Chapter 281: When the Country Is Destroyed, Where Are the Mountains? (2)
“Country? It doesn’t exist anymore.”
“What do you mean?”
“From the moment the Beast Tide engulfed the capital, there was nothing. The army, the law, the upper echelons, they were all gone.”
“Bullsh*t. Where is the university committee?”
“They have already retreated to Shanghai.” The black-robed man struggled to get up. “Other than Shanghai, the rest of the places will be divided into factions. It’s funny that you commoners haven’t seen it clearly.”
Hearing this, Chen Yu and Ma Li looked at each other.
“In Asia, there’s only one Level 9 warrior. When he dies, order will no longer exist. Because the facts have already proven that the Beast Tide is undefeatable. There’s no point in fighting the exotic beasts. Humans will never build a core gathering place like the capital again.”
The black-robed man sneered. “In the future, humans will become more and more scattered in order to survive for longer. Until the extinction of the race. This will be the true end of the world.”
Chen Yu: “…”
“So, is there still any law? No. No matter what Bullsh*t number one scholar you are, if you provoke the Bahuang clan, you will only end up dead.”
Chen Yu: “The Bahuang race has sacrificed a lot on the battlefield.”
“That’s only the clansmen in the capital headquarters. In the entire country, there are still at least half of them.”
“Oh… that should be a rather large force.” Chen Yu was deep in thought. “In that case, your group belongs to Qingcheng City.”
“That’s right.”
“The leader of the Bahuang clan of Qingcheng is Bahuang Zhen, right?”
“That’s right.”
“I remember that his strength is only at the peak of Level 2.”
“That’s right.”
“Then…” Chen Yu bent down and looked at the black-robed man. “What is the strongest level of the Bahuang clan of Qingcheng?”
“That’s me. Level 4.”
Chen Yu: “…”
“Hahaha.” Ma Li was amused.
Bang!
Chen Yu immediately raised the hilt of his sword and knocked the black-robed man unconscious.
“What’s there to be afraid of? All of you, attack! Take down the Bahuang clan.”
…
Lacking a level 4 warrior to hold the line, the Bahuang clan quickly fell into a disadvantageous position. More than twenty death warriors were knocked unconscious by Chen Yu using his speed advantage.
He did not give the other party a chance to ‘open’ their acupoints.
After all, his teammate is Bahuang Yao, so he knew the strengths and weaknesses of Bahuang clan too well…
Pa pa.
After taking down the last person, Chen Yu patted the dust that did not exist on his hands and put away his long sword. “Ma Li, you should have a deactivator at home, right? It’s the kind of medicine that cannot use force when it is injected into the body.”
“Deactivator?” Ma Li narrowed her eyes. “That stuff is illegal.”
“No?”
“There are only about 600 of them.”
Chen Yu: “…”
“Are you giving it to them?” Ma Li kicked a soldier who had fainted.
“Give them all the deactivator and tie them up. I’m going to experiment first. No one is allowed to come in.”
“Alright, leave it to me.”
“Oh right.” Chen Yu suddenly stopped after taking a few steps. He turned around and asked, “What kind of business do you and your sister do?”
“A business that follows the law and pays taxes on time.” Ma Li was serious.
“Just tell me how many years you can get.”
“Executed immediately.”
“…”
After a moment of silence, Chen Yu made an ‘OK’ gesture and turned around to walk into the underground garage.
Bang!
After closing the door tightly, he came to the operating table and poked Bahuang Yao’s skin with his finger.
“Hmm. It’s defrosted.”
He took out a white cloth and covered the girl’s ‘concave’ body. Chen Yu lay on the operating table and inserted two needles into the veins on his wrist.
“Phew…”
Taking a deep breath, he pressed the switch of the “No. 1 fake death antidote” and set the time for the “No. 1 fake death poison”. Then, he closed his eyes and waited silently.
One minute.
Three minutes.
Five minutes…
All the Antidote No. 1 was injected.
All kinds of complicated chemical reactions were carried out in Chen Yu’s body. It caused him to gradually enter a ‘dead’ state.
It lasted for about ten minutes.
The No. 1 poison was injected automatically.
In a moment, Chen Yu came back to life…
Opening his eyes, he stood up shakily and looked at the operating table at the side.
The young girl’s body was still lying on the ground.
“No.”
Chen Yu’s heart sank.
“There’s no effect. I can’t trigger the curse of Bahuang Yao…”
After removing the needle and the bottle, he found a second set of pseudo-death poison and repeated the previous operation.
Twenty minutes later.
“No, it’s ineffective.”
After removing the needle, Chen Yu found a third set of poison…
Another twenty minutes later.
“It’s still not working…”
This experiment continued from morning until dusk.
All the ‘suspended animation’ medicine was used once, but there was no sign of Bahuang Yao resurrecting.
“F*ck!”
Crash…
Getting off the bed in a bad temper, Chen Yu kicked the operating table and sent the surrounding medicine flying. His mood was extremely bad.
The facts had proven that the judgement of the curse left behind by Bahuang Yi was very precise.
The probability of him trying to fake his death was zero.
“So…”
“I can only resurrect her if I truly ‘die’…”
With this thought in mind, Chen Yu became even more irritable.
After kicking away the various medicine bottles under his feet, he picked up Bahuang Yao and placed her back into the low-temperature box in the freezing car to turn on the refrigeration.
Then, he walked out of the underground garage expressionlessly.
“Brother Yu, are you done?”
Ma Li, who was sitting in the yard playing cards, turned around when she heard the voice. “Was it comfortable faking your death?”
“It was alright.”
“So, what exactly do you want to do after tormenting yourself for the whole day?”
“I can’t explain it to you clearly.” Chen Yu was unwilling to answer. He walked to Ma Li’s side and changed the topic. “Are those Bahuang people done?”
“Yes, they’re all locked up. There are two who are seriously injured and can’t be saved. They’re dead.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Chen Yu waved his hand and walked out of the Ma family’s manor. “I’ll leave first. Take care of Xiao Yao’s body. Call me if anything happens.”
“Where are you going?” Ma Li stood up and asked.
“The Public Security Bureau.”
He left the wealthy district where Ma Li’s family lived.
Chen Yu hurried to the Public Security Bureau of Qingcheng City.
As he walked, he thought about how to save Bahuang Yao.
But until he arrived at his destination, he couldn’t think of anything.
“The curse…”
“Is it only by learning the technique of Bahuang Yi that I can have a chance to save Bahuang Yao?”
“But even if I can learn it, it will be me, her, her, me…”
“…”
“F*ck! F*ck this dog.”
While cursing, Chen Yu walked into the Public Security Bureau courtyard and bumped into an acquaintance.
“You are… Chen Yu? Are you Chen Yu?”
“Uh.” Chen Yu stopped and sized up the newcomer. “Officer Wang?”
“Yes, it’s me.” Officer Wang adjusted his tie. “But I’m no longer Officer Wang. I’m now Bureau Chief Wang.”
“You? Director?”
“Yes.”
“Are the Qingcheng Public Security going to fail?”
“…If you don’t know how to talk, then let’s break up.”
“Sorry, I don’t have the habit of breaking up, and I don’t like men.”
“…” After a moment of silence, Bureau Chief Wang took out a pair of handcuffs from his waist. “Chen Yu, have you heard of the crime of picking quarrels and causing trouble?”
Chen Yu took out two cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Bureau Chief Wang. “Brother, first of all, Congratulations on your promotion. Then, I didn’t come here today to relax in the police station. I came to look for Bureau Chief Bahuang.”
“Bureau Chief Bahuang?”
“Bahuang Zhen.”
“Oh.” Bureau Chief Wang took Chen Yu’s cigarette and put it to his nose to sniff. “He resigned.”
“When did that happen?”
“A month ago. That’s why I became the Bureau Chief.”
“Alright, I’ll go to his house to look for him.” Chen Yu cupped his hands and turned to leave.
“Wait a minute,” Bureau Chief Wang said.
“Did the Bureau Chief have any orders?”
“No. I just wanted to ask you…” Bureau Chief Wang looked at Chen Yu. “Were you the one who killed the chairman of the Lewei Group back then?”
Lighting up the cigarette, Chen Yu took a deep breath and faintly exhaled. “Who is Lewei?”
“…”
Bureau Chief Wang smiled and waved his hand. “Go.”
“See you later.”
Leaving the police station, Chen Yu once again turned around and headed to the manor of the Bahuang family.
Not long after, he arrived at the door.
Chen Yu raised his head and sized it up.
In the past, this ‘majestic’, ‘profound’, and ‘inviolable’ door in his eyes was now nothing more than a common sight in his eyes.
Bang!
After thinking for a long time, Chen Yu kicked open the door and rushed into the courtyard.
“Doramumu, I’m here to negotiate terms…”
…
Time.
It was like the bathroom in the station. It came and went in a hurry.
In the blink of an eye, it was December.
Qingcheng welcomed the first snowfall after spring this year.
In this one month, everything was as the black-robed man of the Bahuang clan said. Except for Shanghai in the south, the entire divine great land had changed…
Cities, towns, and forces were divided.
Order and law were torn apart cleanly and cleanly.
With the end of the world, whether it was ordinary people or warriors, they had gradually revealed the cruel nature of animals.
Especially after the news of the death of the Bahuang clan had spread, the most humble hope of mankind had disappeared.
A large number of factories had closed down.
The financial system was about to collapse.
Politics, culture, and education were falling apart.
Apart from cigarettes, alcohol, beauties, and firearms… Everything was declining, and everything was collapsing.
However, what made Chen Yu feel even more despair was that all the martial artists and elites in the world seemed to have become ‘impotent’.
The scientists gave up on their research projects.
The professors gave up on studying martial arts.
The ordinary people, regardless of whether they were low-level or high-level, were lazy and depraved, and lost their fighting spirit.
“In any case, if the Beast Tide comes, we will die. Humans will perish sooner or later…”
On the internet and in reality, such words and consciousness filled everyone’s minds.
The entire civilization had completely fallen into a period of great destruction…
Outside the window, it was snowing.
Chen Yu was lying on his bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Opening his eyes, he stared blankly at the glittering snowflakes outside the window. After looking at them carefully for half the night, he finally managed to see two words from every crack.
“Cannibalism.”
“Exotic beasts cannibalism…”
“Cannibalism…”
After a long time, Chen Yu sat up, got off the bed, and pushed open the window. He reached out to touch the pieces of snow that fell into his hands, but they didn’t melt. He didn’t say a word.
“So…”
“This is the real end of the world.”
In his hazy vision, Chen Yu seemed to see a group of familiar Wraiths circling in front of him, arguing and arguing with each other.
(The only lesson that humans have learned from history is that they have not learned from history. No matter what social system, in times of high pressure and despair, without positive growth, there will be bad consequences…)
(The human group has always been in a dilemma between despair and arrogance, there has never been real calm and cool-headedness. This is the fate of human nature…)
(Whether at a low or high point, all human performance is dominated by emotions. Some are decadent, some are brave. Rational thinking is driven out by fear, despair, ecstasy, fanaticism…)
(But…)
(No matter how desperate the environment is, there will always be a light that cuts through the night, and this light will be like a spark on the prairie, burning a new world.)
(This is a true human…)
All of a sudden, the Wraiths in front of him disappeared.
Along with them was the helplessness and frustration that had accumulated in Chen Yu’s body for a long time.
Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath. “There will always be a ray of light that cuts through the night…”
“Burning to create a new…”
“…”
Unknowingly, the snow stopped.
Chen Yu returned to his room and lay on the bed. After closing his eyes for a while, he fell asleep.
He slept exceptionally peacefully.
He slept exceptionally soundly…
The next day.
Chen Yu packed his personal belongings early. He carried the BB motherboard and longsword on his back, a katana hung at his waist, and his revolver was stuffed into his holster.
Fully armed, he walked into the living room.
“Where are you going?”
In the living room, Chen Siwen, who was watching TV with Mother Chen, immediately stood up and looked Chen Yu up and down. “Leaving again?”
“I’m going to run away from home and save the entire human race.” Chen Yu was serious.
Chen Siwen: “…Don’t go. Leave a way out for the human race.”
[Psychological damage received: Spirit +5]
“I realized that I can’t get along with an old woman like you.” Chen Yu carried his backpack and turned around to leave.
“Stop!”
Chen Siwen moved even faster. She spread out her arms to block in front of Chen Yu. “Xiao Yu, where are you going? It’s so chaotic outside.”
“I’m not going far. I’m going to take a look around our Qingcheng Alien Realm.”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.”
“That’s good.” Chen Siwen nodded. “I’ll go with you. Otherwise, Mom won’t be at ease.”
On the sofa, Mother Chen said weakly, “Siwen, if you go out with your brother… I won’t be at ease…”
Chen Siwen: “…”
Mother Chen: “How much trouble are you going to cause?”
Chen Siwen: “That’s the end of the introduction. You can take care of yourself in the future.”
Hearing that, Mother Chen was delighted. “Really?”
Chen Siwen: “…”
After a long silence, Chen Siwen rushed into her room and took out a backpack. She was fully armed.
Chen Yu: “Sis, where are you going?”
“I’m going to run away from home and save the entire human race.”
Chen Yu said, “…Don’t go. Leave a way out for the human race.”
…
In the end, his ‘arm’ couldn’t beat her ‘thigh’.
Half an hour later, Chen Siwen brought Chen Yu, who was ‘bruised and swollen,’ to the Alien Realm Hall of Qingcheng City.
There was no one in the hall.
Other than a waiter sleeping soundly in front of the ticket counter, there was only a rusted plaque in the empty hall.
[Welcome to the 341B dimensional door.]
“Is there no one here?” Chen Yu was absent-minded.
“I came in once a while ago.” Chen Siwen spread her hands. “It was very bleak back then, but at least it wasn’t as bleak as it is now. It feels like we’re going to die.”
Scratching his ears, Chen Yu walked to the ticket counter and knocked on the table. “Hello?”
“…Hmm?” The waiter opened his eyes in a daze. “Ah?”
“Can we still enter the alien land?”
“Oh… Yes, go ahead.”
“Don’t you need to buy a ticket?”
“No.” The waiter yawned and leaned on the table again.
“Who is in charge of this alien land now?” Chen Yu asked.
“…No one…” The waiter was half-asleep and unclear.
“What about the government?”
“No… There’s no one…”
Hearing this, Chen Yu and Chen Siwen looked at each other.
“Thank you.”
Waving his hand, Chen Yu brought Chen Siwen up the escalator and entered the second floor of the hall.
The originally grand second floor was now in a mess.
Broken tiles, empty bottles that were covered in dust, mottled walls…
The aura of destruction and ruin assaulted their faces.
The two of them walked silently to the spacetime door.
Chen Yu closed his eyes and opened his arms. He quietly felt the blood in his body being pulled by the suction force of the spacetime door.
After a long while, he said, “The country breaks the mountains and rivers.”
“The country breaks?” Chen Siwen raised her eyebrows. “Where is the mountain?”
Opening his eyes, the corners of Chen Yu’s mouth curled up. He extended his index finger and pointed at his chest. “The mountain is here.”
“Tsk tsk.”
