Chapter 228: Chapter 228 Surrender Or Die
It was not the first time for Chu Yunsheng to encounter other dimensions. Take his storage talisman as an example, it was a small pocket dimension, the anti-world those aliens mentioned when he was in Jin Ling city was also another dimension. Moreover, many scientists during the age of light also claimed that the universe itself as a whole was also multidimensional.
“If it was not a dream, then what was it?” Edgar seemed to realise that Chu Yunsheng had felt something, so he immediately asked. However, only him, who always paid attention to Chu Yunsheng’s opinions, could hear Chu Yunsheng’s murmur, all other people did not seem to have heard it at all.
“I don’t know,” Chu Yunsheng shook his head. Only by re-entering the “dream” would he have an opportunity to determine whether it was another dimension or not.
“Why don’t we try to get to sleep one more time?” Ga Zi suggested.
“I think this is the only way, but I don’t want to be trapped inside,” Edgar murmured.
Time slowly passed. Some people also did not like to go back to the dream world, and Tan Ning still has not woken up yet. Chu Yunsheng, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, had also attempted to sleep several times, but he still could not enter the dream world again.
Instead, Qin Qiqying, who had received the proper military training, fell asleep very quickly, and then woke up very soon.
“How is it?” Chu Yunsheng approached her and asked.
“Nothing happened,” Qin Qiying shook her head.
“It seems like we need something to trigger it,” Chu Yunsheng nodded his head and turned around, “Did anyone else go back into the dream?”
“No, no one,” Cheng Daiyou stood up and answered.
Then Chu Yunsheng pulled Edgar off the RV and said, “Tell Jiang Qianqin that we need to go back and leave this place, we need to find other ways to bypass here, something is not right about this place!”
Although the underground granary that was near Yellow Mountain city was not far from them, it was not a place he had to go. His final destination was towards the northwest.
Originally, he thought that he might be able to go northwest through Yellow Mountain city, and he could just take the food from the underground granary on the way. However, it seemed like this option was not viable now.
To their west, the spore forest was spreading along Yangtze River, it covered the entire south-eastern area of the river. so if he could not find other ways to bypass the spore forest, he would have to cross the spore forest by force.
Yellow Mountain city used to be a major city that linked both sides of the river during the age of light, it was also the closest city that Chu Yunsheng could use to bypass the spore forest. However, the city was so bizarre that Chu Yunsheng did not want to take a risk.
When it was finally the next day early morning, Tan Ning and other people still had not woken up, and no matter how other people tried to get into the dream again, they still could not succeed.
Without having other choices, Chu Yunsheng urged Edgar to tell Jiang Qianqin once again to turn the vehicles around and take the original route back.
However, just when they were about to pass the thin mist, something unexpected happened!
One student in the first bus at the front shouted, “Sister Jiang… something isn’t right… people are dying!”
Chu Yunsheng’s heart instantly sank.
“What happened?” Jiang Qianqin was walking next to the first bus, she seemed to be calm at the moment.
“It’s Zhou Yun, he hasn’t woken up since last night. When we just woke up, we noticed that his mouth was filled with foam. Now it seems like he is having difficulty breathing, his pulse also stop… stop… stop…” the girl next to the window fainted before she could finish the sentence.
Then many other students also started to faint one by one.
Jiang Qianqin also felt like her soul was seized by an invisible hand and it started to pull her soul out of her body as she walked deeper into the mist. She immediately turned around and shouted, “Don’t go back. Everyone! Stay away from the mist!”
At the same time, she opened the bus’s door while enduring the pain, quickly pushed away the driver who had already fallen unconscious then drove the bus backwards.
When they returned to their camping area, most of the students who had fainted earlier, woke up one by one. Only one student whose name was Zhou Yun, no longer had breath.
Chu Yunsheng’s heart sank even deeper. Although Jiang Qianqin didn’t say anything to Edgar, he knew that it was his decision that killed that student.
“This is bullshit!” Chu Yunsheng cursed silently, he didn’t believe that he couldn’t leave here, he could even break out from the maze in the fog city, so there was no way he would be trapped here.
While all the students were getting off the bus, and everyone was gathering together discussing the death of that student in panic, Chu Yunsheng wrapped himself in the cotton clothes and left the crowd. He needed to try it one more time.
However, just when he got into the mist, he started to have an acute headache, and as if all the bones inside his body were broken apart, he didn’t have any strength to support him to walk deeper into the mist. Although he didn’t pass out like other students did, probably because there was the ancient book protecting him, there was a strange force pulling him back, and as he walked deeper into the mist, the force got stronger.
Chu Yunsheng activated the armour immediately and charged out once again. However, he didn’t get far before he was thrown out of the mist and went back to the place where he started.
“Mr. Lennon, are you okay?” Edgar quickly approached Chu Yunsheng, and asked nervously. He was more concerned about if Chu Yunsheng was going to abandon him than if Chu Yunsheng was injured. That was why he secretly followed Chu Yunsheng earlier.
“I’m okay,” Chu Yunsheng deactivated the armour and stood up slowly. “We can’t get out now, let’s get back and find other solutions!”
“Since we can’t get out now. Shall we go to Yellow Mountain city, there might be some survivors there. We might be able to get some information from them?” Edgar suggested.
Chu Yunsheng thought for a second. Edgar was right, since there was no way to break out of the mist by force, why not ask the local people? They might be able to provide some valuable information.
However, before they set off again, Chu Yunsheng was alerted by the sound of motorbike engines.
“Someone is coming, get ready!” Chu Yunsheng immediately told Edgar who still was not aware of the situation.
Soon, around 20 motorbikes kicked up the snow from the ground, appearing in everyone’s sight, along with a noisy engine sound.
The group of motorbikes was in the triangular formation and everyone on top of the bike dressed in red. They had long broadswords hanging on their waists and guns on their backs.
The person at the front of the formation was probably their leader. He lifted up the front of the motorbike and charged straight towards the students.
Once they got near the students, the first person immediately turned the bike sideways to stop the bike. No one knew If he did it on purpose or not, all the snow on the ground was instantly kicked up and flew towards the students.
The rest of the bikes were then spread out to form a semi-circle formation to surround the students.
“All Skywalkers, stand in front of the group! Do it now!” the leader commanded while drawing the long broadsword. The sword was covered with fire once it was drawn out completely. Then he waved his sword to order his man, “take the rest of the people back to the Castle of Raging Fire, whoever resisted, Kill!”
Jiang Qianqin knitted her brows and looked at him coldly. But she didn’t move.
The sudden appearance of a group of fully armed strangers caused a commotion in the student’s group. No one knew what was going on, and everyone was talking to each other in panic.
The leader of the strangers sneered, he pointed the sword at Jiang Qianqin and said coldly, “You are a Skywalker?”
Jiang Qianqin nodded her head, at the same time, she started to use her hand to gather ice energy in secret. From the fire energy movement on that broadsword, she could tell that this man was much more powerful than her. However, she did not panic, because she still had the Doctor, who was just right behind her.
“Skywalker will be given preferential treatment! We will provide food, weapons, a safe place to live, and everything you need!” the leader took out a pack of bread and then raised it up high while talking.
However, at the same time, he also seemed to worry about something. As he quickly took back the bread, he hurriedly said, “surrender or die, you choose!”
That leader didn’t know that since he appeared, there were two roaring flame guns pointing at him. One was held by Edgar who was standing in front of RV, the other one was held by Chu Yunsheng who was on the roof of the RV and covered by the RV’s cover.
“What about them?” Jiang Qianqin pointed at the students behind her and asked.
That leader glanced over the crowd and said with disdain, “just a bunch of ordinary people, only the awakened human beings can be considered as real human beings. They will live as slaves to serve the Castle Of Raging Fire!”
“I don’t think we will be joining you!” Jiang Qianqin said coldly and instantly cast out ice energy, within a split second, an ice wall was raised from the ground between the motorbikes and the students.
“Kill them all!” that leader also gave the order without any hesitation.
“Boom! Boom! Boom…”
Chu Yunsheng always liked to make a pre-emptive move during the fight, so when Jiang Qianqin raised the ice wall, he immediately started to fire the energy bullets before the leader of the stranger’s group lifted the sword.
One shot after another, he did not want to give that leader a break.
Normally, even if that leader was as powerful as a Rank-3 dark warrior, Chu Yunsheng believed that his Yuan Qi bullet would still be able to injure that man.
But the strange thing was, that leader could use the long broadsword to stop his Yuan Qi bullets, and it did not seem to be difficult for him to stop the energy bullets at all.
‘It must be that broadsword!’ Chu Yunsheng frowned.
Just when he was thinking about whether he should take the risk of exposing himself to use Qian Bi sword to kill that leader, two people jumped out from the back of that leader. Both of them were hacking the fiery swords down and it instantly became a blazing fiery cross, smashing into the ice wall.
At the same time, another two people jumped over the ice wall and headed straight toward the RV’s roof, with those two people’s speed, Jiang Qianqin, and other skywalkers could not stop them at all.
Those people were truly powerful. They were not like Ren Sanbao and his men at all. No wonder why they were so domineering earlier on. Chu Yunsheng thought.
Chu Yunsheng immediately took out a monster seal talisman. He wanted to summon a type two green-shelled insect to assist him, no matter what happened, at least, at the moment, he still did not want to expose his sword yet.
However, the situation suddenly changed again.
The area they were in suddenly started to snow heavily, at the same time, when the snow appeared, Chu Yunsheng heard a clatter of horse’s hoofs and horse neighs.
Then, in the next second, many crystal-clear ice arrows, pierced through the snowstorm appearing in everyone’s sights while making the sharp ear-piercing sounds…
As the ice arrows stabbed into the ice wall, a sturdy white horse broke out of the snowstorm. On top of the white horse, there was a person whose face was covered with white veils. The person was also dressed in white clothes and a white cloak. However, the person’s dress was so thin that it was flying around in the snow storm.
The first white horse was reared up by the rider and stopped at the place not far away from Chu Yunsheng’s RV, then, many horses appeared one by one in the snowstorm, on top of every horse, there was a person who dressed in white clothes and a white cloak, and all their faces were covered with white veils…
Two people who were originally approaching the RV immediately cast out their fire abilities while they were still in the air. With the help of recoil, they both did backflips in the air and returned to their bikes.
“Fuck! Brothers, let’s go, the bitches from the Castle of Snowstorm are here!” the leader who was originally suppressed by Chu Yunsheng suddenly shouted out loud. With the help of the other two people, they immediately turned the motorbike around and drove away.
