If you look down from a high place at the ruined Nantang Town, you can see a black-haired girl with black hair and red eyes, exuding an inhuman aura, gracefully walking out of the shadows and standing on the top of the towering ruins, overlooking the entire Nantang Town.
The sealed manhole cover was violently pushed open from the bottom up, and a black liquid resembling oil and asphalt gushed out in an endless stream.
Soon, the entire Nantang Town was submerged by the dark tide.
The lightless darkness and the colorful black are entangled together, evaporating all the moisture.
The rain falling from the sky stopped at some point, the thunder died down, and the dark clouds fled in panic.
In the blink of an eye, Nantang Town, which had just been filled with thunder and heavy rain, turned into a desert drier than the Sahara.
Mold?
It’s gone long ago!
It's so funny. Even the mineral water sealed in the bottle is gone, let alone a mere fungus.
Shen Lanzhou snapped his fingers, the sea tide returned to the shadow world, and Nantang Town returned to its original appearance.
She surveyed the now-renovated Nantang Town and said, "There shouldn't be any mold here, right? Really? There's no oil in Nantang Town. I don't know why mold insists on growing here."
The system emitted a flickering light: "Maybe it's because of the 'Jew'?"
"It's not like I'm a failed art student, I won't try too hard to hesitate."
…
The atmosphere on the scene became subtly awkward.
The system couldn't stand it anymore: "Why are we standing in a pile of ruins telling boring pun hell jokes?"
Shen Lanzhou said innocently, "Weren't you the one who brought up the topic first?"
"...Ahem, let's not talk about this anymore. Where are we going next?"
After finding a relatively clean stone to sit on, Shen Lanzhou looked towards the direction of Suihua City and said, "To be honest, I'm a little unsure. The previous earthquake reminded me of the giant beast under the Qingkong base. I'm very worried."
There was no major earthquake at this time in the previous life.
So what big thing happened without her knowing?
Shen Lanzhou was very worried about the situation of the giant beast under the Qingkong base. The earthquake that affected the Shadow Realm was very likely related to it.
Judging from the nature of the scenes in various film and television works, the sealed devil will definitely break out, the sleeping terrible monster will definitely wake up, and the taboos that are repeatedly mentioned as absolutely not to be touched will definitely be broken.
In short, she was pessimistic and believed that the giant beast would definitely wake up, it was just a matter of sooner or later.
"How's the experience level in the team?"
Those who trust Shen Lanzhou can be pulled into the team function of the system.
As long as the team members kill the monsters, Shen Lanzhou, as the source, can gain extra experience points.
By simply looking at the team members and the frequency and value of experience points gained, one can reversely infer the situation of relatives and friends far away in the Malingshan Villa Base.
"Originally, there were 87 people in the Malingshan base team. Now 16 of them are dead, and 62 of them have lost their faith in you and have automatically been removed from the team.
Currently, there are only... 9 people left. Also, the ones you're closest to are still here, and the frequency of gaining experience points is pretty stable."
"Is that so?" Shen Lanzhou said calmly, "The data is better than I expected. It seems that everyone's situation is relatively safe."
Although we have made all the necessary preparations before leaving, this is not a child's game after all. Now is the end of the world where human life is worthless and organisms are evolving madly and involuntarily.
When he decided to leave, Shen Lanzhou was already mentally prepared to lose some people.
Compared to this, she was more concerned about the new word mentioned in the system's previous words: "Faith?"
"That's right, faith! This is the result of my years of research. The core of a team's function is the utilization of faith."
The system happily introduced it to Shen Lanzhou:
"Belief is magic. Lower creatures always want to rely on something, and they harbor feelings of awe, trust, love, dependence, and longing for beings far superior to themselves. These emotions are collectively called faith.
Faith is a double-edged sword. It can transform weak creatures into gods, possessing the power to move mountains and fill seas, and rewrite reality. But it can also corrode reason, twisting normal people into something incomprehensible.
The power of faith must never be devoured before one's own reality is strong enough.
Good boy, don’t just casually (emphasis) swallow something you don’t understand (emphasis)~”
Ignoring the resentful (emphasis) of a certain light ball, Shen Lanzhou stroked his chin gently: "But you used the faith of others in me in the team."
“That’s right~
The power of faith is so terrifying, what should we do?
After years of research and observation of "God", I found that the power of faith can be used as an energy source like oil to execute planned programs.
For example, regardless of spatial distance, connecting independent individuals with believers can even directly transmit energy. The experience points you receive are energy transmitted through the channel of faith. If one day you can become a national idol, you can just lie back and enjoy the experience points~"
"Then let's forget it."
Shen Lanzhou shuddered, it was a bit terrifying when he thought about it carefully.
Awe, love, dependence, desire...
Although he was reluctant to admit it, these emotions had all appeared in Shen Lanzhou.
The subject of faith was naturally her beloved "mother." To some extent, she was already a believer in the Mother of Plenty, wasn't she?
Suddenly, Shen Lanzhou realized something was amiss: "Wait a minute, you said belief is also faith?"
“When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. When you recognize some indescribable existence, you establish a connection with it. This is faith.
