I Can See Health Bars in Real Life-Chapter 477 - 4: Babylon—The True Welcome Ceremony (Part 3)

The village was in ruins, and large swathes of land around it had turned into scorched earth.

Some areas looked as if they had been charred by flames, while others seemed to have been dissolved by some violent toxin, with the deadly poison killing the vegetation and soil's Life Force, turning the land into a deep ominous brown.

The remains of demon beasts were scattered everywhere, and on the horizon in the distance, more ferocious beasts were rushing over, seemingly attracted by the scent of their companions' blood...

"What are you planning to do?"

After hesitating for a moment, Hiri asked, as this should have been a strange and unrelated world that had suffered a disaster, yet it had nothing to do with them.

"Let's first assess the situation and see what we can do..."

Gu Mo responded calmly. Unlike Kikyo's kindness, he still had an attitude towards this like a game instance, thinking it was only natural. However, in the eyes of Hiri, who was unaware of the situation, this represented something else entirely.

It seemed that my earlier decision was not wrong...

The Demon Hunter Girl took a deep breath. She had been through a lot, and although she couldn't say she had become less kind, she was indeed not as innocent as before and had understood some things, which made the actions of these two even more commendable.

Possibly worthy of trust...

After hesitating slightly, Hiri added, "If anything goes wrong, I can open a portal to go back immediately."

Although inexplicably reassured, the Demon Hunter Girl also felt the need to face reality, and just remembered her latest discovery, so she quickly mentioned it.

"Of course, we'll act within our means... Wait, can you directly open a Teleportation Gate to go back?" Gu Mo responded, then caught onto the key point, almost immediately turning his head, staring intently at the white-haired girl with a curious gaze.

"I, I didn't lie before..." Hiri explained with some guilt, "I haven't fully mastered my ability yet. I don't know what world the other side of the Teleportation Gate leads to, nor how to return to the previous world. But this time it's different, and I don't know why..."

Anyway, I just suddenly felt I could do it.

I could sense the world on the other side.

"Did this change just happen..."

Gu Mo couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, suspecting it was due to the influence of the unintelligent system, although there was no evidence to prove it at the moment.

But on further thought, this is actually a good thing?

Perhaps from now on, exiting the instance wouldn't be so troublesome?

"There is something approaching..." At this moment, an ethereal voice sounded, yet it was from the usually silent witch beside them, who was frowning and looking at the distant sky.

A small black dot appeared on the horizon.

The speed was very fast, in just the blink of an eye, it had come from an elusive black dot to a closer distance where it could be vaguely discerned—

Black hair fluttered in the wind, and wearing elegant and luxurious yet daring attire, riding a giant bow-like flying boat, the figure's light and energetic glide through the sky exuded a sense of flamboyant charm. Her exquisite and beautiful face overflowed with a cheerful smile, appearing to be very pleased.

This figure seemed like the embodiment of the concept of beauty, streaking across the sky like a shooting star, swiftly soaring away!

Because they did not quite coincidentally meet, just passing by at a distance, the beautiful figure soaring across the sky didn't seem to notice anyone here and flew away directly, leaving only a small black dot on the horizon, which also soon disappeared.

"..."

"..."

The atmosphere returned to quiet again. Hiri had originally tensed and gripped the hilt of her Silver Sword tightly, feeling that even if she couldn't contribute much, she should still do something.

Only nothing happened as expected, and it just passed by.

Due to Kikyo's reminder, Gu Mo was ready immediately, but he wore a complex expression, knowing that whoever could attract the witch's attention was clearly not insignificant. Without a conflict or even an encounter, it was apparent that the figure wasn't targeting them, just happened to be passing by hastily.

Even with just a fleeting glance, he recognized who the figure was...

"It doesn't seem to be an Evil Demon, the aura tends towards the Power of Prophecy of Divine Spirits..."

Kikyo slightly raised her delicate eyebrows. Could it be a divine avatar walking? The autumn water eyes looked at someone beside her, wanting their opinion. She noticed that Gu Mo had an unusually complex expression and was still gazing into the distance.

"Is it someone you know?" The witch gently furrowed her brows.

"..."

"..."

"You could say I'm acquainted... She is Ishtar, the Goddess from Mesopotamian mythology, governing beauty and harvests, as well as warfare. She's probably appearing now in the form of a pseudo-Servant." Gu Mo nodded, slowly retracting his gaze, speaking oddly, "I basically understand the situation of this world now."

Ishtar, Mesopotamia, pseudo-Servant...

These terms were somewhat unfamiliar to both the witch and the Demon Hunter Girl. However, they could generally understand the meaning. The witch was calm, but the Demon Hunter Girl couldn't help but widen her eyes. Was that just now an avatar of a Divine Spirit?
