Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

"Oppose violence, cherish peace"

Gu Qing Shan muttered.

The fatty nodded with a stern look on his face.

Gu Qing Shan asked: "Why do you think this way?"

The fatty threw the board in his hand away, then took out another board, placing it in front of his chest.

The board read:

[The true love of my entire life died in a war, my entire family was killed in a revenge conflict due to an impulsive killing, I've realized beyond doubt about the uselessness of violence in resolving problems, being part of violence means you will eventually have to pay your dues]

Reading the board, Gu Qing Shan uttered a long sigh.

"That terrible huh?" he asked.

The fatty nodded and wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes.

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.

He suddenly walked over to the first sign that the fatty threw away and took a careful look at it.

The words written on the sign were glued onto a piece of wood, but there were more layers of wood behind the first like, making it look like a series of overlapping signs.

"What's written behind this wooden sign of yours?"

Gu Qing Shan asked while ripping away the top layer that said [Oppose violence, cherish peace]

Rip------

As the top layer was ripped away, the layer below it was revealed, which read:

[Lost, hungry, begging for 5 pieces of Soul Crystals for food]

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

This kind of signboard had made the other party's credibility plummet by a mile.

He ripped this layer away as well.

As this layer of the sign was torn away, the third layer underneath was revealed, which read:

[10,000-year Dragon Froth liquid, a gut-wrenching great sale, 10 pieces of Soul Crystals in total, no bargaining!]

Gu Qing Shan sighed deeply and looked at the fatty again.

The fatty's expression was natural as he took out another signboard and wrote on it: [Death God sir, I'm all by myself and travel regularly, I need money]

After writing that, he raised the sign for Gu Qing Shan to read.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head.

------he really didn't want to bother playing word games with this dragon right now.

"Say------ you don't need to play that card with our own people" Gu Qing Shan said.

A mass of black fog exuded from his body to push the surrounding River of Death's fog away.

-------this is the presence of a dragon!

From the sky above to the earth below, only dragons can release such an aura!

The fatty's entire body shook and looked at Gu Qing Shan in disbelief.

He took out another sign and quickly wrote: [You're a dragon?]

Gu Qing Shan nodded and replied: "Can't be faked"

The fatty sighed in relief and happily continued writing: [Why didn't you say that ahead of time, how uninteresting, letting you see me act out such a terrible play, how humiliating]

Gu Qing Shan blankly replied: "I also want to know why you have to act out that terrible play as well"

The fatty's expression was more intimate as he continuously wrote on the sign: [If I knew the Death God was also a dragon, I wouldn't have had to act so pitiful and just asked you to let me stay"

"Stay? In the Realm of Life? Why do you want to do that?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

The fatty replied: [I slept for too long in the River of Death, so I've been meaning to come onto the Realm of Life to play for a bit]

He then continued writing: [What's your dragon race? What should I call you?]

Gu Qing Shan replied: "I'm a Demon Dragon, my name is Gu Qing Shan, you can call me old Gu or brother Gu------- what about you?"

The fatty nodded and wrote in reply: [Brother Gu, I'm a Death Dragon, as well as the fattest dragon, so all the other dragon brothers and sisters call me Dead Fatty]

"Ah, so you're brother Dead Fatty" Gu Qing Shan clasped his fist and asked in confusion: "Why are you only writing, can't you just talk?"

The fatty wrote: [I can't. My Dragon Hex is a bit unique, if I open my mouth, it'll become an offensive Hex, so I can't arbitrarily open my mouth]

Gu Qing Shan trembled.

A normal Dragon Shadow Hex needs a lot of words to affect others.

A Dragon Origin Hex needs others to react in order to establish a Causality Law to produce an effect.

But the Death Dragon's Hex can be activated by simply opening his mouth, that's already far beyond other dragons.

This fatty isn't simple at all.

"So what you said about loving peace is a joke huh?" Gu Qing Shan teased him.

The fatty wrote in an embarrassed manner: [Please, don't mention it again. I've just eliminated over a hundred million dead people, even my claws feel all slimy now, so I got bored and just wanted to rest for a while]

Gu Qing Shan was surprised: "Is the competition in the River of Death that fierce?"

The fatty shook his head and replied: [It was fine before, but it's gotten very rowdy lately. I don't know what happened either, but there's a large-scale battle practically every day now. I don't even have the time to sleep, so I wanted to take refuge in the Realm of Life for a while"

Gu Qing Shan nodded and agreed: "Then you're welcome to stay-------- just find me if you need anything"

[Thank you] the fatty gratefully wrote.

-----in reality, he was relying on Gu Qing Shan's power of Death to sustain himself in the Realm of Life using the summoning contract.

If Gu Qing Shan no longer maintained the supply of his power of Death, he would immediately be sent back.

Gu Qing Shan waved his hand dismissively and said: "No need to thank me, I still have business to attend to, so I'll be going first"

The fatty hesitated a bit before swiftly writing something in small writing.

He used his body to block the way, then discreetly handed the new message to Gu Qing Shan.

As Gu Qing Shan received it in surprise, he saw that it read: [Brother Gu, are there any vacation spots around here? It isn't easy for me to enter the Realm of Life, so I'd like to take it easy and take a dip somewhere]

Gu Qing Shan smiled wryly: "Dead Fatty, this is the Doomsday Necropolis, there are Apocalypses everywhere"

Dead Fatty was startled.

[Why did you summon me in such a dangerous place?] he wrote.

Gu Qing Shan looked back at him without saying a word.

-------are you kidding? You were summoned specifically BECAUSE this place was dangerous.

After thinking for a few short moments, Dead Fatty realized the error in his logic.

Hesitating for a bit more, he swiftly wrote again: [Can you take me outside? I'd like to take a look at the prosperous world]

Gu Qing Shan shook his head: "I still have something very important to attend to, but I can give you a map so that you can leave by yourself, how's that?"

[Alright] Dead Fatty wrote in reply.

"Then wait here for a bit"

Gu Qing Shan left the fog and returned to where the Professionists were waiting.

"How was it?" Hakuru nervously asked.

"Do we need to fight?" Hei Suo held up two bottles in his hand and asked with a low voice.

Gu Qing Shan looked at the others.

They all looked as if they were facing some sort of terrible enemy.

"Ah, about that, which one of you have a map? -------a map that leads outside from this location, preferably one that marks out some vacation worlds outside as well" Gu Qing Shan asked.

Everyone was stunned.

"We've entered very deep into the Doomsday Necropolis, there is nothing but various Apocalypses around it. If we don't have these exact members here, anyone else who wants to head in further or head outside would still face a lot of danger" Moon Song explained.

Gu Qing Shan replied: "I only need the map, that guy inside isn't afraid of an Apocalypse or two"

"Then I guess it's fine" Moon Song handed him a map.

Gu Qing Shan took and examined it, only to see that there were numerous Apocalypses marked out, almost to the point of being unable to see anything else.

He folded the map and entered the fog again.

The Death Dragon------

No, Dead Fatty.

He was still waiting in his original location.

Gu Qing Shan gave him the map and said: "You can enjoy yourself, I'll be heading out for my business now"

[Alright, I've bothered you a lot, tonight's dinner is on me] Dead Fatty wrote.

Gu Qing Shan nodded and went out of the fog again.

After he left, Dead Fatty finally stopped smiling and narrowed his eyes to carefully examine the map.

Dead Fatty thought to himself: "What an exceptionally clean map…"

"This Death God… has killed even more people than I did, his miasma of Death had practically solidified around him------- but he clearly treats his fellow kinsmen very well"

He put the map away and began heading towards the entrance.

After he left, the fog that was filled with the River of Death water vapor quickly dissipated.

Gu Qing Shan showed up again.

Safaya asked: "Your grace, where is that dragon?"

Gu Qing Shan replied: "It had other business to attend to------ Right, since we have this chance, let me tell you a certain rule that I hope you all will keep in mind"

"Please go ahead"

"Remember, for our battles up ahead, do your best not to summon any dragons, they're too dangerous" Gu Qing Shan told them all.

-------in truth, it's just a bit tiring to communicate with them.

Gu Qing Shan didn't want to run into another peace-loving dragon on his upcoming journey.

"Understood" the rest answered.

"Then, how much longer will it be until we reach the next Apocalyptic monster?" he asked.

He was extremely poor when it came to Soul Points right now, unable to even summon the rooster.

Safaya thought briefly and said: "There's probably a day's trip remaining"

"That far away?" Gu Qing Shan frowned.

"Yes, we will have to pass through several unique Apocalypses, all of which are Law-type, there aren't any monsters inside them" Moon Song explained.

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.

If that's the case, I wouldn't be able to earn Soul Points for a while.

Gu Qing Shan reached into his chest to stroke the colorful rooster's head.

Suddenly, a rooster's morning caw resounded in his mind: "Youngster, let's work right away, give me 20,000 Soul Points and I'll find you some information"

Gu Qing Shan instantly felt assured.

20,000 Soul Points.

I can reach that much after just a little bit of time!

Soul Points…

Hurry up and think; were there any other ways for me to earn Soul Points without killing power monsters?

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit before he told the other Professionists:

"Alright, let's reorganize ourselves, we'll set out an hour from now"

After that, Gu Qing Shan arranged an isolation formation for himself and vanished from everyone's sight.

The Professionists all felt a bit puzzled.

--------didn't we just finish resting a little bit earlier?

Why are we resting again?

However, they couldn't really say anything to that, since this was an order from the one who hired them.

Everyone slowly calmed down and began to rest on the spot.

-------while they couldn't see inside the isolation formation, Gu Qing Shan put a bunch of rations on the ground.

He then turned into an orange cat.

There was a certain wonderful function of [Orange Sovereign Transformation]: while Gu Qing Shan was in the orange cat state, he would obtain two unique abilities, one was [Ghostly Shadow of Night], and the other was [Energy Absorption]

[Energy Absorption: You will no longer passively absorb origin power of the soul from the void of space, but through eating and devouring, the amount of Soul Points you earn will double]

The orange cat licked his lips and began digging into the rations.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[Through eating, you're earning double the amount of Soul Points]

[You've obtained 10 Soul Points]

[You've obtained 12 Soul Points]

[You've obtained 20 Soul Points]

[…]

"Hic!"
