Chapter 363 (2/2)

“If it is the person you introduced, then there won’t be any problem.” The masked man said respectfully. Especially when facing that golden armored woman, he didn’t even dare to look her into her eyes.

Both of them were talking about Chu Yunsheng. However, no one had asked about Chu Yunsheng’s opinions.

The old man who was standing next to Chu Yunsheng suddenly tugged the corner of his clothes and said, “Congratulations! Young man. I knew that they would hire you. You look more competent than ordinary people.”

Chu Yunsheng shook his head. The first rule in his list was to stay away from strange things, not to mention that he did not want to get involved in anything that happened here.

“Young man, you probably don’t know…” The old man was surprised. He immediately wanted to explain the benefits of joining them to Chu Yunsheng, However, he was suddenly interrupted.

“You, follow me. The rest of you need to go there to register yourself, even if you are originally from here. All the information will need to be checked.” Said the masked man.

Seeing Chu Yunsheng seemed to want to refuse, the old man secretly patted his back and said, “young man, no matter what reasons you have, it is not wise to refuse them at the moment. Otherwise, they will think you are a spy.”

The old man’s words instantly reminded Chu Yunsheng that because of the three forces fighting with each other inside his body, his power was greatly reduced. If those masked men wanted to lock him up, he probably would not have any ability to resist, not to mention that the golden armor woman was also here.

‘Maybe it is time to accept my fate again.’ Chu Yunsheng thought.

‘Or maybe, it would be much easier for me to leave this place after I became one of those masked men.’

Chu Yunsheng breathed out a burning air through his mouth and then nodded his head. Then, he slowly followed the masked man towards a big grandiose tree house.

“He is introduced by the fire energy people, please register him in, and if there is no problem with his background, just give him the equipment straightaway.” said the masked man who took Chu Yunsheng to the tree house. He then whispered something at the other masked man’s ears before he left.

“What’s your name? And where did you come from? When did you come to Zhiwu forest?…” The masked man, who was responsible for registering, asked Chu Yunsheng several questions in one breath.

Chu Yunsheng opened his mouth and pointed to his throat, then shook his head.

The masked man was dazed for a second, “a mute? Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! What do they think our masked man army is?… Can you write? Carve your detail on this bamboo slip.”

Chu Yunsheng took over a needle and began to randomly carve a name and his fake background onto the slip.

The masked man had already treated him as someone related to those fire energy people, so he didn’t even bother to check Chu Yunsheng’s background. He just simply took out a box that was made of soil from the tree house, threw it to Chu Yunsheng and said with an unfriendly tone, “the manual is carved onto the box, you can take a look yourself. We only give out masks here. You will receive a weapon and a s.h.i.+eld once you are allocated into a specific unit.”

Chu Yunsheng caught the box and took a close look. There were several lines of words on it. It was very clear.

“Here is your token, take it and go to the barrack that way. Someone will tell you what to do.” The masked man waved his hands impatiently.

But Chu Yunsheng didn’t go to the barrack straightaway. Instead, he found a quiet corner and took out a light yellow mask that seemed to be made of soil.

There seemed to be different types of masks in this area, or at least the colors of masks were different. The one he had was light yellow, the masked men who took him here and the masked man, who registered him in, all had darker yellow masks.

He was holding the mask in his hands and watching it carefully. However, apart from a faint earth elemental energy fluctuation, he didn’t find anything special.

All the plants here were different from the plants in the spore forest, the energy they emitted was not a vibrant wood elemental energy. Instead, it was solid earth elemental energy.

‘No wonder the swarm could not conquer this place. Unlike the wood elemental energy, the earth elemental energy had a natural advantage over the fire elemental energy.’ Chu Yunsheng thought.

When Chu Yunsheng moved the mask close to his face, a strange thing happened. From inside the mask, suddenly appeared many small fibrous silk-like threads, reaching out towards Chu Yunsheng’s face.

In the next moment, the mask instantly stuck onto his face, and then the earth elemental energy began to flow towards him quickly.

Unlike the earth elemental energy that was able to turn a person into a soil sculpture. When the earth elemental energy went into his body from the mask, what originally quiet three forces began to fight for the energy again.

Although the energy was soon consumed completely by the three forces in his body, Chu Yunsheng noticed that the three forces seemed to be finally separated from each other. Although they had just been separated a little bit from each other, it finally gave Chu Yunsheng the hope of solving the most troublesome problem he had.

After a series of seemingly clothes-tearing sounds, Chu Yunsheng tore off the mask from his face. He touched his face, finding that everything seemed to be intact.

‘So this is the source of the masked men’s power. It can grant ordinary men powers, and make them fight like awakened human beings? But who has the ability to make this kind of mask?’

He also had the ability to produce weapons like roaring flame guns to arm ordinary people. However, he was not able to do it on this kind of scale.

Suddenly, he thought of one possibility. The old man who took him here had told him the ruler of this place had a thing called ‘Tubi’. It was said that that thing was dug out of the ground after Earth was plunged into the darkness.

‘So could that thing be the stuff that was left by those galaxy overlords that the senior pract.i.tioner mentioned?’

‘Could so-called Tubi also be a mask?’ a strange idea suddenly came into Chu Yunsheng’s mind.
