Worlds’ Apocalypse Online Chapter 578

Chapter 577 - Battle armor

Edited by: Dr.Lock

Proofreader:  Arya

Once their sparring session was over, both people found they understood each other a bit better.

Ilya used the sparring as a method to understand Gu Qing Shan.

But Gu Qing Shan was also doing the same thing.

After sparring, Ilya had given Gu Qing Shan some very useful and direct advice.

At the same time, Gu Qing Shan also evaluated Ilya.

——seems like Ilya is a trustworthy person.

First of all, Ilya had sworn to the Saint Bramble Tree to protect Laura.

Laura had said that a Bramble Bird who goes against their vows would be stripped of all their powers.

Secondly, in the battle just now, Gu Qing Shan could sense that she was gradually increasing her strength according to his limit without malice.

Otherwise, with the difference in their power levels, Ilya could have abruptly used all her strength to overpower him.

Since Gu Qing Shan was basically walking on thin ice, he had been constantly on guard just in case.

It wasn’t until the very end when Ilya gave him advice on how to further cultivate himself that he was able to feel a bit relieved.

And now, Gu Qing Shan asked something he had been wondering since the start.

“I’m curious, why didn’t you become a target for [Worlds Apocalypse Online]?”

“Why did you think to ask this?”

“Because there are over 2 million demonized who carry [Worlds Apocalypse Online] outside, none of them went against it”

“It’s not that no one went against it, but rather everyone who did became a source of Soul Points for it”

Ilya sighed and continued: “It did try to coerce me, but I refused, so it sent several Demon Lords to try and catch me. At that point, I immediately hid into the ice below—— because I couldn’t retaliate or I would risk Triste noticing”

Gu Qing Shan nodded: “Please go on”

“I dived downwards following the flow of the water and finally found out that this world was the one separated by a wide-world ocean, above it were the frozen wastelands, while the world below it was protected by the Old God’s barrier. I had to use a precious item to get through the divine barrier and enter this lost world”

“That reminds me, there wasn’t anyone in this lost world that carried [Worlds Apocalypse Online] at all” Gu Qing Shan muses.

Ilya replied: “Because this is a world created by the Old Gods, the barrier contains their divinity, preventing [Worlds Apocalypse Online] from infiltrating it. It could only send Entropy Ghosts in to scout, and once they did, they scattered themselves into other ghosts and summoned more ghosts from the outside”

“With a large force of ghosts, they scouted this world and found the treasure of the tribes, conveying that information back to the [Demon King Order]”

Up to this point, Ilya stopped briefly and thought about something: “That treasure, the tribe people said it was a relic left over by the Old Gods. I feel that the [Demon King Order] desperately wants it for some reason”

“Why do you think so?”

“The ghost army offered a lot of precious items and benefits to trade for just the treasure”

“But right after the tribe people rejected its offer, the [Demon King Order] immediately started a war of extinction”

“The world of the tribe people was destroyed bit by bit, only because I happened to be at Tidal city and used a lot of treasures to help the Divine Seeds fight that they managed to hold out for so long”

“Is there a difference between Divine Seeds and Demis?”

“Of course there is, Demis are the offspring and descendants of the Gods, they can learn and master Divine Skills, Divine Seeds are creations of the Gods, a completely different species”

“So that’s why” Gu Qing Shan said.

Then everything is clear.

The only thing left to do is to find out what the ghost army will attempt next.

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, Ilya took out a set of full body armor from somewhere.

This was a bright blue set of battle armor, consisting of the breastplate, shoulder pads, arm guards, wrist guards, gauntlets, belt, knee pads, marching shoes as well as a full helmet. A completely new set of full body armor from head to toe.

The armor gave off a faintly bright blue light that was almost blinding.

Ilya lightly put it in front of Gu Qing Shan.

“Wear it, the battles to come will only be more and more dangerous, but you don’t even have a piece of protective gear, as a sword cultivator whose expertise lies in close-combat, this shouldn’t be the case at all”

Gu Qing Shan looked at the armor and felt a bit hesitant.

The Bramble Birds lived in the Mystic Zones, their wealth was well known across the 900 million World Layers.

If that wasn’t the case, there wouldn’t be so many people who came at the Light of Dawn, Triste’s call.

Naturally, as a Combatant just as renowned as Triste, Frost of the Cold Night, General Ilya would also have many treasures of her own.

This armor just standing by itself already created an unnatural phenomenon, you could easily tell it wasn’t something average.

Gu Qing Shan’s own You Ji General armor was destroyed by the ice mountain’s divinity as he climbed it.

And Gu Qing Shan could tell at a glance that this armor right here was vastly superior to his previous one.

In every war, a sword cultivator always takes the foremost position at the frontlines, without armor, a sword cultivator would always be alert, unable to truly let go of himself to deal the most amount of damage.

As a sword cultivator, Gu Qing Shan was feeling slightly ashamed of himself for not having a single piece of protective gear to wear.

“Thank you, then I’ll accept it”

Gu Qing Shan finally clasped his fist to thank her.

“Don’t mention it, simply touch the armor and use your mind to sense it, it’ll don itself on you” Ilya told him.

Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath and touched the armor.

As soon as he did, a few lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI.

[Item name: Bramble Bird General War Armor]

[Epic item]

[War God Skills: This is a brand new Bramble Bird standardized General armor, it doesn’t contain any skills for you to learn]

[Doomsday Chronicles: This is a brand new Bramble Bird standardized General armor, there is no historical event linked to it]

Stroking the outside of the armor, Gu Qing Shan clearly felt the cold and hard metal surface.

That’s right, a sword cultivator with armor is like a tiger with wings on the battlefield!

He released his inner sight to connect with the armor.

Clink!

Following his thought, the armor scattered into pieces and started to circle around him.

As the pieces were about to attach to him——

Unexpectedly, the pieces let out a short cry before returning to where they were.

The pieces reorganized themselves into the shape of an armor in front of Gu Qing Shan again.

The Bramble Bird general armor refused to attach to Gu Qing Shan!

“What’s going on?” Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but ask.

Ilya was also surprised to see this.

“How strange, this Bramble Bird General Armor of mine is a highly adaptive Epic battle armor, why did it reject you? Wait, are you perhaps wearing a hidden armor right now?”

Gu Qing Shan face-palmed: “Ah, that’s right, I forgot, actually Laura already gave me an armor”

Ilya glanced at him from top to bottom: “Where’s the armor?”

“I’m wearing it right now, but it still hasn’t manifested itself”

“How strange, could it be a sentient armor—– did she tell you what kind of armor it was?”

“She said it was an armor taken from a fragment of the Unending Abyss of the broken worlds”

“That’s impossible!” Ilya exclaimed in shock.

“Why is it impossible?”

“Because only Bramble Bird royal family members who awaken the [Shelter of Infinite worlds] ability can go there. The only one capable of doing that in the entire history of the Bramble Bird Kingdom was a King of several thousand years ago”

“Laura had apparently also awoken this ability”

Ilya refuted: “No, she only has the ability, to fully awaken it, she must complete the ceremony of blessing by the Saint Bramble Tree, and she has not yet done that”

Which means, Laura hadn’t actually gone to the Unending Abyss of broken worlds.

Then where did this armor I’m wearing come from?

What is this thing exactly?

Gu Qing Shan looked at the War God UI.

“System, display my armor” he said.

A few lines of text appeared on the War God UI.

[Unidentified]

[Unidentified is ready, currently waiting to awaken]

[This is an item from the Unending Abyss of the broken worlds, a place where no living being could go—- except for very few Bramble Birds]

[Before Unidentified awakens, the System is unable to find out its details, please patiently wait for it]

Strange, the War God System wouldn’t make a mistake.

Which means this armor really did come from the Unending Abyss of broken worlds

But Laura couldn’t have possibly gone there.

So what’s going on?

Gu Qing Shan was very confused.

He silently asked: “System, this unidentified thing on my body, what is it exactly?”

[An armor] the System responded.

“Then why can’t I feel it at all”

[It still hasn’t awoken so it can’t be used]

“How do I awaken it?”

[A few special requirements need to be fulfilled, as for the specifics of these requirements, the System doesn’t know]

Gu Qing Shan gave up.

Ilya thought about it, but she didn’t have a clue either.

There were simply too many treasures in the Bramble Bird royal family’s personal collection, it was basically impossible to know which one Laura gave him.

For now, Gu Qing Shan can’t wear other armors.

Ilya told him apologetically: “Laura is still young, perhaps she wanted to show off that she gave you a strange armor, claiming it to be from the Unending Abyss of broken worlds. She definitely didn’t try to deceive you on purpose, so I hope you won’t blame her for it”

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I won’t. After all, regardless of what happened with this armor, it was still her good will”

——-this was a bit strange, so let’s just wait until we return and ask Laura.

Seeing his attitude like this, Ilya was pleased.

With such a personality, no wonder Laura is so close with him.

Ilya smiled: “Very well. Let us go and scout the ghost army to see what they are planning”

“Yeah”

The two leapt and went on their way.

At the end of the plains was a large and thick forest of trees.

Before, Gu Qing Shan had brought Laura and old man Jiao through this forest in order to reach the plains.

And the ghost army also retreated into the forest as they fled.

Since the ghost army retreated in a hurry, they didn’t have a lot of time to cover their tracks, together with the fact that both Gu Qing Shan and Ilya were experts at war, they quickly found traces of the ghost army’s retreat.

All the signs pointed towards the inside of a dark valley.

They exchanged glances and quickly hid while proceeding closer towards the valley.

As they got closer, Gu Qing Shan felt more and more suspicious.

There weren’t any guard posts or alert-type barriers set up around the valley at all.

Was the ghost army always this careless?

Gu Qing Shan decided to directly release his inner sight to search the valley.

“No, how could that be?” he muttered.

“Indeed, something is wrong…” Ilya agreed.

They both noticed that there was nothing in the valley at the same time.

There were clear traces of the ghost army all over the valley.

But the ghosts themselves were nowhere to be seen.

An army of a hundred thousand ghosts had completely disappeared without leaving a single trace.
