Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

Shortly after, quite a few things were on the table.

A handkerchief, her Holo-Brain, a small doll trinket, hand mirror, makeup box, lipstick, gloves, sunscreen, a small comb, an insulated water bottle, lunchbox, and a small diary.

"Your jewelry too" the woman said.

Su Xue Er bit her lip slightly, then took off the necklace she wore and placed it on the table as well.

It was a simple black string with a ring tied onto it.

The Blazing Angel's control unit.

Glancing over them, the woman smiled a bit.

She muttered: "There seems to still be something else"

Su Xue Er couldn't do anything but place the jade bottle and the small booklet onto the table as well.

She placed her hand closely to the table, looking at the black card anxiously.

If she sees something fishy, she's ready to immediately take these two things back.

"Ah, that would be enough"

The woman looked at all the items on the table then rubbed her hand.

"No need to fear, this card of mine is called [True Fate], the connection to every miracle that exists, the only one of its kind in this universe"

She spoke full of nostalgia: "My husband died to let me manifest this card, and he was the strongest person at the time"

Su Xue Er couldn't help but ask: "This card is ----------but just now, you said it was a Fate-type God's Chosen Skill, how is it a card?"

God's Chosen Skills are divided into 5 stages, 1st stage is Awakening, 2nd stage Manifest at Will, 3rd stage Complete Awakening, 4th stage Mutation, 5th stage Re-Evolution.

This is common sense, but Su Xue Er has never heard of anyone being able to turn their God's Chosen Skill into a card.

"It couldn't be that you think a powerful God's Chosen will only have a single Skill for their entire life?" the woman asked.

"Once the God's Chosen Skill is able to manifest as a card, your Skill has officially broken through the 5th stage, reaching an entirely new realm"

"A new realm?" Su Xue Er was surprised.

The woman answered: "Correct, on this new realm, you'll be able to awaken even more types of skills, each of them will categorize themselves according to your own status, manifesting either as a card, a scroll, or any other form"

She lifted her hand and took the black card from above.

"Each and every card is a different God's Chosen Skill" she said.

Inside the card, Su Xue Er saw there was a spinning wheel, with a black snake slithering around it.

The woman placed the card in front of Su Xue Er as her tone became serious.

"To activate the [True Fate], I'll need your inherited power" she said.

Su Xue Er reached her hand out and touched the card.

The complex pattern in her body started to move along her arm, then lightly touched the card at her finger tip.

The pattern then became much dimmer and slowly moved back into Su Xue Er's body.

The black card was shaking intensely, as if it was hurrying to do something.

Seeing so, the woman rubbed her chin and chanted: "Change fate"

As soon as she finished, the black snake inside the card turned and looked straight at Su Xue Er.

Su Xue Er felt herself being pierced through by those eyes, even her deepest, most well-hidden desires were seen without any resistance.

Quickly, the black snake slithered out onto the table through the border of the card.

It moved around the many items on the wooden table.

After looking through everything, it bit on the small booklet and quickly slithered back into the card.

"Ah!" Su Xue Er panicked, that is something Gu Qing Shan gave me.

Right as she was about to move, the woman stopped her.

"Don't panic, it's only taking a look"

The woman's low voice was firm and calming, allowing Su Xue Er to keep her anxiety down.

Sure enough, the snake only placed the booklet onto the spinning wheel, after travelling around a few times, it was returned onto the table together with everything else.

But now, another black card was being kept inside the booklet, peeking about 1/3rd of the way out.

"Draw that card, that is the gift fate has given you" the woman said, her tone seemed to be a bit tired.

Su Xue Er quickly took the booklet in hand and gently drew the black card out.

Depicted on the card was a half-closed door, with a bit of light peeking out from the gaps.

Aside from this door, there was nothing else on the card.

The woman gasped, surprised: "You're able to pull this card from the wheel of fate!? That's completely unheard of, I've only read about it from the legends"

"So the results aren't bad?" Su Xue Er hesitantly asked.

The woman exclaimed: "It's not just 'not bad', this is an exceptionally result --------it seems the snake of fate really likes that item of yours"

"What does this card do?" Su Xue Er asked.

"It will give you an entirely new life"

"How would it do that?"

"It'll be completely different from anything you've ever experienced before, and you're very likely to lose your life on the way, but if you're able to persevere, everything will change"

"Such a fate, do you really want to try it?"

Su Xue Er gritted her teeth: "I have to try it"

The woman then said: "Before you use it, do you still have something else you're in a hurry to do?"

Su Xue Er thought about it for a bit, then answered: "There's nothing really important that I need to do"

"Then it's fine, you can use it now"

"Remember, do everything you can to protect yourself, on the way to your new fate, if you happen to die, you will die in reality as well"

"I understand; how do I use this card?"

"Infuse your Wind Elemental power into the card"

After gathering her things, Su Xue Er followed the instructions.

A second later, a light enveloped her.

Then she disappeared from this world.

The woman silently observed everything.

She sighed, then muttered: "How unbelievable, I never thought I would be able to see that with my own eyes"

"If she's able to escape the shadows of death and survive…"

The woman's voice suddenly contained a bit of expectation and unease.

…

An endless ocean.

Su Xue Er was standing on a floating wooden plank.

Extending her sight forward, there was nothing but endless ocean stretching all the way until the horizon in all directions.

There was no land.

Only an area filled with fog in the South.

Aside from that, there was nothing else.

"Where… am I?"

Su Xue Er was very shocked.

Just one second before, she was still sitting in the wooden cabin on top the North Pole mountain, talking to the Guardian of the 9 Lords; and the next she's here.

The sunlight pierced through the black clouds, reflecting onto the ocean surface and glittered.

Su Xue Er looked up at the sky.

Luckily, the clouds happened to drift away, revealing two dimly shining Suns.

Seeing that, Su Xue Er was even more shocked.

"This isn't my original world anymore" she muttered.

[Ting]!

A chime.

Then lines of text appeared in front of Su Xue Er's eyes.
