Li Huan transmigrates,
and somehow lands in an ancient, unfamiliar world: the Wilderness Continent.
It is an era of fallen old gods, where believers and nonbelievers mingle, and beastfolk, giant plants, and monsters roam the continent, though their numbers are gradually dwindling.
Li Huan, dressed in strange clothes, falls from the sky. The believers' tribe takes her arrival as a miracle and calls her a messenger of the gods, until...
Li Huan falls ill from the change in climate and environment.
"The gods' messenger can't even heal herself..."
"I knew she wasn't one."
"This is the punishment for pretending to be a divine messenger."
"Huh? If we take her in, won't the gods be angry with us?"
"...Maybe we should sacrifice her to the Forest God."
Li Huan listens as they brazenly discuss their plan to sacrifice her right in front of her. Her arm hangs limply, her lips press together, and she struggles to speak.
She already told them she wasn't one, but nobody believed her.
Too weak to walk, Li Huan is carried deep into the forest.
After incomprehensible chanting and baffling dances, everyone reverently leaves the carefully chosen sacrificial altar.
Li Huan lies there waiting to die until nightfall, her lips parched and pale.
Just before she faints, a text bubble appears over a plant beside her:
[Water Berry: Thin-skinned, juicy, mildly sweet, and non-toxic.]
[Mutation probability: 0.02%, spiritual energy content: 1%.]
Ha, I must be so hungry that I'm hallucinating.
Li Huan thinks.

Later, Li Huan survives near the edge of the forest with the help of her "Inspection Skill."
She makes fires, cooks, farms, and builds a little house.
But danger is everywhere.
Plants and monsters can mutate at any moment, leaving Li Huan unable to sleep through the night. She has to cook, farm, keep watch, defend herself, and inspect every plant and animal near her home each day. It's an ordeal.
One night, while she is dozing, a suddenly mutated bamboo stalk lifts her and her roof into the air. At last, Li Huan makes up her mind...
She packs her things and approaches a beastfolk tribe that has recently settled near the edge of the forest.
"Excuse me, are you looking for a priest?"
Li Huan asks with a smile, looking at the group of ancient beastfolk before her, all powerfully built and radiating a sense of security.
*
The news of an all-knowing priest in the Man Tribe gradually spreads through the surrounding area.
She can heal illnesses, grow crops, build structures, predict disasters, bless children to successfully transform into beasts, and even bring giant plants and monsters to heel. It seems there's nothing she can't do.
Under her guidance, the Man Tribe grows steadily, and accidents and deaths decrease dramatically.
They all say she is a new god.
