Chapter 172 The Central Continent Monkey-Slaying Squad [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

In a flash, the group acquired the [Evolution Mask] and [Spirit Arrow].

After all, he was a blank slate fourth grader who couldn't even compare to Zhao Zhuikong, and he was also weak in terms of mental strength.

Faced with the encirclement of these four generals, there was absolutely no possibility of failure, and Zero Point didn't even have to make a move.

"A pseudo-Tier 4 beginner who has fallen into inner demons, and the four of us have already been very restrained! In total, we only got 9 D-level side quests and a little over 6,000 points."

Zhang Jie rubbed his hands together, indicating that the matter was not their fault.

"As for this [arrow], since there is no danger in obtaining it, there is no extra reward. My suggestion is to study it, as using it directly is very risky."

In the original story, the Central Continent team defeated the monster that evolved because of the Golden Mask. Zheng Zha received one B-level side quest and 5000 reward points. All participants received one C-level side quest.

Their ratings were merely at the base B-level side quest level. Adding Zhan Lan... they were actually far superior to the Central Continent Team during the original reconstruction period.

The mechanics of the Main God Space are really hard to handle; good performance is punished, while bad performance is rewarded.

Aside from Zhang Jie spending one D-level side quest as an entry ticket to Jurassic World, the rest of the side quests are used to redeem the genie who is unable to fight.

Excluding Na'er who was resurrected, the Central Continent Team has eight humanoids without combat capabilities, which is just enough.

Fang Ge first gestured for Chu Xuan to reach out and take the Evolution Mask and the Spirit Arrow.

[Obtain the story item, the Evolution Mask. Those who have unlocked the fourth stage of the Gene Lock can wear this mask and have one chance to experience the feeling of the fifth stage. Anyone who has not unlocked the fourth stage of the Gene Lock or is above will go out of control indefinitely if they wear this mask.]

[Obtain the story item, the Arrow of the Mind. Those who have reached the third stage of unlocking their genetic lock can use this item to pierce their body. There is a chance to awaken the nascent form of the Light of the Mind. If it fails to awaken, it will spiral out of control indefinitely.]

"Are these two things reliable?"

As a fellow fourth-order gene lock unlocker, Zhan Lan couldn't help but ask, "For example, this mask, does it mean that if I wear it, I can experience what it's like to become an immortal or a saint?"

"Unreliable, don't use it." Fang Ge shook his head abruptly.

The prototypes for these two items are the Stone Mask and the Arrow from the JoJo series, respectively.

However, both are modified versions. The former cannot create a true ultimate life form, while the latter can only awaken the rudiments of the Light of the Mind in those who unlock the third or fourth-tier gene locks. Both carry the risk of collapse due to inner demons and cellular frenzy.

It's not a big deal if you don't dare use it on Reincarnators, but it doesn't matter if you put it on the consumable Reincarnators.

After awakening to the fourth tier and the Light of the Mind, one uses the Demon Seed of the Dao Heart as a sacrifice...

It only took about a hundred Zhui Kong brothers to solve Zhao Yingkong's problem.

He added, "This thing is only for the Samsara Army to use. We'll have to get them some supporting equipment later... How's your giant snake?"

Even if the humans that were devoured were just beginners at level four, they were still genuine level four beginners.

"It has already grown its seventh snake head, and there is still a little room for improvement." Zhan Lan smiled.

"The progress space issue is easy to handle... but you'll be in big trouble when you get to Jurassic World."

Fang Ge grinned and began the next step of the operation: "I, Ying Kong, Zheng Zha, and Zhan Lan will exchange for 3 days of the Legend of Gods and Demons, and our destination is [Amshe Oasis]."

“That place isn’t…” Zheng Zha frowned; he remembered the coordinates.

It was there that he obtained the answer to "Loli is not Loli".

"Just replace them and that'll be fine. Luo Gandao's mechs and Bawang's mechanical swarm both depend on the four of us on this trip!"

Luo Gandao and Ba Wang were utterly bewildered upon hearing this. What could possibly require the intervention of the Central Plains' fourth-tier F4? Were you kidding me?

—The answer is Gundam Monkey!

The four figures appeared together in front of the woods in the Amshe Oasis.

More than four years have passed since Zheng Zha last lost control of his inner demons here. Nature has completely repaired the traces of the past, and everything seems as if nothing ever happened.

"Didn't you notice that your reward points increased after you went back?" Fang Ge suddenly asked Zheng Zha.

"If you put it that way, I do have a vague recollection... it was probably around a few hundred points."

Zheng Zha scratched his head. "Is there some kind of enemy here?"

“There are monkey-like creatures.” Zhan Lan’s mental scan revealed some clues: “They are also carrying weapons…some flintlock muskets.”

“I remember we didn’t take this route back then.”

Zhao Yingkong could easily recognize that this was the path to the Scorpion King's Pyramid. Logically, one should pass through this forest.

Of course, Fang Ge was already at the fourth level at that time. He used his profound inner energy to protect himself and managed to withstand the protective runes above. He then swiftly struck down the Scorpion King.

Therefore, the natives in the oasis... or rather, the monkeys that could evolve infinitely in the original world, were able to be preserved here.

He knew these native monkeys were, under normal circumstances, a small, agile, primitive tribe. They used blowguns, wielded stone knives and axes, and didn't even have sharp bows and arrows.

It sounds easy to solve, and it is, but once you inflict damage on them, their weapons will be rapidly upgraded.

And they are like those who possess the ability "A knight never dies unarmed," which they can fully master and utilize.

Kill a few dozen monkeys, and the monkeys will transform from primitive humans into warriors clad in armor and wielding long swords and axes.

Kill a few hundred monkeys, and they will transform from classical warriors into an early shooting army of flintlock muskets, ready to be shot in a line.

Killing a few thousand monkeys would allow the shooting force to quickly evolve to the level of World War I, or even World War II.

Equipped with large-caliber rifles, staffed with heavy snipers, and equipped with tanks and rocket launchers, it resembles an elite armored division...

But if tens of thousands of them were killed... In the original timeline, Zheng Zha felt that the monkeys would eventually come after him in Gundams.

However, at that time, he resurrected Chu Xuan and obtained the suggestion to use incendiary bombs, without directly confronting the enemy. After borrowing the power of nature, the monkeys' technological iterations stagnated at the level of World War II, when casualties were in the thousands, without any further upgrades.

Fang Ge's goal, however, was to exterminate the monkeys.

He knew that the biological classes that the Supreme God and the Cycle of Reincarnation could mass-produce... had an upper limit.

That is... Level 4, Beginner.

The upper limit of Zhongzhou F4 is obviously going to exceed this limit... Of course, the number will definitely be less.

Fortunately, the main god wouldn't be so deranged as to create thousands of fourth-tier monkeys. Based on Fang Ge's experience, a few dozen would be more than enough to cause chaos!

"You guys remember my three-stage score-farming comment, right?"

Fang Ge grinned: "This time, I'll show you the God's simple and straightforward [Difficulty Adjustment Mode]."
