Chapter 121: Chapter 91 Star Tower: Don’t Come Over Here! ´д` ; (1/? 4k words, please subscribe)_2Seeing he was puzzled, Gu Pan chuckled and said, "Let me enlighten you, the reason is—night, and day, are not the same. Never make the mistake of assuming that the wasteland, which appears somewhat peaceful during the day, is the same at night." Xu Shu glanced at her, "What, monsters come crawling out of the ground at night?" "Holy shit, you guessed that?" Gu Pan was shocked. Could he really be a genius? She hadn’t gone to the trouble of asking on the upgrade network just to come back and make a fool of me, had she? However, Xu Shu was even more surprised. Damn it, I was just talking rubbish. "Monsters crawl out at night?" Xu Shu asked. "Yes, the closer to the wasteland, the more that emerge. Take this large plaza just outside of the safe zone... Xu Shu, look at the ground. Do you notice all the weird footprints?" "..." Xu Shu’s expression darkened. There really were footprints everywhere, both large and small, bizarre and oddly shaped. He hadn’t given it any thought before. "Scared, aren’t you? At night, monsters that you can’t find digging three feet into the ground during the day will all come out! And can you imagine? At midnight, the walls will be crawling with all sorts of monsters, like a monstrous mountain, a monstrous sea..." Gu Pan vividly described. "I can," Xu Shu said coldly. "..." Gu Pan was at a loss for words. Xu Shu scoffed, what’s so great about that? It’s just a zombie world war, I’ve seen plenty. But to have a zombie world war every night, that was indeed absurd. Life on the wasteland in this post-apocalyptic world, day and night, was like two extremes. So, it was the sunlight that kept those monsters at bay? No wonder everyone was willing to follow the Dawn Church and praise the sun. That’s worth a bit of praise, no harm in not worrying about it being too conceited. "I have an idea, since monsters show up at our doorstep at night, can’t we humans just endlessly farm Erosion Crystals on the city walls?" Xu Shu suddenly asked. Gu Pan slapped the table and said, "Good idea! The Supervision Bureau tried that before, but unfortunately, those monsters that only emerge at night melt like snow after they die, seeping back into the ground, leaving nothing behind! Fighting them is like throwing good money after bad, so they eventually stopped bothering. Anyway, they can’t get in, so let them gather under the wall if they like." "Really? That’s so rascally." "Right, as you can see, being too close to the city wall is too dangerous; being too far away, you don’t often see monsters, but then it’s hard to get supplies. It’s a dilemma with no easy solution, so the life of the Wasteland Wanderers is truly tough!" "As for this temporary refugee camp, it only gathers around noon and ends before sunset. Mainly, the wanderers come to trade and exchange daily necessities with the city." "Ugh. I see." Xu Shu felt a sense of regret that the Erosion Crystals couldn’t be farmed; it was truly lamentable. Another strange piece of knowledge added. After eating and feeling full, Gu Pan felt much more comfortable, and her heart felt satisfied as well. "I’m good now, shall we head into the city?" she asked. seaʀᴄh thё nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Heh, no, we’re going to stay with these wanderers in their shelter for the night." "What? We’re not going home?" Xu Shu’s expression was indifferent. To hell with going in, I might not make it out alive! "Maybe, I’ll find a place to go online, ask the good people of the internet if they know what’s going on. "As for Gu Pan... Heh, can’t let her know I’d be struck dead by the Star Tower!" "But before that, there’s something I must do... Gu Pan, wait here, don’t move." "What are you going to do?" "Mind your own business." "Oh, got it." Gu Pan felt aggrieved but dared not to inquire further. Xu Shu stood up and walked straight towards the city gate, passing the garrison’s "security check" at the entrance. However, he didn’t enter the city but stood inside the wall, in the middle of the city gate. This place was safe. One step further, and it was a minefield. Xu Shu watched Little Orang Lady selling her goods there and sighed as he looked towards the north of the city. There was the home where he had lived for over a decade. Now that it was right in front of his eyes, yet he couldn’t return, he could only come and gaze from afar as a means of consolation. "Ah, I’ll try again tomorrow, no matter what, I have to go back." Xu Shu turned, ready to leave. But just then, he stopped in his tracks, pausing right in the city gate tunnel. His gaze froze on the interface of the Tai Chu Scroll. "Great Master, the Tai Chu Scroll has detected the aura of the Star Tower!" [Currently detecting the status... Detection complete!] "Great Master, you are now standing under the walls of the Safe Zone, and you are about to enter the range of the Safe Zone at the foot of the Star Tower. When you embark on a journey or legend within the Safe Zone, you will severely damage the foundations of the Star Tower, so please pay close attention to the following two points!" [Travel Mode] "When you engage in Travel Mode, you will use yourself as a coordinate to foresee the future, simulate the future, and the varied future will manifest because of you, placing you in an extremely special state." "If you enter the Safe Zone during your journey, your source origin will touch the Star Tower, causing the Star Tower to passively enter a state of full alert! "It will be unable to detect your position in the Safe Zone, until you actively interact with any human within the Safe Zone! "After interaction, your position will be revealed, and your behavior will have a high probability of damaging the foundations of the Star Tower. The Star Tower will then, according to the ’Humanity Protection Laws’ Article Three, remove your human protection and launch an ordinary attack (Epic Level) against you! "’Humanity Protection Laws’ Article Three: Anyone who damages the Star Tower is not regarded as human." —— Xu Shu took a sharp intake of breath, his face immediately becoming extraordinarily animated. "I was wondering why Lie Zhenzi acknowledged my profession as a human Warrior and then reneged! "Turns out I’ve been tearing down the tower myself! "I can’t really blame it, the moment I went in, my human status was revoked." "Damn it, this reminder only triggers when I’m right at the foot of the Safe Zone, it’s ridiculous." "Is the Star Tower’s ordinary attack that bolt of lightning? Epic Level?" "Man, if only I had known earlier, I would have done sit-ups inside, at least I could have endured another hit." Having completely understood the cause of his death, Xu Shu took a long, relieving breath. Having lived in the Safe Zone for so many years, he naturally felt no fear after learning the rules of the Star Tower’s attacks. He took a deep breath and stepped into the city. No problem. Then he stepped out. No problem. Xu Shu then stepped in again, and out again, entering and exiting over and over, repeatedly crossing back and forth. Passersby nearby looked at him with strange glances. "Has this young man had a relapse of a serious illness?" But Xu Shu didn’t care; he was feeling very good about himself. Damn it, I can finally return to the city! Even though it was actually a big blunder on his part, having been killed three times, he felt it was only right to hop back and forth over the "Star Tower’s defense line" to relieve his anger. He then looked at another description. Regarding [Legendary Mode], the Tai Chu Scroll also provided new reminders:—— "Great Master, you are now repeatedly crossing back and forth within the Safe Zone, but this is inconsequential. "You may engage in [Continuation of Legend] within the Safe Zone. In this mode, you will not impact the Star Tower in any way, and you can proceed without worry." "Please note! "When you engage in [Creation of Legend] within the Safe Zone, you will obtain new [Fates], determine the universe, and twist causality! "Obtaining Fates is an act of seizing the heavens’ creation; if you carry out this operation within the Safe Zone, you will severely damage the Star Tower’s foundation and cause permanent, irreversible harm to the Star Tower! "Please consider it carefully! "If you decide to proceed with [Creation of Legend] within the Safe Zone, the Tai Chu Scroll advises you to prepare for the possibility of the Star Tower’s collapse upon your return; "When you extract Fates 1/2/3 times, the probability of damage to the Star Tower will be 20%/50%/100% respectively!" "Master, please weigh your actions carefully before proceeding, and if the local Star Tower still exists after the legend ends, it will remove its limits and attack you with all its might (Taboo Level). "Master, the Tai Chu Scroll would like to see your strength." ...... Xu Shu touched the Tai Chu Scroll and slowly closed it. A legend with three pulls of Fates, 100% guarantees the explosion of the Star Tower? Ah, this... Looking back at the Star Tower, his mindset became one of pity. Is the Tai Chu Scroll actually meant for stealing the tower? "The point is not this! Could it be that this [Continuation of Legend] is..."
