Chapter 136: The Moon

Jin Xin slowly opened his eyes, smiling at Qu Kangping, "Team leader, what brings you to chat with me today?"

Qu Kangping looked at Jin Xin, gasping for breath, "What should I do?"

"Hahaha... you're asking me? You did ask the right person... Ouch!"

Qu Kangping took off the glass dome on Jin Xin's head and poked a finger through Jin Xin's eyeball, "I am not asking you."

Jin Xin screamed in pain, wishing he could immediately bite through Qu Kangping's neck, "You old thing, how dare you do this to me?"

"Shut up!"

Qu Kangping ran out holding Jin Xin's dead head.

Boom!

Suddenly, a bunch of cracks appeared on the corridor wall, and Qu Kangping instinctively jumped back.

A hairy monstrous hand broke through the wall, reaching out towards Qu Kangping.

Qu Kangping, holding Jin Xin's head under his arm, quickly drew his gun and fired.

Bang bang bang!

The mercury bullets pierced through the black claw, and the black blood instantly stained the entire wall red.

"Roar!"

Instead of retreating, the black claw tore a large hole in the wall.

"I'm here, I'm here!"

Jin Xin yelled loudly for help.

The monster, hearing Jin Xin's voice, turned its head toward him as expected.

"Fuck, shut up!"

Qu Kangping stuffed a jar of salt into Jin Xin's mouth.

Jin Xin's eyes rolled back, his cheeks twitching uncontrollably.

"Roar!"

The monster let out a loud roar and charged at Qu Kangping. It had a green face and fangs and stood two to three meters tall, too large for the narrow corridor.

Boom!

The giant claw swiped at Qu Kangping's head, shaving off a few strands of his hair.

Qu Kangping stepped forward and pressed the muzzle of his gun against the chest of the beast, repeatedly pulling the trigger.

Bang bang bang!

"Roar—"

The monster let out a pained howl and fell to the ground.

Qu Kangping took out the last jar of salt he had and sprinkled it over the head of the creature.

"Tell me, what should I do!"

Qu Kangping's eyes were red with desperation as he tried to summon all his intuition.

Finally, a faint red glow flickered before his eyes, heading straight to the west side of the prison room.

That was where the prisoners' personal belongings were stored. Was the intuition telling him to look for Jin Xin's personal items?

"Guess I'm down to my last resort."

In the real world, one couldn't use abilities from the weird world; he had to rely on rare bursts of intuition to find a sliver of hope.

As soon as he entered the storage room, Qu Kangping rummaged through the boxes and found Jin Xin's belongings.

A paintbrush, an incomplete set of tarot cards, and a suit that could change shape at will.

"Right... I remember Gu Yi mentioned Jin Xin's abilities, and his tarot cards also possessed strange powers."

As he thought, Qu Kangping picked up the paintbrush and tarot cards.

He spread the tarot cards out on the table, only to find they were all blank, with no images whatsoever.

Qu Kangping pondered for a moment, then he shuffled the tarot cards, split the deck, and placed it next to Jin Xin's head.

Suddenly, his inspiration began to spiral out of control, and Qu Kangping's vision was filled with red light.

He no longer knew whether his choice was right or wrong.

Bang!

Boom!

Outside, there were intense sounds of smashing, gunshots and roaring.

The weird force that tried to invade the Scranton Stability Anchor was piercing through the wall, heading straight for Qu Kangping's chest.

This weirdness was the strongest ever encountered.

If a decision was not made soon, death would be their only fate.

"This time, it's all down to fate."

Qu Kangping took out a paintbrush, dipped it in blue paint, and brushed it across Jin Xin's face.

The tarot cards beside him immediately reacted, bursting into a shimmer of eerie blue light.

"Heheheheheh—"

A sinister laugh echoed in Qu Kangping's ears as an ethereal black hand pierced through his chest, directly clutching his heart.

"Ah!"

Qu Kangping cried out in pain and hastily pulled a card from the deck.

The card depicted a full moon over two towering peaks, and at the bottom in English was written "The Moon."

A portal of void opened before Qu Kangping.

Both Qu Kangping and Jin Xin were sucked into the portal.

...

"Look, Patrick, what's that? Is it a jellyfish?"

"No, SpongeBob, that's a human."

"Pika?"

"Don't be afraid, Pikachu, they don't bite."

Thud.

Qu Kangping crawled out of the dirt, looked up, and saw several oddly shaped beings. The sky was pitch black, illuminated only by a purple moon.

All around were tents striped in blue and red, with cheerful music floating through the air.

"Where is this?"

Qu Kangping dusted off the dirt from his body and turned to see Jin Xin's lifeless head obediently lying in the pit, rolling his eyes back and foaming at the mouth.

"Oh, welcome to the Dark Moon Circus, my friend."

Silas Dark Moon approached Qu Kangping with tiny steps, only reaching up to Qu Kangping's knees. Along with Dark Moon came a group of clowns, all curiously observing Qu Kangping.

"Wait..." Qu Kangping said in surprise, looking at the palm of his hand, "I can use my talent again, is this the weird world?"

"Um... yes and no, this is the Dark Moon Circus."

"The Dark Moon Circus, I know of you, I've heard about you from Gu Yi."

"Ha, he's one of the most interesting audiences I've ever had," laughed Dark Moon. "Welcome to the Circus, you can enjoy your pleasant time here to the fullest."

"Wait, Mr. Dark Moon. I heard that one can make certain trades here, right? Can you fulfill my wish?"

"Um... of course, we can."

Qu Kangping thought for a moment and then handed the remaining tarot cards to Dark Moon.

"Can these be exchanged for a wish?"

"Oh my? Such good stuff?"

Dark Moon examined the tarot cards in his hands, looking over them fondly and seemingly captivated.

Jin Xin moaned, struggling up from the pit with his jaw, and started cursing at Dark Moon, "You waste, don't even think about getting your hands on my cards."

Dark Moon didn't even glance at Jin Xin.

Jin Xin roared in anger, and suddenly, a palette appeared on his face.

"Someone, get this eyesore out of my sight."

"Beep—"

A clown, whistling, ran out from behind, pulled a spittoon from his pants, and put it over Jin Xin's head.

Jin Xin kept crashing around inside the spittoon, but he couldn't escape it no matter what he did.

Qu Kangping glanced at the spittoon; it had a lotus painted on it, lifelike and quite pleasing to the eye.

"On my turf, you have to follow my rules, idiot."

Dark Moon spread out the tarot cards and counted them, curiously remarking,

"Why are there some cards missing from this deck? Death, The Tower, and also The Moon are gone. Huh? Even The Fool, which is the most crucial, is missing? The Moon was your ticket in, so where did you use the remaining cards?"

"I don't know." Upon hearing this, Qu Kangping blinked, "If a few cards are missing... does that mean I can't make a wish?"
