Chapter 125: Chapter 125 The Insects’ Queen
The insects went completely crazy. Chu Yunsheng had never seen them act like this before! It seemed like they were agitated by something.
There was a trace of dim light slowly appearing in the sky. With the help of the light, they could see many insects’ figures storming towards the depot from the place as far as the eyes could see.
Regardless of whether the “mirror wall” was the space overlapping point as the ancient book mentioned or not, this place was extremely dangerous at this moment.
Chu Yunsheng jumped off the truck and fired a few shots to kill the insects that had rushed into the depot. The ground was already covered with green liquid.
Lu Yu, Yao Xiang closely followed behind him. Those two people really lived up to their names. Yao Xiang’s Fire Ring Cut seemed to have become more powerful. He opened his hand with five fingers tightly closed, and then quickly swung the arm horizontally. A crescent-shaped fire shock wave instantly burst out from his hand and shot towards the swarm. Many insects were instantly knocked over.
Lu Yu was closely following behind. A gust of whirlwind twirled from the bottom of his feet, and became bigger and bigger until it wrapped him around entirely. As soon as Yao Xiang threw his fire attack, Lu Yu immediately waved his hand, the violent whirlwind instantly moved towards Yao Xiang’s fire attack. The wind increased the power of the fire attack and doubled its size!
The fire whirlwind quickly swept through the ground and killed many insects. Within just a few seconds, it made a big gap in the swarm.
While the first fire whirlwind was moving around killing many red-shelled insects, the second whirlwind was cast out. Different to the first one, the second whirlwind brought many sharp ice pieces and froze all the injured red-shelled insects into ice cubes.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng thought whether he should get an automatic rifle and enchanted it with the fire element, It might be faster to kill the red-shelled insects that way than using a sword.
Shortly after three people began their attack, Shen Shaoze and Zhu Lingdie’s men also arrived. With the help of everyone, they made a bloody way out of the gate.
The rest of Rank-1 and Rank-2 dark warriors were escorting the trucks closely behind them.
Although there were many insects, the more insects Chu Yunsheng killed, the more strange he felt. Those insects did not seem to want to fight them to death, especially those monsters that got behind them. Not only did they not chase them, but they also formed a thick wall to prevent them from going back!
It seemed like the “mirror” was very important to them. It was so important that they had to secure the area.
Chu Yunsheng reloaded a clip. The insects at the front were less crowded. If they continued like this, they would be able to break out of the place soon!
Luckily, the green-shelled insects that were wheeling in the sky above the granary depots did not join the fight, the golden-shelled insects below the ground also did not seem to be interested in them.
Less than half an hour, they were able to “breakout” the encirclement.
Especially, in the end, it was more like they were expelled from the depot.
“Look at that,” said Ding Yan who was on top of a truck that was quickly climbing up a hill. He passed binoculars to Chu Yunsheng and pointed at the granary depot that was still on fire
Chu Yunsheng took over the binoculars and stood up. What he saw instantly sent a chill down to his spine.
A long giant light red-coloured worm was trying to crawl out from the “Mirror”. Because of its huge body, It seemed like it was having difficulties to move out. Despite that, it was still slowly moving out a bit by bit.
All other insects around it were screeching anxiously, but not a single one dared to approach this long giant worm.
“Their queen?” Chu Yunsheng was surprised. He had never seen this kind of monster before. Even professor Sun, who worked with the military, had not mentioned this kind of monster before.
“It looks like it is very important to all the insects. Otherwise, we won’t be able to get out so easily,” said Ding Yan.
Chu Yunsheng nodded his head. No wonder the golden-shelled insects did not dig their way into the granary depot, probably, they were scared that they would injure this shell-less monster.
If it was really their queen, it meant that those monsters were planning to colonize the earth?
Chu Yunsheng started to shake uncontrollably.
The trucks had climbed over the hill and quickly left the place. Once that monster got out of the mirror, the insects would probably be at ease. At that time, they probably would start to chase them. So they could not afford to slow down.
“This is Lady Zhu, Zhu Lingdie, from the northern district, a true heroine.” Ding Yan briefly introduced and also praised her a little bit.
When they escaped from the swarm, Zhu Lingdie intentionally approached Chu Yunsheng’s truck.
“Brother, how can I address you.” Zhu Lingdie’s lips rose in a tender half-smile.
“Chu Yunsheng,” Chu Yunsheng kept his reply short. When he was discussing Jin Ling city’s situation with Ding Yan, this woman came out of nowhere.
Although Zhu Lingdie was pretty, it had nothing to do with him. The only thing that Chu Yunsheng was curious about was that it seemed like the chaotic world did not have much effect on her. Everyone else looked like a mess, but she still looked very clean. If it wasn’t for the fact that they just had a fight, she would not look like a woman from the apocalyptic world at all.
“Okay then, brother Chu, please look after us if you can in the future.” Zhu Lingdie glanced at Chu Yunsheng’s Rank-2 badge in secret and thought, ‘This man must be in Rank-3 Yi-class or above!’
Chu Yunsheng smiled, he didn’t say anything. He wouldn’t easily promise anything, because he did not think that he had the ability to do so. So he kept silent.
“The 13th master, do you have any plan when we get back to Jin Ling city ” Zhu Lingdie did not feel embarrassed at all, she seemed to be quite experienced in this kind of awkward silence.
After they escaped from the swarm, she had realized how naive of her to think that she could recruit those people. Even a blind person could tell that the wind master, the fire master, and Ding Yan were now working together with this man. But she still needed to find out if they really plan to form a gang or not. If that was the case, she would need to prepare for the changes in advance.
“It’s a chaotic world, anything can happen, it is too early to talk about a plan, we will see when we get back to Jin Ling city.” Ding Yan smiled and replied ambiguously.
“My bad, but I think we still have many opportunities to work together in the future.” she suddenly said with a stern face. She took over the type I dark energy gun from her men and looked at Chu Yunsheng, “I don’t know if brother Chu knows about this type of gun. GRD made less than 30 of them, it is very rare. I have received a secret information telling me that recently GRD is planning to build a machine that allows them to extract some kind of substances from the monster’s body. Those substances are the key material for the bullets and the gun. Once they are successful, you can imagine that whoever has more monsters’ bodies, will have more weapons and food.
Also, GRD’s Defensive Armour Casting research project has also reached the final stage. The main material is also the shell. I am currently wearing one. However, what I have is a failed prototype.” She zipped down her down jacket to reveal a dark red armour she was wearing and said frankly, “GCH has already secretly requested the military to collect all the bodies. This is the top secret. I am taking the risk to tell you this information because I hope that we can work together. ”
However, Zhu Lingdie knew that she was not the only one who knew this secret. There were many senior officials in GRD and GCH knew about it as well. Because of all kinds of reasons, they more or less told their families and friends some information about this secret. Her family also did the same thing. Her family hoped that she could use this information to expand her gang and became even more powerful.
Although Zhu Lingdie’s gang was slightly better than other small gangs. However, she still did not have the ability to organize a large scale activity outside the city. That was why she needed help from the 13th master.
“Let’s wait until we get back to Jin Ling city,” Chu Yunsheng did not answer her straight away.
Zhu Lingdie’s information surprised Chu Yunsheng a little bit. But he was not surprised about the armour, Even the urban management officer in the fog city also knew how to use the shell as a shield, let alone the GRD of Jin Ling city. There was no way they couldn’t think of that. But Chu Yunsheng was still curious about how they achieved the casting process.
What surprised him was the type I dark energy gun, he just heard from Ding Yan that it was similar to the enchanted gun he had, but it was less powerful. However, the enchanted gun Chu Yunsheng had could only be used by fire elemental dark warriors. But the type I energy guns could be used by anyone. Of course, if dark warriors used the type I energy guns, it would be even more powerful.
He was amazed by those researchers’ intelligence. Within this short amount of time, they were able to invent a new type of weapon. Although the ancient book also has a method to make a type of weapon that allows anyone to use it, it is required to have a Yuan Qi energy core as an energy supplement.
The same thing applied to the type I dark energy guns, the energy within the gun could be consumed over time. They were required to be recharged within a certain period of time. The bullets they used also required a certain amount of dark matter. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have any effect.
But Chu Yunsheng was still happy to hear that humans now have weapons to counter-attack the insects.
If it were not for the fact that that he was afraid to lose the ancient book, he would not refuse to help GRD to develop even more powerful weapons.
