Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

"Did he really say that?" the County Magistrate asked.

"He did, sir. He said he didn't know how to read, but he told me earlier that his cooking skills all came from a cookbook" Officer Liu reported.

The County Magistrate chuckled and asked: "What do you think is going on?"

"This subordinate doesn't know either" Officer Liu said.

The County Magistrate stroked the bow in his hand and casually said: "As soon as he arrived, he volunteered to donate all of his bounty rewards, he was also an obedient person, as well as a considerate one. Most likely, he had purposely said that for you to not feel awkward"

Officer Liu sighed: "His archery skills are truly impressive. Even I felt a bit shocked when I saw it on the riverbanks"

The County Magistrate sounded surprised: "Distorting arrows isn't an uncommon technique, so why do you feel that he's special?"

Officer Liu wondered for a while before finally answering: "I don't know either. I just felt like his killing intent was so heavy that I felt a chill"

The County Magistrate pondered this matter.

Even now when everyone's strength has been limited, this person could still cause old Liu to feel shaken.

That's not a simple matter.

The County Magistrate mused: "Then it seems his original strength was quite considerable------ perhaps I should join your banquet tonight as well"

"Understood, sir" Officer Liu said.

…

At another location.

A small courtyard house.

Gu Qing Shan had taken out the Reincarnation Gloomy Orchid and activated [Moon Invitation]

Lines of bright red text appeared in front of him:

[Because the living beings connected to you are all still in slumber, you cannot select a specific individual to be summoned]

[One living being with relations to you will be randomly awakened and manifested here]

[They will lose all of their powers, retaining only one ability]

All the bright red text then disappeared.

A thin line of bright red light descended in front of Gu Qing Shan and opened to both sides like a gate.

A mature man of over 50 years old appeared.

His facial expressions were profound, his gaze filled with maturity and vicissitudes, currently wearing an expensive black suit with a cigarette in his mouth and a number of gem-ornate rings on his finger.

------a dandy old man.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, his image shattered like glass:

"What the hell!? I was still studying the mysteries of androgyny during my slumber, why did you suddenly wake me up?"

Seeing the other party, Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but sigh.

"Liu Xing, long time no see" he greeted him.

"Long time no see. Don't worry, everything in the home world is completely fine, your brother has been watching over it in your stead" Liu Xing said.

Indeed, this person was the most famous scientist of the Confederate who faked his death to avoid the Nine Lords' pursuit and fled into space, Liu Xing.

Afterwards, he was 'persuaded' by Gu Qing Shan to return and worked with him on more than one occasion.

Liu Xing offered a cigarette to Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan didn't accept it, so he started smoking it himself.

After Gu Qing Shan had finished explaining the circumstances, Liu Xing appeared to be interested: "Although you've forgotten a lot of things, I can infer from your current state that all you Chosen Saints have gotten your powers sealed away, with only your original bodies and some basic abilities remaining"

"That's right" Gu Qing Shan replied.

Speaking of this, he felt a bit grateful to Lin.

Not only was the martial scripture that Lin taught him quite mysterious, it was also exceptionally powerful. As long as one recited it before each cultivation session, one would continuously strengthen their body and improve their comprehension of martial arts.

He had never skipped out on reciting this martial scripture even once since getting it.

"I've left our home world for too long------- which cultivation realm are you currently at?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

"Rejuvenation realm" Liu Xiu answered.

Gu Qing Shan was surprised: "That can't be, you're an accomplished scientist, your thought process should already be meticulous with peerless comprehension, you should have gotten into cultivation much quicker compared to anyone else"

Liu Xing's face became a bit embarrassed and answered: "In truth, I originally wanted to catch up to you, but when I reached Rejuvenation realm, my lifespan was already a few thousand years long and my body had gotten much healthier, so I couldn't hold myself back"

"What did you do?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

Liu Xing seemed to be thinking about something and answered: "I'm the entire world's leading scientist y'know, there are countless beauties who want to get close to the bleeding edge technology through me, there are long-haired, lively, big-eyed, thin hips, black stockings, matured, graceful, pure------ tsk tsk, I've already achieved my life's goal"

Gu Qing Shan rubbed his temples and asked: "Didn't you already have a lot of children?"

"Life is about continuing to strive forward and always be ready to face new challenges" Liu Xing shrugged.

Gu Qing Shan stared straight at him, almost ready to kick him back.

But [Moon Invitation] wasn't something that could be used as he wished, it could only be activated once per day.

With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan asked directly:

"Old Liu, I've already informed you of the situation, do you have anything you can help me with?"

Liu Xing mused: "After you guys left, I've done some more research on Warp Bombs, I have a few of them with me here, enough to blow up a few planets"

"…No need, I want something that's a little bit smaller in caliber" Gu Qing Shan said.

"How small?" Liu Xing asked.

"Enough to blow a structure that's about two football fields in size" Gu Qing Shan replied.

Liu Xing asked: "----That small? I don't have anything like that at hand, the only one that would barely fit your need is a time bomb"

Gu Qing Shan said: "Give that to me, then you can go back to sleep"

Liu Xing hurriedly said: "Wait a minute! Let me stroll around this world a bit, I want to take a look at this world's native characteristics"

Gu Qing Shan said: "You actually just want to see the women of this world, don't you?"

Liu Xing awkwardly replied: "Ahaha, old Gu, you understand me so well"

"-----Give me the bomb" Gu Qing Shan put out his hand.

"Here"

"Alright, bye bye"

Gu Qing Shan dispelled [Moon Invitation].

Liu Xing's figure vanished from the courtyard as if he had never been here in the first place.

But Gu Qing Shan now had a square-shaped bomb that he didn't possess before in his hand.

Gu Qing Shan was originally a mechanical scientist as well, so he put out a bit of time to study the bomb's structure.

"A relatively perfect mechanical construct------- why would such a talented person let his progress be stopped by women? I really don't understand"

He sighed, putting the bomb into his bag, before leaving the courtyard house with his bow and blade.

…

Sunset.

The lanterns had just been lit.

The entire restaurant's lively atmosphere was unprecedented.

This couldn't be helped, as the County Magistrate himself was participating in today's banquet, the scale might be completely different from normal and the entire restaurant had been bought out.
