Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!-Chapter 561 - 150: Hundreds of Eels Take the Lead (Autumn Moon Love Moon Ticket)

After sending the message, Xu Shu waited for half an hour but did not receive a reply from the bishop.

He didn’t think much of it; at four or five in the morning, people were still sleeping and surely wouldn’t reply promptly.

As long as his message was delivered, as the informant, he didn’t need to particularly care about the follow-up.

However, there was another matter that somewhat concerned Xu Shu.

That was the lack of news from Xie Xiaochan.

She had previously made plans with him, saying that once they were Second-order Transcendents, they would go together to conquer the ruins.

Frankly speaking, Xu Shu was quite interested in that, as it clearly involved his "Arthur" and "Shen Valley First-class" two Dao Marks.

Although the ruins were dangerous, Xu Shu really wasn’t afraid; after all, once inside the ruins, the Tai Chu Scroll’s journey mode would switch to "Superdimensional Mode."

Out in the wasteland, he was meek, but in the ruins, he could really do as he pleased!

So, why hadn’t she come to look for him yet?

"Strange, could it be that the Female Void Palace’s mountain closure isn’t over yet?"

"Thinking about the time, so many days have passed, the baby bumps of those foster mothers of mine should have subsided by now, right?"

Xu Shu was puzzled and thought about whether he should log in and check the situation.

But after some thought, he decided there was no rush and could wait another couple of days. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Just right, he could first return to the safe zone these few days, do some trading at the Star Tower, consolidate the resources he had accumulated, swap them around, convert them into strength, and then enter the ruins to greatly boost his efficiency.

The urgent task at hand was to rapidly improve himself!

He used to think that on this wasteland, First Rank was enough to protect oneself, and a Second Rank Transcendent could travel anywhere.

But now, it seemed, without the power of Third Rank, it might be difficult to establish a standing outside.

Having made up his mind, Xu Shu planned a bit; he could return home a bit later today.

It was about to be daybreak, and the Tai Chu Scroll was about to refresh; he wasn’t planning to visit the bride using "Continuation of Legends" just yet.

In the safe zone, the Tai Chu Scroll could only be used to open the mode for "Continuation of Legends."

Other modes like Epic Creation and Journey were not usable unless Xu Shu wanted to blow up the Star Tower or get blown up by it.

In that case, why not refresh a Curse Seal Altar today?

Xu Shu touched his chin, thinking this idea wasn’t bad.

Just right, it also allowed him to test whether he could obtain better quality life pools outside the safe zone?

If that were the case, he might consider changing his approach going forward.

If he didn’t have to worry about the source of high-quality Curse Seals, then maybe he could become a top merchant—specializing in selling Epic level seals!

Xu Shu looked at the newly obtained [Martial Artist] altar with a face full of ambition.

If he could sort out the issue with the quality of the life pools, even letting "Tai Chu" enter the business scene and directly switch to becoming the ’Master of Many Treasures’ was not out of the question!

Of course, whether this path was feasible still depended on the results of today’s experiment.

With an expectant mood, Xu Shu quietly waited until dawn.

With the whitening of the eastern sky, the Tai Chu Scroll rustled open, revealing familiar script:

[Rising sun revives everything, welcome back to the Tai Chu Scroll, great master!]

[Today’s remaining openings: 3/3]

Every morning when the first light shines on the earth, the Tai Chu Scroll is at its most polite, using respectful titles only at this time.

Xu Shu didn’t rush into the legendary mode but first entered into the journey.

It is said, "Lust leads to evil, prudence comes first!"

Regarding yesterday’s events, Xu Shu seemed as steady as an old dog, but in reality, he was somewhat scared afterwards.

After all, those were two Third Rank, plus who knows how many First Rank; the vast wasteland seemed calm on the surface but was actually full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. One never knew when a high-level powerhouse might emerge from some corner.

He couldn’t be reckless, absolutely couldn’t be reckless.

First, he would check if it was safe outside the safe zone today.

Xu Shu’s will touched the void, rustling, before him the fog swirled, converging into a series of shifting lights and shadows:

[Checking current status...]

[Check complete.]

[Iron Armor marches, not a blade of grass grows. New Calendar Eighteenth Year, today you are yet another hero; the Wasteland is vast, do you wish to take a look?]

Hmm, not using ’Your situation is quite dire’ today?

Xu Shu was slightly surprised, feeling mostly reassured within.

This meant the area around him might really be safe.

[You quietly descend the stairs and find the entire shelter well kept, people in the hall line up in an orderly manner to buy breakfast, brimming with vitality, almost making one forget that hundreds had died here last night without falling into decline.]

[Simultaneously, you notice these ’volunteers’ are very familiar, being part of the group of refugees you saved last night.]

[Clearly, these are clever people who, taking advantage of the headless chaos of the shelter, moved in to become the new shopkeepers.]

[The guests on the second, third, and fourth floors failed to notice anything unusual, nor did anyone ask why the receptionist at the front desk changed, with only a middle-aged woman wandering around distraught, asking if anyone had seen her son; her husband and son were staying in the room right above yours.]

[You decide to test the waters by joining the line and buying breakfast.]

[Nobody recognizes you, the auntie at the window charges you 100 dollars for breakfast, and you leave satisfied.]

[Hey, you should even say thank you!]

[Leaving the shelter, you look around and notice groups of convoys converging in the direction of the safe zone from time to time.]
