I Will Teach You How to Hunt Gods-Chapter 460 - 99: Lotus of Karmic Fate

[Stop sleeping, Yun You, wake up]

[If you don't wake up, we're done for]

In the half-dream, half-awake state, Master Zero's few words suddenly penetrated Yun You's mind, pulling the girl who was wandering in her dream back to reality.

Ever since she fainted from the intense pain, her consciousness had lingered in the dreamscape. First, she dreamed of successfully slaying her foes, then, by a series of coincidences, became a respected leader, and finally sat as the "King" on the throne.

In a daze, she felt as though she had lived an exciting life, only to realize upon waking that it was but an illusion.

Although it was a bit regrettable, she was not sad.

Because she believed that as long as she continued down the right path, everything might eventually come true.

"I... how long did I sleep..."

Yun You struggled to open her eyes, barely tearing apart the blood cocoon that wrapped around her body. The pain from her limbs continued to stream in, not as severe as before, but akin to being pricked by needles, making the little girl grimace.

[About half an hour or so]

Master Zero replied casually.

"So short?"

Yun You was a bit surprised, judging from the length of the dream, she thought she had been unconscious for a few days.

But sometimes, the length of dreams is indeed completely opposite to the time spent asleep.

When there are no dreams, a person often sleeps through the entire night, but those bizarre dreams, even recurring ones, always seem long, only to realize upon waking up that it was just half an hour or even a few minutes.

[I was going to let you rest a bit longer, but time doesn't allow it]

Master Zero sighed and casually asked...

[Do you feel anything? I mean the surrounding environment]

"Environment..."

Yun You was slightly puzzled, originally wanting to look around, but suddenly sensed that she... seemed to be... falling?

No, strictly speaking, it wasn't she who was falling.

It was everything around her, mountains, rocks, the earth, cities... even the entire Floating Island was descending at a relatively slow pace.

The reason why she was still lying in the blood cocoon without flying into the air was due to two reasons—the descent speed of the Floating Island wasn't fast, or at least not yet; and the island was equipped with a gravity device.

Nonetheless, a sense of impending crisis still surged in Yun You's heart.

She wanted to ask Master Zero what had happened, but the latter preemptively recounted everything to Yun You without missing a detail.

From the fall of the Great Buddha, to Mokaka organizing the evacuation, to her later sacrifice for Tian En, and finally to Tian En exchanging her lifespan for the girl's rebirth...

Yun You's feelings evolved from initial surprise at Mokaka's transformation, to sadness and worry, and finally to relief.

She never expected that the one to save Mokaka in the end would be Tian En.

[After all, at her core, Tian En is just a child lacking love]

[When no one cared for her, she could become more extreme, more deluded, than anyone else]

[But if someone is willing to give her their all, even if just one person, she is willing to bare her heart and soul for them]

Master Zero chuckled.

[In essence, she seems somewhat similar to you... hey, the stories of the world always revolve around "love, hatred, and betrayal"]

Yun You sighed softly. Although deeply moved in her heart, she focused her thoughts on the matter at hand.

The chain reaction caused by the fall of the Great Buddha eventually brought down the Floating Island, causing it to lose part of its levitation ability and uncontrollably descend.

However, because the engine explosion was caused by the Karma Remnant Buddha's impact and not by its deliberate cutting, the damage to several engines did not reach 100%. Even though an explosion occurred, there was still some levitation ability, causing the island to descend slowly, dropping about a kilometer per minute.

Even so, when it crashes into the ground at this speed in 90 minutes, it will still cause significant damage to the earth.

If it crashes into a residential area like this, the number of residents dying under the crushing and explosion might directly exceed the total death toll on the Floating Island over the years.

"Ugh, headache."

Yun You shook her head heavily, feeling a slight numbness.

Old Jin wanted her to wreak havoc on the Floating Island, but he never said she should be a suicide truck driver.

[Stop overthinking, you little girl probably can't come up with a good solution right now]

Master Zero seemed unperturbed.

After all, it wasn't human, and didn't stand on the human side, so it didn't feel much about the impending disaster.

No matter how many people die, to it, it was just a number; as long as Yun You was safe, it wouldn't be panicked.

[Let's look at the spoils first]

[While you were sleeping like a log, I specifically helped you find the two things you wanted most, both are now in your claws]

[Remember to thank me~]

Hearing this, Yun You instinctively looked down and realized that her Red Scale Giant Claw had been in an "open" state, clutching two items, one large and one small.

She slowly opened her claw and then saw the full view of the items.

The smaller item was an ancient text with a blue cover stained thoroughly with blood, featuring an old hieroglyphic character.
