Gu Qing Shan sensed something so he turned around, to unexpectedly find that his swords were all rattling ever so slightly.

As soon as the Earth sword and Six Paths Great Mountain sword noticed him staring, they stopped.

But the Chao Yin sword didn’t pay attention and was still rattling as Gu Qing Shan looked.

The Earth sword hit it once.

“What are the three of you doing?” Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.

“Strategy discussion” Shannu’s voice came from the Six Paths Great Mountain sword.

She seemed almost nervous.

The Earth sword solemnly answered: 「 That’s right, the technique just now was really powerful, we were discussing how to cooperate better 」

Gu Qing Shan turned away.

All three swords silently sighed of relief.

Laura stood on Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder as she tried to look far.

As they were in a snow storm, their vision was greatly limited.

This limitation was imposed by some kind of Law from the world, so no matter how good you were, the naked eye could only see so far ahead.

Laura thought for a bit before taking out a small backpack from her back.

She then reached in and randomly pulled out a one-eyed binocular.

Laura looked through the binocular to see further away.

“It is the same everywhere, some places have cliffs and monster” she spoke loudly, “I do not know where to go”

“We can only wait for directions now” Gu Qing Shan spoke.

As they spoke, a flash of light started blinking on the frozen wasteland.

At first the light flickered, then it turned into a pillar of light pointing to a certain direction and stayed that way.

It was a very clear directional marking.

“Sit down, we’re going” Gu Qing Shan said.

Laura obediently sat down on Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder again.

Gu Qing Shan lightly leapt forward, gliding towards the direction of the pillar.

They kept moving forward on the frozen wasteland.

Occasionally, a few big monsters would attack them from the cover of the snow.

Since Gu Qing Shan was in a hurry, he didn’t hold back at all, every monster that appeared was directly pummeled to death in the shortest possible time.

With spirit energy overflowing around his body, Gu Qing Shan was flying full speed close to the ground.

He was using the fastest speed he could to go towards where the light pointed.

This was a cliff.

Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to try checking the bottom of the cliff, but he couldn’t reach it.

Within the range of his inner sight, there was nothing but a steep cliffside on the frozen wasteland.

A voice suddenly rang out.

[As you performed exceptionally well, you received the highest qualification—– directly skipping all other tests to begin solving Triste’s official issue]

The voice continued explaining.

[A group of powerful monsters is about to appear. They are always hiding under the abyss of ice, wrecking havoc and causing damage when Triste doesn’t notice them. Even though this was a only a minor issue, it still cause Triste a lot of headache]

[Those who answered the call of the Bramble Birds, please help Bramble Bird Triste solve this minor issue]

[For those below 30 years old like yourself, this will be an arduous battle, please cooperate to win against these fierce enemies]

After declaring so, the voice went away.

“Is this the call of the Bramble Birds? It’s giving us a mission to accomplish?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Indeed. Normal calls of the Bramble Birds follow very similar procedures” Laura answered.

Gu Qing Shan looked down the icy abyss.

Sure enough, he noticed a horde of clumsy monsters in the abyss below.

Their bodies were transparent, allowing him to see all the strange inner organs they had.

But those organs looked almost like they were made of rocks and crystal, large and crude.

They were currently climbing up the cliff at quite the impressive speed, completely unexpected for bodies their size.

“Those are Ice Fiends” Laura told him.

“What are Ice Fiends?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“A kind of half-Elemental monster that is very hard to kill” Laura explained: “Being close to rocks and ice allows any wounds on their bodies to heal at a rapid pace, because they were originally made from these Elements”

As he saw the figures in the abyss becoming clearer and clearer, Gu Qing Shan silently scowled.

According to the voice, this kind of monster must be quite strong.

And requires cooperation to kill.

Combined with their hard-to-kill attribute, it’s better to just use Taiyi Sword Array again to deal with them swiftly.

Thinking that, Gu Qing Shan immediately spoke: “No matter, I’ll deal with them”

He prepared the hand seal again.

Oong!

The three swords appeared, pointing down at the icy abyss, giving off sharp killing intent.

They were ready.

“Wait a minute” Laura said.

“Hm? What is it?”

“You will consume too much energy using your full power all the time, I will help you”

“Didn’t you say you couldn’t do anything?”

“I will give the item, you will use it”

Laura searched inside her small backpack again.

This time she took a lot longer.

“Now where did I put it…”

Gu Qing Shan looked at Laura, then at the monsters in the abyss.

After waiting for a few seconds, he couldn’t help but speak up: “We don’t really have the time——-”

“Found it!” Laura joyfully declared.

She put something into Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

As Gu Qing Shan looked, he found that it was a pistol.

It was a delicate, tiny and cute silver pistol, it wasn’t even as big as Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

Trying to hold it, Gu Qing Shan found that he barely managed to fit his finger on the trigger.

“A gun?”

“This is for personal protection, sadly there was only one bullet left”

“Will this be useful?”

“You will know when you try it out”

Gu Qing Shan silently shook his head.

Are you kidding? How would a single bullet be enough to kill a monster?

A little girl is only a little girl after all.

As Gu Qing Shan wanted to return the gun to Laura, he suddenly realized something.

Kitty once said, any and every item that comes from the Mystic Zones is ridiculously valuable.

The Bramble Birds live in the Mystic Zones, and like to collect treasures.

If that wasn’t the case, why would so many people in the 900 million World Layers answer the Light of Dawn Triste’s call?

—–and this little girl sitting on my shoulder is the Bramble Bird princess, the heir to the throne of the entire Bramble Bird race.

Would someone of that stature randomly take out a useless item?

Gu Qing Shan was certain that wouldn’t be the case.

At the same time, a few lines of text showed up on the War God UI.

[Legendary Firearm: Divine Flame Bird Phoenix]

[War God Skills: This item does have include any learnable skills]

[Doomsday Chronicles: There are too many famous historical assassinations related to it, but for the last 10,000 years, it has disappeared without a trace. If you wish to know about the events prior to that, please spend 100,000 Soul Points or find a history book]

Gu Qing Shan was shocked.

This gun is probably really powerful.

Fine then, I lose nothing if I fire it once either way.

He held the silver pistol with both hands, aiming down the icy abyss.

“Then I’m going to fire it”

“Hm”

Laura used both hands to block her ears as she showed an excited expression.

Apparently she really enjoyed watching theatrics like these.

Gu Qing Shan precisely aimed at the first Ice Fiend and pulled the trigger.

Bang!

The silver pistol jerked back slightly.

Gu Qing Shan was surprised as he looked down the icy abyss.

The bullet went directly through the Ice Fiend’s body and went off the range of his inner sight in a split second.

So fast!

Gu Qing Shan silently evaluated a bit and found that if someone else had fired this gun at him while he wasn’t 100% cautious, it would’ve been very dangerous.

Back in the icy abyss, the Ice Fiend who got shot went stiff and slowly rolled down the cliff.

Its body quickly disappeared from sight.

“Excellent power and speed” Gu Qing Shan praised it before returning the gun to Laura.

“It had not started yet, we should back off a bit more” Laura told him.

Gu Qing Shan did not expect to hear that.

“Back off quickly, it gets a bit too hot that I cannot endure it” Laura urged him.

Gu Qing Shan quickly leapt back away from the cliff as she told him to.

As soon as he landed, a burning glow erupted from the icy abyss.

The temperature quickly rose as the ice itself began to melt, mixing with the debris of rocks and sand to form soot that soared to the sky.

Within the billowing smoke, numerous dull screams resounded.

Caw!!

A giant flaming bird made from molten magma flew out from the once icy abyss.

It spreads its wings as its body eclipses the entire area around the abyss.

The giant bird stared at Gu Qing Shan and spoke: 「 Please rate the service this time 」

Gu Qing Shan turned to Laura.

Laura looked back at him, saying: “You fired the gun”

Gu Qing Shan had to ask the flaming bird: “Did you kill them all?”

「 Not even scraps are left 」

“Maximum points!” Gu Qing Shan answered straight away.

The flaming bird nodded satisfyingly before fading away.

Gu Qing Shan was stunned for a bit before he walked to the cliff and looked down again.

Boiling lava was slowly flowing.

The cliff sides were glowing incandescent, large patches of ice and snow were melting, falling into the lava as they were turned directly to mist and evaporated.

Ice Fiends or whatever, they were already melted without leaving a single thing behind.

The icy abyss was now turned into a lava lake.

As he stared at this spectacular scene, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but ask: “That was the last bullet?”

“Yes it was”

“How regretful”

“What are you feeling regretful about? It was only a gun, I have a lot more toys you know” Laura mumbled in a low voice.
