Dark Blood Age - Chapter 43
Chapter 43: Chapter 43 Join The Fight
Qian Deduo used to be an ordinary student at Dong Shen university. With the ability to kill three red-shelled insects, he gained three seats on the bus. He was also promoted to be the team leader of the fifth team.
He did not used to be very popular with girls. But now? He became a chick magnet.
Qian Deduo was bragging non-stop about how the prettiest girl in their academic department used to ignore him, and how she kept looking for him now. He was so excited that he even had foam in his mouth when talking. Yu XiaoHai was so tempted, so Qian Deduo clapped his chest and promised that he would definitely find some pretty girls for Yu Xiaohai.
While Chu Yunsheng took Lin ShuiYao to bus No.1, Lin ShuiYao told Chu Yunsheng how she ended up in a situation like this. She had been invited to join an event during the age of the light, and the five stars hotel, where he saved Yu Xiaohai, was the hotel, where she had been allocated.
They were protected by the military troop at that time. However, when they tried to retreat to a military base, the insects appeared. Her assistant and manager were both killed that day, and the rest of people had to go back to the hotel.
Later on, they joined a crowd and tried to escape the city the second time, but once again the insects appeared, she thought that she was going to die until one guy dragged her away.
Chu Yunsheng didn’t know why she was telling him this. He didn’t want to get to know her at all. He guessed that she was finally feeling safe and now she needed to get all the negative feelings that had been built up in the past off her chest.
But he was not a psychiatrist, so he didn’t want to spend time comforting her. This world was collapsing, if she still felt comfortable about it, then she definitely had a serious mental problem.
After Chu Yunsheng settled down Lin ShuiYao, he went back to the truck. Sitting quietly on the side, he quickly started to cultivate Yuan Qi. Qin Heng and other team members also stopped annoying him.
The fifth team originally had two people, the team leader Qian Deduo and one female team member Zhou Tingyun.
Zhou Tingyun wasn’t happy with the conversation between Yu XiaoHai and Qian Deduo, but she was just a team member and her ability was very weak. She could only kill one red-shelled insect. So even though she wasn’t happy, she was in no position to make a complaint.
Originally, she wanted to talk to the guy, who cut the insect’s shell in halves, and who was always wearing a seemingly ancient armor. She wanted to discuss and exchange some awakening experiences with the person. However, that guy just closed his eyes and sat there and didn’t say a single word since he came back.
Time slowly passed in this kind of atmosphere.
After a while, Chu Yunsheng suddenly opened his eyes and instantly stood up, it made everyone around him very nervous.
It was the smell of blood, and it was very heavy!
But this was not important, the important was that the smell came from the front of the crowd, not the back. It meant that something happened at the front!
Chu Yunsheng immediately drew the sword, he couldn’t let guard down at any second. The red sword instantly startled everyone on the truck, they still remembered what happened to the insect’s shell.
Chu Yunsheng didn’t care about what they thought, he jumped on top of the truck, adjusted the night vision goggles, and started to scan the front of the crowd. He needed to know all the information about the danger before it got near him.
However his night vision goggles could not see places far away, what he saw was the chaotic crowd and people’s heads moving in the crowd, nothing else!
Just when he was very anxious about the unknown, suddenly, a flare was fired into the sky at the front of the crowd. It was just one but it was so bright that it was enough to illuminate the area.
Qian Deduo stroke his chin a few seconds before he said, “brothers and sisters, get ready, it’s the captain’s signal!”
The truck couldn’t move now, it was stuck in the crowd.
Zhang ZiCheng selected the fourth and the fifth team to respond to the call because both teams had new team members. A total of nine people led by each of their team leaders quickly jumping out of the truck and heading towards the front of the crowd.
The people in the crowd spontaneously moved aside, they made a narrow way that was barely enough for them to fit through.
Chu Yunsheng knew Yu Xiaohai did not restore much energy. Yu XiaoHai just relied on his body to recover the energy itself, which was way too slow than Chu Yunsheng. But Zhang ZiCheng already had Yu Xiaohai’s information reported to the lab. Hopefully, soon, they would be able to find out what was the best way for him to increase his strength.
Yu XiaoHai roughly estimated that he probably could trigger one frost arrow, but only with half of its original power. Qian Deduo thought that it was better than nothing, after he got Yu XiaoHai’s information, so he still brought Yu Xiaohai with them.
The closer they got to the front, the more horrible screams and violent gunshots they could hear.
Many people were running back from the front giving the escort teams a lot of trouble. Until they finally squeezed to the front, they saw Zhong Nan had just killed one red-shelled insect.
“Why are you so late?” Zhong Nan shouted after he saw everyone arrived late.
Jiang Ye, the fourth team leader responded, “Captain, don’t blame us, the truck was stuck and everyone was pushing back, we did our best.” he looked dejected.
Zhong Nan’s face didn’t look so well, probably he had just had a fierce fight with the insects, and he was exhausted, “half of the fourth team and the fifth team are new, remember, just break their defence layer, leave the rest to the troops, there are still twelve insects, hurry up!”
Although Jiang Ye talked back, he also didn’t dare to slow down one bit, because the insects almost broke through the troop’s defence line.
The ground was full of blood, it felt sticky when people stepped on it. Bodies were scattered around, some were soldiers, some were university students, some were kids. Some were cut in halves, some had a big hole in their bodies, and all the organs were mixed with blood and fell on the ground.
Chu Yunsheng was already familiar with this kind of scene, it might be horrible and bloody, but it didn’t affect him much.
Before they all charged out, Qian Deduo said, “you need to be careful of the bullets, one or two may not kill you, but if it’s a machine gun, you will die, also they didn’t have time to prepare the bulletproof vests, so you need to be extra careful!”
Chu Yunsheng didn’t need their bullet-proof vests, nor did Yu Xiaohai. The energy shield talisman was strong enough to stop the bullets, not to mention the armor.
Looking around, he noticed that there were five red-shelled insect’s bodies lying on the ground. Then he immediately jumped over a car and rushed towards the red-shelled insects that were still trying to break through the defence line. He needed to hurry up killing all those insects. Otherwise, the Yuan Qi inside the dead insects would dissipate very soon!
Then, he saw three soldiers using automatic rifles shooting at an insect that was rushing towards them frantically.
One of the soldiers was in a frenzy of rage, he took out a grenade and shouted, “Qiang Zi retreat, let me take them to hell!”
Chu Yunsheng wanted to stop him, but it was too late, the soldier had already rushed towards the red-shelled insect, and collided with the insect’s sharp and spiky leg. He was hooked by the thorn on the insect’s leg.
The soldier grinned maniacally, “die! You motherfucker!” he used all his remaining strength to pull himself out. The wound was sliced open by the insect’s leg, the blood and organs were bursting out. But it didn’t stop him, he reached out his hand and stuffed the grenade into the insect’s mouth. Although the arm was broken by the insect mouth, he still shoved his broken arm deeper into the insect’s mouth.
“Boom!”
A loud explosion, even though the insect’s defence was strong, it still lost its half jaw. It was in great pain, and the pain made it even angrier. When it was about to take the anger out on the last two soldiers.
