My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 6 Warning: Gamma Ray Exceeding Standards

Time passes bit by bit.

The setting sun gradually turned gentle and rosy.

"...Found it, I found it!" The bear-headed man scrambled down a vine, his face flushed with excitement, and he tumbled and crawled toward Chu Zhu's location.

"What did you find?" The dog-headed man, who was hungry and had started a fire next to Chu Zhu in preparation for a hot meal, had his eyes light up.

"...Big brother, why didn't you call me for dinner?" The bear-headed man blinked, looked at the bamboo lunchbox in Chu Zhu's hand, then glanced at the skewered meat in the dog-headed man's hand, and began to feel aggrieved.

"Eat, eat, all you know is eating!" The dog-headed man pulled a wrapped rice ball from his pocket. "Eat it cold! You'll die if you don't eat it... Hurry up and lead the way."

“…Oh!” After swallowing the rice ball, the bear-headed man began to climb.

"?" Chu Zhu climbed, lost in thought. Could it really be the way up? Goodness, dreams are getting more and more illogical… Hopefully, it won't turn out that you can get in without the key…

then……

The middle one of the three mountains, the summit.

"...Are you serious?" Chu Zhu looked at him with an unusually stiff expression.

"You're kidding me!" The dog-headed man slapped the bear-headed man's head hard. "The more I look at this thing, the more it looks like a volcanic crater, even though there's no volcanic ash or heat inside, it's just a sinkhole on a mountaintop..."

"So, if the mountain we're standing on really is a building, then this location, this shape, isn't it just a chimney? The architectural structure I studied shouldn't be too far off... That's how houses are built in the countryside!" The bear-headed man shrank his neck, looking aggrieved. "Can't you get into the house through a chimney?"

"...Huh?!" The dog-headed man was surprised. Upon closer examination, it did seem to make sense.

"Then hurry up, weave a rope with vines and slide down!" The dog-headed man rubbed his hands together, very excited.

Chu Zhu didn't comment, but fumbled for the key, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper. He sensed something was wrong... If there really was such a large hole, one could get in through the chimney... Was the key really useless? It wasn't impossible, but the chances were slim.

Moreover, this method of getting in is too easy... to the point of being ridiculous and laughable!

the most important is……

"Based on our previous experience, the time should be about right!"

"...What do you mean?" The dog-headed man looked at Chu Zhu in confusion.

"They're here." Chu Zhu looked into the distance.

The leaves rustled, and the sound of hurried footsteps echoed in the wind.

The dog-headed man followed Chu Zhu's gaze and saw the people who emerged from the shadows—those figures dressed in flying fish robes and holding pendulums, whose appearances were exactly the same as those he had glimpsed through the rear window of the car earlier.

However, compared to their previous Zhongshan suits, they were now wearing flying fish suits.

"Du, Duweisi!" The dog-headed man's scalp tingled, his face turned pale, and his legs went weak. He was so frightened that he jumped directly into the sinkhole that resembled a chimney.

"B-Big Brother!" The bear-headed man was stunned. "How did you die... Why did you commit suicide... What happened... No, Captain... Why is it Captain, wait a minute, Captain, is that a superhuman?"

The bear-headed man was greatly shocked at that moment and stood there stunned.

The group led by the Commandant was led by a tall man, about 1.9 meters tall, with a square face and large, powerful muscles.

Chu Zhu clicked his tongue in amazement. In the real world, only ruthless skills and advanced technology could create a superhuman body of this caliber... Of course, if such a thing could be created in the real world, it would probably be time to ascend to a steroid planet!
"...Chu, Chu Zhu, how could it be you?!" The leading man was stunned. Even though he was standing at the foot of the mountain, he could still see Chu Zhu's face on the mountain peak, or rather, on the chimney, thanks to his superhuman eyesight.

This... he recognizes this young man!

"Bye-bye!" Chu Zhu smiled and waved. "See you next time."

Then, Chu Zhu calmly jumped down. This time, since she'd been caught… let's start over!
Chu Zhu wasn't afraid of death; what he feared was dying at the wrong time. The random reset every 24 hours had its limitations.

If the reset time is too late, causing you to get stuck... then you'll need to spend an unknown amount of extra effort to fix the problem.

Chu Zhu had suffered greatly from this before.

For example, if the Commandant's men knock him unconscious, he will be unconscious for twenty-four hours... No, considering that more than ten hours have passed since he robbed the bank, if it exceeds five hours, the situation will become very troublesome.

"...Why!" Team leader Li Kang appeared at the edge of the sinkhole almost instantly, his figure flashing like lightning. He tried to grab Chu Zhu, but couldn't reach her at all. Unless he went inside now...

"Captain, calm down!"

"This area is already within the dangerous restricted zone..."

"Damn it, the danger level has exceeded the limit! We can't stay here for more than an hour... No, this weird opening might connect directly to the inside... It's possible that this thing is even more dangerous."

"...But, how am I supposed to explain this to her?!" Li Kang's face contorted in pain as he grabbed the bear-headed man beside him, stopped looking at the sinkhole, and painfully jumped down.

The others floating in the sky quickly followed him and jumped down. If it weren't for their deep respect for Li Kang, they would never have... gotten so close to this marked high-risk area!
……

Chu Zhu had expected her to die a clean and swift death, like going bungee jumping again...

but……

"One, two... six, no!"

Chu Zhu had calculated that the mountain was no more than 200 meters high, and based on his past experience, a jump from 200 meters would take about six seconds to hit the ground. But this place… seemed like a distant dream!
"Twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four..."

"Not at the bottom yet?"

This number is almost 800 meters underground! Damn it, this isn't a normal building constructed on land at all. Its main structure is underground!
Suddenly, Chu Zhu's eyelids trembled, and he felt his body shudder, as if he had crossed some forbidden line.

Then, he saw something very strange. The surface of the sinkhole walls was covered with barnacle-like crystalline growths, which shimmered with an eerie, ghostly green glow under the light of the luminous clouds.

The luminous, misty clouds were like something out of a fairy tale, dreamlike and ethereal. They made one feel as if they were in a fairyland... yet at the same time, they instilled a chilling unease in one's spine.

But if there's light below... why is it pitch black when you look down from above?

Chu Zhu suddenly felt a metallic taste in his throat. Was he vomiting blood? Why? He hadn't even hit the ground yet... why was he vomiting blood?
wrong!

His groggy mind jolted awake, and Chu Zhu stared in disbelief at his arm; the muscles were bulging. Beneath them, veins bulged, radiating a powerful, muscular aura…

Not just the arms, but the whole body... every part of the body! They were all expanding wildly.

It's like embarking on a steroid-fueled ascension, with the body undergoing irreversible evolution... But is this really evolution?
With the surge in power, my brain and body ached as if a thousand needles were piercing me.

"Pfft!"

Chu Zhu fell into the water.

Is that water?

probably……

The pain in her body became increasingly pronounced. Chu Zhu's consciousness was already fading...

Faintly, Chu Zhu seemed to hear the sirens blaring in clear, distinct Chinese…

"Warning! Humanoid life form detected falling in. Warning! Gamma rays exceed limits! Gamma rays exceed limits..."
