Chapter 1539: An ident.i.ty change
“What weapon was that just now? It was able to directly strike a target from the other side of the world” Boss asked.
Gu Qing Shan appeared reminiscent and replied: “In the past, my homeworld faced a lot Apocalypses, our technology couldn’t even pierce through the defense of those monsters, so we believed that it was due to the suppression of world levels”
Boss was a bit surprised: “Ah—— I understand. When a world is too powerful, the power of its Laws would protect its living beings so that when they descend on weaker worlds, they would suffer considerably less damage”
Gu Qing Shan continued: “That’s right. At the time, our world decided to begin a research topic relating to the issue of greater world suppression. Eventually, this research was completed and resulted in a warp-type firearm that could ignore the suppression of world levels, which was wielded by Su Xue Er”
——-this was something that occurred during his time at the secret pa.s.sage to the Dusty World.
Su Xue Er had watched over his body and stood firm in combat, ultimately using this gun to kill two fake Deities who had been attached to by two Divine Artifacts of Huang Quan.
“No wonder it was so powerful, tsk tsk” Boss praised.
Gu Qing Shan looked down at the six Sealing Tokens in his hand.
Lines of glowing text appeared in front of his eyes:
[The Sealing Tokens (full set: one, two, three, four, five, six)]
[Rare item, Divine Artifact]
[You must hear its creator’s explanation in order to understanding its use]
Gu Qing Shan looked up and turned to the black dog in front of him.
“Boss, now that I’ve collected all six Sealing Tokens, what can they do?” he asked.
The black dog cleared his throat and explained: “Their first function is to set all history occurrences in stone and ensure that there would no longer be any changes”
“Their second function——- they’re the only secret key capable of resolving the secret of the frozen corpse’s power”
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but ask: “The giant eyeball was also a part of the corpse’s body?”
The black dog lifted his head up and solemnly answered: “That’s correct. It had gained its own sentience, but I’ve thought further about this matter compared to anyone else, so I left only a single eyeball and some hair within the Eternal Abyss”
“They’re all parts of the corpse?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“That’s right, I used the power within those hairs to create Abyssal forms, but the power of the eyeball was too much, so I had no choice but to leave it in slumber” the black dog explained.
“Where are the other parts of the corpses?” Gu Qing Shan pursued the question.
“They’ve all been sealed by these six Sealing Tokens, hidden in a place that no one would be able to reach. Even if someone managed to find it, without the Sealing Tokens, they would never be able to access it either”
After hearing that, Gu Qing Shan turned his attention to the War G.o.d UI.
Sure enough, the War G.o.d UI had displayed the corresponding explanation.
——-so that was why.
Reneedol discovered that the Eternal Abyss only hid a single eyeball, so she tried to force Fei Yue to use her Fate Ability, [Longing], to search for the other parts of the corpse.
What exactly is Reneedol trying to do?
Right, she had the ability to summon Apocalypses, and that frozen corpse was originally a type of Apocalypse.
Outside the Reality Gate, there were also countless Apocalypses attempting to search for it.
——-Reneedol wanted to be able to summon the frozen corpse!
If she could achieve this, who else would be able to oppose her?
Everyone and everything will be forced to kneel at her feet!
Gu Qing Shan fully understood the situation and asked: “Boss, now that these things are in our hands, how should we deal with them?”
Suddenly——-
The void of s.p.a.ce was distorted and a monster popped out in front of them.
Right as it raised its long blade of bones into the air, its entire body had already been dissected into numerous pieces.
Several sword phantoms manifested around Gu Qing Shan and the black dog, then slowly faded away.
——-it was as if these sword phantoms had always been there, they’d just been out of sight.
Two lines glowing text appeared on the War G.o.d UI:
[You’ve killed the Apocalypse a.s.sa.s.sin: Broken Bone Shadow]
[You obtained 30,000 Soul Points]
Gu Qing Shan looked at the scattered corpse parts on the ground and calmly said: “Fools, now that I know you’re trying to a.s.sa.s.sinate me, of course I won’t let my guard down again”
The black dog fell into thought and spoke after a long while: “But continuing like this isn’t a good idea either. If they take the opportunity while we’re eating or p.o.o.ping to a.s.sa.s.sinate us, it’s going to feel irritating regardless of the outcome”
“Then do you have any good ideas?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“From how we’re so clueless about the current situation—— I think you can consider ‘that"” the black dog mysteriously said.
“Consider what?”
“Something you’re an expert at”
The black dog ran forward a few steps and kicked the tattered monster’s head towards Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan looked down at the head full of eyes.
——-Apocalypse monster, Myriad Eyes.
Boss is right, this is also one idea.
Now that [Mystery of All Beings Equal] has evolved to such a high degree, I can completely transform into any target.
If that’s the case, it wouldn’t be quite as easy for the a.s.sa.s.sins to find me anymore.
I would also be able to infiltrate the Apocalypse monsters and learn more about them.
Gu Qing Shan lightly placed his hand over the head.
——–[Mystery of All beings Equal], activate!
He slowly turned into the monster whose body was full of eyes.
「 There 」
The monster uttered a confused cry, then took a few steps.
「 —–No good, this guy is literally full of eyes, I feel dizzy just taking two steps forward 」Gu Qing Shan said.
“Then try the other?” Boss suggested.
Gu Qing Shan turned back, then placed his hand over the other tattered corpse.
A second later, he turned into a faint shadow——- a monster made of nothing but shadows.
“How do you feel now?” Boss asked.
「 A bit… jumpy, but it’s much better than the other one, I’ll be able to disguise as it after a bit of adjustment 」Gu Qing Shan replied.
From the number of Soul Points he obtained, the monster called ‘Broken Bones Shadow’ was a bit more advanced compared to ‘Myriad Eyes’.
Gu Qing Shan collected all the corpse parts on the ground, then picked up the monster’s bone machete and brandished it a few times.
“You know how to use a Blade?” the black dog asked.
「 Just a little bit. Now that I’ve turned into an Apocalypse monster, what are you going to do? 」 Gu Qing Shan answered while brandis.h.i.+ng the Blade.
“I’ve attached myself to something dependent on you, so I naturally have a way to hide myself”
After saying that, the black dog turned into a ma.s.s of flames and slowly entered Gu Qing Shan’s Thought Sea.
———-there were no issues this time.
Gu Qing Shan sighed and replied: 「 Alright, it’s finally peaceful, we won’t be discovered so quickly again 」
As soon as he said that.
A black dot appeared in the sky, then gradually enlarged itself in front of Gu Qing Shan’s eyes.
A large triangular metallic structure descended in front of Gu Qing Shan.
Numerous inexplicable voices came from the metallic structure.
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
“Boss, do you understand?” he silently asked in his mind.
“It seems to be a sort of Apocalypse civilization language; I’ve not researched them” Boss replied.
“Not good, I don’t understand either” Gu Qing Shan said.
“Then——- what now?” Boss asked.
At this point, the metallic structure began to speak more rapidly, as if repeating something over and over.
“I think this is an Apocalypse civilization from this era, they detected you and thought that you were one of them” Boss judged the situation.
Gu Qing Shan nodded and continued sending his voice: “I think so as well——- but I really don’t understand a single thing it’s saying”
“Hurry and think of something, otherwise, we have no choice but to give up on this ident.i.ty” Boss told him.
Gu Qing Shan remained silent for a brief moment.
What now?
Do I really have to expose myself right away?
Pff——
Suddenly, he coughed up some spat and staggered down to the ground.
The voices from the triangular metallic structure immediately stopped.
It went silent for a long time, seemingly understanding the current situation.
A ray of light appeared from the metallic structure and scanned Gu Qing Shan’s body.
——-he was truly wounded, not fake at all.
The unfamiliar language was heard again, but this time, it didn’t seem to be talking with him, but rather reporting something to someone else.
A few moments later.
The triangular metallic structure opened up.
Two monsters emerged and crouched in front of Gu Qing Shan to take a more careful look.
They muttered something, then gradually began to argue.
After arguing for a while, one of the monsters tried to examine Gu Qing Shan, only for Gu Qing Shan to immediately collapse and begin coughing up more blood.
The two monsters were shocked.
At the next moment, Gu Qing Shan struggled to open his eyes and pointed at the monster like he wanted to say something.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, before he said a single thing, he fell unconscious again.
The two monsters went silent and slowly exchanged glances.
Alright, there’s nothing else to argue about.
They took out a metal stretcher, carried Gu Qing Shan onto it, then hurriedly returned to the metallic structure.
The door closed.
Oong oong oong——–
The triangular metallic structure flew through the sky and quickly left this world.
