The Destiny Quest has been canceled, the War God Quest is now live.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the War God UI doubtfully.
— — -are there any differences between the two Quests?
A new icon lit up at the bottom of the War God UI.
This icon was behind [War God Skills], [War God Thaumaturgy], [War God Title], and [Doomsday Chronicles], becoming the fifth icon to light up.
Interestingly, this icon was different from the others, it depicted Gu Qing Shan wielding a sword in battle.
Following Gu Qing Shan's gaze, a line of text appeared above the icon.
[A new choice has been created and chosen]
[Your choice has been accepted by the System]
[The System's corresponding adjustments have been completed]
[From now on, wherever your sword points will be the System's Quest target]
[The System will set a different Soul Points usage state for each War God Quest according to the actual situation to assist you]
[In this War God Quest, you've obtained the Soul Points usage state: Ready]
[Ready: Whenever you gain a certain amount of Soul Points, you can choose a Skill to double the power of your next attack]
[After you've used Ready once, the Skill's power will return to normal]
[Description: Ready consumes a certain amount of Soul Points, the stronger the Skill, the more Soul Points it consumes]
[Special note: Ready can be stacked]
Reading the description of [Ready], Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and understood.
He couldn't help but silently praise it.
This really is a killer move.
If I'm constantly in the [Ready] state, I'll be able to multiply the power of a certain Skill.
But the key point is that as I gain more Soul Points, this multiplying effect can be stacked.
This way, the power of a certain Skill that I choose will gradually become more and more terrifying.
The only unfortunate thing is that this attack can only be used once before the Skill returns to normal.
While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, the [War God Quest] icon at the bottom of the UI glowed.
The first War God Quest has appeared.
— — this was a Quest created according to Gu Qing Shan's own will.
Lines of blood-red text appeared on the War God UI.
[This time's War God Quest's objective is to eliminate [Kindling]]
"For this mission, the system has provided the following mission description."
"This is the first time you've faced the [Demon King Order] since your rebirth. Fortunately, it hasn't been fully born yet"
[Worlds Apocalypse Online is still in its Kindling state. At this time, it is at its weakest and most primitive state, and it has yet to be activated]
"It needs to gather enough Soul Power to completely ignite its Kindling and level up."
"This is Worlds Apocalypse Online: Kindling"
"Due to your outstanding performance in the first act, Kindling will soon find you."
"It needs you to collect Soul Energy for it."
"What strategy do you have to deal with [Kindling]?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Adapt to the situation. The system will issue consecutive missions for Tinder based on its specific situation to complete the final mission objective."
"Please remember, the purpose of the Fire Seed is to collect Soul Energy, we must not let it collect enough Soul Energy."
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask: "If [Kindling] gathers enough Soul Points, what will happen?"
"[Kindling] will level up. [Worlds Apocalypse Online: Origin] will officially launch"
"The 30 million World Layers around Aboul will be enveloped by [Worlds Apocalypse Online: Origin], countless worlds will be forced to accept its enslavement"
"[Origin]? What's that? "
"Just like your past life"
Gu Qing Shan squinted his eyes.
He thought for a bit and said: "[Origin] … the living beings within can become stronger by killing the demons, but they will never be able to reach a certain level of strength, is that right?"
"No, it's actually the demons who kill living beings to level up, but at the same time, living beings will be enslaved by the [Demon King Order], unable to reach a certain level of strength to fight against the demons"
— — -if that's the case, it'll be a one-sided massacre.
Some of the demons might die at the start, but they'll be the ones to win in the end.
Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes and thought for a bit, then said: "I understand"
The War God System continued: [We will use a series of Quests to continuously fight against [Kindling] until we finally kill it]
[This is this time's War God Quest]
[After completing the War God Quest, you'll receive a gift from the System]
"What kind of gift?"
"A secret"
Gu Qing Shan smiled.
He suddenly asked: "War God System, you know so many things and have so many secrets, where did you come from?"
The System replied: [When a living being is too weak, the more they know, the more dangerous it will be for them]
Gu Qing Shan agreed with this.
He didn't ask any further.
Gu Qing Shan finally retracted his gaze and looked at the chat window in front of him.
[Congratulations, you've been chosen by heaven to be the pioneer, this is a gift from the Bramble Birds, please confirm to load the System]
[Confirm/Reject]
Because he didn't receive any response from Gu Qing Shan, the chat window was still hovering there.
Perhaps because he waited for too long, a new line of glowing text appeared:
[In 15 seconds, the [Kindling] System will be automatically loaded]
Reading this line of glowing text, Gu Qing Shan understood.
In the past life, the world he came into contact with was [Worlds Apocalypse Online: Origin].
[Kindling] was the original program of [Origin].
In order to upgrade it to [Origin], it had come to my side.
Gu Qing Shan held his sword tightly.
Without hesitation, he said: "I reject"
A new line of glowing white text appeared:
[Please state your reason for rejecting]
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
Before he could react, another line of glowing text appeared.
[From now on, if you refuse to load the [Kindling] System without any reason, you will not receive any rewards from the Bramble Birds]
[Because of that, please state your reason for rejecting]
Gu Qing Shan scowled.
He originally wanted to say 'no reason', but he couldn't.
This [Kindling] seems to have quite the temper.
Was it always like this, or did someone piss it off?
— – Gu Qing Shan naturally didn't know that Su Cher had used 'no reason' to reject [Kindling].
That was why [Kindling] had changed its strategy.
And now, Gu Qing Shan had to find a reason to reject it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to continue with the Bramble Birds' missions.
What kind of reason should I find?
…
After a bit of hesitation, Gu Qing Shan finally came up with an official reason.
Staring at the glowing text in front of him, he answered with a serious expression: "I can't read"
The white text on the screen trembled.
This reason seemed to cause more damage than 'no reason'.
At this point, the War God UI suddenly lit up.
A line of glowing text appeared on it.
[You can load [Kindling]
Gu Qing Shan hesitantly said: "It will use — — -"
[That's fine, as long as you don't give it Soul Points]
The War God UI continued: [If you don't load [Kindling], it will come up with countless ways to deal with you]
"If I load it, it won't deal with me?"
[Over a hundred million people have carried it, so once you accept it, it will no longer pay attention to you]
Gu Qing Shan asked: "Will it affect you?"
"It's still a newborn, I'm not afraid of it"
Hearing such a firm answer from the War God UI, Gu Qing Shan also straightened his back.
He hurriedly shouted at the glowing white text in the air: "Wait a minute!"
Just as the densely packed white words were about to retreat, they were pulled back by his shout.
All the white text disappeared, replaced by a large question mark in the air.
Gu Qing Shan questioned it: "What kind of attitude is that, you're running away because I can't read?"
The question mark trembled.
Obviously, it had never been in such a situation before.
[Kindling] didn't know how to react.
Gu Qing Shan helplessly asked: "Don't you know how to use voice?"
The question mark suddenly disappeared.
A voice resounded: [Congratulations, you've been chosen by heaven to be the pioneer, this is a gift from the Bramble Birds, please confirm to load the System]
[Confirm!]
Following Gu Qing Shan's choice, something seemed to have happened.
He stared closely at the void of space in front of him.
The War God UI turned into a transparent blue screen and shrunk in size.
A bright red UI appeared next to it.
This was an extremely simple, or perhaps even crude UI.
It couldn't even compare to [Worlds Apocalypse Online: Origin] in the past life.
This meant that the true [Worlds Apocalypse Online] hadn't been fully activated yet.
