Chapter 1531 - Sudden change
Chapter 1531: Sudden change
The swarm of insects uttered a series of loud vocalizations as they continuously clashed against the [Human Regiment] army.
In the sky, the fight of the Abyssal monsters against the Apocalypse also quickly reached a critical point.
Reneedol was calm.
Even though Gu Qing Shan had said to her face that she was even less than a dog, her expression showed no anger whatsoever.
“…Even after talking so much, you’ve still made an incorrect calculation” she casually said.
“What would that be?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“I feel like I need to explain, ever since the day my body was taken over, I’ve been deeply enlightened on how drastically this world would change, and how hard it would be for a single person to survive within it, and so—— why should we all be restrained by normal morals and emotions? Isn’t the meaning of our existence to simply survive and live longer than anyone?”
Reneedol seemed to be interested enough in this matter to scatter the starlight around her body and continued: “Stealing or robbing, none of that matters at all. At the edge of survival, even if these actions are immoral, they can guarantee your own survival——- and that is the correct path of survival within the Apocalypse. It was because I was able to achieve this that I was able to take everything for myself and gain the power I do today”
“For survival, I’ve made more preparations compared to any of you, I’ve even gone to the void——-”
At this point, she suddenly stopped talking.
Gu Qing Shan shook his head: “Regarding the meaning of our existence, I’m afraid I won’t be able to nod to your views”
Reneedol’s expression shifted slightly, causing the two Deities of Fate to kneel on one knee next to her with an expression of respect.
The dark featureless humanoid face behind her opened its mouth towards Gu Qing Shan and Boss.
The two of them were immediately unable to move.
Gu Qing Shan turned to the War God UI.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared in the void of space:
[You’ve been inflicted with Fate Nightmare, temporarily unable to move]
Reneedol casually reached her hand forward——
Boundless starlight gathered at her fingertips to manifest a giant flail.
She exuded violent killing intent, but calmly spoke:
“Look at you, you’re unable to even move in front of me”
“Following your deaths, your weak and delusional thinking will disappear to history”
Suddenly, someone called out: “[Weapon Prohibition], flail!”
A Card was thrown forward, turning into light that enveloped Reneedol’s body.
The giant flail in Reneedol’s body immediately disappeared.
Little Dusk held up a full hand of Cards as she stepped in front of Gu Qing Shan and Boss, telling Reneedol: “Big sister, please don’t do this. In reality, if we just band together, there wouldn’t be anything that we’re afraid of”
Reneedol’s expression displayed a wary look and muttered:
“I almost forgot, my Fate was to become the companion of the strongest, while your Fate was to triumph against all enemies…”
“Then I’ll kill you as well!”
After saying so, Reneedol’s body shifted forward to fly.
——–but she didn’t move at all.
Reneedol appeared surprised, and tried moving her body again.
——-she was still stationary.
She discovered that she wasn’t able to move!
“Dragon Hex?” Boss silently asked.
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
[Azure Dragon Origin Hex – Binding] had already taken effect.
Gu Qing Shan crossed his arms and told Reneedol: “Now that you can’t move just like us, victory won’t necessarily be on your side”
A dark shadow suddenly flew out from behind him and shot towards Reneedol.
Scarlet!
Her entire body was clad in boundless black flames as she swung her Scythe of Death.
Fwoom——
Black flames swept through the world, directly enveloping the swarm of insects, the two Deities of Fate, Reneedol, as well as the featureless humanoid face.
Scarlet then flew back and landed next to Little Dusk.
“Dusk, don’t hold such wishful thinking, she’s trying to kill all of us right now” Scarlet said.
Little Dusk appeared hesitant and struggled: “But she’s my blood-related sister, I can’t kill her”
Scarlet took out a bottle of alcohol and tilted her head back to drink it all and said:
“Beat her up first, then re-educate her”
This time, Little Dusk was convinced, so she wielded the [True Crimson Demon Spear] and looked seriously towards the sea of black flames.
“You two——” Gu Qing Shan suddenly called out.
The two girls both turned around towards him.
Gu Qing Shan solemnly told them: “Don’t hold back. Her power is even beyond your imagination, you have to prepare to defend right away—— we first need to try and protect ourselves”
Scarlet was surprised, then approached Gu Qing Shan and helped him wipe the sweat from his forehead.
“Why are you sweating so much?”
She asked in shock, then turned to Boss.
Only to see that Boss was completely pale, his head soaked in sweat, even his body was trembling slightly.
“Just a hunch—— a very bad hunch, but we don’t know what it entails yet” Boss explained.
Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then said: “Little Dusk, Scarlet, something is happening right as we speak. I don’t know what it is, but the two of you can’t let your guard down at all, otherwise, you can lose your lives at any moment”
Scarlet and Little Dusk exchanged glances, then retreated and stood around to protect them.
A sword appeared.
Shannu whispered: “Gongzi, should I undo the restraining technique now?”
“Wait a moment, I need to watch what happens next” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Hoh——–
The sea of black flames was suddenly scattered in every direction.
Reneedol stood in the very middle, still unable to move.
But a dark barrier had appeared from her dress armor to protect both herself and the two Deities of Fate.
“Clotho, Atropos, you two deal with these girls” she ordered.
“”Understood”” the two Deities of Fate replied.
Clotho then whispered: “Be careful, there is a sword on the other side that can cancel your Apocalypse summoning technique”
Reneedol nodded, then told the thing behind her:
“You go and take care of those strange things fighting against the Apocalypse”
The dark featureless humanoid face disappeared from behind her.
A dark halo appeared in the sky.
This halo moved rapidly, none of the Abyssal monsters were able to stop its movement as it passed through them.
Corpses fell from the sky one by one.
Scarlet and Little Dusk faced the two Deities of Fate.
At this point, Reneedol looked at Boss and appeared sarcastic: “How truly unexpected, I’ve constantly remained at Shroud’s side, so I didn’t think he still had such a trump card hidden away at all——- it seems we’re the same”
Boss didn’t answer, or try to explain himself.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
How sorrowful for a broken heart.
Reneedol believes that Boss had deceived her, and Boss doesn’t want to explain anything to her, so no one would be able to change Reneedol’s thoughts.
In truth, if the two of them hadn’t returned from the future, how would Shroud have access to an [Order]?
Boss casually said: “Neither of us can move right now, so consider this a tie and leave with your subordinates. There’s no need for us to meet again after this”
“Hand over the third Divine Artifact of Fate” Reneedol said.
“I don’t have it” Boss replied.
“Do you think I’d believe that?” Reneedol said.
She reached her hand out to gather starlight.
Right as a long-handled weapon was about to form, Little Dusk’s voice resounded:
“Bis sister, stop fighting, or I will continue to seal your weapon!”
Reneedol froze, then scattered the starlight in her hands.
Her expression was frighteningly frigid.
——that’s right, Little Dusk is able to seal my weapon, regardless of how I try, I wouldn’t be able to stop this.
“I’ve never thought that someone would be able to completely seal away someone’s sword with a single Card. But what makes you think I don’t have a trump card of my own?” Reneedol calmly declared.
Gu Qing Shan slowly felt a heavy sense of unease.
Reneedol continued: “My Fate was to become the companion of the strongest, but outside of this world, there were other powerful hidden entities in the void, and I’ve spent a lot of effort in order to form mutually beneficial relationships with them”
She then began to recite the covenant: “They who hide in the void and endure the eternal ravages of time, I know that you’re observing everything here. I hereby summon your descent to share the fruits of our upcoming success”
From the void of space, five spheres of light filled with the presence of vicissitudes and age swiftly manifested.
One of the sphere of light spoke:
「 Prepare a body for us, we shall divide everything of this world with you 」
“No problem”
Reneedol casually waved her hand and summoned the corpse of five Deities.
The two spheres of light quickly entered those bodies and disappeared.
The first Deity corpse opened its eyes and looked around, then spoke with a resounding voice: 「 I, the Judge of Living Beings Fate, had existed in the void for countless years. I’ve finally arrived in this sealed world as I wished 」
The second Deity corpse opened its eyes and looked greedily at the frost-covered ground.
『 Indeed. There is a corpse hidden here, its power frightens even me, but with our cooperation, we would definitely be able to absorb its power 』
The third Deity corpse opened its eyes, moved around a bit, then said: 「 Matriarch of Myriad Earths, I suggest that you be careful. That corpse under the ice isn’t to be trifled with, we will need a lot of time to prepare 」
“Everyone, deal with the problem first” Reneedol cut in.
「 Let’s discuss first, what is it that you want? 」one of the remaining Deity corpses asked.
“I only need the third Divine Artifact of Fate, the corpse under the ice is all yours” Reneedol replied.
『 Ah, if that’s the case, we shall accept your request 』the final Deity corpse spoke.
All five Deity corpses had returned to life.
Their presence gradually rose, then quickly surpassed everyone else’s presence.
『 Two strange ones 』the Matriarch of Myriad Earths glanced at Gu Qing Shan and Boss, commenting.
「 Indeed, their powers had never existed in the void of space, nor are they one of us 」the Judge of Living Beings’ Fate affirmed.
…
On the other side.
“Them?” Boss asked in a low voice.
He asked very curtly, but Gu Qing Shan understood what he meant.
“No, my spirit sense is telling me that it wasn’t them” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“Then what could it be?” Boss scowled.
“Don’t know” Gu Qing Shan answered.
A sword phantom appeared out of nowhere and circled around their bodies.
The technique restraining them was instantly dispelled.
“I truly didn’t think this world could become so chaotic” Boss wielded the black trident and spoke full of emotions.
“Be careful, I suspect the situation that our instincts were afraid of is going to happen very soon” Gu Qing Shan said.
He wielded the Earth sword in one hand and the Six Paths Great Mountain sword in the other.
Suddenly, lines of bloody red text appeared on the War God UI, rapidly flashing:
[Attention:]
[The Reality Gate had completely opened]
[Countless Apocalypses and fragments of the Samsara will soon descend]
[The Awaitings are approaching the Reality Gate!]
