“Terrifying monsters that should have gone extinct?”
Gu Qing Shan and Crow exchanged glances.
“That’s right. We were no match for them at all, I really don’t know what was going on here” Yu Juan muttered in dejection.
“Since you were a researcher of the Void Library, please take a look for us——”
Saying so, Crow drew this rapier and flicked it a few tis in the air.
The images of a soldier wielding a shield and spear, a red-robed caster, an armored giant, and the three-headed dog appeared in the air one after another.
Gu Qing Shan explained: “These are the enemies we ran into; do you recognize them?”
Yu Juan glanced over: “All of them are entities belonging to the Saint Spirit world. It could be said that you were lucky to et them, as they’re all races that strictly adhere to the code of combat”
“What about you? What did your side run into?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“There were two groups of us on this side——– the first group consisted of 39 Combatants who were all pushed directly into an ocean and t an octopus monster, ending in a complete wipeout; I was part of the second group who ran into the Plague Apocalypse. I was barely able to hang onto my life, in fact, if you hadn’t saved , I would have already died as well”
After giving his answer, Yu Juan appeared dejected again.
Gu Qing Shan’s expression changed a bit and asked: “Did that octopus monster have a severed head in each of its suction cups?”
“That’s right” Yu Juan replied.
“What exactly was it?” Gu Qing Shan pursued.
“A void monster that should have already been eradicated in the flow of ti. Because of how powerful its abilities were, it was essentially undefeated in the space vortex, so it went to try and challenge the Inner Plane. After 70 days of nonstop combat, it was killed through the cooperation of the Deities and the Eternal Abyss” Yu Juan explained.
Gu Qing Shan said: “It’s a good thing that I ran away fast enough, otherwise I would have died as well”
“What’s the Plague Apocalypse?” Crow asked out of interest.
Yu Juan patiently explained: “The Plague Apocalypse is a kind of unpreventable bodily mutation, anyone can be infected by it, turning into Man Killer Fiends and Man Eater Fiends”
“We once conducted a reverse study of this Apocalypse, discovering that the Plague Apocalypse originally had over a thousand variations, capable of destroying countless worlds——– we were almost scared to death. Fortunately, this Apocalypse was in a constant weakened state and remained that way until it was destroyed”
“Over 1000 variations of the plague?” hearing that, Crow couldn’t help but click his tongue and comnted emotionally: “Sure enough, scholars like you really understand a lot”
Yu Juan dejectedly replied: “What good is it to understand them? The Apocalypse we ran into this ti was the over 1000 variations of that plague. It was so terrifying that everyone ended up dead”
“But you managed to survive thanks to the power of your knowledge” Gu Qing Shan comnted with a gentle voice.
“One of my previous thesis was the Plague Apocalypse, so I managed to survive the longest within that Apocalypse until you saved ”
ntioning that, Yu Juan felt a bit fortunate.
Gu Qing Shan’s focus turned elsewhere.
Why do I...
Feel like I’ve missed sothing?
He paced around inside the tower, silently pondering.
After a bit, he finally rembered.
——it was a conversation:
...
“You have already run into the Man Killer Fiends and Man Eater Fiends, yes?”
“I did”
“That was originally an Apocalypse from a parallel world. In that destroyed parallel world, there were not only the Man Eater and Man Killer forms, but rather over 1000 different mutated forms, so of which were simply irresistible and directly wiped out the infinite worlds”
“Although this Apocalyptic calamity managed to make it to our reality, it has already used up its power, leaving only the two forms of Man Eater Fiend and Man Killer Fiend”
...
That’s right!
Gu Qing Shan silently clenched his fist.
In the past, Lady Fusi once explained to the concept of ‘parallel world destruction and corrosion’.
She had ntioned this.
...countless overlapping worlds, a lost civilization, the Plague Apocalypse at its strongest.
Lady Fusi explained it this way:
...
“For the corpse of a parallel world and the Apocalyptic calamity it carries, it is extrely difficult to turn from a ‘parallel’ state to an ‘arrived’ state, that would cause it to use up a majority of its power”
“Those calamities would be greatly weakened by the ti they arrive in our reality, so they do not affect us too greatly—– under normal circumstances”
...
Under normal circumstances...
That was supposed to be the case under normal circumstances...
Could it be———
Gu Qing Shan felt a chill running down his back.
“The current ti is...” he muttered.
“Using the common denomination of ti in most civilizations, it’s currently 5PM, nearly evening” Crow answered.
Gu Qing Shan silently shook his head.
I wasn’t asking about that.
——-I used the power of the three coins to return to the mont of the Spire’s destruction and fought a decisive battle against the Soul Shrieker.
When the world of the Spire turned into a Temporal Oasis and continued heading towards the future, I used the [Distortion] ability of the coins to exit the Temporal Oasis, heading towards the beginning of the war between the Wraith realm and the Eternal Abyss.
At this point in ti, within the 900 million World Layers, Lin and I should have already run into Laura, the three of us on our way to return to the Bramble Bird Kingdom.
Indeed.
I should be right at this point in ti.
The ‘’ in the past should be arriving at the Bramble Bird Kingdom, et up with Ye Fei Li and Zhang Ying Hao, as well as eting with Boss for the first ti.
While the current entered Void City from the Tomb of Myriad Beasts thanks to the power of [Distortion], attempting to infiltrate the Wraith realm.
This was a pivotal point in the tiline.
At this pivotal point, the Fate Corrosion prepared by the Wraith realm for countless years had erupted from inside the Eternal Abyss.
The Eternal Abyss was forced to backflow into the 900 million World Layers and enter a desperate losing war against the Wraith realm.
——how did Lady Fusi explain this?
This is very crucial.
Hurry, I need to rember it!
Gu Qing Shan wracked his brains—–
“What’s the matter?” seeing his expression a bit strange, Crow doubtfully asked.
“It’s nothing, I’m pondering sothing very crucial, let’s talk later” Gu Qing Shan waved his hand dismissively.
He was trying his best to recall his conversation with Lady Fusi at the ti.
Suddenly, the scene reappeared clearly in his mind.
...
Lady Fusi started to explain:
“This parallel world was extrely powerful, it desperately wrestled against the Apocalyptic calamity, transcended the ‘parallel’ Law, fell into our Eternal Abyss and drifted around the Reality Gate”
“You an that within that parallel world because the Earth Creator was already dead and when the Earth Creator of our reality approached, it was forced to accept that fate as well?”
“That is so, child...”
...
Gu Qing Shan clenched his fist tightly.
We are currently not under ‘normal circumstances’.
——–the countless overlapping worlds, the lost civilization, the Plague Apocalypse at its strongest, could all of them have been byproducts of the Fate Corrosion?
If they all originated from that extrely powerful parallel world, everything would make sense.
“Did you co up with sothing?”
Observing his expression, Crow curiously asked.
Gu Qing Shan silently replied: “Not yet, only so conjectures. I don’t have any proof; it can’t be considered the truth”
——-but it is very likely to be.
The Apocalypse, the civilizations, the monsters.
Everything from that parallel world is descending upon our reality.
They were too powerful.
No one in this world would be their match.
Damn it!!!
Gu Qing Shan abruptly boiled with killing intent.
What exactly is the Wraith realm planning?
Not only do they want to win against the Eternal Abyss, but they also want to destroy this world?
Ding kling kling——
The sound of ringing.
Gu Qing Shan turned back, only to see that Yu Juan had taken out an ID card to check the content on it.
“That’s perfect, the situation here had caught the attention of the upper brass. Stronger Combatants of higher numbers will soon be dispatched for an all-out Void War” Yu Juan comnted.
“What’s an all-out Void War?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“When the infinite worlds of the void feel that voluntary missions are insufficient against the Apocalypse, they would fully cooperate, organize an army, and declare a war towards it” Yu Juan explained.
“Then, they seem to think that despite this being classified as Unsolvable, there’s still so hope that’s worth fighting for?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“That’s right”
Crow sighed in relief, then spoke: “It’s for the best. While we can still barely protect ourselves right now, there are too many enemies here. Later on, there might even——”
Gu Qing Shan’s figure disappeared where he previously stood.
Divine Skill, [Ground Shrink]!
He had rushed forward to block Crow’s mouth.
Crow appeared confused.
“Brother Crow, think of this as begging you. The current situation is too dangerous, so can you please not jinx anything?”
Gu Qing Shan said with a heavy heart.
