Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

When the little girl woke up, all the attention shifted to her. 

John quietly put on his shoes and socks and left the crowd, walking away from the shore. 

Now that the girl had been saved, it was time for him to step back.

The nurse, who had helped the girl recover, excitedly turned around to thank John for his heroic act, but only to be surprised that he had vanished. 

"Strange, where's the man who just saved the girl?" 

The nurse stood up and looked around, but there was no sign of John in the crowd.

The onlookers suddenly realized the hero was gone. 

"Well done, that's doing a good deed without leaving a name." 

"This is a life-saving act! He should be praised. Why did he just leave like that?" 

" ​Perhaps he likes to keep a low profile," someone suggested.

However, another person raised his phone and said to the nurse, 

"Don't worry, I've got it all on tape. You can see what he looks like in my video."

The nurse nodded and said, "Could you do me a favor and send me that video?"

...

John left the park and quickly returned home. 

Soaked through, he felt no discomfort. 

He showered quickly, changed clothes, and sat down on the sofa to meditate. 

When he was under the water saving the girl, a burst of energy had emerged from within him. 

This energy was very special. 

Now, he needed to recall it to prevent himself from forgetting how to use it.

John opened his eyes, raised his hand, and made a grasping gesture towards a cup on the table. 

The cup immediately moved, flying into John's hand. 

This shocked him. 

It was exactly like the skill he mastered in the game - "Absolute Control". 

It wasn't purely an offensive skill, more like a practical control skill. 

John had gained this divine skill at level 800, after being killed by Azazel.

"Absolute Control" was a very practical skill for John. 

He had already mastered it in the game. 

It was quite magical that he could use it in real life too. 

John had sensed a long time ago that he seemed to be able to use some of the powers from the game in reality. 

Every time he logged out of the game, his body felt like it was brimming with unlimited energy, and his vigor was never depleted.

"Are the game and reality overlapping at an accelerated rate?"

Realizing this, John's brows furrowed. 

Since defeating Azazel, John had learned many secrets of the game. 

"Godslayer" wasn't just a game. 

It was closely linked with reality, and it was developed by a consortium of large companies with the support of various governments. 

The purpose of the game was to help humans adapt to the future world.

While John didn't know all the secrets, he knew that Earth seemed to have caught the eye of some mysterious, great existence. 

This being was like a god, capable of overlaying two worlds. 

When the time comes, no one would know what kind of monsters would suddenly appear on Earth.

To prevent that day from coming, John must help the players in the game grow as fast as possible, otherwise human civilization would suffer a major blow. 

But all of this was still early. 

John understood that only when his real-life self possessed the same strength as his in-game self, the two worlds would be truly overlapped.

He put down the cup and opened a forum on his phone, hoping to catch some game news. 

Suddenly, a pinned post caught his attention. 

"Seeking the unnamed hero, who saved a little girl and left quietly. Society needs more positive energy like this!" 

Without even reading the content, John knew the post was about him.

But he didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. 

It had been about an hour, and even the "Godslayer" forum was discussing the matter. 

"Parents of the girl give an interview, hoping to personally thank the unnamed hero." 

"Shocking! The man who saved the girl is a 'Godslayer' player? XX News brings you the scoop!"

Upon seeing these posts, John immediately sat up straight. 

Could someone has figured out his identity so quickly? 

He clicked on the post. 

It turned out that the whole post was just clickbait, with no key information about John.

The news was just riding on the heat of the incident, claiming that whoever could show such kindness must be a "Godslayer" gamer, and the rest of the article was just clickbait. 

There was no substance to these marketing news.

However, there was another interesting post. 

A female player claimed to be a local TV reporter and wanted to interview the unnamed hero in the game. 

What were these people thinking, just assuming that the hero must be a "Godslayer" player? 

Just because most young people play it doesn't mean everyone does...

The female reporter's post also mentioned that since the hero left so quickly, he probably didn't want anyone to know his true identity. 

The game was a perfect place to hide one's real identity, so interviewing in the game was an excellent idea.

John had no intention of paying attention to her.

But soon, he received a text from Emma.

Emma: Johnny! I saw the news, was the one who saved the drowning little girl you?

John: How did you figure it out?

Emma: The video's gone viral on the internet. Even though the footage is blurry and there's no clear face, I recognized you at a glance!

John: Shush, don't tell anyone. I don't like to draw attention.

Emma: Oh? I can't tell anyone?

John: Right.

Emma: But I... already told my college club senior. She's doing an internship at the TV station, and she wants to interview you!

John: ...

Emma: Johnny, are you mad at me?

John: I can manage.

Emma: Johnny, please don't be mad. I'll make it up to you when I get back...

John: Then I won't be mad.

Emma: Good! I knew Johnny would treat me the best!

John: As long as you know.

Emma: Can I let my senior interview you in the game then?

John: No.

Emma: Why not? My senior is very pretty and she's the campus belle. Do you know how many pursuers she has?

John: What's that got to do with me?

Emma: But I already promised her, and she's been very good to me when we were in college. Could you do me a favor?

Seeing Emma pleading like this, John finally gave in.

John: Fine, I'm only agreeing for your sake.

Emma: Great! Thank you, Johnny! I'll tell my senior to add you in the game.

John: Okay, but I won't be online for now. Let's talk about it tomorrow.

After finishing the text with Emma, John put down his phone and prepared to go to bed. 

Today was full of events, and thinking about leading the Blue Sea team into the Spirit Realm tomorrow, he felt like there was a ton of stuff to handle. 

Although he was energized, he should get some sleep.

He returned to his bedroom, closed the door, and quickly fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

Meanwhile, in the VIP ward of the city's best hospital...

The little girl whom John had saved was lying in bed, with a look of annoyance on her face. 

"Mummy, Daddy, I've told you I'm fine. Have you found the big brother who saved me yet?" she asked.

In front of her stood a well-dressed man and woman. 

The woman gently stroked the girl's face, reprimanding with a hint of lingering fear, "When we allow you to go out and play, how could you run off like that? You even fell into the water. Next time, you can't stray from the nanny and bodyguard's sight, alright?"

The man was none other than the city's wealthiest man, Benjamin Taylor. 

He looked at his daughter with doting eyes and said, "Daddy has already sent people to look for him, so don't worry. No matter what, I have to express my gratitude to the person who saved my precious little girl!"
