Worlds’ Apocalypse Online - Chapter 45
Chapter 45: A Fight
“Do you really want my bow so badly?” Gu Qing Shan looked at Hui Shao.
Hui Shao smirked and said sarcastically: “Thief, that is MY bow”
A police walked up and said: “According to procedure, you’re now a suspect, we need to check your personal records before you can hire a lawyer”
Gu Qing Shan glanced at him and took out his Holo-Brain.
The police talking to him felt like he was being stared at by some sort of an ancient predator, while he was its prey.
He shakenly took out the scanner from his belt and scanned the Holo-Brain.
[Beep!]
[Checking personal record]
[Not enough authority, access denied]
The police Holo-Brain scanner repeated that message.
The nonchalant look on the other policemen all disappeared at the same time.
“Captain Zhang, it seems this brat has some status, you’ll have to do it” a policeman said.
“Alright, let me”
The police captain stepped forward, taking Gu Qing Shan’s personal Holo-Brain and scanned it.
[Beep!]
[Checking personal record]
[Not enough authority, access denied]
All the policemen looked at each other, their hearts sank.
Originally, they had thought it was a normal case of using status for bullying, but this looks more like a clash of giants instead.
If they don’t handle a problem like this well enough, they’ll pay very dearly.
Unconsciously, on their face showed a bit more respect.
A policeman who was standing near Gu Qing Shan reluctantly showed a stiff smile and said: “Please wait a minute sir”
And then they looked at the crowd like asking for help.
“You lot really can’t even handle a small matter, do I have to do everything?” a youth from behind Hui Shao stepped out and said tiredly.
He’s the son of the capital’s police department’s commissioner, having already joined the police department from long ago, right now he’s the department’s vice-commissioner.
And these policemen were his men.
He took out a small scanner and scanned Gu Qing Shan’s Holo-Brain.
[Beep!]
As the scanner worked, the records slowly appeared on the screen.
“Hah, it’s like I always have to do everything myself” boasted the youth as he showed a face of pride.
Suddenly, a voice was heard from the scanner.
This electronic voice also contained a hint of warning.
[Too many requests in a short period of time, increasing security level]
[Not enough authority, access denied]
Everyone was immediately stunned, their eyes looking at Gu Qing Shan became very anxious.
Just who is he?
Some of Hui Shao’s followers recognized Gu Qing Shan and his relationship with the President.
But they didn’t expect Gu Qing Shan’s authority level in Impartial Goddess’ system to be so high.
This meant that abusing the Law like they normally did wasn’t going to work.
Hui Shao suddenly smirked and spoke: “I knew I should have done this from the beginning”
He waved his hand.
Several of his subordinates came out from the corner, glaring intensely at Gu Qing Shan.
As the people stepped forward, their aura caught Gu Qing Shan’s attention.
“How interesting, since when did Elementalists become so cheap that they would become a noble’s servant?” Gu Qing Shan laughed.
As the men heard that, their faces all changed.
“You brat, how dare you”
As he said that, his hand glowed a black aura and quickly stepped forward.
“Elemental Dark? What a waste on someone like you”
Just as Gu Qing Shan said that, he had already raised his bow and fired.
His hands moved so quickly it became afterimages, all that could be heard were consecutive sounds of the string and that his arrows were disappearing one by one.
Cries of pain could be heard one after another.
The crowd couldn’t even tell what happened before Hui Shao’s subordinate all got knocked back.
As they turned around, they all gasped.
The five Elementalists were pinned to the wall, hanging with their feet in the air.
The arrows had pierced their shoulders all the way through and stuck themselves in the walls behind.
Red blood dripped down the white painted walls.
One of the Elementalists still didn’t give up and tried to raise his left hand.
A flame rose from his palm.
Just as the Elementalists wanted to act, he heard a voice asking.
“You want to test to see if you’re quicker, or am I quicker?”
Gu Qing Shan lightly asked.
His bow is still raised, but the aura around him already changed.
Cold as ice killing intent emitted from his whole body, locked straight onto the Elementalists on the wall.
A normal person who couldn’t even breach the first stage of Dark-element is basically harmless so he doesn’t need to care, but Fire-element is different.
Of the 5-Elements, Fire was among those with high destructive capabilities, if the opponent really dares to use it, Gu Qing Shan will immediately take his life without any hesitation.
The other person is also a veteran, as soon as he felt the killing intent, he looked to find a pair of calm eyes staring at him, and knew that he had really hit a hard wall this time.
His Fire-element was awakened very late, so he’s only just got to the second stage of “Searing Flame”, although the power is great, he still couldn’t control it at will yet and needs time to focus his power.
The enemy’s arrows are too quick, so quick that no one could react, so quick that he couldn’t react.
Just then, if he didn’t aim at my shoulder, but somewhere else…
He deeply sighed and reluctantly dropped his hands.
The whole scene went silent.
Step, step, step, Gu Qing Shan walked forward, to where Hui Shao is.
“You’re part of the 9 Lords?” he asked.
Hui Shao stuck out his chest and said: “I’m part of the Lord of the Capital, Huang family’s ——”
Bah!
With a single slap, Hui Shao was sent flying.
“You dare to hit me, I’m the second son of Huang Family, you’ll pay for this with your life!” Hui Shao held his bleeding face, screaming and shouting.
Gu Qing Shan stepped on his chest: “I know you have your backings, but if I kill you right here and now, who’s going to save you?”
Hui Shao immediately shut up.
Seeing his reaction, Gu Qing Shan understood right away.
This idiot was only stirring up trouble because someone drove him to do it.
There’s no point in paying too much attention to him.
But who’s behind him?
Perhaps the 9 Lords?
They seem to care about Su Xue Er a lot.
Something isn’t right.
Normally, a simple noble daughter wouldn’t draw the attention of so many aristocrats.
Perhaps Su Xue Er can bring them some sort of special benefits?
While he was silently pondering that, the group of youths around him were going crazy.
Most of them were quickly contacting their family members, one even pointed at him and shouted: “You’re finished! You dared to touch someone you shouldn’t have, no one can save you now!”
The policemen glanced at the bow in Gu Qing Shan’s hand, then again at the Elementalists being pinned on the wall, deciding not to do anything rash, they used their communicators to call for more reinforcements.
“Go ahead, I’ll be waiting right here” Gu Qing Shan said.
He then went up towards the shooting range and started target practice again.
If he doesn’t scare these useless young masters thoroughly, they’ll definitely not let this go and find the opportunity to get back at him.
Today, he has to scare them beyond reason to put this matter to rest.
Right at this moment, the archery range door suddenly opened.
An elegant female voice can be heard.
“Ah? So many people standing still in the archery range, what is this?”
Together with her voice, a beautiful female figure with her long head of crimson red hair entered the archery range.
Behind the girl was two rows of men, wearing black suits and a badge that signals the Confederate Special Security Forces.
