Chapter 353: Chapter 325 Regression

[Regular Task "Anchor Point Connection" has been completed]

[Reward Settlement in Progress]

[Overall Player Performance: S+, Game Coin and Experience Points increased to 160%]

[Task Reward 1: For each unit killed, receive the corresponding Game Coin and Experience Points]

As the main culprit and instigator, Dr. Noah provided Li Cheng with 2600 Game Coins and 1500 Experience Points. Adding other mutated monsters, the total harvest was 3130 Game Coins and 2130 Experience Points.

After multiplying by the factor of 1.6, he received 5008 Game Coins and 3408 Experience Points.

Li Cheng went from Lv16, Experience Bar 920/1600,

up to Lv18, Experience Bar 1028/1800. Leveling up twice in a row, congratulations!

By the way, when a typical summoning system player commands a pet to kill a monster, the rewards are subtly reduced, depending on the number of pets and their independent action abilities.

However, the rewards for monsters killed by Gray Rain were fully transferred to Li Cheng by the system without any discounts, perhaps because Gray Rain’s slaughtering was done purely by instinct without thinking...

[Task Reward 2: Random item*1, quality depends on completion rating]

"My requirements are not high, just give me something perfect~"

Humming a tune, Li Cheng went to the bathroom to shower and incense, and carefully cleaned his hands with soap. Then he returned to the study, rubbed his palms vigorously, and shouted loudly, "Open!"

A white light flashed, and in the last space of the item bar, a full-metal handgun with a sci-fi feel appeared.

It was quite heavy, with a curved hand guard at the grip that protected the hand and wrist of the gun user.

On both sides of the gun body, there was a cartoon image of an ape scratching its head in confusion.

[Item Name: Ape-man Degeneration Gun]

[Type: Handgun]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Attack Power: Extremely Low]

[Special Effect: Balance Patch. The Ape-man Degeneration Gun has five bullets. When the bullets hit the target, they won’t cause any damage but will make the target undergo abnormal changes, causing them to degrade in the general sense of becoming "bad", "weak", or "inferior".]

[Consumption: Each shot consumes 200 points of Spiritual Power Value and 100+10% Sanity Value]

[Cooling Time: None]

[Use Conditions: Pass a WAIS-R Wechsler Intelligence Test with full effort, scoring 70 or lower]

[Remarks: The same target can undergo a maximum of three degradations at the same time. After a certain period, it will recover automatically. The intensity and duration of degradation depend on the target’s strength.]

[Remarks: Bullets automatically recover one every five minutes and cannot be reloaded in any other way]

[Remarks: "Biologists say that the brain thrives on use and decays with inactivity!" Principal Wang demanded students about to take college entrance exams to recite the multiplication table every day at the hundred-day oath ceremony.]

"This gun... Why does it feel like a conceptual weapon?"

Li Cheng’s eyes lit up as he weighed the Ape-man Degeneration Gun up and down, discovering that the trigger seemed to be welded shut, immobile.

After pondering for a moment, he walked to the bedroom. Gray Rain was lying on the specially reinforced steel frame bed playing a gacha mobile game, murmuring under her breath.

"September 2020 Wind God card pool, October US hurricane Delta.

December 2020 Rock God card pool, same month Nevada earthquake.

September 2021 Thunder God card pool, US Northeast heavy rainstorm.

November 2022 Grass God card pool, US Midwest drought.

This year Fire God card pool, Los Angeles fire, next the Ice God’s turn to shine hahaha..."

I’m over there saying "What the hell, ape," and you’re over here saying "What the hell, original," right?

Li Cheng’s eye twitched as he stepped forward to rub Gray Rain’s hair, "Stop playing mobile games, come help me."

"Coming."

Having just emptied her shopping cart, Gray Rain was in a great mood, beaming as she put away her phone and followed Li Cheng into the three-dimensional warehouse.

After explaining the situation briefly, Li Cheng let Gray Rain supervise from the side,

while he activated the Assembly Puppet special effect, separated part of his brain, then chugged cold medicine to lower his intelligence, and began taking the WAIS-R Wechsler Intelligence Test.

Used to the supernormal thinking mode of the Multi-threaded Brain Domain Method, suddenly lowering his intelligence felt unbearably uncomfortable to Li Cheng, like suffering a hangover from drinking too much.

When his cognitive ability returned, he looked up to see the clock on the wall. Four hours had passed unknowingly, and he had no memory of those four hours at all.

"Hiss... It feels like my brain has grown back."

Li Cheng rubbed his sore head, moved away the intelligence test sheets filled with doodles on the table, and turned to see Gray Rain holding her phone and giggling idiotically.

"What are you laughing at?"

Li Cheng moved closer, and Gray Rain quickly put away her phone, shaking her head like a rattle drum, "Nothing, nothing."

"Nothing, nothing, but won’t let me see."

Li Cheng sensed something amiss, snapped his fingers, and activated the Demon Exchange skill to swap places with Gray Rain, taking her phone.

On the phone screen, the album saved dozens of videos showing Li Cheng, with his significantly reduced intelligence (even lower than Forrest Gump’s 75 points), being teased by Gray Rain with a grilled sausage.

"Want to eat? Call me Big Sis."

"Big Worm Sis."

"? It’s Big Sis, not Big Worm Sis."

"Big Sis."

"Can’t hear you, really can’t hear. Not enough energy, do it again!"

"Big Sis!"

"Good, come over and massage my shoulders."

Li Cheng’s eye twitched uncontrollably as he watched the abstract videos in the album. He lightly but firmly flicked Gray Rain’s forehead, "Go play somewhere else."

The forehead flick might work on an ordinary brat, but unfortunately, Gray Rain was a Liquid Metal Robot; hitting her head only produced a pleasant "clang" metal echo, which sounded nice and was music to her ears.

After tossing the phone back to Gray Rain, Li Cheng took out the Ape-man Degeneration Gun again. This time, the trigger finally moved.

With a "bang," the metal bullet flew out of the gun chamber, hitting a concrete target. It instantly disappeared upon impact.

The target surface showed no signs, but after a slight delay, the original concrete structure visibly transformed into a brick wall.

"Concrete degrading to bricks?"

Li Cheng rubbed his chin with interest, took out a stack of brand-new $20 bills from the shelf, and fired at the bills.

Bang!

The original $20 bills turned into $5 bills, more wrinkled and older.

The second shot turned the $5 bills into $1 bills, with some bills showing signs of damage.

The third shot, the dollar bills directly turned into 10 million Zimbabwean Dollars.

"Not only did the face value change, but the currency itself also transformed; truly a conceptual weapon."

Li Cheng’s brain worked furiously, continually testing.

Firing at gold, it degraded into silver.

Firing at a KFC family bucket, it degraded into an affordable fried chicken meal.

Firing at Pepsi, it degraded into Coca-Cola. And vice versa — in the system’s judgment, these two colas seemed almost identical.

Firing at the 1989 release of Mobile Suit Gundam 0080, it degraded into Netflix’s original 2024 animation Mobile Suit Gundam: Revenge Soul.

Similarly, firing at Fast and Furious 5, it degraded into Fast and Furious 10.

Uh, well, that’s quite accurate.

The funniest part was when Li Cheng fired the Ape-man Degeneration Gun at some luxury brands, like designer bags, shoes, and clothes. The items themselves showed no changes, only the brand logos were removed.
