Chapter 239: Chapter 161: Heading to Mars Base (Two in One, Subscribe Requested)_2

Qin Shou glanced around at everyone and nodded with a smile, "Not bad everyone, have we found out the specifics of this assessment yet?"

Wang Sheng replied, "Brother Qin, I’ve already found out about this. I hear that this year’s assessment will be held at the Mars Base."

"Mars Base, we’ve never been there before."

"Yeah, I wonder if we’ll see any Martians."

"Martians? Are there such things on Mars?"

"Uh... sorry, just watched a sci-fi movie yesterday and got mixed up..."

The group discussed amongst themselves.

Qin Shou stroked his chin and asked, "What’s involved in the assessment?"

Wang Sheng shook his head, "The specific contents of the assessment are still unclear, but Mr. Su will be leading the team to Mars, so we can ask him then."

"Oh, by the way, I heard that if you pass the assessment, you can receive twenty pounds of Cosmic Meteorite Gold from Mr. Su."

"Cosmic Meteorite Gold?"

Qin Shou’s eyes lit up; even though it’s only twenty pounds, it’s better than nothing.

Students from the Beast Cultivation Main City can use the Cosmic Meteorite Gold to create battle armor or arm their beasts.

...

Early the next day, everyone gathered at the giant plaza.

Su Liang stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Qin Shou and the others.

"The importance of this year-end assessment should be very clear to you. Those who fail will be forced to drop out. I hope you all give it your all."

"Yes!"

Everyone shouted loudly, their expressions filled with confidence.

Before coming to the Beast Cultivation Main City, they were all standouts among their peers in their respective cities.

Even though there are many excellent peers here, they are still very confident about their first assessment.

They don’t believe that a mere first-year year-end assessment could be that difficult.

Seeing the confidence on everyone’s faces, Su Liang shook his head slightly.

I knew it was pointless to say these words; they wouldn’t take it to heart.

Even if they did, they would forget about it later.

Even if they don’t forget, they might not give it their all from the beginning.

And even if they give it their all, they might not necessarily pass the assessment.

Even if...

Su Liang raised his communicator, and the giant plaza trembled as a silver disc-shaped spaceship with a diameter of over three hundred meters slowly rose from the center.

Invisible waves spread out, and a mysterious aura filled the air.

Seeing this magnificent spaceship, everyone exclaimed in surprise, their eyes full of curiosity.

"Is this a spaceship?"

"I didn’t expect the Beast Cultivation Main City to have such things."

"Yeah, it looks really cool..."

As everyone discussed, the mechanical hatch at the bottom of the spaceship opened wide.

Su Liang waved his hand, "Alright, stop looking and let’s set off."

Everyone responded at once, darting into the high-tech interior of the spaceship.

Qin Shou walked at the back and couldn’t help asking Leng Wanbai beside him.

"Xiao Bai, why aren’t we using the transmission array to get to the Mars Base?"

Leng Wanbai explained, "Our human teleportation technology is still not mature yet. It’s fine for planet-wide teleportation, but for interplanetary teleportation, the chances of accidents are high."

"Then how long will it take to get to Mars?"

"Hmm, if we’re fast, it should be about ten days!"

Qin Shou nodded; compared to the Old Era’s flight speeds, reaching Mars in ten days was unimaginable.

This disc-shaped spaceship resembles the ships of the Kid Star People quite a bit.

No need to say, it’s definitely not something developed by Earth humans ourselves.

More likely, this ship is the spoils from defeating the Kid Star People back in the day.

Once inside, everyone excitedly toured the spaceship’s array of technological equipment.

Beside him, Xu Xin noticed Qin Shou’s lack of interest and asked, "Brother Qin, it seems like you’re not interested in these things."

Qin Shou waved his hand, "I have a spaceship too. I’ll take you guys on a space tour someday."

Xu Xin’s cheeks twitched, "Will you die if you don’t brag?"

Following Su Liang to the control room, the spaceship’s hatch closed.

"Buzz..."

The disc-shaped spaceship started, and everyone felt a momentary weightlessness before returning to normal.

Through the control room’s virtual interface, everyone could see the view outside the spaceship.

In just a few seconds, the spaceship had already risen ten thousand meters into the air.

Before long, the spaceship passed through three layers of white clouds, sped upward, and after entering the Earth’s last outer atmospheric layer, soon reached outer space.

On the virtual interface, the majestic water-blue planet appeared before everyone.

Suddenly, Qin Shou moved forward to slide the virtual interface, discovering a "black spot" approximately in the Southern Hemisphere, around Oceania.

"Mr. Su, what’s that?" Qin Shou asked curiously.

Su Liang, with a black face showing no emotions, replied, "That’s the Australian Continent. It looks like this because it’s been occupied by Cosmic Monster King Ghidorah, shrouded in thundercloud storms all year round. Besides Ghidorah, there’s no other life."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

"What? An entire continent is occupied by Ghidorah?"

"So Cosmic Monster King Ghidorah is on the Australian Continent, and we humans haven’t eliminated it?"

"Wait, wasn’t King Ghidorah wiped out by the King of Monsters Godzilla during the Old Era?"

"What’s really going on?"

"Mr. Su, could you tell us more?"

Su Liang glanced at everyone and said, "You’re right, the initial Cosmic Monster King Ghidorah was indeed defeated by Godzilla.

The Ghidorah occupying the Australian Continent came from deep space several decades ago, and it’s not the same Ghidorah."

"Really? How come we didn’t know anything about this?"

"Yeah, if this Ghidorah can occupy the Australian Continent, just how terrifying is its strength..."

Amid the crowd’s shock, Su Liang’s expression turned grave as he added, "This Ghidorah on the Australian Continent is not just one, but a group!

Although they haven’t made any moves since occupying the continent, nobody knows when they might attack Earth’s creatures.

The lack of news is just to maintain public calm."

Hearing this, everyone was in disbelief.

"A group? How is that possible..."

"One almost destroyed the Old Era, a group would be catastrophic!"

"Turns out our human situation is this perilous—we still thought humanity had reclaimed the top of the food chain."

"Yeah..."

In front of the virtual screen, Qin Shou raised an eyebrow.

A group of Ghidorah, I’ll have to check it out someday.

...

The disc-shaped spaceship continued its voyage in space.

Su Liang arranged rooms for everyone and stayed on guard in the control room.

In the ten days’ journey, anything could happen in space, so he had to keep an eye on the surroundings.

With an Unbreakable Realm body, not resting for ten days didn’t affect him much.

Qin Shou, with nothing to do, stayed by Su Liang’s side, enjoying the starry scenery.

"Beep beep... approaching meteorite swarm detected, estimated collision with spaceship in ten minutes..."

At this moment, an alarm sounded, and Su Liang was somewhat surprised but calmly prepared the spaceship’s onboard destructive energy beams.

"Mr. Su, is encountering a meteorite swarm in space common?" Qin Shou asked abruptly.

Su Liang shook his head, "Not common. This is the first time I’ve encountered this in all these years."

Instantly, Qin Shou fell silent.

He still remembered when he first went out of the city to hunt monsters, not only encountering various powerful monsters but also coincidentally facing a Skeleton Giant Lizard rampage.

Running to the Old Era Ruins to hide, he coincidentally encountered a human nemesis, the Spine-eating Gu, and also discovered monsters like the Manda Dragon Beast and the Super Soaring Dragon.

On the surface, it seemed Lin Xiaomei and others were a burden to Qin Shou.

But only Qin Shou knew that perhaps Lin Xiaomei and the others were "dragged down" by him.

Others went out of the city many times without issue, but as soon as he went out with them, they immediately encountered such dangers.

Back then, he suspected that he might have a "Conan constitution."

And the series of events that followed further confirmed the oddity about himself.

During the Dragon Island trial, he discovered cosmic creature metal; although he didn’t alert the terrifying presence in Mechanical Ruins City, if he stayed a few more days in Mechanical City, that thing might have shown up.

Meanwhile, Fang Bao and Lin Xiaomei, who acted separately from Qin Shou, successfully obtained their quota without any incidents.

Subsequently, on the first mission for the Beast Cultivation Main City, where he planned to quietly get rich, he inexplicably crashed into the territory of the Heavenly Eye Divine Race.

And now, the meteorite swarm that Big Black Face Su Liang had never encountered, was about to hit the spaceship.

He had a premonition that maybe when they got to Mars, something "unexpected" might happen again.

It’s all uncertain.

However, even if it is unexpected, it should be a beautiful surprise.

Considering all these experiences, he hadn’t really suffered any losses but had become increasingly "wealthy."

Thinking about it even got him a bit excited!
