Chapter 857 - Let’s See What These Guys Are Doing?!

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

A group of people was still watching in the shop.

“The raid is successful!” Everyone received this message on the game interface.

They stared at the screen intently. “What will drop in this raid?!”

“Let’s see what items it dropped!”

At this moment, a huge translucent virtual control panel appeared on their game interface, showing four shiny golden cards. Nalan Mingxue immediately clicked on one, and the card flipped to the back and showed the words: [Abyss Invitation*140]

The four cards vanished and were replaced by 20 golden cards.

She clicked on them one by one.

“Anton’s soul fragment? What’s this?”

“This is a material used to make new weapons,” Nalan Mingxue opened the store on one side and said.

At this moment, in the zone of Ultimate West Realm in the Yuanyang City Shop, people like Gabriel, Sia, and Luo Piaoling were also looking at their screens intently.

Such a monster must drop at least a godly equipment, right?

The golden cards opened slowly.

Suddenly, Gabriel found a new item in his backpack.

He erupted into a loud exclamation, “Savior’s Glory – Zanbato?!”

On the sword was engraved with a line of small words.

[Let all the energy in the world strengthen you.

Let your enemies feed you with their life force.

You will acquire the true power of an Apostle.

And when the power has done its work, it will shake heaven and earth.

-Eulogy to Anton]

“Skill attack +35%?”

“After activation, it can release the magic power of the Seventh Apostle: Fire-Eater Anton?!”

In disbelief, he rubbed his eyes.

Then, he opened his mouth wide.

“Hahahaha–! Ahahahahaha–!”

“Ugh–!”

“What’s happening?! What’s happening?!”

They saw a figure fall from the chair stiffly.

At the entrance of the internet café, the godly swords hanging on the bamboo stick yelled repeatedly, “No! Someone suddenly died!”

Bedlam broke loose in the internet café. “Sir! Someone got a Savior’s Glory – Zanbato and died of SCD!”

[TL Note: SCD – sudden cardiac death.]

The nearby Ultimate West Realm people’s faces twitched. “...”

“How is he?” Sia asked Lou Piaoling who was checking on Gabriel.

“Blood rushed into his head... perhaps it’s a result of his excessive cultivation recently...?” Luo Piaoling’s face darkened while he yelled, “It’s not SCD! Not SCD! It’s nonsense!”

They heaved out a sigh of relief.

If the story went out that a warrior of the Ultimate West Realm died of SCD while playing games, how shameful it would be?!

Immediately, he kicked Gabriel’s butt. “Hurry up and get up!”

...

On the endless godly mountains beyond the distant void.

This was the residence of the top existences in the world, the holiest place.

It was a view that the ignorant followers could never imagine even in their dreams.

Noble, ancient, elegant... every complimentary word could be used to describe this place.

“Hurry! Hurry up with your work!” Extremely chilly ice and snow and bone-chilling winds swept around the tall mountain peaks. In the distance at the top of the mountain was a grand god statue that wasn’t finished yet.

Many figures were busy moving huge boulders bigger than millstones toward the godly palace that was still in construction in the chilly winds.

Deep footprints were left in the thick snow.

“Hiss-! So cold!”

“I wonder when this will end...” In the ice and snow, a figure panted heavily, exhaling thick white vapor, and said in a low voice.

He was an unshaved middle-aged man with messy hair. Wearing a shabby thick cotton coat, his physique wasn’t strong, looking totally different from those great existences or the grand godly palace in the distance.

“This is... completely different!” The man blew white vapor at his hands that were covered in frost bites and said, “This is completely different from the things that they promised! Why must we do this here...?

“You know what I’m talking about.”

“Stop talking. Oh, please forgive his ignorance,” an old man prayed piously.

“A tiny gift from them is better than anything that we can imagine in the lower region!” a younger man scolded, “Not to mention the over-spilling elemental energy in this place. Although the situation is somewhat different from our expectations, it’s good enough.”

“These are solid benefits. Work harder...” With a huge boulder several times bigger than his body in his arms, the man looked at the godly palace in the distance and said wishfully, “One day, we’ll also have a godly palace of our own.”

...

“Hehe...” A series of lazy chuckles came from the distant godly palace. Two gazes were watching the activities in this place. “These people are so naive.”

The speaker was a young man who appeared to be 18 or 19 years old.

“Watch your language.” The man standing next to him looked as dazzling and noble as a golden sun; they were the noblest existences in this world.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Everything about them were flawless.

With his hands clasped behind his back, he walked toward the depths of the godly palace with a cold expression. “Think about their history. Instead of becoming the sacrifice for those evil gods...”

“Now, they have the opportunity to serve a grand existence; it’s their honor.”

After turning around, he walked toward another direction along the wide corridor.

The heavenly light came in from the window in the ceiling at the right angle, and the courtyard of the gods kept all kinds of rare beasts. Fire phoenixes spread out their plumes while three gold lions frolicked on the meadow.

Two figures talked casually while walking.

“Don’t you think they are alike?”

“Huh?”

“Eating the meat that the godly officials toss at them each day, they can’t see the world outside and thus won’t have any new ideas sprouting in their heads.”

“Isn’t it good?”

“But, the people in the... lower region are not as obedient as them.”

“They will be.”

“You mean the people in the... Innumerable-Immortal Sea?”

“Not only them. It’s said that those beings’ presences seem to appear in the lower region. You should know what it means.”

“By that time, I wonder how these weak bugs will look when they beg for our protection. I think they will really look ugly...”

“How about the Innumerable-Immortal Sea...?”

“Isn’t it more interesting to see the armies of gods and demons both descend to the mortal world?” the figure snickered, “They are living too peacefully. Without some excruciating pain, those monkeys wouldn’t remember their lessons.”

“If they knew that they were in such a dangerous situation, I’m afraid they would be too horrified to sleep at night,” the young man chuckled and said, “Let’s see what they are doing now.”

He drew a line with his fingertip, and an extremely strange dark space appeared before him. Then, visuals appeared in it.

“Let’s look at the place near that shop.”

The scene zoomed in.

-On the street outside the Yuanyang City Shop-

A huge banner was spread in the mid-air.

A group of Ultimate West Realm people stood there, and they had dragged Jessica and her companions of the West Continent to join their party.

Gabriel stood in the middle of them.

Around them, firecrackers and fireworks boomed.

“Congratulations to Young Master Gabriel for acquiring Savior’s Glory – Zanbato!”

“Hahahahaha-!”

The two men in the godly palace exchanged a look...
