Chapter 5 - Ran Away Overnight with the Car

Mo Shuying was glad that this anomalous space had everything except living creatures.

Before, due to limited time, he had only managed to hastily make two Molotov Cocktails. Now, with time on his hands, he could really get some good stuff done.

First up were the Molotov Cocktails. They were really useful. Mo Shuying found a supermarket, hummed a tune about free shopping, and began pushing a cart, quickly filling it up.

This was a large supermarket, and the lights were still on. The refrigeration and air conditioning units were also running.

Mo Shuying didn't quite understand the principle behind it. It was clearly just an incomplete plural space, yet why was it so real? Was this magic?

"Huh? What's this?"

Mo Shuying walked until he reached the outdoor sports section. There, he saw a whole row of baseball bats, but these weren't what caught his eye. What attracted Mo Shuying were the several Entrenching Tools.

"This shovel seems pretty good..."

He casually picked one up and swung it a few times. The weight was good, the feel was nice, and he touched the exposed part of the protective casing on the shovel's edge—it was very sharp. At about 1.2 meters long, it looked like it would deal more damage than his metal baseball bat.

"A multi-functional entrenching tool. It's quite versatile. Nice, I'll take one."

Mo Shuying chose a suitable one and put it in his cart. He wandered around for a bit longer, then finally sat down in the drinks section, casually grabbed a bottle of soda, opened it, took a sip, and began making items.

A Molotov Cocktail, also known as a Molotov Cocktail, is a simple yet powerful weapon to make. All it requires is a bottle, some flammable liquid, and a stopper for the bottle's mouth soaked in flammable liquid, which can be paper or cloth.

Mo Shuying quickly made twenty bottles. It wasn't that he couldn't make more or lacked materials; it was simply that he couldn't carry any more.

Even these twenty bottles were difficult to carry. Mo Shuying placed them on the small cart and transported them out along with other items. Along the way, Mo Shuying was very careful, as it was a cart full of dangerous goods, and if they exploded, he would be in trouble.

Fortunately, the journey went smoothly. Mo Shuying placed over a dozen bottles around the intersection where the monsters appeared, with a few remaining in the cart.

Then, since there was electricity, he could also make use of it.

Several hours later.

"Phew, that should be about right now."

Looking at the intersection, which was now surrounded by layers of steel wire, Mo Shuying attached two electric wire clamps, connected to power, to the coiled wires. A spark of electricity immediately transferred, indicating that the power was connected.

Mo Shuying swallowed, looking at the faintly sparkling steel wire. He didn't dare to test if it was actually electrified. He turned and dragged the cart into a nearby coffee shop, sitting by the window where he could directly see the intersection. After watching for half an hour, Mo Shuying grew bored again.

He checked the time; it was about 9 AM in normal time. At this hour, the old Mo Shuying would still be sleeping, but after becoming a Heroic Spirit, even if he was the weakest Heroic Spirit, his need for sleep seemed to have diminished greatly.

He had stayed up all night yet was still energetic, and he had been busy for several hours yet felt no fatigue. Mo Shuying deeply felt that his body was no longer human.

Just as Mo Shuying was sighing with melancholy, the System's voice rang in his ear.

Ding~ Detecting that the host is idle and about to enter a state of lethargy, the System issues a daily quest.

Quest 1: Explore this anomalous dimension, locate the dimensional boundary, and rewards will be issued based on exploration progress.

"..."

Mo Shuying was stunned upon hearing the System's sudden quest, and his first reaction was:

"Can I not go?"

Boredom was one thing, but he really didn't want to move.

If the host refuses to complete the daily quest, the System will disable the daily quest function. Please note, daily quests provide a large amount of items and experience.

"..."

Since the System said so, there was no choice. Mo Shuying reluctantly got up, walked out of the coffee shop, picked up a bicycle from the roadside, and began exploring the space.

Mounting the bike, Mo Shuying gave a light push with his foot and shot forward a considerable distance. Mo Shuying's eyes widened in surprise; he could feel his strength increasing again.

It made sense. As time passed, the effects of Gathering Storm would continuously manifest. An A++ super skill, given enough time, could definitely create a terrifying existence.

Moreover, this amplification was comprehensive. Every point of attack would increase Mo Shuying's own strength, every point of magic power would grow along with his mental strength, and the increase in magic energy enhanced his entire body. He believed that given enough time, all of Mo Shuying's stats would improve.

"Haha! This is exhilarating!"

Mo Shuying had never imagined that riding a bicycle could be so enjoyable. He seemed to have fallen in love with the feeling. He and his bike swept up a gust of wind, speeding across the empty road. At this moment, Mo Shuying only lacked a Green Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand, otherwise he would surely perform something akin to Riding Alone for a Thousand Miles.

Mo Shuying rode through street after street, then stopped at the entrance of a large bridge.

Fuyuki City only had one large bridge. A long river connecting to the sea divided Fuyuki City in two, and the bridge was also a landmark of Fuyuki City.

Mo Shuying stood at the bridge's entrance and did not proceed further. It wasn't that he didn't want to cross the bridge, but rather that there was no road ahead.

"Is this the edge?"

Before him, though he could see the magnificent bridge, there was a transparent barrier blocking his way.

Mo Shuying dismounted and touched the invisible obstruction, then punched it hard. There was no reaction whatsoever.

After one punch, Mo Shuying understood. This barrier before him was an insurmountable chasm. At this moment, Mo Shuying felt like a bird in a cage.

However, Mo Shuying quickly shook his head to cast off this thought, got back on his bicycle, and began riding around the barrier. He rode for more than half a day.

"Finally reached the end? This must be Ryuudou Temple up there! It's blocked too!"

After riding for a long time, Mo Shuying arrived at the foot of a small mountain. Ahead was a deep, winding mountain path. Mo Shuying determined that this path led to Ryuudou Temple. Don't ask how he knew; just ask the sign at the foot of the mountain.

From Fuyuki Bridge to Ryuudou Temple, Mo Shuying had finally covered a good portion of the anomalous space. The straight-line distance wasn't much, but due to the edge barrier, Mo Shuying had to take many detours, so by the time he reached the foot of Ryuudou Temple, it was already dark.

As the sky darkened, Mo Shuying, who was about to turn back and leave, suddenly felt a mysterious spiritual force pierce into the sky of the anomalous space, but it was consumed and extinguished before it could enter very far.

Realizing this, Mo Shuying was instantly terrified! He dared not linger! He got on his bike and fled!

But he quickly found the bicycle too slow. He dismounted, hoisted the bike onto his shoulder, and continued running!
