I Can See Health Bars in Real Life-Chapter 492 - 8: Starting the Spoilers! (Part 2)

I just don’t know if it will work in this world...

"Then I’ll ask Miss Kikyo later..."

The Demon Hunter Girl stopped, lost in thought, while Gu Mo leisurely walked into the pavilion, sitting down on the smooth stone bench. He reached for the teapot on the stone table and poured himself a cup of warm tea, gently blowing on it.

The morning air was fresh, and the little valley was no different. The medicinal herbs in the garden dripped with glistening dew, refracting brilliant light in the golden morning light.

"It’s been three months already..."

The white-haired girl didn’t stand on ceremony and sat down directly across, pouring herself a cup of tea as well.

"Yeah, it’s been three months."

Gu Mo nodded. He certainly knew it had been three months. Initially, he was worried he might not make it in time, so after figuring out the situation, he rushed to Mount Abif, visited Ishtar, and quickly established a deep yet fragile revolutionary friendship with the Goddess using Gemstones...

Mainly because he was worried that Chaldea might be coming or might have already arrived, and if he didn’t create a time difference, the Gemstones in his hands might not be used effectively.

After all, compared to the three-tenths of the mineral stones in the Uruk Treasure Vault, the Gemstones in his hands were insignificant. If he didn’t act quickly, he couldn’t hook up with Lady Goddess... Probably only after seeing the treasures transported from Uruk, extravagantly displayed before him, would Ishtar realize how black-hearted he was.

Just to earn a few Gemstones...

She had been running back and forth across the land of Mesopotamia more frequently than a food delivery rider...

However, Gu Mo hadn’t expected his timing to be slightly early. From initially thinking Chaldea had already arrived to thinking they would soon arrive, to doubting if they were coming at all... three months had unknowingly passed.

Knowing this singular point could only last for up to half a year, otherwise, he might have lost his composure.

But that’s also okay, as the Spiritual Qi in this world is extremely dense, and according to the terminology of this instance, it belongs to the background of the Age of Gods. Mystical phenomena are not seen as mysterious but rather as common knowledge, with the Great Source overflowing, Magic Power thick, and the atmosphere filled with ether.

Training and cultivation in such an environment is naturally very beneficial, and coupled with his continuous self-improvement during this period, his Professional Level has risen by one level, now at "Alchemist-LV4."

Just like the early stages of Life Level advancement, his current Professional Level is not very high, so the speed of progress is not particularly slow, and the experience bar at his current level is almost three-quarters full. With one more level up, he would be just one point away from unlocking the advanced path of an Immortal.

"Is this world about to be destroyed..."

Hiri didn’t know what the young man before her was contemplating. She just glanced at the outline of the light band in the sky, and with a complex feeling, spoke these words.

"Not long now," Gu Mo said casually. "But the hero who will save the world should arrive soon, so there’s no need to worry too much."

"I’m not worried; it’s just that..." Hiri shook her head. Though she was kind, she didn’t feel responsible for a world about to face catastrophe. If she had the ability to help, she wouldn’t refuse, but if she couldn’t, she wouldn’t take it upon herself.

However—

"A hero to save the world?" Thinking of such a descriptor, the white-haired girl looked at the young man with some uncertainty. "Will such a person really come?"

"Of course, there will be."

"A real God? Or the messenger of the Gods?" the white-haired girl asked with slight anticipation. If possible, she didn’t want to see this world vanish, yet she couldn’t imagine any hope left in this world, especially since even that Goddess said she had no way.

"Neither, just two ordinary people, one slightly special, having the Power of a Servant, though relatively weak and not anywhere close to Lady Goddess’s level..."

Gu Mo shook his head. There’s no actual God, but if considering the messenger, maybe they could be regarded as agents of Counter Force? As the last hope of humanity, gathering the wavelengths of seven billion primates, like a will that has sublimated among an ant colony, the collective unconscious of humanity is surely struggling mightily.

Perhaps besides the will of Araiyer, which comes from the collective unconscious of humanity, there is also the will of Gaia, the memory of the planet, Earth’s Soul.

After all, the mastermind intends not only to destroy humanity but to annihilate Earth as a planet. Once the grand scheme of the Primordial Great Demon is achieved, it could leap to the origin of the star, tracing back forty-six billion years to the very moment "celestial bodies" were born in this Domain and claim all the Energy of that time for itself.

In other words, to replace Earth’s birth and become the "new celestial body," rewriting Genesis.

Whether for humanity or for Earth, it’s a plan of complete annihilation, so the Counter Force will naturally strive with all its might to thwart it. If not for the mastermind’s extreme ferocity, the Counter Force alone could have nipped the threat in the bud ahead of time.
