Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1312 - Mission change

Chapter 1312: Mission change

In front of Gu Qing Shan.

The village had already been erased from the face of the earth.

Gu Qing Shan sheathed his sword.

According to known intel, a Sealed rank Apocalypse had manifested in the Gloom Galaxy, so a large number of Combatants had been dispatched to various worlds within this galaxy, preparing to either destroy or seal this Apocalypse away.

He took out his ID card and lightly pressed it.

A spark of light emerged from the ID card, manifesting a line of text in the air:

[Hitman codename Dragon King of Atrocity Jail, your mission is to search the Gloomy Forest world for any apocalyptic monsters and exterminate them]

[This is a free combat mission, please try to kill as many monsters as possible]

Doesn’t sound too hard.

But if I want to rely on this mission to be promoted, I’ll have to put up a good display.

Gu Qing Shan silently pondered, then raised his hand and clenched.

—-[Blessing of past worlds]!

This was his recognition, as well as his method to communicate with worlds.

Through this method, this world should be able to sense him, then it would arrive to communicate and cooperate with him to triumph against the Apocalypse together!

Gu Qing Shan silently waited.

A few moments later.

No supernatural phenomena, and no whispers.

While Gu Qing Shan was surprised, his expression changed.

An intense wave of yellow sand was blown into the air, caught by the strong wind, and manifested an insane tornado of sand.

In an instant, the tornado had already arrived to swallow him up.

With sweeping sands covering the sky above, Gu Qing Shan found his surroundings becoming dark.

——what exactly is going on?

I was trying to summon the will of the world, so why did it not arrive and instead drew the Apocalypse’s attention?

He stood in the middle of the sandstorm while wielding his sword, unmoving.

A second later, lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[The system was also unable to sense the existence of the will of the world]

[The following conclusion has been drawn: the will of the world is dead]

[Following this, each of your summon will draw an attack from the Apocalypse]

[The Final Sandstorm had sensed you]

[The second destruction shall now begin]

Gu Qing Shan froze, then felt a chill rising up his back.

This can’t be right.

According to the mission intel, this should have been just a massive Sealed rank Apocalypse.

How could an Apocalypse of this level be capable of erasing the will of the world right away?

Many of the worlds that had been completely ravaged by the Apocalypses would still have their will remaining.

——now that I think about it, I’ve never actually seen an Apocalypse capable of erasing the will of a world right away.

Almost like...

Some shadows silently began to spread within his mind.

However, I need to deal with this first before anything else.

Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath, wielded both the twin swords Heaven and Earth, then silently waited inside the intense sandstorm.

A second later.

From the intense sandstorm, a portion of the sand gathered to form a cavalry knight in full armor on his horse.

“I have awakened from deep inside the Apocalypse, here to lead a soul into eternal slumber”

The knight blankly declared.

Gu Qing Shan stood still with his sword, silently sensing the other party’s power fluctuations.

Compared to the soldier from before, this cavalry knight was several stages stronger.

Gu Qing Shan’s eye twitched, then asked: “Are you alive or dead?”

The cavalry knight pointed his sword towards Gu Qing Shan and replied:

“When the Apocalypse strips you of everything, you will realize that both life and death are nothing but laughable lies, just like the defenses you rely upon”

As he spoke, Gu Qing Shan suddenly looked down.

The leather armor granted to him by the Hitman Guild instantly crumbled into fine sand that was scattered away by the wind.

What!!!?

Gu Qing Shan’s expression changed.

This leather armor was supposed to be a high-tiered Hitman defensive item, it should have been able to last me through an entire war without worrying about defending myself.

But a single statement from him caused this leather armor to crumble into sand and disappear.

——-no, this power definitely does not belong to a mere Sealed rank Apocalypse.

Gu Qing Shan’s heart was heavy.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[The Final Sandstorm had corroded a defensive item you’re wearing]

[Attention, the moment you lost your defenses, the battle had begun!]

The knight urged his horse and slowly accelerated.

He reached his top speed almost immediately——-

Wielding his sword, the cavalry knight relied on the speed of his horse to rush towards Gu Qing Shan as a blurred image!

Too fast, I can’t see him!

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze became sharp, took a single step forward, and met the other party with his sword.

The knight was fast, but Gu Qing Shan’s sword was faster!

Both swords clashed.

Klang!

A deafening noise rang out as the Earth sword blocked the knight’s sword.

“Yah!”

Gu Qing Shan shouted as he sent both the knight and his horse flying into the air.

Offense and defense had been switched!

In an instant, Gu Qing Shan pursued them like a shadow, the Heaven sword in his other hand drawing a cold gleaming arc.

The knight had no choice but to wield the sword with both hands to prevent Gu Qing Shan’s first strike.

Their swords crossed again, but without waiting for the knight to react, the stronger second strike had already slashed forward——

Followed by the third.

While it seemed slow, everything actually happened in just the blink of an eye.

All sword techniques, all tactics, none of it was better than pure speed.

Every next strike more powerful than the last, every following strike stronger than the previous one, the three consecutive slashes in the air had cut down both the knight and his horse.

Boom!!!

Gu Qing Shan’s enemy heavily crashed into the ground.

The horse only managed to neigh a single time before turning back into sand and disappeared.

The knight still managed to prop himself up and stared straight at Gu Qing Shan.

“What kind of swordsmanship is this?” he asked.

“Despairing Rise, the defending sword” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“A great technique” the knight praised.

“Of course it is, if you’re willing to let go of the Apocalypse, I’ll teach you” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The knight fell silent.

His figure slowly flaked off into pieces of sand, scattering into the wind.

“What exactly are you?” Gu Qing Shan asked with a heavy tone.

The knight didn’t answer him and muttered in a low voice: “Life is... how ridiculous”

He thoroughly disappeared into sand and faded away from Gu Qing Shan’s sight.

The sandstorm that surrounded Gu Qing Shan slowly calmed down.

A line of glowing text appeared in the void:

[The Apocalypse’s second destruction towards you has failed]

Gu Qing Shan was a bit confused, unable to help himself asking: “What kind of Apocalypse is this?”

The War God UI replied: [There isn’t enough information, the only thing currently known is that it’s a sandstorm-related Apocalypse. For now, it is the same type as the Final Sandstorm]

“For now? Tell me clearer”

[The Final Sandstorm is an Unsolvable Apocalypse, but it is capable of growth, no one can be sure to which degree it would grow]

Unsolvable, capable of growth.

Gu Qing Shan’s heart sank.

This is completely different from Void City’s estimations.

Perhaps they’ve only just come into contact with this Apocalypse and had only fought easy battles that Void City judged this to be a Sealed Apocalypse.

——in reality, it’s not common knowledge that there are four ranks of Apocalypses.

Because the fourth rank ‘Unfathomable’, is only known to exist by very few people, and not a single person had ever seen one.

Normally, the first three ranks of Apocalypses represented the majority of Apocalypses seen so far.

Against a Sealed Apocalypse, everyone can still attempt to defeat it.

Against an Unsolvable Apocalypse, the only thing anyone can do is salvage as many resources and lives as possible while retreating in combat, hoping for a thin ray of hope to survive.

Unlivable Apocalypses...

According to historical records, no one had ever managed to survive this kind of Apocalypse.

This time, the Apocalypse we’re facing is sure to be Unsolvable, but can still grow, I really can’t help but feel tense.

——not to mention, the will of this world had already been erased.

Gu Qing Shan’s expression was dim, his thoughts tossing and turning.

Suddenly, he noticed something and hurriedly took out his ID card.

A screen of light was projected from the ID card to display the newest notification:

[Attention all participants of the mission]

[The Apocalypse over Gloom Galaxy has been reevaluated, adjusting its ranking from Sealed to Unsolvable]

[The mission allotted to each individual had been changed, please check your own ID cards for updated missions]

Gu Qing Shan tapped his ID card.

The missions issued to him appeared:

[Hitman codename Dragon King of Atrocity Jail, please head to Gloom Fire Town 26,000km Northward of your position and participate in the town defense mission]

After double-checking, Gu Qing Shan put his ID card away.

His heart sank further.

——-the free combat mission has been changed into a town defense mission.

The Apocalypse is growing too quickly, and there is too little information, I have no idea how to deal with it just yet.

Will it keep growing to become an Unlivable Apocalypse?

Gazing North, Gu Qing Shan stayed silent for a few moments.

Unsolvable.

This means it cannot be resolved no matter what.

—–I wonder how many would be able to survive in this Unsolvable Apocalypse.

After a bit of thought, Gu Qing Shan took out a colorful rooster.
