Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1315: Killing and questioning

In front of the town’s ruins.

Gu Qing Shan and Crow were chatting.

Suddenly, both of their ID cards vibrated.

[Attention please]

[Emergency, Hitman Curt Death Silver Crow and Hitman Dragon King of Atrocity Jail, please proceed to the nearest settlement, Blue Mountain city, and aid them in preventing the Apocalypse’s invasion]

Gu Qing Shan and Crow exchanged glances.

Crow drew his rapier: “Let me perform an innocuous treatment on this town”

Glittering light of flames began to manifest around the rapier, when Crow lightly flicked it forward, the flames all gathered at the tip of the rapier and turned into a flaming bird that flew out.

Like a comet, the flaming bird flew into the town and disappeared without a trace.

A moment of silence.

Boom——

With a resounding explosion, a pillar of flames enveloped the entire town.

Intense shockwaves scattered in every direction, causing even large trees to break in half horizontally.

Gu Qing Shan cupped his hand above his eyes, gazing at the intense flames while ignoring the shockwaves that struck him.

“It’s useless, I also performed a treatment like this to another town, but when the Apocalypse wanted to manifest, it still manifested” Gu Qing Shan said.

Crow withdrew his rapier and pondered: “If what you said is true, the scouting army didn’t really study this Apocalypse thoroughly at all——– what a bunch of idiots”

Gu Qing Shan silently sighed: “This one is quite unusual. I’ve ran into the Apocalypse several times already, but still don’t understand what’s going on here”

At this point, the flames died down.

The entire town had been burnt to a crisp.

Standing in front of the ruins, Crow said as he pondered: “Speaking of which, I haven’t run into the Apocalypse ever since I arrived in this world—– I’ve also accepted quite a few missions to fight against Apocalypses these past few years, it would be great if I can see exactly what’s going on”

As soon as he said that.

Boundless yellow sand abruptly manifested from the ruined town and rose to the sky.

In an instant.

A howling tornado suddenly manifested and washed through the entire area thoroughly.

It picked up the yellow sand, obscuring the sky, and directly surrounded both Gu Qing Shan and Crow.

The two of them were shocked.

“The Apocalypse you wanted is here” Gu Qing Shan commented.

“It was rhetorical” Crow drew his rapier again, observing the surrounding sandstorm.

Gu Qing Shan also drew the Earth sword from the void of space, getting ready to fight.

Two lines of glowing text had already appeared in front of his vision:

[A newcomer had come into contact with this Apocalypse for the first time, thus the difficulty of your fourth destruction has been lowered]

[The battle is about to begin, prepare yourselves]

Two figures manifested one after another from the sandstorm.

A caster wearing a red robe, and a soldier wielding a spear and shield.

The soldier faced the two of them.

While the caster appeared behind them.

“That caster looks very strong, leave him to me” Crow quickly said.

He turned around and faced the red-robed spellcaster.

“No, you’re facing it the first time, so the one you have to face is that soldier” Gu Qing Shan said.

Crow turned his head to observe the soldier.

The soldier was giving off a considerably weaker power fluctuation compared to the red-robed caster.

“I’ll leave these riff-raffs for you to train with, I want to face this caster to see what I can infer about the Apocalypse from him” Crow replied.

Having no arguments against that, Gu Qing Shan pointed his sword at the soldier.

At this point, the red-robed caster’s gaze turned to Gu Qing Shan and said: “Fiend, I’m your opponent”

“Take a look—— he clearly wants to fight me” Gu Qing Shan told Crow.

“Don’t worry about it, I’ll kill him for you” Crow insisted.

While the two of them chatted, the soldier turned to Crow and spoke: “Avian, I’m your opponent”

It was now that Crow felt a bit interested and asked in surprise: “You can tell that I’m an Avian?”

The soldier scoffed: “That’s right, birdman, you will die under my spear”

Silence.

“Dragon King of Atrocity Jail”

“Hm?

“Let’s change, I’m going to kill that foul-mouthed soldier”

“Alright”

The two of them switched.

Pure killing intent rose from Crow’s body.

He pointed his rapier towards the soldier and muttered: “Facing me is facing death itself, have you prepared?”

Without saying a word, the soldier rushed at him.

Crow raised his rapier and lightly swung.

Boom!

In an intense explosion, the soldier, as well as his shield and spear, exploded into a pillar of sky-high flames.

“Garbage, you’re lucky you get to die that quickly while badmouthing me” Crow scoffed.

On the other side.

Gu Qing Shan faced the red-robed caster and slowly took each step forward as he wielded his sword.

“What kind of entity are you exactly?” he questioned as he walked forward.

The red-robed caster’s sleeves were billowing as two purple glowing clusters of magic manifested in his hands.

“You want to know? Defeat me first!”

The caster’s hands quickly closed together, causing the glowing purple magic to become a rapidly oscillating ball of light.

His spell had been prepared.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head: “If you have some troubles, you can actually just tell me, we don’t really have to keep killing one another to——”

“Die!” the red-robed caster shouted out loud and shot the purple ball of light towards Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan sighed and stood without moving.

The purple ray ripped through the void of space, drawing a black path as it flew forward and reached Gu Qing Shan in the blink of an eye.

Gu Qing Shan continued to stand still.

He simply——

Disappeared abruptly.

Divine Skill, [Shadow Shift]!

Where he originally stood, the red-robed caster suddenly appeared.

Now that the ray was a hair away from striking him, the red-robed caster had no chance to defend himself in any way.

Bam!

With a heavy noise, the ray of light shot into its caster’s body and began destroying everything.

“Aaaargh!”

The red-robed caster collapsed to his knee, roaring in pain.

He had been heavily injured.

Gu Qing Shan stood at his original position, advising him from a distance: “It’s really no fun to fight, how about we talk a little bit?”

The red-robed caster continued to breathe heavily while chanting an incantation and arranging a barrier of light.

“I underestimated you, now that I have the purple death mystic shield to protect me, you’re going to die!”

The red-robed caster declared with a vicious expression.

Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan sighed.

Can’t communicate at all.

Then the only choice is...

Gu Qing Shan spoke to the void of space: “Switch with him”

A low ‘wu wu’ sound came from the void of space, then—–

The red-robed caster disappeared again, this time reappearing in front of Gu Qing Shan with his hand grasping the caster’s neck.

The void of space inside the light barrier only moved slightly before returning to normal.

Jade gourd pendant Adorable had used Divine Skill, [Shadow Shift] once.

It had directly taken the caster from inside his barrier!

Gu Qing Shan gripped the red-robed caster’s neck.

“Don’t move, if you move, you die”

Four swords appeared from the void of space, two of which were propped on the caster’s neck, one at his chest, and the last at his waist.

Gu Qing Shan glanced down at where the Earth sword was pointing, then looked back up: “Tell me what you know about the Apocalypse, then I’ll let you go”

The red-robed caster was trembling.

Even without doing much, he has already defeated me.

What inconceivable combat prowess!

Could it be...

The red-robed caster’s eyes displayed fear.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t know what he was thinking but was immediately able to grasp his emotions.

Gu Qing Shan’s mind turned a bit, slowly calmed his tone, and spoke gently: “I hold control over the dead and resurrection, as long as you tell me who you are, I shall rescue you from within the Apocalypse”

“I want you to swear” the red-robed caster quickly spoke with a low voice.

“Naturally”

Gu Qing Shan could feel the situation under his control and vowed: “I hereby swear, as long as——-”

Before he even finished his words, the red-robed caster in his grasp started crumbling into fine sand and scattering to the wind.

The red-robed caster’s expression was filled with fear and tried to call out: “Save...me...”

At the very last moment, his expression suddenly became blank, and started speaking in a frigid tone:

“Life and Death are only representations of the truth, but living beings fall to it all the same”

Saying that statement, the red-robed caster completely disappeared into the sandstorm and faded away.

The howling sandstorm once again disappeared without a trace.

Gu Qing Shan stood still, shocked.

Crow was just a bit further away from him, silently watching it all.

“Ah—– so not even God Almighty can do anything about it?” Crow muttered.

Although he was clearly saying that in a joking tone, neither he nor Gu Qing Shan were smiling.

“At the very end, I could sense that caster changing into someone else” Gu Qing Shan whispered.

“You’re right, I also felt that” Crow agreed.

“Have you ever seen this kind of Apocalypse?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Never. In reality, I’m quite nervous about this one now” Crow replied.

This caster was a part of the Apocalypse.

But he still had his own thoughts and will.

At the very last moment, before he disappeared, he was replaced by another entity, declaring something completely different.

How truly...

Eerie.

“Let’s go, the mission told us to go help a place called Blue Mountain city. We should head there immediately, perhaps we’d get more information” Gu Qing Shan said.

Crow shrugged: “Who knows, we haven’t run into any large battles—— perhaps by the time we reached Blue Mountain city, everything would have already been over”

Gu Qing Shan glanced at him, then said: “Don’t jinx it, you already did it once just now”

Crow was indifferent: “I’m just saying”

When the two of them were about to set off, their ID cards vibrated again.

A voice came from the ID card:

[Attention please]

[Blue Mountain city had been destroyed by the Apocalypse]

The two of them were stunned.

Crow’s expression slowly became serious.

“Blue Mountain city had five groups of Professionists protecting it, I even know two Titled Combatants being stationed there. What the hell, did they both die?” he muttered.

The two of them exchanged glances.

If not for this miniature sandstorm stalling them, the two of them might have already reached Blue Mountain city.

——in that case, what would have happened?

Gu Qing Shan watched over the ruins of the town once again and muttered: “What exactly is this? And why is it so powerful?”
