Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1197: Approval

Ruined.

A ruined city.

Millions of living beings, massacred.

The only one who remained alive in the vast ruin was a single bewildered young girl.

The descending asteroids were hurriedly avoiding this dead city as if running for their lives.

“No...”

“I said, don’t hurt anyone else, why did...”

The girl’s expression was completely pale, the emotions in her eyes gradually dried up.

The world turned back into countless fine curves and quickly disappeared from Gu Qing Shan’s vision.

Emptiness.

Another world suddenly appeared and received Gu Qing Shan into it.

A tree by the river.

Under its shade.

Gu Qing Shan had returned.

Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li were standing next to him, Ye Fei Li stood facing his gaze straight with her own.

Ye Ru Xi asked with anticipation and nervousness: “You said... that you were the same kind as me?”

“Indeed, can you control your power now?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

A question straight to the heart.

If they aren’t the same kind, how would they ask such a question?

Ye Ru Xi’s eyes lit up.

She hesitantly stated: “Please prove to me that you are my same kind”

Gu Qing Shan signaled to Zhang Ying Hao through his eyes.

“Use your strongest summoning technique, otherwise she would not believe us” he sent his voice.

Zhang Ying Hao tacitly understood and drew a Card from the void of space.

“Don’t worry, I’ll summon the ruler of the Hitman deck”

Zhang Ying Hao sent his voice in return and tossed the Card outward.

Boom!

A resounding impact.

A green-scaled lizard that was several hundred meters tall appeared in front of the trio.

Compared to the last time Gu Qing Shan saw him, he seemed to have changed somehow——

It had become stronger.

「 Ah, little Ying Hao, did you summon me? 」

The green-scaled lizard breathed out a cluster of colorful mist and questioned.

“A friend wanted to see you” Zhang Ying Hao replied.

He, together with Gu Qing Shan and Ye Fei Li, turned to Ye Ru Xi.

Ye Ru Xi looked a bit confused and muttered: “Why so weak?”

She turned directly to Zhang Ying Hao and questioned: “This weak and feeble reptile, is the entity that you can summon?”

The world became silent.

Before the three of them said anything, the green-scaled lizard’s presence abruptly rose.

He seemed to have been angered——-

“Dispel!”

Zhang Ying Hao hurriedly canceled the summon.

With a poof, the green-scaled lizard was forcefully sent back.

How dangerous!

If he had gotten angry, that wouldn’t be a joke anymore.

Zhang Ying Hao wiped the sweat off his forehead and was about to say something when Gu Qing Shan took the opportunity first.

“As you can see” Gu Qing Shan calmly stated, “Our control of power had reached this extreme level of accuracy——- that was the weakest one we can summon”

“Right, indeed, that was the weakest entity that I could summon” Zhang Ying Hao immediately followed up and continued: “We wouldn’t arbitrarily exert extreme power, as you saw before, my summoning had been restrained to the utmost degree, normal people couldn’t possibly achieve that”

——-of course, other people would never be able to achieve that.

The Hitman deck was a branch of a Mysticism Card deck, one that only hitmen could form a covenant with.

Even in the 900 million World Layers, this Card deck was a considerably rare one, combined with how scarcely talented hitmen were, the Card deck was even harder to come across.

Zhang Ying Hao could be considered to be an individual of extraordinary strength in the current 900 million World Layers.

However, compared to Ye Ru Xi...

“So that was how it was. I spent 10 years learning how to control my powers, so it is highly unusual for me to lose control of my power nowadays——- but even so, I still couldn’t finely control the power I summon to become as weak as you displayed”

Ye Ru Xi casually stated.

Crack.

Zhang Ying Hao could hear his own heart, breaking.

“Indeed, it wasn’t easy to reach my current level. To be exact, it took me 20 years” he calmly replied.

It took me 20 years to reach this level of strength.

Zhang Ying Hao silently told himself.

“So weak, so feeble, so unassuming that others would ever pay attention to you, how I admire the level you have reached” Ye Ru Xi displayed a look of determination: “I believe that with the passage of time, I would eventually reach your same level and grasp a full control of my abilities”

Zhang Ying Hao displayed an encouraging smile and replied with the tone of an experienced senior: “You have a long way to go, do your best”

“Hm, I will definitely follow your example” Ye Ru Xi nodded.

Her gaze towards Zhang Ying Hao now carried a genuine sense of admiration.

Gu Qing Shan: “...”

Ye Fei Li: “...”

The two of them exchanged glances.

——for somebody to be emotionally battered to this degree and could still retain an act full of seniority without changing his expression.

As expected of a professional——-

Hitman.

Gu Qing Shan pondered for a bit, then directly told her: “In truth, our strength had also been suppressed by a considerable degree as we entered this world. If you’ve seen me fight, you should have been able to sense part of that”

Silently listening to him Ye Ru Xi finally appeared relaxed.

It wasn’t just the summoned lizard, but Gu Qing Shan’s statement that fully convinced her.

He managed to stop the giant ape’s attack with a single strike.

How could she not notice that he couldn’t completely exert his swordsmanship at the time?

At the moment he wielded his sword, I could instantly sense a terrific chill.

As if the life and death of all living beings lay on the blade of his sword, waiting to be decided by his single thought.

—–and also.

He could transform into an apocalyptic monster and survive the explosion of 6 nuclear bombs without being discovered by anyone.

Who could possibly do such a thing in this world?

This had already surpassed my entire 27 years of living experience.

Ye Ru Xi silently nodded and trusted them a bit more.

“Good, then let us get into official business” Gu Qing Shan sternly said, “Right now, we need to think of a way to leave this world. Otherwise, if the carriers of [Order] or apocalyptic monster discover you again, the same situation from before will repeat itself”

Ye Ru Xi was stunned.

The same situation from before...

No matter how much I tried to blend into society, to display my worth, to work for the sake of this world.

They were willing to sacrifice over a million lives just to kill me!

Ye Ru Xi took a deep breath.

She turned to the three men in front of her.

It’s no longer the same.

Right now, I have people of my same kind.

“How should we leave now?” Ye Ru Xi lightly asked.

Gu Qing Shan felt assured and answered: “I’m not sure either. I don’t know a lot about your world, we will need a lot more information, perhaps a bit of resource and technology as well...”

“Resources and technology?” Ye Ru Xi asked doubtfully.

Zhang Ying Hao chimed in: “Indeed, even without his supernatural abilities, he would still be a scientist——- one that commands science far surpassing this world, which can help us safely depart”

Ye Ru Xi delightfully asked: “A scientist? I would never have thought, then what about you?”

“Me? I’m a hitman, an assassin, I own a hitman guild” Zhang Ying Hao replied.

“You truly are impressive” Ye Ru Xi exclaimed.

She then turned to Ye Fei Li.

Ye Fei Li shrugged and answered: “I’m the number one ranking gamer in the world”

“Number one ranking gamer?”

“That’s right, what do you usually play? RPG? Real-Time Strategy? Or casual games?” Ye Fei Li excitedly asked.

“I don’t play games”

Both of them went silent.

This conversation was stopped here.

“Alright” Gu Qing Shan cut in, “While no one had discovered us, let’s search this city to see if we can find anything useful. At the same time, I want to learn a bit more about this world’s history, trends of social upheaval, the direction of scientific development, space travel research results, as well as the current distribution and usage of resources”

The four of them turned to the ruins of the city.

“What are you planning?” Zhang Ying Hao asked.

“Space is vast, and it doesn’t have such a thing as nuclear weapons, it would become our home field” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li both nodded.

When it came to technology, Gu Qing Shan’s expertise was second to none.

Everything that Ye Ru Xi had come into contact with today were things that she had never seen before, so she was in a good mood as she answered: “Although all traces of living beings have been erased from this city, I know of a few research centers that should still have usable technology”

“Let’s seize our time, some unknown variables might be introduced very soon, we need to set out now” Gu Qing Shan stated.

“Hm, let’s go” Ye Ru Xi replied.

...

In the same world.

At another location.

A distant oceanic city.

Under the cover of night, two figures suddenly appeared.

The Raging Flame Traveler’s burning chains illuminated their surroundings.

The Soul Shrieker stood still for a while in the darkness and examined the [Chaos]’s prompt.

『 It seems we will need to find another Deity of [Chaos] in this world 』the Soul Shrieker’s female voice said.

「 Our enemy arrived an hour before us——— they spent a lot less time compared to us in the bar 」the Raging Flame Traveler commented.

「『 We should probably hurry up, perhaps, we might be able to eliminate them all right here 」』

The Soul Shrieker exuded a solid sense of killing intent as it said that.

The Raging Flame Traveler paused for a brief moment, then replied: 「 That is a good choice, although our strength had been suppressed, all of our supernatural abilities have been fully unsealed 」

『「 Indeed. With your great power from the Age of Immemorial and my divine power, it should be quite easy to get rid of a few mortals whose powers are also being suppressed 』」the Soul Shrieker grinned.

「『 Let us end the Apotheotic Combat right in this place 」』
