Chapter 954: Envoy of The [Plague Chaos]

Translator: La0o9

As the rooster’s comb stood up, it started emanating an unknown sense of pressure.

What’s going on?

For some reason, the boy felt a chill run down its back.

The rooster looked at the boy and spoke with a hoodlum tone of voice.

“Haahh? You sure like to talk big, don’t cha? This brat probably hasn’t even gone through society, old Gu, why haven’t you taught him how to live like a person?”

Gu Qing Shan shrugged: “I’ve only just captured him. I still don’t know where he came from yet”

The rooster was unable to hold itself back: “Fine, then I won’t waste any more time, I want this much”

It raised its wings to form a heart.

“This is—– how much?” Gu Qing Shan hesitantly asked.

“You don’t even understand that?” the rooster asked in surprise.

“I don’t” Gu Qing Shan was a bit embarrassed.

“With how close we are, you can just give me however much you think he’s worth” the rooster generously declared.

Gu Qing Shan silently thought that this rooster seemed to follow a kind of urban law gang member style.

After thinking about it for a bit, the rooster doesn’t really ask for much Soul Points each time he uses it, and since this matter was so crucial, he generously put his hand on the chicken.

——and sent him 10,000 Soul Points.

Receiving this excessive amount of Soul Points, the chicken changed.

Its body began to give off a golden glow, its comb turned bright red.

“You’ve shown your sincerity, brother, I guarantee I’ll be able to get even information about this brat’s past life, no issues”

The rooster patted his chest and declared.

“I’ll trouble you” Gu Qing Shan replied.

He then waved his hand to prepare a complicated defensive formation——- although there weren’t any targets to actually be on a look-out for right now, it didn’t hurt to remain vigilant when collecting crucial information.

The colorful rooster had extended its long neck upwards, currently looking into the void of space.

“This brat is a Returnee”

The rooster spoke up first.

Returnee!

Hearing this term, Gu Qing Shan became focused.

This information alone was considerably valuable.

The rooster continued: “He’s too much of a coward so he’s been hiding away in the Inner Plane worlds, only after the Inner Plane was thoroughly destroyed did he use his final secret technique to give up everything and fled to the Outer Plane”

“But since he reincarnated in an emergency, he didn’t prepare enough and got his memories completely sealed away, most likely unable to awaken it again during this life”

“Knowing this, he reached out to the [Chaos] faction of the Inner Plane worlds and submitted himself to them as a price in order to gain the protection of [Chaos]”

“As this world was a relatively unremarkable place in the parallel world, [Chaos] aided him with reincarnating here and prepared to help him grow stronger, spreading [Chaos] from here until he reached the infinite worlds and finally destroys the entire Reality”

“He is currently in a state of half-awakening”

“He had already sent out 5 secondary Envoys of [Chaos], all of which were using everything they could to become stronger—– the stronger they become, the quicker this guy will awaken”

Gu Qing Shan asked right away: “Do they have a dependent relationship?”

The rooster shook its head: “Not at all, on the contrary, due to the struggle for power, they might turn on one another and become enemies instead——– however, because this Returnee created 5 Envoys at once, as long as those 5 continue to grow stronger, [Chaos] will help him awaken faster”

Gu Qing Shan pondered: “That sounds like a kind of reward”

“That’s exactly what it is” the rooster answered seriously.

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Then, if I kill him and the Envoys, can I end [Chaos]?”

“An Envoy of [Chaos] has the ability to spread the seed of [Chaos]. It was only because these people are in their weakest state that you were able to catch them—— I’ll be honest, as soon as [Chaos] had descended, it could no longer be stopped”

“What would happen if I kill him?” Gu Qing Shan asked further.

The rooster answered: “You will be turned into an Envoy of [Chaos], forced to spread the seed of [Chaos] against your own will——- that’s why you must be careful with this, [Chaos] is something that even I can’t get a grasp on”

After telling him that, the colorful rooster returned to being a statue, no longer able to say anything.

The ground then began to tremble.

Gu Qing Shan silently sensed it.

From a faraway unknown, he was able to perceive the anger of the remnant will of this world.

Quite obviously, the remnant will of the world had a perfect understanding of everything that went on here.

It was able to hear the colorful rooster’s words.

If [Chaos] couldn’t be stopped, what would even be the point of retaliating?

Gu Qing Shan was able to tell just how much the remnant will of the world was in despair.

“Don’t worry, there’s still a chance even under this situation” Gu Qing Shan consoled it.

The trembling ground stopped.

Everything returned to normal.

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and spoke: “Shannu, watch him carefully, if he shows any sudden movement, kill him”

“Yes, gongzi”

Shannu’s voice emerged from the sword.

The boy had been standing there listening to them, so he showed a fearless smirk and spoke: “You already know the truth and you dare to treat me this way?”

Gu Qing Shan just looked at him without saying anything.

How troublesome.

I wouldn’t gain anything from killing this guy and instead get turned into an Envoy of [Chaos].

There are too many variables to come up with a sufficient plan.

After carefully thinking for a bit, Gu Qing Shan suddenly recalled something.

The colorful rooster was dependent on [War God Intel], whose main ability was to collect information from the void.

But the War God UI itself also had the ability to answer questions—— it might not be able to obtain information from the void, but it knew a lot of secret knowledge.

“War God UI” he silently summoned it in his mind.

[Ting]!

A clear chime.

[I’m here]

The War God UI replied.

“If I kill an Envoy of [Chaos], would I always turn into an Envoy of [Chaos]?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[Thank you for 10 Soul Points, the answer is affirmative]

“Then, what if I killed myself after that?” Gu Qing Shan asked again.

The War God UI paused for a moment, then replied: [This is truly an extraordinary thought, but I must tell you, even if you kill yourself, Chaos itself would be unaffected, it would only once again search for another Envoy. On the other hand, thank you for 10 Soul Points]

“Is there really no way to end [Chaos]?”

[Chaos is forever and unending, thank you for 10 Soul Points]

Gu Qing Shan went silent for a short while longer.

Seeing how he was, the boy chuckled triumphantly and spoke: “You fool, it’s all useless, now release me, I will—-”

Bam!

The autumn water blue steel sword suddenly turned to its side and slammed on his head.

The boy was knocked unconscious.

A cold female voice came from the sword: “Gongzi isn’t a fool”

Gu Qing Shan glanced over that, pondered for a while longer and asked the War God UI: “You and I have already dealt with the [Demon King Order] once”

[Indeed] the War God UI replied.

“At the time, you were able to dismantle the [Demon King Order] from me” Gu Qing Shan continued.

[Indeed]

“Then, what about [Chaos]?”

[To dismantle it will require 100,000 Soul Points, just like when I dismantled Origin from you on the snowy peak of the Old Gods——– I have answered three questions, you have paid 30 Soul Points] the War God UI replied.

Hearing this, Gu Qing Shan calmed down.

But why is it like this?

Gu Qing Shan had a sudden thought, so he asked: “Is [Chaos] also a kind of [Order]?”

[It is not, Chaos is the enemy of Order, they are locked in eternal mutual combat with no chance of reconciliation]

“…I see, but what exactly are they?”

[Respectively, they are Chaos and Order]

“You know what I mean, can’t you answer me a bit more directly?”

[No, you don’t understand why I avoided answering this question]

“Because I’m not yet qualified to obtain the actual answer?”

[Correct, I’ve answered 4 questions and taken 40 Soul Points]

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

I’m not yet qualified to learn the root cause of everything.

But now, at least I’m not in a total deadlock.

“Keep a close eye on him for now, if there are any issues, contact me” he spoke to the Six Paths Great Mountain sword.

“Understood, gongzi. You don’t need to worry about anything and do what you have to”

Shannu’s voice sounded from the sword.

Gu Qing Shan’s body blurred as he returned to the temporary camp.

“Have you found any clues of the missing people?” he asked.

The Pope handed him a report and replied: “Yes, my Lord. We’ve mobilized every Professionist in the world, including the Wizards, in this search. Their general locations have been found, but without your orders, we haven’t dared to try and recklessly capture them”

“Well done” Gu Qing Shan praised.

He received the report, memorized their locations, and vanished from the temporary camp once again.

——–it would be best to deal with these guys while they haven’t had the chance to grow yet.

After getting rid of them, I’ll worry about how to deal with the Returnee boy later.

He went across thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.

Gu Qing Shan soon arrived where the first secondary Envoy of [Chaos] was at.

He silently floated in the sky, watching over him.

This person seemed to be limping, staggering as he slowly moved along, but wherever he passed, everything was withering away.

The ground behind him had already turned into a lifeless black zone of death.

Gu Qing Shan was expressionless.

The Earth sword appeared behind him, flashed, and vanished.

Unable to even react, the man was sliced in half from the top of his head.

A line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI.

[You’ve killed a monster that contains a large number of Soul Points]

[Although you are vastly stronger than it is, its ability to destroy the infinite worlds vastly overpowers your own]

[Considering this situation, you haven’t simply killed someone weaker than yourself]

[During this combat, the War God UI have absorbed the appropriate amount of Soul Points for you]

[You’ve obtained 10,000 Soul Points]

Gu Qing Shan looked at these notifications in surprise.

Right, I brought quite a bit of Soul Points back from the Age of Old.

But I can’t keep spending without earning, so every bit of Soul Points I get is valuable.

At least, I’ve replenished the number of Soul Points I gave the rooster.

Hm…

This isn’t bad…

While he was thinking, 2 more lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI.

[Attention, you are about to carry the Plague Chaos]

[One minute later, you will become a primary-level Envoy of the Plague Chaos]
