"What!" Commander Du blurted out. It took him more than three hours to collect more than thirty red-shelled insects' bodies, how could they suddenly disappear?
The sentry lowered his voice and said worriedly, "I saw Mr. Chu go there, after he came out, those bodies disappeared!"
Commander Du suddenly raised his head and looked at Chu Yunsheng, who had already walked past them and was walking towards the professors' meeting room. He was shocked. 'How did he do it? Did he rely on the legendary monster's body to increase his power? ' Thinking about the disgusting monster's slimy body, Commander Du felt his stomach cramping.
But he quickly adjusted his emotions and facial expression. No matter if Chu Yunsheng was a human or a monster, as long as he was on his side, then he was his ally. He said to the sentry sternly, "don't tell anyone about this, it is the regiment's top secret. From now on, you will be responsible for guarding the back of the building. Don't worry about Mr. Chu, let him do whatever he wants!"
"Yes, sir!" the sentry gritted his teeth and showed a determined look.
"Go!" Commander Du waved his hand helplessly. He still needed to explain what happened to Chu Yunsheng to the eight awakened warriors.
Chu Yunsheng ignored their questions, which made those newly awakened warriors very angry. They all expressed that they could not cooperate with him, and some of them even asked to have a competition with Chu Yunsheng!
"Competition!?" A voice suddenly came from the door. It was Yao Xiang. He was sent by Commander Du to hunt some red-eyed monsters with another group of awakened warriors. When he just came back, he heard that people in the hall were questioning Chu Yunsheng's ability.
Yao Xiang was always honest, so he said straightforwardly, "you want to have a competition? Brother Chu doesn't care about this, probably because he doesn't want to hurt you. I have never seen anyone survive his sword, no matter if it was a monster or a human! … "
The old man frowned and interrupted him, "young man, don't brag too much! Sword? We have eight people, sixteen pairs of eyes, but we have never seen him use a single piece of iron! "
Yao Xiang had been with Chu Yunsheng for quite some time, he knew about Chu Yunsheng's magical collection ability, but he would not reveal Chu Yunsheng's secret just because of that. He curled his lips and continued, "I just want to remind you, believe it or not, I never lie! Not to mention one person, even if all eight of you come at me together, I dare to bet my own head that he will definitely be the one left alive in the end! "
Before his voice fell, a captain with one bar and three stars behind him stood up and said in a deep voice, "Commander, I believe in Yao Xiang, so I believe in Mr. Chu's ability!"
Commander Du nodded slightly.
The awakened warriors that followed behind him all stood on the officer's side and agreed with him.
The old man snorted, but he didn't know what to say. After all, there were many people on the other side, and they were very confident. If he continued to say it, it would become them questioning the military, not Chu Yunsheng!
At this time, Chu Yunsheng was sitting in a corner of the conference room, silently smoking a cigarette. The scientists' deductions were very complicated, and without the assistance of computers, the progress of the work was very slow. He still had to wait for a while before he could get the new tunnel map after the fog wall was transformed.
The conference room was lit with candles that the military collected from other places. Under this kind of flickering candlelight, the professors seemed to be very busy and tired. Some of them couldn't stand it anymore, so they were lying on the "beds" that were made from chairs on the side. They were all trying their best.
Chu Yunsheng was affected by the excitement. He yawned, put out the cigarette butt, and tried his best to focus on absorbing Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi. Since the last time he understood the basic diagram, he focused on the process of absorbing Yuan Qi, carefully observing the direction, state, strength, fluctuation, and the wonderful feeling of combining Yuan Qi with his body.
This was a very exhausting thing. After just more than an hour, Chu Yunsheng couldn't hold on anymore. He seemed to have understood something, but when he thought about it carefully, he found that everything was chaotic. There was nothing, he had no clue. There were too many laws and principles that he didn't know!
During the age of light, he had seen a lot of novels on TV. The more they practiced, the more energetic they became. Not to mention that they could replace sleep with cultivation, even their cultivation level would increase by leaps and bounds, like cabbages and watermelons.
Only now did he realize how difficult it was. If it was just controlling his body to absorb Yuan Qi, it would still be fine. But he had already become numb from it. He could still practice for six hours at a time! Just now, when his entire mind was focused on observing, memorizing, exploring, and understanding the process, and using his heart to think about the details of every step, he couldn't even hold on for an hour and a half. His head started to explode with pain!
When Chu Yunsheng opened his eyes, he was startled. Professor Sun was sitting in front of him, looking at him with a smile on his face. His eyes were filled with passion, which made Chu Yunsheng shudder!
"What's the matter?" Chu Yunsheng calmed himself down and forcibly woke up from the state of cultivation.
Professor Sun waved his hand and said, "nothing, I'm just a little curious. Oh right, do you dare to look at dead people?"
Chu Yunsheng was confused when he heard the professor's random words. He had seen too many dead people. From Shen Cheng city to here, which road wasn't covered with human bodies?
Seeing that he didn't respond, professor Sun explained in a low voice, "not ordinary dead people, they are dissected bodies. They are the bodies of Gan Ziqiang and the others that you killed the other day!"
Chu Yunsheng was so shocked that he immediately jumped up from the chair. His eyes suddenly became vigilant and cold. He even wanted to activate the combat armor in the blink of an eye!
He always had a good impression of the old man Sun. Not only because the old man didn't care about the past, but also because he was grateful to the soldiers who protected him. Also, the old man repeatedly told him that the scientists were not like what Chu Yunsheng thought, they did not dissect awakened human beings, which made Chu Yunsheng feel relieved.
But now professor Sun suddenly came to him and told him that they had dissected the bodies of Gan Ziqiang and the others. Although Gan Ziqiang was Chu Yunsheng's enemy, they were both awakened warriors. If the scientists started dissecting Gan Ziqiang today, then tomorrow, they might start dissecting other awakened warriors, or even him.
Chu Yunsheng thought that he was too careless. He didn't know if it was because he had been with these people for a long time, but he always felt that these scientists were kind and friendly, so he gradually let his guard down. In a situation where there was no one around him that he could trust, he didn't dare to practice cultivation at all. If those scientists tried to study him, he might have already died.
Seeing his face changed, professor Sun quickly gestured at him and said, "Xiao Chu, don't be nervous, listen to me …"
Chu Yunsheng calmed himself down. He knew that he was thinking too much, and he was even a bit mentally fragile. Now, whether it was Commander Du or those scientists, they all needed him to help them get out of danger.
But what kind of world was this!?
He had seen two people trying to escape from an insect. One of them tricked the other person to help him, and then he took the opportunity to break the other person's leg. Then he left the person with the broken leg to slow down the insect behind him, and then he could run away!
He had seen a kind little girl trying to help a starving person. She gave some of her food to that person, but she was stabbed to death by that person, and all of her food was taken away by that person!
He had seen a group of awakened warriors struggling to fight. When the red-eyed monsters were coming at them from all directions, some of them did not hesitate to pull their teammates to stop the monsters from coming at them!
He had seen vehicles that could not climb up the slope because they were too heavy. When the monsters were coming at them from behind, they started to shoot each other, and the dead people were thrown out of the vehicle!
He had seen people using half a piece of bread to lure other human beings to walk into the trap. Just like boss Jiang, they caught them and made them into human bombs to kill those meat worms!
…
He had seen too many things like this. Every time he saw something like this, it left a deep fear in his heart. In the age of light, he was just an ordinary citizen, and his life was ordinary. After entering the dark age, he had to bear one tragedy after another with the mentality of an ordinary citizen. Even though he had the protection of the ancient book, it still made him more and more sensitive, more and more vigilant, and more and more vulnerable.
Sometimes, people were far more terrifying than monsters!
