I clicked "yes" but was denied entry to Infinite.

"are you serious?"

Li Wei said seriously, "Do you think I'm joking? Even I wouldn't play around like this in a place like this, okay?"

Qin Qingyu's lips twitched. "It's a strange feeling that you and I probably don't live in the same reality."

"What do you mean?"

"I just feel that the ordinary people you have in mind seem to be abnormally strong..." Qin Qingyu complained, "A spider the size of a house? The Hulk? Even if it's a monster ten times weaker than that, it's still not something a normal person can beat, okay?"

"Is that right?"

Li Wei seemed to believe it but not quite.

"If you encounter something like this, you better run away, you bastard!"

Having lost his memory, and seemingly even his common sense, Li Wei didn't want to argue with Qin Qingyu at the moment. However, subconsciously, he truly believed that those things were... utterly weak!

"Let's split up and search the surrounding area again," Li Wei said, putting aside the previous topic.

"I'm starting to seriously doubt you. Are you really planning to eat that junk for dinner tonight?" Qin Qingyu looked at Li Wei with a questioning gaze.

Although she said that, she didn't say anything more.

As before, their goal wasn't to find food, but to collect these broken little parts. That's why Qin Qingyu was helping Li Wei so much. If it were anyone else in this situation, they would be lucky if they didn't curse him as an idiot and leave Li Wei to fend for himself.

That's probably what... a naive and innocent girl looks like.

"By the way, take the pistol with you." Qin Qingyu suggested, "I have a feeling that this city might not be very safe. If you encounter anything unclean, remember to shoot if you can, and run away as soon as you can't fight back."

Seeing that Li Wei didn't seem to care much, Qin Qingyu kept giving him instructions until he seemed to really listen.

"how about you?"

"Me? Don't worry, I graduated from military academy and my shooting skills are top-notch."

"Really? Can you help me try it out..." Li Wei replied subconsciously, without even knowing what he meant.

"Huh? What did you say?"

"No, actually I don't know what that means either. Maybe it's just some latent memory playing tricks on me."

"This is a good thing; it means your memory is returning."

After they finished speaking, the two parted ways.

However, not long after, Li Wei heard Qin Qingyu scream, followed by the sound of gunshots.

PS:

PPA: ...I'm never raising a flag again. I have to go back to school for exams next week, which is really annoying... Now I'm staying home to study, but my family is watching me study every day...

I'll update properly after the exams... ▽? Anyway, you guys will probably get used to this snail's pace...

Sure enough, once a person becomes lazy and complacent, the salt in their body can never be removed...

The airfare of over five thousand yuan hurts! I wish you good luck on your exam...

Chapter 236 My Fist Shot a Gun

Hearing the unusual sound meant that Qin Qingyu was in danger, so Li Wei didn't hesitate and quickly ran in the direction from which the sound came.

A few minutes later, Li Wei arrived at the dilapidated shop where Qin Qingyu was. Not far from the entrance, a grayish-white humanoid figure lay on the ground, blood constantly gushing from its right eye socket.

Standing to the side, Qin Qingyu, her face pale and eyes vacant, gripped a pistol in both hands. She only came to her senses after Li Wei arrived.

"Are you OK?"

"It's alright, I was just a little startled just now."

"This is?"

"I had only been in the store for a short time when this monster suddenly appeared and attacked me with its hands raised," Qin Qingyu said, glancing at the corpse with lingering fear. "Its footsteps were very light and fast. When I heard a sound and turned around, it was less than a meter away from me."

"If I hadn't reacted quickly and fired several shots at its head, I probably would have been killed."

The monster's fingernails were very long, a full ten centimeters, and looked extremely sharp. They couldn't even be called fingernails; "claws" would be a more accurate description. Li Wei's intuition told him that one swipe of its claws could probably cut a gash in the wall.

If this claw were placed on a human body, it would definitely cut the person in two. So if Qin Qingyu had been even slightly slower, he would have only seen two separate pieces of flesh.

For some reason, Li Wei felt a sudden urge, walked closer to the grayish-white humanoid monster's corpse, put away the gun he was holding, and touched it.

This action startled Qin Qingyu. "Li Wei, don't! Be careful, there might be a virus on it!"

But before she could finish speaking, Li Wei touched the corpse. She looked at Li Wei with trepidation, fearing that he might be infected by zombies like in Resident Evil and turn into a monster as well.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

As for why Li Wei was so confident in making such a guarantee, it was because when he touched the monster's body just now, the following information appeared in his mind:

Species: Albino humanoid

Constitution: 13

Power: 21

Agility: 17

Stamina: 7

……

This is a humanoid monster, a product of genetic mutation resulting from generations of humans infected with the A-37 virus. It is intellectually deficient, extremely aggressive towards flesh and blood, and its claws are sharp enough to cut through iron. Due to the mutation, the A-37 virus has undergone a fundamental change and is no longer infectious, while the original infected individuals have mutated into a new species other than humans...

Weakness: Eyes.

Special skill: Sprint acceleration.

A-37 virus: an infectious virus studied artificially. Before mutation, infected individuals would exhibit albinism accompanied by varying degrees of physical enhancement.

Originally, there was no introduction to the A-37 virus, because Li Wei only touched the albino humanoid. However, for some reason, after he developed a desire to learn about the A-37 virus, a brief introduction appeared in his mind. Although he wanted to know more information, there was no further explanation.

This made him somewhat unwilling. His intuition told him that he could actually know more, and that his current level of ability was far from the limit.

Li Wei had a feeling that if he could find a way to use this ability, there would be nothing in the world that he would not know.

To put it another way, in a more chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur) way—

Heavens, nothing can blind him anymore; earth, nothing can bury his heart.

Shaking his head, Li Wei banished the sudden bout of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) from his mind. He felt a little depressed. Could it be that before he lost his memory, he was actually a chuunibyou patient?

No, that's impossible. After all, he's so handsome, he would never get that kind of disease.

"Are you really alright?" Qin Qingyu asked Li Wei with concern.

"Won't it suddenly turn into a monster?"

"will not."

"Won't he suddenly die?"

"will not."

"Won't……"

Before Qin Qingyu could finish speaking, Li Wei interrupted her, "Alright, alright, if I have any problems later, just give me a bullet as a reward."

"You make it sound so easy..." Qin Qingyu muttered in a voice Li Wei couldn't hear, then remembered something and said nervously, "By the way, Li Wei, you absolutely must not leave my side from now on, or it will be very dangerous!"

"Huh? Why?" Li Wei asked, puzzled.

"You still ask why? I fired three shots at this monster, hitting it in the eye socket before killing it. That's because I trained beforehand. What about you?" Qin Qingyu said irritably.

"You're just an ordinary person, you probably haven't even fired a gun before, have you?"

"It seems right."

Seeing Li Wei's nonchalant attitude, Qin Qingyu rolled her eyes, then said solemnly, "These monsters must have very high defense. Even their eye sockets require three shots, let alone other areas. Ordinary people with guns simply can't beat these monsters, so..."

Before Qin Qingyu could finish speaking, a gray-white figure swiftly ran to Li Wei's side, moving even faster than the monster Qin Qingyu had just encountered.

A cold glint, like a crescent moon, fell straight at Li Wei's head. At this moment, Li Wei had already put away his pistol, while Qin Qingyu had exhausted too much mental energy in the short time while dealing with the albino humanoid and was unable to react in time.

The claws were already at Li Wei's neck.

Li Wei's pupils contracted, and various mysterious hormones were instantly secreted in his body, causing his physical abilities to rise rapidly. Then, as if by a sudden inspiration, or perhaps a stroke of genius, he...

Li Wei, with his right hand clenched into a fist, punched the albino humanoid's head!

boom--

Like a cannon exploding, or a thunderous roar, the albino humanoid head exploded like fireworks, scattering bone and blood everywhere.

Because of the immense force of Li Wei's punch, even after smashing the albino humanoid dog's head, his lower body was still thrown a short distance.

Qin Qingyu was shocked.

Li Wei grunted and scratched his head a little embarrassedly:

"It seems... my fists are more effective than a gun?"

Qin Qingyu: "..."

"Why don't you try using your fist?"

...At this moment, Qin Qingyu had a "fuck you" stuck in her throat.

On the other hand, on the rooftop of the desolate city.

A black-haired youth wearing a black bodysuit with a white jacket over it, the back of which was printed with a six-pointed star, stood coldly to the side, looking down at the scenery below.

This is what Qin Qingyu meant by a "veteran".

Behind him were seven ordinary middle-aged men of varying ages, an average-looking long-haired office lady, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, a slightly overweight middle-aged woman, a thin otaku dressed in anime clothes, a six or seven-year-old boy, and an old man in his seventies.

Although Liu Bolong had his back to the group, he could imagine their expressions and inner thoughts, because along the way he had seen how awful and low-class this group of people were.

This quality doesn't refer to manners, but rather... a person's aptitude and potential to become strong.

"No wonder I, a veteran, was chosen to lead the team. Without me, they would have been completely wiped out."

As for the two people who didn't follow him, let's not even talk about the woman. She was too kind. In a world of reincarnation where only the fittest survive, kindness will only drag you down.

As for the man who had been unconscious for a long time, he was even worse; his aptitude was the worst he had ever seen in all the times he had led teams.

The higher one's aptitude, the faster one wakes up. What's so special about being in a coma for so long? It's not even as good as a seventy-year-old or a six or seven-year-old boy.

Of course, this doesn't mean that their potential is low, but in terms of overall ability, they are generally not as good as people in their 20s.

PS:

P.S.: So sleepy... Going to sleep after updating, goodnight...

We're back! We told Editor Nan that we're going to rise up!

There are no exams for a while, and after a few days of rest, I should be able to resume regular updates.

If we don't update soon, Sister Wu will probably kill us...

Chapter 237 Alchemy

This mission is neither particularly difficult nor easy. The simple part is that... this instance is below his skill level, and he can handle it with ease.

The difficulty lies in the fact that he was appointed to lead the team, and the team's survival rate is crucial to his mission evaluation. The more casualties there are, the greater the impact on him; if no one is left, then the mission has failed.

Although failing this team-leading mission wouldn't punish him with being wiped out, it would severely deduct his survival points. The Main God Space is a place where you either advance or fall behind, and he wanted to complete this mission successfully if possible.

As Liu Bolong gazed at the scenery, he thought to himself.

Protecting is more difficult than killing, and thankfully, he has the ability to do both.

"Captain Liu."

The middle-aged man respectfully asked, "What should we do next?"

After saying this, the middle-aged man hesitated for a moment before continuing, "We've been walking for so long, and we haven't eaten anything or drunk a drop of water."

"Oh, you mean... you're hungry, thirsty, want to eat, and want to drink, right?" Liu Bolong sneered.

He had no interest in pretending with this bunch of good-for-nothings. Generally speaking, those who frequent the Main God Space shouldn't mess with others. There's a saying that goes something like that—
