End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 280

Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Audience with the Goddess of Life
Jeremy felt as if he was drifting in a sea composed of memories, with everything from his past rushing toward him.

He kept pondering whether he could have done better in his previous actions. Could he have made himself stronger than he was now?

After an unknown amount of time, Jeremy slowly opened his eyes.

He suddenly realized he was lying in a thatched cottage, with an ordinary villager nearby brewing herbal medicine.

Jeremy wanted to say something, but he suddenly found that he couldn’t open his mouth.

At the same time, he felt an intense thirst.

Jeremy slowly moved his hand, hoping to catch the villager’s attention.

However, he discovered that his movements were extremely difficult, even moving a finger took a long time.

After a few minutes, the villager finally noticed Jeremy’s efforts.

The villager exclaimed with surprise,

“You’re finally awake! We’ve all been very worried about you! I will inform the village chief and your companions right away!”

After expressing his excitement, the villager quickly left.

At this moment, Jeremy couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

“Could you at least give me a drink of water before you go? I’m really very thirsty! Is there anyone who can bring me a sip of water?!”

Before long, the village chief and Ritchie hurried over.

When the two of them saw Jeremy, smiles finally appeared on their faces.

“You’re finally awake! We were all very worried about you! After defeating the Fool Angel, you suddenly lost consciousness. We thought we wouldn’t be able to bring you back.”

The village chief spoke in a rush.

Wanting Jeremy to understand the current situation.

However, he suddenly realized that Jeremy seemed to want to express something.

After observing Jeremy closely for a moment, he finally understood that Jeremy wanted water.

“Quick, get him a glass of water!”

After drinking a glass of water, Jeremy was finally able to speak.

“What’s the situation now? Even though we defeated the Fool Angel, the hunting knights haven’t been completely eradicated. Have the hunting knights launched any attacks against us?”

The village chief hurriedly replied,

“The hunting knights have all returned to Hunting Castle. The serious blow to the Fool Angel must have caused panic among the hunting knights. So we don’t need to worry about their threat for the time being.”

Upon hearing the village chief’s words, Jeremy finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“What’s my current condition? How long will it take for me to fully recover?”

Since there would be no immediate danger, the next thing Jeremy needed to worry about was, of course, his own condition.

If he couldn’t recover quickly, he would end up delaying too long in this historical fog. At that point, he might not be able to swiftly unravel the secrets of the Tower of Exile.

Now it was Ritchie’s turn to respond.

Ritchie said with a hint of concern, “From what I can see, your condition seems fine. However, you definitely can’t unleash your full strength right now. Perhaps you should seek the help of a deity.”

When Ritchie mentioned the last part, Jeremy turned his gaze toward him.

“What do you mean by that? Which deity should we seek help from?”

Before Ritchie could answer Jeremy’s question, the village chief interjected directly.

“I hope you can directly meet the Goddess of Life. I saw you receive the blessings of the Goddess of Life during the battle. This means she has already recognized you.

The suggestion for you to receive help from a deity was also mine. I believe that only with the help of the Goddess of Life can your condition recover swiftly.”

The village chief spoke these words with a very sincere tone.

Ritchie was also persuaded by the village chief’s tone.

After thinking for a moment, Jeremy nodded.

“You’re right, perhaps I can only rely on the help of the Goddess of Life. But how can I go about meeting her?”

Jeremy felt that the village chief must know the answer to this question.

So he directly asked him.

The village chief responded with a smile.

“We have long prepared all the rituals, we were just waiting for your affirmative answer. Since you are willing to meet the Goddess of Life, we can certainly prepare the necessary ceremony right away.”

After saying this, the village chief, along with Ritchie, lifted Jeremy and carried him to the center of the village.

At that moment, Jeremy noticed that the center of the village was adorned with various totems.

All the totems depicted the power of life.

Meanwhile, there were various fast-growing plants surrounding the totems.

“We just need to sing the sacred hymn belonging to the Goddess of Life, and she will direct her gaze here. If she can see you, she will surely allow you to meet her directly.”

In the village chief’s description, the power of the Goddess of Life was incredibly strong.

However, Jeremy did not share this belief.

In Jeremy’s view, if the Goddess of Life were truly that powerful, how could the villagers who worship her be continuously hunted by the hunting knights?

Although Jeremy had his own thoughts, he felt it unnecessary to voice them right now.

After all, he still needed the help of these villagers.

Once the villagers had made all their preparations, they began the ceremony.

A large number of villagers surrounded Jeremy, singing the sacred hymn of the Goddess of Life.

During the course of the hymn, Jeremy suddenly felt as if he was being watched by a powerful presence.

In that moment, his consciousness was abruptly elevated to a space beyond reality.

At that time, Jeremy could still see everything within the village.

However, his expression in the village was extremely vacant.

“My consciousness seems to have detached from my body. Where am I right now? Has the Goddess of Life taken my soul?”

Jeremy muttered to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, a warm and gentle voice suddenly appeared behind him.

“I haven’t taken your soul, I’ve merely elevated your consciousness to the realm of the deities.”

Upon hearing this, Jeremy quickly turned around.

Then he saw the Goddess of Life, enveloped in green light and radiating a powerful life force.

The face of the Goddess of Life was completely obscured by the immense power of life, and Jeremy couldn’t make out her features at all.

“You are the Goddess of Life, right? Thank you so much for your help. Without your assistance, I could never have defeated the Fool’s angel!”

Jeremy did not fixate on the Goddess of Life.

He was very aware that her power far surpassed his own. If the Goddess of Life truly intended to eliminate him, it would be a simple task.

Moreover, the Goddess of Life had indeed provided him with significant help before.

Without the help of the Goddess of Life, he would never have been able to successfully defeat the Fool’s angel.

Upon hearing Jeremy’s words, the Goddess of Life smiled slightly.

“Anyone who battles the Fool’s angel will receive my blessing of strength. Because the Fool’s angel is my greatest enemy. In fact, the Fool’s angel constantly makes enemies of other deities.”

“Besides you, there is no one else who can save me. In the true timeline, I have already been destroyed by the Fool and other evil gods.”

The Goddess of Life’s words left Jeremy in shock.

Seeing Jeremy’s astonished expression, the Goddess of Life smiled and said,

“Did you really think I was unaware that we are currently trapped in the mists of history? I am merely a projection right now. The real me was long ago killed by the Fool. My powers have been completely stripped away by him.”

“I know why you have come here, so I will definitely provide you with assistance. However, whether you succeed in the end completely depends on you.”

“I will grant you powerful abilities, which will help you swiftly escape this historical fog. But the next segment of the historical fog will be even more challenging. Therefore, you cannot rush forward until you are fully prepared.”

“In the next segment of the historical fog, you will directly face the White Tower. Although this evil god is still just a projection, the next segment of the historical fog is very close to the true location of the White Tower.”

This also means that the White Tower can mobilize very powerful forces. I believe you already understand enough about him, you should be well aware of how powerful High-Dimensional Data can be when it gathers together!”

With the Goddess of Life’s reminder, Jeremy finally understood what he should do next.

Jeremy nodded solemnly.

“Thank you very much for your reminder. I will continue to rest in this historical fog for another day or two. After two days, I must move forward again. Only by passing through the historical fog can I enter the Tower of Exile.”

“If I let my fear of the White Tower in the historical fog hold me back, then I would have no way to enter the Tower of Exile, right? Wouldn’t that mean my mission would completely fail?”

In fact, Jeremy was subtly declining the Goddess of Life’s suggestion.

Upon hearing this, the Goddess of Life chuckled softly.

“Indeed, you are a very brave person. I will keep my promise, after you leave, you will possess powerful life force. However, this life force can only be used within this historical fog.”
