Ling Yi smiled.

Once her giggles subsided, Ling Yi turned a little more serious, "Is there no way for you to recover?"

Lin Shurou's smile froze, and her smiles withered instantly.

"God's Path did give us a way to return…." She let out a long sigh, "But... It's impossible." Lin Shurou looked as though she had lost all hope, but when she saw Ling Yi listening attentively to her, she slowly continued, "As long as…."

After a long and winded explanation, Ling Yi nodded in understanding.

"So, in short, other players have to enter your district and clear all the monsters living there." At Lin Shurou's nod, Ling Yi's eyes widened in surprise, "It doesn't sound that difficult."

Lin Shurou smiled thinly and pinched his ear gently. "Weren't you listening to what I said? I said that only a team of five level 30 and below players can enter."

"Oh, then that's very difficult." Ling Yi nonchalantly agreed just to appease the girl.

The truth was, Ling Yi was confident that it was possible to defeat the Beast King and its minions on his own, as long as he had the same amount of power as them.

Of course, he didn't have the strength to do so now.

However, as long as he continued to work hard and stick to his plans, he knew he could be stronger a lot sooner than later.

Especially with the Super Mutation system on his side!

This goal wasn't too far out of his grasp.

"If...." Ling Yi turned to look at Lin Shurou, "I'm saying if. If one day I annihilate the Beast King and all the monsters in your district. You can't take back your words."

Lin Shurou rolled her eyes and smiled indifferently, "Hehe, if you can save my district… Not only will I give you that skill, but also all my treasures, weapons, items, and even my entire house will be yours,"

"Really?" Ling Yi was interested.

"Hehe." Lin Shurou covered her mouth and chuckled. "Don't even think about it. That's impossible." She then patted Ling Yi's forehead and said, "But I'm just happy that you even thought about helping me,"

The casual touch surprised and warmed Ling Yi's heart. He realized she was much more comfortable with him than when they first met.

In the beginning, she had kept a certain distance from him, and even when she spoke to him, she would stammer and speak softly. But now, she even dared to pinch his ears and pat his forehead.

Now, she talked to him as if he was her friend.

What was the cause of this sudden change?

Ling Yi was still wandering about this when Lin Shurou's voice suddenly snapped him out, "By the way, I want to thank you. After all, it was thanks to your protective talisman that kept me safe from those two strangers. What do you want to eat for lunch? Think of it as a reward for your hard work."

"Ah, then can I..."

...

In the end, he ordered takeout for lunch because Lin Shurou fell asleep again before noon.

He had to carry her back to her room to let her sleep peacefully.

By the time he had finished his lunch, it was almost one in the afternoon. With his stomach full, Ling Yi felt at peace and let his mind relax.

He returned to his bedroom and sat at his desk, enjoying the natural breeze from the window. Then his mind wandered to the conversation he had this morning.

'Other than Shurou and that Zhao Ze guy, there might have been someone else who saw the little fight outside the courtyard earlier. If someone were to come and do an investigation on me, they would find out that I have reached level 10 in just two days.'

When the God's Path Historical Tablet was updated, the world would know that he had reached level 10 in just two days.

But that was still half a year away. And by then, he would have already grown up and be fearless.

He was only level 10 or so and still had room to grow.

If people found out, he could always hide at home. But that would be very troublesome.

'Looks like I'll have to give up on joining the 'Genius Plan,''

He had originally planned to head to the Divine Union branch a week from now to register for 'becoming Divine Union's Foreign Aid through the Genius Plan' and to get his subsidy for reaching level 10.

Who knew that plans could not keep up with the changes that are called life?

If he went now, there would be a big risk of people finding out.

Other than that, if he ran into Fang Cheng and told him he was a new player in June, he didn't even dare to imagine what the situation would become.

'But now that I'm living with Shurou, I don't need to worry about my rent. I don't need the subsidy.'

He had initially considered asking for the Divine Union's help since he didn't have an official residence. He planned to earn money by joining the Foreign Aid to buy a place to live.

Money wasn't that urgent now that he had a place to live.

To him, it was good enough to be stronger and earn gold coins in God's Path. What more does he need?

One gold coin could be exchanged for 50 global dollars.

And he had quickly earned gold coins on God's Path. So, he doesn't need to tire himself out and just let himself rest in the main world.

Rest is important!

As if an invincible burden had lifted from his shoulders, he fell further into relaxation. He didn't realize that the thought of money and anxiety of being found had been lurking in the corner of his mind. And now, he was so relaxed that he felt so sluggish.

Both his heart and mind were free from worry.

'But…' He suddenly remembered the intelligence-lowering skill that Lin Shurou had mentioned. 'Even though I don't have to go to the Divine Union anymore if I have that skill….'

For some reason, he felt that "strange skills" like this would have an exaggerated effect.

He wouldn't pass this up.

'If the mutation can produce a better effect, it can be beneficial in many situations…' Ling Yi's thoughts started to wander.

He fantasized about all the things he could do with such a skill for a while.

Another breeze played with his hair, and as the cold caressed his cheeks, he made up his mind.

"The Beast King of District 87, huh? Looks like I'll have to have a close combat skill and power up my strength to be able to defeat it,"

This was the first challenge Ling Yi would have to overcome since returning to the main world.

"Hehe, this would be interesting."

He was filled with anticipation and excitement.

The only way to release District 87 from its "curse" was to defeat the Beast King. If he killed the Beast King first, killing off the other monster would be a breeze.

Since that was the case, he must learn more about this Beast King.

With great vigor, Ling Yi logged onto the forum and searched for information related to the "District 87 Assessment Incident".

And sure enough, he could obtain general information about the Beast King.

[Five-Crested Giant Dragon (Beast King)]

[Level: 30]

[Characteristics: 120 meters tall, about 90 000 tons] It can fly 3 000 meters per second and run 300 meters per second on flat terrain. Its wings could create a storm with a speed of 30 meters per second. Immune to crowd control.

It has five black dragon heads, and each dragon head has its specialty.

These five abilities are:

[ 1. Can release sound waves that shock the mind and distract the player's attention.]

[2. Able to spew poisonous mist.]

[3. Heals the body and regenerates the other dragon heads.]

[4. Able to release thunderbolts.]

[5. Possess the ability to possess the mind and control the brain.]

This was the information that the players from District 87 had obtained after battling against it.

Although all 10 000 of the players had been defeated, they had at least figured out the Beast King's ability to its detail.

And to Ling Yi, it doesn't sound as bad as the rumors made it out to be.
