Chapter 346 End of The World

Zhang Heng learned about the background of this quest from the bald man .

It was just like what he expected of a Lego game . The introduction of the main quest was crude and straightforward, where even kids could understand the bald man’s explanation . In short, in three days, an evil scientist would open a space portal on top of the tallest building in Guangzhou, the Canton Tower . He would then summon a monster capable of destroying Earth . Players from another world (the chosen one) had to prevent the monster from destroying the city . According to Mei Nan, there would be a lot of troublesome side quests, but all these served to complete the final quest .

However, Zhang Heng also noticed that his skills and game items were sealed in this quest, including his physical fitness . His strength and agility had become very different after turning into a Lego man . Zhang Heng initially speculated that the physical fitness of all the players who entered this quest would be standardized, thereby minimizing the advantages and disadvantages caused by those differences .

It meant there was only one crucial skill needed for this quest . “Building skills, you must use your building skills to save the world!” the bald man said with a serious look, before showing Zhang Heng a demonstration . He removed a leg from the couch . When mated to the TV and a nail clipper, he created a Gatling gun .

He then demonstrated how to use towels, soapboxes, and keychains to make grenades .

Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows, “Can these things really work?” “Of course . ” The bald man nodded and placed the grenade in Zhang Heng’s hand . “Be careful; don’t pull the pin . In our world, you can use everything you build . Of course, you will have to learn the quintessence of the things around you . Only a very small number of people can do that . For these people, we generally call them master builders…” He coughed twice, “…and I happen to be a master builder . If you must become my disciple and learn my skills, I can consider it . ”

“Thank you . I shouldn’t have any need to learn building skills for the time being . ”

Zhang Heng opened the door of the house, bowing a little as a gesture of sending the guest off .

The smile on the bald man’s face froze . “Are you confident enough in your building skills?”

“No . ”

“Have other great builders approached you?”

“No . ”

“So… how will you and your companion plan to save the world?”

“I haven’t thought about it . ”

“Huh?”

A question mark appeared on the bald man’s head .

“Good night . ”

Seeing that the bald man had subconsciously walked out the door, Zhang Heng went to close it . He now had a preliminary understanding of the main quest . Just like Mei Nan told him, the main quest of this dungeon seemed to be quite tricky, and the process was complicated . Besides, the final skill that was required of the players didn’t make much sense as well . This so-called building skill was only related to assembling Lego blocks .

In terms of practicality, it was far more inferior to the skills that he learned in the previous quests . Zhang Heng wasn’t too interested in this quest . It was better for him to spend some time exploring this world . He did this for the next two days, visiting the Changlong Wildlife Park, took a night cruise on the Pearl River, and tasted Cantonese breakfast . Although it was all technically Lego blocks, they tasted unexpectedly good . Finally, Mei Nan came to the hotel to find him in the afternoon of the third day .

“You’re done spending time with your family?” “Yes,” Mei Nan took out a bottle of cold mineral water from the refrigerator in the guest room, took two sips, and pointed to the direction of Canton Tower . About an hour ago, a beam of light went straight to the dome, and at the end of the beam, a huge air vortex appeared .

The peculiar phenomenon attracted many curious onlookers . They had taken out their mobile phones, taking pictures, and recording videos . Unbeknownst to them, a catastrophe was just near the corner . Reporters were also rushing into the scene to report this strange event . However, they were not allowed to enter the Canton Tower, where a bunch of heavily armed men wearing black guarded the entrance .

“The space portal has been opened, and the monster should appear in ten minutes . We should leave now . ”

Zhang Heng nodded and put down the unfinished rice noodle roll in his hand .

“If you want to come back again, I can accompany you . ”

“I don’t think I’ll be back here again,” Mei Nan shook her head .

“Why?”

“The key to enter this dungeon is a game item I own . ”

“Block 300501?” Zhang Heng remembered the system notification when he entered the game .

“Yes, but I am not the only one who has the item to enter this world . As far as I know, there are a total of 24 game items that allow the players to play this quest . When you enter this world for the first time, the system will choose your favorite place as the starting place . That’s why I am here . For others, it may be somewhere else . We will play the game separately, and it can be either a single-player game or a multiplayer game The tasks are the same, but there can only be one winner . Once someone completed the game, the game items to enter this world will disappear from the other players . So, this is actually a competition .

“I did try to complete the main quest, but as I said, the difficulty of this quest is very high, and your success rate largely depends on your Lego building skills . But… Well, how should I put it? This skill is useless to most players . It is rare that players would spend their precious time practicing building Lego . I have been training on the skill for a month, but it is still LVO . Of course, there is another way where you can make use of the time flow in the real world to practice the skill . After all, three days here are only equivalent to nine minutes in the real world . ”

“But?”

“Although players can theoretically repeat this game, there is actually a limiter on the key to enter this world . After using it ten times, the key in your hand will become invalid . So, if you count the time need to fight the monster, a player only has 30 days in total . Thirty days is far from enough for you to be good enough to complete the game . Including this time, I have used this key four times . The bad news is that I just got a piece of new information . One of the teams has just recruited a Lego master, and they are very close to clearing the final stage of this dungeon . Therefore, I don’t think I can fully utilize the remaining uses of this game item . ”

Zhang Heng frowned, “You wanted to complete this game because you wanted to use the remaining uses of this key to visit your parents and family . What about other people, why then would they be willing to spend their time and energy on what’s basically a useless skill?”

Mei Nan raised his eyebrows, “Because there is a rumor that there is a grade-B game item hidden in this world . ”
