From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 716
Chapter 716 Misty Cloud City
After lunch, Chen Guang went back to sleep. After he woke up, it was already past five o’clock in the afternoon. However, the sun in early September was still incomparably hot. In the evening, the temperature did not go down. Chen Guangda casually put on a training shirt and went out. He went outside the barracks to see that Liu Wenna was already waiting for him with a small umbrella.
“Wow ~ So it turns out that your clothes are hotter than not wearing them …”
Chen Guangda flirtatiously whistled a hooligan’s whistle. He saw Liu Wenna wearing a pair of extremely short hot pants. Her upper body was a white tight T-shirt, not much revealing a small belly. She also wore a pair of khaki high heels, which almost perfectly displayed her good figure. The long wave was full of youthful aura.
“If I don’t dress up, I’m afraid I won’t be worthy of my leader …”
Liu Wenna happily walked up and held onto Chen Guangda, leading him to the street with laughter and talk. When Chen Guangda came back here, there were still living corpses everywhere, but now, great changes had taken place in this place.
Perhaps it was because apocalyptic people didn’t have the habit of saving money. Basically, they would spend money outside. If they died tomorrow, they wouldn’t be able to take it with them. Therefore, the streets and alleys were very bustling. Moreover, there were celebrations everywhere for the successful development of the corpse poison serum and the powerful promotional activities. The atmosphere was just like that of the New Year.
“Why is this place called Cloud Mist City? Who gave you the bird name …”
Chen Guangda looked at the shops on the roadside strangely. Many of the signboards belonged to Cloud Mist City. However, Liu Wenna hurriedly pushed him and said, “Don’t let anyone hear it. This name is taken from the War God’s Quotations. It’s all flashy. The meaning behind it is to remind us to be wary of danger in times of peace and not to be greedy for pleasure.”
“F*ck! Everything is a wargod’s quotation. It’s really not over …”
Chen Guangda wanted to vomit when he heard the word “Battle God”. He didn’t know which bastard raised his head. However, there were quite a few novelties on the streets. Other than those that didn’t sell themselves, there were basically everything else, including jugglers, hoops, and candy makers. The things that were about to be lost were once again shining with brilliance.
“Hmm? Why do we still sell guns? Why don’t we buy them …”
Chen Guangda was suddenly stunned. He saw a large shop with a weapon shop sign. Apart from cold weapons of various styles, there were also many pistols, shotguns, and the like. He even saw a Corpse Claw Spear and a Corpse Jumping Armor.
‘”This is a shop in the Tiger Head Mountain gathering area. They sell civilian weapons and military goods to the army. These are all specially approved shops by the city lord. There are two stores not as big as theirs in front of them …”
Liu Wenna looked at the shining corpse armor and helplessly said, “Ah ~ my only wish now is to save up money to buy a dragon scale armor. It’s at least safer to wear this thing. There’s no need to worry about it all day long. It’s not suitable for a soldier like me!”
“Why did you come to join the army? Are you short of money?”
Chen Guangda looked at her suspiciously. Liu Wenna’s eyes immediately darkened, but she shook her head gently. Chen Guangda could only hug her and walk into the weapons shop. There were a few strong men playing cards in the shop. Seeing them enter, Chen Guangda pointed at the corpse jumping armor and asked, “Boss! How much is this dragon scale armor sold?”
“100,000!”
A bare-armed man shouted without raising his head. Chen Guangda immediately stuck out his tongue in shock. His monthly salary was only 1,500 yuan. Even if he killed the living corpses all day long, he would still have to eat and drink them for several years before he could buy them. He truly did not expect the blooming corpses to be so valuable.
“Come on! I’ll give you one later and have someone make it for you to wear …”
Chen Guangda shook his head and prepared to leave. Who would have thought that a few strong men would suddenly burst into laughter. The bare-armed man laughed contemptuously and said, “You’re a new recruit egg. Don’t tell me, you’re not a small person. Do you think you can touch this thing if you want? Even if you do, it’s not something you can kill. Not a single platoon of people will die if you meet it, understand, kid?”
“How about this! Do you dare to make a bet with me? I can pierce through it with just an ordinary iron spear …”
Chen Guangda turned around and walked back with Liu Wenna in his arms. The strong men immediately looked at him as if they were crazy. The bare-armed guy smashed his cigarette butt and stood up. He sneered, “Alright! You can choose the iron spear in my shop. If you pierce through the Dragon Scaled Armor and take it away for you, then if you lose, your little girl will be happy with us brothers!”
“Let’s go! Let’s not be like them …”
Liu Wenna’s expression immediately changed. She hurriedly pulled Chen Guangda and wanted to leave, but Chen Guangda pushed her away without any hesitation. He directly moved the Dragon Scaled Armor and the plastic man into the middle. He picked out a handy iron spear and said, “Do you have any stakes? As many daddy as you bet, do you dare to play?”
“…”
The few sturdy men were slightly stunned. They didn’t expect Chen Guangda to be so confident. They even hurriedly inspected the Dragon Scaled Armor. After confirming that there was no problem, they smashed out a few thousand yuan and shouted, “If the Dragon Scaled Armor is pierced by you, I can kowtow to you and call you Grandpa. You great wargods are all wearing this!”
“Brother Tai! This … this thing can’t be pierced through with an iron spear, not even with a gun or a bullet …”
Liu Wenna was so anxious that her face turned pale. These men were all big, thick, and reckless. If she was brought back to play for a night, she would probably end up crippled. However, Chen Guangda was not even a dummy. After weighing the iron spear, he sneered and said, “Open your dog eyes wide and let me show you!”
“Bang ~”
Chen Guangda suddenly squatted at an angle of 45 degrees and abruptly stabbed the iron spear out. The accuracy of his spear was almost unmatched by anyone. After hearing a muffled bang, the dummy only lightly shook twice. However, the few strong men present were all dumbfounded. Even Liu Wenna opened her mouth wide in shock.
“Stab … stab through …”
The barehanded man almost swallowed his fist. He stared at the bull for a long time but couldn’t react. However, the iron spear stabbed into the dummy model’s abdomen. Several strong men immediately picked up their daggers and rushed forward. They stabbed around the Dragon Scaled Armor, but they couldn’t even pierce through the tip of the spear.
“Enough! Don’t dirty my Dragon Scaled Armor, 100,000 yuan …”
Chen Guangda proudly pushed away a few strong men, pulled down the dragon scale armor, and threw it at the surprised Liu Wenna. Then, under the bereaved expressions of several strong men, he smiled and took away five to six thousand gold coupons, causing Liu Wenna to almost scream with joy.
“Brother, tell me how you did it. Can I give you another carton of cigarettes?” The barehanded man quickly pulled him back and asked, “Brother, can I give you another carton of cigarettes?”
“Ten thousand! Tuition …”
Chen Guangda proudly stretched out a finger. Several sturdy men immediately rolled their eyes and watched him hug the girl and walk away with the spoils of war. However, Liu Wenna kissed him heavily as soon as she left the house and cried out excitedly, “Brother! You are really too powerful! How did you pierce through it?”
“Idiot! Didn’t you see that I stabbed my navel …”
Chen Guangda smiled as he hugged her and said, “Jumping corpses are also human corpses. Other than their eyes, their only weakness is their navel eyes. As long as the angle is right, they can easily stab into them. However, this is useless when killing them. Their navel eyes cannot stab them to death!”
“Wow! You’re really amazing! How do you know everything? I admire you so much …”
Liu Wenna clasped her hands excitedly. Her eyes were filled with stars, but Chen Guangda directly pinched her butt and said with a perverted smile, “I have something even more powerful. Do you want to try it? How about we order something to eat in the room?”
“Hateful! I didn’t agree to get a room with you …”
Liu Wenna wanted to refuse and punch him, but suddenly someone coughed again from behind. The two of them subconsciously turned around and saw that it was Yang Man and Guo Xinxin. However, Yang Man frowned and said, “In public, you two should pay attention to your image. Platoon Leader Chen, you are still wearing military uniform!”
“Don’t misunderstand! We’re just joking, good comrades …”
Chen Guangda raised his hands innocently, but Guo Xinxin suddenly discovered the Dragon Scaled Armor and immediately asked where Liu Wenna got it. However, Liu Wenna said proudly, “It was my Brother Tai who won it for me. He used an iron spear to pierce through the Dragon Scaled Armor and almost scared the urine out of those guys!”
“What? The iron spear pierced through the Dragon Scaled Armor …”
Yang Man took the Dragon Scaled Armor in astonishment and found a hole in it. After Liu Wenna repeated the trick, Yang Man looked deeply at Chen Guangda and paused for a while before saying, “The monk and the others coaxed me to treat you to dinner. Come with us. Everyone is already waiting in the restaurant!”
“Sure! I just happen to want to treat everyone to dinner as well …”
Chen Guangda agreed without any hesitation. Liu Wenna, who was somewhat disappointed, could only nod her head. Soon, they arrived in front of an antique mansion. Not only did it occupy a large area, there were all kinds of pavilions and ponds inside. It was obvious that the consumption level was not low.
“Yue Man Xi Lou! I like this name …”
After Chen Guangda looked at the plaque on the doorman’s head, he strolled in with Yang Man. A few cheongsam beauties immediately welcomed him, but Guo Xinxin said in a bullshit tone, “This is the highest-grade clubhouse in Cloud Mist City. Normally, people can’t get in even if they have money. Only our Yang team can get in and out at a 20% discount!”
“Oh ~ So there’s someone behind Team Yang …”
Chen Guangda looked at Yang Man with a flirtatious smile. Yang Man’s lips curled upwards and she did not deny it. However, Liu Wenna whispered, “They all said that there was a big shot behind Team Yang. However, they did not see anyone greeting her. It took a long time for Snob Wang to bully her. However, we guessed that Team Yang was just too proud and did not want to trouble the big shot behind her.”
“Hmph hmph ~ The temple’s little demon wind is strong, the Shallow Water King is more than eight …”
Chen Guangda curled his lips in disdain. The people of the country liked to unreasonably guess people’s backgrounds and relationships, but the biggest character in this world was himself. If his old brother knew Yang Man, he would know about it. What he hated the most was the fact that he didn’t even bother to greet Yang Man.
