Chapter 77: Chapter 77 Who Is The Cannon Fodder

Location: Fog city section two, the ground floor of a shopping mall.

This was the gathering point that everyone had decided before the mission started.

Ban Shijun and other people were sitting on the ground anxiously, no one knew if Chu Yunsheng was still alive or not, but everyone was talking about it.

“Let’s go Capt. Ban, we’ve been waiting for twenty minutes now, I don’t think he is still alive!”

“Yeah, no one can survive the flaming monster’s attack. Just look at what happened to Lao Wang and the other two people, they all got burned into ashes!”

“If he is still alive, he should be back by now.” the man let out a long sigh, then carried on saying, “I just didn’t expect that he is the same as us. Just one flaming monster… Just one… It’s over now, it’s over!”

“I told you he would not make it, I told you!”

“What a shame, what a shame!”

“Insects are coming, we are all gonna die here…”

“It’s our fate, we have survived this long, it’s enough now…”

“Sigh…”

……

Everyone was mumbling about something dispiritedly, and almost everyone thought that Chu Yunsheng was dead. No one knew what they were going to do next. Chu Yunsheng was the strongest guy in their group, but he was still killed by the flaming monster like that. So who else could deal with the flaming monster?

Yao Xiang was sitting in the corner. His heart sank deeper as time ticked away. Amongst those people, he was the one who knew Chu Yunsheng’s strength the best, and he was also the most anxious one, but he also was not sure if Chu Yunsheng was still alive or not.

Suddenly, the mall’s entrance was kicked open, it was the awakened warrior, who was supposed to guard the outside for everyone. He stumbled into the mall and shouted with excitement, “he is back, he is still alive, still alive!”

The crowd instantly exploded with excitement.

“He is back!?”

Ban Shijun pulled over the man and almost shouted to him, “Chu Yunsheng is alive!?”

When the man was about to answer him, Yao Xiang lost his composure and shouted, “Brother Chu!”

Then a man in red armor and slowly appeared at the entrance.

It was Chu Yunsheng!

‘He made it!’ This was their first thought.

Then when everyone surrounded him, they were shocked to find that his strange armor wasn’t damaged at all. There wasn’t even a slight crack on it. How was that even possible!

Yao Xiang finally smiled, “Brother Chu, I knew you would make it!”

Chu Yunsheng patted his shoulder and said to Ban Shijun, “Capt. Ban, we are running out of time, let’s go!”

“Mr.Chu, are you injured? Do you need any break?” Ban Shijun said sternly.

Chu Yunsheng shook his head, “I’m okay, let’s go!”

Hearing his answer, someone suddenly burst out in the group, “fucking hell, are you serious! Not even injured? You have my respect brother!”

“Huh? Didn’t you just say that he wouldn’t make it,” said a man, who was standing next to him.

Then another big guy also said, “even if he says that he can defeat two flaming monsters now, I’ll still believe him. This man is a miracle worker!”

….

Chu Yunsheng didn’t want to delay the mission. Without saying a single word, he lifted the sword, turned around, and ran into the fog.

He had one hour and thirty minutes left, but he still had five fog cores that needed to be destroyed!

Luckily, in section two and nine, they didn’t encounter any flaming monsters. Until when they got to section eight, they disturbed another one. Chu Yunsheng had gained experiences from the last encounter. This time he controlled his pace while running. He used two glacier talismans to slow down the flaming monster so he could make it to the fog wall and escape from the monster’s chase.

Because everything went well, he didn’t spend much time recovering himself, and this time, he appeared at the meeting point in section six in less than fifteen minutes.

But the extreme physical activities made him very exhausted. He had already had several cigarettes, but it still didn’t help him.

Most of the awakened warriors had already changed their opinions about Chu Yunsheng, they began to admire him from the bottom of their hearts now.

At the first time, he might be lucky, but he was still able to escape without any injuries the second time, then, without a doubt, it was absolutely because of his strength!

The desire to survive started to burst out from everyone’s mind. Everyone was filled with energy and hope as if the victory was in sight.

However, only Chu Yunsheng knew that only the last core was the most dangerous one!

If the last core was destroyed, the fog walls would disappear. It meant that if they encountered the flaming monster, they would have nowhere to hide. Everyone would have to fight the flaming monster together. It was either kill or be killed!

They were very anxious during the attack of the section six’s fog core, luckily, there weren’t any flaming monsters. However, when everyone arrived at the last section, section four, they were all stunned!

Section four was the section in which Chu Yunsheng killed the thug Jiang and his group. The meeting point also happened to be the club, where he had been to before.

While hiding in the club, they could vaguely see the flaming monster’s shadow that was cast on the fog above their heads, through the windows. The monster was wheeling in the sky for a very long time, and it didn’t seem to want to leave at all.

Commander Du had confirmed that in the sky above the last fog core, there was indeed a flaming monster!

Chu Yunsheng’s last hope was also destroyed by this news. Originally, he decided that once the last fog core was destroyed, even if the noise attracted the flaming monster, he would simply give up distracting the monster. He would just escape from this city with Ding Yan and Yao Xiang and let fate decide who would be the unlucky one that would be chased by the flaming monster.

But now, the situation had changed, the monster was already there. It meant that he needed to lure it away first, otherwise, the rest of the awakened warriors couldn’t destroy the core. But what if he lured the flaming monster away and they did destroy the core? Then he would have nowhere to hide. The monster would definitely lock on to him, and at that time, how could he get away with the monster’s chase?

Chu Yunsheng did not know what to do. He couldn’t think of any ideas that would make it become a win-win situation.

He knew from deep inside his heart that no one cared about his life. Once the fog wall was destroyed, everyone would just start to run away as soon as possible. No one would help him, even Commander Du, because this man’s first priority was to protect those scientists and regroup with the military division first.

They only had less than thirty minutes now. There was no time for him to hesitate any longer, he needed to make a decision now!

If the insect’s main force came here, he might be able to survive for some time, but eventually, he would still be dead.

He did not know how many insects would be coming exactly, but he knew for sure it was a number that he could not deal with on his own! Even with the help of fog walls and the red-eyed monsters, they probably still could not withstand the swarm’s attack! He knew this since the day he saw the artillery strike when he was on the Dong Shen university’s truck.

Everything was very clear now. Everyone knew what Chu Yunsheng was worried about. So everyone including Commander Du promised him that they would not abandon him.

But their credibility was Zero!

He sneered and finally made up his mind, “if they are going to run away, then don’t blame me for leading the flaming monster straight to them! At that time, let me see how they are still going to run away!”

Chu Yunsheng trusted his own speed, he had enough time to lead the flaming monster to other people and use them as cannon fodders. He definitely would be able to run away!

Checking his equipment, out of nine glacier talismans, he had already used five of them. He did not have enough time to make more. Higher-level talismans usually took more time to make, so he now had: four glacier talismans, seven full-patterned absorption talisman, a set of combat armor, a sword, an energy shield, a gun, a bow, and some corrosive liquids. Those were all the equipment he had now.

A few moments later, as Commander Du gave the order, all the awakened warriors started to move out anxiously. Before they moved out, Chu Yunsheng told Ding Yan not to stay with a large group of people later on, and if everyone was going to abandon him, don’t try to save him, just run as fast as he could with Yao Xiang.

Because those people would be his cannon fodders!
