The game is only half finished, and the entire internet is begging for an update!

At this moment, Chi Cheng had no mind to look closely at the reward illustration given by the five-star Easter egg.

The interdimensional portal composed of purple-gold magic runes in front of us has stabilized. On the other side of the portal, we can vaguely see neon lights, streets, and a row of buildings that are completely different from those in Zhongnan Mountain.

"Brothers, the door to a new world has opened! Let's get in!"

Chi Cheng was somewhat impatient, putting everything else aside.

Xiao west is still waiting for rescue on the other side, and she has an absolute feel for cars!

The mere mention of the word "guan" was enough to make Chi Cheng's eyes light up.

He turned to Qingfeng and Lin Xia, and waved his hand dismissively: "Senior Brother! Lin Xia! Get in the car! The first cross-world rescue operation of the Magic Fairy Castle has officially begun!"

Qingfeng stared at the portal that was constantly distorting space, clearly taking a second look, before finally nodding calmly: "There are worlds beyond worlds, that's quite interesting."

Lin Xia's situation was much simpler.

"Um."

Chi Cheng: "..."

One of you is too calm, and the other is too lazy to even speak.

It makes me, the team's head coach, seem like I've never seen the world before!

A few minutes later, the three vehicles from Magic Castle were ready again.

Chi Cheng's own race car had just been totaled in a collision with a dump truck, and he had spent a lot of money to repair it. He was from a poor family and couldn't afford to be stingy when he was going to travel.

As the first car passed through the purple-gold light curtain, the entire field of vision was instantly stretched into distorted beams of light.

A dizzying, weightless sensation washed over me.

Chi Cheng felt a blur before his eyes. One second he could still see the stone walls of Zhongnan Mountain, and the next second, the piercing sound of horns and the noise of the city simultaneously filled his ears.

"Holy crap..."

The group got off the bus and found themselves on a completely unfamiliar city street.

Skyscrapers, neon lights, and countless GG signs.

The roadside is crowded with various shops, and in the distance you can see a row of Chinatown buildings with red lanterns hanging on them. On both sides of the street, there are red lanterns and huge neon signs with traditional Chinese characters.

[New world node unlocked!]

Current location: Chinatown, San Francisco

Chi Cheng took a deep breath and looked around.

The familiar slopes and the exotic yet welcoming Chinatown architecture perfectly replicated my childhood memories in reality.

At the end of the street, in the distance, one can vaguely see a row of heavily guarded, yet discreetly disguised factory buildings.

The towering barbed wire fence and the infrared scanners that flashed by from time to time all pointed to its identity: the outskirts of District 13!

What made Chi Cheng's heart race even faster was that, less than two hundred meters ahead at the corner of the intersection, stood a shop with a somewhat old facade.

Above the shop hangs a wooden plaque with several large, flamboyant characters written on it:

Old Man's Antique Shop

"Found it! This is it!"

Chi Cheng rubbed his hands together excitedly and led the two of them quickly over.

As Senior Brother Qingfeng walked, he looked around, finally fixing his gaze on the outskirts of District Thirteen, and thoughtfully stroked his chin.

"Manager, the feng shui of this place is extremely strange. On the surface, it looks prosperous, but underground there is a huge evil energy hidden, which seems to imprison many unspeakable demons. The people who live here are probably living in misery every day."

"Senior Brother has a good eye. Those down there are the Eight Great Demons and all sorts of gang leaders. It would be a miracle if the feng shui there was any good."

Chi Cheng gave a casual reply and helped Lin Xia pull her hood down even lower.

The California sun was indeed scorching; Lin Xia wished she could disappear into the ground.

"jingle……"

Pushing open the slightly heavy wooden door of the antique shop, the clear sound of a brass bell echoed inside.

The room was dimly lit, with huge bookshelves reaching the ceiling on both sides, piled high with all sorts of dusty ancient books, strange statues, shriveled geckos, and even a pile of bones from an unknown creature.

"Welcome to Old Man's Antique Shop! Are you looking to buy an antique or a talisman?"

A clear, energetic, and even slightly quirky voice came from the top of the tall bookshelf.

Chi Cheng looked up.

A boy, about ten years old, wearing an orange T-shirt and with neat short hair, was standing on it. Then, the boy slid down the ladder of the bookshelf.

It landed steadily and smoothly in front of them.

This person is Xiao west, whom we saw in the distress video earlier!

"You must be Konishi?"

Chi Cheng quickly put on a kind and friendly smile.

"We're from the Magic Fairy Castle car team! We received your interdimensional SOS signal and specially drove our dump trucks... oops, I mean, we specially crossed the multiverse to support you!"

Xiaoxi's big eyes lit up instantly, as if she had seen a savior, and she grabbed Chi Cheng's hand.

"You really came! That's great! I knew that signal transmitter made from Dad's dried pufferfish and a broken radio would work!"

Chi Cheng's lips twitched. What kind of nonsense is this? This combination of magic and technology is too abstract.

"Don't get agitated, tell me slowly, what exactly happened?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xi's face immediately fell. She sighed heavily, put her hands behind her back like a little adult, and began to pour out her grievances.

"Don't even mention it! Xiaoyu and I formed a racing team called Old Man's Antique Car Shop. Uncle Long is the main driver, and Old Man is in charge of enchanting the cars with magic. We had already worked so hard to qualify for the official race of the highest level local competition... the Twelve Charms Grand Prix!"

"This is the biggest race in the entire San Francisco area! Each stage you complete offers a chance to obtain top-tier racing enchantments related to the legendary twelve runes!"

Chi Cheng's eyes widened in disbelief. Enchantments related to the twelve talismans?!

How powerful must that be?

Xiao west, this place is definitely a higher-dimensional world! If we could take this back to Zhongnan Mountain, wouldn't we reduce those NPC caravans to dust in a dimensional war?

"Then go and compete! What are you begging for help for?" Chi Cheng asked urgently.

"I can't go!"

Xiao west, with a pained expression, spread her hands.

"Just a few nights ago, Dad insisted that he sensed the awakening of an ancient demon, so he took Uncle Long, Jade, and Tru and went straight into a magic circle that leads to some unknown other world for an archaeological expedition! Before leaving, Dad left with the words: 'One more thing, keep an eye on the shop door,' and then he disappeared!"

"Now look what's happened! I'm the only one left looking after Dad's antique car shop!"

As Xiaoxi finished speaking, she directly took down a somewhat damaged event invitation from the wall.

"The rules of the Twelve Charms Grand Prix are extremely rigid, requiring participating teams to have at least three official drivers rotating in. If I'm unable to assemble a new team roster to register for the race, my participation will be permanently disqualified!"

Xiaoxi became increasingly aggrieved as she spoke:

"Those shadowy figures are deliberately causing trouble. They know Uncle Long isn't here, and they've been loitering around the shop every day, trying to stop me from finding new teammates!"
