Chapter 1663: The Utopia of Sins

Chapter 1663: The Utopia of Sins

Gu Qing Shan took a deep drag from the cigar and breathed out a puff of smoke.

Without mentioning anything, this cigar is truly extraordinary.

“From now on, you’re my sworn brother. Whoever tries to offend you, just tell them my name, I guarantee it’ll be useful” the metal man patted his chest loudly.

——his entire body was made of metal, only his head still looked humanoid.

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Good brother, who exactly are you?”

“Liao Xiao Pao, but to my good friends throughout the infinite worlds, I’m known as Ironman”

“Niao Xiao Pao[1]?”

“-Liao Xiao Pao!” the metal man waved his hand and produced a few words written in common human language.

“Then should I call you brother Iron, or brother Liao?”

“Either is ok”

“Brother Iron, why did you suddenly arrive to pass judgement on me?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Liao Xiao Pao opened his eyes wide and refuted: “Judgement? I’m hardly qualified to use that word, by the way, did you get hurt at all?”

“I didn’t really get hurt, I just had an inexplicable hunch—— as if I was caught in some sort of Causality Law, unless I answer your questions honestly, I’ll be ordered to do something” Gu Qing Shan answered while weaving truth and lie.

Liao Xiao Pao was silently startled.

This person is truly impressive, being able to guess 70-80% of my ability even without noticing anything.

“Oh, that’s a misunderstanding, nothing but a misunderstanding. I’ll be honest, this is because I like to play game” he hurriedly said.

“Game? You’re telling me that this is a game?” Gu Qing Shan doubtfully asked.

“That’s right” Liao Xiao Pao answered with a serious expression: “Good brother, you probably don’t know, but this is one of the trendiest games recently. It’s called Truth or Dare, if you can’t answer the truth, you’d have to take a dare—— that’s why you felt that way”

Gu Qing Shan silently looked at him.

A line of glowing text hovered in the void of space:

[Causality Law: Judgement of the Saint Cavalry has disappeared]

——who are you trying to deceive, ‘truth or dare’

If it wasn’t for the Title [Pure Man], I might actually have already fallen victim!

However, since he couldn’t actually say that; Gu Qing Shan simply complained to himself.

“Alright, brother Iron, I’ll be heading off to leave this world system now” Gu Qing Shan said.

“You’re leaving already?” Liao Xiao Pao asked in surprise.

“That’s right. There’s nothing in this world at all, not even a single living being. I’m on my way to the next world system, then make my way further until I reach the central region of the Dusty World” Gu Qing Shan answered with half the truth.

Liao Xiao Pao observed the direction he was heading in, then lightly pressed his hand on a card reader inside his sleeves.

Tick!

A voice sounded from his mind:

[Boss, we’ve finished the cross examination, this person’s name isn’t on the list of competitors this time]

[-Furthermore, the Bell Tower world doesn’t allow anyone to arbitrarily walk around during the daytime, yet not only did he manage to appear out of nowhere, but no one had even tried to stop him. Most likely he had received a different authority from ours-]

[But other than qualification competitions, the Dusty World usually doesn’t permit entry unless someone from the inside had granted him the qualifications]

[Boss, please don’t kill him arbitrarily, this brat might have quite the background]

Liao Xiao Pao listened to the entire report with an unchanging expression.

Seems like it was the truth.

I can’t possibly fight him, or rather, I won’t fight him again for the rest of my life as long as I’m not an idiot.

But should I really just let him go?

“I think I still haven’t asked your name yet”

“Gu Qing Shan, this is my younger sister, Gu Laura”

Laura smiled at Ironman.

“You two, it’s not a good either to keep heading out like that since it’s almost night time already”

“What would happen at night?” Gu Qing Shan asked, seemingly interested.

“Didn’t your master tell you?” Liao Xiao Pao asked.

“This is my first time in the Dusty World. I got directly transported here from another world system, so of course I wouldn’t know” Gu Qing Shan answered like it was obvious.

Liao Xiao Pao narrowed his eyes.

That’s true.

It makes sense.

——people who have directly obtained their qualifications usually make their way into a world system on their own.

The bigshots will grant them qualifications but wouldn’t tell them anything else.

There are no issues with this youngster!

More importantly, he said that he wanted to head deeper into the world.

This is the center of the Dusty World we’re talking about!

Liao Xiao Pao was terribly shocked.

“Brother Gu, there’s no issue with the direction you’re heading in, but you’ll need to travel for five days straight before you can leave, did you know that?” he patted Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder and intimately asked.

“I know” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“Then how about coming with your brother here? It’s already late, so let big brother take you to a place you can enjoy yourself in” Liao Xiao Pao offered.

Gu Qing Shan appeared troubled: “But I need to hurry up and head out-”

“Ahaha, don’t worry, I know a certain kind of item in this world that can reduce the required time and let you leave this world a lot quicker. If you come with me, I’ll help you get one of them, how’s that?” Liao Xiao Pao said.

Gu Qing Shan appeared a bit hesitant.

At this point, it was nearly nightfall already, but a bit of commotion could suddenly be heard from afar.

“What’s that noise?” Gu Qing Shan became cautious.

“It’s nothing, they’re my men. They were helping me prepare a gift earlier, so it’s just about time that they arrived” Liao Xiao Pao said.

Gift?

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, a spaceship rapidly approached them from the sky.

Fwoom——

The spaceship had landed in front of the three of them.

Professionists disembarked from the spaceship one after another.

The Professionist who came down first was carrying a box with him and respectfully presented it to Ironman Liao Xiao Pao.

Ironman Liao Xiao Pao opened the box and explained:

“This thing right here is the universal encyclopedia of cooking recipes in our Reality. I noticed that brother Gu seemed to be someone who knows how to enjoy himself, so I’d like to give you this chip as a present”

He handed a computer chip to Gu Qing Shan.

This time, Gu Qing Shan was truly interested. To be able to cook food that he had never seen or thought about before was truly an interesting thing to him.

“Thank you, brother Iron, I like this gift a lot, but I don’t think I have anything to give you in return” Gu Qing Shan said.

Liao Xiao Pao put up his hand and told him without concern: “There’s no need to be so formal like that. When night time comes, I’ll take you to where you can find that item”

“You mean the item that can reduce our remaining time?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“That’s right, it can probably reduce your time by four and a half days” Liao Xiao Pao replied.

-in order words, I’ll only need to walk for half a day before we can leave!

Gu Qing Shan paused briefly.

If something like that does exist, I naturally need it.

“Alright, then we’ll wait here until nightfall” he finally said.

Liao Xiao Pao appeared delighted and ordered: “Men, prepare some alcohol, let me and brother Gu enjoy a few drinks while we wait until nightfall”

-the sun had already set.

Gu Qing Shan and Liao Xiao Pao drank a few large bottles of alcohol, while Laura also got to enjoy a few new kinds of fruit juices.

One of his subordinates stepped forward and reported in a whisper: “Boss, it should be soon”

Liao Xiao Pao then said: “Brother Gu, we’ve only known each other for a short time, but I can feel a clear connection between us. The members of our Ironman Vengeance Corps are all hotblooded young men, so if you have anything you need later on, just come to us”

Gu Qing Shan laughed and replied: “Very well, then if brother Iron has something you need help with later on, you can come to this Gu Qing Shan as well”

Liao Xiao Pao’s eyes lit up briefly in joy, then put down his glass and laughed heartily: “Come, let big brother show you the true face of this world”

He took out two pairs of metal glasses from behind his back, handed one of them to Gu Qing Shan and put one on himself.

“Little sister Gu, I’m sorry, but these things are too precious, and I only have two of them with me, so if you want to take a look, you’ll have to borrow it from your brother”

Laura pursed her lips, a bit displeased.

As Gu Qing Shan accepted the metal glasses, lines of glowing text appeared in the void of space:

[You’ve obtained a pair of Void Phase Realm Glasses]

[Through these glasses, you will be able to observe Phase Realms that overlap with the main world, continuing this effect for two hours]

[After two hours, the Void Phase Realm Glasses will be completely broken]

Skimming through this, Gu Qing Shan handed the glasses to Laura.

“Big brother, you can use it, no need to care about me” Laura was naturally considerate and hurriedly refused.

“It’s ok, I can already see it” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Complete silence.

“Brother Gu, what did you just say?” Liao Xiao Pao asked.

“Phase Realms, I can see them” Gu Qing Shan explained.

Liao Xiao Pao remained silent a bit and explained: “… That is… Brother Gu, mortals cannot possibly observe Phase Realm with their naked eyes-”

He suddenly stopped talking.

Gu Qing Shan was pointing at a certain point in the sky.

In that place, a city was slowly appearing from the void of space and gradually turned from incorporeal to solid.

The city gave off a mystical light that fully illuminated the night sky.

“There’s a city there, isn’t there?”

Gu Qing Shan simply commented.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[You’ve discovered the Void Phase Realm: Utopia of Sins]

[This is a world with the dream and death jurisdiction, please be prepared to protect your life]
