I'm in Star Iron, and I draw power from the Inner World every week.

“…”

Su Yang didn't complain.

But his thoughts are a bit jumbled right now.

Not long ago, he had just enjoyed Huang Quan's lap pillow, and while still on the lap pillow, he tried to drink slime drinks, while Huang Quan was holding his weapon and attacking him.

And now that he's enjoying the pharmacist's lap pillow, then...

Before his terrifying idea could develop further, his rationality swiftly killed the newly resurrected romance with a single punch.

Su Yang revealed a gentle, philosopher-like smile.

.....

He stayed with the pharmacist for a very long time, until Su Yang forgot the time and unknowingly exited the dream.

More than the restoration of his vision, Su Yang felt his body moving.

He slowly opened his eyes and found that his two legs were swinging back and forth.

Why was he able to see his legs the moment he woke up?

The answer is that Huang Quan is holding his legs, moving in the opposite direction, and relentlessly attacking him with road-based weapons at a mechanized speed.

The damage a weapon at its peak can cause to a road is unpredictable, but Huang Quan seemed completely oblivious to the damage, ignoring his slightly protruding belly, and continued to move as if nothing was wrong.

"Mei-nee...why don't you want to take a rest?"

This was the first time Su Yang had been in this state, and he felt quite uneasy.

"Oh, you're just waking up? Looks like you had a good dream."

Huang Quan slightly curled the corners of his mouth, but showed no sign of resting.

"It was indeed a good dream. I enjoyed the pharmacist's lap pillow for half a day."

"?"

Huang Quan's movements came to an abrupt halt.

In that instant, Su Yang felt as if his weapon was being clamped in a vise, as if it would be torn off at any moment.

Coincidentally.

The accumulated damage from Huang Quan was also settled at this moment.

“…”

Huang Quan was still a little confused.

Even after her belly started to bulge from watching anime, she was still a little dazed.

Huang Quan silently left the weapon's position and sat down next to Su Yang.

"It would be better not to say such things to others in the future."

"Hmm? I guess it was a dream, but it didn't feel particularly special."

Su Yang's gaze shifted downwards.

The road is in a very bad state and shows no signs of being repaired for a long time.

Even in this state, Huang Quan, with his extremely strong self-control, instantly closed the path, ensuring that the massive amount of experience would not be easily lost.

"The consequences of having an envoy who can communicate with the Star God at any time being unpredictable if the outside world finds out."

"It was just a dream, right? Mei-nee, you didn't sense the aura of [Abundance] just now, did you?"

"This actually makes things more complicated. In short, we should be more careful about similar things in the future."

"Ok."

"You've definitely been much more well-behaved lately."

"uh-huh?"

Su Yang blinked blankly.

"Ah."

The Yellow Springs remain silent.

She is currently unequipped, and the pain in her lower abdomen remains difficult to alleviate.

If this were the Su Yang of the past, he would probably have quickly developed the urge to fight again, or he would have wanted her to help him deal with things.

However, Su Yang's weapon status is now gradually declining.

This is rare.

"Mei-nee, I love you."

Unfortunately, I don't love you.

"Mei-nee was working so hard just now? And she didn't even want to waste the time afterwards."

Su Yang reached out and touched Huang Quan's lower abdomen.

"I was just hungry."

“Mei-nee, I sometimes wish I could hear you confess your feelings frankly.”

"Then go listen to it in your dreams."

Huang Quan impatiently lay down to the side, ignoring Su Yang's hand.

She closed her eyes, as if she were resting.

"Mei-nee hasn't been pulling me into my dreams much lately."

“…”

Huang Quan ignored Su Yang.

"Mei-nee, I love you."

Su Yang pecked Huang Quan on the cheek.

“…”

Seeing that Huang Quan was no longer paying attention to him, Su Yang smiled gently, lightly covered Huang Quan with the blanket, and then pecked her cheek.

Su Yang is still quite energetic.

After settling Huang Quan in, Su Yang prepared to go and interact with Jing Liu.

however.

[Weekly Quest: Smell Qingque's underwear for ten seconds... Time expired.]

[The punishment mission is about to begin.]

The sudden punishment startled Su Yang.

In that moment of stunned silence, he fell into a pitch-black void.

After traveling for a few seconds, he finally fell out of the void.

"...?"

Su Yang calmly surveyed his surroundings.

It's a city filled with deathly silence.

But most of the buildings were intact, only lacking the warmth of human life, unlike the ruins he had visited before that had been destroyed and ravaged.

Who will we encounter this time? But will there really be any 'rare' events?

Whether it's Huang Quan, Jing Liu, or Ruan Mei, the system will emphasize that these are rare missions that are hard to come by.

In theory, there may be less rare tasks.

Since he felt no fear of the unfamiliar environment, Su Yang simply continued to lay out his thoughts.

"The situation with Nguyen Mai and the Great Black Tower is still normal; they are simply conducting research."

"It seems that Xingxiao and Huanlong's situation has not yet been discovered by [Destruction], but Xingxiao's recent decrease in 'battle achievements' is also a big problem."

Even if it gets exposed, it doesn't matter, but we'll keep it a secret for as long as possible.

"However, if we let Xingxiao pretend to be [Destruction], and then use [Memory] to disguise it..."

After finishing this part of his thinking, Su Yang checked his panel one last time.

[Strength: 15]

[Agility: 10]

[Intelligence: 20]

Let's continue to increase intelligence.

One option starts from 0, making it easy to remember the deadline for the next weekly task; the other option offers a very cost-effective number of special ability attempts.

Leaving his thoughts behind, Su Yang leaped up and hung suspended in mid-air, walking on air.

Looking around, this desolate city is quite large, stretching as far as the eye can see.

just in case.

Su Yang removed all his equipment.

Su Yang, completely unequipped, stood confidently in mid-air.

"This doesn't feel good."

The rational Su Yang doesn't really like looting equipment.

"But if an accident occurs during the mission and the equipment is damaged, it won't be good."

"Screw you, even if it's broken, you can just go back and it's all over, right?"

Little Ellie floated beside Su Yang and gave him the middle finger.

"you're right."

But Su Yang still felt bad about the equipment, after all, it was Aglaia's gift.

After putting away his equipment, Su Yang's weapon began to grow wildly, coiling around his body like a python, and soon evolved into pure armor.

Whip-wielding armor, a long-lost sight.

After transforming, Su Yang didn't forget to put on the mask given to him by Hajiville, and only then was the transformation complete.

“…”

Ellie was speechless.

However, just as Huang Quan said, Su Yang's current demeanor has become much more restrained.

Even if things return to normal, Su Yang can't possibly forget the routines he's already 'developed,' so the whip-wearing transformation is normal.

"Ellie, want to go shopping together?"

Su Yang's punishment mission is not a solitary one.

"Oh dear, is this considered a special date? I'm getting shy..."

"Ok."

Su Yang kicked Ai Li back into the memory space and began to check the surrounding situation on his own.

“…”

It seems to have a hint of life, but the feeling is very subtle.

Following his instincts, Su Yang activated the 3D motion device, leaping rapidly through the air to quickly move to the problematic area.

"Ok?"

What came into Su Yang's view were indeed some living beings.

Those were demons with humanoid forms.

Most of them have the heads of goats or other animals, which, combined with their fairly robust bodies, makes them somewhat creepy.

strangeness.
