"He succeeded" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"That's right, he successfully ascended as a Divinity" Lola replied.
The two of them went silent.
"Ah, weren't you going to pay that Fighting God some money?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Lola nodded: "That's right, his bank account number is — — -"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I didn't remember it"
Lola replied: "I wanted to, but his nasal voice was too heavy, I couldn't hear it clearly"
Silence.
A moment of absolute silence.
Lola hesitantly asked: "… Will he come back and beat me to death?"
Gu Qing Shan hesitantly replied: "He probably won't"
The Fighting God is definitely an expert in combat.
Rather than offending such a person, it's better to quickly think of a way to solve this problem.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then said: "Use your name to make a card, save the money, when he appears, give it to him, the misunderstanding will be resolved"
"Alright, that's the only thing we can do"
Lola sighed.
The altar let out a series of noises.
An inexplicable sense of rejection descended on the two of them.
— — -seems like they're about to leave.
Gu Qing Shan felt that something wasn't right behind him.
He turned around and doubtfully asked: "Chao Yin?"
Before he even finished his sentence, a spatial suction force appeared.
Gu Qing Shan and Lola were transported out.
…
Gu Qing Shan found himself sitting in a dark room.
Aside from a bed and a table, there was nothing else in the room.
Death God Deep Snow was sitting on the edge of the bed, silently watching the two of them.
"Thank the heavens, you've finally come out."
She said.
"What happened?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"The Hell King discovered me, I had no choice but to run away with the ceremonial gate to prevent him and his subordinates from interfering with the Apotheotic Combat ritual" Deep Snow replied.
Gu Qing Shan looked at Deep Snow's shoulder, only to see a bloodstain there.
"You're injured, who did it?" Lola asked.
Deep Snow clutched her shoulder and frowned: "A few Underworld Deities — — there's no need to ask, as long as the Apotheosis Ritual is over, that invisible fluctuation will disappear, they won't be able to find us for now"
Lola rummaged in her bag for a while and took out a medicine bottle.
"Big sister Deepsnow, eat one of these, it's very good at healing" Lola said.
Deep Snow shook her head: "Thank you for your kindness, but it's not that easy to injure a God — —"
"You try first." Gu Qing Shan cut her off.
Deep Snow took the pill and swallowed it.
Moments later.
A look of surprise appeared on her face.
"How is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"… Great, this medicine can actually heal Gods!" Deep Snow exclaimed.
"This is the herb that the Holy Heroic Spirit girl planted. It took a lot of effort to refine one," Lola said.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly understood.
The Dusty World.
The Holy Heroic Spirit girl Li of the gloomy old city was the summoned spirit of Lola.
With Lola's constant support, that girl's world should have been on the right track.
This pill that can heal Gods is proof of that.
"What do we do now? Do I want to avenge you? "Gu Qing Shan asked.
"No, we need to hide" Deep Snow replied.
"Why not? I've already completed the ritual, there's no need to worry about my safety! "Lola said.
Deep Snow looked at the two of them and said: "You're both new Deities, so you need to hide and slowly absorb the power of your believers to strengthen yourselves — — especially at a time like this, when the war between the Gods is about to erupt, there's no need for us to charge in and become their target practice"
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan understood.
"Build high walls, accumulate food, slowly proclaim yourself king — — also known as wretched growth" Gu Qing Shan nodded.
He looked outside the window.
Outside was a barren plain, and there was only a single road that passed through his field of vision.
— — -this was a highway rest stop.
"Head North for a few dozen more kilometers, and you'll reach the desolate desert" Deep Snow said.
Without people, there would be no believers.
If that's the case, the Gods wouldn't be able to track down the three of them.
Gu Qing Shan observed for a bit and said: "There aren't many people here, we can head out"
"We don't have a car" Deep Snow said.
"Fly there directly" Gu Qing Shan said.
"I can't, my Divine power has already been locked on, as soon as I use it, the Gods will discover me" Deep Snow said.
"How did they lock on to your Divine power?" Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
"The power that I scattered after the battle was temporarily locked on to by them, it'll take a few more hours for it to dissipate" Deep Snow replied.
"Then how did you get to this place?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"When someone dies, I can directly arrive — — without using Divine power, and without being discovered by the other Gods" Deep Snow replied.
Gu Qing Shan looked at Lola.
"Do you have a car with you?" he asked.
"There's a horse carriage" Lola replied.
"… Forget it, we'll see if anyone else comes" Gu Qing Shan said.
The three of them sat in the room for a while.
Finally.
A large truck came down from the road and stopped in front of the rest stop.
A middle-aged man came down and walked into the rest stop's restaurant.
"Very well, seems like we have a car" Gu Qing Shan pondered.
— — -not using Divine power.
As long as you don't fight with others, it's not a big deal.
"Should we just buy it? I'll go talk to that person! "
Lola volunteered.
"— — be careful, we still don't know what this person believes in" Deep Snow said.
This was like a bucket of cold water being poured on them. Gu Qing Shan and Lola didn't say anything.
Believers are the eyes of the Gods.
Once a believer sees the three of them, the God of the believer would also see the three of them.
If that's the case, their whereabouts would be exposed.
— — -the car is right in front of us, but we can't get it?
Gu Qing Shan looked outside.
Only to see that the truck driver was sitting by the window of the restaurant, ordering his food and waiting.
Deep Snow said: "The restaurant is full of people, each of them are the eyes and ears of the Gods, we can't go to the restaurant either"
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then said: "Of course we can't go to the restaurant"
"We can't?" Deep Snow and Lola asked at once.
"That's right, regardless of whose believer he is — — Lola, we need you to steal this person away" Gu Qing Shan said.
"I, I, I, I, I, I'm still underage, I don't know how to steal someone" Lola said helplessly.
Gu Qing Shan said: "It's my misunderstanding, Lola, you need to familiarize yourself with the power of the Gods, like …"
Lola seriously listened and reached her hand out towards the restaurant.
She began to trigger her Divine power.
…
The truck driver leaned back on the sofa and sighed tiredly.
Driving such a long distance is a very tiring thing to do.
But he was currently hungry and only wanted to eat something.
As he took a sip of water from his glass, he noticed that something wasn't quite right under his butt.
He looked down.
There was a banknote stuck in the gap of the sofa.
The truck driver was taken aback. He hurriedly raised his head and looked around.
In the deserted restaurant, no one paid any attention to him.
He silently moved his butt to hide the banknote so that no one would notice him.
A few moments later.
The waiter brought a plate of noodles and left.
Still no one said anything.
It was as if no one knew about this at all.
— — -did some careless person just happen to leave this money here?
The truck driver ate a few mouthfuls of noodles, saw that no one was paying attention to him, then put his hand under his butt to take out the banknote.
There was a small line of text written on the banknote:
[There's no need to wait to use money, no need to use usury, just pray to the Goddess of Wealth]
The truck driver froze.
For the sake of safety on the road, I've always believed in the God of Travel.
Which Deity is the Goddess of Wealth?
I'll have money to spend if I pray — — -
How could there be such a good thing in this world?
The truck driver shook his head and instinctively muttered: "Goddess of Wealth …"
As soon as he said so, he felt a strange sensation on his butt.
He lifted his butt to take a look.
— — -there was another banknote below.
The denomination was even larger.
This time, the truck driver was a bit surprised.
Could there really be such a good thing in this world?
Speaking of which, if I really had a lot of money to spend, why would I still need to travel so far?
He took a deep breath and muttered: "Goddess of Wealth, I … don't know if I can believe in you …"
Clang!
A diamond fell in front of him, knocked on the plate, and slid into the noodles.
The truck driver was stunned.
He trembled as he used his spoon to find the diamond.
One carat!
That's right, this is definitely one carat!
The truck driver took out a few napkins, wrapped the diamond inside, and carefully put it away.
This is too — —
Too magical.
If the God of Travel could be like the Goddess of Wealth, my life wouldn't be so hard.
Wait a minute …
The truck driver silently sat there for a few minutes.
He made his choice.
"Goddess of Wealth, I am your faithful believer. From now on, I will wholeheartedly believe in you and walk on your path"
The truck driver silently muttered.
Clang clang clang clang clang!
The void of space trembled. Several dozen diamonds fell down and clattered as they hit the plate.
The truck driver didn't care that the noodles were still hot — — - in truth, he had completely forgotten about this, both physically and spiritually.
He tremblingly put the diamonds away, turned around, and left the restaurant.
He started the truck, stepped on the gas pedal, and quickly drove on the road.
With these diamonds, why would I need to drive?
— — I need to hurry back!
Not too long after the truck left, three people appeared in front of him.
A man and two women.
The truck driver didn't want to stop, but a voice resounded in his ears:
[My believer, you need to do something for the Goddess]
The truck driver immediately stepped on the brakes and hurriedly shouted: "Yes, your excellency, please instruct me"
The voice continued: [Open the storage compartment in front of you, take what's inside, leave the truck for the person in front of you, then leave by yourself]
The truck driver hesitated.
This truck is what I rely on to make a living.
Even if I don't drive anymore, I can still sell it for a lot of money.
If I just give it to someone else — — -
While thinking that, he opened the storage compartment as instructed.
— — there were 20 gold bars neatly stacked inside.
