Bab 1367: 1569
**Chapter 1569: Divine City Task: Exploring the Poison Bee Secret Realm**
Whether Qiu Ji was willing or not, he handed over the information. On the surface, it seemed that Mu Xiaogu forced him to hand it over. In reality, Lin Moyu had already noticed that Qiu Ji gave it willingly. If he didn't want to give it, he wouldn't have spoken up at all. It was precisely because he heard that Lin Moyu was going to the secret realm and that he was Mu Xiaogu's friend that he deliberately spoke up.
Moreover, Lin Moyu could sense that Qiu Ji looked at Mu Xiaogu differently; it was clear that he liked her. When Lin Moyu and Mu Xiaogu entered the teahouse together, he felt a sense of hostility from Qiu Ji. This hostility disappeared after he heard their conversation. However, Mu Xiaogu, being straightforward, didn't seem to notice Qiu Ji's feelings.
Lin Moyu took the jade token and thanked Qiu Ji, "Thank you, Senior Brother Qiu."
Regardless of its usefulness, it was something Qiu Ji risked his life to obtain. Qiu Ji waved his hand, "No problem, just don't die in there for Senior Sister Mu's sake."
"You have such a foul mouth!" Mu Xiaogu glared at Qiu Ji, looking displeased.
Qiu Ji smiled and didn't argue back; he wasn't angry at all. Lin Moyu naturally understood that Qiu Ji was deliberately saying this. Since he couldn't leave a good impression, he might as well deepen the bad one. The principle was simple: keep deepening the impression. Sometimes, this roundabout tactic worked well.
Mu Xiaogu said to Lin Moyu, "Don't mind him. Look at the information before you go to the secret realm. Safety first."
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Senior Sister Mu, actually, Senior Brother Qiu is a good person."
Mu Xiaogu rolled her eyes at Qiu Ji, "With that foul mouth of his, how is he good?"
Lin Moyu said, "Senior Sister, think about it. No matter what you say to Senior Brother Qiu, has he ever gotten angry?"
Mu Xiaogu tilted her head and thought for a moment, murmuring, "It seems he hasn't. So, besides his foul mouth, his temper is quite good."
Lin Moyu stopped there and didn't say more. He didn't know if Qiu Ji had a good temper, but he was sure that Qiu Ji had a good temper when it came to Mu Xiaogu. He was just guessing, and it turned out to be true. At this moment, he felt Qiu Ji's grateful gaze. It was clear that Qiu Ji had heard what he said. Qiu Ji was a very smart person, often very meticulous. On the other hand, Mu Xiaogu was straightforward and carefree, a bold and forthright woman. Softness and boldness indeed matched well.
Night fell, and a bright moon could be seen in the sky. This was a satellite of the star, looking like it wasn't naturally formed, with obvious signs of artificial creation. In human mythology, the moon holds significant importance and has extraordinary meaning. In reality, the moon's existence brings vitality to the star. Most life stars have moons. Even if they don't, the God Sovereigns and God Kings would modify them, which isn't difficult.
Lin Moyu arrived at a grassland on the star, sat on the grass, and gazed at the starry sky. There was a starry sky here, and also a galaxy, very beautiful. "I haven't looked at the night sky like this for many years!"
He remembered that in the small world, there were many nights when he would gaze at the starry sky, wondering what the great world was like. At that time, Ning Yiyi, Shu Han, Mu Qianqian, and Mo Yun would accompany him. They didn't need to talk; just the feeling was something he liked. But now, he could only look at it alone.
After a long time, Lin Moyu started the task system in the Divine City for the first time. Unlike the task system in the four major star regions, it didn't require a task center or a task platform; it could be directly activated in the Human Emperor Network. With a thought, a list appeared before his eyes, listing the tasks he could currently take.
There weren't many tasks, only eight, covering only the nearby star systems. The tasks in the Divine City were restricted by star systems, realms, and danger levels. Some tasks required a minimum realm of the eighth level of the God King, which Lin Moyu couldn't take. Since he couldn't take them, he couldn't see them. Some tasks were very difficult, and to verify that you could take on high-difficulty tasks and not just go to your death, the Human Emperor Network would arrange some prerequisite tasks. Only after completing the prerequisite tasks could you take on subsequent tasks. Sometimes, after completing a task, new tasks would appear, indicating that the task just completed was a prerequisite for another task. Overall, the task system in the Divine City had become more rigorous. This also indicated that the task difficulty and danger had increased.
Among the eight tasks Lin Moyu could currently take, only one was a secret realm task. And only this task had the best rewards. The secret realm task could reward 10 points of Divine City merits, while ordinary tasks generally only rewarded 1 point of Divine City merit, plus some points. These points could also be used to upgrade permission levels, so people who left the Divine City didn't have low permission levels.
After taking the task, Lin Moyu received detailed information about it.
**[Divine City Task: Explore the Poison Bee Secret Realm.]**
**[Enter the Poison Bee Secret Realm and eliminate the poison bee swarm.]**
**[Restriction: Only God Kings of the fourth to ninth levels can enter.]**
**[Completion Condition: Obtain the corpse of the Poison Bee Queen.]**
**[Task Reward: 10 points of Divine City merits, no penalty for failure.]**
**[Note: The Poison Bee Secret Realm has a large number of poison bees, with strengths ranging from the third to ninth levels of the God King. Poison bees possess strong poison, so prepare antidote pills.]**
**[Occasionally, a Poison Bee King may be born among the poison bees. If encountered, escape immediately.]**
**[You can use Divine City merits to purchase escape talismans. If in danger, use the escape talisman to leave the secret realm.]**
After entering the great world, Lin Moyu had entered secret realms before. Whether it was the virtual secret realms created by the Human Emperor Network or the real-world secret realms, he had been in both. But judging from the task description alone, the danger level of the Poison Bee Secret Realm was higher. Moreover, this secret realm felt very much like a dungeon in the small world.
After taking the task, a virtual map appeared before Lin Moyu's eyes. The map guided him to the location of the secret realm. Lin Moyu wasn't in a hurry to go; he took out the jade token given by Qiu Ji. Activating the jade token, he read the information inside. Qiu Ji had recorded his experiences in the secret realm in the jade token.
After entering the secret realm, Qiu Ji quickly encountered a swarm of poison bees. The swarm numbered about a thousand, with the weakest at the third level of the God King and the strongest at the fifth level. With Qiu Ji's strength, dealing with them wasn't a problem. Indeed, Qiu Ji easily dealt with the poison bee swarm. He then encountered two more swarms in succession, but they were also easily dealt with. It was precisely because of this that he let his guard down. When he encountered the fifth swarm, Qiu Ji discovered the poison bee nest. The Poison Bee Queen was usually in the nest, and he thought the task wasn't difficult, so he boldly went in.
In the nest, he encountered a large number of poison bees, but they weren't his match and didn't pose a threat to him. However, unknowingly, Qiu Ji suddenly found himself poisoned, and his combat power began to decline. At that time, he still held a glimmer of hope. Although his combat power had decreased, it was still within an acceptable range. Later, he indeed found the Poison Bee Queen. Just as he was about to kill it, the poison fully took effect. He lost his combat power in an instant and saw a giant poison bee next to the Poison Bee Queen. This poison bee was huge, not smaller than the Poison Bee Queen. It sprayed terrifying poison mist, almost killing him on the spot. In the last moment of losing consciousness, Qiu Ji activated the escape talisman and escaped. After escaping, he took several days to recover, truly a narrow escape from death!
