Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 789: Unseen Death

Translator: La0o9 Editor: La0o9

The secondary defense subsystem world.

The large-scale war alarm system was spread out all over the world, dying the sky in crimson light.

Because the entire world was in a state of war, the sound of the alarm hadn’t stopped even once.

Despite this sound being an ear-piercingly high-pitched and loud, it was being overshadowed by a smaller but more constant sound of chewing.

It was the sound of the monsters chewing everything they could.

The Desolate monsters were slowly but surely advancing forward.

Over 2/3rd of the world had already fallen, the only place left still standing was the core defense point of this world.

This was a hard and slow battle.

Fortunately for the Desolate monsters, they had ample experience with wars like this. They would alternate between attack and defense, calmly and orderly coordinating organized attacks without appearing impatient.

The Lord of Desolation and its strongest subordinates hadn’t appeared on the battlefield at all.

They were resting at the backline, silently waiting for the decisive battle.

——-they have already destroyed over 18,800 subsystems, among which there were 647 secondary defense subsystems of the same level as this one.

That was why they knew very clearly how to win this war with the least amount of casualties.

They can simply follow every single step of what was already found out from long ago to easily obtain victory.

——but they didn’t know that right above them, a person was watching over everything.

Gu Qing Shan.

Still in a concealed state, he had just arrived in this world.

“A technological world… but it’s a bit strange…”

Gu Qing Shan stared closely at the battle mechs that were wrestling against the horde of monsters and muttered.

He was unable to tell for sure, so he descended a bit lower and entered the battlefield.

At this point, over a dozen Desolate monsters charged at once and pushed one of the battle mechs to the ground, ferociously ripping it apart.

The battle mech simply emitted a type of constant shockwave attack to destroy its nearest enemy.

Against so many monsters, it was unable to put up much of a fight before being thoroughly destroyed.

The monsters continued to head towards the next battle mech.

It was now that Gu Qing Shan came closer and checked the wrecked mech.

He carefully observed it, then used the frost Blade to slice along the broken portion of the mech.

Sha——-

Blood began to flow out, there were even severed red muscles where he cut.

Gu Qing Shan put his sword away and nodded.

He finally understood the strange feeling from before.

These weren’t regular metallic mechs.

They were lifeform-based weapons, their bodies were structured in the same way that a human body would be, if they become too heavily wounded, they could even bleed.

Gu Qing Shan once again took flight and observed from above.

This entire area was made from a metal alloy, but every metallic structure was being swarmed by a type of flying ant-shaped small Desolate monster, slowly eating through them.

Some of the structures would occasionally retaliate with powerful attacks that would wipe out a huge chunk of the horde of flying ants.

At times like these, the flying ants would retreat and let more powerful Desolate monsters like the 6-legged Winged Snake go in front to completely destroy the artillery of these structures.

And then the battle mechs would come out to go into close combat with their enemies.

The Desolate monsters would also respond in kind.

The battle would instantly enter its most intense close combat phase.

After struggling for some time, thanks to their advantage of number and strength, the Desolate monsters would manage to invade that area of the battlefield and continue moving forward.

By repeating this indefinitely, the monsters would take over more and more areas.

Gu Qing Shan stared blankly at what was happening on the battlefield.

——-you call this war?

He shook his head and glanced at the War God UI.

Some notifications had popped up on the UI.

[The War God System has taken over the controls of this world’s defense system]

[Detected this world’s central defensive processor]

[Please move South East 1200km and prepare to take control of the defense system]

Reading through, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help asking: “You can take over this entire world’s control system?”

[Ting]!

The War God System replied: [Not me, but you. You are a human so you naturally have the authority to take over the defense system]

“Ah, and here I thought you had that much power” Gu Qing Shan commented.

The War God System ignored him.

Gu Qing Shan carefully counted the concealment time he had left and began to head South East.

The War God System’s voice came again: [Wait]

“What is it?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[You still have a lot of concealment time left, please collect a bit more Soul Points before heading towards the central defensive processor] the War God System said.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I can’t even scratch the high-ranked monsters”

[Kill the soldiers] the War God System replied.

Gu Qing Shan hesitated for only the blink of an eye before replying: “Alright, keep track of time for me. Remind me again when time is about to run out”

[Understood] the War God System answered.

Gu Qing Shan flew into the battlefield and swung his frost Blade.

A cold gleam flashed.

A Desolate soldier was easily bisected.

A notification popped up on the War God UI.

[You killed a Desolate Spiked Beast, Soul Points +40,000]

[The System has taken 39,995 Soul Points]

[Remaining Soul Points: 27/600]

Gu Qing Shan glanced over and attacked another monster.

The entire battlefield was about several thousand miles long, with intense battles everywhere, thanks to his concealment and the fact that Gu Qing Shan didn’t cause too much commotion while constantly changing his position, his actions weren’t noticed by the Desolate race.

His Soul Points quickly increased.

[Soul Points +1]

[Soul Points +3]

[Soul Points +5]

[Soul Points +9]

…

While collecting the monsters’ lives, Gu Qing Shan was full of questions.

——–this was the first time that the War God System had openly prompted him to collect Soul Points.

This was unprecedented.

Was the War God System damaged that heavily because it provided me Soul Points in advance?

Gu Qing Shan squinted his eyes.

That can’t be right.

Back in Shen Wu world, even in a desperate situation, the War God System only asked if I wanted to return to the past again to avoid dying.

While it’s true that the War God System can no longer bring me back in time, the System never mentioned a single word about Soul Points during that dangerous situation.

So why is it asking for so much Soul Points right now?

While he was thinking, Gu Qing Shan’s hands never stopped.

He swung his Blade and killed a Desolate monster in front of him before moving to another place and continuing to kill monsters.

As he fell deeper into thought, Gu Qing Shan was killing faster and faster.

——–if the System needs Soul Points, regardless of whether it needs to heal itself or anything else, Gu Qing Shan had to support it to the best of his abilities.

After all, the System never treated him badly before.

The frost Blade was like a dancing white snowflake, flashing in and out of existence on the battlefield, wherever it passed, the monsters would always be cut up without fail.

None of the monsters could see Gu Qing Shan.

At this moment, he was their unseen Death.

…

After an unknown period of time.

A clear chime resounded.

[Ting]!

The War God System spoke: [Enough, you must immediately move to this world’s central defensive processor while you still have time]

Gu Qing Shan stopped.

He glanced at the War God UI and checked his current Soul Points.

[Remaining Soul Points: 3927/600]

For him, this was quite a bit.

As for the War God UI, the amount of Soul Points it obtained was an astronomical amount, easily several dozen million.

This was enough Soul Points to do practically anything.

Even if the System was really wounded from providing him Soul Points in advance, it should heal in a flash.

Gu Qing Shan tried asking: “System, if I get another chance to conceal myself like this, should we continue killing like this?”

[Naturally—— I need more Soul Points] the War God System replied.

Gu Qing Shan paused briefly.

“Alright then, let’s hope we get a chance to collect even more Soul Points later on”

Gu Qing Shan smiled as he spoke, but his heart slowly sank.
