Arya\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they finished eating the grilled wild boar meat, the three sat on the grass outside to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry was happily drinking some booze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it was Gu Qing Shan who provided it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did Gu Qing Shan bring the Pixie Crystal Flower, cook them a wonderfully luxurious dinner, he even made some grilled ribs so good that Chef Cheng wanted to clear his debt for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, he even had cold booze ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Gu Qing Shan was a woman, Barry wouldn’t even hesitate to try and court him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take a look”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty pointed at some faint figures quickly traversing through the air and told Gu Qing Shan to look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are those?” Gu Qing Shan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Maybe they are travelers who happened to pass by, maybe they are bro’s mortal enemies waiting for him outside”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They can’t get in?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They can’t”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I came in just fine”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Spire Keeper Association is on our side, so we trust them” Kitty said: “If I don’t want someone to come in, no matter who it is, they won’t make it into our world”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan asked: “Then what if someone fooled the Spire Keeper Association to infiltrate?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty shook her hand: “I hold this world’s beacon authority, so I can kick someone out as easily as I let them in”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan now understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was silently thinking about the matter of the Bramble Birds and finally made a decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, I actually have a favor to ask of the two of you” Gu Qing Shan very sincerely spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry and Kitty both looked over to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You have a favor to ask of me?” Barry asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes” Gu Qing Shan answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry put the bottle of booze down and pounded his chest with one hand: “Say it, helping others is my justice, so as long as it isn’t something bad, I’ll help you out once”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This young man isn’t an evil person so helping him once isn’t that big of a deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty, on the other hand, scowled a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bro doesn’t consider the consequences when doing things, once he agrees to help someone, he’ll always try his best to do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his body still hasn’t fully healed yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If by chance, Gu Qing Shan’s request is too tough and Barry has to risk his life for it, it’ll be hard to tell the results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterall, many of Barry’s enemies completely went into hiding to wait for him to show up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, the brother-sister duo approached Gu Qing Shan’s request with very different attitudes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan told them: “I want to answer the call of the Bramble Birds under this world’s name”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Under this world’s name?” Barry didn’t quite understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty’s scowl loosened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah so that’s what it was. Bro, he belongs to a Scattered world, so he’s not qualified to answer the call of the Bramble Birds” she explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry now realized: “Oh I thought you wanted to take revenge or fight or something, if it’s something that simple, of course there’s no problem”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bro, there’s a small problem” Kitty said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s the problem?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If he answers the call of the Bramble Birds as a member of the Justice Iron Fist Club, once he returns, the debtors will take him away and make him do labor work for them to pay for our debt”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll protect him” Barry waved his clenched fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But we really do owe them a lot of money. We won’t be in the right if we beat them” Kitty whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, that’s right, they’re our debtors, beating them up won’t be a fight for justice” Barry scratched his head, troubled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan spoke: “There’s no need to think too hard about it, I’ve got a solution”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What solution?” Kitty asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Doesn’t the Bramble Birds give out treasures to those who help it? Are its treasures precious?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry and Kitty exchanged glances and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Bramble Birds are a mystical creature of the Mystic Zones. Do you know what a Mystic Zone is?” Barry picked up the booze again as he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty patiently explained: “The 900 million World Layers are divided into the Fallen Zones, Super Dimensional Zones, Strife Zones and Mystic Zones”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Mystic Zones are the areas closest to the innermost area of the Outer Plane, any item from those areas are obscenely valuable outside”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And since the natural habitat of the Bramble Birds is within those areas, they very frequently come across and collect all sorts of rare treasures among rare treasures”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Perfect, then if I managed to return alive, I’ll use the treasure received from the Bramble Bird to pay for your debt”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan added: “Since you’re letting me be a member of the club, I should do something for the club as well, isn’t that right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry was shocked at first, but started laughing: “Ahahaha, that is perfect! That really is the perfect solution!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The club gets a savior who’s willing to help them absolve the debt as a new member, not to mention he’s someone they got along with so well, it really couldn’t be more perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty also patted him on the shoulder: “If you can really do it, you’ll naturally get a place in our club”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From what they saw before, Xiao Die really had matured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that this person was entrusted with the Pixie Crystal Flower by her, and that he really did deliver it across trillions of world speaks volume.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention he’s such a good cook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it, he said this was his first time travelling so far away from home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…alright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s make him a club member now and not let anyone else get a chance to steal him away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty quickly decided, took out a couple of steel shovels out of nowhere and threw them to Barry and Gu Qing Shan respectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re going to dig something up” she stood up and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much longer do we have to dig?” Gu Qing Shan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not sure, but should be soon” Barry dug a bit deeper without breaking a single sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan looked to Kitty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’ve been digging for 2 hours already.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty spoke embarrassed: “At the time, we owed so much money and bro’s wounds still hadn’t gotten any better, so for the sake of safety, we buried this world’s beacon”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So just hurry up and dig it back up, if we don’t dig it up quickly, you might not make it to the Bramble Birds in time”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan sighed, said nothing else and continued to dig.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beacon can connect to the core Laws of a Super Dimensional world, so it can be considered the ‘deed’ of a Super Dimensional world, its central control unit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once a person was registered in the beacon of a certain Super Dimensional world, they could connect to that particular Super Dimensional world at any time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as they paid a certain price, they could return to that Super Dimensional world at a moment’s notice from any other of the other trillion worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason why Gu Qing Shan was trying so hard was to receive permission to warp-travel this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time slowly passed by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Gu Qing Shan and Barry dug for a while more hours, they finally reached where the beacon was hidden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a pair of iron boxing gloves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty had to wash it several times for the boxing gloves to regain its metallic shine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ever since I got wounded, I haven’t touched these boxing gloves”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry sighed emotionally as he looked at the boxing gloves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bro, you’re already getting better now”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty held his hand and encouraged him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore the boxing gloves and started connecting to this Super Dimensional world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few moments later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He told Gu Qing Shan: “Give me a strand of your hair”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan pulled out one strand of hair and handed it to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry placed the strand of hair into the palm of the glove.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very quickly, the hair disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The club has recorded your unique signature” Kitty happily declared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that the Justice Iron Fist Club finally had a new member after such a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he’s still very weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he carries a heavy debt on his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he’s a good person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To repay the debt of the club, he’ll leave in search of treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry’s wound is also recovering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things are finally getting better, so the future would be full of things to look forward to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking that, Kitty’s lips slowly curled into a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Barry opened his hand, grabbing something invisible from the void of space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kitty, now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave that thing to Kitty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty took the invisible thing and chanted a mysterious incantation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something began to manifest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then handed that thing to Gu Qing Shan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he took a look, Gu Qing Shan found that it was a thin string.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hair flickered briefly before disappearing from his hand and went away without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We used your hair to create a Void String, creating a connection to this world’s beacon and grant you permission to enter this world” Barry explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty solemnly told him: “I’ve infused that strand of hair with my spatial Law powers, the power inside is enough for you to return here once”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How should I do that?” Gu Qing Shan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you chant ‘Justice Iron Fist Club’, you’ll be able to sense the void string’s existence”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan tried and found that was indeed the case.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s next?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pull the void string, about half an hour later, it’ll lead you back here”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Half an hour?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well, not exactly, if the distance is too great it might take a bit longer”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitty continued: “The next time you return here with that, come find me and I’ll infuse spatial powers into it once again for you”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I got it, thank you” Gu Qing Shan said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sincerely exhaled out of relief inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From this moment onwards, he had been officially recognized by a Super Dimensional world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barry smiled: “From now on, you’re a member of our Super Dimensional world, I’ll sign up for you now”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He blew a whistle at the void of space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few moments later, a huge bird flew in from the space vortex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bird circled around Barry once before landing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing Shan noticed that the bird was wearing a crest on his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crest depicted a flying bird.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tsk tsk tsk, Barry, it seems you’ve gotten better now, great for you, but you still owe me quite a bit” the big bird looked at Barry and commented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Me getting better means I can pay you back sooner or later, doesn’t I?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s true, you finally don’t have to be a fraud anymore, how great”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop with the chit-chat, help me contact the Spire Keeper Association, I need a ship to take someone to the Bramble Bird’s place”\u003C\u002Fp>",1861,"2026-06-09T03:05:01.244Z",1,"novelbin.me","dbfcce3f22085ebbb24f05e7a7e181fd1f7034c0d78ca51c7d939fac0b8c492e","worlds-apocalypse-online-chapter-500","worlds-apocalypse-online-chapter-498",1850,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fworlds-apocalypse-online-cover.jpg"]
