Ever since transmigrating, Luo Yu had been wondering how to survive a little longer, and then a little longer still, as a cannon-fodder character destined to die because the heroine unleashed an evil god.
In the end, he found the answer: make everyone in this world except the villains work themselves to the bone.
As long as everyone was strong enough, the evil god would be done for before it could even emerge.
Everyone else: Luo Yu, take a break. We don't even know where the evil god is yet.
Luo Yu: Take a break? How can we rest? We're only human, and the evil god hasn't appeared yet, so we don't know how strong it is. We can only stand against the gods if we reach the summit.
Everyone else: What does it take to reach the summit?
Luo Yu: Just keep pushing yourselves, and you'll get there eventually.
Everyone else: ...My silence is deafening.
So, as soon as the evil god poked its head out, a crowd beat it back into its original form: a rock.
Every day, they smash it to pieces, then put it back together.
