Chapter 1224: Void Explorer Medal

Lu Zhou stood in a pure white space. He walked up to a translucent holographic panel and saw a prompt line.

[Congratulations, User, “Call From The Void” urgent mission completed.]

[Mission status: The road to the search of truth is not always smooth. There are many endless and mysterious things we don’t understand in the vast universe. Only those with tenacity can pass the test and go into the legendary utopia…]

[Mission evaluation: S+]

[Reward: One million physics experience points. Void Explorer Medal, a gift from Void (S-level evaluation bonus), materialism +10]

A million experience points was quite a lot.

Lu Zhou saw the pale golden light particles pour from the mission panel to the experience progress bar in his characteristic panel. He had a warm smile on his face.

How long has it been?

He almost forgot this feeling of joy.

This mission had a huge reward return. He was stuck at level 8 physics for a long time now. This was a big step toward finally reaching level 9.

What confused Lu Zhou was what the Void explorer medal was.

“Last time, it was the civilization rescuer medal… Is there any meaning in collecting this stuff?”

If I collect enough medals, will the Void Civilization issue me a visa, an honorary citizenship certificate, or something else?

Lu Zhou held the shiny bronze medal in his right hand. He felt a wave of warmth in his palm.

Compared with the civilization rescuer medal, the “Void explorer” medal was very light. The medal consisted of a bronze button the size of a thumbnail that could be pinned to his shirt. The rest of the medal was a projection, using some kind of holographic technology. It was a beautiful illusion, just like the Void itself.

However, the holographic technology was more advanced than the one on Earth. It did not require water vapor as a medium and did not use the Tyndall effect at all. It was like it projected an image directly into reality. Lu Zhou had no idea what kind of technology it was.

Lu Zhou watched the medal change shape in his palm. He put it back into his inventory, alongside the civilization rescuer medal.

Perhaps in the distant future, after he completely lifted the cover of the Void, he would be lucky enough to know the true meaning behind these medals. But as for now, he was going to leave them alone.

In addition to the medal, the system also gave him special rewards for the S+ mission rating.

Lu Zhou felt like he hadn’t gotten an S-grade mission evaluation in a long time.

He looked at the words on the holographic panel: [Do you want to open the gift of the Void?]. He then cleared his throat and said, “Open!”

A blue wave of light floated from the holographic panel and approached Lu Zhou by half an inch.

Lu Zhou looked at the purple light floating in front of him. He hesitated for a moment. He then extended his right hand and touched the center of the light.

What happened next was not what he expected.

This did not trigger a Void Memory. Instead, a warm current wrapped around his fingers.

Lu Zhou paused for a second with a strange look on his face.

“Is this a subspace? Or… some kind of high-dimensional fragment?

“Amazing…”

His entire hand did not pass through the beam of light. Instead, it was swallowed by the light. His hand entered a different, sticky paste-like space. The piece of space seemed infinite. It was much larger than the volume of the light particles themselves.

Lu Zhou stretched his entire arm in. He was wondering what the Void wanted to give himself. Suddenly, his right hand touched a solid object.

He grabbed the object and pulled it out of the cloud of purple light.

After his hand was pulled out of the light cloud, the purple light quickly shrank and disappeared into nothingness.

Lu Zhou felt a cold and hard object in his hand.

“What’s this…”

Lu Zhou looked at the pen-sized metal tube in his hand curiously.

On one side of the metal tube, there was a transparent glass line with graded marks. He could see the amount of dark green liquid inside the tube through the glass line.

He shook the tube gently and watched the viscous liquid shaking slowly in the metal tube. He started to get more and more curious.

“Nutrition mixture? No, it shouldn’t be such a useless thing.”

His intuition told him that this was some kind of special biomass or a chemical substance that benefited life organisms.

Of course, it could also be something dangerous.

Even though so far, The Observer had only shown him kindness, it was better to be safe than sorry.

“I’ll take it back to the lab for testing first.”

Lu Zhou exited the system space and jumped out of his bed. He then called Wang Peng.

“Pick me up downstairs.”

“Roger that.”

After a while, he heard a car engine outside his gate and saw headlights through the trees.

Lu Zhou asked Xiao Ai to take care of the house. He then put on a change of clothes and left.

The Electric Purple vehicle was parked outside his gate.

Wang Peng opened the door for Lu Zhou. After Lu Zhou got in the car, he asked, “It’s so late, are we still going to the research institute?”

“Yeah.” Lu Zhou took out his mobile phone and connected it to the database of the Institute for Advanced Study. He checked the schedule of various biology laboratories and replied casually, “There is something I can’t wait to figure out.”

Can’t wait to figure out?

Even though he was curious about what it was, Wang Peng knew he wouldn’t understand anyway. So he focused on driving the car to the parking lot of the Institute for Advanced Study.

He turned off the engine and looked at Lu Zhou.

“Should I wait here for you?”

Lu Zhou unfastened his seat belt and replied, “No need, you can go back first.”

Wang Peng: “Are you sure? I don’t mind.”

“I’m sure.” Lu Zhou nodded and looked at the institute. “I think I might have to stay here all night.”
