Absolute Gate

Chapter 23 The Dark Tunnel
If the air shield is linked to the electrical energy it carries, then it's not too far-fetched for the multiverse power to be linked to the Bitcoin it carries.

He still had some doubts about why the power of diversity was measured in Bitcoin. For example, wasn't this an ancient system? Why was it related to Bitcoin, a modern product?

But Wu held back and didn't press the matter on the spot.

Yang Chunsha was getting impatient: "Little friend, you're not from a 985 university, so why are you at the Lushan base?"

Wu Zhong said, "Huh? Who said I wasn't? I'm the one in charge of raising pigs at 985. Every day, I have to feed the live pigs into a pipe at regular intervals."

"As for Unit 985, I didn't even know the name of my workplace before, and I always encountered some strange things, even life-threatening ones."

"Until this time it got really outrageous, ghosts and spirits appeared, I almost died, I couldn't stand it for another day..."

He was just talking nonsense, and even Endless Summer couldn't help but glance at him.

However, his emotions were very genuine, showing an anxiety about the unknown.

Yang Chunsha not only believed it, but was also very surprised.

"985 University graduates raising pigs?"

"Sending live pigs into the pipeline? Why? What are they being fed? And is there a monster being suppressed on Mount Lu?"

Wu was surprised; he hadn't expected that the other party wouldn't know about the 'happy zombie' thing.

Even if Yang Chunsha is a nobody in the world of supernatural beings, he is still a local bigwig. How could he not even know that there are zombies being raised in the underground base?

It seems that 985 universities are very good at keeping secrets, which explains why their zombie-raising facilities are so ordinary and not particularly guarded.

In their minds, probably no one in the martial arts world knew about this strange and calamistic object.

This shows that Endless Summer is not simple at all; she is extremely powerful.

Wu Zhong recalled that when Wu Jinxia told him about the barking of dogs, the people in Unit 985 were very shocked and asked, "How did you know?"

In the realm of calamities, intelligence reigns supreme.

Endless Summer's level of knowledge is unlike that of an ordinary mercenary.

The reason Lu's group locked him up was because they suspected he knew a lot and might have intelligence-related abilities.

Wu Zhong thought about many things for a while, and even considered that this might be related to the church organization mentioned by Wu Jinxia.

"Little friend, don't be like him and keep quiet."

"Brother Xia is a top-tier mercenary. He personally led you into this circle, so you must have extraordinary skills."

"If you need any help in Jiangxi Province, you can ask your sister for help. Just call her private number to avoid the platform taking a cut."

Yang Chunsha has an intellectual and aloof appearance, but she always tries her best to build relationships.

A slender hand holding a business card was handed over from the front seat. Looking at the white, lotus-root-like arm, Wu Zhong instinctively reached out and took the business card.

De Biao, Business Manager, Hengtuo Engineering Construction Company.

Wu Zhong raised an eyebrow. How could such a beautiful woman have a name like Debiao? This must be a fake identity.

It's not surprising that everyone in the supernatural world has a fake identity.

Endless Summer casually commented, "Oh? Contact me by phone?"

Yang Chunsha said nonchalantly, "Of course, important matters must be handled through plants, but minor matters don't matter... It all depends on you guys, doesn't it?"

"In Jiangxi Province, I take any job, whether it's a safe house, forging documents, finding people or things, providing rhyming escorts, stealing secrets, or buying intelligence... any small or miscellaneous task can be handled by me."

“The price is fair, and I accept cash.”

Wu Zhong couldn't help but retort, "Buy intelligence? From you? You don't even know why a 985 university graduate feeds pigs..."

Yang Chunsha was a little embarrassed after being rebuked by a novice.

But she still explained, "Little friend, it doesn't necessarily have to be aimed at the powerful forces or big shots in the world of disasters."

"I can handle things for ordinary people with ease."

Wu finally understood; she was referring to mundane social matters that ordinary people could handle by consulting her.

It seems that the competition among the lowest-ranking mercenaries in the Disaster Realm is fierce.

That so-called mercenary club platform probably has very few simple missions; they mostly involve other calamities and monsters.

Once a mission is associated with an official department or a major power, lower-level mercenaries dare not accept it.

Furthermore, Yang Chunsha seemed to only accept assignments from within her own province, making life even more difficult.

However, Wu Zhong said, "You're still complaining about being poor. This time, the reward for taking our job is 20 bits. Even if the platform takes half, you'll still earn 10 million."

"It can be said that business may not open for three years, but once it does open, it will sustain them for three years."

His words revealed his true nature as an ordinary person.

Yang Chunsha was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Little friend, there are only 2100 million Bitcoins in total."

"This is the only vessel besides the Awakened One himself that can store multi-dimensional power."

"Moreover, carrying it can increase the upper limit of the multi-dimensional power out of thin air."

"Currently, there is no market for these products, mainly because they are monopolized by powerful countries and forces. No matter how high the price is, no one will sell them, so the transaction price has temporarily stopped rising. But if they were really willing to put them all up for sale, the price would only be higher!"

There are only 94 wallets worldwide that hold more than 10,000 Bitcoins.

“Someone as insignificant as me only has 16.233 coins. It’s rare to get 10 bits in this deal, so why would I exchange it for cash? I’m not that poor.”

Wu Zhong's pupils dilated in shock; he really had no knowledge of this area.

Only now did I realize the true value of the 30,000-bit USB drive inside Endless Summer's belly.

This isn't just about the 30 billion; it's about the fact that, given Bitcoin's ability to increase the storage limit of multi-dimensional power, being able to hold so much inherently means that Endless Summer is no small fry in the Cataclysmic Realm.

It's hard to say whether he's a big shot in the industry, but he's definitely a top-tier figure.

Judging solely from the sheer volume of power, it is undoubtedly in the TOP100, or even the TOP50, and could potentially rank even higher.

No wonder Yang Chunsha looks aloof, yet she still clings to Wujinxia... Today's 20-bit task is already a huge order for her.

"Brother Xia, we'll have to take a detour next," Yang Chunsha suddenly said.

Wu Zhong then noticed that Yang Chunsha seemed to have driven the car to a remote, desolate place where there was no paved road.

Immediately afterward, Yang Chunsha pressed something, and all the car windows rolled up their shutters, plunging everything into darkness, including the windshield! "What are you doing?" Wu Zhong's muscles tensed, and he quickly looked at Wu Jinxia.

Endless Summer remained calm, though she was a little curious: "Everyone has secrets."

"It seems your method is very simple and crude... it's a real secret passage."

Yang Chunsha was still driving, but the car was noticeably bumpier.

"To survive in the world of supernatural disasters, you have to have some skills, right? Although I can't compare to you, Brother Xia, but..."

"Throughout Jiangxi Province, wherever you are, if you want to evade all checkpoints and avoid detection by 985 universities, just look for me."

"Gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts."

With one hand on the steering wheel, she suddenly raised the other and snapped her fingers.

"A Multifaceted Moment!"

Her demeanor suddenly changed; her hair flew up, and her V-neck shimmered.

With a flick of her hand, she took out a leather-bound book from a drawer beside her and held it in front of her.

The leather-bound book, with its automatic page-turning mechanism, also shone brightly.

"Earth Escape·Yellow Spring Marsh!"

With a sharp shout, the car shook and tilted.

At the same time, she floored the accelerator, and a strong feeling of weightlessness threw Wu Zhong into the air.

Based on gravity, the car appears to be plunging down a steep slope!
"Fuck..."

Wu Zhong gripped the window handle with one hand and hurriedly fastened the rear seatbelt with the other.

After a while, with a thud, the Bentley landed and began to drive straight.

The road was still bumpy, but there was no more steep drops.

"The Swamp of the Underworld? Is this a ninjutsu?" Wu finally came to his senses and complained.

Endless Summer put down her grip: "You believe everything people say? Have you ever seen ninjutsu requiring a book to cast spells?"

Wu blinked, sighing at how treacherous people can be.

Even the names of the moves have to be made up.

Yang Chunsha tossed the book onto the passenger seat and adjusted her glasses with her fingertips: "Welcome to my dark tunnel."

Endless Summer knocked on the window: "You sealed the window, of course it's dark."

"Open it and see."

Yang Chunsha thought for a moment and smiled: "Okay, it doesn't matter if Brother Xia takes a look."

She reopened the window shade, but it was still dark outside.

Fortunately, there were lights inside the car, and with their help, Wu was able to see that they were traveling through a dark and narrow underground tunnel.

The surrounding area is full of irregular rock walls, and soil is scarce!
Clearly, this is already quite deep underground.

Every now and then, there were curves ahead, but Yang Chunsha was familiar with the road, turning the steering wheel with one hand and easily passing through without hitting the wall.

They would even encounter multiple forks in the road, and Yang Chunsha would choose one to enter without hesitation, even though these tunnels had no signs or markings.

She was driving very fast in these narrow, tunnel-like places, which really tested her familiarity with the roads.

Wu Zhong noticed that the compass ornament on the steering wheel was spinning wildly! Clearly, in this area, compasses and other orientation devices were not working properly.

Anyone else would definitely get lost.

"No wonder you dared to take on this mission; it turns out you dug such a complex and dark tunnel underground."

"Could it be that it's spread throughout Jiangxi Province?"

Endless Summer was also very surprised, never expecting that a local mercenary was so capable of secretly carrying out such a large project.

Yang Chunsha chuckled: "Doing business isn't easy. Some people are born rich, unlike me, I have to work hard."

“Jiangxi Province is mountainous, and tunnels are specially dug underground in the poor mountains and barren hills. They are crisscrossed and interconnected, enough to cover all cities and counties in Jiangxi Province and even spread to the surrounding provinces.”

"You can go to any of the cities and counties surrounding Jiangxi Province from here!"

"Of course, if you really are going to be trapped in the city center, then I won't dare to take on this mission. I'm afraid I won't even be able to get out of the city."

"But outside the city, without exaggeration, there is no one I, the Dark Queen, cannot hide!"

"These 20 bits are absolutely worth every penny!"

Wu Jinxia finally looked at her properly and nodded slightly: "Indeed, I'll look for you when I come to Jiangxi Province for missions in the future."

Yang Chunsha beamed with joy; she couldn't wait for repeat customers, especially a formidable figure like Wujinxia.

Wu Zhong asked, "Sister, this tunnel is so big and so deep, are you all alone?"

Yang Chunsha smoothed her hair: "Of course not, I also have helpers. Each person is responsible for a section, and we put it all together in the end."

“They are all very powerful individuals, including gold-level and even platinum-level mercenaries.”

"When you're out in the world, everyone has connections. What if someone betrays you? I wouldn't dare be a lone wolf in this supernatural realm."

Wu finally sensed that the other party was subtly flexing their muscles.

That's true. The person has already been brought into the tunnel. What if Endless Summer kills the person and leaves on her own?

Although without Yangchunsha to guide us, we would definitely get lost here, but there's no guarantee that Wujinxia might have other ways to find our way.

Therefore, Yang Chunsha also took the opportunity to say that she had powerful backers and influence.

Thinking about it more closely, the woman deliberately hung a compass on the steering wheel so that people would see clearly that once they entered the tunnel, the compass would spin erratically, as a reminder to the passengers: if she died, no one would know the way.

Wu Zhong wiped his face: "My god, he's all scheming."
