Tomb raiding: Scientists dissect the Queen Mother of the West

Wait a minute, do as I say.

[This Queen Mother of the West is a madwoman who pursues immortality.]

If you simply say you possess the secret to immortality, she will not harm you.

I have a fragmented version of the secret to immortality here. You can purchase it once you've accumulated enough points.

[By the way, don't you know the plot?]

Qi Mo silently replied with an "Mm".

He spends all his time on research and has no interest in the outside world, so naturally he has never read any related books or watched any related films or TV shows.

However, the longevity technique mentioned by the system earlier piqued his interest.

His gaze shifted.

I knew it!

Now, let me briefly tell you the plot.

[This takes place a thousand years before the story begins. The woman before us is none other than the Queen Mother of the West. As I mentioned earlier, she is someone who seeks immortality...]

With the system's explanation, Qi Mo had a general understanding of the plot.

He glanced at the Queen Mother of the West, who was speaking to him respectfully, and secretly sneered.

Do you want to live forever?

Okay, I'll help you!

However, this comes at a price: a thousand years from now, I will take your body away...

"My Lord, your descent to the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West is a great fortune for all of us in the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West."

"If possible, please stay in the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West for a few more days, so that my people may see your majestic and sacred appearance."

The Queen Mother of the West looked at Qi Mo with a smile on her face, a mixture of admiration and a deeply hidden malice.

She had been pursuing immortality for many years, and now that a deity had appeared who could grant her this wish, she naturally couldn't let him go.

Qi Mo was so clever that he knew what the Queen Mother of the West was up to without even thinking.

"Queen Mother of the West, I ask you, do you desire the secret to immortality?"

The Queen Mother of the West's pupils contracted.

Her breathing became a little rapid.

She certainly wanted the secret to immortality.

What does the deity mean by this? Is he going to bestow upon her the secret of immortality?

"My lord, I do indeed desire the elixir of immortality."

In front of others, she always referred to herself as "this king," but in front of Qi Mo, she dared not refer to herself that way.

After all, the person in front of them was a god from the heavens.

Qi Mo smiled slightly, staring at the Queen Mother of the West:

"One month from now, I will cause a star to fall into your territory."

"This star contains powerful energy that can help you achieve immortality."

"However, this can only be successful if it is combined with my divine longevity technique."

"As for the secret to immortality, I will give it to you in a month."

Given the Queen Mother of the West's desire for immortality, she will surely fall into the trap I have set.

In this way, a thousand years later, I can dissect her and conduct research on immortality.

Thinking of this, Qi Mo became somewhat excited and almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.

No, I have to control myself. I can't laugh; I can't let this tall and robust woman see through my act.

"My lord, is what you say true?"

"No, no, no, it was a slip of the tongue. How could I doubt the supreme deity?"

"Since you've said so, it must be true."

Fearing to offend Qi Mo, the deity, the Queen Mother of the West quickly apologized.

Just now, she was too excited and lost her composure, even showing disrespect to the deity.

Fortunately, she made up for it in time.

Qi Mo understood the principle that too much talk leads to mistakes, and he wasn't going to continue rambling on with the Queen Mother of the West.

"Arrange a room for me, I'm going to cultivate."

The Queen Mother of the West's eyes flickered.

Indeed, they are gods from the heavens above, otherwise they wouldn't need to cultivate.

She arranged for two maids to lead Qi Mo to a newly renovated side hall.

As soon as Qi Mo's figure disappeared, the smile on west Wangmu's face vanished, and her expression became somewhat uncertain.

She dared not fully trust this suddenly appearing deity, but she also dared not offend him.

Let's see if any stars fall into our territory in a month. If not...

…………

Wake up, someone's coming!

Qi Mo, who was resting with his eyes closed on the bed, immediately opened his eyes, sat cross-legged, and pretended to be cultivating.

He knew that the people outside were there to spy on him.

It seems that the Queen Mother of the West did not fully trust him.

As expected of the ruler of a country, he is indeed not as simple as he seems.

The maid outside, peeking through a small hole in the wall, saw Qi Mo cultivating, then turned and left, heading towards the palace...

The person is gone, you don't need to pretend anymore.

Qi Mo relaxed and stopped sitting cross-legged, instead lying down on the bed.

"Damn the Queen Mother of the West, she kept me up all night. She sent people over every one or two hours."

"You just wait, a thousand years from now, I will definitely dissect you."

Stop cursing, it's already dawn. Go and give these ancient people a little shock.

[Didn't you want to earn shock points?]

Qi Mo raised an eyebrow.

This is indeed a serious matter.

Judging from the group of people I met yesterday, including the Queen Mother of the West, these ancient people were both ignorant and deeply devoted to deities.

He believed that with his appearance, with the sun above his head and his whole body shrouded in divine light, he could instantly conquer these ancient people.

He immediately got out of bed and walked outside.

…………

[Keep walking forward, and you'll exit the Palace of the Queen Mother of the West]

[Go for it! Once you leave the Queen Mother of the West's palace, you'll reach the soldiers' training area.]

There are lots of people there; you're sure to make a fortune.

Qi Mo nodded.

The Queen Mother of the West's palace is quite large; he's been walking for half an hour and still hasn't left.

It's unknown how much manpower and resources the Queen Mother of the West spent building this palace.

However, the location is rather poor; they chose to build it underground, like a place for the dead to live.

He walked and complained as he went, and soon left the Queen Mother of the West's palace.

In the distance, the sounds of soldiers training could be heard.

Qi Mo quickened his pace and headed towards the simple training base.

A dozen or so tall and robust female soldiers were resting after finishing their training.

Suddenly, they saw Qi Mo appear under the sun overhead, and were so shocked that they couldn't speak.

[Soldier's Shock Level +100]

[Soldier's Shock Level +100]

[Soldier's Shock Level +100]

…………

Qi Mo couldn't stand it anymore; the notification sound was a bit too noisy.

He thought to himself:

"System, turn off notification sounds."

[Ding, notification sound has been turned off]

Instantly, the surroundings became quiet, and Qi Mo's expression gradually relaxed.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

A group of people knelt down in front of Qi Mo.

Qi Mo waved his hand: "Get up, all of you. I'm just taking a stroll. You don't need to follow me."

He wandered around the training base.

[Soldier's Shock Level +100]

[Soldier's Shock Level +100]

[Soldier's Shock Level +100]

…………

Qi Mo discovered something interesting: it seemed that most of the soldiers in the Queen Mother of the West's Kingdom were women.

The remaining small group of male soldiers, although quite capable, seemed to have a very low status and were ordered around by the female soldiers.

As he walked, Qi Mo saw two female soldiers dueling and immediately went over to watch with great interest.

[Soldier's Shock Level +100]

[Soldier's Shock Level +100]

"You don't need to pay attention to me, continue the duel."

"This god also wishes to see the strength of you mortals."

Qi Mo said pretentiously.

The two female soldiers bowed respectfully to Qi Mo and then continued their duel.

They raised what they called "spears," which weren't really spears, but just somewhat resembled them.

Similar to a sharpened long stick, a sharp triangular "arrow" made of bronze is attached to the tip of the stick.

If this were to stab someone, it would cause immense harm.

The two female soldiers fought each other with "spears," and their battle was extremely fierce and barbaric.

Even from a distance, Qi Mo could see the muscles on their arms.

His muscles were even bigger and stronger than those of the fitness gurus I had seen in my previous life.
