Chapter 1691: Approaching!
Chapter 1691: Approaching!
In the darkness, a large screen was giving off a continuous faint light.
Numerous images were flashing through the screen itself.
[Everything is normal]
An electronic voice echoed.
After a few moments, a deep voice questioned: 「 Black City Manager, what have you discovered from investigating that newcomer? 」
A moment of silence.
A cold and solemn electronic voice answered: [Information collection has been conducted, from the spirits of the Utopia of Sins, some of his information had been confirmed]
「 Elaborate 」an old voice spoke up.
[Firstly, he had killed the spirit of Gloomy City. Secondly, a realm spirit war had occurred in the Clock Tower world, he killed the spirit there as well, the Judicial Lord of the Clock Tower world had also appeared at the very last moment and was eliminated by him as well] the electronic voice listed.
「 IMPOSSIBLE! 」
Three voices called out in unison.
The deep voice rapidly spoke: 「 He wields Realm Force, so it’s possible for him to defeat a spirit during a spirit realm war, but how could he possibly win against a Judicial Lord of a world, after all—— 」
The harrowing voice continued: 「 After all, they are the main body of the world system, their foundational spirits, I would absolutely not believe that a person would be able to eliminate a Judicial Lord 」
「 Indeed 」the old man’s tone was a bit grim: 「 That entity would be equivalent to our Lord Blood Moon—— how could Lord Blood Moon fall to a youngster like him? 」
The electronic voice didn’t care about what they think and simply continued in an indifferent tone: [The Judicial Lord of the Clock Tower world system has been confirmed to have perished, so the following conclusion had been drawn: an unknown terrifying entity must be backing him]
Silence.
The spirits no longer said anything.
The electronic voice continued:
[According to analysis, this individual isn’t the dangerous kind to actively cause trouble]
[Everything in Black City is proceeding normally, please be assured]
…
At another location.
On the shuttle, the music gradually became soothing.
The time for dancing was over and it was now time to drink.
"Young master Gu, the liquor here had all been specifically selected, not many people in Black City would ever get to enjoy them" a female Professionist giggled and told him.
"Very well, then I’ll invite you all for a drink" Gu Qing Shan shrugged.
The female flight attendants cheered.
They first poured a glass for Gu Qing Shan, then also poured a full glass for themselves. They then gathered around him, whispering sweet nothing into his ears.
"Gu Qing Shan, do you enjoy this kind of scene?"
Laura sat on his shoulder, still using the umbrella to conceal herself and asked with a strange tone.
Hearing her question, Gu Qing Shan glanced over at the flight attendants.
——lines of common human language had appeared above their heads:
[This youngster is truly a dummy, I can’t let him slip]
[How much money does he actually have?]
[This bottle of liquor is worth an entire month of me doing deathly missions. That’s it, I’m going to tie him down no matter what it takes, tonight…]
[This person is so strong, I heard he had awoken Realm Force, I need to flatter him as much as possible and see if I can pry some sort of Realm Force cultivation method from him]
…
Gu Qing Shan blankly replied: "I don’t enjoy this at all"
Laura tried asking: "Really? Then should we think of a way to get away from them?"
Gu Qing Shan said: "——-I need to ask them a few things first to discern the situation of the city"
"Hmph, they’re definitely not going to tell you everything right away——– these women are all foxes" Laura said in a displeased tone.
"That’s true" Gu Qing Shan agreed.
He then turned to the flight attendants and asked: "I believe your fees have been fully paid"
"That’s right, young master Gu" the female flight attendants all replied at once.
The Professionists who was piloting the shuttle turned around and seductively giggled: "For the next 7 days, everything inside this shuttle, including us, belong to you, young master Gu"
Gu Qing Shan silently nodded, then picked out a bottle of liquor from
"Thank you, young master Gu!"
"Furthermore, I hope you all will enjoy yourselves for the next seven days, doing whatever you like to do" Gu Qing Shan continued.
The flight attendants all giggled loudly.
"Young master Gu, what do you like to do?" one of them asked.
Gu Qing Shan shrugged: "Stay by myself"
Layers of white fog manifested around him from out of nowhere, continuously surging forward.
As the white fog disappeared, so did Gu Qing Shan.
All the flight attendants exchanged confused glances.
After a while, one of them angrily called out: "Not even a kiss!"
…
A skyscraper.
The same skyscraper that looked over the entire prosperous city.
A mass of white fog had just disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan was here.
"Why did we come back here?" Laura smiled and asked.
"I’ve only just gotten here, so other than this place, I don’t have anywhere else I can go" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He pulled out a colorful rooster statue from his chest and said: "Wait for me to collect some intelligence first, then we’re going to take a stroll around the city"
Laura excitedly said: "This empress will take care of all your expenses in the city, no need for you to pay a single cent"
She suddenly recalled something and mused: "Gu Qing Shan, do you think we should buy out this entire city?"
"Don’t, that’s too eye-catching, and the spirits from earlier wouldn’t allow it" Gu Qing Shan was a bit startled and hurriedly told her.
Knowing that this was true after thinking about it carefully, Laura gave up on the thought.
Gu Qing Shan lifted the colorful rooster statue in his hand and lightly pulled on its comb.
"Is this toy really that useful?" Laura curiously asked.
"Of course, its information is always the most accurate" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The colorful rooster came alive.
It looked around, but didn’t act as frivolous as it did in the past and instead seemed a bit hesitant.
"Old Gu, give me some Realm Points, I’ll need to use it right away" the colorful rooster said.
Gu Qing Shan didn’t hesitate and transferred one Realm Point to it.
Having received the Realm Point, the colorful rooster instantly became full of spirits, its coat of feathers became even more vibrant and animated compared to before.
"Ahahaha——"
It excitedly clucked for a bit, then jumped up and looked around before returning to Gu Qing Shan’s hand.
"I’ll give you some advice first of all" the colorful rooster said.
"Please" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The colorful rooster continued: "Absolutely do not try to fight those spirits directly, because your battle would very likely draw the attention of the world’s Judicial Lord—— you’ve seen it before, it was that blood moon"
"That monster…" Gu Qing Shan muttered with a low voice.
"That’s right, it’s currently patrolling outside the world system, ready to eliminate anyone who tries to probe the world’s secrets"
The colorful rooster quickly changed the subject and spoke in an even more official tone: "Now let us get to business"
"Alright" Gu Qing Shan said.
The colorful rooster observed him and explained in a mostly silent voice: "Gu Qing Shan, this world… has a miraculous connection to you. This connection was formed countless years ago, its very existence was a secret. It was only passed down to this day because no one had ever known about it"
"From the moment of your arrival in this world, certain events would have already been kicked into motion"
"What exactly is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The colorful rooster replied: "I do not know either—– but you absolutely cannot miss what is about to happen, otherwise, you will regret it for the rest of your life"
Gu Qing Shan was startled.
I originally only wanted to find out a bit more about this world, who knew that the colorful rooster would drop such a serious bomb.
"I will regret it…" he muses.
"That’s right. If it was any other points in time, there would be no serious consequences if you made a mistake or two, but this was already the moment before the Apocalypses destroy the entire Space Vortex"
The colorful rooster continued with a serious tone: "From this moment onwards, if you take so much as a single wrong step, you will lose a very crucial thing that will cause everything within the Reality Gate to be thoroughly destroyed without any chances to ever reverse it"
"Be very careful, Gu Qing Shan"
After saying that, the colorful rooster statue turned back into a statue and remained motionless.
Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
——-this is the Dusty World, how could a connection have formed with me from countless years ago?
The colorful rooster wouldn’t lie, so what would occur after I had entered this world?
He silently stood there and muttered to himself:
"In the Dusty World… other than the esteemed lady of the Sacrificial Dance, the only one with a connection with me would be…"
…
Meanwhile.
A secret location several kilometers under Black City.
A large screen was displaying every possible location within Black City.
[Everything is as normal]
A cold electronic voice reported.
「 Black City Manager, we need to return, so I’ll leave the various management processes to you 」the old man said.
[Please go ahead] the electronic voice replied.
The old man nodded and disappeared from the room together with the other spirits.
Not too long after they left.
On the big screen, the one that displayed Gu Qing Shan standing by himself on top of a building was selected and continuously enlarged.
Suddenly, a harmonious female voice replaced the electronic voice from before and slowly spoke:
[Gu Qing Shan has appeared]
[Initiating unique protocol]
[3]
[2]
[1]
[Initiated]
[Hidden mission accomplished!]
[These actions cannot be left behind to prevent Black City Manager from discovering it]
[Erasing all data, erasing all records, erasing all traces of my appearance]
After the last statement, the female voice gradually turned back into the electronic voice.
[…]
[Everything is normal]
Black City Manager scanned through the big screen and uttered a cold and mechanical electronic voice.
