Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1055: War God And Demon King

[The God of Life shall hand the Order Card over to the Soul Shrieker. After this is accomplished, the Soul Shrieker must come up with a way to allow the God of Life to escape this deathly situation, otherwise, the Soul Shrieker will lose its life together with the God of Life]

—–the God of Life didn’t hand the [Order] to the Soul Shrieker, but to Gu Qing Shan.

Which meant that it was impossible for the second half of the Divine covenant to activate.

On the battlefield, both Deities roared in fury and despair.

They realized that they had been tricked!

——–tricked by a few insignificant insects!

But it was now too late, within this situation of certain death, they no longer had the leisure to do anything but fight against the black coffins entities for their lives.

...

At another location.

A certain place within the space vortex.

A black umbrella and a flower umbrella rested next to one another.

This place was far enough from the battlefield that the group had room to catch their breaths.

Zhang Ying Hao lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and muttered to himself:

“I’ve been through so many unimaginable situations of life and death that others can’t even comprehend, but never have I thought the most dangerous one wouldn’t be for a kill, but instead for a fraud”

Ye Fei Li took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat and asked Gu Qing Shan: “Did you get it?”

“Got it”

Gu Qing Shan took out a Card for everyone to observe.

The Card was completely empty and depicted nothing, but the background was filled with countless stars.

“So, we succeeded?” Laura asked.

“Yes” Gu Qing Shan nodded, “This Card is the only hope of the 900 million World Layers, and we’ve finally obtained it”

Lines of glowing text had appeared and stayed on the UI in front of his eyes for a while.

Because he was in a rush to escape, he didn’t have time to read. Now that they had taken a considerable distance from the battlefield, Gu Qing Shan turned to read these lines of text.

[You’ve obtained the Unique Card: Human Regiment (Order)]

[This Card has no grade]

[This Card was created with the ‘Worlds Apocalypse Online: Human Regiment’ Order as its foundation]

[Attention: The core of this Card had gone missing; you will need to find its core in order to reactivate it]

Gu Qing Shan felt moved.

Following this, I only need the Angel of Condemnation Card and her coin to have all three coins in my hands.

At that point, I’ll travel back in time to the day of the Spire Association’s fall to save lady Darksea.

That would also be the time for [Worlds Apocalypse Online: Human Regiment] to descend!

[Order] will reawaken and fight against [Chaos], pulling the 900 million World Layers back from the verge of destruction.

——–I wonder how Su Xue Er and Ning Yue Chan are doing on their side and if they managed to retrieve the Card and coin.

While he was thinking, Boss suddenly tapped his shoulder.

“What is it?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Boss said: “Although we managed to con the [Order] Card from the hands of the two Deities—–”

“Not ‘conned’, retrieved” Gu Qing Shan corrected him.

Xiu!

A loud cry of approval and agreement sounded from the void of space.

“Fine, retrieved the [Order] Card” Boss speechlessly corrected himself, “But did you notice that this situation was one that no one had ever seen before?”

Gu Qing Shan turned his eyes towards the faraway space vortex.

Everyone turned that direction as well.

The dark, eerie presence still remained in that place, where countless black coffins continued to descend.

Almost right away, everyone instinctively retreated a bit further.

——-some sort of mystical power fluctuation was permeating through the space vortex.

This fluctuation had exceeded that of the God of Life.

They managed to calm down a bit from fleeing far enough, but as soon as they sensed this fluctuation, everyone shivered again.

Laura was almost unable to stand up straight.

Ye Fei Li and Zhang Ying Hao were also at their limits, only forcing themselves to remain still at this point.

Comparatively, Gu Qing Shan and Boss were a lot better.

“An entity a lot stronger than a Deity has awakened” Boss muttered.

“But what exactly are these black coffins?” Ye Fei Li couldn’t help but question.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I’m not sure, the God of Life seemed to have known about these black coffins even before this, so...”

He turned to Boss and slowly understood what he was trying to say.

“You want to go back and take a look?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“For countless years, there are very few things that even I do not recognize, but one of those secrets is right in front of us, we need to take a look and observe what it exactly is” Boss told him.

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then said: “Laura, give me a mirror world”

Laura then took out a large mirror that was as tall as two people.

Gu Qing Shan continued: “There won’t be any combat from this point on, and scouting is dangerous with too many people. Laura, Ying Hao, and Fei Li, you should enter the mirror world and rest up, for now, I’ll be moving with Boss in close vicinity to take a look”

“Sure” Zhang Ying Hao answered immediately, “I’m shivering so much I can barely hold onto the umbrella, the two of you going alone would also make it convenient for retreating”

Since he had already said so much, Ye Fei Li and Laura also had no objections.

The three of them entered the mirror.

Gu Qing Shan quickly put the mirror away, checked his own black umbrella, and told Boss: “Let’s go” historical

All of a sudden.

The silent [Demon King Order] abruptly lit up.

Lines of blood red text appeared on the [Demon King Order]’s UI.

[Discovered Order Card]

[This Card was constructed from Order: Human Regiment, but is missing the corresponding Order core]

[This Card can contribute ample material to summon the final Demon King]

[Preparing to consume Soul Points to complete this summoning]

[The Demon King will descend!]

Gu Qing Shan’s expression changed and shouted: “I forbid you from touching this Card!”

Blood-red text slowly appeared on the [Demon King Order]:

[Rejection nullified. this Order’s task is to summon the Demon into this reality to reconstruct it into one of the Demon King Order]

[Preparations begin!]

Gu Qing Shan looked at the [Demon King Order]’s UI.

Countless symbols that he didn’t understand were quickly scrolling across it.

—–quite obviously, it was really attempting to summon the Demon King!

“You piece of shit, I saved your life” Gu Qing Shan gritted his teeth.

The [Demon King Order] responded: [Apologies, only the descent of the Demon King can fight against Chaos]

Gu Qing Shan froze.

Damn it, this [Demon King Order] is actually trying to embezzle my Card and Soul Points!

“Good for you” Gu Qing Shan begrudgingly said: “War God UI—–”

[I’m here]

The War God UI lit up.

Without waiting for Gu Qing Shan to say anything, a line of glowing text had appeared on the War God UI:

[Monopolizing Soul Points!]

After a brief moment, a small change occurred in the two UIs in front of Gu Qing Shan’s eyes.

The amount of remaining Soul Points displayed on the War God UI was still [4,013,796/600]

While all the Soul Points on the [Demon King Order] had vanished, displaying as [0/600]

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought briefly.

——after killing the Occultism spirit, I obtained 5 million Soul Points, after using some of it, I now have just a bit over 4 million left.

An [Order] required Soul Points to activate any functions or perform any actions.

Now that the War God UI had withdrawn all the Soul Points away, regardless of what the [Demon King Order] wanted to do, it would now be impossible.

The bunch of blood-red symbols on the [Demon King Order] slowly faded away one chunk at a time.

A line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[Through monopolization, this amount of a bit over 4 million Soul Points will remain in Gu Qing Shan’s personal ownership and usage, under no circumstances shall there be any exceptions]

Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.

Another line of text appeared below that:

[To accomplish monopolization, the War God UI had exerted considerable effort, thus deducting 1000 Soul Points as labor fees]

[Ding-ding]!

Gu Qing Shan watched as 1000 Soul Points were deducted from his monopolized Soul Points.

“Hey... didn’t you just say it was monopolized?” Gu Qing Shan asked in confusion.

The War God UI paused briefly before answering him: [The War God UI is Gu Qing Shan’s personal belonging; thus it is able to utilize these Soul Points]

[Question had been answered, thank you for 200 Soul Points]

Another 200 of Gu Qing Shan’s remaining Soul Points that were displayed on the War God UI disappeared.

Gu Qing Shan: “...”

At this point, another line of blood-red text appeared on the [Demon King Order] as well:

[Emergency exercise completed]

[Please do not be alarmed, that was only an emergency exercise conducted in preparation for unique situations, it will not consume any of the host’s Soul Points]

Gu Qing Shan: “...”

He was completely speechless as he stared at the two UIs in front of him.

One stays completely silent, waiting for the first opportunity it had to take my [Order] Card and Soul Points for its own goal.

Another claims itself to be my personal belonging while openly chipping away at my Soul Points reserve day by day.

I feel so tired right now.

Boss appeared surprised: “Why did your complexion suddenly turn so bad?”

“It’s just a small issue, I resolved it, let’s go!” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“Go!”

The two of them grabbed the black umbrella and once again flew towards the sphere of black coffins.
