355: Chapter 355 Tenth-Order Magic Core

"What kind of look is that?"

Dantai Qingyue glanced sideways and noticed Qin Ge's gaze, which was staring intently at her.

His expression was filled with dominance and cruelty.

It was as if he were a starving wolf, ready to pounce on her at any moment without regard for anything else.

With a smile playing on his lips, Qin Ge said playfully, "I've seen many beautiful women, but someone as stunning as you is a first. Every moment you give off a breathtaking feeling."

Dressed in a simple skirt, Dantai Qingyue's skin was fair and translucent.

Her entire being seemed as if she were carved from fine jade.

At all times, she radiated an unparalleled charm from the inside out.

Of course, Qin Ge wasn't so infatuated that he lost his sanity.

He was just considering the feasibility of taking Dantai Qingyue by force and imposing his will on her.

After weighing it for a moment, Qin Ge reached a conclusion.

Taking Dantai Qingyue now would be a sure thing.

After all, this was the Doomsday World; Dantai Qingyue's strength was severely suppressed, with not even a tenth remaining.

She couldn't possibly be his opponent.

Unfortunately, if he acted recklessly, Dantai Qingyue would surely harbor a death wish and wither away in this Doomsday World.

Dantai Qingyue was an external cheat tool that could guarantee a one hundred percent win rate for his prize draws.

Let alone her soul dissipating...

Even if she lost a single strand of hair, he wouldn't allow it!

Most importantly, if he caused Dantai Qingyue's death, he feared that upon returning to the Dragon Country, a backlash would occur, making it impossible to ever win a prize draw again.

For the sustainable development of Dantai Qingyue as an external cheat tool, Qin Ge temporarily abandoned the idea of going all-in.

A moment later, Dantai Qingyue stood up and said seriously, "It's time to set out."

"We stayed in the Dragon Country for nearly two days, which means almost twenty days have passed in this Doomsday World. I don't know if that secret base I found still exists."

Qiao Beibei patted her flat stomach, gritted her teeth, and said, "Let's go take a look together!"

...

Over an hour later, at the northernmost part of the abandoned city.

The area where Qin Ge's trio appeared had clear skies and piercing sunlight.

Before them, however, was an area filled with blood, filth, and darkness.

The city was still the same city, but on the other side of a clear dividing line, it looked as if it had been ravaged by decades of time; the entire city had begun to fall into ruin, covered in rust.

Dantai Qingyue spoke with a solemn expression, "Inside, there is a creature that shouldn't belong to the Doomsday World. It's different from a zombie, yet its strength is terrifyingly high."

"The aura dissipating from its body is desolate and horrifying, capable of causing the surrounding environment to change accordingly."

"These rust-covered buildings have all been contaminated by its aura."

"Bei Bei, stay close to me!"

Qiao Beibei shook her head. "Don't be in such a hurry!"

"I'll scout out the situation on the other side!"

In front of Qin Ge and Dantai Qingyue, Qiao Beibei walked over to a utility pole. As she raised her hand, crackling electrical currents flickered in her palm.

Following the wires trailing on the ground, the electricity surged rapidly toward the rust-covered area.

Qin Ge walked to her side, looking down curiously. "The wires over there are probably mostly destroyed by corrosion."

Qiao Beibei's eyes lit up with joy as she said seriously, "It's not just the wires; I can also investigate information through the fiber optic cables buried underground.

Thanks to that monster's protection, there aren't as many zombie riots here, so the underground fiber optic cables and other lines aren't damaged and are extremely well-preserved!"

As she spoke, Qiao Beibei's expression became increasingly terrified, and she muttered under her breath, "One!"

"Two!"

"..."

"Eight!"

*Gulp!*

Qiao Beibei swallowed hard with difficulty, then turned her gaze upward to Dantai Qingyue. "Beautiful Master, there are eight Tenth-Order Espers in there similar to you!"

"There's also an area that is extremely gloomy; all the lines there no longer exist, so I haven't been able to scout it yet."

Qiao Beibei didn't know exactly how strong Dantai Qingyue was.

However, she could clearly feel the pressure those monsters exerted on her.

It wasn't the least bit inferior to her Beautiful Master.

They were terrifying existences at least on the level of a Tenth-Order Esper.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have made her, an Eighth-tier Lightning Ability User, tremble all over and feel such dread just from a single glance.

"Regardless, this is currently the only place where we can get close to those invaders!"

Just as Dantai Qingyue was about to persuade Qiao Beibei to retreat in the face of such difficulties...

Qiao Beibei had already followed Qin Ge's lead and stepped into that desolate area.

Rumble—

As the two of them stepped into the desolate area together, the surrounding rust-covered skyscrapers suddenly began to shake.

Countless fragments of stone mixed with soil rising from the ground.

They formed a stone monster that looked like a giant, standing dozens of meters tall.

Roar—

The stone monster leaned forward and let out a thunderous roar.

Countless stones splattered toward Qin Ge and Qiao Beibei like spray from a mouth.

It raised its giant arm, a mixture of steel and concrete, and slammed it toward Qin Ge like a small mountain.

Swish—

Just as the giant arm was about to strike down.

A pale red sword light whistled forth.

The sword light was like a swimming snake, climbing up the giant arm.

Chirp, chirp, chirp—

As the sword light erupted, the giant arm made of countless boulders instantly crumbled, turning into scattered debris.

Dantai Qingyue's graceful steps tapped the ground, and she stepped on the splashing debris as if they were stairs, ascending step by step into the air.

A flash of light flickered briefly in her cold, beautiful eyes.

With a thrust of her sword, a pale red sword light shot out violently.

It accurately pierced the stone giant's abdomen, blasting out a large crater.

From within the crater, a humanoid creature was blasted out of the giant's body by the sword light. It crashed to the ground, vomiting large amounts of black blood.

"You... you cannot kill me!"

"The immortal Lady Witch is about to descend."

"If you kill me, Lady Witch will bring down heavenly punishment upon you!"

"..."

Slash—

Before the alien could finish speaking, Dantai Qingyue severed its head with a single sword stroke.

After the body exploded, an earth-brown demon core slowly emerged, floating in mid-air.

Dantai Qingyue turned to look at Qin Ge and said suspiciously, "This is different from a corpse core."

"A demon core. These are the cores of the Demon Race, and they serve a similar purpose to corpse cores," Qin Ge said directly without concealment. "The world will allowed corpse cores to be born within zombies so that Ability Users could gradually adapt to this power and eventually absorb these demon cores to become stronger!"

"This single demon core is enough to create a Tenth-Order Earth Ability User!"

After speaking, Qin Ge put away the tenth-order demon core. Holding Qiao Beibei's slender waist and occasionally commenting on the high quality of her blue high-waisted jeans, he strolled deeper into the area.
