[Attachment] Energy Block (Small)
[Obtained Energy Block (Small)]
After claiming the item, it is automatically placed in the co-pilot's seat.
Wei Huan's gaze lingered on the email information for several seconds before he reluctantly pulled it away.
His mind was a bit muddled.
It was as if he was still on that chaotic battlefield.
In the distance was a figure like a Titan, towering over heaven and earth, his raised arm piercing the sky, a thunderous roar: "Charge!!! We, the Human Race, fear no bloodshed!!!"
He blinked hard, chasing away the smoke-filled scene from his mind.
Wei Huan turned and picked up the energy block from the co-pilot's seat.
It felt heavy, a 3x3 centimeter square, like a glass block, but with a slowly changing blue lightning-like energy inside.
The familiar feel, without a closer look, Wei Huan skillfully "fed" the energy block into the armrest box.
The armrest box seemed alive, "eating" the energy block, and then smacking its lips, still not quite satisfied.
The odometer jumped up one, but it was still within the red line.
Tsk! The range anxiety was completely unrelieved.
Wei Huan, with his foot on the accelerator, had already locked his gaze onto the right side of the road.
As the car moved forward, time passed bit by bit, and veins popped out on the back of his hand gripping the steering wheel.
Finally, a scene that had repeatedly appeared in his dreams truly appeared before his eyes.
By the roadside was a gray stone the size of a human head, with a smaller stone stacked on top of it, and an even smaller flat stone stacked on top of the Little Dot stone.
Beside the stones, a small yellow daisy bloomed.
With a gust of wind, the daisy swayed precariously.
Wei Huan's gaze was drawn by the bright colors of the small daisy, and then he saw the oddly shaped stones.
It was said that in some large mountains and sparsely populated plateaus, stacking stones had a special meaning.
But in Challengers, monsters don't stack stones.
It seemed that these stones were not naturally formed either.
Contradictory and puzzling, it exuded an eerie strangeness.
Wei Huan's gaze moved from the stones and he glanced into the forest.
Just beneath the slightly dark tree trunks, he saw the white treasure chest.
From then on, it haunted his dreams.
"Screech—!!"
The dilapidated van made a piercing sound when braking.
Wei Huan turned his head and looked at "his treasure chest" through the co-pilot's window.
It was about 15 meters from the roadside, beneath the second row of trees.
At this distance, his round trip would probably only take six or seven seconds.
To avoid startling the monsters still in their novice slumber in the forest, he had to be quick and decisive, and not stay here too long.
No longer giving himself any chance to hesitate, Wei Huan moved to the co-pilot's seat, locked the car, opened the door, and stepped out of the car.
The atmosphere was toxic.
The environment looked the same as a forest on Blue Star, but this was indeed an alien dimension.
Bacteria in the air could kill unevolved Blue Star Challengers.
This was also why schools, society, and even the instructors in the game strictly required Challengers not to get out of the car before awakening their extraordinary abilities.
Wei Huan knew he was taking a risk, but he hadn't expected it to be so serious.
Just three steps after getting out of the car, his skin began to itch, and the itching grew more intense.
Soon, blisters appeared on the back of his hands, and the itching turned into pain, as if he were being burned by fire.
His body was in even more pain.
"Thump, thump, thump!"
"Huff! Huff! ⒎⒎ 'Come # See the Latest Chapters # Full Chapters'"
Gravity was also different from Blue Star.
The unevolved human body was too weak.
Wei Huan had never thought that 15 meters could be so long.
He left the road, stepping over the stacked stones, and the wind made the small daisy sway violently.
Under his feet were scattered rocks, and the pain spread to his eyes, blurring his vision.
But he knew that at this moment, he absolutely could not fall.
Once he fell, he would never be able to get up again.
Biting the tip of his tongue, in his blurred vision, there was only the white box.
He ran past the first row of trees, and the world suddenly turned cold, but it wasn't the coldness of the deep sea, but an eerie, chilling cold.
But this did not alleviate the burning pain on his body.
It hurt so much, his flesh seemed to be melting, something was falling off.
One step, one piece dropped.
Oh, it was his flesh.
"Huff! Huff!"
Finally, the box was right in front of him.
He no longer cared if there were monsters guarding the treasure chest, or if there were monsters sleeping in the forest.
With a "thump," he knelt before the white treasure chest and touched the box.
The moment his hands touched it, the box automatically opened, emitting a dazzling light.
In the Challengers' backpack, a pile of colorful items clattered out.
Wei Huan couldn't even look to see what they were.
With a thought, the extraordinary potion in the Challengers' backpack appeared in his hand.
The bottle had a stopper, which should normally be Twisted open with both hands, but Wei Huancould no longer feel his other hand; that hand might have already dissolved.
He opened his mouth and bit down on the bottle cap.
"Ptooey!"
"Gulp! Gulp!"
He drank the life-saving potion.
Evolution potion.
He only needed to complete the most basic evolution to be able to basically survive in this dimension.
Quick!
Quick!
Quick!
Quick, take effect!
Hurry up!!
Finally, the potion reached his stomach, and a cool sensation began to spread outwards from there.
His once withered nerves were stimulated, and neural synapses spread wildly outwards; Wei Huan could almost feel the sensation of a new body growing from his stomach.
Finally, the growing nerves reached his brain, and shot upwards with a fierce surge!
Wei Huan's body trembled.
Then, in the sudden relief from pain, he relaxed.
He blinked, his eyes returning to normal.
His focus re-converged, and what he saw was the extreme darkness deep within the forest.
Innumerable presences seemed to be in the darkness, also watching him.
Whispers crept into his ears, and in a daze, it seemed as if green eyes were approaching.
Wei Huan, who had fought monsters countless times in Challengers and on the battlefield, knew this feeling too well.
This was pollution from dark energy.
After the threat of the alien dimension's deadly air was gone, the second major "killer" human Challengers had to deal with was [Mental Pollution].
Pollution would cause hallucinations, Twistedthe existing reality before one's eyes, and dig out the most terrifying images from within, constantly invading until one's mind collapsed.
Wei Huan no longer hesitated, immediately scrambled up and stumbled back into the car.
He was not yet qualified to deal with dark energy.
The direction of evolution was to strengthen oneself while adapting to the other's world.
This was a war presided over by gods.
Two unrelated dimensions were forcibly overlapped, and it would only end when one side was completely annihilated.
So, being able to survive in the other's world was fundamental.
But he would go back eventually, back to the battlefield.
A completely new him.
He looked back at the place where the white treasure chest had disappeared.
It would be better, right?
"Thud!"
Wei Huan fell heavily to the ground.
He scrambled up and saw the stacked stones that he had kicked over and that had also tripped him.
The next second, his pupils suddenly contracted.
He saw that at his feet, where the stacked stones had just been, the ground suddenly bulged upwards, pulsing, as if something was about to break out of the earth.
There was indeed something strange!!
Wei Huan didn't wait for the thing to come out, he propped himself up and jumped, scrambling into the wide-open co-pilot's door behind him.
Clean and swift, like lightning, he plunged inside.
Pulled in his legs.
Closed the door!
Safe!
Wei Huan sat in the co-pilot's seat, panting heavily.
The pain continued, his heart pounded incessantly.
His vision swayed.
After two seconds, Wei Huan realized that it was the car swaying, not himself.
Then he turned his head and looked out of the car, seeing a terrifying sight.
A section resembling the leg of some kind of arthropod, a huge white bone, was piercing through the ground, emerging from the position of the stacked stones.
"…"
Monster!?
That big?
Was this a monster guarding the treasure chest? Or a wandering monster?
Whatever it was, something this large, even if it couldn't destroy the vehicle within the novice protection period, the impact caused by hitting the vehicle was still a fatal attack to the Challengers inside.
The missing Challenger in the chat room must have died from a wandering monster hitting their car.
Wei Huan had no intention of testing how well this car's suspension worked.
He scrambled to the driver's seat, using both hands and feet.
He had kept the engine running earlier, just in case of an accident.
Now it was proving useful, as he was indeed facing a deadly crisis even inside the car.
So now, he just needed to release the handbrake and put it into a forward gear to leave this dangerous area.
[Handbrake released] Complete!
[Shift gear]!
[Shift gear]!!
Can't get it into gear!?
In that short time, more of the monster's body (3 'Come _ See the Latest Chapters _ Full Chapters' ()) had emerged, the vehicle was almost tilted, sliding off the road.
Wei Huan broke out in a cold sweat. How could he not get it into gear? He was an old driver!! He had been through even more intense situations, it was impossible for him to have problems with such basic driving!!
His body was tilted to the extreme, the car had already slid to the edge of the road.
Just then, two constantly flashing option boxes on the projected display on the windshield caught Wei Huan's attention.
[Family member joining, Mu Chong requests to get in the car, do you wish to accept?]
[Yes]
[No]
His hand was faster than his brain.
He raised his hand and swiped, tapping [Yes].
The next moment, Wei Huan found that the forward gear he couldn't engage earlier could now be smoothly put into place.
[Shift gear]!
[Accelerator]!
[Clutch]!
[Shift up]!
Wei Huan performed a series of fluid and practiced maneuvers, one hand shifting gears, the other pressed on the steering wheel, turning it vigorously with a flourish.
"Boom—"
Wei Huan drove the broken van like a sports car.
Finally, just before it was about to fall off the road, it slid out a beautiful arc from the ground that had arched upwards like a grave mound, returning to the road.
And then sped away.
At the same time, a person suddenly appeared in his co-pilot's seat.
The man was heavily pressed against the seat by the strong pushback, and his first words were barely a whisper: "Cough cough! I didn't realize you drove so wildly, cough cough cough!"
