Chapter 181: L9527
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In Chaoge City’s center was an ordinary stone platform.
Compared to the surrounding luxurious buildings that reached the clouds, this stone platform that was only 99 steps high seemed so inconspicuous.
It had traces of heavy wind and rain, and many spots had even been damaged over the years. It was probably built with the most ordinary stone materials without any good qualities.
To be able to preserve it until now was considered lucky.
However, Gu Changqing wasn’t interested in the stone platform’s origins.
Flying under the eye-shaped rune, he was just about to activate his divine sense when gray fog suddenly surged around the platform. Before Gu Changqing could react, he was teleported to a a small space.
“This
Hewas stunned. This was the first time where he couldn’t react in time and was moved to another space against his will.
Subconsciously, he directly activated his strange runes. The Human Skull’s image appeared, ready to defend at any time. As expected, a cold aura came from behind him.
Swoosh!
A shadow stabbed Human Skull’s gray sword with a sharp blade. The attack missed, and it immediately disappeared into the void.
“Enemies really meet on a narrow road!”
It was a familiar shadow and the same smell. It was the same one he had encountered in the ancient tower before this. However, this time, the shadow seemed to be much stronger.
On second thought, Gu Changqing figured out the mystery.
According to Huang Di’s description, the shadow he encountered had the same appearance and attack habits as the one Gu Changqing encountered, but their strengths were different.
It was very likely that the shadows in the four copper bells and towers were all separated from one main body.
Now, they had all merged into one, so they grew even stronger.
Gu Changqing had already figured out the shadow’s attack habits during his time in the ancient tower. This time, he definitely wouldn’t let it escape so easily.
Perhaps he would gain some unexpected benefits from this creature.
A slight spatial fluctuation appeared in the empty space. Above Gu Changqing’s head, the Grim Reaper’s scythe slashed fiercely at the location of the fluctuations.
The shadow had just appeared when the scythe slashed down. Caught off guard, it hurriedly raised its sword to block, but the scythe easily cut it off.
With a miserable cry, the shadow directly dissipated on the spot. However, the space that should have disappeared was still intact.
This gave Gu Changqing a headache. Along the way here, he had been trying to break through Universe City’s laws of space.
But up until now, he still didn’t have control of it. So now, how should he get out?
Just as he fell into deep thought, the surrounding space fluctuated again. The Grim Reaper above Gu Changqing’s head directly swung its scythe once more.
Clang!
The sound of weapons clashing could be heard.
Gu Changqing raised his eyelids and looked at the figure standing in the void. “You’ve finally revealed your true form.”
The figure floated in the air, holding a sword in his hand to block the attack scythe. There was an unnatural smile on his face.
“Hello, heir!”
Gu Changqing narrowed his eyes. He remembered what the shadow said in the ancient tower. Now that he saw his true body, this was actually the first thing he said.
The creature said seriously, “I know you have a lot of doubts. I’m sorry, but I don’t know much either.”
“You… What are you? Why can’t I sense any signs of life from you?”
Gu Changqing had already sensed the strangeness from the moment he saw the shadow’s original body. He had the same appearance and figure as a human, and he even used the same language.
Despite that, he had no signs of life.
The figure had a dramatic expression on his face. No matter how one looked at it, he didn’t seem natural at all.
“I’m just a spirit body that was created.”
The creature tried to make himself look sad, but he couldn’t express it. Gu Changqing asked, “What’s the purpose of you being created?”
The other party replied faintly, “The heirs are really cruel. How many billions of years had it been? A hundred? 500? It has been so long that I have almost forgotten what my mission is.”
Gu Changqing reminded him, “Get to the point!”
“The point is, as the heir, you have to take control of Chaoge and become its master.”
The figure made an angry expression, as if it was dissatisfied with Gu Changqing interrupting his talk..
Gu Changqing’s question was simple, “What am I supposed to do?”
The creature replied seriously, “Cough cough cough… As long as you enter the city’s exclusive training space and complete its training, you will be able to obtain the city’s management rights.”
“Then let’s begin!”
The moment Gu Changqing knew where he was and what he needed to do, everything else was pointless.
After hesitating for a moment, the creature asked carefully, “Well, don’t you want to know more about Universe City and Chaoge?” “Then why aren’t you telling me?”
Gu Changqing’s reply rendered the figure speechless.
It seemed as if he was organizing his words, or his brain had stopped working. After a moment, he spoke again.
“I am the administrator of Chaoge City, one of Universe City’s 12 main cities.
My serial number is L9527.”
“The 12 main cities are Chaoge, Luoshui, Zhulu, Shangyang, Shaoshang, Beichen, Ziwei, Gengchen, Yunmeng, Yundu, Qingzhou, and Chang’an.
Universe City is the human race’s home. And it is also their battleship.”
L9527 quickly explained what he knew, ‘Each of the 12 cities has its own unique training space. When a Divine Runemaster completes a training space’s challenge, he or she will receive a corresponding reward. However, activating and distributing the rewards can only happen after you obtain the corresponding city’s management rights.”
“Then let’s begin my training. I want to be quick.”
Gu Changqing couldn’t wait any longer. According to L9527’s description, only by taking control of the main city would he have these rights.
As he said that, the space in front of him fluctuated, and a wormhole as tall as a person opened beside him. Gu Changqing turned around and strode into the training area.
At the same time, Huang Di and the others were exploring Chaoge Cit. All of a sudden, they were sucked into a space by the wormhole that opened beside them.
L9527’s expression changed drastically as he said, “What’s going on? Why are all the Divine Runemasters in this city getting sucked into the training area?
He was puzzled.
At that moment, the sky above Chaoge City was suddenly covered with demonic clouds, followed by a storm, lightning, and thunder. A few minutes later, the peaceful city fell into darkness.
L9527 gritted his teeth and shouted out a name, “The dark divine rune!”
“Is this really a trial space?”
Looking at the violent spatial turbulence in the area, he fell into deep thought..
