The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

As the huge monster appeared and disappeared in the black fog of strange energy, the terrifying strange tentacles appeared again on the ground around it.

Shen Ge was still maintaining the defense of the invisible barrier, and as these strange tentacles attacked him, the strange energy began to fall down "swoosh".

Shen Ge has fought against seventh and eighth level monsters many times and is no longer surprised by this situation. However, due to the powerful pressure from the opponent, he once again strengthened the defense of the invisible barrier.

However, what surprised Shen Ge was that neither the strange black fog that occupied the entire field of vision, nor the giant monster that appeared and disappeared in the black fog, had any intention of attacking him at this time. Instead, these strange tentacles were constantly "testing" him.

Why is that?
Judging from Shen Ge’s current rating, a level 5 rating would not pose a threat to this level 7 weirdness, and it is even less likely that he would cause fear to the other party.

If they said "disdained", they would not have let the strange tentacles test him, but would have directly besieged him and turned him into food for those captives.

As the "dark clouds" gathered in the sky, heavy rain poured down in an instant, with lightning and thunder. The tornado and heavy rain mixed together and rolled up the abandoned buildings, as if the world would be destroyed in the next moment.

Shen Ge maintained an invisible barrier to block the storm's attack. His weird power dropped by one-fifth in just a few minutes. This was just a "test" of the seventh-level weird. If he was really attacked, Shen Ge would probably activate his three characteristics and run away.

Shen Ge continued to move forward according to the route map given by Wang Dong, but the closer he got to the strange black fog, the more fiercely the strange tentacles around him attacked him.

However, the more Shen Ge was stopped from moving forward, the more he wanted to know what was ahead. Moreover, the seventh-level weirdness was the key to whether he could establish a connection with "reality".

With the protection of the invisible barrier, Shen Ge continued to move towards the block ahead, trying to avoid areas where the strange tentacles were densely packed.

The old building in the neighborhood a hundred meters away was what Wang Dong called the "weird guy's stronghold". Just as Shen Ge was about to go over, he found some strange red lights faintly visible beside the messy street. It looked like a group of "people" wearing chemical protective suits, scanning with instruments.

Shen Ge opened his strange eyes and looked at those "people". They were wearing clothes similar to black leather jackets and carrying black fire extinguisher-shaped cans on their backs.

The weirdest thing is that there are many wire-like things sticking out from under the jar, connected to red circles floating in the air.

"Wait, where have I seen these people before?" Shen Ge always felt that these people looked "familiar". After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized that when he was trapped in the "future" in Sakura Takuchi City and encountered "misfortune" for the first time, he had also seen "people" wearing the same clothes.

Shen Ge failed to catch them last time. This time, Shen Ge subconsciously deployed the strange domain. When he was about to trap them, he saw an invisible wave in the air again. Then the figures of those people gradually became distorted and finally disappeared in the thick fog.

"Discovered?" Shen Ge frowned slightly. He had to open his strange eyes to penetrate the strange energy black fog and find those people. Unless they also had similar abilities, it was impossible for them to find him.

This was the second time Shen Ge had seen these strange people in the area where level 7 and 8 weirdos appeared, which made him feel more and more that the appearance of high-level weirdos was related to these people.

In the past, he always thought that these people were from the twelve zodiac signs, but after various things happened later, the possibility of them being from the twelve zodiac signs was very low.

But no matter what, the origins of this group of people are very mysterious. Once they are caught, perhaps many questions related to weirdness and strange people can be answered.

Shen Ge continued to rush towards the monster stronghold marked on the map, but just as he passed the street where those monsters were previously, the ground suddenly shook violently, and then several strange tentacles stretched out from the ground, locked onto Shen Ge's position and rolled towards him.

After the first strange tentacle broke out of the ground, it was followed by the second, the third... More than a dozen tentacles tore the earth apart, and blood-red magma gushed out from the ground.

"Magma?" Shen Ge was stunned when he saw the magma sweeping in like a sea wave. You know, with the "status" of Dajing, it is definitely impossible to be built on a magma zone. What's more, let alone Dajing, there are only a few cities in the entire Tianchao with underground magma belts.

Those strange tentacles that stretched out from the ground were soaked in magma. Not only were they not burned, but they were dyed a strange red color.

Seeing the overwhelming magma waves and the blood-red strange tentacles coming at the same time, Shen Ge had no time to think, and directly activated the three characteristics of "invisible + silent + traceless", and then used the invisible barrier to step on the tornado and heavy rain to move into the air, increasing the distance from the ground.

Those flesh and blood tentacles suddenly lost Shen Ge's "trace" and froze in mid-air, swaying left and right with the storm.

Shen Ge naturally would not waste time on these tentacles. He stepped on the invisible barrier and accelerated into the strange black fog, trying to rush into the abandoned neighborhood and find the monster's stronghold.

The giant monster in the strange black fog did not take any action and remained motionless. Since the other party did not move, Shen Ge naturally would not take the initiative to provoke the seventh-level monster.

Shen Ge moved by "tiptoeing" between the collapsed buildings through invisible barriers. As the area affected by the strange energy tornado in the air became larger and larger, the consumption of strange energy was also increasing rapidly.

Just when Shen Ge was trying to use the power of "misfortune" to divert the giant monster's attention by sending a flying star to it, he suddenly sensed the breath of dream fragments.

"Where is it?" Shen Ge looked around the giant monster through his weird eyes. If the Red Mist Armor and Xiao Qi were by his side at this moment, he would not consume such a huge amount of his weird energy whether locating the dream fragments or moving in this complex environment.

Without these two capable assistants, Shen Ge had to handle both offense and defense by himself. For the first time, he felt that his energy and cleverness were not enough.

At this moment, Shen Ge suddenly noticed that in the center of the chaotic strange black fog and tornado, there seemed to be a particularly obvious red light at the top of the giant strange head.

"That seems to be... a 'portal'?" The portal Shen Ge was talking about was not a real portal, but a portal that could be crossed through the artificial cells of the Ghost King on Sakura Island.

"Wait, this guy... could he also be an artificial ghost king?" Shen Ge suddenly thought of a possibility. After all, according to Wang Dong, this should be the base of monsters, so it is not surprising that these guys took the opportunity to create an artificial ghost king underground in Dajing.

Regardless of whether this guy is a man-made monster or not, Shen Ge has already sensed the breath of dream fragments in the red light, so he consumed one-fifth of his energy to hypnotize himself, and at the same time strengthened the three basic attributes of strength, agility and physique, and then continued to condense and reinforce the invisible barrier to move towards the red dot.

Although affected by the characteristic of "Traceless", neither the giant weirdness nor those weird tentacles could accurately locate Shen Ge's position, but just entering this area of ​​weird black fog, the erosion, and the resistance to the weird tornado and the acid-like rainstorm, Shen Ge's weird energy decline speed could not support him to reach the red light. Shen Ge still had three spirit apples left in his hand. Judging from the distance, he would probably need to use at least two to maintain defense and advance, but this was obviously not the time to consider saving. He ate a spirit apple in two or three bites while running, and accelerated towards the red light.

However, at the moment when Shen Ge took out the spiritual apple, he clearly felt that the giant monster hidden in the black fog of strange energy moved, as if an invisible gaze was locking onto him.

"Ok?"

What? Are you interested in this spiritual apple?
Sure enough, when the giant monster sensed the scent of the spiritual apple on Shen Ge's body, it was as if it had discovered something delicious, and even the black fog of weird energy became restless.

"Fuck, you really want to steal the apples, right?" After Shen Ge discovered that the giant monster was staring at him, the attacks of both the weird energy black fog and the weird tentacles became more and more fierce. Even though it couldn't see his specific location, it did not give up the attack and directly launched a regional coverage attack.

This caused Shen Ge's strange energy to be consumed faster, and he had to speed up the condensation of the invisible barrier to send him upwards to avoid the magma and strange tentacles below.

"Come out if you have the guts!" Shen Ge was forced to jump up and down and couldn't help but curse.

However, at this moment, a huge palm condensed from the thick black fog, covering the sky and the sun, just like the Buddha catching Monkey King.

"Damn, I was just talking!" Shen Ge saw the huge palm grabbing towards the air, as if it wanted to hold the entire area in its hand. Without time to think, he directly shattered the invisible barrier under his feet, causing himself to fall downwards at a high speed to avoid the opponent's attack.

At the same time, Shen Ge ate the second spiritual apple. He originally wanted to save one, but now it seems that the last spiritual apple has also become a disaster.

Shen Ge simply used all his strange energy to "amplify", raising his own attributes to the maximum, and then rushed towards the red light at the fastest speed.

Shen Ge's explosive speed even produced a sonic boom when he stepped on the invisible barrier. The invisible barrier was shattered, as if cracks appeared in the air.

After he no longer considered the consumption of strange energy, the attribute increase achieved by "amplification" had reached a terrifying level, allowing his level 5 rating to reach the level of a strange 6th level body.

Even if this "increase" is only temporary, his attributes will only return to their original levels after his strange energy reaches its lowest point.

This "outburst" of just a few dozen seconds allowed Shen Ge to rush into the area covered by the red light in the blink of an eye, and then stuffed the third apple into his mouth before his strange energy was exhausted.

Shen Ge originally maintained the characteristic of "invisibility" which created a shielding effect for himself. Logically speaking, no matter whether it was the magical equipment he took out or the magical items such as the Spirit Apple, they would all be affected by the shielding effect of the "invisible" magical fog, making it impossible for the outside world to lock onto them.

But I don’t know whether it was because the seventh-level weirdness was two levels higher than Shen Ge’s rating, or because the weird power contained in the spiritual apple was too powerful, but Shen Ge was locked even when he maintained the "invisible" characteristic state.

After Shen Ge swallowed the last spiritual apple, he was once again under the protection of "Invisibility". The giant monster lost its target and could only rage helplessly, smashing the surrounding ruins like a madman.

Shen Ge did not choose to continue fighting with the seventh-level weirdness, but seized the opportunity to break through the defense line, rushed straight towards the red light, and plunged directly into the red light.

If it were in the past, Shen Ge would definitely say, "Xiao Qi, scan and locate the dream fragments," and then concentrate on capturing the dream fragments.

But unfortunately, the capable assistant was not there, so Shen Ge had to do it himself, and thus, it became "the 365th day of missing Xiao Qi"...

After Shen Ge mobilized the power of the dream fragments, he quickly captured the breath of the dream fragments in the red light. He originally thought that the fragments were hidden in the strange body, like its heart, and he had even planned to use "collapse" to get in.

Unexpectedly, through the strange eyes, it was discovered that the dream fragments were "floating" in the air, in the center of the red light. If the area was viewed from a distance, the entire area formed by the red light looked like a giant strange head, and the glowing dream fragment was right in the center of the head.

Now Shen Ge understood everything completely. No wonder this weirdness that covered the sky and the sun gave him such a weird feeling. After all this time, it turned out that there was no such thing as a "giant weirdness" at all. Instead, the entire piece of weird black fog was the weirdness formed around the glowing dream fragment!

Shen Ge was standing in the center of the strange black fog and looking around. Only then did he "see clearly" the strange entity. It looked very much like the state after the fusion of Sakura Island and the strangeness. The difference was that this time, affected by the dream fragments, the strangeness fused not only the earth, but also the strange black fog that filled the sky.

Shen Ge originally wanted to lock onto the strange "entity", but at this time the dream fragment was already in front of him. Between dealing with the weirdness and establishing a connection with "reality", he chose the latter. After all, as long as he successfully established the connection and located the position of the dream fragment, he could come back anytime to deal with the weirdness.

If we can bring along two capable assistants, the Red Mist Armor and Xiao Qi, it will be much easier to deal with this Ghost King, and there is no need to use consumables to fight against the opponent.

This time the only three spirit apples left in his hand have been used up. Shen Ge can only pin his hopes on the few remaining draws, hoping to win a few more spirit apples.

The power of dreams was locked, and once the strange domain was opened, Shen Ge successfully "captured" the dream fragments in the strange black fog and sensed the "reality".

Cracks appeared in the sky of the entire world, just like the previous time when Shen Ge shattered the world and returned to reality. The next second, Shen Ge began to fall rapidly.

This time, without the defense of the Red Mist Armor, the strange energy tentacles and the characteristic of "sticking" to the walls, Shen Ge can only rely on himself to condense an invisible barrier.

boom!
boom!
boom!
Shen Ge condensed three layers of invisible barriers in the air and broke three layers in succession. It was not until the fourth layer that he used the power of dreams to dissolve the impact and finally stabilized his body in mid-air.

Shen Ge felt like he was about to fall apart. He stood up shakily and looked around. Below him was a busy downtown area, and in the distance was a cordoned off area under martial law.

Dajing, he successfully returned! (End of this chapter)
