Murong Xuan advanced to the Enhancement Master sequence, and the Hope Convoy discussed how to use her new skill and hunt Weirds to gather the crystals it required. Ximen Chuixue agreed to join the convoy, but Niu Dagang suddenly cried out in pain just as they finished making plans.

• Luo Fan asked Murong Xuan about her advancement, and she explained that her Enhancement skill used Weird Crystals to strengthen Uncanny Artifacts.
• Murong Xuan described the rising crystal costs and the risks of failure as enhancements accumulated, prompting the convoy to consider which artifacts to improve.
• Luo Fan proposed hunting first-tier Weirds and weaker second-tier Weirds, and the convoy set rules for distributing spoils and paying for Murong Xuan's services.
• Zhao Chunfeng asked Ximen Chuixue about his plans, and Ximen Chuixue agreed to fight second-tier Weirds for a share based on his contribution.
• Niu Dagang suddenly clutched his head and cried out in pain.

Niu Dagang developed horns and worsening signs of turning into a Weird, so Luo Fan promised to kill him if he lost control and sought help from Master Wen Hao. An Xiaoran woke up and, instead of accepting milk from Luo Fan, walked toward Niu Dagang.

• Niu Dagang's skin, eyes, and mind changed as horns grew from his forehead, and he asked Luo Fan to kill him if he became a Weird.
• Luo Fan promised Niu Dagang, then posted on the Sequence User Forum asking how to reverse his condition.
• Master Wen Hao assessed Niu Dagang's affliction as a difficult dying curse and said the Aerospace Base's countering artifact had been lost, but he would consult other bases.
• Lin Feifei's controlled Weird corpses defended the Hope Convoy while Luo Fan waited for news and considered getting more vehicles.
• An Xiaoran woke up, said she felt all right, and walked barefoot toward Niu Dagang instead of taking the milk Luo Fan offered.

After waking, An Xiaoran used her new Holy Light Dispel skill to cure Niu Dagang, while the Hope Convoy recovered and hunted Weirds over the following days. With their supplies and Weird Crystals replenished, Luo Fan had Murong Xuan begin enhancing his Uncanny Artifacts.

• An Xiaoran used Holy Light Dispel to restore Niu Dagang's body to normal, then collapsed from exhaustion as Luo Fan caught her.
• An Xiaoran revealed that she had reached Level 16 and that Holy Light Dispel could remove curses and other abnormal conditions.
• Luo Fan told Han Shanzhong to watch the forum for ways to regenerate his lost arm, and Master Wen Hao messaged that Blessing Type skills might counter curses.
• Over the next two or three days, the Hope Convoy hunted more than fifty First-Tier Weirds and three Second-Tier Weirds, found three vehicles, and gathered Weird Crystals.
• Luo Fan counted forty-three First-Order Weird Crystals and seven Second-Order Weird Crystals, then asked Murong Xuan to enhance his Twin-Eye Bow to +6.

Luo Fan had Murong Xuan enhance his Twin-Eye Bow to +6, raising its attack power while reducing its blindness side effect, and then had her enhance An Xiaoran’s Amplification Tome. The Hope Convoy’s Sequence Users enhanced their Uncanny Artifacts, and Luo Fan changed the subject when Ximen Chuixue began listing his equipment.

• Murong Xuan used thirty-three First-Order Weird Crystals to enhance Luo Fan’s Twin-Eye Bow to +6, succeeding after two failed attempts.
• Luo Fan paid to appraise the bow and learned it scored 98, had greatly increased attack power, and caused one minute of blindness for every three arrows fired.
• Luo Fan tested the bow by shattering a millstone-sized rock with an Armor-Piercing Arrow and decided to use it at medium-to-close range.
• Luo Fan had Murong Xuan enhance An Xiaoran’s Amplification Tome to +3 and paid her for both enhancements.
• Niu Dagang, Han Shanzhong, Lin Feifei, and Murong Xuan enhanced their own Uncanny Artifacts, while Zhao Chunfeng did not have any eligible equipment.
• Ximen Chuixue listed his Second Tier Uncanny Artifacts, so Luo Fan interrupted him and asked Han Shanzhong about advancing to a second-tier sequence.

Luo Fan and An Xiaoran left the Hope Convoy to avoid drawing a powerful female weird to the group, heading southwest after Zhao Chunfeng’s divinations. Less than two hours into the drive, Luo Fan received a message from Jiang Shengnan and abruptly stopped the bus.

• Han Shanzhong explained that his advancement required killing an unknown target about fifty kilometers away, and Luo Fan said he could not join because of the danger threatening An Xiaoran.
• Luo Fan told the convoy about the female weird who had spared them and predicted she would return when An Xiaoran recovered; Zhao Chunfeng divined that Luo Fan and An Xiaoran would turn misfortune into good fortune.
• Luo Fan and An Xiaoran prepared to leave, and Murong Xuan gave Luo Fan a bundle of underwear before he set out.
• Zhao Chunfeng divined that the southwest was the best direction, so Luo Fan drove there with An Xiaoran and Xiao Hei.
• After driving for less than two hours, Luo Fan received a message from Jiang Shengnan and slammed on the brakes.

Rose reached Sequence Level 18 for an unexplained reason and recruited a young Prophecy Sequence diviner to start the Holy Light Convoy. Meanwhile, Jiang Shengnan asked Luo Fan to supply baby bok choy to the Aerospace Base, and he began negotiating the daily quantity and price.

• Rose's Sequence Level rose from 17 to 18 while she walked, though she could not determine what had caused it.
• Rose met a crying Level 8 Prophecy Sequence boy whose convoy had been killed by Weird, and invited him to join her.
• Rose named their new group the Holy Light Convoy.
• Jiang Shengnan asked Luo Fan to supply leafy greens and apples to the Aerospace Base.
• Luo Fan said he could provide up to 1,000 jin of baby bok choy each day and began discussing a price with Jiang Shengnan.

Luo Fan negotiated a daily baby bok choy supply deal with the Aerospace Base, settling on thirty-five jin per Weird Crystal with shipping waived. After joking with Jiang Shengnan about romance and money, he asked what else she wanted to discuss.

• Jiang Shengnan proposed buying a large daily supply of baby bok choy for one Weird Crystal per forty jin, while Luo Fan argued that the vegetables were scarce.
• Jiang Shengnan challenged Luo Fan to reduce the supply to fifty jin a day if he insisted they were difficult to obtain, then pointed out that his Trading Section price was already much lower.
• Luo Fan and Jiang Shengnan haggled over the price and agreed on thirty-five jin per Weird Crystal for a thousand jin daily, with shipping fees waived.
• Luo Fan calculated that the deal would bring in nearly thirty Weird Crystals a day to fund enhancements for his Uncanny Artifacts.
• Jiang Shengnan asked whether Luo Fan had free time, and they teased each other about dating, frugality, and Weird Crystals.
• Luo Fan ended the joking and asked Jiang Shengnan what else she wanted to discuss.

Luo Fan declined Jiang Shengnan’s offer to join a rescue mission because he feared a sun-walking Rule-Type Weird might target him and An Xiaoran. At the Aerospace Base, the Golden Weird Mirror declared that no Weird could walk in sunlight and identified Luo Fan’s encounter as an impersonation scam using a Sequence User’s skill; Luo Fan then received Jiang Shengnan’s reply, alongside a character sheet for Ximen Chuixue.

• Jiang Shengnan offered Luo Fan five Second-Order Weird Crystals to join a four-person team rescuing an abducted person, and Luo Fan questioned how the captive could still be alive.
• Luo Fan declined, explaining that a sun-walking Rule-Type Weird had saved An Xiaoran and might come after them, so they had left the Hope Convoy to protect it.
• Jiang Shengnan showed Luo Fan’s message to Professor Wen, who insisted that Weird could not walk in sunlight and requested the Golden Weird Mirror.
• The Golden Weird Mirror answered that no Weird could walk in sunlight, then identified the being Luo Fan encountered as an impersonation scam using a Sequence User’s skill.
• After waiting over ten minutes for Jiang Shengnan’s reply, Luo Fan received a message that included Ximen Chuixue’s character sheet.

Luo Fan learned from Jiang Shengnan that the sunlight-walking female Weird was actually a Sequence User in disguise, and bargained over the cost of the information. Suspecting Rose had posed as the Weird to save An Xiaoran, he asked Jiang Shengnan where to meet and whether An Xiaoran’s new skill could help with the mission.

• Jiang Shengnan told Luo Fan that investigating the female Weird had cost the Aerospace Base two Second-Order Weird Crystals and asked him to waive his mission payment.
• Luo Fan refused to work for free, negotiated a one-crystal discount on the information, and agreed to receive four Second-Order Weird Crystals for the mission.
• Jiang Shengnan revealed that the female Weird was a Sequence User in disguise and posed no threat to Luo Fan.
• Luo Fan realized he might have been worrying unnecessarily and wondered whether Rose had impersonated the Weird and given An Xiaoran a third tier Weird Crystal.
• Luo Fan told Jiang Shengnan that An Xiaoran was with him, asked where they should meet, and explained that An Xiaoran had awakened Holy Light Dispel.

Luo Fan and An Xiaoran joined Jiang Shengnan’s team by helicopter for a mission nearly two hundred kilometers away, and the group introduced their abilities to prepare for the fight. The chapter ended when Jiang Shengnan questioned how Luo Fan could be holding his Weird Gun, since she thought it was on cooldown.

• Jiang Shengnan arrived by helicopter with Li Yan and Zhao Yong and took Luo Fan and An Xiaoran aboard for the distant mission.
• Li Yan introduced herself as a Level 28 Witch Sequence user with powerful support and control skills.
• Zhao Yong revealed that his Counterattack was a rule-type skill that negated an attack and returned three times his damage.
• Luo Fan introduced An Xiaoran as a Level 16 Holy Light Angel Sequence user and explained his Hunter skills and Tricolor Contract.
• Luo Fan showed the group his rule-type Weird Gun, and Jiang Shengnan asked why it was available when she believed it was on cooldown.

Luo Fan joined Jiang Shengnan's squad on a mission to rescue Mr. Mo Mo from a Third-Tier Weird's lair. At the cave entrance, Luo Fan used his Far-Sensing Wave Hat to scout ahead, and his psychic probe revealed something astonishing.

• Luo Fan told Jiang Shengnan that he could eliminate the Weird Gun's cooldown side effect, then introduced the squad to his abilities.
• Jiang Shengnan explained that Mr. Mo Mo, the inventor who created the Doomsday Phones, had been captured and was being held in a nearby lair.
• The squad flew toward the lair, and Luo Fan shot down several Weird that attacked their helicopter along the way.
• The squad reached a large man-made cave in a hill, where Luo Fan stopped Jiang Shengnan from entering and offered to scout with his psychic power.
• Luo Fan used the Far-Sensing Wave Hat to probe deep into the cave, then widened his eyes in disbelief when his scan reached about 2,500 meters.

Luo Fan and the others descended through the Weird nest to a sealed underground palace, suspecting that a powerful rule Weird waited inside. When Luo Fan tried to open the stone gate, it began opening on its own, accompanied by a giggle.

• Luo Fan told Jiang Shengnan and the others that the passage descended to a sealed stone gate guarded by two red lanterns, and they suspected a rule Weird lived beyond it.
• Jiang Shengnan led the group onward because they had to rescue Mr. Mo Mo and recover his Doomsday Phone.
• Zhao Yong said they might depend on Luo Fan against a rule Weird, and Jiang Shengnan revealed that Luo Fan had killed three before.
• Luo Fan and the others reached the gate 2,500 meters underground, where the lanterns burned despite the depth and lack of apparent oxygen problems.
• Luo Fan tried pushing the gate and listening at its crack, but it began opening by itself as a clear giggle sounded from inside.

Luo Fan and his companions entered an underground palace after a group of talking Weirds blocked their escape, and they learned that the young lady of the palace was to be married in three days. They discussed how to respond from their assigned courtyard, until Jiang Shengnan’s expression changed as she opened her Mustard Seed Bag.

• The stone doors opened to reveal Xiaodie and a dozen humanlike Weirds, and Luo Fan tried to retreat with his companions.
• Xiaodie told Luo Fan that the passage behind them was blocked, so he and the others entered the underground palace.
• Xiaodie explained that the young lady was getting married in three days and led the group to a side courtyard where they could stay.
• Luo Fan asked his companions for ideas, and Zhao Yong suggested fighting while Jiang Shengnan warned that the talking Weirds and the palace were unusual.
• Luo Fan suggested asking Master Wen Hao for advice, and Jiang Shengnan opened her Mustard Seed Bag to retrieve her apocalypse phone before her expression changed drastically.

After Jiang Shengnan, Zhao Yong, and Li Yan found that their abilities and Mustard Seed Bags were sealed inside the Weird Nest, Luo Fan recognized the effect but concealed that his independent system remained usable. He raised the group’s spirits by pointing out that the seal might also prevent the Weirds from using their powers, then asked whether they had noticed something strange about Xiaodie.

• Jiang Shengnan, Zhao Yong, and Li Yan discovered they could neither open their Mustard Seed Bags nor use their abilities, and Luo Fan found that his Sequence powers were sealed too.
• Luo Fan said he had encountered a similar Rule-Type Weird before and explained that he had killed it, though he did not reveal that his Mall still worked.
• Jiang Shengnan asked Luo Fan how he had survived the previous encounter, and he said he had escaped through luck and that they should wait until they saw their current target.
• Jiang Shengnan asked Luo Fan what the group should do, and he argued that the seal might also stop the Weirds in the nest from using their powers.
• Luo Fan asked whether anyone had noticed Xiaodie acting strangely when they entered, and Zhao Yong urged him to explain.

Luo Fan reasoned that the Weird Nest had been sealed after its owner learned of the group’s arrival, and he planned to investigate while the others tried to escape. Xiaodie revealed that the young lady was taking Mo Mo, a human, as her spouse, and Luo Fan asked to see him.

• Luo Fan connected the group’s southwest journey with Brother Zhao’s divination and proposed that the Weird Nest’s owner had learned of their arrival before sealing it.
• Luo Fan planned to question Xiaodie about Mr. Mo Mo while Zhao Yong and the others looked for a way to sneak out.
• Xiaodie brought the group food, and Luo Fan asked her about the wedding and its guests.
• Xiaodie explained that the young lady was taking a spouse into her household and that the group were the only guests.
• Xiaodie identified the groom as Mo Mo, and Luo Fan asked if they could go see him.

Luo Fan and his companions found Mo Mo in the Weird Nest, where a Weird bride planned to marry him and had given him a rule-type weird crystal as a betrothal gift. After discussing their need to escape, Luo Fan asked Xiaodie to let them meet the bride.

• Xiaodie readily agreed to take Luo Fan and his companions to Mo Mo, and led them through the underground palace.
• Luo Fan's group met Mo Mo, who confirmed they had come from the Aerospace Base to find him.
• Mo Mo explained that the young lady intended to marry him, followed traditional wedding customs, and had given him a rule-type weird crystal, though he had never seen her face.
• Mo Mo and the others agreed that escaping the Weird Nest was their priority, since the Weirds' current restraint did not guarantee their safety.
• Luo Fan told the group he wanted to meet the young lady before deciding how to escape, then asked Xiaodie to arrange the meeting.

Luo Fan questioned the Bride Weird while Jiang Shengnan and the others searched the underground palace for an escape route. After hearing that the bride seemed willing to let the guests leave, the group weighed the apparent comforts of staying against the danger of trusting her, and Li Yan reported that they had found a possible way out.

• Luo Fan asked Xiaodie to keep the Bride Weird occupied while Jiang Shengnan and the others searched for an escape route, then took An Xiaoran with him to meet the bride.
• Luo Fan provoked the Bride Weird into lifting her veil, then asked whether the groom would live in the underground palace and whether the guests could leave after the feast.
• The Bride Weird said the groom would live with her and that the guests could choose whether to stay or leave.
• Luo Fan returned to the courtyard and told the group what the Bride Weird had said, prompting Zhao Yong and Jiang Shengnan to joke that staying might be comfortable.
• Mo Mo warned that the Bride Weird could be deceiving them, and Luo Fan asked whether the search party had found an escape route.
• Li Yan told Luo Fan that the group had found a possible way to escape.

Luo Fan used explosions to distract the Weird and led Jiang Shengnan and the others toward the Underground Palace’s exit. As they escaped, he reached Lv20 and learned the requirements for advancing to a Second-Tier Sequence, which left him with a strange expression.

• Luo Fan confirmed that the desolate area Jiang Shengnan’s group had found offered the safest escape route and told them to wait for a disturbance.
• Luo Fan set a timed fire using yarn, gasoline, and twenty cylinders of liquefied gas, triggering a chain of explosions that drew the Weird away.
• Luo Fan led Jiang Shengnan, An Xiaoran, and the others through the emptied area toward the stone gate, with the Nightmare Nekomata scouting ahead.
• Luo Fan shot the Second-Tier Weird guarding the gate with his Weird Gun, then ran for the exit with the group.
• Luo Fan’s Sequence Level rose to Lv20, and he instinctively learned the requirements for advancing to a Second-Tier Sequence.

Luo Fan and his companions escaped the palace but found the passage blocked until they destroyed the entrance lanterns. The Weird Bride appeared before they could flee, confronted Mo Mo about his false promise to marry her, and threatened to kill them all after he admitted he had lied.

• Luo Fan used the Far-Sensing Wave Hat to scan the entrance and ordered Jiang Shengnan to destroy the red lanterns, making the blocked passage disappear.
• An Xiaoran made a small light with her Holy Light, and the group ran toward the passage's exit.
• The Weird Bride appeared in their path, lifted her veil, and tearfully asked Mo Mo why he had broken his promise to marry her.
• Mo Mo explained that he had agreed to marry the Weird Bride only to survive after she captured him, then admitted he had been lying to her.
• The Weird Bride's uncanny energy spread as black mist, and she threatened to kill everyone.

Luo Fan realized the Ghost Bride was the only Weird in the nest, with the servants and guards serving as her doppelgängers. As she prepared to kill the group, he confessed that he loved her, and she hesitated and asked if he truly wanted to marry her.

• Zhao Yong and the Nightmare Nekomata attacked the Ghost Bride, but her Weird aura immobilized everyone and left Mo Mo in danger.
• Luo Fan called the bride Xiaodie and explained that the apparent servants, maids, and guards were all her doppelgängers.
• The Ghost Bride confirmed Luo Fan's guess but still intended to kill the group.
• Luo Fan told the bride he had arranged the escape because he had fallen for her and did not want her to marry someone else.
• The bride lowered her hand, blushed, and asked whether Luo Fan truly wanted to marry her.

Luo Fan charmed the Weird Bride with cheesy pickup lines, persuading her to marry him instead of Mo Mo. He sent Jiang Shengnan and the others away, but the Weird Bride called them back as they were leaving.

• Luo Fan flirted with the Weird Bride until her Weird aura vanished and she eagerly agreed to marry him.
• Luo Fan asked the Weird Bride to let Jiang Shengnan and the others leave, and she agreed.
• Jiang Shengnan led the others toward the passage while An Xiaoran chose to stay with Luo Fan.
• Mo Mo thanked Luo Fan, and Li Yan praised him before the group departed.
• The Weird Bride called out just as Jiang Shengnan and the others were about to leave, making them stop and turn back warily.

After Jiang Shengnan’s group escaped the Weird Nest, Luo Fan accepted the Weird Bride’s rule-type Weird Crystal and agreed to marry her. The wedding took place in the Underground Palace, where Luo Fan was left to enter the bridal chamber.

• The Weird Bride reclaimed the rule-type Weird Crystal from Mo Mo and gave it to Luo Fan, allowing Jiang Shengnan and the others to leave.
• Jiang Shengnan’s group emerged into sunlight and debated rescuing Luo Fan, but Jiang Shengnan and Mo Mo said bombing or digging out the Underground Palace would be too dangerous.
• Luo Fan accepted the Weird Crystal, took the Weird Bride’s hand, and returned to the Underground Palace with An Xiaoran and the Nightmare Nekomata following.
• The Weird Bride summoned Xiaodie and her household servants, then created many female Weird Doppelgängers in appearances Luo Fan requested.
• Luo Fan and the Weird Bride held a wedding ceremony in the Underground Palace, and the surrounding Weird congratulated him.
• Xiaodie told Luo Fan that it was time to enter the bridal chamber.

Luo Fan discovered that the Underground Palace’s seal no longer affected him, while An Xiaoran remained unable to use her powers, and he arranged for her to leave with Xiao Hei. After spending three days with the Weird Bride and absorbing the rule-type weird crystal, he prepared to leave and wondered whether to attack her as she slept.

• Luo Fan found messages from Zhao Chunfeng and Jiang Shengnan, then quietly left the sleeping Weird Bride and went to breakfast with An Xiaoran.
• Luo Fan persuaded An Xiaoran to leave the Weird Nest with Xiao Hei later, and he listed 500 kilograms of baby bok choy for the Aerospace Base.
• Jiang Shengnan told Luo Fan that the Underground Palace’s sealing power was still active, and Luo Fan realized it did not affect him although it prevented An Xiaoran from using her Holy Light.
• Luo Fan spent three days staying close to the Weird Bride while absorbing the rule-type weird crystal, and An Xiaoran left the Weird Nest with Xiao Hei under cover of darkness.
• Luo Fan completed absorbing the crystal as the Weird Bride slept and considered whether to attack her before leaving the Weird Nest.

After absorbing the rule-type weird crystal, Luo Fan decided against killing the sleeping Weird Bride and secretly escaped from the Underground Palace. The Weird Bride discovered he was gone and found a letter he had left at the passage exit.

• Luo Fan finished absorbing the rule-type weird crystal and weighed whether to kill the Weird Bride, but chose not to risk attacking her.
• Luo Fan slipped past Xiaodie, used the Invisibility Cloak and Spirit Void Step, and slowly opened the stone gate without waking the guard weird.
• Luo Fan squeezed through the gate and ran silently down the 2,500-meter passage toward the exit.
• Xiaodie realized Luo Fan had not returned from the toilet, found it empty, and screamed, waking the weirds in the Underground Palace.
• The Weird Bride rushed to the passage exit but could not cross into the sunlight, then spotted an envelope Luo Fan had left beneath a stone.

Luo Fan escaped the Weird Nest, reunited with An Xiaoran, and resumed the baby bok choy trade with Jiang Shengnan. As he drove away, the Weird Bride found and unfolded the letter he had left behind.

• Luo Fan escaped the Weird Nest and left a letter in its passage as a fallback before departing.
• Luo Fan found An Xiaoran and Xiao Hei waiting by his damaged bus, and learned An Xiaoran had driven it there and had been waiting without food.
• Luo Fan refueled the bus, gave An Xiaoran milk and chocolate, fed Xiao Hei, and drove away from the Weird Nest.
• Luo Fan contacted Zhao Chunfeng and Jiang Shengnan, then received payment for the baby bok choy trade and argued that Jiang Shengnan owed him one more First-Order Weird Crystal.
• Luo Fan told Jiang Shengnan he had escaped but had not discovered the Weird Bride's rules, while the Weird Bride picked up and unfolded his letter.
