Chapter 46
Bonus Reward: Golden Body Card
There are still seven hours left until the mission ends.
Chen Yu and his group had already returned ahead of time, stepping over the edge of a glacial crevasse.
The flashlights shone again around the outpost...
Many vehicles remain in their original positions, but some are destined to remain stationary forever.
The cold, impersonal notification tone arrived precisely on time:
[Notification: Passenger detected has left the time-limited mission area]
Global information synchronization channels have been restored.
Number of Geothermal Core Prototypes Found in the Team: 1
Main Quest: Completed

[Already stored in the vehicle owner's personal backpack]
"???"
Chen Yu's face stiffened; he was caught off guard!
Building materials?!
Was it sent directly to the car owner's personal backpack?
He glanced at his backpack subconsciously and noticed that the compartments representing building materials had indeed increased significantly!
but...
This is a huge loss for Chen Yu!
If I could just switch to someone else, whether it's Deng Yuxin or Wang Mengmeng, I could at least double what I earned!
That's right, Yang Kexin did not become Hongluan.
Chen Yu tried to follow in Wang Mengmeng's footsteps, but failed.
Taming is not that simple.
But Chen Yu could sense that Yang Kexin was very obedient and did not have any aversion to him. He knew he would have plenty of time to teach her in the future.
Becoming a Red Phoenix is only a matter of time.
"That's... all done? We're out?!"
Wang Mengmeng stared wide-eyed, looking back at the deep crack, then at her feet.
"Brother Chen Yu, haven't we hit the jackpot?!"
She excitedly spun around a little bit on the spot, almost slipping on the ice.
He was hurriedly supported by Li Mengyao, who was standing nearby.
Li Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, I'm out of that awful place. I hope I don't have any nightmares."
Zhang Wanyue quickly swept the empty ice field with her flashlight.
She then analyzed, "It seems that no other teams have returned beforehand; we are the first."
Yang Kexin, who had just joined the group, glanced back at the abyss.
All of this happened so fast, so efficiently it was unreal.
Hearing that cold notification, she truly realized that she had indeed changed vehicles.
She couldn't help but steal a glance at Chen Yu's profile before quickly looking down again.
Deng Yuxin gently tugged at Chen Yu's sleeve: "Chen Yu, this time... didn't you have time to find the extra building material chests?"
Chen Yu nodded regretfully: "Mm."
That's true; he himself is still immersed in the sadness he just reported.
Fortunately, the notification sound didn't end...
[Task-based evaluation]
[Bonus rewards are being processed...]
[Bonus Reward: Golden Body Card x1]
[Already stored in passenger's personal backpack]
Chen Yu was taken aback: "There's more?"
Wang Mengmeng exclaimed, "An extra reward!"
Li Mengyao: "Golden Body Card, what's that? It sounds pretty intimidating..."
Deng Yuxin murmured, "It sounds like something from a game."
Zhang Wanyue: "The golden body... In traditional concepts, it often refers to something that is solid and indestructible, and that all evils are warded off, but this is a path to survival, so no one can say for sure."
Yang Kexin took out a gold card from her backpack.
She had a vague sense of familiarity, like the invitation card Chen Yu had given her not long ago.
Information flows into the mind:
[Golden Body Card]
Description: A strange card containing the power to temporarily transcend the rules; golden light appears when activated.
Effect: Upon activation, the user enters a "rule-detached" state for the next 2.5 seconds. In this state, the user will temporarily shield themselves from all aura and fluctuations, and resist all damage.
When everyone took out their cards and saw the descriptions, their pupils constricted!
2.5 seconds?!
The rules have been broken!
Shielding one's aura?
Resist all harm?
The result was completely different from what was initially expected!
It's more mysterious and more unique!
Li Mengyao didn't quite understand: "Rules broken... two and a half seconds? What's the use of that? It's not even enough to run away, is it?"
Wang Mengmeng's eyes lit up: "Wow! Invisibility for two and a half seconds? Does that mean I can steal things?"
Zhang Wanyue shook her head helplessly: "Using this card to steal is a complete waste. In 2.5 seconds, you can create the only way out of a seemingly hopeless encirclement and launch a counterattack!"
Ultimately, it's like playing a video game; a portable invincible body has countless uses!
After listening to Zhang Wanyue's analysis, Yang Kexin understood the value of the card.
But next second.
Zhang Wanyue, however, took the initiative to hand the Golden Body Card to Chen Yu.
Yang Kexin: "???"
Chen Yu's lips curled up slightly; the class monitor was really getting more and more used to the survival path.
This kind of awareness is extremely precious.
Wang Mengmeng and Deng Yuxin also realized what was happening. Although they could tell they were reluctant, they still handed it over.
"Here, Brother Chen Yu, I'm afraid I'll misuse it if I get nervous."
"Chen Yu, you're always the one taking care of me, so this card should be kept for you."
Li Mengyao followed closely behind, not daring to keep any: "Mine is for you too."
At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to Yang Kexin.
Yang Kexin suddenly chuckled, revealing her small, sharp canine teeth, looking lively and agile.
"So that's how it is..."
She reached out and handed him the card, saying, "Chen Yu, I believe you will help me survive!"
Chen Yu looked at the five gold cards in front of him.
He smiled slightly: "Keep it yourselves. This is a life-saving card. Relying on others will always be too late. These two and a half seconds are not for me to save my skills."
As they spoke, they finally reached the door of the minibus.
Chen Yu stepped forward, grasped the cold doorknob, and pushed it open.
"call--!"
Instantly, a surging, warm current enveloped him entirely!
The bus's efficient heating system maintains basic operation even when no one is around. At this moment, it is fiercely clashing with the cold air outside, even forming a small white wave of air!
The five women who followed were immediately engulfed by this warmth!
"Whoa—!"
Wang Mengmeng let out a groan that was almost a sigh.
Chen Yu: "..."
He sat down directly in his designated seat, but couldn't suppress a smile...
The Golden Body Card is powerful, but the reason he doesn't want it... is because just now, his unique talent notification went off!
