In an instant, the fire enveloped Wei Ge, who was holding the bone pottery, turning him into a flaming man. His space suit instantly turned to ashes.
Zhou Wen jumped in fright and immediately informed Ice Maiden to save him. Her strength was the best at restraining fire-elemental powers, but Ice Maiden didn't move as she stared at Wei Ge.
Zhou Wen realized that something was amiss. On careful look, he saw that the flames had already flowed into Wei Ge's body. The flames weren't burning from the outside to the inside, but from the inside out.
Now, Wei Ge's body was like a flaming man. It was as though the flames had seeped into every inch of his cells. As for the bone pottery in his hand, it turned to ashes in the flames.
The corpse beside him also turned to ashes at this moment. He wasn't burned, but he had turned to ashes. This gave Zhou Wen an ominous feeling.
Shen Yuchi and Wang Qiuyuan also looked at Wei Ge in horror. Although the flames on Wei Ge's body were terrifying, they didn't hear him cry out in pain.
"I … I'm finally back …" The flames gradually converged into Wei Ge's body. His body remained unharmed in the fire as he spoke.
However, Zhou Wen didn't find the voice to be Wei Ge's. His tone and intonation were completely different from Wei Ge's.
"Who are you?" Zhou Wen asked as he stared at Wei Ge.
Now, he regretted not stopping Wei Ge. Although the two of them hadn't interacted much, they were classmates after all. Zhou Wen still felt uncomfortable watching him be occupied by an unknown creature.
"Who am I?" The flames on Wei Ge's body had almost completely extinguished as he returned to his original appearance. Although his appearance hadn't changed, for some reason, he felt that the current Wei Ge was completely different from before.
He looked up at the universe and said in a strange tone, "I'm not human."
"Then what are you?" Zhou Wen looked at Wei Ge as countless thoughts flashed through his mind. However, he couldn't think of a way to help Wei Ge reclaim his body.
"I'm human," Wei Ge said slowly.
"Didn't you say that you aren't human?" Zhou Wen looked at him in puzzlement. He increasingly felt that Wei Ge was in danger this time. Not only was he a monster, but he was also a mentally ill monster.
However, Wei Ge didn't answer Zhou Wen. He turned to look in the direction of Earth, but as he was on the Moon's back, he couldn't see Earth.
"Is Earth still around?" Wei Ge asked.
"Of course it's still there, but it's on the other side of the Moon. I can't see it from here." Zhou Wen found it even odder.
"That's good. I should still be in time," Wei Ge muttered to himself. As he spoke, he walked out.
"Where are you going?" Zhou Wen exchanged looks with Ice Maiden and asked.
Shen Yuchi and Wang Qiuyuan hurriedly followed. Due to Wei Ge's existence, the invisible dimensional creature didn't attack them. If they were too far away, they would probably be attacked again.
The existence that occupied Wei Ge's "body" didn't look as aggressive as the dimensional creature.
"Take back my Companion Beast," Wei Ge said as he walked, as though he didn't care about Zhou Wen and company.
He didn't walk very fast, as if he was familiarizing himself with this body.
Wei Ge was already at the Epic stage, but Epic-ranked humans did not have the ability to survive on the Moon. However, he was walking naked on the Moon as though he was on Earth.
Where is your Companion Beast? Zhou Wen guessed that the creature under the tree stump might be his Companion Beast.
If he could subdue that thing, they would be in much less danger.
However, now that Wei Ge was possessed by him, he didn't know if he could recover.
Thinking back to when Wei Ge left school, he had once said that if he was lucky enough to beat Heaven by half a point, his life would be enough.
However, he hadn't done anything yet, and he was already doomed. He didn't know if there would be a day when he could realize his value.
However, Wei Ge didn't answer. All he did was continue walking forward. The direction he was walking in was the direction where Zhou Wen and company had encountered the invisible creature.
"That Terror creature is retreating. It seems to be afraid of this person," Ice Maiden secretly told Zhou Wen.
"Isn't that Terror creature his Companion Beast?" Zhou Wen asked softly.
"That's a Terror-grade dimensional creature. It's naturally impossible for it to be a Companion Beast." Ice Maiden paused before saying, "This person seems very strong."
"I also know that he's very strong. Now, I just want to know if Wei Ge has any hope of surviving?" Zhou Wen asked.
"I'm afraid it's impossible to reclaim his body," Ice Maiden answered with certainty.
Soon, Wei Ge returned to the spot where he had dug up the tree stump. He stood in front of the hole and stared at the huge hole. His eyes shot out a strange divine light like two divine lamps. When the light shone into the hole, a strange change immediately happened inside.
Suddenly, Zhou Wen and company saw a figure gradually condense in the hole. It was a huge dark-golden toad.
"In the legends of the East District, the moon is also known as Toad Palace. Legend has it that there's a golden toad inside. Could this be the legendary golden toad?" Shen Yuchi said as he stared at the golden toad.
Zhou Wen had roughly guessed that the person who had devoured the astronauts and inspectors was most likely this golden toad. However, he didn't know what power Wei Ge had used to make the Terror creature appear.
Soon, Zhou Wen realized that Wei Ge's target wasn't the golden toad. His gaze shone into the hole and saw an ancient jade door appear in what was originally a mine wall.
The jade door was crystalline and emitted an infinite chill. Zhou Wen looked carefully and saw the words "Moon Palace" written on the plaque above the door's eyebrows.
Holy sh * t, there really is a Moon Palace. Could Chang 'e and Moon Rabbit be inside? Zhou Wen was surprised when his gaze swept across the corner of the plaque. His surprise turned into disbelief.
In the corner of the plaque was a tiny palm symbol. The tiny palm symbol was holding a moon symbol.
There's actually a tiny palm symbol here! Zhou Wen was pleasantly surprised. This was an unexpected harvest.
Shen Yuchi and the others also looked at the Moon Palace in bewilderment. Although it wasn't strange for a mythical place to appear in this era, seeing the legendary Moon Palace still made their hearts ripple. After all, the legend of the Moon Palace was too famous in the Eastern District.
The light in Wei Ge's eyes converged as he slowly walked towards Moon Palace. After taking a few steps, the golden toad opened its mouth and extended a python-like tongue that swept towards Wei Ge.
Wei Ge extended his hand and flames appeared in it. They condensed into a flaming axe and severed the golden toad's tongue.
