Chapter 304 (1/2)
‘If my brain is changed, then I will be completely dead!’
He could no longer keep his composure anymore. He had to fight back. How could “he” still survive if he let them change his brain.
Looking at the golden colored tube that was about to spit out a stream of liquid, Chu Yunsheng was moving his body violently. As he used all his strength to move forward, he barely dodged the first stream of strange liquid.
The strange and seemingly highly corrosive liquid missed Chu Yunsheng and went straight into the wall next to him. Within a second, it sliced open a wide gap on the wall.
The sudden uncooperative behavior of Chu Yunsheng made those tubes very “angry”. They immediately tightened themselves and dragged Chu Yunsheng back to the original place and locked him there.
The golden tube adjusted its position and was ready to spit out the strange liquid again.
Chu Yunsheng panicked. He could not afford to let them take his brain away. All his consciousness, thoughts, feelings, and memories were in his brain. Although technically it was not his brain, he still did not want to lose it.
He just came back from the dead. Although he had an insect’s body. At least, his consciousness was still there.
However, he was very weak, and his body was locked in there. All he could do was to use his mouth to chew the tubes that were restraining him like a mad dog.
Luckily those tubes were very fragile. They were easily chewed apart by Chu Yunsheng’s mouth.
His aggressive behaviors quickly attracted the tomb’s attention. Many offensive tubes that he was familiar with, quickly shot towards him and stopped a few centimeters away from him.
Chu Yunsheng believed that if he dared to destroy one more repairing tube, those offensive tubes would immediately tear him apart.
He could not move, but he could still scream. Although he was not sure that if those tubes were able to understand him or not, it was his last resort. He screamed at those tubes and shook his head to signal them that he was fully recovered.
While Chu Yunsheng was struggling to deal with the tubes, he did not notice that the big dumb insect that was in front of him, was staring at him nervously.
Chu Yunsheng did not know if the tomb understood him or not, but after a few minutes, all the tubes were retracted. Then the big dumb insect and he were sent to an a.s.sembly point inside the tomb.
Only until he got out of the repairing place, did he finally let out a long sigh of relief.
Chu Yunsheng did not know where to go next, so he just blindly followed the big dumb insect that was walking in front of him to a group of insects that seemed to have just been sent out by the tube not long ago.
In the beginning, Chu Yunsheng did not know why the group did not seem to move. Soon he realized that the insects in the group were queueing for something near the exit of the tomb.
Near the exit, there were large numbers of big and thick red tubes constantly spitting out many clots of slimy and semi-solid mucus. Each clot was as big as an old television. Every insect that came out of the tomb would get one of those.
When Chu Yunsheng followed the big dumb insect to one of the big red tubes that were distributing the mucus clot, a strong and irresistible sense of hunger suddenly appeared in his mind. He was staring at a clot of mucus, unable to move his eyes away from it.
He eagerly wanted to eat it!
However, the more he wanted to eat it, the slower he felt like the queue was moving.
When he was almost nearly the mucus distributing point, he suddenly “heard” a set of information. The noise seemed to be caused by the tubes on the wall, vibrating in a strange frequency. The frequency seemed to be sent to Chu Yunsheng’s sensory organs through Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi rather than the air, and strangely, Chu Yunsheng seemed to be able to decipher the information.
The information he received was about the number of mucus clots he could get.
Every red-sh.e.l.led insect was only able to get one, a green-sh.e.l.led insect was able to get two, and a golden-sh.e.l.led insect was able to get four…
Chu Yunsheng did not expect that there was also discrimination in the insect’s social structure. But he was not a rule-abiding red-sh.e.l.led insect. Of course, he would not follow those rules. When it was finally his turn, the extreme hunger made him swallow three clots at once.
Although as a human being, eating something like a clot of mucus made Chu Yunsheng feel extremely disgusting, his physical body was constantly sending the signal to his brain to tell him that it wanted more.
He instinctively raised his claws, wanting to take two more. But what he did, already attracted offensive tubes’ attention again. Looking at the tubes that were shooting towards him, Chu Yunsheng ran pa.s.s the big dumb red-sh.e.l.lded insect, who was always in front of him, and ran out of the tomb in one breath in panic.
Standing outside the tomb, Chu Yunsheng swallowed the last clot he got. An indescribable comfortable feeling quickly appeared all around his body again. A moment later, a burst of hot energy was pumped into his body from his stomach to his claws and legs until the energy reached every part of his body.
Chu Yunsheng suspected that if he opened his mouth now, he would definitely be able to spit corrosive liquid.
However, it did not last for long. Just when he was thinking that way, all the hot fire energy was moved back all the way to his b.u.t.t.
Then, all the energy disappeared.
Chu Yunsheng once again lost all his energy.
‘What the f.u.c.k! Did I just s.h.i.+t all the energy less than a minute after I ate it? How is that possible?’
Looking at other insects running past him energetically after they ate the mucus clot, Chu Yunsheng was confused. It seemed like only he had that kind of problem.
‘Something is not right!’ Chu Yunsheng thought. He could clearly feel that the energy was moved towards his b.u.t.t by something.
