Chapter 395 (2/2)

“They also want to control it. However, if you think about it, the energy doesn’t come from the military. It comes from all the combat units, and energy manipulation masters. There are so many parties involved in this: the people from Dark Studio, phantom union, even the members of the military are also involved in this. So as long as it doesn’t affect the war with the insects, no one dares to interfere with the system. Besides, ever since the chaos began, it’s been proved, time and time again, that Shu Du city does indeed need this kind of system.” Gen Zi explained.

Chu Yunsheng was listening to Gen Zi explain how the system works while eating his food. As he understood it, the city had formed a preliminary dark age system. For example, the Qi family needed Dark Studio to develop equipment for them to store the energy. While at the same time, the studio needed someone to store and manage a lot of energy for them. Even if they temporarily ran out of energy, they could loan it from the bank. So in this sense, both parties were closely tied together.

After the food, Chu Yunsheng told Gen Zi that he needed to look for his family members. He kindly declined Gen Zi’s invitation to take him to see the city, but still borrowed some money from him.

After he got out of the hotel, he hired a cycle rickshaw that was waiting outside and headed toward the west city entrance.

The rickshaw’s hiring fee was quite cheap, even if Chu Yunsheng gave the man the smallest note he had, the man was still not able to get him any change. So in the end, Chu Yunsheng hired him for the entire day. He could also use the time he had on the rickshaw to cultivate some energy.

The long-haired young man seemed to have already arrived at the west entrance for quite a long time. When he saw Chu Yunsheng, he quickly approached him and said respectfully.: “Brother, you look very refres.h.i.+ng today.”

Chu Yunsheng took out both a 100 and a 50 Lun banknote and said, “Get on and tell me everything you know about the city.”

In fact, Chu Yunsheng could have asked Lu Ting or Gen Zi to take him to see the city, and get more information about it from them. However, he didn’t want to raise any more suspicions. Although Lu Ting didn’t say anything, Chu Yunsheng wasn’t stupid enough to think that he didn’t notice anything.

He had the long-haired young man as a guide to tell him all about the streets, the buildings and the surroundings of some areas that they couldn’t access. He wanted to spend a full day familiarising himself with the city. The young man even took him to see some big food companies like the Lin family’s food corporate. According to him, every food company had spent a huge amount of energy to purify the insects’ meat and maintain the systems on their farms.

The connection to the map went on and off all the time, and the person who had the map was also moving all the time. There was one time that the location of the map appeared inside the heavily guarded military barrack! When Chu Yunsheng got near the barrack, he even saw a strange flying machine take off vertically.

For the whole day, apart from cultivating energy on the rickshaw, he didn’t find much useful information. The long-haired young man told him that he knew a man who worked part-time at Dark Studio, so if Chu Yunsheng needed anything from him, he might be able to help.

However, Chu Yunsheng didn’t believe that the man would have the ability to help him get into the dark studio, so he decided to go back to the hotel.

When Chu Yunsheng got back to the hotel, Gen Zi and Old Wei were waiting outside for him. They told him that they were going to a place that was full of energy manipulation masters, and asked if he wanted to go with them.

Thinking that it might help him get some useful information, Chu Yunsheng didn’t refuse this time.

….

After three people sat down, Gen Zi, who was used to his extravagant lifestyle, ordered a bottle of very expensive alcohol. He instantly attracted many of the surrounding girls, who were dressed in revealing clothes. If it weren’t for the electric heating system, those girls would definitely already be frozen to death.

“Old Wei, I don’t see you very often nowadays. Don’t tell me that you have been staying home looking after your kid.” Gen Zi pulled over a girl and mocked.

“I am too old now. I’ve got a whole family to feed. Gen Zi, you’re also not young. It’s time to find a girl to settle down with.” Old Wei took a sip of the alcohol and said.

“Settle down? Old Wei, are you still sleeping? Haha…” Gen Zi laughed.

“Sigh… if your parents…” Old Wei still wanted to persuade him.

However, Gen Zi’s face instantly dropped. He pushed away the girl and shouted, “Old Wei, Do. Not. Mention my parents ever again!”

Old Wei sighed and shook his head.

“As I expected, you are really here!”

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind them. Chu Yunsheng turned around and saw Lu Ting hurriedly rush over and say to him, “Sun Sheng, take an early rest today, and prepare yourself. You’re going to attend a banquet with me tomorrow. Someone wants to see you!”

“Who?” Chu Yunsheng was alerted.

“The birthday girl!” Lu Ting said sternly.
