you home..."

---------

Don't think of her as some kind of saintly figure; this is the path she's destined to take.

I hesitated about whether to skip this part of the story, but I still chose to use it as a transition.

I was also a survivor of the 08 earthquake. Because I witnessed it, I truly hope time and time again that a miracle will happen.

Our soldiers are truly a miracle on earth.
