Worlds’ Apocalypse Online
chapter-1186

Bam!

Ye Fei Li slammed the glass of liquor on the table, his expression was especially painful.

“What’s the matter?” Zhang Ying Hao asked.

“The alcohol was too strong; you know how I can’t really drink hard liquor” Ye Fei Li replied.

Gu Qing Shan clapped his hands to call the bartender behind the bar.

“A glass of sparkling wine, also, do you have strawberry shortcake here?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“There’s sparkling wine, strawberry—- what’s that?” the bartender asked.

Gu Qing Shan formed a hand seal to manifest an illusion, drawing the shape of a strawberry.

“Ah, you mean red fruit, please wait a moment”

The bartender took out a seed from behind the counter and chanted an incantation.

The seed in his hand quickly grew, formed into a tree, sprouted flowers then manifested several juicy strawberries.

The bartender picked the strawberry, handed it to a bar attendant, and told him: “Take this to the dessert master, our guests want a shortcake”

The bar attendant quickly left.

A few moments later, the cake was brought out.

“Thanks” Gu Qing Shan nodded to the bartender.

Ye Fei Li put a gold coin onto the bar counter.

“Always happy to serve” the bartender smiled and received the coin.

Zhang Ying Hao put the black cat down from his shoulder, telling it: “Precious, here’s the strawberry shortcake you wanted, eat and find us the way out of this world”

Meow!

The black cat happily meowed.

He then proceeded to enjoy the cake bit by bit.

During that time, Ye Fei Li took a gulp of his sparkling wine and unfurrowed his eyebrows.

“I should have ordered this from the start. I don’t know how you guys can drink alcohol that strong” he smacked his lips and commented.

“You drank too quickly, that’s not really necessary. Drinking is meant to be a time for one to rest and relax, there’s no need to pour everything down your throat” Gu Qing Shan slowly took a sip.

“Exactly, and this liquor is very good, you need to slowly savor it” Zhang Ying Hao also raised his cup and clinked his glass with Gu Qing Shan.

While the three of them were drinking, they also enjoyed the sight of the beautiful dancing girls.

In this entire bar, other than those who had drunk themselves to sleep, the living beings of every race had all taken human form.

Apparently, the human form being standard for communication was still a thing here, and not only in the 900 million World Layers.

However, quite a few of the ladies here had done everything they could to display the unique characteristics of their own race upon the basic human form in order to draw the eyes of more people.

The lead dancer snake woman appeared completely human, only by observing her flexible hips and belly as well as her vertical iris would one notice that she wasn’t truly one.

As for the Yuki-onna, although she looked completely human, she had a snowy complexion, beautifully nurtured facial features, as well as a faint icy mist around her body. As she danced, the crystalized ice shards glittered in the darkness as they reflected the colorful lights.

「 Nice dancing! 」

Someone below stage cheered, then tossed a pale green fruit towards the snake woman.

Seeing the fruit, the snake woman skillfully caught it in her hand and batted her eyelids at the person.

The three people continued to drink while waiting for the black cat to finish his cake.

A nice fragrance drifted from afar.

A girl with a panicked expression approached them and hurriedly said: “I beg you, since we’re all humans, please save me”

The three of them looked at her.

Only to see that she appeared around 16-17 years old, her skin complexion a perfect white, her facial features flawless except for the look of shock she was carrying.

She was human.

Meeting the girl’s begging expression, Ye Fei Li turned to Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan simply continued drinking.

Ye Fei Li had no choice but to shake Zhang Ying Hao.

Zhang Ying Hao shrugged and asked the young girl: “What happened? Why are you here?”

The young girl explained: “My world was destroyed, then I drifted into this place without knowing why, but couldn’t find a way to leave”

“We don’t know how to leave either” Zhang Ying Hao sighed.

“But you’re still free, I was captured by——”

Before the girl finished her words, a few bulky men approached them.

“There!”

A bald-headed man with a thick beard declared.

The young girl was easily caught by him and dragged into the group.

While that happened, she turned to the three of them, constantly calling for help.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t answer.

Zhang Ying Hao only gave them a curt glance before looking back down at his liquor.

Ye Fei Li couldn’t contain himself any longer and approached the group.

“STOP!” he shouted.

The men immediately stopped and looked back at him.

“What do you want?” the bulky leader man questioned in a threatening voice.

“That girl isn’t coming with you” Ye Fei Li declared.

The men exchanged glances, dropped the girl, and walked towards Ye Fei Li.

“Nosy brat, did you tell your parents before picking a fight with us?”

“Kill him!”

“Go!”

They abruptly attacked.

Seeing that, the young girl ignored everything and ran.

She intended to take advantage of this and flee.

A crimson glow appeared on Ye Fei Li, preparing to defend himself.

But then.

A second later.

Chopped-up corpses laid all over the floor.

The men became corpses right before their eyes.

A cold gleam flashed through the air, slowly returning behind Gu Qing Shan, and faded into the void of space.

The bar was silent.

Everyone here was supposed to be at the same level of strength.

But no one saw how he did that.

No one knew how those people died.

Gu Qing Shan slowly took another sip as he put an intricate Bramble Bird earring on the bar.

“Huh? Isn’t this my storage tool?” Ye Fei Li was shocked.

Zhang Ying Hao patted the revolver at his hip and smirked: “That girlie stole your storage tool, I wanted to blow her head off in a single shot, but since Gu Qing Shan stole it back, I stopped”

Ye Fei Li turned to Gu Qing Shan.

“Ah, it’s nothing much, when it comes to pickpocketing, she’s still far away from even being a beginner” Gu Qing Shan raised his glass to him.

Ye Fei Li returned to his seat and took a gulp from his cup.

“Ying Hao, did you notice earlier as well?” he asked.

Zhang Ying Hao casually replied: “I manage an entire guild of hitmen you know. I’ve already seen every kind of people there are to see, and had naturally seen this type of activity over a thousand times”

Hearing that, Ye Fei Li felt a bit dejected.

“Don’t worry about it” Zhang Ying Hao consoled him, “Back then, I also thought I was already an expert, only to be deceived too many times to count when I first entered the 900 million World Layers”

“Really?” Ye Fei Li looked up.

“Of course, you think everyone can be like you? Immediately getting appointed as a Duke right when you walked out the door, that’s usually what people work their entire lives to get” Zhang Ying Hao replied.

A few bar attendants quickly arrived to clean up all the blood and body pieces.

They were apparently quite experienced, as it only took an instant for them to return the floor to how it was earlier.

Suddenly, that young girl from earlier returned.

Several men in black suits followed her with grim expressions on their faces.

“You dare to kill our people, prepare to——-” one of the men in black started to speak.

All of their heads suddenly exploded.

Several ‘flowers’ of blood splattered in the air, drifting as a faint mist that filled the area.

One bullet, one life.

All of them were dead.

Zhang Ying Hao displayed a flourish with his revolvers before putting them back into their holsters.

“My apologies, when we’re all at the same level, no one can talk and still remain alive in front of me” he shrugged.

Gu Qing Shan then turned to the young girl and nodded: “You’re now free to go, no one else is restricting your freedom now”

The young girl froze.

She suddenly fell on her knees and started crying out loud.

Everyone was complacent.

Ye Fei Li looked at Gu Qing Shan, then at Zhang Ying Hao.

Both of them showed nothing on their faces.

Ye Fei Li still couldn’t help himself and lifted the girl up on her feet.

“Don’t be scared, it’s all over now” he gently said.

“Uuuu, hic”

The young girl laid her head onto his chest, almost as if she wanted to pour all of her hardship and torments up to this point out through her tears.

She suddenly looked up like she wanted to kiss Ye Fei Li.

Ye Fei Li hurriedly turned away, telling her: “No need——”

The girl kissed him on his neck.

Ye Fei Li immediately felt numb all over his body, unable to move.

The young girl abruptly turned him around and used him as a shield, then pressed a gleaming cold knife at his throat.

One last try, success!

From what I saw before, these three are the richest people in the entire bar!

She loudly laughed:

“Ahaha, you two over there, hand over everything of value on you, or I’m going to kill him!”

She turned to the bar.

Zhang Ying Hao just sat there with a shot of liquor in his hand, looking curtly at her with a faint regretful expression on his face.

The other——-

Where’s the other one?

The girl suddenly felt disoriented.

Thud!

Her head rolled on the ground, spilling a bunch more fresh blood to dye the floor red.

Gu Qing Shan was standing behind her, sheathing his sword.

“A terrible pickpocket, and a very stiff actor”

He curtly commented.
