Federal capital.
Noble district.
A heavily guarded villa.
"Tongtong, is there any news today?" A calm male voice sounded.
"Heavenly matters, President." A girl's voice responded.
"The ocean is dangerous - besides this, is there anything else worth paying attention to?" the man said.
"Yes, someone from the Changning Steel Armor Research Department died." Tongtong said.
"...What kind of news is this?" the man said speechlessly.
He was wearing a black windbreaker, with fingerless black leather gloves on his hands, his eyes were bright, and he had just lit a cigar.
"Yes, this is not news at all, but it is on the news." Tongtong said.
The man took a puff of his cigar and said, "I see... who died?"
Suddenly, a voice came from behind the two of them.
"it's me."
The man turned around and saw a young man wearing a hoodie standing in front of the window. "Who are you, Your Excellency?"
The man asked with narrowed eyes.
The young man said nothing, but had a nostalgic smile on his face.
suddenly.
There were seven or eight more people in black clothes in the whole room in an instant.
These people were filled with a hint of murderous intent and seemed to be ready to take action at any time.
The air is almost solid.
The next moment.
Everyone's communicators rang together.
Before they could get through, electronic voices sounded from the communicator:
"Federal citizen Xiao Hui, killer, lives in Room 9001, Unit 1, Building 10, Building 10, Nanwan Community, Changning, Room 9001, 9th Floor, Single."
"Federal citizen Chai Haoshan, the killer, lives in Room 1, Floor 1, Apartment 330, Fifth Avenue, Fifth Avenue, East District, Capital City. There is also..."
"Federal citizen Cheng Hui..."
"Federal citizen Zhao Pei..."
"..."
Everyone changed their colors.
As a killer, his true identity is the most important thing, and the organization has always been the most diligent in concealing his identity.
——As a result, everyone's identity was automatically played out by the communicator.
What kind of person can do this?
"I see...which palace master do you represent?" the man asked in a deep voice.
He waved his hand, and the killers immediately retreated.
Gu Qingshan didn't take it seriously. He sat down on the large sofa and said with a smile: "Congratulations on finally realizing your wish."
"Wish?" the man asked doubtfully.
"Yes, become the president of the killer guild and specialize in dealing with killers."
"……I do not quite understand you……"
"Let me meet you, I am Gu Qingshan."
"Gu... Qingshan, very good, a good name."
"President, he is the guy who was hit by a car in the news." Tongtong whispered.
There were only three of them left in the room again.
"Gu Qingshan, do you know who I am?" the man asked tentatively.
Gu Qingshan smiled and said: "You are Zhang Yinghao, the president of the Hunters Association."
"What about you? Who are you?" Zhang Yinghao asked.
"I might be a spoiler." Gu Qingshan said.
"What's causing trouble?"
"The established destiny of this world."
Gu Qingshan said slowly.
He recalled the first time he met Zhang Yinghao and continued: "Zhang Yinghao, I have seen your past deeds, and I agree with your ideas and actions."
"Now I extend an invitation to you to become my partner, and if you agree, I will take you through something absolutely different."
"It seems that there is nothing else I can do to help you except killing people." Gu Qingshan refused directly.
Gu Qingshan smiled slightly and said: "You should know that it is good to follow me. Compared with the two wimps from the Nie family and the Bai family, I am still different."
"I would like to hear the details." Zhang Yinghao said.
"How should I put it? I personally divide nobles into two types." Gu Qingshan said.
"Two kinds?" Zhang Yinghao said.
"Well, the first type of people find that they are born with supreme superiority, so they magnify their existence infinitely, spend money like water, bully others with power, and do not seek advancement, ruining the reputation of the nobility and turning it into a cancer for the entire country." Gu Qingshan said.
"Interesting, what about the second one?" Zhang Yinghao said.
"The second type is someone like you, or in other words, someone like your second uncle." Gu Qingshan said.
Zhang Yinghao put down his cigar and sat up straight.
Gu Qingshan continued: "There is no eternal power, no eternal stable social structure. Only by strengthening oneself and making oneself an unparalleled strong man can we lead human civilization forward in any good situation or difficult situation."
"You are the real nobles, although the older generation don't like people like you very much."
Tongtong was listening on the sidelines and couldn't help but whisper: "Damn it...Boss, why does he have the same idea as you..."
Zhang Yinghao was also a little distracted and hesitated: "Do you really think so?"
"You have also seen that the people from Jiufu want to kill me." Gu Qingshan said.
"So, we have indeed reached an agreement on the concept... but I really don't know what you want to do. After all, I have a large group of people working with me to make a living. Having ideals is not enough. What practical ideas do you have? Project?" Zhang Yinghao asked puzzledly.
"Now is not the time...there are some things that you shouldn't let you know too early, but you need to be prepared. We will do something practical next time we meet." Gu Qingshan said.
Zhang Yinghao was silent for several breaths.
——So mysterious?
What is the origin of the other party?
The purpose of finding the Assassin's Guild was obviously to assassinate certain people in the dark. Apart from that, what other purpose could there be?
"First of all, let's make it clear that my organization will not kill the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, pregnant women, ordinary people, people who do good, in short, it will not kill innocent people." Zhang Yinghao said.
"Don't worry, that's why I'm willing to come to you." Gu Qingshan said.
"Then we have reached a consensus again - but if you are not from Jiufu, which organization do you belong to?" Zhang Yinghao tried again.
"I didn't expect it." Gu Qingshan said calmly.
"...You haven't even thought of the name of the organization yet?" Zhang Yinghao hesitated.
"We just didn't think it would come out."
"……are you serious?"
"If you can, think of a name." Gu Qingshan couldn't help but said.
Zhang Yinghao paused and frowned.
If you want to come up with an organization name... it's not possible...
——But what exactly does this organization do?
He asked Gu Qingshan.
Gu Qingshan shrugged and said: "This has something to do with what we want to kill - I will tell you next time we meet."
He walked to the window and was about to leave, when Zhang Yinghao's voice suddenly sounded behind him:
"Wait a moment!"
"Huh? Is there anything else?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"As you said, if I really want to kill someone, I have to arrange my manpower - after all, with so many people working for me, you have to give me some housing allowance." Zhang Yinghao spread his hands.
Gu Qingshan was stunned and nodded naturally.
"——Give him money."
He threw away these words and flew out of the window. After a few ups and downs, he disappeared without a trace.
After he left, Zhang Yinghao and Tongtong stood in front of the window together.
What just happened was really bizarre.
"boss."
"Um?"
"This guy is so weird. Do you really want to cooperate with him?"
"We are in business and open to customers. If he really has a good way... cooperation doesn't matter. After all, he can even get our identity." Zhang Yinghao said.
"Boss, I wanted to take action a few times just now, but as soon as he glanced over, I didn't dare to move. I don't know why." Tongtong said doubtfully.
"This situation is extremely rare, basically because you have a premonition that you will die as soon as you take action." Zhang Yinghao said calmly.
At this time, his communicator beeped.
He picked up the communicator and took a look, and his whole body suddenly froze in place like a statue.
"President, what's wrong?" Tongtong became nervous.
"fine……"
"Look at the sweat on your head, something must be wrong!"
Tongtong looked at his communicator.
Only a few lines of small words stayed there:
"Your bank account has been changed."
"Your account expenses are listed as federal war expenditure items by the Goddess of Justice, and are classified as top secret."
"You can use all of the Federation's war readiness funds."
“No invoices are required, and Goddess Justice will immediately reimburse you for all expenses.”
"——This permission has been activated."
Tongtong finished reading it quickly and his mind went blank.
"——Use my citizen account to log in to the Federal Central Bank and enter the Personal Credit Center to see if it is true." Zhang Yinghao said in a low voice.
Without saying anything, Tongtong quickly took out a small optical brain and started operating it quickly.
She quickly connected to the Federal Central Bank and saw the corresponding information.
"Boss, it's true..."
Tongtong murmured softly.
Zhang Yinghao took the small optical computer and looked up.
I saw only one line of small words above:
"Federal citizen Zhang Yinghao, credit limit: ∞."
…
Gu Qingshan was walking alone on the street.
He deliberately found a deserted alley, walked to the end, and stood still inside.
Snapped!
A barrier emitting spiritual light emerged from his body, flickered briefly, and then disappeared completely.
Sixth level of Qi refining.
Gu Su'an's voice sounded: "Your Excellency, your evolution speed has suddenly accelerated, one hour and thirty minutes earlier than I expected. Why is this?"
Gu Qingshan looked at the dark ocean in the sky and said softly: "Time is running out, so I remembered a martial arts scripture... I'll just practice it first."
"What martial arts scripture is it?" Gu Su'an asked.
Gu Qingshan recalled Lin's words at that time and said:
"The name is not clear. It was passed on to me by Lin. It is said that the seeds of incredible power will take root just by chanting this sutra, let alone reciting and practicing it. I did not find this method in the human inheritance of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The traces of the martial arts scripture show that it is really precious."
"Please read it to me. I have recorded many secret records of human cultivation. Maybe I can match them." Gu Su'an said.
Gu Qingshan read it again.
"Strange, there is no corresponding information in the database." Gu Su'an said.
"This... is really a bit strange. I'll ask Lin about it next time." Gu Qingshan said thoughtfully.
He suddenly stopped.
At some point, layers of fog surged around.
Everything started to blur.
Gu Qingshan looked back and saw the woman standing quietly at the entrance of the alley.
"Xie Shuangyan... I remember you said that only if I defeat this doomsday will you appear in front of me again." Gu Qingshan said.
The woman said: "The situation has changed, listen -"
Gu Qingshan listened intently.
There was silence.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Gu Qingshan shook his head and was about to speak when suddenly an extremely subtle voice came from the street outside.
——It seemed as if something extremely heavy was being dragged along on the ground.
Immediately afterwards.
The smell of blood spreads with the wind.
A shrill scream rang out, and it suddenly stopped, as if something was strangled by the throat.
There were roars in the sky, and the police mecha formation was dispatched.
A group of people screamed in panic and ran past the alley.
The whole city seemed to be in some inexplicable restlessness.
Xie Shuangyan looked cold and said quickly: "Murderers and man-eating ghosts have begun to appear. This time it is not a weakened version of the doomsday, but its full glory - there are more than a thousand related mutant species."
"What about the method of communication?" Gu Qingshan asked calmly.
"Draw randomly. If selected, it will mutate immediately." Xie Shuangyan said.
"Then what do you want to say to me when you show up here?" Gu Qingshan asked again.
"Look at your feet." Xie Shuangyan said.
Gu Qingshan looked down and saw the shadow under his feet suddenly moved.
Von Hodder.
This is Von Hod's chosen skill, and he will take him to find Anna.
Gu Qingshan was stunned.
——Calculating the time, it’s almost time for this to happen.
Xie Shuangyan's voice sounded again:
"You have two choices, Gu Qingshan."
"The first option is not to see Anna and let her return to the Holy Kingdom as she did in her previous life. In this case, everything will remain as it is for the time being, and there will be no more doomsdays. You may be able to cope with it;"
"But why?" Gu Qingshan couldn't help but interrupt her.
"Because in this main timeline, you did not actually go to see her, and she will not stay in the Federation. Instead, she will return to the Holy Kingdom, return to her father, endure all the hardships, and become the 'Queen of Destruction' And accept her final fate - this is the true reality of your previous life." Xie Shuangyan said.
Gu Qingshan was startled and slowly understood.
Follow the shadow to find Anna - this will change all the events in this world and become exactly the same as on the other side of the closed loop -
This completely changed the previous life.
But!
If he doesn't go to see Anna, once Anna returns to the Holy Kingdom, an extremely miserable fate will be waiting for her.
——How can we let her go?
I always owe her a glass of wine, so how can I not go see her?
Xie Shuangyan looked at his expression and continued: "If you choose to see Anna, the end of the main timeline will be more violent and invincible. This is the revenge of fate;"
"If you choose to meet Anna, the world will end at a faster speed."
Xie Shuangyan said.
Gu Qingshan was silent for a breath.
I saw the shadow under his feet waving to him, getting off his feet and running towards an alley.
Xie Shuangyan said: "The time has come, Gu Qingshan, how will you choose?"
Gu Qingshan looked at the shadow and said softly:
"...Actually, I returned to this era...to change the destiny of this era."
"You only have the fifth level of Qi Refining." Xie Shuangyan said.
Gu Qingshan looked at her and said: "You may not know that ever since I completed the closed loop for the first time and woke up in the pit of the dead, I have been thinking about how to change everything. After a long battle, until I became Xinghe Saint, until I find my own path, until I have many strong partners around me - I am always thinking about how to undo these tragic things in the past, and now I finally return to this era - "
"Do you think I will let this era continue on its original track?"
"But there will be more and more powerful doomsdays. This is the reality. They will destroy everything." Xie Shuangyan said.
Gu Qingshan shook his head, took long steps, and followed the direction of the shadow.
His last words came through the mist:
"Any doomsday that dares to touch this era, I will let them know the true taste of eternal destruction."
"-I promise to do it."
