Chapter 671 - You Must Not Linger In This World (1/2)
Chu Yunsheng continued to walk through the surviving soldiers. His speed was not one minute faster than before, nor one second slower than before. He still walked slowly like he was not in a rush.
Behind him was a strip of particles that was glowing in the faint light. It was the residues of a part of the black-ridged insects that failed to merge with him. However, in the eyes of the soldiers, it was dazzling and mysterious.
It was a short street that was less than two hundred meters long, and anyone could walk past it within a minute or two. However, the soldiers felt like they were in purgatory. They anxiously hoped that Chu Yunsheng could walk past them as soon as possible, but they didn’t know that Chu Yunsheng also felt like he was in purgatory.
He couldn’t open his mouth to speak, as long as he opened his mouth, the blood that he tried to suppress in his throat would shoot out like an arrow.
His body was covered with a terrible amount of blood, and every step he made would leave a b.l.o.o.d.y footprint. Unlike those soldiers thought, those blood didn’t belong to other people. Under the power of Sword Howling, even a single grain of sand would not be able to approach him, let alone other people’s blood. Those blood were all his blood.
It was just that no one knew, and no one thought that way at all.
Even Old Youling also didn’t know. It was still shocked by Chu Yunsheng’s second sword form.
When he finally reached the crossroad, and there was just one street away before he could walk out of the army’s encirclement,
A tank gun’s gun suddenly protruded from the corner, then its body, its tracks… Finally, the whole tank appeared from the corner, and the gun slowly turned, aiming at him.
It was a Type-99 tank. Chu Yunsheng had seen it before, so he recognized it, but he found that his hearing seemed to have a serious problem. The sound of a tank was supposed to be very loud, but he felt like it was buzzing like a mosquito.
He didn’t know who was in the tank. Maybe they were fanatics or someone from the Duo Neng race, or maybe someone who didn’t know what they were doing, and they just happened to drive the tank here, but no matter who they were, such a provocation must not be tolerated, otherwise, some desperate people would react, and pounce on him like a hungry Wolf pack.
Therefore, Chu Yunsheng was still walking as if nothing could block his footsteps.
The backup sword was pulled out in an instant, and an arc of light was drawn in the air. With just one flash, the sharp sword arrived before the tank, and then in a split second, the tank was pierced through and cut dozens of times. When the gun turned once again, the tank cracked into a pile of fragments, together with the people inside.
He looked very cold at the moment, and he must look that way.
After the tank was turned into a pile of junk, the soldiers behind the tank didn’t dare to make a single move, fearing that this devil would misunderstand their intention and kill them.
It was the first time for most of them to partic.i.p.ate in actual combat in their lives. It was the first time for them to see so many dead bodies, the first time that they were so close to death, and the first time that they saw someone who could not be killed like the G.o.d of war. So it was normal that they were scared, and it was already not too bad that they didn’t turn around and run away.
When Chu Yunsheng finally disappeared into the darkness at the end of the street with a glowing strip behind him, more than half of the soldiers collapsed on the ground as if all their energies were drained from them.
After leaving the chaotic army, Chu Yunsheng wanted to find a quiet place where he could recover from his injuries, but he couldn’t find any.
It was as if the whole city was crowded with people.
He couldn’t hear any voices, but he could see the sorrowful scenes with some people crying and wailing in pain, and some staring blankly in the sky, and the wounded and dead bodies piling up one after another.
Only until now did he know how many people died in this battle!
Not counting those who were buried under the ruins caused by the Howling Sound, the number of dead bodies and wounded people here alone was more than enough to shock him, not to mention that this was just one corner of the periphery of the battle circle. If they all added up, it would be an extremely terrifying number.
The population density in the city was originally more than ten times higher than the upper limit. Then the battle took place in densely populated areas, so the casualties were extremely severe from the beginning.
Most of them were killed by the regular weapons before the sword howling skill was used. Some were killed by stray bullets, some were affected by artillery sh.e.l.ls, some were killed by Star Chart energy beams, and some were trampled to death during chaos… Some were killed by the talismans indirectly.
However, he was not sad, because he felt that the world was unreal, but it was not that he completely felt nothing, because he saw a child who was around two or three years old was sitting next to his mother’s corpse, pulling his mother’s cold hand and crying helplessly. Those frightened eyes made him feel that the world was so real!
He could only force himself to stay indifferent. Only in that way, would he be able to stay calm.
“Old Youling, you can come out now!”
After finally finding a corner with fewer people, Chu Yunsheng called out Old Youling, and was ready to let it rush to meet Yu Xiaohai and others.
“Bos-”
Old Youling had just said two words after it came out, then its face changed drastically, and it went back into the armor with a fearful scream, and refused to come out again.
Only a powerful enemy would scare Old Youling to such an extent.
Chu Yunsheng immediately became alert and unsheathed the sharp sword. He closed his eyes and tried to feel the fluctuation.
At this time, he suddenly “heard” the neighs and hooves that seemed to be made by horses. There seemed to be one of them, no, two, three… more and more of them appeared, like powerful torrents rolling forward!
Chu Yunsheng thought of several possibilities in an instant. Among them, the most likely one was that the insects took the opportunity and entered the city, but he didn’t know which of the three parties was it because he couldn’t feel any obvious energy fluctuations.
As he dashed out and came to the main road, he raised his head to find out what it was. Then he was instantly stunned.
In the dark sky far away on the other side of the battlefield, a gate of light with a hazy white glow just opened out of thin air. Thousands of green glowing chariots galloped down the steps from the gate. Each glowing chariot was pulled by three st.u.r.dy horses, and the three st.u.r.dy horses that pulled the chariot were all made up of green glowing lights. Behind them was a long coffin, on which there seemed to be a man in ancient armor steering the chariot.
Thousands of coffins swept across the battlefield like a flood, turning the whole world green. Countless green fluorescent particles were sucked into the coffins in the sound of ghost-like howling noise, as they flew past the city one after another.
As they got closer and closer, there was a gust of cold wind howling sorrowfully, like a thousand horses from the netherworld, rus.h.i.+ng towards Chu Yunsheng!
At this time, an old woman suddenly said with horror, “Soldiers of the netherworld crossing the border, once in a thousand years!”
Soldiers of the netherworld crossing the border?
Chu Yunsheng seemed to have heard it somewhere before, but he didn’t have time to think about it. The horses dragging the pitch-black coffin were about to arrive before him. Seeing their menacing appearance, it was definitely not just pa.s.sing by!
Chu Yunsheng immediately drew the sword and was prepared for a fight.
However, the old woman carried on with a trembling voice, “quick, quick, I, I need to write it down, otherwise…”
She glanced around, and couldn’t find a pen and paper. In the end, she simply picked up a broken brick and used the tip of the brick mark something on the ground. Her expression was extremely nervous as if she was racing against death.
At this time, a majestic reprimand appeared.
“Since you are already dead, why do you still obstinately persist? You must not linger in this world any longer to harm other creatures!”
