Dark Blood Age

Chapter 94: Chapter 94 Unknown Monsters

Chu Yunsheng didn’t care about what Witch was doing. It was not his business either. Moreover, people were willing to believe the Witch, and the Witch was happy to preach, so he couldn’t do anything about it.

After Lao Chui’s group ate the food, they looked much better, there were even smiles on everyone’s faces, and they also got the broken car fixed very soon. The human’s potential was truly limitless, didn’t and hope could be changed just in a split second. It was just like magic.

………..

In the silent night, the wind seemed to have stopped.

Chu Yunsheng had been practicing his cultivation method for quite a while now. Yuan Tian stage two had five sub-stages, he needed to complete those five sub-stages to fully transform his body. But now, he just barely completed the first substage. He didn’t know how powerful he would become when he reached the second substage, all he knew was that the more sub-stages he completed, the more powerful he would become.

In fact, not only did he know about this, but the other awakened warriors also knew this as well. Apart from the “Witch” who was mainly focusing on preaching other people, the rest of the awakened warriors were trying all kinds of methods to increase their strength.

This was their only way of surviving. God has given them incredible abilities, now it was down to themselves to find a way to increase the power of their individual abilities.

All five people had different kinds of thoughts. Since Chu Yunsheng solved the food crisis, Huang Renkuan once again changed his position to support Zhao Shanhe. Even the “Witch” and Tian Weidai all turned their back on Li Yue, The Chef was always quiet, so all of the sudden, Li Yue was on his own.

Meanwhile, seeing Chu Yunsheng was still awake, Tian Weidai secretly approached Chu Yunsheng. He took out a crumpled cigarette box from deep inside his coat, borrowed the fire from Chu Yunsheng, and then took a deep drag. After that, he passed it to Chu Yunsheng, asking Chu YunSheng to try it as well. But Chu Yunsheng shook his head. He didn’t take it.

“Brother Chu, do you think there is an afterlife?” said Tian Weidai.

“Maybe.” said Chu Yunsheng. Everyone would ask themselves this question at some point in their lives. Chu Yunsheng had also thought about it before, but in the end, he still could not find the answer.

“My presents died when I was a kid, I became a soldier when I was eighteen. Our platoon leader was always looking after me, he treated me like his own brother.” said Tian Weidai. There was a soft gleam flashed in his empty eyes as he said it, but it quickly disappeared. He was dispirited.

“When I was still defending Shen Cheng city, half of the soldiers in our company had already died, but the headquarters still told us that they had not yet evacuated the entire city, they wanted us to hold the defence line at all cost!

In those days, soldiers were dying everyday. I was a coward, and I was scared, so I tried to run away when the troops were in disarray. But I was still caught by the disciplinary patrol.

The day after I was caught, all the deserters were asked to stand in a row in front of the whole regiment and wait for the regiment commander to execute us in person. It was the company commander, who saved us. When he begged the regiment commander to give the deserters another chance, the regiment commander was pointing the gun at his head. Only when he used his own life to guarantee that those deserters would redeem themselves by fighting the insects did the regiment commander let them go.”

As if he was talking to himself, Tian Weidai did not even check if Chu Yunsheng was still listening or not.

“That day, we were sent to the front line to fight the insects in order to redeem ourselves. Everyone lost their minds and clashed with the swarm. In the end, the swarm retreated, and I lived.

It was that night, I was awakened, but it was too late to report my details back to the headquarters. My squad leader jokingly said that I was a lucky bastard, among the whole company, it was just me, who was awakened. He also said that even though I was awakened, I still needed to fight like a man, die with comrades, never ever retreat, not even just one step!

The next day, the swarm came back with more insects, and even more strong push from both the sky and the ground. They were not scared of artillery strikes at all. Our brothers died one after another. In the end, We still couldn’t hold the defence line. The squad leader and the rest of our brothers tied the bombs to themselves, and died with the insects… I was supposed to die with them, but I was scared again. I threw away the bomb… and hid underneath my comrades’ bodies… we said that we were going to be brothers in the next life… We said…”

Tian Weidai’s voice became lower and lower until Chu Yunsheng couldn’t hear it at all. His eyes were dull and blank, and he didn’t even have any reaction, when the cigarette burned his fingers.

When he talked about the soldiers, who blew themselves up with insects, Chu Yunsheng couldn’t help but remember the soldiers he saw at that small village he had been to. How much courage do you need to make that kind of decision?

Chu Yunsheng gradually understood what was torturing this young soldier. The soldier hoped that there was an afterlife, so he could meet his comrades, who were treating him like a family member again. But he was also scared that there was an afterlife. He was scared that his comrades would despise him.

That was why he often shouted, “I’m not a deserter!” during sleep.

In fact, the timid Tian Weidai didn’t tell anyone, including Zhao Shanhe, that he was a deserter. But since every time he would wake up shouting those words, It wasn’t long until everyone figured out that he was a deserter.

The cars were bumping up and down and slowly driving towards Jin Ling city. The drivers had already been changed. The drivers at the first shift were already exhausted, it was time for them to take a short break.

Tian Weidai fell asleep after he vented all the stress. Only Hu Zai (little tiger) was awake. Its ears were twitched from time to time as if it was listening to something. Chu Yunsheng was in a state of trance, and he didn’t know how long he was like this.

Suddenly, he felt that Hu Zai became restless in his arms. Chu Yunsheng was startled and instantly woke up.

Normally, if Hu Zai detected a danger and if it didn’t know where the danger came from, it would act like this. The mysterious wind elemental energy plus the animal’s instinct made Hu Zai’s detection ability very accurate.

“Stop the car!” Chu Yunsheng suddenly shouted. His shout was like a thunder ringing out in the car.

“Stop the car!” Chu Yunsheng nervously stood up. He didn’t care if everyone was sleeping. He shouted once again.

The car was instantly stopped, the two buses that were closely following behind them also stopped. Everyone started to become anxious after they woke up.

“What’s going on?” Huang Renkuan immediately asked.

“Shut the engine! Turn off the lights!” Chu Yunsheng didn’t answer him, instead, he bent over and quickly approached the driver and urged the driver to do what he said.

“What’s happening?” said Zhao Shanhe after he opened the car’s door from outside. He was on the watch on top of the car earlier.

Chu Yunsheng took out the gun, and started to check the bullets. At the same time, he said quietly, “there are monsters nearby!”

“What monster?” said Huang Renkuan. He was very worried.

“I don’t know.” Through the glass windows, Chu Yunsheng was staring into the dark outside the car. Two buses behind them also quickly shut the engines and turned off the lights.

“Which direction?” Li Yue immediately asked.

“I don’t know.” Chu Yunsheng still gave them the same answer because he did not really know where the danger came from. He himself also didn’t feel Yuan Qi’s irregular fluctuations in the area.

“Then, how do you know that there are monsters nearby?”

“Xiao Chu, you are not joking, right?” said Zhao Shanhe and Huang Renkuan. They almost responded at the same time.

Chu Yunsheng ignored their questions and started to control the Yuan Qi inside his body. He was on extremely high-alert, and he was preparing himself for the worst.

Everyone was affected by his strange behavior. They lowered breathing noise, stopped talking, and stared outside through the windows.

After a while, nothing happened.

If Chu YunSheng didn’t know Hu Zai’s instinct was very accurate, he would’ve definitely doubted it as well.

“Mr. Chu, don’t you think that you are being too paranoid?” Li Yue said with a weird tone. He was not happy that Chu Yunsheng had helped Zhao Shanhe solve the food problem. However, he also got a share, so at that time, he couldn’t complain anything about him.

“Yes, it is very scary.” Huang Renkuan nodded his head and was slowly relieved.

“Look, what is that!” Tian Weidai suddenly shouted from the back of the car.

Chu Yunsheng’s speed was very fast. As soon as he heard the noise, in a split second, he rushed to the back of the car.

It was completely dark inside the car, no one could see anything. But everyone was still shocked because they could still feel the sharp wind caused by Chu Yunsheng’s high-speed movement.

There were three green light spots slowly appearing in the dark at the right rear side of the car. They were swaying roughly two meters above the ground, but no one knew what that was.

“There are also some here!” Huang Renkuan’s voice was trembling in the dark.

“Chief Huang and the Witch protect the rear side of the bus, everyone, get ready for the battle.” Zhao Shanhe immediately assigned the task to them.

At the same time, more and more green fluorescent light spots started to appear in the dark. Some of them were high above the ground, some of them stayed very close to the ground, and Chu Yunsheng’s group was completed surrounded by them!

Chu Yunsheng always relied on Hu Zai’s instinct to detect a danger before it approached him. He often had enough time to switch off his light and find somewhere to hide, before red-shelled insects arrived. He then usually just waited until the monsters left.

However, those green fluorescent light monsters seemed to have much stronger detection ability. They had already surrounded them.

At this time, hiding became useless.
