Chapter 510: Half an hour
Proofreader: Arya
The original world.
Freedom Confederate, the capital’s outskirts.
The mountaintop mansion.
A screen of light appeared, followed by Gu Qing Shan.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, he chanted: “Justice Iron Fist Club”.
Following his chant, a thin string appeared from the void of s.p.a.ce.
This was a void string, connecting him and the faraway Super Dimensional world—— Justice Iron Fist Club.
Gu Qing Shan pulled the string.
It immediately reacted.
The string began to expand at an incredibly slow rate.
——due to how long the distance was.
Even after the Super Dimensional beacon had been activated, it would take a while for the void string to prepare.
Sensing the change of the void string, Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
From this moment onwards, the beacon would be getting ready to warp him.
This was an irreversible and unstoppable process.
Kitty told him that it would take about half an hour until Gu Qing Shan is transported.
What can I do in half an hour?
Gu Qing Shan stretched his back.
I think… there isn’t anything to do?
The Holo-Brain in his breast pocket lit up out of nowhere.
[Sir, it is good to see you, you’ve returned just in time] Impartial G.o.ddess’ voice came.
“Hm? What’s the matter?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
[We ran into some serious trouble] Impartial G.o.ddess told him.
A lot of data and records were then displayed on his Holo-Brain.
Everything that happened since the day the Wraiths and Demis began their invasion was presented to Gu Qing Shan.
“The Wraiths and Demis are invading?” Gu Qing Shan scowled.
“How many of them are there in total? I don’t have much time. Prepare the warp points, I’ll take care of this”
As Gu Qing Shan asked, he had already grabbed the Earth sword from the void of s.p.a.ce.
He wanted to go out and deal with this in one fell swoop.
[No, sir, this isn’t that simple] Impartial G.o.ddess replied.
More data appeared on the screen.
From the details shown, the current situation was one where tens of thousands of Wraiths and over a hundred Demi had scattered all over the world.
From their conversations, it was believed that the Asura and Beast Kings were also hiding in the shadow, waiting for a moment to strike.
“So that’s what happened, this really is troublesome” Gu Qing Shan felt a bit of a headache as he finished reading the records.
The Super Dimensional warp had already been activated.
He only had half an hour.
A single person wanting to go all around the world and deal with these threats in half an hour was nothing but impossible.
And both the Asura and Beast Kings were still hiding in their respective worlds rather than coming here.
They were standing by to observe and wait.
Gu Qing Shan would need to spend a lot of time and effort to thoroughly deal with this problem.
——-and he didn’t have the time.
Gu Qing Shan inhaled deeply.
He carefully looked over all the data, forcing himself to think as rationally as possible.
It took almost 10 minutes for him to read all the records and understand the basic situation.
There was only 20 minutes left until he was warped away.
Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead.
He was silently going through the records he just read in his mind.
Every Wraith, every Demi, their every action, every word, everything quickly scanned through in Gu Qing Shan’s mind.
“Demi… every Demi has their own Divine Skill, and our cultivators are no match for them, how do I overturn this situation…” Gu Qing Shan muttered.
This same problem had also been plaguing Zhang Ying Hao’s mind.
Impartial G.o.ddess asked: [Sir, do you need me to tell everyone that you’ve returned?]
“Don’t, I need a bit of time to think”
Gu Qing Shan stood up, pacing back and forth in the room.
Remaining absolutely rational, he was thinking at unprecedented speeds.
Regardless of what was happening to this world, he must save Su Xue Er first.
However—–
Wouldn’t everything be fine in the end if he could just come up with a possible solution for this world within the short 30 minutes he had?
Thinking that, Gu Qing Shan said: “Bring records numbers 7, 93, 136, 385 and 614 back out, I need to look through them again”
[Understood, sir]
Video records and data quickly appeared on the Holo-Brain.
They flashed through the screen at such a speed where normal people wouldn’t even be able to realize what was happening.
But Gu Qing Shan stared straight at the screen of the Holo-Brain, completely focused.
Anyone would look at this with disbelief.
“Too slow, increase the scroll speed” he ordered.
[Very well, sir] Impartial G.o.ddess replied.
The data on screen started flowing at the speed of a waterfall, appearing and disappearing within a split second.
This had already surpa.s.sed the limit of human cognition.
But Gu Qing Shan read it all just fine, occasionally even nodding, seemingly to confirm the situation.
At a certain point, Gu Qing Shan noticed something.
He muttered: “Whether if it’s the Demi or the Wraiths, even the Asura and Beast Kings, what they want is to obtain this world, not destroy it”
Impartial G.o.ddess continued: [Yes, sir. Mr. Zhang Ying Hao also arrived at the same conclusion]
“So he already noticed?” Gu Qing Shan laughed, “then why did he not deal with these guys yet?”
[Mr. Zhang Ying Hao had used many plans and schemes, producing extraordinary results. But the Demis are too powerful, his schemes weren’t able to produce decisive results]
“The Demis are too strong…”
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and asked: “What about Ye Fei Li? He’s a Man Killer Fiend, aren’t you supporting him to become stronger?”
Impartial G.o.ddess replied: [According to my calculations, his growth is fast, but given the growth curve observed so far, he won’t make it in time to save this world]
“Why not?”
[The most powerful Demis are powerful beyond human imagination. According to my calculations, at most, 2 days later this world will have been taken over by the Demis, Ye Fei Li would not grow up in time]
“So that’s the reason” Gu Qing Shan nodded.
23 minutes had pa.s.sed.
Gu Qing Shan was able to sense the void string clearer and clearer as time went by.
It was already tugging at Gu Qing Shan lightly, attempting to take him away from this world.
There’s not enough time left!
Gu Qing Shan inhaled deeply and closed his eyes to think.
“They don’t want to destroy this world, they want this world”
He began to mutter in a low voice.
Seemingly to emphasize this to himself.
He was forcing himself to remember this crucial piece of intel.
“…humans are no match for the Demi”
“Ye Fei Li needs more time to grow…”
Gu Qing Shan abruptly opened his eyes.
He felt it.
The void string had gathered enough power and was about to pull him away.
1 second later, the void string will take him back to the Justice Iron Fist Club!
In that brief second, Gu Qing Shan placed his hands on the keyboard.
There was no time for an explanation!
There wasn’t even time for a full sentence.
In one second, I can only——-
“Authorize all authority to Ye Fei Li!”
Gu Qing Shan shouted.
He managed to type a few words at lightning speed.
Whoos.h.!.+
Right as he finished, Gu Qing Shan disappeared from this world.
