Chapter 980: Mutual Saviour Boss (2)

Translator: La0o9

The black effigy hovered in the air.

This effigy looked very similar to the Life Exchange Contract that Gu Qing Shan was wearing on his neck, but there was also a difference. The God of Death depicted on his effigy was sitting upright, holding his long scythe with one hand while pointing forward with the other.

it looked almost like an order for his army to prepare for war.

Seeing this effigy, Black Crow shouted in shock: Who are you!? How did you get the secret token of the God of Death!?

Boss replied: Nevermind who I am, hurry up and go, if you move one step too late, everything would be for nothing!

After countless years of waiting, this token has finally showed up once again how great it is! Black Crow was shedding tears.

Boss continued: The path of inheritance of the God of Death is extraordinarily arduous, you must make sure to afford protection to the one who inherited the God of Deaths power

He then pointed to Lin: Bring her with you, her strength will be enough to deal with a lot of threats

Lin looked at Boss and was about to refuse.

But then a voice sounded in her mind: Do not try to bargain, simply aid her. The Abyss will see how well you accomplish all of this

Hearing this, Lin felt goosebumps all over her body.

She lowered her gaze, no longer having the courage to face the other party.

So it truly was you, The Abyssal King, the Exiled Apostle, the Peerless Fallen One, Greatest Above the Star Crown, Great Lord of Infinite Origin

Lin whispered in her heart.

That is all in the past, there is no need to mention them- go, help the heir of the God of Death awaken her divine sanctuary, we now require power to stand up against this dangerous situation more than ever before Boss voice sounded again in her mind.

After a short pause, he continued: If you accomplish this well, the Abyss shall once again take you under its shelter, or perhaps possibly help you advance one step beyond

Understood Lin replied.

Black Crow swiftly took the effigy, flew into the room, grabbed Anna and Lin with its talons before flying away through the window.

Far in the sky, Annas voice resounded: WAIT A MINUTE-

Her voice slowly went further and further until it couldnt be heard again.

After he did this, Boss was about to attempt something else, only to hear the Demon Dragon speak:

Master, my powers have run out, I will fall into slumber right away

Boss was shocked and regretfully said: Oh no, Ive used up what remained of my power just now, if you cant even use your powers as well, it will become very troublesome after this

The Demon Dragon didnt answer him.

He slowly closed his eyes.

He was dead.

As an Abyssal monster, it will most likely require a long time in order to reawaken.

Boss sighed and pulled his hand away from the black dragons head.

This way, the matter of the coin will be resolved, and the follower of Death will also enter his divine sanctuary. Following this, we need to think of a way to maintain the final [Order] and make sure that it isnt eliminated by the Envoy of [Chaos]

He muttered to himself.

The room was completely silent.

So much happened in the span of mere seconds, and those events contained so much information that everyone couldnt react in time.

Until now.

Everyone stared closely at Boss.

Laura turned her eyes around and muttered: Disregarding everything else, I finally understand why this guy became Gu Qing Shans mutual saviour

Indeed, he truly did manage to save Gu Qing Shan from the greatest peril he had ever faced up to now Ilya nodded in agreement.

But

More importantly

Even if Boss was only using the Demon Dragons power, he knew a bit too much.

Gu Qing Shan asked: Boss, who exactly are you?

Ah, about that, in truth when you rescued me, I was actually fighting against the Soul Shrieker Boss raised the book in his hand.

The book stood up by itself in the air and flipped through it automatically.

Gu Qing Shan saw how the battle between the Soul Shrieker and Boss went.

Boss continued: Ive been constantly trying to stop the spread of [Chaos], but due to my injuries, Ive been unable to exert my true power and was defeated by it, and then I was saved by you

Gu Qing Shan asked: Which means, you were trying to arrange measures in order to fight against the Soul Shrieker?

Of course, since I saw that none of you were concerned about this, I had to take matters into my own hands first

Boss gave a puzzled look as he looked at everyone around and casually asked: What is it? Did I do something wrong by seizing the time to make preparations before a battle?

Everyone was startled and shook their heads at this question.

For Boss, he was truly just trying to make arrangements to fight the Soul Shrieker.

But he also did something else at the same time.

Gu Qing Shan patted his shoulder and praised: You made the best possible decision

Laura also added: Indeed, youve saved a certain someone

Boss stretched his back and yawned: Hm, then its good, I can only do so much

His body started to slump down, his eyes already closed, but he was still speaking:

The rest will depend on you

I do not want to wake up

Just to see

Everything is already gone

He collapsed.

Gu Qing Shan swiftly caught him and carefully placed him on a sofa.

The rest of them came forward.

Is he dead? Ye Fei Li asked.

No, he seems to have fallen into a dormant state Zhang Ying Hao replied.

According to what he said, his injuries were originally quite severe. Exerting his powers together with the Demon Dragon just now mustve exhausted the rest of his strength Laura made an educated guess.

Gu Qing Shan told them: Let him rest, now its our turn to act

He looked towards the blood-red UI in front of his vision, only to see it that was still urging him to run away.

Laura, protect your kingdom. Ying Hao, Fei Li, were going to leave right now Gu Qing Shan told them.

Got it Zhang Ying Hao replied.

Im ready to leave at any time Ye Fei Li also said.

No! Why are you leaving already? Laura questioned him with a displeased tone.

Gu Qing Shan crouched down in front of her and softly said: The Soul Shrieker only wants to destroy [Order], as long as we leave, it would chase after us and will not do anything to your kingdom

You cant, Gu Qing Shan, I want to fight alongside you Laura clenched her tiny fists tightly.

Gu Qing Shan sighed with a worried look in his eyes: Silly girl, the Soul Shrieker is a soul-devouring monster, no one can win against it in the entire 900 million World Layers. Right now, we have no choice but to stall it while we think of a solution, so I cant let you get entangled in this

Youre not entangling anyone, Im willingly joining in your battle! Laura insisted.

No, youre still too young, you need more time to grow and mature. Before you have thoroughly matured, I cant let you face a monster of the Soul Shriekers degree Gu Qing Shan replied.

Laura took a step back and pursed her lips tightly.

Seeing the resolute look in Gu Qing Shans eyes, she understood that she wouldnt be able to convince him.

Men, prepare their ship!

Jerk, I dont want to see you again!

Laura turned around and ran away.

Gu Qing Shan kept his crouched posture and didnt move for now.

Her Majesty seemed angry Zhang Ying Hao shrugged.

Gu Qing Shan kept his head down and spoke: Its useless even if she acts angry, theres no way to prevent the Soul Shriekers soul absorption ability

Then what about him? Ye Fei Li asked.

He was pointing at the sleeping Boss.

Bring him Gu Qing Shan replied.

This man who calls himself Boss seems to know a lot of secrets.

He was fully committed to making preparations to fight the Soul Shrieker.

He also said that he was willing to join our group.

After he wakes up, he should be quite a decent fighting force.

The three of them didnt have to wait for long.

The Bramble Bird ship was quickly arranged.

Gu Qing Shans group was guided to board the ship.

Hey, why is there such a big difference, there isnt even a single person here to send us off Ye Fei Li said.

Get used to it, the fact that they gave us a ship in the first place is already a godsend Zhang Ying Hao replied.

He then put Boss down on the deck of the ship.

The deck was covered in a thick layer of white hide. They didnt know which creature it came from, but when Zhang Ying Hao tried to slice it with his dagger, all that he was able to leave was a white mark.

Ye Fei Li then manifested his bloody aura into a sharp claw and tried scratching the railings.

The railing was made from an extremely sturdy metal alloy that he couldnt even leave a mark.

While standing on the ship, an invisible warm flow enveloped their bodies, as if it was constantly replenishing the power of those who rode it.

-the ship seemed to be very high-quality.

It is even bigger and more intricate than the Bramble Bird ship that arrived to pick me up

Ye Fei Lis gaze passed through the ship and spoke like he was very experienced.

Zhang Ying Hao also nodded: After all my travels in the Strife Zones, Ive never seen, let alone ride such a luxurious ship before

This is [The Empress], Lauras personal airship Gu Qing Shan sighed emotionally.

He had seen this ship before.

The Bramble Bird Kingdom was the wealthiest country within the 900 million World Layers.

And this ship was the best airship in all of the Bramble Bird Kingdom.

Although Laura was angry, she still provided them with the best possible ride.

Take care of Boss, Im going below deck to pilot the ship Gu Qing Shan said.

No problem, but where are we heading now? Zhang Ying Hao asked.

Gu Qing Shan pondered.

Recalling what happened just now, he slowly gathered some hidden information.

When the [Demon King Order] fused back together, the Earth Creators voice appeared and said that he hoped the things he prepared on the star chart would be able to help Gu Qing Shan.

the Earth Creator had the ability to foresee future possibilities.

Since he was able to hide the [Demon King Order] away, he would naturally be able to hide other preparations as well.

He mustve left something on the path marked on the star chart.

But Gu Qing Shan never made it through the entire star chart in the end, his journey got cut off as he was heading to Riddle world.

I need to take a look at the World Layer chart, then compare it with my own navigation chart. Only then would I be able to determine where we need to go lets just get out of here first so that the Soul Shrieker wont catch up Gu Qing Shan replied.

As he spoke, the ship began to move.

Huh?

The three of them looked up and exchanged confused glances.

Was this ship automatic?

All of a sudden.

With a sha, the airship turned into a blurred image that extended far into the sky.

Aaaaa, why is this ship moving so fast!?

I dont know, but it looks very impressive

Where are we going!?

Their voices remained in the sky.

Following that.

Ship after ship started to take off and closely followed them.

The Bramble Bird royal fleet had been dispatched.

Ilya stood at the head of the flagship and spoke into her communicator:

[The Empress], you can speed up further, we can still catch up

A few moments later.

Lauras voice emerged from the other side of the communicator:

[Transmission received, at my command, all members of our fleet, full speed ahead!]
