Dual Worlds: I Have a Doomsday World

With the Tier Three Monster dead, nothing here could threaten Lin Qi any longer.

But Lin Qi didn’t rush to leave the Mecha; instead, he first checked on Wei Yue’s condition.

His Spiritual Vision spread out, covering an 800-meter radius where the Spiritual Particles were exhibiting a strange state.

Their activity seemed to have increased, but this was fundamentally different from the state they were in during Lin Qi’s Meditation.

Lin Qi also noticed that Wei Yue’s Spiritual Power was in a state of extreme activity, but it didn’t seem to be an aftereffect of the Tier Three Monster’s attack.

Instead, the words Wei Yue was muttering to herself were more telling; every now and then, she would mention terms like "Extraordinary," "Descent Object," and "Blood Moon Envoy."

’She must have heard those so-called whispers.’

In other words, Wei Yue was receiving new knowledge from the Extraordinary Side.

This was a good thing for Lin Qi; Wei Yue obtaining knowledge from the Extraordinary Side was almost equivalent to him obtaining it himself.

It seemed Wei Yue wouldn’t be waking up anytime soon, so Lin Qi opened the M-Class Mecha’s cockpit, stepped out, and walked over to the grievously wounded Moon Worshiper.

This Moon Worshiper was a middle-aged man, and he was staring at Lin Qi with a look of disbelief.

He seemed to have forgotten the pain from his mangled flesh and blood.

He muttered under his breath, "How is this possible? How could it be... a Blood Moon Envoy..."

"You took my Trait? I clearly... I detonated all the Blood Moon Descent Objects. That should have been enough to create an incomplete Trait..."

When the middle-aged man saw Lin Qi emerge from the M-Class Mecha, his expression turned to one of utter despair.

’Detonated all the Blood Moon Descent Objects?’

Hearing this, Lin Qi immediately used his Spiritual Vision to observe the area.

’While checking on Wei Yue’s condition, I neglected to check on the Blood Moon Descent Objects.’

Looking again, he saw that all the Blood Moon Descent Objects had shattered.

After shattering, they hadn’t even formed into Extraordinary Materials; it was as if they had been completely incinerated.

"What is an incomplete Trait? Tell me the truth."

Lin Qi asked the question tentatively. Based on his experience in Modu, Moon Worshipers couldn’t resist a Wizard’s command.

This was especially true for the first-generation Moon Worshipers, over whom a Wizard’s Spiritual Power exerted an oppressive force, as if from a higher order of being.

The middle-aged man’s lips trembled. He seemed to want to resist Lin Qi but was crushed by the pure suppression of the Wizard’s Spiritual Power.

This, however, made Lin Qi a bit wary.

’From the looks of it, a Wizard’s suppression over first-generation Moon Worshipers isn’t absolute. If their Extraordinary Level increases, they can still gain the Ability to resist.’

But the resistance seemed limited. After a moment of trembling, the middle-aged man still spilled the truth.

"An incomplete Trait can’t make me a Blood Moon Envoy, but it would have granted me a portion of a Blood Moon Envoy’s power. I could have even used that power to break through to Tier Three."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man’s eyes filled with profound bitterness.

’If it had been the authorities who’d stopped him, he could have accepted it.’

’But why, of all people, did the one who stopped him have to be a Blood Moon Envoy?’

’Why would this Blood Moon Envoy stop other Moon Worshipers from acquiring a Trait?’

’Could it be that he wants to be the one and only Blood Moon Envoy under the Blood Moon?’

’Has he betrayed the Blood Moon?’

Countless thoughts raced through his mind, giving rise to all sorts of theories.

These myriad thoughts finally coalesced into a single plea: "Lord Blood Moon Envoy, spare my life! I’ll be your slave, I’ll do anything to repay your great mercy."

The middle-aged man was certain Lin Qi would kill him; he would definitely not go easy on him just because he was also a Moon Worshiper.

After all, Lin Qi had killed his way here, and every single Moon Worshiper had died by his hand.

Lin Qi looked at the middle-aged man, his brow furrowed slightly.

According to his original plan, before coming to Shuining City, Lin Qi had indeed considered capturing another first-generation Moon Worshiper.

’Whether in the Cyber World or the Doomsday World, knowledge from the Extraordinary Side is hard to come by.’

’Currently, my only stable source for it is the first-generation Moon Worshipers.’

But after arriving in Shuining City, Lin Qi started to have second thoughts.

’This group of first-generation Moon Worshipers in Shuining City has long since lost their humanity. Keeping one alive would just feel wrong.’

’More importantly, a Tier Two Moon Worshiper has the Ability to resist my commands. Keeping one alive isn’t safe.’

’A Tier Three Extraordinary Item and the First-Class Merit Ding Yang promised me... I’ve already gained more than enough. There’s no need to take any more risks.’

Having made up his mind, Lin Qi no longer hesitated.

There was nothing else to ask about the situation in Shuining City. The specific details could be left for the authorities to investigate.

With a mere thought, the blood flowing across the refinery floor converged at Lin Qi’s side, forming a crimson blade.

The middle-aged man’s eyes instantly filled with utter despair and terror.

He wanted to run!

But the moment he sensed Lin Qi’s Spiritual Power—the power of a Wizard—he was paralyzed, forced to watch helplessly as the crimson blade plunged into his chest.

He was utterly powerless to resist, unable to even use his own Abilities as a Moon Worshiper.

His heart burst, and his life force drained away.

Suddenly, Lin Qi remembered something.

’I forgot to ask about the Abilities of a Tier Two Moon Worshiper.’

’To survive in the Doomsday World, I’ll most likely have to deal with Moon Worshipers again in the future.’

’Understanding the Moon Worshipers’ Abilities would be key to reducing casualties at the Mo University Camp.’

With his heart damaged and his Spiritual Power failing, the middle-aged man could no longer resist the intrusion of Lin Qi’s own Spiritual Power.

Locking onto the middle-aged man’s heart with his Spiritual Vision, Lin Qi casually cast Rapid Growth.

At the same time, he used his Blood Manipulation Ability to force the blood that had gushed from the ruptured heart back into the blood vessels.
