Chapter 1579: Ring: Law Fraud

Gu Qing Shan came out of the inn and walked onto the busy main street.

He looked up.

There was no sky here, everyone on the island could clearly observe the Space Vortex outside, separated by nothing but a barrier.

However, there was an artificial sun and moon.

——it seems this island wasn’t an actual world.

Everyone walking on the main street appeared to be highly experienced and on high alert to fight at a moment’s notice.

After observing clearly for a while, Gu Qing Shan faintly understood the island’s situation.

This island was essentially a relay station.

About a few thousand kilometers away from this island was the entrance to the Doomsday Necropolis.

And anyone wanting to enter the Doomsday Necropolis must pass through this island.

For that reason, everyone would conduct their transactions, rest, resupply, and organize their teams here; whenever they were ready, they would head into the Doomsday Necropolis to try their luck.

——-the Doomsday Necropolis was a strange place. Every world that had ever been destroyed by the Apocalypse, after drifting endlessly through the void of space, would eventually end up here.

There were plenty of Apocalypses that hadn’t fully disappeared as well as partially destroyed worlds.

The living beings of these worlds would have already been eradicated without fail.

But the inheritances and treasures left by these numerous civilizations still remain to incite risk-takers.

And so, this island that was the closest to the Doomsday Necropolis was called the Adventure Island.

Later on, when they discovered that the name ‘Adventure Island’ had been registered over 8000 times over among the infinite worlds, everyone decided to change the island’s name to Dream Island.

—–fulfilling one’s dream through adventures and absolute risks.

This represented the true thoughts of countless people here.

Gu Qing Shan traveled while checking both sides of the main street, then suddenly his eyes lit up.

A certain small alleyway on the left was filled with Technological-type stores.

“Finally found it”

He muttered to himself and entered the alleyway.

Numerous stores stretched all the way until the end.

After walking for a short time, Gu Qing Shan stopped in front of a certain airship store.

——-there were several eye-catching airships on display here, all of which were detailed with purely scientific design.

As an expert in this matter, Gu Qing Shan only needed to take a glance in order to recognize some of the design intentions and functions.

It was truly mesmerizing.

Unfortunately, I have other things to attend to——

If there weren’t any Apocalypses, I would be able to run a restaurant while researching a super airship, and whenever I’m free, I’d take everyone on vacation to various worlds, such a life would have been perfect.

Gu Qing Shan looked at them for a while longer before he unwillingly proceeded forward.

After a short while, he stopped at another shop.

—–‘Kotler’s Energy Station’

This was a charging station capable of refilling energy for various Technological-type devices, from the most basic oil and gasoline to advanced quantum entangling engines, or even blackhole gravity wells, any kind of energy could be found here.

——Laura also had a lot of Technological artifacts, but she preferred to collect treasures above anything else, if there was ever a need for energy, she would just buy it.

Gu Qing Shan took out the Light Chaser ring for the self-check-out station to scan.

A human female voice sounded from the room: “Nice to meet you, the type of energy your ring requires is: Type 1 Supermicro Compressed Energy Modules, how would you like to pay?”

Gu Qing Shan stopped briefly and suddenly thought of something.

“Which Technological-type world did you come from?” he asked.

“Our store belongs to the most advanced Technological-type world of the 900 million World Layers, Supernova Sparkle City” the female voice replied with a smile.

The 900 million World Layers?

Seems like I ran into someone from the same hometown!

“That’s great, I’m from the Ironfist Club, can you put me on a tab?” Gu Qing Shan delightfully asked .

The female voice stopped immediately.

A few seconds later, an electronic voice replaced the female voice and emotionlessly replied: [Good evening, esteemed guest, our store has closed down for the day, please leave immediately]

Gu Qing Shan’s delighted expression froze.

He turned the ring in his hand to release several Origin Gems at once.

Clak clak clak——

The gems fell on the table with a chiming sound.

“Isn’t it so much more convenient to just put it on a tab, why insist on cash?” Gu Qing Shan complained.

The dry electronic voice instantly disappeared.

The female voice sounded again with a charming tone: “Esteemed guest, our store has received directions from our superiors to continue business for an additional three hours, please wait a moment as we recharge your ring”

Gu Qing Shan: “…You guys sure are practical”

The female voice giggled: “All for the sake of survival”

…

A few moments later.

The Light Chaser ring was fully recharged.

Gu Qing Shan took the ring back to the inn.

He closed the door, once again arranged an array of isolation formations before once again taking out the ring.

——how do I activate this?

Gu Qing Shan stroked the ring and tried whispering: “Su Xue Er?”

A layer of light appeared on the ring.

Su Xue Er’s voice sounded from the ring:

“Qing Shan, all of this ring’s functions have been designed to support the activation of a certain kind of power, so I can only leave you a short message”

“The future I arrived from was one where everything had already been destroyed with only Impartial Goddess and myself prolonging our remaining breaths”

“This ring was already the last of our power”

“It has a unique function:”

“Fraudulent Exclusivity”

“This ability was designed to take advantage of the surrounding Laws of Reality to disguise your fluctuations, allowing you and your past selves to exist within the same region of Space”

“This would greatly expand your range of action and make it so that you won’t need to be wary of being erased by the three Great Laws of Reality”

“Attention, the only issue is that you can’t let your past selves witness you, otherwise, the disguise would be undone”

“You can now do what you want to do, regardless if you’re planning to head into the 900 million World Layers or the Wraith realm, you wouldn’t have to worry about being erased by the three Great Laws of Reality”

“Qing Shan, you must change the future, otherwise, everything will be destroyed”

“You are our last hope”

At this point, her voice slowly faded away.

Gu Qing Shan’s eyes gave off a sense of determination as he clenched his fist tightly:

“Xue Er, don’t worry, I will definitely not let your efforts go to waste, I will surely—-‘

Suddenly, another voice emerged from the ring and cut off Gu Qing Shan’s speech.

[Gu Qing Shan, I am Impartial Goddess]

[Other than what Su Xue Er said earlier, there was another small issue that requires your attention]

[I, Impartial Goddess, ever since the day I was born, have had the role of ‘Impartial Goddess’, but I lack a true name]

[From the perspective of living beings, an individual without a name is incomplete]

[Name me]

[——I will await your answer in the future]

The voice faded away again.

Gu Qing Shan was stunned, not knowing what to do for a while.

Spending all of my efforts to fight the Apocalypse, ensuring that Su Xue Er and everyone are safe, that part is not an issue.

But…

Naming someone is far outside of my expertise!

But then again——

Impartial Goddess was my original as well as the best ally up till now, so could I really ignore it while she doesn’t have a name?

I can’t!

Gu Qing Shan stood still and fell into thought.

The sun rose as the moon come down.

One full day had gone by.

“Not good! I can’t use all of my time to come up with a name!” Gu Qing Shan resolutely decided.

He was feeling a severe sense of threat.

——if this continues, wouldn’t the Apocalypse arrive again very soon?

I should delay the naming issue for now.

Hm, just for now.

He put the ring back on his index finger.

Invisible fluctuations exuded from the ring to envelope him, then quickly vanished as if they hadn’t existed in the first place.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[You’ve obtained the disguise: Life Fraud]

[You can now enter any location that your past selves had been to]

[You will not be erased by the three Great Laws of Reality]

Gu Qing Shan nodded

This way, I’d be able to return to the Wraith realm and Tomb of Myriad Beasts.

This is great.

Both resurrecting the Delimitation Divine Sword and searching for the secret of the Samsara will probably require this ability.

Now, I should head out to look for the frozen corpse.

And earn myself some Soul Points.

With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan opened a map and carefully examined it.

Cross-referencing calculation with his senses, Gu Qing Shan quickly confirmed a certain fact:

The first part of the frozen corpse’s body was in fact inside the Doomsday Necropolis.

In that case, I need to think of a way to retrieve the frozen corpse’s body part.

Gu Qing Shan pondered briefly before leaving the inn again.

He traveled across the main street and made his way to the mercenary guild.

“Welcome, are you here to register as a mercenary?” a staff member greeted him.

“No, I’m here to issue a mission” Gu Qing Shan replied.

A place like the Doomsday Necropolis required a lot of people working together, at least they would be able to watch out for one another and take shifts resting.

Certain mundane tasks could also be left to others, like digging or preparing perimeter defenses as well as scouting.

A large party would be too inflexible and draw too much attention.

How could I possibly draw attention to something as searching for the frozen corpse’s body part?

——so the solution is to recruit only experts.

In that case, I would only need about 5-6 people.

Gu Qing Shan only had to think briefly before deciding on this course of action.

“Issue a mission?” the staff member was surprised and asked: “Which organization are you from?”

“I am——”

Gu Qing Shan paused briefly.

‘Don’t Know Yet’ is still relatively unknown, so it won’t gain enough attention.

Then——

“I’m a member of the super dimensional world Justice Ironfist Club from the 900 million World Layers” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“Ah, please wait as I take a look”

The staff member took out a notebook and quickly flipped through it: “Hm, Barry, Kitty, Gu Qing Shan, Ye Fei Li—- which one among them are you?”

“Gu Qing Shan”

“Very well, please wait a moment——– yes, the validation technique has confirmed your identity, you can now issue your mission”

The staff member told him with a complicated expression.

“What is the highest difficulty mission type you have here?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“That would naturally be S-rank” the staff member replied.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I want to issue an S-rank mission, requiring four—— no, five powerful and experienced Combatants to accompany me and explore a certain region of the Doomsday Necropolis”

The staff member observed him for a bit and replied: “Very well, I will post your mission shortly, but you will need to put in a deposit for an S-rank mission’s reward and payment”

“How much?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The staff member told him a certain number.

“That’s a bit expensive” Gu Qing Shan frowned and said.

The staff member replied: “As this is the first time your organization has issued a mission; we can deduct half a percent to commemorate our first transaction”

“Alright, then it’s decided” Gu Qing Shan agreed.

The staff member also sighed in relief and instinctively glanced at the notebook in his hand.

There was a mark next to the Justice Ironfist Club’s name that represented the absolute most terrible credit rating.

Since they were now willing to pay upfront, this issue had been resolved.
