I will die young?

"Bang!"

The leg bone slammed heavily onto the incomplete head of the Living Dead. The fleshy mass instantly shattered, and a thin wisp of bloody mist emerged from the Living Dead, drilling into Feng Qi's body.

[Weak Living Dead: Feng Qi]

Strength Level: Unranked

Prefix Title: Weak (Body strength reduced by 30%)

Bloodline: Human (Primary)

Bloodline Evolution Points: 13/1000 points

Weak (Upgradeable): Stage 1 (39%)

Prefix Title First Milestone: Kill Living Dead to gain title evolution points and increase evolution percentage.

At this point, Feng Qi had already killed 13 Living Dead consecutively.

He now had answers to his two previous guesses.

Just as he had thought, there was a prerequisite for gaining bloodline evolution points in the strange dream.

For example, if he gained 10 bloodline evolution points in the first dream, then upon entering the dream for the second time, he would first have to kill ten Living Dead. Only the 11th Living Dead would yield new bloodline evolution points.

It was like a milestone; only after passing the previous milestone could he continue to harvest bloodline evolution points.

Continuing eastward, Feng Qi's hunting efficiency gradually increased.

He had mastered the knack for hunting the Living Dead.

The Living Dead didn't have much combat power and lacked the ability to think. They could only sense creatures within about 15 meters of themselves and then initiate an attack.

After roughly grasping the distance, he was never again mobbed by a group of Living Dead.

To ensure safety, he also specifically targeted those Living Dead with incomplete bodies, missing arms or legs.

As his bloodline evolution points increased, Feng Qi also discovered something strange.

Pink granulation tissue was actually growing on the surface of his rotten, incomplete body. Now, every time he gained bloodline evolution points, his body would undergo subtle changes.

If he continued the slaughter, he felt he might be able to become a proper person again in the strange dream.

Advancing along the road covered with dry bones, motionless Living Dead stood scattered ahead, swaying in the wind like scarecrows in a rice field.

Continuing to kill and advance, Feng Qi didn't feel tired from the continuous high-intensity combat. Instead, as his bloodline value increased, he felt full of energy.

"Die for me!"

With a swing, the leg bone struck the head of an incomplete Living Dead, smashing the fleshy tumor inside its head. Immediately, a wisp of bloody mist surged into Feng Qi's body.

After killing and absorbing the bloody mist this time, he found that his body had undergone a noticeable change, more intense than the previous times.

Summoning the attribute panel, it had indeed changed.

[Normal Living Dead: Feng Qi]

Strength Level: Unranked

Prefix Title: Normal (No increase or decrease effect title)

Bloodline: Human (Primary)

Bloodline Evolution Points: 34/1000 points

Prefix Title Milestone:

Normal (Upgradeable): Stage 2 (1%)

Prefix Title Second Milestone: Kill Living Dead to gain title evolution points and increase evolution percentage.

The information on the attribute panel made Feng Qi realize that the change in his prefix title could directly affect his physical condition.

Previously, his prefix title was "Weak," so he always felt a sense of weakness lingering in his heart. Now that the prefix title had upgraded to "Normal," the feeling of weakness was completely gone, as if he had shed shackles.

Trying to jump and clench his fists, he familiarized himself with his strengthened body, preparing to continue hunting the Living Dead.

Just then, a line of text suddenly appeared in his mind.

You turn your head to the 3 o'clock direction and find the black stone monument standing in the distance to be very strange, so you decide to go forward and investigate!

Feng Qi: ...

Following the narrator's prompt, he turned his head to the 3 o'clock direction and found a two-meter-tall black stone monument standing beside a locust tree dozens of meters away.

Stepping up to the stone monument, he examined it carefully.

The stone monument was weathered, with obvious signs of erosion from the passage of time. The text on the monument was also blurred, but Feng Qi could still roughly make out what was written on it.

[Star City Shelter]

Wait, Star City?

Seeing the text marked on the stone monument, Feng Qi couldn't help but be stunned.

This is because Star City is the city he is in reality, but there is no shelter built within the city.

Although the real world, which is gradually being eroded by the domains, is dangerous, the nearest domain field to Star City is 500 kilometers away. Therefore, Star City is far from being in danger of being covered by domains and is considered a safe zone, so there is no need to build any shelters.

Feng Qi, feeling puzzled, carefully examined the stone tablet, trying to find an answer.

[You found a blood groove at the bottom of the stone tablet, which seems to be for testing by dripping blood. So you bit your finger and dripped your blood into the blood groove.]

"Why should I listen to you? You tell me to bite my finger and I bite my finger?"

[Then... how about you try biting your toe?]

Feng Qi: ...

In the end, he still listened to the narration and bit his almost rotten right finger. Along with a foul smell, black blood flowed down and dripped into the blood groove under the stone tablet.

After a short wait, a mechanical synthesized voice suddenly came from inside the black stone tablet.

"Bloodline detected... Human... Permission granted to enter Star City Shelter!"

The black stone tablet slowly moved away, revealing a passage. Under the moonlight, the metal passage could be seen covered in rust, as if it hadn't been used for a long time.

With curiosity, Feng Qi stepped into the passage. Immediately, the lights ahead flickered. The light tubes embedded in the top of the metal passage lit up one by one, illuminating the way forward.

The passage was about a hundred meters long and sloped downwards. After reaching the end, the view suddenly opened up.

What appeared before him was an underground square filled with various mechanical instruments. Around the underground square were iron doors, all tightly shut at the moment.

[You found a huge instrument placed in the center of the underground shelter, so you decided to go and check it out!]

"Alright, alright, I'll do whatever you say!"

[In that case... please cut off your little brother.]

Feng Qi: ...

If he could see the narration, he would definitely roll up his sleeves and fight it.

The huge instrument in the center of the underground square was shaped like a brain, with a control panel in front of it. In front of the control panel was a large display screen, which was covered in dust at the moment.

Coming to the control panel, Feng Qi's eyes were drawn to the red "Start" button on the control panel.

[That's right, that's the button. You pressed it without hesitation!]

Reaching out and pressing the start button, the machine trembled, the dusty screen lit up, and multiple options appeared.

[Star City Historical Database]

[Domain Creature Database (Real-time Update)]

[External Situation Probe]

[Shelter Remaining Supplies Status]

[Shelter Resident Health Status]

[Cultivation Technique Information]

[Spell Information]

While browsing the directory, Feng Qi's eyes suddenly stopped at the time in the upper right corner of the screen.

[Today's Date: March 28, 3528]

Feng Qi: ...

The date in the real world was 2023, but the date on the shelter was actually 3528, a difference of over 1500 years from the real time.

At this moment, a terrifying guess emerged in his mind.

He had traveled through time in his dream and arrived in the future!

To verify this conjecture, he turned his gaze to the screen, trying to compare the data in the database with reality to find an answer.

There was a search area in the database. Feng Qi thought for a moment and entered his name.

In less than a moment, detailed information popped up on the screen.

[Feng Qi (Galaxy Research Institute - D-level Researcher)]:

Age at Death: 27

Cause of Death: An accident occurred while creating a new cultivation technique, resulting in spiritual energy backflow and severed meridians, followed by bleeding from seven orifices and fainting. He died after unsuccessful rescue efforts.

Date of Death: June 1, 2032.

Lifetime Achievements (Honors): Researcher at Galaxy Research Institute, D-level Human Elite Medal, Outstanding Graduate of Star City Middle School, B-level Cultivation Technique Assistant Researcher...

Evaluation: A very promising cultivation technique researcher, rated as a B-level potential researcher by the Galaxy Research Institute. However, due to his unyielding personality, he made a major mistake in the research of a new cultivation technique, leading to his unfortunate demise at the age of 27.

Above the text introduction, there was also a photo. The man in the photo looked very similar to him, but appeared much more mature, with determination in his eyes.

Looking at the photo and the text introduction, Feng Qi was dumbfounded.

The "Galaxy Research Institute" mentioned in the introduction was one of the research institutes in the Galaxy Academy that he was preparing to apply for, and it was also his future dream.

The credibility of this information quickly rose in his mind.

"So... I'm going to die young?"

"I don't believe it!"

[I don't believe it either!]

The narration jumped out at the right time to give Feng Qi encouragement.
