Chapter 621: Chapter 621 unexpected situation.
Translator: Doggotranslation Editor: Doggotranslation
It was indeed a shitty situation for him.
The date on his watch indicated that it was fifteen days later, that was to say, he had spent fifteen days in the zero-dimensional space!
He was sure that he had only spent one day in the zero-dimensional space. He had many experiences in entering the zero-dimensional space, so he believed that his estimation was correct. Although the time in the zero-dimensional space couldn’t be accurately calculated, even if the time perception in the zero-dimensional space wasn’t exactly the same as the outside world, the difference wouldn’t be that big.
Previously, when he used the strange seed inside the gigantic tree to enter the zero-dimensional space, it would cause his consciousness to black out for a period of time, and during this period of time, he would not be able to estimate time accurately. It was the main reason why there was time confusion when he came out last time.
But this time was different. It was a direct entry, and there was no blackout period, so the problem should not be related to what happened inside his zero-dimensional space. It must be related to the strange place he arrived after he “crawled out” the zero-dimensional space from the nerve-like line!
According to the time dilation principle, although Chu Yunsheng didn’t know exactly where it was, his consciousness was very likely to be moving at high speed, and he, who used to be an engineer, now thought about it again, those twisted and distorted lines that made him feel dizzy, looked like a very powerful gravitational field.
In terms of the heavenly southern gate, he didn’t believe it at all. Just like the appellations such as “the awakened humans”, “dark warriors”, and “energy practitioners” in the dark ages, maybe it was just a strange name for a strange place.
The only thing that puzzled Chu Yunsheng the most was the “dialogue” itself. Leaving the question of what “New Deity” was aside first, the fact that he was able to understand the other person’s “language” was more than enough to make him confused. In consciousness, there were only thoughts, he couldn’t really “talk”. Surprisingly, however, he actually “talked” and the other person also heard it and understood it!
In other words, he used a way that he didn’t know at all to successfully talk to a “person” who he didn’t know where it was.
Such an absurd thing and such an absurd experience were as unreal as a dream, but when he “woke up” it consumed him fifteen days!
At this time, he heard insects’ noises again, and it was not far away in this building. Chu Yunsheng didn’t dare to think too much about it. He quickly turned off the watch’s backlight and lurked into the darkness.
Although he had night-vision goggles, he didn’t want to use it at the moment.
Regarding the darkness, instead of saying that Chu YunSheng liked it, he always felt that he was much safer in the dark. Although he didn’t know why.
However, although he was used to living in the dark, he, who had just come out of the zero-dimensional space, still needed some time for his eyes to adapt to the dark environment.
Looking around, he found that it was much darker than he remembered. Apart from some occasional blaze of fire from far away, most of the time, it was pitch black in the corridor.
He pulled out the sword and walked down the stairs carefully one step at a time. It didn’t matter if he couldn’t see insects. He could feel the fluctuation of Yuan Qi. Sometimes with the speed of the insects, it would be too late if he discovered them with his eyes.
This commercial building’s internal layout was very common in the age of light. The two sides on the south side of the building were leased out to any companies that needed office space. There was a long corridor in the middle. Because the floor was not high, the staircase was designed in the middle. If people looked down from above, it would look like a T shape with an elevator on the right, and the toilet on the left.
Chu Yunsheng went down from the sixth floor to the fifth floor, then he heard noisy footsteps. Judging from the steps, there were about five to six people, one of them seemed to be crying, and another sounded extremely nervous when he reminded others to hurry up moving upstairs.
When being chased by insects, hiding in a building with many rooms or escaping to the roof of the building was a very common method. Chu Yunsheng had done it himself as well.
However, without having any power, choosing this type of method was just to delay their death. Maybe if they were lucky, insects might give up searching for them.
However, with their uniquely sensitive senses, this kind of chance was very rare.
From the corner, through the gap between the stairs, Chu YunSheng could vaguely see the flashlight in the hands of those five or six people, but the number of insects was not yet known.
With early Yuan Tian stage one’s strength, he would not be able to kill many insects. Checking the black gas, it seemed that black gas was also used up in that strange place. So to avoid taking any risk, he put away his sword and took out a bow.
Although the police crossbow was good, and he had also used one for a very long time before, it was no longer handy compared to a bow. His archery skill now was much better than before, so was his accuracy and speed. Therefore, he had replaced the police crossbow with a bow and he had also transferred the frost arrow talisman.
Regardless of the power of the frost arrows, even if the bow was used as a cold weapon, it still had advantages over a sniper rifle and an assault rifle that Fang Baixiao gave him. At least, it would be the quietest weapon, and it would not attract the attention of a swarm of insects.
Leaning against the wall, Chu Yunsheng was moving carefully to the right corridor, trying not to make any sound.
As long as he kept quiet, and plus his energy shield, unless insects happened to bump into him, it would be difficult for them to find his existence, otherwise, in the past fifteen days, his body would have already been taken away by insects.
After setting up the ambush, he took an arrow but did not rush to pull the bowstring, waiting quietly like an experienced old hunter.
Sneaking attack was always Chu Yunsheng’s favorite method of attacking the insects. If he could prevent himself from being exposed, he would never expose himself. Sometimes, he would rather lose a very good opportunity than take risks. This was one of the reasons he believed why he could live to this day.
The breathless noises of the five or six people downstairs were getting closer and closer. Nowadays, not many people were physically fit. It was already good enough that they were able to run up several floors in a short period of time.
Judging from the speed and the frequency of their footsteps, Chu YunSheng guessed that those people seemed to want to go to the roof.
Although there was no escape route on the roof, it would give people a false sense of hope. At the worst, they could jump off the building, it would be less painful than getting eaten by the insects.
It was based on this information that Chu YunSheng set up his ambush position. He was sure that everything was perfect and he would definitely be able to kill the insects that were chasing those people.
However, although he had calculated all the possible accidents, he still missed one. Although all his physical functions had been slowed down to the minimum in the past fifteen days, he would still become hungry inevitably. By the time he realized this, it was already too late.
Just when those people were running up to the sixth floor from the fifth floor, Chu Yunsheng’s stomach growled in strange noises. It was very loud in the quiet corridor.
“Who is there!?”
The last person in the group quickly shined the flashlight at him and shouted.
Under the not so bright flashlight, Chu Yunsheng was holding a bow and hiding in a corner like an idiot.
What could he say now? He could not say, “It’s me, you guys can leave first, and forget about me?”
No matter what he said, it still did not feel appropriate. So he put away his bow and arrow, walked up to the group of people, glanced down the stairs, and changed the topic, “how many insects are down there?”
In this group, there were three men and two women, a total of five people. The oldest man in the group looked like he was in his early forties. After looking at the other people in the group, the man said, “One.”
“Are you sure?” Chu Yunsheng questioned, and also tried to sense the fluctuation of Yuan Qi downstairs.
There was a girl, only about twelve or thirteen years old, with a little disheveled hair, and although she was running, there was a doll in her hand. She nodded very hard and said, “Just one, but it’s so big!”
As the insect approached, Chu Yunsheng also sensed its existence, indeed there was only one.
“Wait here for a while, I need to ask you something.”
Since it was just one, it would be very easy to handle. As soon as Chu Yunsheng finished, he instantly disappeared.
“Wait!” the middle-aged man hurriedly shouted. However, it was too late.
“Daddy, that uncle is so fast!” The little girl looked up and said seriously.
At this moment, Chu Yunsheng had already arrived downstairs, and within a few seconds, the sound of fierce fighting came from below.
“Shit!” The middle-aged man cursed and hurriedly ran downstairs.
