Chapter 85
Chu Yunsheng did not know when he and Lan Chaoyin were separated, his only thought now was to constantly wave the sword.
Insects just kept appearing continuously. They ran past them and started to slaughter anyone they saw. Slowly, the fire torches were put out one by one.
Chu Yunsheng’s night vision goggles were already broken by the flaming monster, he could only rely on his senses to detect the Yuan Qi movements around him. Because it went completely dark, he didn’t know how many insects were there. All he could hear was the noises made by the insects and people’s horrifying dying screams.
“Bang!”
After Chu Yunsheng pulled the trigger, a giant fireball was shot out from his gun, it instantly lit up the insects around him. With the help of fire, he could barely see where he was running to.
When dealing with red-shelled insects, his gun was way less effective than the sword. Most of the time, it was just used as a flare to help him find a way.
Just right before the swarm arrived, he had used his fastest speed to make one energy shield talisman and cast it onto his body. However, before he even had time to make one for Lan Chaoyin, he was quickly swallowed up by the swarm.
With the Yuan Tian stage two’s strength, combined with Qian Bi sword, and if the combat armor was not broken, he would definitely be able to break out from here.
Soon, he could even hear soldiers’ screams, he was very close to them. However, although it was very close, he still felt like it was even further than the distance between Kun city and Sheng Chen city.
The closer he got to the place where the sound of gunfire was, the denser the swarm was. When he finally got into the village he realized that he could not get through there. The village was already blocked by a massive amount of insects. There was no space he could use to get through!
He couldn’t fight anymore, and he could not retreat or push forward either, so he immediately ran into a three-story high village house, and killed one red-shelled insect that was following him.
The lights that caused the gunfire and the artillery fire were flickering in the village. Chu Yunsheng did not have time to worry about if there were more insects chasing him or not. With the help of the flickering lights, he used his final strength to get to the second floor, and used his sword to destroy the staircases. After that, he just collapsed on the floor.
Chu Yunsheng had already finished all the absorption talismans, even the energy shield talisman was nearly broken. Luckily the insects were attracted by the gunfire, they did not chase him.
Struggling to get up, he just crawled slowly towards the windows. Wiping off the blood from his face, what he saw next made him laugh.
He laughed how stupid he was.
With the help of gunfire outside, he finally saw the “army” he had been looking for. It was a just group of soldiers on the roof of a building, and they were surrounded by insects. The main military force probably had already retreated. Those soldiers were left behind to delay the swarm.
…Meanwhile, the soldiers on the roof of the building Chu Yunsheng saw……..
“Major, we are out of ammo!”
“Me too!”
“I’m out of grenades!”
…
The bottom of the building was covered with many insects’ bodies. The live insects were crawling on top of the dead ones, trying to get to the roof and kill those soldiers, and they almost reached them.
After the major gave them the last order, everyone gathered together to form a tight circle. Some soldiers were laughing in the circle, some were crying, then…
“Boom!”
Suddenly, the ground shook violently. It was those soldiers. They detonated the explosives in the building below them.
