"What a powerful spear technique!"
After activating [Shadow Steps], Yue Zhong's speed was like a ghost. Even though he was repeatedly forced back by the black clothed man's exquisite spear technique, Yue Zhong was still able to close in on the black clothed man at an extremely high speed. His blade was as fast as a meteor as it chopped towards the black clothed man.
If it was a competition of spear techniques, Yue Zhong admitted that he was not the black clothed man's opponent. Even though he had worked hard to train his spear techniques, the training time was still too short.
The black clothed man also abandoned his spear the moment Yue Zhong closed in on him. He pulled out the long sword at his waist, and drew a mysterious trajectory to point at Yue Zhong's blade. Yue Zhong's blade was subtly deflected to the side.
Yue Zhong quickly pulled out his blade, and with each blade faster than the last, he chopped towards the black clothed man. With his speed far exceeding that of an ordinary person, it was as if a storm was raining down on the black clothed man.
The black clothed man's speed was far inferior to Yue Zhong's, but his sword technique was exquisite. A ball of sword light covered his entire body, and he was barely able to block all of Yue Zhong's attacks.
Just as the two were fighting, from the shadows behind the black clothed man, a sharp bone spike suddenly burst out, and pierced towards the black clothed man.
The black clothed man's pupils shrank, and his sword pointed at the bone spike. His body slightly twisted, and he avoided the bone spike that could have easily pierced through him.
Yue Zhong took the opportunity to heavily kick the black clothed man's waist, and the difficult black clothed man was kicked several meters away.
Countless sharp bone spikes shot out from a dark corner, and pierced towards the black clothed man.
The black clothed man spat out a mouthful of blood, and his speed suddenly increased by three times. Like an arrow leaving the bow, he dodged the countless sharp bone spikes, and disappeared into the night in a few flashes.
Yue Zhong's eyes flashed a few times, and he also disappeared into the night.
The black-clothed man forcefully endured his injuries. Taking advantage of the cover of the night, he continuously moved through the streets and alleys in the darkness. Finally, he arrived at a small alley and entered an inconspicuous room.
"Brother Cheng Yu, what happened to you?"
"Brother Cheng Yu, are you injured?"
A candle was lit in the middle of the room. Under the weak candlelight, one could see that there were nine children under the age of 13 squeezed in the small room that was less than 30 square meters.
As soon as the man in black entered the room, the children surrounded him and asked worriedly.
"I'm fine!" The black-robed man, Cheng Yu, took off his mask, revealing a delicate and pale face. He covered his mouth and coughed, coughing out a large mouthful of blood. Traces of blood flowed out from his hand.
Seeing that Cheng Yu was injured, the nine children panicked and rummaged through the room, trying to find some medicine. After the apocalypse, medicine and food were both scarce resources. In this room, there were only a few band-aids and a bottle of painkillers.
Right at this time, a White Bone Axe chopped down heavily on the door, smashing it into smithereens. Yue Zhong walked in with large strides.
"Child?" When Yue Zhong saw the 9 children in the room, he was extremely surprised, and his hatred towards Cheng Yu for trying to assassinate him lessened.
After the apocalypse, with the passage of time, human nature began to slowly deteriorate. For a piece of bread, women would sell their bodies. For a steamed bun, men would even kill. Rape and murder were common things in this post-apocalyptic world. In order to fill their stomachs, some people would even resort to cannibalism.
In this world where order had collapsed and morality had fallen, to be able to protect these children, Cheng Yu still retained a trace of humanity.
Looking at Yue Zhong, Cheng Yu's pupils shrank and said: "Don't hurt them, I'll go with you!"
Before the apocalypse, Cheng Yu was a top assassin. He was proficient in all kinds of killing techniques, and had exquisite swordsmanship. Before the apocalypse, he was carrying out a mission in Long Hai City. After the apocalypse, he retreated to Long Hai City with the rest of the army. Although Cheng Yu's skills were extraordinary, his luck was not good. When he obtained the novice staff, he just happened to have a gun and a sword in his hands. The seemingly cumbersome novice staff was thrown away by him at the first moment. After all, compared to a wooden staff, he was more accustomed to using a gun and sword that had undergone strict training. This caused him to miss the best opportunity to strengthen.
By the time the secret of strengthening was discovered, Cheng Yu had already retreated to a safe base. Moreover, all kinds of God and Devil System equipment were strictly controlled by the major powers. With great difficulty, he carefully assassinated an evolver who possessed an Imitation Tang Sword. Relying on his outstanding skills, he went out of the city to kill some zombies, and strengthened himself to level 8. But at this time, it was very difficult to kill ordinary zombies to drop skill books. Without tyrannical skills, he could not become a top evolver.
Even if Cheng Yu was at his peak, he was not Yue Zhong's opponent. Now that he was seriously injured, he was even less of a match for Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong looked at Cheng Yu, and then looked at a 13 year old boy. He coldly said: "Who asked you to assassinate me?"
Cheng Yu struggled for a moment, and then said the employer's background: "Ice King Zhang Yun!"
The 9 orphans in the room were far more important to Cheng Yu than the assassin's code of conduct.
"It's him again!" Yue Zhong's eyes flashed with killing intent. The Ice King had already tried to assassinate him twice. In his heart, Ice King Zhang Yun was already determined to kill him.
Yue Zhong asked: "How much did he pay you?"
Cheng Yu said, "A ton of rations!"
Before the apocalypse, every time Cheng Yu made a move, the price would be 100,000 USD. However, after the apocalypse, a ton of food was enough to make a top assassin of the previous world work for it.
Yue Zhong looked at Cheng Yu and said: "I am the leader of Stone Horse Village, Yue Zhong. Cheng Yu, work for me. As long as you work for me, they will be well taken care of. They could study with their peers in spacious and bright classrooms, and they didn't have to worry about food or clothing every day. As long as you work hard, it won't be a problem for them to have bread and milk every day. "
Cheng Yu possessed top-notch combat capabilities, if Yue Zhong's enhancements were removed, he would not be able to match Cheng Yu. Yue Zhong was not a match for this assassin, he was just unlucky. As long as Yue Zhong was willing to nurture him, he would definitely become a capable general in the future.
Cheng Yu looked at Yue Zhong and said in a deep voice, "Captain Yue, as long as you treat them well, they will be willing to help you. I'll sell my life to you. "
At this moment, he was the meat on the chopping block. Cheng Yu wanted these children to be able to live healthily, so he chose to rely on Yue Zhong. Everyone has their own important things. These orphans were born as orphans. Cheng Yu's most important treasures were also his spiritual sustenance.
After the apocalypse, many people committed suicide because they were in despair of this cruel world. They no longer had faith, and their spiritual pillars collapsed. If they had a spiritual pillar and faith, no matter how cruel, humans would struggle to live.
