Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 552: [Worlds Apocalypse Online: Revolution]

Translated by: La0o9

Proofreader: Arya

The Dead Soul Demon King stood in the cold winds, allowing his black flames to burn more intensely bit by bit.

As God’s Might was talking, it had silently lowered its body to enter an attack stance.

It could sense that of the two prey in front of it, one of them was ready to fight while the other had fallen into despair and was ready to die.

God’s Might issued the attack order.

All that’s left is——

One second before it attacked, the Dead Soul Demon King suddenly stopped.

『 Wait a minute, the [Demon King Order] is speaking to him 』the Dead Soul Demon King said.

“What!?” God’s Might exclaimed in shock.

He wasn’t willing to accept that and pulled his weapon, wanting to do it himself.

Without a sound or warning, a sharp black claw that smelled of putrid death had appeared right in front him.

This was one of Dead Soul Demon King’s fingers, no, to be exact, it was a nail on one of its fingers.

The nail was sharp and long like a spear, lightly placed just in front of God’s Might’s forehead.

Dead Soul Demon King’s voice came.

『 You should also stay still, the Order’s directives are absolute, or else… 』

God’s Might didn’t dare to move.

He looked afar.

The mountains around them were now visibly full of demonized people.

They weren’t slowing down at all, instead they started to move here even faster.

An army of 2 million demonized Combatants were quickly approaching the foot of this ice mountain.

The encirclement was about to be completed.

No matter who it was, it was impossible for them to escape from this situation.

God’s Might begrudgingly lowered his weapon.

He glared intensely at Gu Qing Shan, utterly confused as to why the Order still wanted to talk with him.

In front of him, Gu Qing Shan was staring at the void of space in front of his eyes.

The [Origin] UI was letting out a bright color of red as some video footage appeared on it.

The footage was of Gu Qing Shan ever since he entered this world, his actions in every battle so far.

In the first battle, [Surrounded], Gu Qing Shan erased an entire city with one strike.

The second battle, the 600-floor, he free-fell off the side and eliminated every threat in the building.

The third battle, against the icy abyss’ Ice Fiends, a single shot of his gun turned everything to ashes.

The fourth video, going against enemies on the frozen wasteland, he used [Shadow Shift] consecutively to eliminate a squad of 10 in the span of 3 breaths.

A sudden notice popped up above the squad he killed: [Bloodthirst Squad, ranking: 2nd place]

The fifth video didn’t show a battle, but began when he was already inside the divine temple, using nothing but his words to convince 800 demonized people to uninstall [Origin].

After the five videos were over, [Origin]’s voice came again.

[According to battle prowess, among all demonized Combatants in this world, Gu Qing Shan ranks: 9th place]

[According to judging capabilities and combat response strategic thinking, among all demonized Combatants in this world, Gu Qing Shan ranks: 1st place]

[Rebel Gu Qing Shan, as you are a natural-born warrior with top-level battle instincts and strategic abilities, the Order has decided to give you one final chance]

[Give up your resistance and surrender yourself to the Origin of the Demon King, only then will you live]

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

This isn’t right.

There must be a problem.

I know [Origin] very well.

Whether it was this life or the last, [Origin] has always been indifferent and cold, it treats all living beings as ants and insects. There is simply no way it would forgive someone out of compassion.

So why is it making an exception now?

“I really don’t want to fight against this Dead Soul Demon King, because I’ll definitely lose”

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and continued: “Then, for the sake of considering my surrender, please tell me why you decided to give me a chance to live?”

[Origin] responded: [You received your only chance at survival because I require your strategic thinking to capture a certain place]

Gu Qing Shan seriously listened to it and fell into thought.

Seems like [Origin] ran into some trouble.

The various ancient creatures he saw suddenly flashed through his mind.

Right, in this world, [Origin] has at least 2 million demonized under its control, so what can actually go against it besides the life forms left behind by the Old Gods?

But from what I can tell, [Origin] seems to be feeling impatient, as if it was prepared to do this at any price.

To capture that place, it didn’t even mind using a rebel like myself.

It was truly using everything it could think of.

—–but why?

What can cause [Origin] to be this impatient?

Gu Qing Shan’s mind moved.

“War God System” he silently called out to it.

[Ting]!

With a light chime, the light blue UI next to the blood red UI lit up.

[I’m here] the War God System responded.

“I have a question to ask you”

[Please state your question]

“If [Kindling]’s goal was to evolve and become [Origin], what is [Origin]’s goal? What does [Origin] want? Can it still evolve?”

The War God UI replied: [The detailed description of the first three stages of Worlds Apocalypse Online are as follows:]

[First stage: Kindling, the original form, only capable of evolution after gathering enough Soul Points]

[Second stage: Origin, the new-born form, besides Soul Points, it also requires a certain few unique items to evolve further]

[Origin can only spread within the range of 10 to 90 million World Layers, limited by its primitive functions]

[Third stage: once Origin successfully evolves once again, its range will expand to 300 million World Layers, obtaining more powerful functions that almost no one can resist]

[This stage is called Worlds Apocalypse Online: Revolution]

Gu Qing Shan felt surprised.

Capable of spreading in 300 million World Layers!

Together with the Fallen Zones, [Worlds Apocalypse Online] will have taken over more than half of the entire Outer Plane!

It will definitely change the situation of the entire 900 million World Layers.

No wonder it’s called [Revolution].

No wonder it was so desperate!

Gu Qing Shan quickly asked: “Besides Soul Points, what else does [Origin] need to evolve to its Revolution state?”

The System replied: [It requires certain special materials left behind in the 900 million World Layers by the Old Gods. These materials are capable of aiding the evolution of all non-organic life forms]

Gu Qing Shan lightly nodded and silently replied: “I suspect [Origin] has already found where those materials are, but it’s unable to obtain it. That’s why it’s giving me an option”

“For it, whatever strategy I come up with is merely an attempt—– it’s good if it succeeds, and failure means it just gained another subordinate, there’s no loss at all, no wonder…”

It was now that [Origin]’s voice came again: [Gu Qing Shan, tell me your answer. Do you choose to surrender to me or be tortured to death?]

[This will be the last time I ask, you no longer have other paths to choose. Answer me with your most serious attitude!]

Following [Origin]’s declaration, the Dead Soul Demon King once again entered an attack stance.

The waves of demonized people have already completely surrounded the mountain, forming a jet black torrent of people.

They were already starting their climb and will soon arrive here.

Gu Qing Shan looked around once and spoke: “O’ great [Demon King Order], I need one minute to think”

[One minute? You may] [Origin] declared.
