Survival in the apocalypse: I exploited a bug in an infinite dungeon.

The three questions were posed by Shi Jinwei in connection with the bizarre world.

Professor Yuan was taken aback by the question.

He took Shi Jinwei to his office and asked her why she had such thoughts.

Shi Jinwei said that Sui Yuxi's materialization of superpowers inspired her.

Professor Yuan once said that the physical form of spiritual power is fixed the moment it appears.

For example, Sui Yuxi's giant tortoise.

Her mental strength is still recovering, and for now she can only materialize a mini turtle.

It's impossible to change her into something else.

However, Shi Jinwei discovered that her spiritual power could materialize as "the will of the mind."

Besides being able to transform into a "little hat," it can also transform into other forms she imagines.

For example, clouded leopards, the Four Idiots, and other things she could think of.

The clouded leopard and the four fools, or the imaginary weapons, can also attack.

She felt that either Professor Yuan's research was inadequate, or she herself was becoming abnormal... but she didn't say any of this out loud.

Looking into Shi Jinwei's eyes, Professor Yuan paused for a moment before saying, "I cannot answer your third question for the time being, but I can answer the first two questions in essence."

Seeing the girl's "I knew it" expression, he immediately added, "That sounds great, but it's actually incredibly difficult for people with superpowers."

Putting everything else aside, just considering 3S-level mental strength alone is an extremely high threshold.

Of the five submarines, there are now 978 people with superpowers remaining, and only five experimental subjects and Shi Jinwei have reached the 3S level of mental strength.

Excluding the experimental subjects, the ratio is 995:1.

As for materialization, it took five people with superpowers five years to achieve it.

Shi Jinwei spent almost 70 days, and that was through the hidden speed-up and life-or-death moments in the game to "break through".

For others, this time will be extended indefinitely.

All things considered, this is a very demanding condition.

Shi Jinwei didn't feel anything because of the illusion given to her by the five test subjects—that 3S-level superhumans were as common as cabbages.

……

Upon hearing Professor Yuan's explanation, Shi Jinwei fell silent again.

She originally thought that if this line of thinking worked, perhaps there would be a reasonable explanation for why ordinary people in the supernatural world could see the bizarre.

But that's not the case now.

After leaving Professor Yuan's room and returning to her own, she found Cheng Wenwen waiting for her at the door.

The two have grown much closer over the days they've spent together.

The video recording function of the wristband now also includes "mystery detection".

So in the videos that everyone brought back, you could see something eerie.

Remembering Cheng Wenwen's instructions, Shi Jinwei took some time after returning home to send her the video.

Cheng Wenwen came to see her about the video.

Her first words made Shi Jinwei frown.

She said, "Xiaowei, I've seen these strange things in my brother's diary."

Shi Jinwei welcomed the person into the room and asked her what was going on.

She knew that the girl had gone to sea to find her brother, who was among the group of superhumans who had gone to sea six years ago.

Why did they bring up the diary again?

Cheng Wenwen gave a smile that looked more like a grimace: "I don't know either."

The once-handsome young lady now looks much more haggard.

Without Shi Jinwei needing to ask any further questions, she took out a diary: "Take a look for yourself."

Shi Jinwei took it and casually turned to a page.

Inside, there was a key-shaped bookmark tucked inside, and below the bookmark was a sketch of a portrait.

Although it is black and white, the lines are very simple.

However, the painter's skills were excellent, and he brought the things in the painting to life.

It was immediately obvious to anyone that it was the strange thing they had encountered yesterday.

Below the painting is a date, which is seven years ago.

Shi Jinwei flipped through it briefly and found that the entire contents of the diary were portraits.

Each portrait depicts a sea creature they encountered over the past two months.

This includes orcas and the mutated fish similar to Leeds fish that we encountered a few days ago.

"As you know, my family's bar chain has branches in An'ya City, Anxin City, Anhai Anbo, and other safe cities. To prevent us from being narrow-minded, my children have been living in different cities since they were young, so that they can better understand the city and make it easier for them to inherit the family business when they grow up."

"I can say without shame that my child's knowledge is in no way inferior to that of the children of high-ranking officials. Therefore, I wasn't surprised when I first saw this diary. I carried it with me only as a keepsake. Until this voyage..."

Cheng Wenwen couldn't continue after saying this.

The only words in this diary are about the time spent drawing.

There are more than thirty pictures from the first page to the last page, with dates spaced about a week apart.

Some of the portraits, seven or eight in total, were painted in a single day.

Neither of them believed it was a coincidence, but how could they explain the diary?

If it's part of the game's design, why make such an arrangement?

"Is this painting... the one about the lost mainland?" Shi Jinwei asked Cheng Wenwen, pointing to the contents of the last page.

The painting depicted a vast continent, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring in the sky, and something indistinct seemingly hidden in the dark clouds.

As for why she didn't suspect it was the seaside near Anya City, it was simply because Shi Jinwei had never seen any of the plants there before.

Cheng Wenwen looked down and examined it carefully: "I don't know, but I've never seen any of the plants here before. Look here, there's also a thing that looks like a dinosaur."

She pointed to the far right of the picture, where a dinosaur head could be seen behind the dense foliage.

Cheng Wenwen explained, "Judging from the head and body shape, it looks a lot like Giganotosaurus."

Shi Jinwei looked at her hesitantly: "These kinds of dinosaurs went extinct during the Cynomanian era, right?"

Because of the appearance of the orca, she has recently been brushing up on her dinosaur knowledge through her bracelet.

Before setting sail, everyone's bracelets were filled with a wealth of knowledge, including the contents of almost all books currently in use by humankind.

Therefore, the capacity of their wristbands has been increased.

While there is much less relevant data from the Cretaceous period compared to the pre-Cretaceous period, there is still a significant amount available.

For a complete novice like Shi Jinwei, this was an abundance of information.

"I guess... no, it should be that all the dinosaurs went extinct, right?"

Looking at these paintings, Cheng Wenwen thought of the orca, but she was no longer sure.

If the Lost Continent was the United Nations before the apocalypse, how could dinosaurs have appeared?

This... Species mutation and anti-archaism don't make sense either.

"Are you sure these were all drawn by your cousin?" Shi Jinwei asked Cheng Wenwen.

Cheng Wenwen nodded: "Yes, my brother is very capable. My dad said he was the most outstanding child of our generation, but he suddenly disappeared one day. We searched for a long time before we found out that he had participated in a 'Joint Mission'. Later, we started to secretly investigate this mission and found out that it was different from what we had imagined."

"How so?" Her choice of words piqued Shi Jinwei's curiosity.
