After Alia watched the man in front of her put the storage box full of fire elemental stones into the warehouse, she finally said, "Now that the task is done, can we have a good chat?"
"Sure~"
Ming looked around and smiled. Alia's ability was so strong that not utilizing it would be a waste and a dishonor to their chance meeting today.
"Shall we find a place to sit down and chat?" Alia suggested with a smile on her face.
"Good, let's chat in my car. It has air conditioning, and the seats are very comfortable. I can also take you for a drive to appreciate the natural scenery."
"..." Alia was taken aback. Why did he suddenly become so enthusiastic?
It was so sudden that she was a bit unaccustomed.
After the apocalypse, modern technology was unusable. Was this man's car a real car?
A moment later, Alia got into the passenger seat. The seat was indeed very comfortable, there was air conditioning, and it could even play music. The man was also a good driver.
ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm As the car moved, she stretched her hand out the window, feeling the breeze. It had been a long time since she felt this relaxed, and the feeling was truly comforting.
[Da Vinci thought and said, "To court a girl, there are three tricks. The first is to actively approach, which you've already failed. The second is to cater to her interests, which you've also failed. Now only the third trick is left..." Foodie looked at Da Vinci expectantly...]
[After watching Foodie rush out, Da Vinci looked up at the sky, "Actually, there's a fourth trick. You didn't wait to hear it....."]
"…"
"Gutmann, do you know? The world has become this way because it is God's punishment. He was so disappointed in us humans that he brought down the disaster," Alia started to share her thoughts.
"Why didn't he just destroy us completely? Wouldn't that save him from all the trouble?" Ming responded.
Ming held the steering wheel with both hands, driving carefully while looking out the window for fire elemental stones. What the woman beside him said wasn't important; what mattered was what she could do.
Of course, he also had to engage in conversation with her from time to time. If she felt bored and left, wouldn't he have wasted half a day's effort?
"Well..." Alia furrowed her brows, leaning back in her seat as if she were thinking. In reality, she was checking the progress of her mission: God's Camp: Missionary Stage 4, Ascension to Angelhood.
[Missionary Stage 4: Please make 300 non-believers sincerely believe in the existence of God before the end of Chapter 4, and that the current state of the world is God's punishment for humanity. Have them join the Angel Legion and serve God to obtain redemption.]
[Please complete the mission promptly, do not disappoint God.]
[Reminder: Do not reveal your identity to the target before they sincerely believe in God.]
[Rewards:]
[1. 100 points of free attributes]
[2. Random talent awakening once]
[3. Angel Ring *1]
[Progress of Sincere Believers: 0/300]
[Progress of Joining the Legion: 0/300]
"Ah~" Alia sighed, recalling the time when she was in danger in the dungeon and received salvation, becoming a servant of God.
Since then, she had believed even more in the existence of God. She knew that these missions were tests given to her by the omnipotent God, so she strove to complete them.
After completing the first three stages, she received generous rewards from "God". Now, it was the fourth stage, and as long as she completed it, she would receive an Angel Ring and become a real angel, one step closer to God.
[Your Merlin and Little Bear continued on their journey to find poisonous substances, encountering a giant poisonous scorpion. Merlin told Little Bear that they should win others over with kindness, starting with courtesy and then resorting to force if necessary...]
[Merlin approached the scorpion and communicated with it, asking if it wanted to live or die. Merlin told Little Bear not to attack; the scorpion was willing to return with her and become her follower...]
"..."
Ming licked his lips, thinking that Merlin was really a considerate little creature, already knowing how to be self-sufficient. Perfect.
He wondered what it would feel like to have scorpion venom released onto his body. The thought was damn thrilling.
"Gutmann, God didn't destroy us all because He wanted to give us another chance, an opportunity for self-redemption," Alia explained.
Alia turned her head to look at the man driving attentively next to her. His tall nose and lips were rather charming~
"Hmm."
Ming nodded, continuing to gaze out the window. He wasn't particularly concerned about what she was saying; as long as she was happy, he would be too.
Swoosh!
In the wilderness, the black off-road vehicle came to a halt, and a man and a woman got out.
The man took out an empty storage box and placed it on the ground, pointing to the fire elemental stones on the wind-eroded cliff in front of them. The woman swung her narrow sword, guiding the stones into the box. Afterward, the man packed up the box, and the two got back into the vehicle, continuing their journey in the wilderness.
"Do you believe what I just said?" Alia asked eagerly, wanting to know the answer. As long as he believed, she would have completed her mission.
"Believe? Of course, I believe. I'll believe whatever you say," Ming said, continuing to drive. For the sake of the fire elemental stones, he'd even believe her if she said she was the Virgin Mary.
He had principles when it came to treating friends.
[Your Foodie approached Merlin and clearly relayed Da Vinci's plan... Merlin croaked in response, "Great, you truly are a genius at undercover work!" Foodie cocked its head proudly. "Of course, I'm the best at undercover work..."]
[Your Da Vinci crouched in the distance, feeling something was off about the scene. It understood - Foodie had been turned, a traitor... Da Vinci glared at the rattlesnake swishing its tail next to it. "Don't you know it's forbidden to make a racket in public places? You want to become snake soup?" Da Vinci collected the rattlesnake ...]
"..."
Ming swerved the steering wheel sharply, avoiding a rock ahead while looking out the window for the next target.
Alia was thrilled; he believed so quickly, which made her think that he must have been arranged by God to be here.
Checking mission progress:
[Sincere Believers Progress: 0/300]
[Joining the Legion Progress: 0/300]
"..."
Alia looked back at the man beside her.
You are a liar!
Swoosh!
Ming stepped on the brake, excitedly saying, "There's more! Quickly, get out of the car."
"..."
Alia looked at his excitement and suddenly understood - this guy was treating her like a tool.
You are a big liar!
"Get out of the car, we're short on time~" Ming knocked on the car window. The storage box was already prepared; it only needed Alia's work.
"You didn't believe what I said, did you?" Alia got out of the car, looked at the man in front of her, and stared into his eyes. "Please take off your glasses, look into my eyes, and answer my question."
Ming scratched his head, "Do your eyes hold the correct answer?"
"..."
The wind stirred up the fine sand, passing between the two of them~
...
Ming took off his glasses, his pair of black eyes looking at Alia, "Believe me, I truly believe everything you've said."
"Really...?" Alia avoided his gaze because his eyes were electrifying, and so deep... it seemed like they could see through everything about her, which made her scalp tingle.
She checked the progress:
[Sincere Believers Progress: 0/300]
[Joining the Legion Progress: 0/300]
"..."
Alia looked at the man in front of her, "You... you big liar~"
Ming looked at her, "When you get agitated, you cracked again~ Seriously~"
