Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 863: Demon Tide Descends

Gu Qing Shan contemplated for a while and couldn’t help but mutter to himself: “It feels like this ability can do more than just that”

[Since I ate your noodles, as payment, I’ll explain to you how to truly use this ability] the bald old man told him.

Gu Qing Shan asked in confusion: “How did you eat that by the way?”

[You can also eat, can’t you?] the bald old man replied.

“But I’m a real person, you’re—–”

The bald old man answered without pause: [I’m a Space-Time cross-mapping consciousness form. This was something the Technological bunch helped me make, so I don’t understand how it works either, but after I’m activated, this consciousness form can eat food to replenish energy, if there’s nothing to eat, I’ll have to go dormant to preserve energy again]

Gu Qing Shan: “...”

The bald old man continued: [The reason I said this is a good ability to get rich with is because it will allow you to directly obtain a few hidden secrets]

“Obtaining secrets?”

[You can make anyone who ate your noodles disclose any 1 truth within their memories]

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised: “That’s right, I feel like I can choose and make a target focus on the memories related to one specific matter each time”

[That is exactly it, regardless of what they see in their memories, when you ask them, your target will unconsciously tell you without realizing it]

Gu Qing Shan slowly understood.

This truly is a useful ability.

There’s no need to force the information out of anybody, as long as I make a bowl of noodles for them to eat, they’ll reveal their secret to me themselves.

Why would I need torture and interrogation if I have such an excellent method to pry information?

No wonder the old man appeared to be excited earlier.

“What did you see just now?” Gu Qing Shan abruptly asked.

[Total defeat] the old man only said two words.

His body became slightly blurred.

The bald old man abruptly regained his senses and asked: [Did you just ask me a question? Don’t do that from now on, I know a lot of secrets, some of which can destroy this world if I accidentally reveal them]

“Understood, but how did you know that I asked you something?” Gu Qing Shan asked curiously.

The bald old man scoffed: [A normal person would naturally not notice what they just said, but as the strongest Combatant of humanity, of course, I can sense it]

[Don’t try and pry into me any further. Your caution and curiosity is commendable, but it’s not appropriate with me]

The old man patted Gu Qing Shan shoulder and continued: [From now on, make sure to keep up practicing the Dance, whenever you feel like you can’t suppress the Demon Dragon’s power any longer, make sure to begin dancing immediately, do not delay it]

“I understand” Gu Qing Shan can only reply.

[Another thing, the Silent Dusk Cloak can make sure that you won’t infect anyone with the Demon Dragon’s blood, so you need to make sure to wear this cloak at all times]

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the cape he was wearing.

It was black, it had a good, really baggy while being so light it was almost unnoticeable, and gave off no sound or light.

This was a good item.

With it, I can at least live together with other living beings.

“I’ll make sure to wear it until I thoroughly absorb all of the Demon Dragon’s power” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The bald old man nodded: [When you’ve managed to absorb a certain amount of the Demon Dragon’s power, you’ll be able to begin practicing the second stage of the Dance]

[I need to go dormant for now, so I’ll see you again when you practice the second stage of the Dance]

After saying so, the old man turned into a spark of light that sank in between Gu Qing Shan’s eyebrows.

Gu Qing Shan stood alone in the darkness for a while.

The [Living Being Sacrificial Dance]

[See you once again]

The Silent Dusk Cloak.

Hm.

I thought I was risking a lot to kill the Demon Dragon but it seems like I actually made a profit in the end.

And the reason why I did this in the first place was...

Gu Qing Shan looked at the [Demon King Order] UI and asked:

“Can you evolve now?”

A line of blood-red text appeared in the void of space in front of his eyes:

[To complete the Quest, you must obtain the Demon Dragon’s body]

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

He patted the round disk under his feet and spoke: “Take me to see the Demon Dragon’s body”

[Understood]

The deep darkness around him receded to either side.

The Demon Dragon’s endlessly gigantic body was still submerged in the Abyssal Tide.

This time, it’s really dead.

“Open the room” Gu Qing Shan ordered.

[Opening] the round disk then reminded him again: [Please be careful not to touch the Abyssal Tide]

After it said so, a layer of invisible ripple scattered from the void of space around the Demon Dragon’s body.

The Demon Dragon’s resting place has been opened.

“[Revolution]” Gu Qing Shan called out.

[I am collecting it] the [Demon King Order] replied.

Gu Qing Shan patiently waited.

A few moments later.

The endlessly gigantic body of the sleeping Demon Dragon vanished like smoke in the wind.

At the same time, lines of blood-red text appeared on the [Revolution] UI:

[Obtained the Demon Dragon’s body]

[You now have two choices:]

[First, reconstruct the Demon Dragon’s body into an Intermediate-level Demon Lord weapon]

[Second, send the Demon Dragon’s body back to the Worlds Apocalypse Online’s composite junkyard, then exchange it for corpse parts that can specifically counteract Abyssal monsters and construct another Demon Lord]

[Note: The body is currently undergoing Abyssal assimilation, which highly increased its value. Regardless of being used directly as a weapon or exchanged, it would yield the best possible result]

Gu Qing Shan went silent briefly.

If I choose the first option, I’ll obtain the help of an entire Demon Dragon.

But there might be a problem if I run into the real Demon Dragon when I enter the true final moment of history.

According to the development of history, the Demon Dragon’s assimilation into the Abyss should have had no interference.

This means, in true history, the Demon Dragon has already fallen to become the Abyssal Demon Dragon.

Would there be a problem if two of him appeared at once?

Since this Demon Dragon’s body was taken from a parallel world, it shouldn’t affect the main world.

Only when an entity within the main world traveled through time to his own past would cause the Law of Space-Time to appear and eliminate one of them.

Yea, it should be like that.

But Gu Qing Shan couldn’t bet on it.

This was a crucial problem that could affect how the entire operation played out, so there mustn’t be any unexpected accidents.

“I choose the second option, create a Demon Lord that can counteract Abyssal monsters” Gu Qing Shan made his choice.

[Understood, exchanging body parts now. The construction will take some time, so please wait patiently] the [Order] replied.

“Can an Intermediate-level Demon Lord defeat an Abyssal monster?” Gu Qing Shan asked curiously.

[It can buy you a bit more time to run away] the [Demon King Order] replied.

“But I remember that the Demon Dragon was able to kill the Abyssal Fate Weaver’s soul’

[If it was only a soul, it would naturally be a lot easier to deal with compared to the real body]

“Fine”

Lines of blood-red text continued to appear on the [Revolution] UI:

[Completed corresponding Quest, preparing to evolve]

[The next stage of Worlds Apocalypse Online: Demon Tide, will soon arrive]

[As you have chosen evolution mode, the Order will not provide new functions for you to use]

[Attention please!]

[When the Demon Tide arrives, there will be a lot of evil entities emerging from the void of space to steal the opportunity to become the Demon King of Order from you]

“Got it, I’ll just deal with whatever comes my way” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The [Order] said nothing else.

[Evolution begins!]

The lines of blood-red text slowly faded.

The [Order] fell silent.

Gu Qing Shan stood still in contemplation for a while.

Everything is going smoothly.

Not only am I quickly becoming stronger, but the [Order] is also evolving at an abnormally fast rate.

After [Demon Tide], the next stage will be [Demon King Ascension]

Soon.

It’s going to be time soon.

When I arrive at the final true moment of history, every terrifying monster hiding behind the scene will also show up.

The Soul Shrieker, the Abyssal Demon Dragon, and the Abyssal Fate Weaver.

They all want to obtain the Heaven sword.

Who the Heaven sword belongs to will be decided at that time.

Can I really win?

As Gu Qing Shan fell into thought, he recalled the Earth sword.

“Old friend, we have to win”

His whispers could be heard from within the darkness.
