2 Dead Silence

After reading the black words on the scroll, Gu Nan's eyes, burning with black flames, fixed on the couple before they could react. In the disbelieving eyes of the two men, the skeleton waved its scythe and swung it across their bodies.

However, there was no scene of flying flesh and blood. The scythe passed through their bodies as if it were air. Only their vacant eyes knew that their lives had been reaped by the scythe called death.

Without wavering, Gu Nan looked at the text that reappeared on the scroll in his hand.

[The thief couple's prayers have been completed, merit +10]

[Harvesting fetuses born from sin, completed, death value +1]

After doing all this, Gu Nan looked at Jack, who was sleeping in the room, and his information also appeared on the scroll.

Name: Jack Daniel

Age: 50

Time of death: 60

Records: parents are dead, wife and children are all alive, family is happy.

Seeing that he was not a sinner, Gu Nan took back the scythe in his hand, rolled up the scroll, and returned to the church with stiff steps.

As for the couple who had no interest on earth, after the villagers wake up tomorrow, someone will naturally take care of them.

After returning to the church, the power of death around the skeleton was about to dissipate. Seeing this, Gu Nan also released the fusion with the skeleton.

In an instant, Gu Nan, wearing black robes, reappeared between the two statues of gods. After using the last bit of death power to return the skeleton to the cemetery, her invisible body seemed about to dissipate.

"The current power has only blessed three people, plus harvested the lives of three people. Is it exhausted?"

Feeling that the two divine powers in his body were nearly dry, Gu Nan couldn't help but want to leave this small village.

However, thinking of his low-level position, she gave up the idea.

"It still needs to rely on this isolated village to develop slowly, and there may not be large villages or towns around."

"Even if there were, I wouldn't be able to steal from those higher-ranking gods."

Gu Nan stopped thinking about this and looked at a pool behind the church statue.

One of the lilac flowers stood erect in the center, surrounded by a circle of green leaves surrounded by purple flowers.

Gu Nan then picked off a petal on the edge and gently put it into his mouth. The petal melted the moment it entered his mouth.

What followed was the rapid recovery of the two divine powers in the body. After a while, it had returned to the upper limit of the body's capacity.

"This Purple Blue Leaf Flower saves me a lot of time in recovering my divine power."

Gu Nan said softly. This pearl purple light green leaf flower has been blooming since she traveled through time. According to her estimation, it has been there for at least 80 years.

Every day, this flower absorbs the aura of life and death floating in the village, and at the same time emits an aura that constantly nourishes her invisible body.

After saying that, Gu Nan took out a jade bottle containing fresh blood from under his black robe and slowly poured it into the stamens.

Seeing the purple flowers becoming more and more prosperous after absorbing the blood, Gu Nan also put the empty bottle back into his black robe, took out the scroll, and checked his information.

[Name: Gu Nan]

[Priesthood: Servant of Death]

[Divine position: Bodhisattva's named disciple]

[Death value: 16]

[Merit: 60]

"You can advance to the Bodhisattva priesthood after completing four prayers, and you can advance to the Death God priesthood only if your death value is still far behind."

By praying for ten points of merit and harvesting one death point, Gu Nan expected to be promoted to the Bodhisattva priesthood in a month or two. However, for the Death God priesthood, there were still too few people in the village who were burdened with sins.

Now every day, except when doing errands, Gu Nan would possess a skeleton or a spiritual object, and spend the rest of the time floating around the purple flowers, nourishing his invisible body.

Today's body is much more solid than a year ago, and some small items can be easily picked up, unlike before, where everything had to be accomplished by divine power.

Gu Nan, who had turned into a demigod, no longer needed sleep, just hovering around Zihua all night.

When the sun emerges from the top of the mountain and the first ray of sunlight shines on the church, a new day begins.

Today's village is different from the previous calm. In front of Old Jack's house, villagers who got up early are surrounded. It seems that the bodies of the thief and his wife have been discovered.

But at this time, Gu Nan had no intention of caring about this matter. She was now in another dimension.

This is a dark, square-like space. In the center is a throne that exudes a cold atmosphere. At the edge of the space is a medicinal field that exudes bursts of fragrance, which is in sharp contrast to the cold throne.

There are a few beads of emerald green grass planted in the medicine garden. As for the purpose of this grass, Gu Nan doesn't understand it. He just knows that it is in this space.

In the huge space, Gu Nan sat alone on the throne in the center, holding a book called "Book of the Dead" in his hand.

This book is the best treasure Gu Nan has found in this companion space. It records the spells and rules required by various gods of death.

However, with her current priesthood, she has been studying the first spell on the first page for more than a year, but she has not been able to learn it.

Now, Gu Nan, who felt that he had made some progress, began to study this spell again.

The methods and circuits of the spell were replayed over and over again in her mind. Suddenly, her consciousness fell into darkness. All perceptions and feelings seemed to be taken away at this moment, leaving only the boundless surroundings. Endless darkness.

The breath of death kept coming towards Gu Nan, and she endured the unknown and fear.

I don't know how long it took, an hour, a day, three days, a week.

Finally, when Gu Nan's consciousness was about to dissipate, the feeling of deathly silence suddenly disappeared, and her perception and her feeling returned again.

A spell called "Dead Silence" also appeared in Gu Nan's mind.

Suddenly, an inexplicable joy surged into her heart, her mouth could not help but tilt upward slightly, and her eyes revealed unconcealable joy.

Feeling that her mind was unstable, Gu Nan immediately shook his head vigorously and gradually calmed down.

"Hoo~"

After taking a long breath, Gu Nan began to study the first and only death spell she had mastered.

Death Silence: Based on the divine power of the God of Death, it turns into a field. In the field, living creatures are extinct.

Seeing such a simple and powerful power of Death Silence, Gu Nan couldn't help but want to go to the village to cast the field and experience the power of Death's field.

But in the end, she suppressed this impulse. After all, this village was his only territory at the moment. How could she get promoted if he died.

Calm

Gu Nan slowly closed his eyes, leaned against the cold throne, and slowly let the heat in his heart subside before opening his eyes again.

By the time Gu Nan returned to the church, it was already ten days after the death of the couple.

Looking at the souls of the couple with empty eyes, words also appeared on the scroll in Gu Nan's hand.

[Saving two lost souls, merit points +20]

Needless to say, Gu Nan gathered the Bodhisattva's divine power on his fingertips and tapped the foreheads of the two dead souls in front of him.

The couple took their sins with them to the land of reincarnation, fearing that they would be either pigs or chickens in their next life.

[Redeem the sinful couple, completed, merit points +20]
