"Aaaargh!"
Three voices of different heights resounded in the silent night sky.
Boom!!!
A meteor landed outside the border town of Ramon at the border of the Duchy.
A young man, a woman, and a duck plushie appeared in the crater.
"Cough cough cough! Falling from so high up, it really hurts a lot "the duck plushie commented.
"Researchers like you always lack exercise" the woman commented.
She stood up, drew the rapier at her waist, and observed her surroundings.
A young male voice resounded: "I don't agree with that, research shouldn't interfere with physical training"
Gu Qing Shan.
The young man also drew his rapier and stood side by side with the woman.
A mass of blue starlight suddenly appeared in front of the three of them.
Countless voices resounded from within the blue starlight, speaking in unison:
"We have turned into the world's consciousness, doing our best to help the living beings of this world to triumph against the wraiths, monsters, and plagues"
"Strangers, please help us and this world"
"We have fixed the three worlds' language proficiency techniques for you, as well as the corresponding identities — —"
Three boxes descended from the sky, landing in front of Gu Qing Shan's group.
The voice continued: "However, you will need to accomplish something else in order to properly utilize this identity"
"— — -you will need to survive first"
After that, the blue starlight slowly disappeared.
The three of them exchanged glances, then looked at the boxes in front of them.
"Then, these boxes are the identities that the worlds have prepared for us?" Omaki asked.
"Survive?" Crow chuckled, then casually swung his rapier: "Isn't that looking down on us a bit too much?"
Omaki agreed: "That's right — — I'm a researcher of Void City's grand library, for someone to question my ability to survive in the wild, that's truly looking down on us"
Gu Qing Shan didn't say anything and simply looked at the void of space.
Lines of glowing text kept appearing.
[Time: Saint Spirit year 769]
[Location: Ramon town]
[The UI has sensed the rift of world fusion. Among the three fusing worlds, one of them will open the path of fusion]
[If you can survive, the living beings of this world will recognize your identity]
Gu Qing Shan thought for a moment and opened the box in front of her.
Inside was a will, a document to prove one's identity, a wooden bow and arrows.
Gu Qing Shan took the document and the will, read it carefully, and said:
"There's a new town built by pioneers here. Its owner has passed away. As the descendant of the pioneer leader, according to the rules, I have to arrive at the viscount's mansion in the prefecture within 10 days to complete the enfeoffment ceremony."
Gu Qing Shan holds the wooden bow in her hand and weighs it.
Crow kicked the box in front of him open, only to see a metal plate, a document, and a small bag inside.
"Why are my things different from yours?"
He took the iron plate out to take a look, only to see the word 'Crow' engraved on the front, and the silhouette of a woman on the back.
The document recorded her identity as a female knight, and the small pouch contained a bag of coins.
"Knight? Not bad. "
Crow put the coin away.
"Pioneers … it seems like you and Omaki are my guards, and we're the lowest aristocrats in this world" Gu Qing Shan analyzed.
"We probably need to climb up a bit faster to take control of this world as soon as possible" Crow clenched his fists and said.
"But this world is said to be the most powerful world, we still don't know what kind of social structure it is, so we need to observe it a bit more" Gu Qing Shan said.
Omaki patted his chest: "Whatever social structure, just leave it to me. I've studied many civilizations, so I'm quite familiar with such matters. I'm also an expert on how to quickly gain authority in any civilization — — I have almost 800 civilization strategies and 97 successful practical experiences"
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan and Crow both felt a sense of respect.
Crow said: "Omaki, quickly take a look at your identity, you might be able to help a lot!"
Omaki nodded: "Hm — — that's true, it's time to take a look at my identity, I'll use it to make a big deal out of it"
The duck plushie jumped up and opened the box in front of him with one of his wings.
Only to see that there was nothing else inside the box except a single card.
The duck picked the card up and looked closely, only to see two lines of text written on it:
[Toy: Duck plushie]
[Price: 1 copper coin]
The duck plushie held the card in his hand and froze for a long time.
A cold gust of wind blew past.
Looking at the duck plushie's pitiful back, Gu Qing Shan encouraged him: "Omaki, the power of knowledge is endless, cheer up!"
Crow also added: "That's right, the world spirit just now said that we need to survive first! Now is the time for us to be united, because a monster might show up "
Silence all around.
The young man and the duck plushie both turned to Crow and loudly shouted: "What did you say just now???"
Crow froze, then awkwardly replied: "After I turned into a woman, my mind was a bit messed up, so I forgot about the Art of Avoiding Calamity …"
A second later.
The night breeze blew past.
A low roar resounded from within the wind.
"Oh no — —"
"Wha — —"
Gu Qing Shan and Crow both drew their swords at the same time, but only managed to parry it.
Clang! Clang!
The two of them were sent flying, kicking up a large amount of dust along the way.
A giant wolf with blade-like feathers all over its body appeared where they had been standing.
A second later, Gu Qing Shan abruptly appeared and stabbed the wolf with her sword.
The wolf didn't back down and roared: 「 Die! 」
It opened its mouth and spat out a blinding mass of light — —
Boom!
Gu Qing Shan and Crow behind him were both sent flying.
The two of them tumbled in the air, stopping their retreat.
"It's not a normal monster, it knows how to fight two at once, it's intelligent" Crow commented.
"It can talk, most likely a guy from the extinct monster world" Gu Qing Shan commented.
"It's not very strong, so it can't hurt us, but its attack speed is too fast" Crow commented.
"I suspect that this isn't speed, but some sort of ability" Gu Qing Shan also commented.
The two of them quickly conversed, then suddenly went silent.
"Oh no, Omaki is — –" Gu Qing Shan's expression changed.
Omaki's strength lies in his knowledge and understanding of the world, but his combat prowess is far inferior compared to Gu Qing Shan and Crow.
And he's currently a duck plushie.
His life is in danger!
Gu Qing Shan and Crow both turned to where Omaki was — — -
Only to see the duck plushie leaning against the box, completely motionless.
It was holding a card in its mouth — —
[Toy: Duck plushie]
[Price: 1 copper coin]
The Giant Wolf sniffed it, then looked at it carefully and nodded.
「 A laughable dead object … 」 the wolf muttered.
It's just a dead object, there's no need to pay attention to it.
The wolf turned around to look at Gu Qing Shan and Crow.
It spoke full of mockery: 「 Come, humans, I can already sense the laughably weak power you carry. You are the weakest type of people in this world, perfect for my food 」
At the very next split second.
The wolf's body was abruptly enveloped in icy mist, causing it to temporarily be unable to move!
「 Laughable, you want to trap me like this? 」 the wolf roared.
It only needed one second to escape from this icy trap.
But would people like Gu Qing Shan and Crow give it that chance?
One sword was burning in flames, while the other was covered in lightning, both of them descended from above.
Boom!
Flames and lightning erupted into the sky!
The violent wind swept in all directions.
A breath's worth of time later, with a 'thud', the wolf's head fell to the ground.
"This world's Origin power and Laws are truly the strongest I've ever seen in my life" Crow commented.
"Why do you say that?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Crow pointed at the shallow crater on the ground: "When we fought with everything we had, if we were in a world with weaker Laws, we would have already caused damage to the world. But in this place, we were able to fight as we pleased without the world being damaged at all. This means that this world is extremely powerful, much more powerful than what we have"
Gu Qing Shan said: "So that's how it is. I heard that this is the most powerful world, combined with the fact that it had fused two other worlds, the power of its Origin power is probably beyond our imagination"
"We've already signed a covenant to not destroy the world — — - this way, we can fight without worrying about the world not being able to handle it" Crow put his sword away.
"Speaking of which — — it was fortunate that Omaki managed to set up the trap while it wasn't paying attention" Gu Qing Shan commented.
The two of them turned to Omaki.
He quickly ran over, spat on the ground, then kicked the wolf's head with all his might.
"What do you mean by 'laughable dead object'?"
"Fuck you, let's see who's the real dead object now!"
The duck plushie vented his anger.
Gu Qing Shan: "…"
Crow: "…"
"I suddenly thought of something — — with Omaki by our side, we'll be able to execute many tactics" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
Crow nodded in agreement.
