"Hmm, your grandfather was quite right, I admire him greatly."
Lu Wenwu nodded solemnly, feeling increasingly fond of He Guoren in front of him.
"Tell everything in detail about the remaining two Divine Spirits, and I’ll treat you to as many egg-stuffed pancakes as you can eat once we’re done."
"Thank you for your generosity, sir!"
He Guoren’s face filled with joy, and he hurriedly sorted through the information in his mind.
"The God of Natural Redemption, commonly understood by outsiders, is actually an artificial intelligence responsible for managing an underground city called ’Nature,’ known as—Redemption."
"It is one of the highest achievents left by humans before the war, and the so-called Divine Country is precisely this underground city."
"Originally, the City of Nature was created to study ecological cycles, but when nuclear war struck, it was transford into a high-level shelter, accommodating countless dostic elites and vast resources."
"In the early stage of the Wasteland era, the Natural Sanctuary once dispatched a large number of personnel to try to conduct disaster relief and post-disaster reconstruction, but for various reasons, the results were ager."
"Perhaps because the personnel turnover rate was too rapid during the Wasteland era, after the initial few generations of survivors died, the pure Wastelanders had long forgotten our real identities and considered us as believers and even apostles of the Divine Spirits. Our explanations were pointless."
"In such circumstances, the na of the God of Natural Redemption gradually spread, and the Natural Sanctuary beca what they verbally passed on as the Divine Country, described as a place like the Celestial Kingdom."
"Unfortunately, later, due to reasons my great-grandfather was unwilling to discuss, a large-scale conflict erupted within the Natural Sanctuary. Countless technological creations were damaged, and nurous elites who should have shouldered the post-war reconstruction responsibilities died untily."
"Due to that conflict, countless seeds, data, artifacts, and biological embryos stored before the war were almost completely lost; even saying ’one in a hundred remain’ is inaccurate."
"From that point on, those remaining in the Natural Sanctuary could only barely survive, almost powerless to provide any external support, and found it difficult to dispatch personnel outside."
"Eighty-three years ago, the energy supply facilities of the Natural Sanctuary completely broke down, even leading to an explosion and collapse, burying the already scarce resources and data, along with countless lives."
"Thus, that generation had to bring out all their belongings and move to this semi-militarized nuclear power station stronghold, barely rebuilding a small cycle life pod, and assud the role of priests of the Immortal Sun God as apostles of the God of Natural Redemption."
"However, the side effects of close kin reproduction are becoming more apparent, making it increasingly difficult to produce offspring. It’s estimated that pure blood humans from the Old Era not mutated by radiation are about to face extinction."
"Ladies and gentlen, this is the entire story of the God of Natural Redemption."
"There is no Divine Country, no apostles, no paradise-like bliss, and no so-called redemption... all the promised beauty is nothing but self-delusion under despair."
Saying this, He Guoren’s mood sank a bit.
"Us remaining dozen people, along with this life pod barely accommodating us, is all that the God of Natural Redemption has left in the world."

"Very good," Lu Wenwu praised, "Then the last one remaining is the Great Evolution God."
Five quest rewards accumulated, plus two hidden tasks, one side quest, a Perfect level rating is definitely secure.
It’s just that too few hidden tasks and side quests were triggered this ti, and no special side quests from the school book were unlocked, which inevitably made Lu Wenwu feel a bit regretful.
He wondered if he could achieve [Miracle] rating this ti?
Across from them, He Guoren showed an embarrassed expression and cautiously said, "Sir, I truly don’t know what this Great Evolution God is; the ancestors didn’t record any of it."
Lu Wenwu wasn’t surprised by this, as he had already speculated, and calmly said, "No worries, tell what you know."
He Guoren pondered for a mont and said, "According to the ancestors’ descriptions, the Great Evolution God suddenly appeared on a certain day in the first year after the nuclear war ended, and on the day of its arrival, a crimson rain fell across the entire planet, and everyone witnessed Its majestic presence."
"After the crimson rain, people found that whether humans or other creatures, they underwent alterations and mutations drastically different from the past."
"These mutations often change our appearances, sotis causing death due to genetic collapse, but also bringing about three evolutionary systems that allowed mutated humans to so extent to beco immune to deadly nuclear radiation."
"I don’t know if we should be grateful to this Great Evolution God; if not for the blood rain it brought, it’s likely humans and other creatures would have perished long ago... ordinary life forms can’t survive in such radiation-stricken places."
"Are you absolutely sure, the Great Evolution God truly exists?" Lu Wenwu asked.
He Guoren nodded, "Yes, sir, I’m absolutely sure."
Kashan unusually spoke up with a question, "Have you never suspected that all of this now, including the nuclear war, might have been orchestrated by the Great Evolution God? What if It rely wanted to destroy your civilization to obtain sothing?"
He Guoren shook his head, "We have had suspicions; the ancestors even suspected that the polluted power that can spawn ghostly creatures was also brought by It, but what aning does it have? We have no ability to change any of this, and we’ve even lost the inheritance of the ancestors."
"Other than what has been said, is there anything you want to add?" Anthony asked, "For example, describe the appearance of the Great Evolution God?"
"Hmm... I’m sorry, sir, I truly can’t do it, the ancestors did not record it." He Guoren showed a bitter smile, "But my great-grandfather did ntion that the mutated parts of the evolvers appear to be similar to parts of the Great Evolution God’s body."
"I see..."
Lu Wenwu looked at the [Blood and Flesh Regeneration] talent on his personal panel, murmuring softly.
"Might it be you, my old friend."

Validation succeeded?
Lu Wenwu felt assured in heart but with increasingly nuanced eyes.
Outer God... it’s really you!
