Ding Yan climbed up the ridge and pointed at a place not far away. There were many men and women, young and old, crawling on the cold ground, carefully digging out the frozen earthworms and even voles. Every time they caught one, they would quickly stuff it into their mouth or hide it in their waists.
He raised his voice and said, "the world has changed, the rules have changed, the order has also changed, the world is full of insects, monsters, what can we do? If we want to live, we have to become stronger, we have to become like them! "
Everyone knew this, so Chu Yunsheng didn't say anything.
Ding Yan turned around and smiled, "you should still remember the things we saw in the black bread factory. Now it is not just insects anymore. God knows what else is in front of us. Xiao Yao and I just want to keep our lives, we want to become stronger, we want to survive. There are more and more awakened humans, and we are lucky to be in the front. I can guarantee that the world will belong to awakened warriors in the future. No matter how powerful the military is, they will not be able to stop this fact, unless there is an incredible breakthrough in technology. "
Then Chu Yunsheng said calmly, "maybe you are right, but this is still not the reason why you are going to help me."
Ding Yan jumped down from the ridge and said solemnly, "you are the strangest and most special awakened one I have ever seen. Before today, you have never shown any ice or fire ability. You can kill red-shelled insects with just a sword, and your armor can even block the long-faced man's fatal attack.
But these are not important, what is important is that today, you can use the gun to unleash the power of dark energy, just like me!
Also, your friend Yu Xiaohai, in the battle with the tentacle monster, he was the only one who got the least injury, and his strength was obviously not that strong. Don't you think it is strange? Even the flying insects could not tear him apart! "
Chu Yunsheng immediately became vigilant and looked at him coldly, "you have been observing us?"
Ding Yan said calmly, "as long as someone pays a little attention, they will notice it, it is not strange. I've told you about the shock you gave us. To me, this shock wasn't only because of your powerful attack power, but also because you were able to recover your energy so quickly after killing a tentacle monster. This is something I've never seen before! "
Chu Yunsheng didn't expect that Ding Yan would be able to discover so many things. But since he had decided to join the escort team, he knew that some people would notice that he was different, so he didn't really care.
Ding Yan continued, "Yao and I don't want to know your secrets. Every hunter has their own secrets, and no one wants others to know too much about them. We just want to cooperate with you. I will be the mole, and you just need to provide us with some life-saving things like Yu Xiaohai."
Chu Yunsheng wanted to find a mole. This way, it would be much easier for him to track them. Especially when he encountered the insects, he would not lose his target because he had to fight them.
However, he was very wary of Ding Yan. If it was Yao Xiang, he might believe it, but he always felt that Ding Yan was not a trustworthy person.
Ding Yan said with a self-deprecating smile, "Brother Chu, I know you don't trust me, but I have no choice. I can't let Yao Xiang be a spy. He is a training maniac, and he is an honest man. If he goes, he will be discovered soon, and he will lose his life. By the way, brother Chu, do you think I need to lie to you? "
Chu Yunsheng was dazed for a second, then he thought about it. He really did not need to lie to himself. Ding Yan could just go to the military and set up a trap for him. There was no need for him to do this, and there was also no need for him to let Yao Xiang stay with him.
After thinking it through, Chu Yunsheng didn't say anything. Sealing some energy shield talismans wouldn't consume too much Yuan Qi, and he could even hide his own life information in those talismans. When the time came, he could instantly destroy the talismans on them.
However, Chu Yunsheng didn't plan to give Ding Yan a fire talisman that could increase the power of his gun right now. He still didn't trust Ding Yan enough.
Chu Yunsheng smiled and said, "then I hope we can cooperate well!"
Ding Yan patted Yao Xiang's shoulder and nodded, "I hope the three of us can reach Jin Ling city alive!"
Yao Xiang didn't say anything. It seemed like he trusted Ding Yan very much. Chu Yunsheng didn't want to ask about their past, but he knew that it wouldn't be easy.
After Chu Yunsheng and Ding Yan finished their discussion, Yao Xiang said happily, "brother Chu, you are really amazing! Do you know, I have been dreaming to reach that level!"
Chu Yunsheng shook his head and sat back down on the ridge with the other two people. He said, "since we are cooperating, I can provide you with an energy shield that is similar to the one used by red-shelled insects. But there is a time limit, and the strength of the shield is proportional to your cultivation level. But it can at least defend against two red-shelled insects' attacks at the same time. If it is three red-shelled insects, it will be dangerous."
Even Ding Yan, who had been trying to guess Chu Yunsheng's ability, was shocked when he heard Chu Yunsheng's words. So far, he had never heard of a human being who could make this kind of energy shield. Most people's defense was based on ice and fire elemental energy. Generally, ice elemental energy warriors had higher defense, while fire elemental energy warriors had higher attack power.
Chu Yunsheng didn't care about their surprise. Time was running out, so he continued, "now you all know that I have to kill the long-faced man to avenge my brother. But the long-faced man's ability is very strong, I won't be able to kill him with sneak attacks. He has a lot of people around him. If I want to kill him, I need to get rid of them first!"
Ding Yan fiddled with the gun and said, "how are you going to get rid of them?"
Chu Yunsheng snorted and said, "Commander Du will soon gather all the elite forces and leave the group. They will encounter countless monsters hundreds of kilometers from here to Jin Ling city, there will be many casualties. When they are almost exhausted, I will ambush their team members while they are fighting. I will make them lose their defense or hinder their movement, which will indirectly cause them to be killed by the monsters!"
Ding Yan nodded and said, "this is a good idea. But we need to choose a good place to assassinate them. We can't do it when they are too close to Jin Ling city, and we can't do it too early. We need to know how many casualties they have. At that time, I will find a way to inform you, and you can decide the time to do it according to your strength."
Chu Yunsheng smiled. It was indeed much more convenient to have a mole. In order to save time, Chu Yunsheng took out some canned food and bread and let Ding Yan and Yao Xiang eat first. Then he quickly made an energy shield talisman and sealed it on their bodies. Just like what Ding Yan said, every awakened person had their own secrets.
"I need a crossbow or a bow! Do you know if there is an archery club in Kun city? "Chu Yunsheng asked.
Ding Yan thought for a second, but he still shook his head and said, "I know many clubs in Kun city, but I have never heard of archery clubs. If you really need one, you and Yao Xiang can sneak into the city, there should be some local people who didn't manage to escape, you can ask them. Also, I will leave some marks along the way, so you don't have to worry about getting lost."
Chu Yunsheng sighed, "that's the only thing we can do now. It's getting late, let's move."
Ding Yan patted the dirt off his clothes and said, "I will go to Commander Du's place first. You guys just follow behind me. Be careful, don't get too close."
Looking at Ding Yan disappearing in the crowd, Chu Yunsheng suddenly thought, was it really worth it for Ding Yan to take the risk of being a mole just to get an energy shield talisman?
Maybe Ding Yan was confident that it was not a big deal, or maybe Ding Yan wanted to get more things from him in the future.
No one could be sure.
