About ten minutes later, their internal injuries had also improved. Their eyelids moved, and they woke up.

Still a bit dazed at first, they murmured, "What happened to me..."

Their wives had already burst into tears of joy, throwing themselves onto their husbands and clutching them tightly, refusing to let go.

Gong Shuxu and the others nodded to themselves. Atomic Life's healing effect is impressive. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

But to the other miners, this was nothing short of a miracle! Even the overseers felt their legs go weak, unable to resist the urge to kneel before Chen Gu.

Regarding the 'Great True God,' they were not ignorant, but what did that have to do with them? These miners could believe in whatever they wanted, as long as they mined enough ore each day.

What this 'deity' preached in his teachings—they neither knew nor were interested in knowing.

Old Charles approached with the utmost respect, folding his hands across his chest and bowing deeply. Using the highest etiquette of the church, he asked, "Honorable sir, may we know your identity?"

Chen Gu stood still and subtly used some of his professional abilities to shroud himself in a faint 'divine light.'

"I am the chosen of God, the Prophet who will lead you out of the vast darkness.

"A few days ago, my clansmen and I were nothing but wild folks hiding in the mountains. But one evening, God suddenly chose me. He came to me in my dreams, using His supreme divine power to let me experience all the sufferings of the world. Then He told me that this world needs saving!

"I knelt down, received a fraction of God's power, and swore an oath before Him that I would save all the stray lambs in this world for Him!

"When I woke up, everything about God was deeply imprinted in my mind. I had never learned these things, but I knew them all—this was a miracle!

"Then, we came here. This disaster was God's way of revealing me to everyone."

He pointed at everyone. "You are the first flock of lambs that God most wants to save!"

This time, the members of the special action squad were the ones left dumbstruck. Chen Jixian couldn't bear to watch anymore. This charlatan is my father... How mortifying.

The buddies who had fought side by side with him in Wuzhaoyin City looked at each other. Chen Gu actually has such a talent for being a charlatan?

Big Rabbit puffed her somewhat chubby cheeks, thinking to herself, He's as good at deceiving people as ever. How did I not see through his true colors back then? He tricked me into joining the Bureau of Mystic Security, thoroughly exploited me, and then that scoundrel callously abandoned me!

Chu Zheng was so excited she felt like exploding on the spot, wanting only to raise her fists and shout, "Instructor is mighty!"

Old Charles took the lead and knelt down. "Oh God above, we have finally welcomed hope!"

All the believers trembled with excitement, especially those Chen Gu had rescued from the mine. Tears brimmed in their eyes as they kept bowing their heads and praising the deity.

Chen Gu's plan was to infiltrate the cult's inner circle directly!

What better, more direct, and effective way to thoroughly investigate the roots of this evil cult? There was none!

The overseers were dumbfounded. Who are we? Where are we? What should we do now?

Chen Gu walked towards the overseers. They immediately hesitated—in the entire mining site, apart from Chen Gu's 'clansmen,' only they were still standing.

At that moment, all the miners gazed at them with a crazed look. The overseers quickly understood that if they did not convert to this 'Great True God,' the believers, already in a frenzy, would likely flay them alive on the spot.

The overseers immediately knelt down. "We wish to convert under my God's dominion."

Chen Gu spoke calmly, "The lambs my God wishes to save aren't just these poor people. My God will show you where you can mine veins of higher-grade ores."

He looked at Boluo, who had yet to realize what was happening and blankly met Chen Gu's gaze. What's he looking at me for?

Chen Gu cursed silently and could only state plainly, "Point out the location of the veins to them."

Boluo, as an Alchemical Master, was skilled at locating high-grade ore veins. Although this wasn't his precise area of expertise, his ability was still like cheating compared to the primitive methods of this world.

Boluo finally reacted with an 'Oh,' as if just coming to. Thankfully, though not the brightest, he was from a higher-level civilization. He wandered around the mining area, singled out a spot, stomped his foot, and declared, "I heard God's voice. He tells me it's here."

The miners didn't wait for the overseers' instructions. With unprecedented vigor, they picked up their tools and, with a great CLATTER, began to dig.

The overseers, skeptical but curious, craned their necks to watch from the side.

Claiming 'conversion' was just due to the pressure of the situation. Deep down, they didn't truly believe in this so-called 'Great True God.'

But doubts crept into their minds, wondering if there really could be such a powerful deity—mainly because Chen Gu played the role of a charlatan so well.

After removing just the outer layer of stone and digging about a meter down, the overseers pounced forward, their eyes gleaming with a wolf-like green light.

High-grade ore! The quality was even superior to the previous ores extracted from this mine.

This time, the overseers were completely convinced. They tumbled at Chen Gu's feet, bowing their heads repeatedly, even more devout than the miners!
