Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

Chapter 457: Chapter 205: After the Game Shuts Down, What Becomes of the NPCs?

Lu Wenwu ultimately couldn’t capture an upper realm Immortal God to work for him.

After all, even if both sides joined forces to face the enemy, organizing negotiations would still take some time.

Moreover, with the current state of the Three Realms, the resources required for the upper realm to send someone down are indeed immense.

Gathering enough resources is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

The last time they sent down the True Monarch of Destiny, it already drained the reserves of several high-ranking members of the Immortal Realm. The Celestial Emperor even used his own inner treasury to barely gather enough resources to reverse the Celestial Gate.

Not to mention, the Divine Realm still doesn’t fully believe the Celestial Emperor’s words, and both sides remain in a stalemate.

After all, a Godslayer who resurrected from death, unable to become a god yet living for a full 120,000 years, and capable of instantly killing the Ancient Sun God sounds utterly ridiculous.

Even stories in the mortal world’s storybooks don’t dare to boast like this.

It’s normal for the Divine Realm not to believe it.

So, the situation is currently at an impasse.

Even though the Celestial Emperor has threatened to draw his sword and wage war against the Divine Realm, the Divine King remains unmoved.

Helpless, the Celestial Emperor ordered many Immortals to scour the Immortal Realm for materials in order to open the Celestial Gate independently and prepare for a campaign in the lower realm against the Godslayer.

However, Lu Wenwu never pinned his hopes on these unreliable fellows.

For one, it seems these Immortal Gods are inexperienced in battle; if it were those ferocious men from the Mythical Era, who did nothing but killing, they might still be reliable.

Another reason is because...

If this matter were so simple that relying on others could solve it, would it still be called a High Tier quest?

For regular players, even with S-Class players participating, at most, they could stand against the Godslayer’s world-destroying catastrophe, cooperating with Immortal Gods and the revived Ancient Immortal Gods to hold out for a year.

The longer they last, the higher the score upon completion, perhaps?

Maybe.

But Lu Wenwu doesn’t need such a timid process.

He’s focused on one thing.

Find that Godslayer Des and blow her head off!

So, having one True Monarch of Destiny who can predict and calculate is enough.

During these days, Lu Wenwu and the True Monarch of Destiny no longer pretended, continually roaming the vast sea, searching for the Godslayer’s whereabouts.

Although they haven’t pinpointed it exactly, they’ve identified a sea area.

As soon as the Godslayer emerges, Lu Wenwu can immediately sense and eliminate her on the spot.

It’s not because this person named Lu suddenly developed a conscience in the Moral Abyss and started sympathizing with innocent bystanders.

The main thing is...

As a demonic cultivator, it would indeed favor her if she were to fight in a crowded place.

Isn’t it like having walking health packs everywhere on the streets?

Thus remaining on the sea ensured Lu Wenwu could secure an advantage, a sudden flash of inspiration, employing a small clever tactic.

With his True Dragon Battle Body, fighting on the sea in a sense gives him the home-ground advantage.

Should the Ancient God of Space suddenly revive and intervene, he still has room to maneuver and counter, avoiding being too passive.

Who says our Brother Wu only acts blindly... Well, actually, all this isn’t Lu Wenwu’s original intention.

He’s just a brute; how could he have planned so many contingencies?

The former part was his real intent.

And the latter part.... was actually an interpretation after the True Monarch of Destiny gathered some information... Oh no, decoded!

There is always a great scholar to argue for me.jpg

...

More than a month later, under the sea.

The large cocoon woven from countless shadows had already cracked.

After devouring the Sun God and ascending further, Godslayer Des felt an incredible surge of power, shocking her to her core.

She... felt the power of the Ancient Gods!

That was the authority of the true gods of this world!

Staring at the translucent veil in front of her and the array of data listed on it, Godslayer Des’s gaze shifted from shock to daze in an instant.

She had never felt the Law of Space so clear in her eyes.

It’s a very special feeling.

As if there was a door slightly ajar in front of her.

Just a little push, and the great door would open by itself.

A slight step through, and she would enter the realm belonging to Immortal Gods, ascend to the upper realm.

But she refused.

In her heart, the God of Space is supreme.

As a servant of a god, how could she dare stand on the same level as her eternal master in her heart?

So, Des declined Ascension to Divinity.

Even though she had long possessed this ability, and might even be the first native NPC of this world with the ability to ascend, she still did so.

"Is this... the world in my master’s eyes?"

Godslayer Des curiously took out an "artifact" left by the God of Space from her storage space, and the translucent light screen abruptly changed, displaying a series of explanations.

"I am not yet a god, but I already possess part of the true god’s power..."

Suddenly, as if recalling something, Des dashed out of the side hall where she devoured the Sun God, rushing toward the vast central hall.

She moved quickly with the posture of a mortal, not mobilizing any of her own power.

This place was once part of the God of Space’s Divine Hall, where she had lived for a full 120,000 years.
