Chapter 186 (1/2)

Wandering this abandoned town like a ghost, Chu Yunsheng felt like he had returned to the horror city.

In order to absorb more energy from red-sh.e.l.led insects, he decided to once again use the frost arrow.

Speaking of the long-range attack weapons, whether it was a gun or a crossbow. They were both something Chu Yunsheng was not good at. When it comes to the skills that Chu Yunsheng had mastered during the age of light, the only skill he had learned was how to write programs.

After all, back then, he didn’t have time and money to get into these luxury sports clubs. He just needed a skill that could help him to earn a decent amount of money, to support him buy a house and probably help him get married soon…

In short, just like most of the people during the age of light, the skills he had mastered from back then were totally useless in this post-apocalyptic world.

However, it all changed after Earth plunged into the darkness. He learned how to fire a gun, how to kill people, eat stuff that was not even considered as food…

The months of experiences he had wouldn’t make him an expert in shooting, but at least, he was able to freeze a red-sh.e.l.led insect a hundred steps away now.

If he was hiding in the dark, and without being noticed by the red-sh.e.l.led insect, he could also achieve 100% hit accuracy, as long as the red-sh.e.l.led insect didn’t have any big movements.

If he didn’t move but the insect was moving, then his accuracy would drop down to half.

If both of them were moving, unless it was in an extremely dangerous situation, normally he wouldn’t shoot the crossbow, because he didn’t want to miss the shot.

Unlike when he was in the horror city, he could no longer encounter a lone red-sh.e.l.led insect. Many red-sh.e.l.led insects often stayed in a group on top of the slimy substances. So without having many choices, he took a huge risk to look for a small group of them and attack them.

Only until he had enough Yuan Qi to make a monster seal talisman, did he start to change his hunting strategy.

He summoned a red-sh.e.l.led insect and used it to lure the other red-sh.e.l.led insects outside the area of slimy substance. Then he would kill them as fast as he could before the swarm arrived. This strategy instantly sped up his hunting progress.

When the sky once again went completely dark, Chu Yunsheng quietly returned to the 15-storeys high building. He had also made some adjustments to the building before he left. He had spread the red-sh.e.l.led insects’ corrosive liquid everywhere inside the building, from the ground floor to the third floor.

The mice also came back twice, but every time they were stopped by the corrosive liquid. So soon they all gave up and left.

When Chu Yunsheng returned, Edgar quickly prepared the mouse meat as usual. After Chu Yunsheng finished his meal, he quietly returned to the place next to the campfire and held the gun to watch out the surroundings.

Time quickly pa.s.sed. Chu Yunsheng didn’t expect that it took him almost two months to prepare everything. The temperature started to drop again and it started to snow. Perhaps it was winter time if it was still in the age of light.

Edgar had already used a knife to shave his beard many times, but it was still growing.

Chu Yunsheng’s supplies slowly and steadily increased in this two month time, the number of absorption talismans and offensive talismans he had also increased.

The insects were fire elemental monsters, so most of the offensive talismans he made were used to counteract the fire element, apart from the glacier talisman. He had also made 10 ice trap talismans.
