Gu Qing Shan stared at the War God UI in surprise.
If the War God UI didn't mention it, he would've forgotten about it.
Lines of glowing text continuously appeared on the interface.
[You've completed the Unique War God Title Quest]
[You've obtained the Title]
[Attention, you can only equip one Title at a time]
[Unique Title: Starflame War God]
[Description: You managed to kill a powerful Demon Lord with your feeble strength, an unimaginable feat. You are so outstanding that you shine like a star in the sky, while your enemies desire to kill you, they desire to use your head as a stepping stone to achieve their glory]
This description … isn't there a bit of a problem?
As Gu Qing Shan read on, he felt a bit uneasy.
The subsequent prompts had already appeared, so he continued to read.
[Equipment Title: Starflame War God, you have obtained the Unique Skill: Conquer]
[Conquer: When you use this skill, all enemies you designate will be forced to attack you due to a valid reason.]
[Description: This Skill is a Mystic-type Skill, a cause-and-effect Skill, cannot be exempted]
[Description: To conquer or to be conquered, that is the question]
Gu Qing Shan seriously read through and fell into thought.
From the description, this Skill cannot be exempted, so it's quite impressive.
But why would there be such a Skill?
I'm actively letting enemies attack me? Do I have nothing better to do?
He silently thought about how to use this Skill in battle.
Hm, if a monster bites me, I'll activate this Skill to make another monster bite me as well.
No, that's not right.
Hm, if a monster bites someone, I'll activate this Skill to make the monster bite me instead of anyone else.
… Is that a good idea?
Gu Qing Shan glanced at Lola.
Seeing Gu Qing Shan standing still, Lola felt it was a bit strange.
She asked: "Ah? What are we standing here for? Aren't we going to take a look? "
"That's right, we're going to gather some information right now"
While saying that, Gu Qing Shan equipped the [Starflame War God] Title.
— — rather than just thinking about it, I might as well give it a try and see just how effective this skill is.
With that in mind, he quietly activated the title's skill on Lola.
Pa!
Without any warning, Lola slapped Gu Qing Shan's face.
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
Lola was stunned.
The two of them looked at each other.
Gu Qing Shan stared at Lola. "Aren't you going to explain?"
Lola hurriedly raised her hand and said, "Just now, I seemed to have seen a small bug sticking to your face, so I couldn't help but want to help you get rid of it."
Insects?
How can I not know when a bug is on my face?
Gu Qing Shan helplessly asked: "Then, did you kill that insect?"
"Hahaha, sorry, my eyes were playing tricks on me. There were no insects at all."
Lola also felt embarrassed and quickly apologized with a smile.
Since the little girl had apologized, what else could Gu Qing Shan do?
Not to mention, he was the one who activated the skill.
He could only begrudgingly say: "It's fine, just look carefully next time"
… what a sorrowful skill.
Indeed, this was a Causality Skill, a true Mystic-type skill.
Just like the skill's description said, the other party would attack Gu Qing Shan for a certain reason.
But the result of this skill wasn't what Gu Qing Shan wanted.
Gu Qing Shan silently removed the [Starflame War God] title and decided to temporarily seal it.
He then switched to the [You Ji General] title that increased his attack speed and locked it on himself. Only then did he feel a bit better.
"I'm sorry, I usually don't act so rashly, it was a bit strange" Lola also felt that her actions just now were a bit strange.
"It's fine"
Gu Qing Shan didn't want to talk about what happened just now anymore.
Lola tried to salvage the situation: "Seeing how tired you were, how about we ride a horse instead?"
"That's fine"
Lola took out the Purgatory Fiend mount whistle and blew it.
The black horse appeared from the void of space in front of them.
"Are you in a hurry, or are you going for a stroll?" the black horse asked.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask: "This lost world is protected by the Old Gods' barrier, how did you get here?"
"The Law of Summoning, 5th rule, 3rd rule" the black horse replied.
It looked at Gu Qing Shan like he was looking at a country bumpkin.
Lola explained: "It's like this, because both the summoning tool and the summoning incantation are within this world, it's recognized as a request from within this world, different from a visitor from outside"
"In other words, you can only come if I let you, if I don't, the barrier will automatically recognize you as an invader and attack you accordingly?"
"Indeed, this is the Law of Summoning between worlds, as well as a rule set by the Old Gods in the Age of Old"
"Alright, I understand."
Gu Qing Shan carried Lola up the horse and looked around.
There was nothing in front of them but a plain.
The city was behind them.
This place was very secluded, a place that Gu Qing Shan had specifically chosen to stay hidden.
But now that they've already fought, there's no need to hide their tracks anymore.
"Are you in a hurry, or are you going for a stroll?" the black horse asked again.
Gu Qing Shan very seriously explained: "We're not going for a stroll, nor are we in a hurry. In truth, we're here to explore this unknown world, because there might be danger at any time"
The black horse nodded and said: "I understand"
It followed the blue road and quietly ran towards the city.
There was no sound along the way. The black horse's movements were also quick and silent.
Gu Qing Shan was a bit confused, so she took a closer look.
At some point, the black horse's hooves had been wrapped with thick pads.
— — which was why it didn't make a single sound while running.
"My destination is the center of the city, do you have any objections?" the black horse asked.
"No, thank you" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The black horse galloped with large strides, and soon reached the main road.
As the black horse moved forward, strange scenery appeared in front of their eyes.
This time, Gu Qing Shan and Lola finally saw what this world looked like.
The ground of this world was mottled with green, only a few buildings and roads were blue.
The buildings that represented civilization all looked like giant corals, clustered around the main road.
But no sound could be heard from inside these buildings.
Gu Qing Shan tried to release her inner sight into one of the rooms, only to find a strange scene inside.
Three people were sitting in front of a table, apparently discussing something. Another person was carrying a few cups of water towards the three of them.
They maintained their posture with a worried expression on their faces, seemingly normal.
But they didn't move at all.
Gu Qing Shan waited a bit longer before she understood.
Just like the two people from before, these people were all dead.
He had died without a sound.
Gu Qing Shan expanded her inner sight and scanned all the coral buildings around them.
There were people everywhere inside the coral buildings.
These people were eating, walking, running, talking, all of them maintained the same posture as when they were alive.
Their expressions were extremely lifelike, as if they didn't know that they were already dead.
"Gu Qing Shan, why can't we find anything?" Lola asked.
"Hm, I don't know either, we might need to walk a bit further towards the center of the city" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He didn't want to tell her the truth, afraid that it would scare the little girl.
However, this kind of white lie was quickly shattered.
The black horse maintained a constant speed on the main road.
More and more people with light blue skin appeared on both sides of the road.
More and more people appeared.
