Chapter 120 (1/2)

Chu Yunsheng didn’t know where the witch got three trucks from, although they looked old and clumsy, when they were on the road, they were actually quite stable.

In order to save petrol, they didn’t bring more cars with them, most of the dark warriors were asked to sit on the back of the truck. Apart from Chu Yunsheng and the witch, there were around 15 dark warriors. Amongst them, the highest rank was just Rank-two Yi-cla.s.s.

Deep inside Chu Yunsheng’s mind, he knew that the witch was a skillful person. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to gather this many people in this short amount of time.

Chu Yunsheng was a.s.signed to sit in a relative comfort seat next to the driver. Although many people were not happy about this arrangement, they didn’t dare to say anything.

They set off from the city’s west gate and headed north-west, while there were still hazy s.h.i.+mmers in the sky.

With just this small number of people, Chu Yunsheng was worried that if they encountered a swarm, they would probably need to abandon the whole plan. Luckily, everyone including the driver were dark warriors, so they probably wouldn’t have any problem escaping.

Only after they traveled for some time, did Chu Yunsheng finally realize why the witch was so confident. In her group, there was a person, who had a wind elemental ability. Although he was just a Rank-one dark warrior, his detection ability was almost as good as the little tiger. In just 5km, they had already bypa.s.sed three swarms of insects.

What surprised Chu Yunsheng, even more, was that this man’s badge clearly belonged to an ice elemental dark warrior!

Later on, the driver told him that this man was one of those people, who was awakened twice. This type of awakening was very rare.

That guy was accidentally awakened with wind elemental controlling ability. However, his both abilities couldn’t pa.s.s the rank-two evaluation test. The wind elemental ability even just barely reached the rank-one Bing-cla.s.s. If it weren’t for the fact that his wind elemental ability could be used to detect movements, probably no one would be interested in inviting him.

Chu Yunsheng didn’t have much knowledge about the awakening. His recent study of the book also didn’t focus on that area. But the information he received made him think about the little tiger’s metal elemental and wind elemental abilities. Although the little tiger was born with two abilities, there was one thing that they both had in common. It was that the main ability usually belonged to one of the common elements, but the second one usually was very strange.

The main ability usually belonged to the five main elements, for instance, the little tiger’s metal element and that man’s ice element. The second ability was almost like a mutant ability, For example, the wind element was related to the wood element.

But apart from the little tiger, the driver told Chu Yunsheng that those people’s second abilities were usually not very powerful. It might look impressive but it was actually useless. The real powerful dark warriors were those who could use one ability to its extreme. For instance, the fire king, the ice king, and other powerful Dark Warriors, all of them could easily kill those people, who were awakened twice.

With the help of this man and the little tiger’s detection ability, although the journey was scary, it was not very dangerous. There were a few times that they could not avoid a swarm of insects, but they managed to find the weakest part of the swarm and broke through those insect’s encirclement.

The granary depot was less than 50Km away from Jin Ling city. It was surrounded by many hills, so it was conducive to hiding. Sometimes they would need to hide in hills to wait for a swarm of insects to move past them. The longest time they had waited was five hours. When they finally got to the granary depot, it was already two days later, and they had also lost one truck.

However, when they got to the granary depot, it seemed like the place had already been taken. There were walls around the grain depot and a tall watchtower inside.

Moreover, his group was not the first team to arrive at the grain depot. Outside the walls, there were all kinds of cars that were already parked there. Some people were standing on top of cars and cursing at the people inside.

————————————————————————————–

Lu Guolong was anxiously walking back and forth in the bas.e.m.e.nt. Since yesterday, many people have started to come to this granary depot one after another. They all demanded him to open the gate and give out food.

He was originally from a village nearby this grain depot, and he had been single for 40 years. The first reason was that he was poor, the second reason was that his appearance was a little bit intimidating. Since the dark age began and the plague of insects, he has hidden inside this grain depot.

In the beginning, the depot owner was still alive. But one day, the granary was attacked by a swarm of insects. Many people died that day, including the owner of the depot. When he finally crawled out of piles of bodies, he was awakened. With the help of his strange ability, he reinforced the bas.e.m.e.nt wall. From that day, even if the insects moved past the grain depot again, they were not able to detect where he was.

He had also been to Jin Ling city before. After all, it was not far from the granary depot, but he was only given rank-one evaluation. Moreover, because his ability was the earth elemental ability, which was the relatively weak element when it comes to attacking. This result upset him a lot.

Originally, the military wanted to recruit him and a.s.signed him to reinforce the defense line, but no one expected that a large-scale conflict between dark warriors and the military suddenly broke out inside the city. He almost died in Jin Ling city at that time.

After escaping from the conflict, he returned to the grain depot. With his ability, he built an earthly paradise for himself.

As time pa.s.sed by, more and more people started to escape from Anhui province. Because of the food shortage, many people had no choice but to stay at the granary depot. After Lu Guolong used his ability to gather a group of rank-one dark warriors, he instantly became a king of this granary depot.

Although this place was not as safe as Jin Ling city, it was not very dangerous. Whenever they were found by a group of insects, they would usually force a few people to go outside of the wall to lure the insects away.

Lu Guolong’s ability was limited, whenever there was something that he couldn’t deal with, he would hide in his small bas.e.m.e.nt. The only thing he was scared of the most was the golden-sh.e.l.led insect. If a golden-sh.e.l.led insect dug into his bas.e.m.e.nt, no matter how strong his bas.e.m.e.nt was, he would still be dead.
