"Are you kidding me? The last main quest was to investigate the Sky Rift, and now we have to stop evil from descending. Isn't this quest spanning too much? System, bad review! The difficulty curve is terrible." Wei Qingzhou complained.

The rewards for the mission are generous, but the difficulty is also considerable.

First, we need to land on the moon and figure out what exactly is going on with the pillars of light tearing through the sky.

"It's June 14th now. We have to get to the moon within a month. I have an idea, but I'm missing one thing."

After pondering for a moment, Wei Qingzhou checked the description of the fixed coupons.

As the name suggests, the Inherent Voucher allows you to select any ability from the exchange pool and upgrade it to an Inherent Ability.

This is great stuff!

However, it is extremely precious and can only be obtained as a reward from system tasks; there is no other way to acquire it.

After reviewing the mission, Wei Qingzhou began planning what to do next.

The first step is to allocate the cycle points.

Due to the causal feedback, Wei Qingzhou in the "past" used 20 reincarnation points to upgrade his [Forging] talent, but did not upgrade his system space. Therefore, after returning, he spent another 20 reincarnation points to upgrade his system space to 1000m³, so that it could accommodate the custom steel coils from Zhenxin Steel Factory.

There are 50 cycle points, and 30 remain.

Wei Qingzhou thought for a moment, then spent 10 Reincarnation Points to unlock another feature of the system—[Illustrated Compendium]!

The "Illustrated Guide" is equivalent to the Appraisal skill, which records all the items or monsters he has encountered in the dungeon.

The higher the level of the [Illustrated Guide], the more detailed the information recorded.

He opened the encyclopedia, and a list of familiar evil items popped up:

[Hands and feet of stray dogs]

[Rank: Intermediate Evil Item]

【Life: 500】

[Description: Ecologically social creatures, evolved from small canids through mutation. Their weaknesses are their head and spine; individuals can grow to the size of a male lion.]

【Human-Faced Rat】

[Rank: Low-level Evil Item]

【Life: 100】

[Description: Derived from a mutation in rodents, it carries facial proliferative contamination; bites can cause secondary facial sores to grow at the wound site.]

[Muscular Teddy]

[Rank: Low-level Evil Spirit]

【Life: 4000】

[Description: Derived from a mutated Teddy dog, possessing extremely high muscle density and explosive power. It is in heat for 20 out of 24 hours a day, and will mate with almost anything.]

Since the current encyclopedia is only at the beginner level, most entries only record the name and rank. For stronger evil spirits and great evil spirits, the descriptions are all question marks.

He interacted with the pop-up window, scrolled down the encyclopedia, and saw the entry for the deified cult leader.

[Deifying the Cult Leader]

[Rank: Top-tier Great Evil Spirit]

【introduce:???】

"Even a deified cult leader can establish a church like a human being, so he's just a great evil, not even at the level of a demon..."

"Just how powerful are the demons above the Great Evil Spirit?"

Wei Qingzhou was slightly startled, then his pupils suddenly contracted.

He saw the cat-faced old woman.

[Cat-faced old lady]

[Rank: Low-level Demon]

【introduce:???】

Evil!

The cat-faced old woman you encounter in the "newbie zone" turns out to be a demon.

No wonder it could dodge even a steel coil flying at supersonic speed during the confrontation in the villa area, and no wonder the lingering scent of it in room 304 could scare away the muscle teddy bear.

Fortunately, the cat-faced old woman's "basic form" is that of Grandma Zhou, so it doesn't cause too much of a loss of sanity. Otherwise, Wei Qingzhou would have been killed by Chu Jian.

Aside from the cat-faced old woman, the mountain of flesh he saw in Bacheng city was also of demonic level, named Tai Sui.

If you flip through the pages further, the encyclopedia will end.

【? ? ? 】

[Rank: Great Evil]

【introduce:???】

……

[Big eyes/Hanging tongue]

[Rank: ???]

【introduce:???】

One has a name that's a question mark, and the other has a name, but its rank is a question mark.

"The Great Demon... When did I 'come into contact with' or see the Great Demon?" Wei Qingzhou's heart skipped a beat, a lingering fear washing over him.

He had encountered a great demon without even realizing it, as if he had unknowingly taken a detour to the gates of hell and then returned.

However, the encyclopedia does not lie.

It can only be said that this great demon is good at hiding, which is why he was overlooked.

Wei Qingzhou racked his brains, searching through his memories, but couldn't think of anyone who might be the Great Demon, so he temporarily put the matter of the Great Demon aside.

He decided to save up the last 20 cycle points.

He originally wanted to upgrade his [Shooting] talent, but his [Shooting] talent was originally blue, and upgrading from blue to purple requires 100 Reincarnation Points, which was simply not enough, so he had to give up.

"The next time we enter the dungeon is on June 16th, so we have more than a day to prepare."

Wei Qingzhou observed the numerous explosives within the internal system space and began planning the next steps.

He originally planned to use hundreds of tons of explosives from the explosives factory to make a time bomb, then place it in the rented house to surround room 304 and blow up the cat-faced old woman.

However, based on his practical experience in annihilating the Deification Cult with steel rolls, he judged that even without explosives, carpet bombing with steel rolls would be enough to kill the old woman with the cat face.

Dozens of 30-ton hot-rolled steel coils—in the event of a surprise attack, probably not many carbon-based organisms could withstand that.

So he had other things to do the next day.

Booked a flight and flew overnight to Montreal.

……

[6 month 16 day]

early morning.

A car rental shop in Enna, Inner Mongolia.

As dawn broke, the boss yawned and pushed the roller shutter door up.

He didn't want to get up so early, after all, renting a car isn't like selling breakfast, there's no need to get up early, but a customer's WeChat balance yesterday made him work harder.

A well-proportioned young man, wearing a black helmet and motorcycle protective clothing, had been waiting at the rental shop entrance for quite some time.

"Why are you up so early to rent a car, handsome?" The shopkeeper glanced at him and couldn't help but yawn.

"I'm in a hurry."

Wei Qingzhou removed his goggles and said.

"Rent a motorcycle? I don't have any motorcycles in my shop..."

"Off-road vehicle."

Wei Qingzhou walked over to a Jeep Wrangler, patted the hood, and said, "This one will do. Can I see the keys?"

"It must be possible; test drives are supported."

The boss opened a drawer, rummaged through it, tossed him the key, and casually asked, "You look so young, do you have a driver's license? You need one to rent a car."

"have."

Wei Qingzhou told a lie without changing his expression.

In fact, he didn't even take the written test (the first part of the test).

After getting into the car and familiarizing himself with it for a moment, when there were three minutes left on the teleportation countdown, he took the car keys, asked the boss if he could use the restroom, and then entered the instance.

Pushing open the restroom door again, the car rental shop had changed completely.

The glass shop window was smashed, the walls were smeared with dark red blood, tables and chairs were overturned, and the store was in a mess.

A human-faced rat is gnawing on a mangled corpse.

Such a familiar start.

"squeak!"

The human-faced rat smelled the scent of fresh flesh and blood.

As soon as he turned around and saw the boy, he was hit on the head by a steel coil compressed to the size of a coin.

The steel coil coins were naturally custom-made from Zhenxin Steel Factory.

This die-cast steel coin is thicker than a regular coin, weighing 20 grams. Although it is relatively light, its power when it hits a target at supersonic speed is about the same as a regular handgun bullet, which is more than enough to kill a low-level evil creature.

After casually killing the human-faced rat, Wei Qingzhou remained calm and walked straight to the counter, pulling out the drawer that the shopkeeper had previously opened.

Hmm, it's locked?

It doesn't matter.

The boy pulled a shiny steel coin from his pocket, flicked it with his thumb, and the coin flew out at supersonic speed, hitting the drawer and breaking the lock.

Then, the drawer was pulled open.

There are more than a dozen car keys inside.

The keys all have the license plate number and vehicle model label on them.

The customer is king, so Wei Qingzhou didn't stand on ceremony with the deceased boss. He took all the keys and then went to the parking lot, stuffing all the cars with keys into his system space.

Although most of them are economical and practical second-hand cars, in the apocalypse, a car that can run is a good car.

Because I took the car keys in advance, the guaranteed Wrangler is still there.

I took the other cars as backups, but in the end I still drove the Wrangler as my only mode of transportation.

The destination required off-roading, so the rugged and durable Wrangler was just right.

After starting the car, I drove off before the evil spirits surrounding me on the street could catch up with me, and then went to a gas station to get some fuel.

With everything ready, he opened the downloaded offline map and located a rocket launch base on the outskirts of Enna City.

[Jiucheng Satellite Launch Center]

This is the only manned spacecraft launch site in China, located about 300 kilometers from Ena City, in the heart of the Gobi Desert.

Fortunately, the launch site is located in an uninhabited area, with no one around for hundreds of kilometers, so there are no evil spirits.

Even the few mutated evil creatures were all killed by Wei Qingzhou with steel coils.

The drive was quite easy.

The desolate Gobi Desert tells a story of vastness and loneliness that no one listens to.

With one hand on the steering wheel and the other elbow resting on the car window, Wei Qingzhou drove freely and unrestrainedly across the vast desert wilderness.

He only needs to choose a direction and step on the accelerator.

The rest was left to the Wranglers, who stirred up clouds of yellow dust on the ground.

Good luck.

The car didn't break down on the way, and after a few hours of driving, we arrived at our destination smoothly.

Thousands of kilometers away, Wei Qingzhou could see the steel structure tower of the launch base in the distance, standing tall under the dim sky, like an abandoned giant green tree.

He stepped on the foot brake, slowing down, and the Wrangler's tires crunched over the gravel.

This is a "military restricted area".

But now... there's no one there.

Wei Qingzhou didn't care about the car; he simply rammed open the base gate and drove straight to the space city.

"Bang"

The flat ground suddenly shook violently, and an enormous baby with an enormous head stood up unsteadily from behind the space city. Its skin was pale and its body was chubby, as if it were wearing a swimming ring.

Great evil spirit!

"My mom says I want to be an astronaut when I grow up..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Two 30-ton hot-rolled steel coils slammed down, smashing the giant baby's head.

"Let the older brother be the astronaut."

Wei Qingzhou stopped the car, took out two steel rolls and held them in his hands, then entered the space city, cutting down anything that stood in his way, while simultaneously searching for his spacesuit.

Spacesuits come in two types: extravehicular and intravehicular. They have different uses and their costs are vastly different.

A Chinese extravehicular activity suit costs around 3000 million yuan, while those in the United States are even more expensive and unavailable even if you have the money.

Even space agencies reuse a single extravehicular activity suit and cherish it greatly.

This is also why he traveled thousands of miles to the space launch base.

Only here can you get a ready-made spacesuit!

After searching inside and out, Wei Qingzhou finally found several spacesuits in the dedicated clean storage area of ​​the final assembly and testing plant, some for use outside the spacecraft and some for use inside.

Take them all.

The extravehicular activity suit was the core of his lunar landing program!

Without this suit, the human body simply cannot survive in space and on the moon.

Having successfully obtained the spacesuit, Wei Qingzhou was not in a hurry to set off.

He rested for one night in the space city.

into the night.

Wei Qingzhou stood on the observation deck, drinking protein powder from his thermos while gazing at the dark sky.

The night in the Gobi Desert should be the most beautiful.

The launch center's location, with its clear skies and distance from urban light pollution, is ideal for viewing the Milky Way.

But now, the night is pitch black, with only a chasm stretching across the sky.

"To an evil god, Earth is nothing more than a delicious candy ball, isn't it?"

As he watched, another gigantic tongue descended slowly from the Heavenly Rift.

Billions of "taste buds" wriggled simultaneously, and countless giant hands extended from the ends of the tentacles, like a "gluttonous rain" falling from the sky, starting to grab and plunder everywhere on the ground, indulging in a gluttonous feast.

It's like a gluttonous beast eating at a buffet!

"Another night of gluttony? That's too frequent."

"If this continues, within a month, it will have devoured the entire planet."

Wei Qingzhou frowned deeply.

His mental attribute is as high as 50 points, so even if he stares directly at the giant tongue hanging down to the sky, he will not lose sanity. However, this does not mean that he can act recklessly.

The enormous, towering tongue will still devour "vision" and absorb spiritual energy!

He visualized a sickle severing the connection, then easily withdrew his gaze and returned to the space city interior.

Wei Qingzhou didn't rest during the long night.

After finishing the protein powder, he started working out again.

I'm used to lifting weights, and I feel a bit uncomfortable if I don't do it for a day.

The next morning.

Milk and bread will do for breakfast.

Water and food are prepared in the real world and stored in the system space, so there is no need to worry about Cthulhu contamination. In addition, with a super large space of 1000m³, there is no need to worry about food and drink at all.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content and getting enough rest, Wei Qingzhou set off again.

Our destination this time is Ancheng, which is 1,700 kilometers away.

He took the highway and even managed to get a campervan. He scavenged, rested, and continued on his way, but it took him five days to arrive.

He witnessed the devastation of the land along the way.

The enormous, hanging tongue is about to devour the world completely, devouring all living things, even reinforced concrete buildings.

To evil beings, reinforced concrete and sugar cubes may be no different.

In addition, the divine quest "Dancing with Death" has also been completed.

When Wei Qingzhou traveled south and passed through the capital, he encountered clusters of evil spirits and even demons.

He didn't dare get too close, but used a steel roller to wipe out five hundred evil creatures and ten large evil spirits in the outer ring city area, and retreated immediately after completing the mission.

In addition to 10 Reincarnation Points, the mission reward includes a new ability—

Life's fleeting moments

[Ability Description: When the host faces death, their thoughts and reactions accelerate a thousandfold, and the surrounding time and space seem to stand still, fast enough to relive their entire life in their mind.]

"It truly lives up to its name as a 'life revolving lantern,' only triggered when one is on the verge of death."

When Wei Qingzhou saw the ability description, he was a little disappointed that it wasn't a resurrection coin, but he was still quite satisfied.

If used well, this ability can allow him to turn the tide!

[Dancing with Death] This guy is definitely someone you can date!
