Worlds’ Apocalypse Online Chapter 776

Chapter 778 - Capture

Translator: La0o9  Editor: La0o9

The Divine King’s voice faded.

The screen completely shattered into sprites of light that slowly disappeared.

Only a glowing piece of paper floated into Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

This was written on the paper:

[Two Divinities die, one Divinity is born, 7 days apart]

Poof!

After a few moments, the paper also scattered into sprites of light and faded away.

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.

Fortunately, the fact that a new Divinity would be born for every 2 Divinities that die wasn’t known to anyone but the Divine King.

That’s why no one noticed that in Cold Jade Forest, besides the Lord of Desolation, I had also killed a Divinity.

But——

The Golden Flame Divinity came from the future.

Perhaps he knows this secret.

If a new Divinity is born, he will definitely notice this fact.

I have to think of something…

Gu Qing Shan stood still for a long time until he was startled by a sound coming from the storage facility.

A rock pillar with complicated runes engraved all over it rose from the floor.

The pillar then scattered into many tinier rocks that floated in circles around a central point.

A rock cube was sitting at the central point, slowly rotating around itself.

A mechanical voice came from the Divine King Scepter again: [New Divine King, you may now retrieve the item]

Gu Qing Shan looked at the rock, a bit curious.

The War God System changed the authority so that I would obtain the most precious item in this storage facility.

—–which means this rock cube is the most precious item?

After a brief moment of thought, Gu Qing Shan put his hand onto the spinning rock cube.

In that instant.

The rock cube disappeared without a trace.

Gu Qing Shan checked himself.

Nothing.

He couldn’t help asking: “System, where did that rock cube just now go?”

[Ting]!

The War God System replied: [That thing is useless to you. That was an information recording rock from the Bygone Era. A large amount of knowledge of the Bygone Era is stored inside. With it, Doomsday Chronicles will be upgraded]

“Upgrade?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[Indeed, your Doomsday Chronicles will use the rock to absorb information and descriptions of items from the Bygone Era. From now on, whenever you touch items from the same era, you will quickly recognize its use and the relevant information] the System replied.

Following the System’s explanation, the icon for [Doomsday Chronicles] below the War God UI became blurry.

Apparently it was undergoing some sort of change.

A few moments later.

The shape of the icon changed completely, it now looked like a thick green book.

The letters for [Doomsday Chronicles] also disappeared.

New text appeared below the icon.

[Upgrading]

Gu Qing Shan stood still without moving.

He took a deep breath and asked: “In other words… you just took the entire thing and I didn’t gain any benefits, correct?”

Noticing the subtle change in Gu Qing Shan’s tone, the System responded: [No, I did leave a bit for you]

As it did, a small piece of rubble appeared in Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

From the looks of it, this was a small piece of scrap that fell off the rock cube.

Looking at this piece of rubble, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help asking: “What am I going to do with this?”

[You can use it to increase your card grade] the System replied.

Gu Qing Shan pulled up his card UI and looked at the card that depicted himself.

That’s right, I’m only a Grey card right now, so I should quickly evolve.

Cards are really powerful, an excellent means of support in battles.

He tried putting the piece of rubble into his card UI.

The piece of rubble slowly sank into the card UI and disappeared.

The UI started to tremble.

Within that trembling, the Grey card that depicted Gu Qing Shan shattered into many pieces, fell down, and disappeared.

Immediately after, a new card replaced it in the same spot.

This was a Lapis card.

Gu Qing Shan noticed that he was still depicted the same way on this card, wielding two swords in both hands.

But the card now appeared a lot less transparent, it also felt more realistic.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[You have become a Lapis-grade card]

[You may now draw your second Lapis card]

[From now on, you may use Lapis-grade cards in battle]

The lines of text then disappeared.

Three Lapis cards appeared at the center of the UI.

They all had their backs to him so Gu Qing Shan couldn’t see what was depicted on the front.

And so, Gu Qing Shan had no way to tell what kind of ability each of these three cards had.

Below the three cards, a notification appeared.

[Please choose one Lapis card to become your second battle card]

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the three cards.

In reality, regardless of which Lapis card it was, they all had their unique niche that would be useful for different situations.

——–so there was nothing for him to hesitate about, any card he drew would be usable.

Gu Qing Shan randomly tapped one of the Lapis cards.

Sensing Gu Qing Shan’s action, the card turned around.

A blinding crimson light was displayed on the front of the card, making it so that one couldn’t tell what the card depicted.

Gu Qing Shan sighed and felt very satisfied with his luck.

Indeed, this was a very unique weapon.

And the description of the War God UI proved his guess to be true.

[Rare Item: True Crimson Demon Spear]

[While equipped with this spear, you can’t wear any armor at the same time]

[This demon spear carries the Law-grade property: Absolute Sharpness]

[Note: This is the first weapon created by Divinities from the Age of Old that can hurt them]

[Unstoppable!]

When Gu Qing Shan took this card, the other two quickly faded into the void of space.

A second later.

A spear with boundless crimson glow appeared from the void of space and appeared in Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

As he stared at this spear with the [Absolute Sharpness] property, Gu Qing Shan suddenly realized something.

No wonder the Divinities created so many things that were so much more powerful than themselves.

They have been imitating the creations of the Bygone Era humanity.

——-considering how powerful the Bygone Era humanity was, it was naturally for imitations of the things they created to be much more powerful than the Divinities themselves.

The most direct example of which was this [True Crimson Demon Spear]

Gu Qing Shan randomly wielded the spear.

Shu shu shu shu!

The sound of the air being ripped could be heard clearly.

Gu Qing Shan muttered: “Unfortunately, it’s a spear, it would be so much better if this was a sword”

As soon as he mentioned that, a line of glowing text appeared on the green book icon that was still being upgraded on the War God UI:

[This item is only an imitation, but it contains a crucial factor. If you need a sword, you can derive that crucial factor within the card and use it as a material to forge a new sword]

Gu Qing Shan’s eyes lit up.

The [True Crimson Demon Spear] is a weapon that can harm even a God.

If I have a similarly sharp sword, many of my battles would be a lot easier.

But this will probably take a very long time to complete, let’s just take it slow.

Gu Qing Shan silently put this information to heart.

He let go and had the [True Crimson Demon Spear] turn back into a card before flying back into his card UI.

At this point, he had become a Lapis grade card that had 2 Lapis card in his deck, the passive ability [Bleed] card and the rare weapon [True Crimson Demon Spear]

The Divine King Scepter slowly floated up and disappeared into the void of space.

It had accomplished its mission.

Gu Qing Shan felt an immense force pushing against him, then found himself already standing outside of the vault a split second later.

As the 16 Divine Guards saw him outside again, they quickly knelt down on one knee to welcome him back.

After conducting the coronation ceremony and going into the inheritance vault, Gu Qing Shan had truly become the Divine King.

He looked down at the Divine Guards, a bit unsure on how to treat these creations of humanity.

Gu Qing Shan was quite sure he had already found out most of the truth.

The current Divine race were all sentient and had their own consciousness most likely because they had already passed their expiration date.

In order to not go extinct, they hoped to venture into the Gate of the World in the Desolate race’s hands.

———-to gain entry into that gate, the Divine race and Desolate monsters made a treaty:

The Divine race would help the Desolate race deceive humanity and turn them into the monsters’ food, at the same time helping the Desolate monsters destroy the [Orders] that humanity left behind.

If the Divine race could accomplish this, the Desolate race would have to hold onto their end of the bargain and help the Divine race enter that Gate.

This was the gist of the treaty between these races.

The only clueless ones were humanity, deceived by the Divinities, they were forced to fight against the Desolate monsters and eaten by them.

What a sorrowful fate!

Gu Qing Shan silently shook his head and slowly walked back to the audience hall.

He sat down on the Divine King’s throne, silently contemplating this.

The Golden Flame Divinity appeared before him.

“Have you found the human yet?” Gu Qing Shan asked in a low voice.

「 I haven’t, he suddenly disappeared without a single trace 」the Golden Flame Divinity dejectedly replied.

“I suppose the human realized his actions at the frontlines were too eye-catching so he already concealed himself. Most likely we wouldn’t be able to find any trace of him, let’s not openly hunt for him right now, after that human thinks we let our guards down, he’ll surely appear again” Gu Qing Shan said.

「 Hm, that makes sense. Perhaps we have been searching a bit too eagerly that he felt alarmed 」the Golden Flame Divinity slowly nodded.

All of a sudden, a commotion was heard from the entrance of the Divine Palace, drawing their attention.

“What’s happening? This is the Grand Divine Palace, who is causing a scene?”

Gu Qing Shan scowled and shouted.

A Divinity flew in from outside the Divine Palace and knelt down before Gu Qing Shan from afar: 「 Your majesty, our great Divine King, we have caught the human 」

「”You caught him?”」

Gu Qing Shan and the Golden Flame Divinity both uttered in surprise.

The Divinity continued to report: 「 Yes, she1 was hiding among humanity’s sects, traveling from place to place investigating something, when she was exposed, we managed to set up a trap that ensnared and captured her 」

Saying so, two Divinities brought a detained human female into the Grand Divine Palace.

The human female was completely exhausted from being attacked with wounds and blood all over her body, she was Luo Bing Li.
