The police station.
"Good, we've caught the culprit, he'll go to court next week, if nothing goes wrong, he'll go straight to jail"
"Hm, goodbye"
The phone hung up.
The sheriff leaned back in his armchair and let out a long sigh.
Next to him, his subordinates were watching the surveillance footage.
"Look"
"He really was sent flying."
"How could a person survive at that speed?"
Following their discussion, the black-robed Death god appeared on the screen.
Everyone immediately chanted the prayer of the Death god.
— — -the fact that the Death god appeared on the screen meant that she didn't mind being a witness for this incident.
Even she was paying attention to the development of the situation.
Following that, the legendary Earth God appeared.
Just like what the culprit said, the entire incident continued to develop.
Finally.
The Earth God lightly lifted the man up. The man was instantly healed.
This was a living miracle!
No.
This isn't a miracle, this is a miracle!
"Seems like I'll have to ask for the Earth God's blessing as well, that way, I'll have an extra life when I fight against the culprit" someone muttered.
Bam!
The door opened.
A police officer walked in blankly.
— — -he was the one who came out earlier, responsible for contacting the man who was hit and recording the incident.
"What's wrong with you?" the police chief scowled.
"I … believe in the Earth God …" the police officer muttered as if he was sleep-talking.
Everyone looked at him.
The police officer opened his wallet for everyone to see.
It was completely empty.
"Tsk tsk, the Earth God took all of your money!" someone hissed.
The police officer shook his head: "This is something I'm willing to offer to the Earth God, you should know, this esteemed God cured my … my …"
He abruptly turned around to leave, taking out his phone while shouting: "Honey, don't fall asleep, wait for me"
— — -the police officer left.
Everyone had confused expressions.
That's right, they've known each other for a few dozen years, so they all know about this police officer.
He had a few minor ailments that couldn't be cured.
Could it be …
Is the Earth God really that powerful?
Right, the Earth God originally took care of the body.
Everyone's thoughts became active again.
Some minor ailments couldn't be cured even if they wanted to, sometimes they could only use medicine — — -
If the Earth God could help, who wouldn't be willing?
The sheriff waved his hand and said, "Alright, it's your freedom to believe in any deity, but it's working hours now. Those on the night shift stay, the rest of you can go back."
"Yes, Boss!" Everyone answered in unison.
They walked out of the sheriff's office and went their separate ways.
However, news of the Earth God began to spread in all directions in secret.
In the office.
The sergeant waited for the surroundings to quiet down before taking out a photo from the drawer.
In the photo was a little girl playing on a swing.
A bright smile appeared on the little girl's face.
The sheriff stroked the photo and stared at it for a long time. Finally, he knelt on the ground with the photo in his hands.
"Great Earth God."
"Please wake my daughter from her coma."
"I will offer everything I have, whether it is my soul, flesh, or anything else, as long as she can wake up again."
"I beg you."
"I will serve you for eternity."
He knelt on the ground and repeated it over and over again.
But nothing happened.
The sheriff gradually stopped chanting.
He thought about it seriously for a while, opened his wallet, took out all the money, put it together with the photo, and continued to pray.
Time slowly passed.
— — still nothing miraculous happened.
The sheriff fell silent again.
The deity didn't respond to my call.
Why is that?
According to what the deity said, I should have already fulfilled the requirements!
The sheriff thought about it for a while and finally understood.
He threw the cigarette on the table into the trash can and muttered: "From today onwards, I will exercise every day, I will never smoke again"
"Also, I will resolutely eliminate all drug dealers within my jurisdiction"
A second later.
Ring ring ring — —
The phone on the table suddenly rang, cutting off his speech.
The sheriff had no choice but to put the photo and money on the table, then picked up the phone.
"… It's me"
"What? She's awake! "
"I'll be there right away!!!"
The sheriff put down the phone, grabbed his car keys, and ran outside like a madman.
On the table.
The girl in the photo was still smiling brightly.
The stack of money next to her suddenly disappeared.
…
"You can't use the Divine Authority of [Eternal Death]" Shen Xue said.
"Why not?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Shen Xue patiently explained: "Normally speaking, even if a Deity is killed, they will still have a chance to reincarnate, even if they become a talented mortal, they will at least be able to continue existing"
"While [Eternal Death] is returning to Primal Chaos"
"If you use the Divine Authority of [Eternal Death], all Deities will be completely destroyed — — you will become the enemy of all Deities"
Gu Qing Shan lightly tapped the table and spoke with a relaxed expression: "Then forget it, as the Earth Deity, I can form a good relationship with you"
"War will bring me endless power, if you don't support war, I will kill you right now" Shen Xue said with a smile that didn't seem like a smile.
A deep chill surged from her body, like a blizzard.
Gu Qing Shan's expression didn't change, she took a sip of liquor and slowly asked: "What faction do you think I belong to?"
"You said before that you don't want war to break out in this world — — you are on the same side as the God of Life" Shen Xue replied.
"No, I will go and do my own thing, it has nothing to do with those Deities" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Under the tides of the era, no one can escape, do you really think you can stay out of it?" Shen Xue coldly sneered.
"Of course, there's no need to fight and kill for no reason — — - but if everyone wants to fight, I'm more than happy to oblige. After all, my expertise lies in killing and war" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"So you intend to be a lone traveler?" Shen Xue asked.
"I haven't decided yet. I need to understand this world a bit more, and there are a few things that I need to observe for a bit longer" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shen Xue pondered for a while before speaking up: "I am one of the strongest Deities in the [Chaotic World] faction, I don't know if I should let you go today"
"No matter what decision you make, I hope you won't regret it" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shen Xue tilted her head and silently evaluated him.
"I only have one last question" Shen Xue said.
"Ask" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Why do you wish for everyone to live to a hundred years old and live a good life every day?" Shen Xue asked.
"Because I wish for myself to be like that, so I'm guessing that everyone wishes to live a peaceful life like that" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"How can mortals be the same as Deities?" Shen Xue questioned.
"Even Deities desire power, how can mortals not desire to live a good life?" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"… What you said is impossible to achieve" Shen Xue replied.
"But it's worth the effort, it's an interesting thing that you won't regret after doing it" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shen Xue looked at him.
"Gu Qing Shan, if everyone can live to a hundred years old, my power as the Death God will be greatly weakened" she sincerely said.
Gu Qing Shan clapped her hand and replied: "That's easy, I'll have my followers hold a funeral for themselves every ten years. During the funeral, they'll chant the prayers of the Death God, worship the Death God, and experience the preciousness of life"
"Ten years is too long" Shen Xue replied.
"Then once every five years" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"It's best if it's once every day" Shen Xue replied.
"If it's once every day, will they still be able to live? Holding a funeral every day isn't a good way to live, don't you think so?" Gu Qing Shan helplessly said.
"Once every three years" Shen Xue replied.
"— — Deal!" Gu Qing Shan slammed the table.
"You're actually a demon, aren't you? Something like this between your followers … you actually arranged it like this" Shen Xue commented.
"This is a good thing for my followers, once I have a large number of followers, this will be beneficial to both you and me, why wouldn't it be?" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shen Xue sighed and muttered: "A Deity like you who asks your followers for money as soon as you come up, I'm actually not very optimistic about that"
As Gu Qing Shan was about to say something, his expression changed.
Clatter clatter — — -
The table in front of him was quickly filled with money.
The pile of money grew higher and higher, slowly reaching the ceiling, some even fell to the ground.
"So much money … how long has it been? How did your followers grow so quickly?" Shen Xue blankly said.
"See, I think I have a lot of prospects in this field of Deities"
Gu Qing Shan's voice came from behind the pile of money.
The crowd went into an uproar.
"Whoa, so much money!"
Everyone rushed forward to pick up the money.
But no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't pick up a single piece of paper.
The music stopped.
Everyone was speechless, standing still in shock.
"This kind of thing … can only be done by Deities …"
"There's no mistake, it's a Deity"
"My god, I'm witnessing a miracle with my own eyes"
Everyone respectfully retreated.
At the same time.
Outside the bar's surveillance screen, inside a luxurious private room.
Several muscular men were soaked in cold sweat as they looked at the two people on the sofa.
One of them blankly said: "Oh no … that chick seems to be a Deity …"
The other man didn't say anything else and took out a handgun to aim at his temple.
Bang!
A gunshot was fired.
He fell to the ground, bleeding profusely.
— — his head had been blown off, but his body was still twitching on the ground, moaning in pain:
"Why … I'm not dead yet? Why … "
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
The pain that surpassed his limit caused him to scream in frenzy:
"Great God of Slavery! I'm your faithful follower, I've offered many slaves to you — — you've seen me before, I beg you, let me die, I only want to die right now! "
No response.
Nothing happened.
Everyone dispersed in an uproar.
