Did I just say something?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Gu Qing Shan answered him, another ferocious roar resounded from within the tunnel: 「 Grey-brown Dragon, no need to flee any further, we’re specifically targeting a dragon! 」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Grey-brown Dragon: 「 ... 」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Grey-brown Dragon angrily shouted: 「 I’ve heard that you were a jinx, but not that you were a jinx to this degree, no wonder everyone who had escorted you up to now is dead! 」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his body to toss Gu Qing Shan and Crow down, then shouted: 「 I give up on this mission and willingly accept any punishments, please let me leave using return mode! 」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flash of light appeared from the void of space and enveloped the Grey-brown Dragon’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, it vanished without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan froze in mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crow stood next to him and laughed: “Stupid dragon, this was something that had been predestined to happen to you, how would that be related to me? I merely know a technique to foresee fortune and misfortune”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After laughing, he turned to Gu Qing Shan: “—-Right, where were we earlier?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan glanced at him, then took a deep breath: “No need to say anything else, I think I understand your situation”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crow’s expression then became startled again and said: “Alright, we probably need to run now, since this place has practically been surrounded...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan’s heart jumped almost to his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——-he hadn’t felt so much panic even when he fought against Reneedol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan’s mind moved like lightning and immediately shouted: “Crow! No matter how they surround us, we’d still be able to escape, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crow’s blankly turned to him, blinked, then blankly replied: “You’re right, they only wanted to catch a dragon, we’d definitely be able to flee and safely arrive at the Wraith realm”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, his body shook a bit before he regained his senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? Did I activate my ability again just now?” he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan slightly relaxed and answered: “You did, but it’s fine for now. I just want to know why a dragon who had pledged itself to the Apocalypse would suddenly run so resolutely from another monster?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crow answered with a serious expression: “It’s very simple, that blood had the ability to devour and destroy, which originated from a giant eyeball inside the Eternal Abyss”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The eyeball, having gained sentience, wanted to replace all Apocalypses to become the Apocalypse King”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Currently, it’s heading towards the Wraith realm”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan asked: “Why is it heading to the Wraith realm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who knows, perhaps something in the Wraith realm was attracting it?” Crow replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss suddenly spoke up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gu Qing Shan, we need to hurry up and arrive at the Wraith realm before the giant eyeball”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm? Why?” Gu Qing Shan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss answered seriously: “I suspect that it was Reneedol who was summoning the giant eyeball—– she intends on becoming that eyeball’s summoner”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan went silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s true, Reneedol had the ability to summon Apocalypses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she could form a summoner covenant with that eyeball, who else would be able to stop her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We won’t be able to deal with that eyeball—– no one would be able to” Gu Qing Shan replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss told him with a solemn tone: “We don’t need to deal with it, but we must ruin the meeting between that eyeball and Reneedol”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For what reason?” Gu Qing Shan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because Reneedol has no idea that her ability to summon Apocalypses originated from the Age of Immemorial, an ability that came from the Apocalypse Seeker that I had dissolved”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan thought briefly and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Apocalypse Seeker had always been searching for the frozen corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to it, the corpse was called the [Eradicator of all things and all living beings], the Unspeakable Hushed Secret Apocalypse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why does that matter?” Gu Qing Shan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss replied: “If we leave the Apocalypse to form a covenant with the giant eyeball, the other Apocalypses would immediately sense the existence of the giant eyeball”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Reality Gate would open once again, countless Apocalypses would pour in to search for the giant eyeball, and then the [Eradicator of all things and all living beings]”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan followed up: “Which is currently your corpse?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right. When that happens, everything within the Reality Gate would be done for” Boss replied.\u003C\u002Fp>",1913,"2026-06-09T03:06:09.502Z",1,"novelbin.me","d170d3a17b52eef2daff65788c484a8e6cd564103b4dbdd8e8ce0d1bb510a0e2","worlds-apocalypse-online-chapter-1542","worlds-apocalypse-online-chapter-1540",1850,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fworlds-apocalypse-online-cover.jpg"]
