World's Apocalypse Online Chapter 219

After the giant hands appeared, they did nothing and just floated there.

Seeing that, Hurt declared again: “Sinner, receive divine retribution”

But the hands stayed absolutely still without any movement.

Although Hurt has went through his fair share of battles, he couldn't help but be stunned for a bit.

---------what's going on, did the God's Chosen Skill lose its power?

A few moments later.

Hurt's expression changed.

He seems to have realized something.

He created a white flame on his hand and threw it.

The flame flew towards the rock.

The rock was instantly vaporized, revealing the content inside to Hurt.

A full set of green Confederate military garb was folded neatly inside the rock.

Right where the military rank coat of arms was, a small milky white light was floating.

The milky white light was covered by something, only able to let out a faint signal periodically.

Hurt was surprised looking at the white light.

That's indeed Ivan's stigma.
…so I've been tricked.

An angry roar echoed across the entire area.

“I WANT TO CHOP YOU TO PIECES! MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PIECES!”

Gu Qing Shan didn't hear Hurt's roars of anger.

He was still doing his best to run away.

[Go quicker, I can see the Seven Holy Apostles are all on the move] Liao Xing said.

He added: [But there's also some good news, the Pope is still staying at the Holy Sanctuary, she's not commanding the Paladins herself]

“It's fine as long as the Pope herself doesn't come” Gu Qing Shan was able to relax a bit, asking: “I'm already moving as fast as I could, is the warp device prepared?”

[Due to the amount of enemies blocking the way, according to your current speed, the warp device is being recharged right now, it's been set to activate in half an hour]
[After that half hour, you can use it to warp at any time]
[Right after you warp, it'll self-destruct!]

“Alright, I'll time it carefully” Gu Qing Shan said.

[Hahhh] Liao Xing sighed, [truthfully, the Paladins are reacting a bit too quickly, not to mention their formations and arrangements are also very opportune, I'm afraid you won't necessarily be able to escape]

“If I can't escape I'll just cut open a path” Gu Qing Shan coldly said.

Ye Fei Li's voice suddenly came: [I'm already prepared, if worse comes to worst, I'll go rescue you]

“Definitely do not come, you can't deal with any of the Holy Apostles I've met”

The other side became silent.

After running a bit more, Gu Qing Shan suddenly realized something was off ---------Impartial Goddess hasn't spoken for so long.

He asked: “Impartial Goddess, where are you?”

[Please wait a bit sir, I'm currently in the middle of something] Impartial Goddess' voice came.

“What are you doing?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

But Impartial Goddess didn't answer.

This is the first time she didn't answer Gu Qing Shan's question.

But very quickly, Gu Qing Shan's Holo-Brain lit up, massive amounts of data flowed across the screen like a waterfall.

[All firewalls have been broken through, now commencing remote surveillance of the Paladin control network]

Impartial Goddess was heard once again, dignified as ever.

[Preparations complete, Impartial Goddess has entered war-command mode]
[Enemy intelligence has been received, begin drafting countermeasures]
[With the goal of reaching the warp device safely, a total of 749 measures has been drafted]
[Begin filter of measures with the highest success rate, No. 12, No. 319, No. 628]
[Simulation number 3,268,314 completed. Measure No. 319 has been determined to be one with the highest success rate]
[Measure No. 319 selected, begin drafting real-time map]
[Commence!]

A real-time map appeared on the Holo-Brain screen.

Impartial Goddess' voice came again.

[Sir, the blue dot represent yourself, the green path represents the safest route, red represent the Paladin forces, black represent the Seven Holy Apostles]
[Let us begin; I will be your personal guide]
[Please make a detour towards South-east to avoid a Holy Apostle and 400 Paladins]

“Got it”

Gu Qing Shan stopped, then followed the real-time map shown on the Holo-Brain to keep moving forward.

[Please continue forward, after 6 minutes, move Westward for 1km to avoid the second Holy Apostle] Impartial Goddess continued.

Gu Qing Shan followed the directions.

[There's an obstacle 2km away, 700 people waiting for an ambush on the Southern cliffside, please avoid the left road, continue on the second road on the right]
…
Finally, Gu Qing Shan made it to the capital, quickly headed towards the location of the warp device.

Not sure if this is Liao Xing's fetish or hobby, the warp device is hidden inside the Holy Empire's Grand Circus.

At this moment, the circus was in the middle of a show.

Today happened to be the one day of the month when the circus was doing a beast-taming performance.

Animals walked out one after the other, performing unbelievably difficult feats, wowing the audience.

The clowns -------actual clowns, were moving about, keeping up the merry atmosphere in between performances.

Gu Qing Shan made his way in from the back, dodging through the hurried people and entered deeper backstage.

“Where is it?” Gu Qing Shan quickly asked.

[30 years ago, that place used to be the cosmetic room, the place where the beautiful ladies do their make-up, but now I'm not sure] Liao Xing said hesitantly.

“Placing the warp device here, aren't you worried that the circus would close down?” Gu Qing Shan was still quickly moving forward, but couldn't help and retort.

[This is the biggest circus in the world, if it closes down then even I can't help it] Liao Xing answered.

“Which room was it exactly?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[7th room, after you walk in, check the locked closet on the left -----------push it out, the warp device is hidden inside the wall!]

Liao Xing's tone became calm: [Something seems to be happening outside, it seems the Paladins have arrived ---------but they won't be able to stop you]

[Right] Zhang Ying Hao's voice also came, [when you warp back, they wouldn't even have gotten inside yet]

[Come back quickly, this mission can finally be over] following that was Anna's voice.

She very rarely uses such a soft tone to speak, so Gu Qing Shan felt an unknown sense of warmth as he heard her.

“The 7th” Gu Qing Shan checked the nameplate on each room as he counted.

Wardrobe, Animal food, Prop room, …

“Liao Xing” Gu Qing Shan gritted his teeth, “the 7th room is the female changing room!”

[What!] Liao Xing's voice seemed joyful, [you mean, they haven't changed it at all after all these years?]

[Bam!]

A dull sound of something being hit came from the Holo-Brain.

Then a lot of noises.

Finally, was Anna's voice: [Knock first before you enter, ok?]

[Just go in, turn on the device and warp, quickly] Zhang Ying Hao's voice also came.

Suddenly Gu Qing Shan remembered something and released his inner sight towards the stage area.

There weren't any empty seats left, most of them were parents taking their children to the circus, but he could see that many people have already started to leave.

The Paladins stood at each of the entrances to urge people to evacuate.

“Impartial Goddess” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[I'm here, please speak quickly sir] Impartial Goddess answered.

“How strong is the explosion from Liao Xing's warp device's self-destructing?”

[Very strong, but you don't need to worry sir, the Paladins have come and started to evacuate the people already]
[After you finish warping, the guests will have all been evacuated from the effective blast range]

Gu Qing Shan was able to calm down.

He reached out and knocked on the door.

“Please come in”

A female voice came from inside.

Gu Qing Shan opened the door and walked in.

Suddenly, Zhang Ying Hao's hurried screams came from the Holo-Brain in his breast pocket.

[Disappeared! The Pope just suddenly disappeared!]

“I know" Gu Qing Shan very calmly answered, "she's sitting right in front of me”
