Chapter 626 - Payment
Chapter 626: PaymentTranslated by: La0o9
Edited by: Dr.Lock
Proofreader: Arya
Gu Qing Shan’s heart felt as cold as the Frozen Hell itself.
That indescribable feeling just now caused him a chill so bad that the back of his shirt was soaked in cold sweat.
Luckily, at the very last moment, he managed to remove the means for that entity to appear.
Otherwise, something even more unexpected might have happened.
After calming himself down a bit Gu Qing Shan wielded the Devil King Warden Rod again and left hell.
He quickly crossed the Forgetting River and found the nearest warp point to return to the small town from before.
“How was it, successful?” Barry asked.
Gu Qing Shan smiled bitterly: “At first it was quite successful, but I ran into some trouble at the end”
He told everyone what happened from start to end.
Hearing that, everyone was in shock.
“Damn, what kind of thing was that exactly?” Zhang Ying Hao asked.
“There are a lot of unknown and strange things in the 900 million World Layers, there’s no need to be too alert” Barry reassured everyone.
Seeing Gu Qing Shan still sullen, he asked: “What is it? Do you still feel uncomfortable?”
“No” Gu Qing Shan slowly spoke, “according to what you said, the entire 900 million World Layers assumes that the entity is dead—– but it was still alive, and currently hiding in God Institute, so it was obviously planning something”
Kitty agreed: “That is true, the people of God Institute went mad from their failed experiment, so most of the Lords we know tend to stay away from them or keep a certain distance in order to avoid contact, but at the same time empathizing with them. However, if these people weren’t simply mad, but rather an organized evil organization, the Lords would definitely react differently”
Barry was then a bit interested and commented: “Ah, if that was the case, then it certainly is worth it for us to take actions”
He then turned to Gu Qing Shan and asked: “What are you thinking?”
Gu Qing Shan said: “I want to know if there are any central intelligence organization or structures within the 900 million World Layers”
“There is, the Spire Keeper Association is the most well-trusted and widely recognized intelligence organization. Their “Spire Intel” newspaper is very valuable and is subscribed to by many big wigs and Lords all around the 900 million World Layers”
A newspaper made by the Spire Keeper Association?
Gu Qing Shan then recalled how many people knew about him simply by being in the same shot as Barry when news of his recovery went on to become a headline.
“Do you think they’ll be interested in this piece of intel?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
Barry answered: “Of course, they’re always interested in real-time news, and pay handsomely for it as well”
Gu Qing Shan then smiled and spoke: “That’s great, then we can sell this intel to them, not only will we get a bit of spending money, we can also cause the people of the 900 million World Layers to be truly cautious of God Institute, what do you think?”
“Perfect!” Kitty raised both hands and cheered: “The Spire always pays a lot, now that we don’t have any debt, we’ll even have enough for a small vacation!”
Barry also grinned.
Even someone who likes using IOUs like him wouldn’t reject an opportunity to earn some cash.
“Alright, let me contact them, this Barry’s reputation around the 900 million World Layers should be trustworthy enough for them” Barry said.
“Bro, you can sell the intel, but don’t mention anything about Gu Qing Shan. Before he fully matures, it’s better for those people to not feel threatened by him” Kitty reminded him.
“Don’t worry, I know what to do” Barry replied.
Taking out a blank old newspaper, he cleared his throat and spoke into the newspaper: “I’m from the Justice Iron Fist Club, Iron Fist Barry, requesting contact”
A few moments later, an old voice came: “So it’s Barry, congratulations, the Bramble Bird Empress had paid back your debt in full”
“Ahaha, seems so”
“So, what did you contact us for? Do you need travel services, or did you want to buy information?”
“Neither, instead I have a piece of intel I want to sell you”
“Ah?” the old voice raised slightly, “how rare for you to have information to sell, wait a moment then”
“Sure”
A little bit after, words began to appear in the newspaper.
Gu Qing Shan took a look to see that the words were written in the Spire Keeper Association’s language, the gist of it was simply a contract, things like guaranteeing that the intel sold must be true or trustworthy, the sold intel couldn’t be sold to any other organizations, where the intel came from, what rank it was, so on and so forth.
A quill jumped out from the newspaper and appeared in front of Barry.
Taking the quill in hand, Barry wrote the intel he was told about God Institute, then signed his name.
Hoh—
A small fire came from the newspaper.
The words on it were burnt to ash as the newspaper itself returned to being blank.
A few dozen seconds later.
The old voice came again: “According to the Law of Contract, your name and intel had made it through the lie detector”
“What shocking news, this can definitely make tomorrow’s headline—— no, we will immediately call our people to cancel today’s headline and replace it with this one”
Barry grinned: “Seems like my intel was very well-received”
“Of course! Barry, I really couldn’t believe you’d get ahold of such a secret. Even our chairman was intrigued by this news”
“Then how much can I get for it?” Barry asked.
“The news is being ranked by the chairman himself so the amount is still being calculated, we’ll wire it directly to your personal account once it’s done”
“Great”
“Then it’s settled, if there are any other news, feel free to contact us at any time”
“No problem”
At this point, the voice disappeared from the newspaper.
Barry put the paper away and looked at Gu Qing Shan.
“You just made a killing” he said.
“We still don’t know how much it is” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“Any piece of intel personally judged by the Spire’s chairman himself has always been pricey”
Gu Qing Shan told them: “Consider it the Club’s funds then, without you guys here, I would still be troubled not knowing how to deal with those people”
Barry and Kitty both nodded, unable to hold back the huge grins on their faces.
The Spire Keeper Association had always been a wealthy organization that paid handsomely for good work, Barry and Kitty had been living in debt for so long that it had been centuries since they made such a huge amount of money.
Barry thought for a bit and spoke: “From now on, you’ll be in charge of the Club’s finances”
This was the same as giving the money back to Gu Qing Shan, at the same time giving him a certain degree of power in the Club.
At the start, Barry had invited Gu Qing Shan to stay because he felt that he was a diamond in the rough.
But after the Bramble Bird’s business as well as this time’s matter, Gu Qing Shan abilities had been recognized by Barry.
——Gu Qing Shan was already a true diamond whose talents were perfectly displayed.
The only imperfection for now was that his strength still left a lot to be desired.
Asides from that, Barry and Kitty have already considered Gu Qing Shan their equal.
Thinking of the amount of money they’re about to get, Kitty couldn’t help but pat Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder and smiled brightly: “Gu Qing Shan, well done, next time I’ll bring you out shopping”
“I don’t really like to go shopping though”
“Oh you will, there are countless equipment shops around the 900 million World Layers that you wouldn’t even be able to imagine”
“That’s sounds great then”
“Let’s leave that for the future, what are we going to do now?” Barry asked Gu Qing Shan.
When talk came to business, Gu Qing Shan regained his seriousness.
“I need to ask something first—– Impartial Goddess, where are you?”
[I’m here, sir] Impartial Goddess answered him.
“Does the North Pole’s Interstellar Spaceship belong to the 9 Lords?”
[Indeed]
“How much do you know about that spaceship?”
[All I know is that I was created there, other than that, I know nothing]
“Nothing else at all?”
[Indeed sir. Because that place is the holy land of the 9 Lords, besides the Guardian, no one is allowed entry]
“Including you?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
[Including me] Impartial Goddess confirmed.
“I remember you said that before her death, the Guardian gave you freedom?”
[She had indeed done so, but after those people killed the Guardian, they had taken over the North Pole, no satellite or drones I sent were able to access it, so I still haven’t been able to enter the spaceship to search it up until now]
“Those people have already been killed, you can now dispatch drones to create a warp point on the North Pole, we’ll make a trip there ourselves”
[Understood, sir. Please wait for 10 minutes]
Impartial Goddess answered.
Above the stratosphere of the North Pole.
At the nearest orbital station, numerous automatic doors that looked like honeycombs opened up.
Several hundred mini drones were shot out from the station, activated their thrusters in the air and quickly headed towards the North Pole.
As these drones landed, they began to act according to their programming and built a warp point.
With several hundred drones on the same job, the warp point was quickly established.
Gu Qing Shan’s group quickly went through the warp device to arrive at the North Pole.
