Doomsday Wonderland

Chapter 558: Lin Sanjiu The Doomsayer

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The days after leaving Gizo’s territory were tough. For months, Jujube and Lin Sanjiu traveled across different deserts.

These deserts were scattered in various terrains, but none of them seemed to be the desert where she lost her grand prize. To make matters worse, her memories were becoming vague and out of sequence. She could hardly remember the topography of the desert. Besides, every desert looked almost the same. The more she saw, the more she was uncertain.

She was confident that, like her, her grand prize was roaming around the Salvation of God. The longer the time, the slimmer the chance of finding her grand prize. She knew that she could only do her best and leave the rest to fate.

This was because the land of Salvation of God was too large. Every effort she poured was nothing but akin to dredging for a needle in the sea.

It was also because of this reason that, although the effect of the sacred sound Jujube put on her was getting weaker with every passing day, Lin Sanjiu did not escape. After all, given her walking speed, she certainly wouldn’t be able to travel through the entire Salvation of God from end to end before the day she transferred to another world. So, why not make use of the giant to help her walk?

Perhaps Jujube had begun to trust Lin Sanjiu after spending some time with her. Every time they reached a new place, he would allow her to roam around freely to look for her grand prize and leave behind some marks.

Lin Sanjiu let out a sigh and threw away the sharp stone she used to make the mark. She raised her head and looked into the sky.

On top of the dense foliage, there was a huge body that dwarfed even the tallest tree in the forest. He stood at a height almost akin to that of a mountain peak, looking as if he was propping up the sky. However, Jujube wasn’t the tallest in Salvation of God; in fact, he was just mediocre. Nevertheless, he still emitted a menacing aura when somebody looked at him from a worm’s eye view. Right now, his face was gloomy and grim. He turned around to survey their surroundings.

Lin Sanjiu was very clear as to why he looked so displeased.

Over the months they had roamed across the land, they did not come across as many gods of Jujube’s caliber as they had expected, let alone meet Jujube’s archenemy—Sanduria. They did, however, bump into a few gods. But those gods were too big, so big that Jujube and Lin Sanjiu could do nothing but hide or run away whenever they saw them from afar. And so, a few months passed like this. Not only did they not gain any idols, but there were also times when they almost became the nourishment for those Titan.

Jujube once gloomily said to Lin Sanjiu, “The population of Lesser Gods is thinning. A new Titan is going to be born again.”

But Lin Sanjiu knew that this was not the only reason that Jujube was unhappy.

Although Jujube refused to tell her, she somehow had an inkling after spending some time observing him.

Jujube was looking for something.

There were times where after putting her down to search for her grand prize, Jujube would go away. Were it not for his footfalls and the commotion he created when he walked, Lin Sanjiu might have thought that he wanted to part ways with her.

Although Jujube tried to cover up his intentions by strolling around casually, Lin Sanjiu knew full well that he was looking for another ability.

During her time with Deun, she noticed that although his Divine Power had leveled up, his attacks were straightforward and simple. He did not have a power like Deva, who could reap people of their mobility with a snap of her finger, nor could he alter his own size at will like Puella. His Divine Power was so weak that it could not even be compared to Jujube’s broken sacred sound.

Initially, Lin Sanjiu thought it was because Deun was too weak. However, on second thought, if it were credited to Deun not having an “ability,” everything would be much easier to explain.

And now, she had a shred of decisive evidence on hand that could back up her conjecture.

When Lin Sanjiu thought about this, she looked around for Jujube. After confirming that he wasn’t paying attention to her, she lowered her head and began to study the card in her hand. The card of Gizo had turned into two cards. She couldn’t wait any longer to find out why.

[An Unidentified Man’s Dead Body]

It is the body of an old man. The cause of death is the massive hole in his chest. His appearance is, to put it in words, one-of-a-kind (Refer to the figure). If his nose had grown any longer, perhaps he could have joined a freak show. But anyway, Lin Sanjiu isn’t the murderer.

The description seemed insignificant and somewhat trite, similar to the elder brother’s legs. What made Lin Sanjiu even sadder was that it made no mention of the old man once being a “god.”

But the other card was different.

[Salvation of God’s Native Product]

An item native to the Salvation of God. It existed inside the body of the old man even after he died, only revealing itself as the “second item” after Lin Sanjiu turned it into a card. As you can see, this card has no pattern. Please don’t get me wrong; the card is not loafing around on the job. It’s just that it’s impossible to draw out the item. The reason being that this item existed as “bloating” inside the old man’s body when he was still alive

The airlike local product seems to have a special effect on the user. Devour this “bloating” once you have reached Divine Power Level 20 or have power equivalent to it. Then, you will know how wonderful this item is. It can grant the user control over the sand, allowing the user to alter the physical properties of the sand to his or her own preference.

As for more specific information, well, bite the bullet and devour it. However, please do not swallow it if you did not reach the criteria as mentioned above. It would be a waste.

‘I guess Jujube has no idea that the thing he has been searching for is right in front of him.

‘But why didn’t Sanduria take this ability along with her?’

She did not have the time to think of an answer to that question, as Jujube gestured her to get onto his shoulder; they soon got moving.

While they were moving to their next destination, Lin Sanjiu asked furtively, “...Oh yeah, do you know what kind of ability Gizo had?” contemporary romance

“Some pesky stuff. Nothing worth mentioning,” Jujube pouted sulkily. After a few seconds, Jujube began to talk again. “The ability to control sand was pretty useless, but he also had an ability that could refract starlight. That one was pretty good, but of course, it’s only good for a false god such as him. It’s not usable for a True God like me.”

Lin Sanjiu had no idea what he could possibly gain from refracting starlight, but still, it sounded more convincing than Jejebu’s broken sacred sound.

After getting an answer, Lin Sanjiu pressed on. “Then how about Sanduria?”

“That bitch—” Jujube’s face instantly turned grim. “Originally, she was much weaker than me. Her Divine Power level was lower than mine, and the only thing she had was that “flattering skill”. It’s not a great ability, but it’s acceptable. But now... now I’m not so sure.”

If she allowed him to continue on this topic, he might begin to lash his anger out on her again. This was because ever since their alliance, they had come across only a few Lesser Gods. And naturally, Lin Sanjiu could defeat none of them. It was just that Jujube wouldn’t analyze whose fault it was when he was angry.

As such, Lin Sanjiu quickly changed the topic. “Oh yeah, what’s up there? I’ve seen gods come down from there before.”

Jujube shifted his eyes to his shoulder but said nothing.

“If you guys came from there, why don’t you return and hunt some Lesser Gods up there? Don’t you think it’s a much better option than wasting your time down here? Also, can Sanduria bring her posthuman warrior back to the white mist? Why do you never bring me up?” Lin Sanjiu shot every question she could think of at Jujube. But the latter was extremely reticent about his origin. Usually, he would ignore her.

Lin Sanjiu had tried all kinds of ways to gain more intel from him, but Jujube never fell for her tricks.

Suddenly, the ground shook. Neither Jujube nor Lin Sanjiu could respond in time before two legs cladded in red cloth, then a midriff, and finally, a chest came down from the white mist above. Very soon, a Titan appeared in front of them, blocking their way. The god was way larger than Jujube; she needed to squat down before Lin Sanjiu could see her face.

“Its Sanduria!”

Lin Sanjiu gasped in horror when she saw the head—almost the same size as hers—sitting on top of the Titan’s shoulder. She turned around to look for Sanduria’s warrior, but she couldn’t find any sign of him around. But that wasn’t important now because compared to Sanduria, Jujube looked just like a two-year-old toddler. His countenance was grim, and he turned to run when he realized the dominance over the situation did not belong to him.

Lin Sanjiu grasped his shoulder for dear life. She almost got blown away by the wind. However, Sanduria wasn’t going to let them escape. She stretched her leg and was once again in front of them, yelling, “Stop!”

Jujube pressed his two feet firmly on the ground and slid for a long distance before finally coming to a stop. He was just an inch away from falling into Sanduria’s embrace, but Lin Sanjiu wasn’t so lucky. Due to the inertia, she rolled down Jujube’s back, and if it weren’t for her quick response of grasping onto his skin, she might have fallen to the ground already.

“I heard that you are looking for me?” From Sanduria’s standard human-sized head came a rumbling voice that went very well with her size. “Good, because I was looking for you as well.”

“What do you want to do? To slay the one and only True God?”

‘Oh, for God’s sake. He still clings to a thing like that at a moment like this?’ Lin Sanjiu chided Jujube inwardly as she climbed back up to his shoulder.

Sanduria harrumphed, huffing a puff of hot air through her nose. “I will let you live for another day. I have something good to tell you...”

Sanduria suddenly stopped talking and stared at Jujube’s shoulder. Jujube followed her gaze and saw Lin Sanjiu, who was getting up from his shoulder. He turned his head back to see that Sanduria had pressed her head closer. She measured Lin Sanjiu from head to toe, then toe to head again before sighing dejectedly.

“So you’re not the one I’m looking for,” Sanduria muttered under her breath. She then turned back to Jujube. “Your posthuman warrior sucks. How about I give you mine?”

As she said this, she pulled out something from her waist and put it on her palm for Jejebu to see. Piqued by her curiosity, Lin Sanjiu stole a glance, and to her surprise, she saw a posthuman sitting on top of Sanduria’s palm.

It was difficult for Lin Sanjiu to see the posthuman’s appearance from her distance. She knew that he was a man with a mesomorphic build. His skin was tanned, and he was not an Asian. She couldn’t find anybody in her mind that matched his physical appearance.

Jujube was skeptical about Sanduria’s sudden act of kindness. He took a step back and asked warily, “What do you mean? Are you plotting against me?”

“Do I even need to plot if I want to take your life?” Sanduria scoffed. Then, she brought the tanned-skin posthuman closer to Jujube. “There is a new Titan here, and I need allies. So I’m willing to hand him to you in order to help you...”

Lin Sanjiu was even more skeptical than Jujube. What would Jujube do to her if he took up Sanduria’s offer? She couldn’t be sure. While Jujube was still talking to Sanduria, Lin Sanjiu rummaged through her card slot to see which Special Item she had never used before in front of him to protect herself should anything go sideways.

Normally she would call forth the desired card in her mind. It had been a long time since she had opened her card inventory like this. But if she did not open her card inventory now, she might have never realized that the [eBay] card was flickering. It seemed like it had been in this state for a long time. She held it in her hand, closed her eyes, and entered [eBay]. Then, a message popped up.
