Chapter 132 (1/2)
Originally, Chu Yunsheng planned to sort out some cultivation methods from the ancient book for Lu Yu and Yao Xiang. But since last night, he realized that if he was not careful, the cultivation method he gave out not only would not help them, but also it might kill them.
On the next day, Chu Yunsheng took the little tiger and went out of the city right after Yao Xiang’s group left the city. Ding Yan and the rest of five dark warriors were staying behind to guard the office building.
The little tiger was his lookout. With its help, Chu Yunsheng could easily avoid contacting a large swarm. Where he was staying right now was the place where he met Duan Danian the first time. It was the place where Duan Danian tried to rob him.
This place was surrounded by hills, so even if he was discovered by a swarm, he would still be able to get away easily.
Monster Seal Talisman was powerful, but it also consumed a lot of Yuan Qi. It consumed Yuan Qi three times more than a glacier talisman
A level-three offensive talisman such as glacier talisman would consume him 15 units of Yuan Qi, With his second sub stage’s ability, he was only able to store 60 units of Yuan Qi at maximum. So a monster seal talisman, which consumed 45 units of Yuan Qi was still luxury stuff to him.
It would be not really worth it If he just used it to seal a red-sh.e.l.led insect,
Sometimes, some things could not simply be measured by numbers. For example, Chu Yunsheng’s sword-fighting techniques. Each time he used it, it would consume him 10 units of Yuan Qi. Its power was almost the same as a level-three offensive talisman. But the advantage of a level-three talisman was that it could be stored for later use.
The same thing applied to master seal talismans, as long as the monster didn’t die, he would be able to use it repeatedly. The injured monster could be healed by infusing Yuan Qi inside the talisman to nourish it. The monster would slowly recover by itself.
So every option had its advantages, he would need to decide which option would be more suitable based on the situation he was facing.
Originally, he stole a lot of Yuan Qi. However, he gradually used almost half of them. At the moment, he had only four level-two absorption talismans left. The level-three absorption talisman was already empty.
His current plan was to try to absorb monsters’ Yuan Qi and use monsters’ Yuan Qi to kill more monsters.
Although one red-sh.e.l.led insect could only provide him two units of Yuan Qi, which was not a lot. It was still better than nothing. In order to preserve as much energy as possible, he wore the combat armor and fought the red-sh.e.l.led insect from close range most of the time.
He didn’t dare to go out of the green dragoon mountain’s mountain range, because he didn’t know what was beyond the mountain range. He still remembered the flaming monsters and the gigantic leg monster. There could be even more monsters that were more powerful than the red-sh.e.l.led insects.
He made a monster seal talisman when he killed 30 red-sh.e.l.led insects. He also froze one red-sh.e.l.led insect and tortured it almost to death before he sealed it.
Because he didn’t dare to fight with a large swarm, after he spent 6 hours, he was only able to seal two red-sh.e.l.led insects. He really wanted to seal a golden-sh.e.l.led insect. Only the golden-sh.e.l.led insect could be used to surprise the enemy during the attack!
However, during those 6 hours, he didn’t encounter any single one of them.
At around 14:00, Chu Yunsheng and the little tiger were taking a break at a mountain col. Although he was not exhausted, 6 hours of killing still had a little bit of impact on his body.
It wasn’t long after the little tiger was fed, the little tiger started to show signs of detecting dangers. Chu Yunsheng instinctively thought that it was a large swarm coming towards them, so he immediately hid into the cave that he had dug earlier.
But soon, he was surprised to hear human screams. He knitted his brows and crawled to the higher ground. Using the night vision goggles that Ding Yan gave to him, he looked at the direction where the screams came from.
Through the night vision goggles, all he saw were just green figures. The s.h.i.+mmery light in the sky wasn’t bright enough, so he couldn’t see them clearly. All he saw was a group of around 30 red-sh.e.l.led insects attacking a group of around 20 humans.
Then screams were made by them.
Without spending too much time thinking, Chu Yunsheng guessed that those people must be the refugees from the other cities, and they could survive this long, it meant that most of them were the awakened humans. If they were ordinary people, they would have been dead on the way here already.
Through the night vision goggles, Chu Yunsheng could tell that there must have been at least 8 dark warriors. Of course, they have not entered Jin Ling city yet, it seemed inappropriate to call them dark warriors at the moment.
Chu Yunsheng could tell that they were exhausted, it didn’t seem like they could hold on much longer. After using the goggles to glance over areas, he didn’t seem to find any other red-sh.e.l.led insects, so he quickly made up his mind and said to the little tiger, “Go!”
He was a cautious man, but it didn’t mean that he would watch those people die. As long as he was sure that he could win, and even if he couldn’t win, if he would be able to run away, he would still try to save other people.
