The battles between humans usually attracted at least one or two red-sh.e.l.led insects. Chu Yunsheng couldn’t stop those people nor red-sh.e.l.led insects, all he was able to do was to kill the insects as fast as he could.

By pulling the rope that was tied to the roof, Chu Yunsheng quickly swung towards the crowd. A Frost Arrow pierced through the air and embedded straight into the red-sh.e.l.led insect’s sh.e.l.l without any resistance. The insect was completely frozen together with the arrows.

He swung toward the red-sh.e.l.led insect, reached out his other hand, and grabbed the end of the frozen arrow. With Yuan Qi immediately gus.h.i.+ng out his hand, he lifted the insect by the end of the arrow, swung over the crowd, and arrived at the nearby roof with the help from the tension of the rope.

The crowd suddenly stopped crying and screaming. All the torchlights were s.h.i.+ned at Chu Yunsheng’s back. What they saw was a lone gray view of his back and the mysterious crossbow that hung there.

No one knew who he was!

No one knew where he came from!

He seemed mysterious and powerful, but never landed!

He came alone and left alone.

All he took away were the dying red insects!

So the rumors about him gradually spread in the Eastern District of Shen Cheng city.

The horror city started to create more and more powerful people, many people were talking about it. Chu Yunsheng was only occasionally mentioned among those people, and most of the time he was silently hunting for red-sh.e.l.led insects in the desolate streets.

Chu Yunsheng had also heard some of these rumors. There were two people that were the most talked about. The first person was in the army, known as “The Steel Beast”. According to the rumors, he could kill a single red-sh.e.l.led insect simply with a punch. Chu Yunsheng really wanted to know how many punches could this person throw in one breath?

Another was said to be the government’s security adviser called “The Ice King”. This person’s ability was quite similar to Chu Yunsheng’s Frost Arrow. The only difference was that The Ice King could freeze a large number of Red-sh.e.l.led insects instantly.

Standing on the roof of a three-story high building, Chu Yunsheng thought, “If I killed a sufficient number of red-sh.e.l.led insects, I would be able to create combat armor. At that time I may not be weaker than those people!”

Recently, the more red-sh.e.l.led insects he killed, the more of them would appear. But he had no clue where they all came from. Moreover, it became harder and harder to encounter just one single red-sh.e.l.led insect as time went by. It made him very frustrated.

If he killed enough insects, then he would not need to hide and only hunt for single red-sh.e.l.led Insects anymore! Staring at the pig’s brain outside in the street, Chu Yunsheng thought. That was his bait, but it seemed like it had failed to attract any insects today.

He has waited here for a while already, and his body started to become stiff slightly. He had heard from the people who pa.s.sed by, saying that the temperature now seemed to have stopped declining. But strangely he still felt unusually cold.

“I should get something to eat!” Chu Yunsheng touched his cold belly and told himself. Recently he had only been able to eat bread and biscuits, so today he decided to eat something hot.

This three-story high building used to be a luxury restaurant. He didn’t spend much time before finding a kitchen on the first floor. All of the cooking equipment was still there, they just were not in the right places. Someone must have come here before him. Anything that could be considered edible was already gone.

But it didn’t matter, Chu Yunsheng already had ingredients. Lighting up the camping stove, Chu Yunsheng started to prepare for the meal. The environment he was in didn’t allow him to do many things, so he was only able to make a hot-pot.

Beef, bok choy, noodles, even some tofu were all mixed together, causing the air to become filled with the aroma of food.

This was probably the best meal Chu Yunsheng has had recently. Although he stored plenty of food, he had neither the time or the skill to cook often.

With the hot bok choy and beef in his stomach, his body started to warm up steadily. He felt so comfortable that he even s.h.i.+vered a bit. It has truly been that long since the last time he had a warm meal.

It was just an ordinary meal, but it became a luxury need in this kind of environment.

“Huh? Did Someone just come in?” Chu Yunsheng swallowed a piece of beef quickly before he picked up the crossbow. The pot had at least half of the food unfinished, so he was reluctant to leave it.

Soon a group of students appeared in his view first, they were staring directly at his half pot of beef. They were followed by a group of men and women holding various weapons. They were also looking at his half pot of beef.

The luxury restaurant’s kitchen was not that big, but suddenly it became crowded with so many people inside.

Chu Yunsheng held the crossbow, dazed at them for a long time. Then he pointed at the half pot of beef instinctively and said in an awkward tone. “… This is mine.”

“Not anymore!” a burly man said casually. The man was bald, and his face carried a long, red-colored scar, looking very aggressive. He used the machete he was holding to tap the stove a few times, making everyone s.h.i.+ver uncontrollably.
