Chapter 318 (1/2)

Dumb Insect always envied of Chu Yunsheng’s ability to send out a long and complicated message fast. This was something that no matter how hard it tried to learn, but it still couldn’t do it.

Old Purple was just focusing on crawling. The funny thing was that it was quite scared of Chu Yunsheng’s ability as well. Because of its ability to compile a message was even worse than Dumb Insect, so it was scared to talk to Chu Yunsheng.

But it didn’t expect that even if it pretended that it was busy, Chu Yunsheng still wanted to talk to him.

“Old Purple, why do you guys still stay here, if you have enough fire energy? Why didn’t you guys leave?”

Old Purple suddenly trembled a little, then it tried its best to compile a message, “Dumb… Insect… said… You… alive… We… Must… find… find… find… you…”

The purple flames on its head burst out three times when it tried to say find you. It was very obvious that it was struggling.

Old Purple was relieved when it finished the message.

Chu Yunsheng was dazed for a second. Although Min and he both told them before that the first priority was the mission, he did not expect that those insects would stay in this dangerous place and look for him.

Sometimes, Chu Yunsheng had a hard time to picture those insects with what they do together. Mentally they were just as innocent as kids, but physically they were like killing machines. Whenever he thought about those awakened human beings that abandoned him in the fog city, he did not know which one was scarier. Was it a human being with a vicious heart, or was it the beast with an innocent mind?

Chu Yunsheng stopped talking, and Old Purple also stopped sending out messages. Only Dumb Insect was constantly asking him questions as if he was an encyclopedia.

Old Golden was busy expanding the crack at the front and it seemed like they were going deeper and deeper under the ground.

In order to prevent Dumb Insect from asking him more questions, Chu Yunsheng began to tell it stories…

Time slowly pa.s.sed in the crack, six insects were crawling quietly and peacefully in the narrow tunnel while listening to Chu Yunsheng’s stories.

“Crack…”

Suddenly, they heard a cracking sound.

Chu Yunsheng was alarmed and immediately ordered the golden-sh.e.l.led insect to stop. All the insects stopped instantly. In the quiet tunnel, the ground underneath them was constantly cracking.

“Careful!” as Chu Yunsheng shouted, the ground below suddenly collapsed. All of them fell into a big smooth pipe and then they started to slide downwards.

Chu Yunsheng did not know who made this pipe and what material it was made of. No matter how he tried to use his sharp legs to stab into the pipe to stop himself from sliding down, he just could not succeed, he couldn’t even make any scratches on it.

He was sliding down fast, and all other insects were the same.

The pipe was not very long, so in just a few minutes they reached the end of the pipe. But then they began to fall straight down.

Chu Yunsheng was the first one who came out of the pipe and when he looked down, he was almost scared to death.

He and the rest of the insects had fallen into a deep and vast cave. It was so deep that if he could not slow down the falling speed, he would die instantly when he landed.

He was moving his legs and claws rapidly trying to grab something. He didn’t want to die this way. However, there was nothing around him.

Fortunately, just when he was about to scream, Dumb Insect caught him, and it was caught by Little Red, then Little Red was caught by Old Purple and Old Purple was caught by Little Green. Both Brother Worm and Old Golden grabbed Old Purple at the same time, so they were alright.

With so many insects dangling underneath Little Green, Little Green screeched loudly trying to take them back to the collapsed area. However, they were too heavy. Even though it had leveled up to the second form, it was still too hard for it to lift all the insects. It was only able to slow down the falling speed.

Seeing his falling speed was slowed down, Chu Yunsheng was finally relieved. He looked around trying to find somewhere they could land, but he was immediately stunned by what he saw again.

“What the f.u.c.k is that.”

What he fell into was not a cave, it was a gigantic graveyard, and it was not a human’s graveyard, nor was it an insect’s graveyard. It was a graveyard for s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps.

In the eerie green light at the bottom of the graveyard, there were so many enormous futuristic s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps scattering around, and all of them were stabbed into the ground like many swords.

Suddenly, Chu Yunsheng stopped falling. There seemed to be a strange force stopping them from approaching the graveyard any closer.

Although they were floating in the air at the moment, Chu Yunsheng didn’t trust the unknown force. So he asked Little Green to send them to the wall near them.

Chu Yunsheng didn’t pay attention to the wall near them at the beginning, but as they got closer and closer to then, he was stunned again.

Many gigantic monsters’ skeletons that were as big as s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps were embedded into the wall, and they were spread across the wall of the cave.

…

“What the h.e.l.l is this place!” Chu Yunsheng was very anxious. And before he stabbed his legs into the wall, he hesitated. However, in the end, he still did it and ordered the rest of the insects to do the same.

He didn’t want to stay in this place, it was too strange and too creepy. So he immediately asked Little Green to pick up Old Golden and fly back to the place where they fell.

They needed to get back to the original route and find the collapsed exit that the soldier mentioned and get back to the ground.

While Little Green and Old Golden flew away to dig a tunnel, all the insects were resting on the wall.

Time slowly pa.s.sed in the cave, after a while, Little Green flew back and started to pick up other insects one by one.

Suddenly, Chu Yunsheng heard some strange noises.

“Woo… Woo…”

It seemed to be caused by the wind or the energy fluctuations in the cave.

‘But why does the noise sound so sad?’ Chu Yunsheng thought while waiting for Little Green to come back.

Slowly the blurry sad noises became more and more clear!

‘It was not caused by the wind or the energy fluctuations! Someone or something was mourning!’

Then the monsters’ skeletons began to flash green light slowly as if they were breathing.

As Chu Yunsheng looked around, he noticed that not only was his side of the wall flas.h.i.+ng the green light, the entire cave was flas.h.i.+ng in green, and whenever the wall became dim, he could see all the green light move towards the center of the cave.

He gazed afar at the center of the cave. There seemed to be a hill and it was surrounded by many piles of white crystals?

A few seconds later, the mournful voice finally became audible, and at the moment when Chu Yunsheng heard it, his sight was suddenly forced to zoom in.

“… Great mistake was made, tears drenched our clothes;” (mournful noise)

As his sight was zoomed in, he noticed that the hill didn’t look natural…
