God's Gift

The Pope and Lu Keming returned to the village, and the believers and Blue Dragon members were already waiting outside the village.

Seeing Lu Keming, Anthony took a few steps forward and called out, "Master."

He glanced behind Lu Keming, but did not see Yu Youyou.

Anthony lowered his head, guessing that Yu Youyou might be gone.

Shen Minghua and Ye Li saw Lu Keming coming back, but did not see Yu Youyou, so they walked towards Lu Keming.

"Lu Keming, have you seen Yu Youyou?" Ye Li asked Lu Keming with a serious expression.

As soon as her voice came out, everyone's eyes were on Lu Keming.

"I have been traveling with the Lord of God all the way, and I have never seen that little girl."

The Pope held the little girl in his arms. Although the others were puzzled, they did not dare to question him further.

Facing Ye Li at this moment, he turned into his kind and benevolent self again, smiling peacefully, "You asked the wrong person."

Lu Keming didn't say anything, just looked at Ye Li calmly.

Ye Li then withdrew her gaze and looked at the intelligent brain again. She had sent dozens of messages to Yu Youyou, but Yu Youyou had not replied yet.

The fires of hell have been extinguished, where did Yu Youyou go?

"A Li, don't worry so much. Even if something happens, she will be protected by the intelligent computer. At most, she will be eliminated early. There will be no danger." Fang Ziang saw Ye Li worried and comforted her kindly.

Shen Minghua didn't say anything. For some reason, he always had a bad feeling in his heart.

The Pope on the other side did not give them time to think and spoke up, breaking the peaceful atmosphere.

"Since everyone is here, I'll show you what we found in the forest."

The Pope then showed the sleeping red-haired little girl to everyone.

Emma, ​​who was standing in the crowd, had her long red hair braided and tied behind her head. When she saw the little girl, she smiled silently.

The ragged son of the village chief, who had been sitting in the corner, suddenly went mad when he saw the girl and rushed towards the Pope.

"Give...her...to me..." His voice was unclear, repeating those words.

Because Lu Keming and the Pope were standing together, Anthony was the first to stand up and kicked him to the ground.

When the villagers saw this scene, they gathered together and whispered about the abnormality of the village chief's crazy and stupid son.

"What I have in my hand is the core of Hellfire, which was presented to the Daughter of Hellfire by the dead village chief." The Pope held up the little girl and told her story.

"She has long been devoured by the Hellfire and merged with it, possessing the powerful energy of the Hellfire!"

“And we can use this energy to replenish the power of blessing and summon our gods!

As soon as the Pope's words came out, the crowd suddenly became noisy.

The villagers were stunned, while the believers were cheering.

"Your Holiness, why do you think the fire of hell can help you summon your gods?" When Shen Minghua heard the Pope say that the little girl was the core of the fire of hell, his expression became alert and he asked the Pope cautiously.

"I once felt the breath of God under the blood tree. That breath was even stronger than the feeling brought to me by the blessing." The Pope stared at the fire in the little girl's body with fanatical eyes.

He couldn't touch the fire at that time, but the gods sent messengers over, which was clearly sent by the gods to help him.

Shen Minghua obviously did not believe the Pope's answer.

"Your Holiness, since it is the fire of hell, how can it be related to your gods?"

The Pope looked at Shen Minghua suddenly with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Since I am the Pope and have the responsibility to communicate with the gods, how could I feel that I am wrong!"

As soon as the Pope spoke, his followers began to echo him.

"We believe in His Holiness the Pope!"

"Trust His Holiness the Pope!"

Shen Minghua was blocked by the noisy sound and simply stopped talking.

The Pope laughed, then fell silent after a while and looked at the crowd below.

"But there is a price to pay for allowing the gods to appear."

"Fire needs food to have energy. Who among you is willing to sacrifice yourself for the gods?"

As soon as the Pope said this, the believers who had been shouting that they believed in him fell silent.

Everyone looked at each other.

The Pope smiled tolerantly, seemingly not displeased by the church members' retreat, and looked at the villagers.

"Then let the villagers go first. After all, you have gained so much from the Hellfire. Now it's time to give back."

Fang Ziang, who was watching the show, was stunned by the Pope's words and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "Fuck!"

Ye Li and Shen Minghua reacted immediately and turned around to protect the villagers.

The Pope looked at Lu Keming.

Lu Keming, who had been standing against a tree trunk and listening to the entire conversation, stood up straight and made a gesture to the Blue Dragon members.

The blue dragon quickly surrounded the villagers and Ye Li and the others.

After a night of fierce fighting, there were only a few people left in Ye Li's team. Faced with the large number of fully armed Blue Dragon members, they were captured after only a short resistance.

-

At the bottom of the cliff, a mechanical sound suddenly appeared above Yu Youyou who was lying on the ground.

[Host has no vital signs detected.]

[Start system disengagement procedure.]

[Countdown to system exit: 3, 2...]

However, before the system countdown was finished, a faint white fire ignited beside Yu Youyou.

That was the blessed flame that should have been extinguished.

But it was weak and powerless, like a dying person, and it desperately ignited the last flame, which turned into a misty white light, falling on Yu Youyou's burnt arms and bullet-pierced chest.

The charcoal-black scab fell off Yu Youyou's arm, and fresh, white skin grew underneath.

The flesh on the chest was also growing slowly, and the green heart that fell from the fire was beating, replacing the original heart that was shattered by the bullet.

After the light spots of blessing were exhausted, the wounds on Yu Youyou's body finally healed, and the green heart disappeared into her chest.

[Beep, the system program has failed, the system is restarting...]

[Restart successful.]

[Host vital signs detected.]

As the system broadcasted, Yu Youyou opened her eyes. Her dark and watery pupils were as clear as a deer's. She touched her chest.

The system hasn't left yet, and it seems a little confused about what is happening in front of it.

Yu Youyou supported herself on the ground with her hands, climbed up from the ground, and brushed off the dust on her body.

"System, don't leave yet. I have a few questions for you."

[Host, please ask.] The system has seen many unnatural phenomena, so it was only frozen for a few seconds when it saw Youyou's resurrection, and then it regained its composure.

"The first question is, was there something wrong with the story you told me at the beginning?" Yu Youyou asked, looking at the indelible bloodstains on her clothes, feeling a little distressed.

"You said Lu Keming likes Ali, but he said he doesn't like Ali."

The system was silent for a long time.

[Lu Keming should have liked the heroine Ye Li.]

Yu Youyou heard the system's answer and nodded.

It should have, and it didn’t happen.

"But he didn't fall in love with Ali as you thought, so you can't control this world, right?"
