Chapter 1529: King of War
“Go help her!”
Gu Qing Shan waved his hand and sent the Chao Yin sword away.
In the sky, Shannu received the Chao Yin sword while still wielding the Six Paths Great Mountain sword, then immediately exerted all of her sword skills.
One sword was instantly clad in frost, the other enveloped by flames.
Both swords were swung at once!
In an instant, the sky turned into a sea of fire.
Clotho who had just returned were enveloped by fire and ice.
——-followed by a Mind Sword.
[Rahu’s Eclipse of Sun and Moon]!
A gigantic figure howled as it crossed through the void of s.p.a.ce and instantly pierced through Clotho’s body.
Without waiting for Clotho to react at all, a streak of light shot across the sky.
This strike was extremely fast, so much so that Clotho didn’t even get a chance to resist it.
Shu——-
The Earth sword wielded by Gu Qing Shan pierced through Clotho’s chest.
Drifting sword images bloomed from within Clotho’s body like a lotus of b.l.o.o.d.y swords.
Secret Art, [Drawn Shadow]!
Clotho was slashed to bits by countless sword images, scattered into the wind, and disappeared.
“What does that matter?”
Another female voice sounded.
As the torrent of swords from earlier disappeared, Reneedol and Atropos reappeared.
She lightly waved her hand.
The darkness around her gathered into the form of a woman.
Clotho
Clotho had reappeared by her side.
“Her fate lies in my hand, even if you kill her, I can easily grant her a new life” Reneedol stated without being disturbed at all.
Clotho stared straight at Shannu and said: “So it was you…”
Gu Qing Shan immediately shouted: “Shannu, return!”
Shannu entered the Six Paths Great Mountain sword and disappeared with the Chao Yin sword into the void of s.p.a.ce, swiftly returning to Gu Qing Shan’s hand.
“Clotho, what do you mean by that?” Reneedol furrowed her brows and asked.
“She is Red Wraith, the one who killed her last time was her”
“Ah, that small detail no longer matters”
Reneedol appeared a bit bored.
The large dark featureless humanoid face behind her opened its mouth wide and uttered a resounding howl.
The snowstorm stopped.
An immense tremor resounded from the sky as if some sort of ent.i.ty was ripping it apart.
Intense pressure rose from Reneedol’s body as if she was preparing something.
“Wait a minute, I have something to say” Gu Qing Shan said.
“Speak” Reneedol replied.
“You’ve received all of Shroud’s power, the allegiance of the two Deities of Fate, their Divine Artifacts, and even control over the Apocalypse—– you’ve already obtained so much, why don’t we just part ways here?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“Part ways?” Reneedol repeated.
“That’s right” Gu Qing Shan lowered his sword and seriously said: “I’ve always appreciated those who refuse to accept their Fate. For someone like you whose body had been taken over as soon as you were born, but still managed to fight against Fate and achieve greatness, I wouldn’t even try to consider using normal means——- what do you say we stop here? From now on, you’ll walk your own path, and we’ll walk ours”
While talking, he also glanced at Boss.
Following the normal history, Reneedol cannot die.
Even without that, according to Lachesis’ foresight, it still isn’t time for Reneedol to die.
——–she would continue to survive until my future.
In that case, history would retain its accuracy and course, n.o.body’s Fate would be altered.
Only then would the sixth Sealing Token appear, bringing Boss and I back to the future.
This is the best solution for now.
Reneedol thought briefly and suddenly chuckled:
“Parting ways… it’s not impossible, but you would first have to survive”
“Survive?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
Reneedol answered without much thought: “Of course, this entire world, as well as every other worlds, were manifested from Shroud’s body. Do you think I would continue to live on his body?”
“Then what are you——-”
“I’ll destroy this place, let the Apocalypses fill the void, then head outside the Reality Gate” Reneedol casually replied.
She raised her hand, then looked down at her fingers and muttered: “I’m very interested in the Apocalypse——- because of the two Deities of Fate, I’ve devoured the Apocalypse Seeker and obtain the power to communicate with the Apocalypse”
Following her voice, the sky broke in half.
A giant and ferocious face replaced the sky to observe everything below.
Reneedol continued:
“After this world is buried, if you can survive, then you’re free to survive——– I won’t directly act against you, you can continue to live until you’re killed by one of the Apocalypses I summon”
Oong—–
The void of s.p.a.ce moved.
Numerous insects poured out from all sides.
They each had a human face while their bodies were beetle-like, with a pair of paper-thin transparent wings at their backs and razor-sharp teeth.
Gu Qing Shan had seen these insects before.
In the past, if it wasn’t for the three Divine Artifacts of the Deities of fate, the Lord of Infinite Origins would have already been defeated by this type of insect.
Reneedol only spat out a single word:
“Go!”
All the insects’ wings rapidly flapped to make a resounding noise as they all charged towards Gu Qing Shan’s group.
Reneedol stood with her hands behind her back while the two Deities of Fate stood by her side, her gaze no longer looking at the group in front of her.
She had fallen into thought, apparently thinking of how she would head towards the Reality Gate.
“It was most likely a mistake” Gu Qing Shan commented.
“That’s right, completely unlike what we had thought” Boss replied.
“If she’s left alone like this, what will happen to the future?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“The future? If she’s left to destroy everything, there wouldn’t be any future, everything would be destroyed right here and now” Boss replied.
“Seems like there’s no other way” Gu Qing Shan sighed and said.
“That’s right, there really isn’t” Boss agreed.
He raised his fist towards Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan b.u.mped against Boss’ fist with his own.
Instantly, lines of glowing text appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan’s eyes:
[Order has been reinforced]
[You’ve registered into Worlds Apocalypse Online – Human Regiment]
At the same time, a female voice called out:
[Long time no see, Gu Qing Shan. Welcome back to the Order, would you like to begin battling against the Apocalypse?]
Gu Qing Shan replied: “Lady Darksea, you may use all of my Soul Points, please immediately prepare for war”
[Very well. System message has been received, begin investigation of the environment, initiating the Order’s retaliation measures] Lady Darksea replied.
A blue UI popped up in front of Gu Qing Shan’s vision.
Lines of notifications quickly appeared on the UI:
[Considering the severity of the situation, forcefully initiated summoning mode to follow his grace Gu Qing Shan’s past combat method. Technological type has been chosen]
[Soul Points replenishment complete, everything has been prepared]
[Initiating War——-]
[Summon regiment!]
Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
Numerous popping noises rang out as innumerable metallic cubes fell in front of the two of them into a formation.
The metallic cubes rapidly expanded into humanoid metal statues.
The first metal soldier appeared.
He opened his mouth wide and stood still.
At this time, the swarm of insects had rushed forward and practically enveloped the entire soldier formation.
An electronic voice rang out:
[Molecular vibrating blade, release]
The soldier spat out a black metal ellipsoid.
The metal ellipsoid spun as it flew into the middle of the insects and directly disappeared——-
A particularly ferocious insect had swallowed it.
A second later.
Electronic noises rang out through the void of s.p.a.ce.
The swarm of insects had been completely wiped out.
They were turned into b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.ses and filled the sky.
As they saw bloodshed, the insects in the back rushed forward at an even madder pace in an attempt to break through this technological line of defense.
But it was useless. Before the molecular vibration blade fully ran out of energy, it would not grow even a little bit weaker.
Through collecting the insects’ atoms and a.n.a.lyzing their resonance frequency, the blade had reproduced a rhythmic resonance that would directly destroy the insects’ bodies.
With this to ease the situation, more metal soldiers appeared.
Hundreds of metallic soldiers stood in line, preparing for war.
Lady Darksea’s voice could be heard:
[Resonance Blade efficiency reached 99.19%. Initiating transformation into Mobile Mechs to break encirclement]
The metallic soldiers stopped moving.
Their fluid-like metal bodies began to grow armor plates that tightly protected them, leaving only their s.h.i.+ning electronic eyes.
[Coating complete]
[Molecular resonance blades prepared]
[Charge!]
All the Mechs charged into the sky towards the swarm of insects.
The war immediately entered an intense state!
Gu Qing Shan took a few steps back, used the Six Paths Great Mountain sword to cut the starlight rope binding Little Dusk’s body, then handed her a canned drink.
He then approached the unconscious Scarlet and poured a healing drink into the mouth.
“Alcohol… give me alcohol…” Scarlet frowned and muttered.
Gu Qing Shan ignored her and continued pouring another canned drink into her mouth.
After that was done, he noticed that Boss was still motionless.
Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise: “You can’t depend on just me alone, where’s your army?”
Boss appeared reminiscent and asked: “Perhaps you don’t remember, but during the battle against the Soul Shrieker, I was reinforced by the archetype with the greatest growth potential”
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised, then quickly recalled.
——the template that Boss was given, if I remember correctly, was [Worlds Apocalypse Online – Foot Soldier]
Boss smiled and sighed: “Leave the face in the sky to me”
He took two steps forward, then gradually began to run.
A black trident appeared from the void of s.p.a.ce, which he grabbed.
Countless golden fragments spun around his body before attaching themselves to him and formed a suit of armor that exuded golden fog.
Boom——
Boss leapt into the sky towards the ferocious face in the sky.
Lines of text appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan’s vision:
[Reporting, your grace. At the moment, Boss’ template had evolved into its ultimate form, far surpa.s.sing any others reinforced by the Order]
“Oh? Can you tell me which template he’s currently using?” Gu Qing Shan asked with interest.
Another line of text appeared:
[Worlds Apocalypse Online – King of War]
Reading this, Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
In the sky, the sound of boundless howling could be heard.
