God's Gift

One of the ravens flapped its wings and swooped towards Yu Youyou.

Yu Youyou looked at the raven flying towards her, stopped, and stood there calmly.

A strong wind suddenly blew up, and the raven flapped its wings a few times, but it was still unable to move forward in the direction of Youyou, and could only hover in the headwind.

The raven changed direction and circled around the building several times, finally flying back to the power lines in vain and stopping.

The other ravens that were ready to move also stopped and stood in a row on the wires, staring at Yu Youyou.

Yu Youyou withdrew her gaze and walked to the fence on the roof.

The fence had fallen into disrepair and was broken in many places, and was only kept there by the wildly growing vines.

The dark clouds in the sky dissipated, revealing the bright moonlight behind the clouds.

"Hmm." A charming voice sounded, and Jianyue, who had slept for a whole day, finally woke up. Its flower buds, which had been tightly closed during the day, bloomed under the moonlight, and it yawned lazily: "The moon has finally risen..."

It poked out from Yu Youyou's sleeve, looked at the unfamiliar place, and asked, "Where is this place?"

Yu Youyou sat on the rickety fence, swaying her legs in the night wind, her eyes still fixed on the distant street, and answered Jianyue nonchalantly, "On the rooftop."

"Oh..." Jianyue stretched out the green leaves, stretched lazily, looked around, and asked in confusion:

"Why are you alone here? Where is that super fierce man this morning?"

"I haven't come back yet." Yu Youyou shook her legs, stared at the street and muttered.

"It's better if he's not here." Jianyue became happy instead. For some reason, he preferred to be with the girl in front of him: "He's so fierce, it's scary."

Yu Youyou tilted her head and explained to Jianyue seriously: "Actually, he is not fierce, he just doesn't smile often."

"You're the only one who thinks he's not fierce." Jian Yue snorted and quickly forgot about it. "I'm so hungry..."

Its petals swayed in the wind, and the direction of the flower moved downstairs with the breeze.

“Rabbit?” Jianyue looked at the corpse of the “crying rabbit” downstairs, his tone became excited, and he said to Youyou excitedly: “Take me downstairs quickly, I’m hungry.”

"You want to eat it?" Yu Youyou was a little surprised. Can the plants here directly eat animal corpses?

Although Yu Youyou didn't understand, she still followed Jianyue, jumped down from the roof, and landed lightly on the ground.

As soon as Jianyue reached the ground, he let go of Yu Youyou's wrist and controlled its roots to run towards the rabbit's body.

Under Yu Youyou's shocked gaze, Jianyue opened his bloody mouth and swallowed the huge rabbit corpse in one gulp.

Jianyue didn't even chew it before the rabbit disappeared into its body.

Yu Youyou took Jianyue back and looked at its slender rhizome and the small flower on top of it, her voice full of disbelief:

"Where did the rabbit go?"

"Of course it's in my stomach." Jianyue burped, wrapped her arms around Yu Youyou's wrist again, and said with satisfaction, "Rabbit meat is still the most delicious."

It was the first time that Yu Youyou saw such a magical plant. After hearing this, she became even more curious, "Have you eaten a lot of rabbits?"

"Yes." Jianyue nodded. "There are the most rabbits like this at night, and they are the easiest to catch. If you agree to them when they cry, you can trick them into coming and eat them."

If other students heard this, they would definitely be frightened. The monster that made them so exhausted was actually an easy prey in the eyes of this fragile little flower.

This is something that is really hard for ordinary people to understand, but for Youyou it is just a little surprising.

I didn’t expect that creatures contaminated by the dark star could evolve into such a magical appearance.

Yu Youyou looked around, turned around, jumped over the puddles on the road, and stood next to the shrine.

Jianyue looked at the shrine behind Yu Youyou and said, "This is where humans worship gods."

Yu Youyou nodded but didn't respond.

"I really don't understand humans." Jian Yue took care of her petals and complained: "Gods no longer exist in this world. No matter how much they pray, no gods will come to save them."

Hearing this, Yu Youyou looked down at Jianyue, "How did you know?"

"Of course, the memory in the plant's thousand-year-old genes told me." Jianyue answered nonchalantly: "Before we became what we are now, the breath of the gods always existed in this world, and our ancestors could sense the existence of the gods all the time."

Everything they have seen and heard over thousands of years is recorded in their genes. Coming from the forest, they are closest to the gods and can sense the divine breath between heaven and earth.

"But now, the divine aura has long been lost, and there are no gods in this world anymore."

Jian Yue looked up at Yu Youyou. The cool moonlight fell on Yu Youyou's face and hair, inexplicably showing a sense of indifference and alienation like the night.

She looked at Jianyue calmly, her gaze seemed to penetrate the eternity, like a flash of lightning that awakened all things during the Waking of Insects, evoking the remaining memories in Jianyue's genes.

In this world where the gods had long since left, Jianyue suddenly sensed a ray of divine breath.

The petals of Jianyue's flower trembled for a moment, and then suddenly became quiet. The two leaves slowly wrapped itself up, curled up around Yu Youyou's wrist, and quietly looked at Yu Youyou through the gaps between the leaves.

The bright moonlight surrounded Yu Youyou, as if emitting a faint glow. At this moment, she was even more beautiful than the moon in the sky.

Jian Yue's voice was as weak as a mosquito's, and he asked shyly, "Are you...are you the god of the forest?"

“No.” Yu Youyou didn’t expect Jianyue to ask this. She turned sideways and looked at the shrine beside her. “This is the forest god.”

“But you have the aura of a god.” Jian Yue paused and explained, “Actually, it’s not all the aura of the forest god… There is also a divine aura that I’m not familiar with…”

"But you do have the aura of the forest god in you. Are you our new god?"

When Yu Youyou heard Jianyue's words, she was a little stunned. She looked at the deer in the shrine and was stunned for a long time.

After a while, she put her hand on Forrest's head. At the moment of contact, the deer's body began to glow with white stars. Those spots of light leaped and sank into Yu Youyou's fingertips.

The white light was reflected in Youyou's eyes. She kept touching him for a long time before answering Jianyue's question:

“I come from the ocean.”

"Ocean!" Hearing this, Jianyue suddenly realized and said excitedly, "That's where life begins and where life returns to!"

The memory recorded in his genes told Jianyue everything. Before the birth of life on Earth, there was only an ocean on Earth. The boundless ocean gave birth to all life and was their origin.

"You are the head of all gods, the god of the deep sea."

"No wonder you have the aura of the forest god on you. It turns out that after the forest god fell, his divine power returned to its source!"
