At the corner of the street.
The familiar bar.
As Gu Qing Shan was about to enter, a low roar resounded from the other end of the street.
Gu Suan explained: "Those are Man Eater Fiends that had just mutated, they're gathering to devour each other, preparing to evolve into — — -"
Gu Qing Shan drew her bow and shot an entire quiver of arrows in an instant.
A cacophony of desperate screams resounded.
A few lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[You've completed an Entropy Solution]
[You've killed the Apocalyptic monster: Man Eater Fiend fusion]
[You've completed an Entropy Solution]
[The power obtained from this Entropy Solution will pass through the limits of Space-Time and return to your body in Primal Chaos, turning into the corresponding true power of the Apocalypse]
Gu Qing Shan skimmed through and asked: "Suan, do you have a way to control these monsters?"
"They've only just been reborn, their strength still hasn't fully matured, I can catch some for you at any time" Gu Suan replied.
"Then catch some for me" Gu Qing Shan said.
— — -since I'm still in Primal Chaos, I definitely need the power of these Apocalypses.
"Yes, your excellency" Gu Suan replied.
Gu Qing Shan put her bow away, pushed open the door of the bar, and entered.
As soon as the door was closed, the noises outside were replaced by silence.
Soft music was playing.
Under the dim light, two people were sitting.
A muscular man with slicked-back hair.
A beautiful woman with shoulder-length fiery red hair and a slender figure.
Both of them looked at Gu Qing Shan with friendly smiles on their faces.
— — -what a scene I haven't seen in a long time.
Gu Qing Shan silently sighed, then walked forward and asked: "Just now, my shadow brought me here, I'm guessing you have something you need from me?"
The red-haired beauty stood up, extended her hand, and generously said: "Nice to meet you, I'm the eldest princess of Saint Orlank Empire, I was the one who specifically asked for you"
Gu Qing Shan shook her hand and said:
"Nice to meet you"
The sunglasses man with slicked-back hair also stood up, shook Gu Qing Shan's hand, and said:
"Nice to meet you, I'm Feng Huo De, you can call me Feng, or Huo De"
"You too."
Gu Qing Shan nodded and walked behind the bar, examining the wine on display.
"Let's have a drink first."
He searched for the wines in his memory and said without turning his head.
Anna and Von Holdt looked at each other.
Feng Huo De glanced at Gu Qing Shan, then quietly said: "He doesn't look right, should we follow the plan to persuade him, or directly kidnap him?"
Anna stared at the youth in front of her, then looked at the wine and whispered, "Wait, let's see what he wants to do."
Gu Qing Shan silently picked the wine, but a thought suddenly came to her mind.
Bang!
He placed the bottle on the bar counter and shouted, "Su An!"
"Sir, what is it?" Gu Suan asked.
"Ye Fei Li … the matter with the Man Killer Fiend has been exposed ahead of time — — you need to find him immediately!" Gu Qing Shan said.
"I've found him, please take a look at the projected screen"
Gu Qing Shan placed the communicator on the table. It projected a screen to show a specific scene.
A man was struggling on the ground, his eyes had turned blood-red, his fingers had become as sharp as blades.
"Kill … I want to kill everyone here …"
He stared at the fleeing crowd around him and roared.
It was Ye Fei Li.
Gu Qing Shan's expression tensed up and said: "Send me there"
"It takes two minutes to create a miniature warp device, it will immediately arrive at your location, sir" Gu Suan said.
— — she had only just returned from the future, so there were still a lot of things that she hadn't done yet.
Who knew that everything would happen so quickly this time, there was no way for her to predict it at all.
Two minutes …
Gu Qing Shan looked at the screen, only to see that Ye Fei Li had already turned around, looking at the other side of the business square.
There were quite a few people running away in panic.
"Running?"
Ye Fei Li smirked and headed straight for the crowd.
— — -there's no time!
Gu Suan's regretful voice came: "Sir, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop him from killing people in time, we can only wait for two minutes before we restrain him"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised, suddenly remembering the Age of Desolation.
"You've protected me all this time, passed down your teachings, earned a lot of Merit, what wish do you have for your next life?"
"I want to become a peerless expert"
"With your own hard work and the direction you work towards, you'll definitely become one of the strongest experts in that realm"
"If I become demonic again …"
"This time, I'm still not strong enough, but if you become demonic again in the next life, I'll definitely guide you back onto the right path"
Gu Qing Shan suddenly regained her senses and shouted: "Connect to his communicator!"
"Sir, even if he's a perfect Man Killer Fiend, he has already lost his sanity, he won't care about words"
"I know"
"Sir, no matter how you try to persuade him, he won't listen — —"
"Connect to his communicator!"
"Very well … sir, attention, Ye Fei Li's communicator has been connected!"
On the screen, while Ye Fei Li was charging towards a fat man, the communicator in his chest suddenly rang.
He was a bit surprised, then used one hand to form a sharp bone blade while the other to stop the fat man — — -
Gu Qing Shan grabbed her communicator and spoke in a low voice: "Attention, this is the 7th strongest player in the world, Ye Fei Li"
"— — The highest competitive game is about to release a new expansion pack, you've been selected as a beta tester to enter early, as soon as you arrive, you'll be arranged to be a Boss, one strike at the start of the game, equipment drops everywhere, every week you'll receive 50,000,000 diamonds, permanent VIP treatment — — -"
Gu Qing Shan's voice suddenly rose, shouting:
"Come, Ye Fei Li, the top 10 strongest players in the world have all joined the newest expansion pack!"
"Immediately recruit your brothers and sisters to rebuild the Guild, compete against the top players in the world — — do you want to become the strongest in the world? Answer me!!! "
Ye Fei Li was stunned in place, listening to these words, almost forgetting that she was holding an innocent fat man in her hand.
Gu Qing Shan covered the receiver and whispered: "Arrange everything for him"
Gu Suan replied: "Sir, I've completed the construction of the competitive game's expansion pack, I've already upgraded his account to the level you mentioned — — -"
The two of them looked at the screen at the same time.
Only to see a gentle female voice resounding from Ye Fei Li's communicator:
[Heehee, Hero Ye Fei Li, the arrangements for your beta tester status in the competitive game have been completed, please immediately log into your account and check out the newest expansion pack]
Ye Fei Li loosened his grip.
The fat man instantly broke free from his grasp, scrambling to run for his life.
Ye Fei Li didn't seem to notice at all, picked up the communicator and looked at his account.
"Expansion pack? Could it be that there's a follow-up storyline to my Legendary Quest? "
"Killing people … I'm not in a hurry, I need to see if my Profession has been nerfed or not …"
He muttered in a low voice, the redness in his eyes slowly receding.
On the other side, a small noise came from the bar.
Bam!
A small warp device appeared on top of the bar counter.
It was so simple that it looked like an old rice cooker.
[Time is limited, sir, please make do with it for now]
"Have you inputted the coordinates?"
"Just activate it and we'll be there"
"Got it!"
Gu Qing Shan looked at Anna and Feng Huo De — — -
Only to see that the two of them were already stunned.
"Please wait a moment, I'll go save a companion and return very soon" Gu Qing Shan apologized.
He pressed a button on the rice cooker.
Oong — —
Both he and the rice cooker disappeared without a trace.
The bar returned to silence.
"Huo De … did you see it?"
"I saw it, such a small warp device, your highness, you've really found a treasure"
"It's not the warp device, it's the person Gu Qing Shan — — - he can connect to Impartial Goddess and search any place he wants, you know what that means — —"
Before Anna could finish, a small disturbance came from the void of space.
Oong — — -
Gu Qing Shan held the rice cooker in one hand and the unconscious man in the other, once again landing behind the bar counter.
He put the man down on the sofa, walked back to the bar counter, rolled up his sleeves and began to mix a drink.
"Sorry about that, something unexpected happened, but it's fine now — — to celebrate the first time we've ever met, how about I treat you to a drink?"
Gu Qing Shan tried her best to speak with a calm tone.
This is the real timeline, and because she was trying to save Ye Fei Li, she can only pray that it won't affect Anna's decision.
She definitely can't return to the Holy Empire!
"Treat me to a drink? That's fine, I usually don't accept a man's drink, but it's fine to make an exception today "Anna smiled.
"It's my honor" Gu Qing Shan said.
He calmed himself down and began to seriously mix the cocktail.
Very quickly.
A glass of blood-red cocktail was placed on the table.
This drink looked like a burning flame, but if you look deeper into the boiling flame, you'll see nothing but an unfathomable dark abyss.
Anna looked down at the glass, then back up at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan's expression was full of reminiscence, as if the only thing left of her was a lonely body in front of the bar counter, while her soul was carried by a silent wind to an unknown faraway place, to experience things that will never be known to anyone.
"Drink" Gu Qing Shan regained her senses and smiled.
"What's this drink called?" Anna raised the glass.
"Scorpio Palace"
"Why is it called that?"
"Scorpio is the eternal and undying star in the sky, I will protect it forever"
"Protect the star … normally, shouldn't it be the star that protects all living beings?" Anna asked again.
"I've already been protected by Scorpio, now it's my turn to protect her" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
Anna stayed silent for a bit, then drank the entire glass.
Bitter, intense, burning.
Destruction, loneliness, sorrow.
Only at the end was there a hint of sweetness of longing.
After closing his eyes for a bit, Anna opened them again and looked at Gu Qing Shan.
"It's strange …"
"What is it?"
"I like you"
"I still have a few more glasses of liquor here, do you want some?"
"I do"
"Alright, then just sit here for 2 minutes, I'll be back soon"
"Where are you going?"
"Another world, if there's a chance, I'll take you there"
"What for?"
"To save that world, then immediately return, can you wait for me?"
"… If you're not crazy, I'll wait for you here"
"It's a deal."
As soon as he said so, a screen of light appeared around him and he disappeared without a trace.
