Chapter 307: Changling Alien Realm (5)
Fresh blood dyed the snow red.
It spread into a puddle beneath Duan Ye.
He bent down and picked up the pistol that was still ‘smoking’. He was silent and wanted to say something but stopped.
“You’re crippled,” Bahuang Yi said.
“It’s just a flesh wound.”
“The bullet hit the center of your thigh.”
“The middle of my thigh bone is empty.” Duan Ye did not show any signs of weakness.
“You…” Bahuang Yi hesitated for a rare moment. After a while, he said, “You can come back.”
“Come back?” Duan Ye raised his eyebrows.
“I can return to the shore.”
“I can’t go back.”
“Okay.” Bahuang Yi nodded. “I can help you with the wanted poster.”
“You’re already dead. How can it work?”
“The real me is not dead.”
“I mean…” Duan Ye’s killing intent was overflowing. He leaned forward and stared at Bahuang Yi without blinking. “The real you is dead. How can you still function?”
“…” Bahuang Yi was silent. “What do you mean?”
“Don’t you understand? Of course I’m going to kill you again.”
Pa!
Duan Ye pressed his palms together and exploded with energy. “Do you think I’ll let you go? Do you think that I can’t kill you without Brother Yu’s help? Do you think that I’m at a disadvantage just because I’m crippled?!”
Bahuang Yi’s body subconsciously straightened as he prepared himself to resist.
The boiling force gradually dyed Duan Ye’s black pupils white, and his face grew even more savage as he said, “You are… you’re absolutely right.”
Rip!
With that, Duan Ye opened his arms and tore through space. Dragging his crippled leg, he jumped in and disappeared…
“…”
The north wind, mixed with snowflakes, once again soared into the air.
Only Bahuang Yi was left in the alien realm square.
Sou!
Not long after, Jill appeared out of thin air. He took off the Law Enforcer mask on his face and asked with great interest, “He ran away?”
“He ran away.”
“Why didn’t you chase after him?”
“Why did you chase after him?”
“I can…” He pulled out a cigar and lit it carefully before stuffing it into his mouth. Jill patted Bahuang Yi’s shoulder and said, “I’ve told you before that none of the three people from Year 1 Class 2 are in a normal state of mind. Now that I’ve realized it, you’re pretty much the same.”
Turning his head, he took a deep look at the spot where Duan Ye had disappeared. Bahuang Yi asked in a deep voice, “Have you settled things over there?”
“Settled.”
“Where’s the captain?”
“She’s interrogating the captives.”
“How could it be so fast?” Bahuang Yi was puzzled.
“Because the president of the Fair Association isn’t here. He seems to have entered an alien realm. The ones left outside are just a bunch of small fries.”
“Then we have to go back to support Changling City later, right?”
“Yes.” Jill exhaled a mouthful of thick smoke. “But we have to leave someone here to guard against the other forces of the Fair Association. Especially the president of the Fair Association.”
“Apart from that, we have to wait for Chen Yu to come out.”
“Chen Yu?” Jill was stunned. “Chen Yu is here?”
“He’s here.” Bahuang Yi turned around and looked at the distorted dimensional door. “He entered the alien realm.”
“He entered?” Jill’s pupils contracted. “He’s only Level 2, right? Is he courting death by going in?”
“There should be some way to isolate the damage. It’s impossible for him to commit suicide.”
“There’s Wood Powder inside. How do we isolate it?”
“For example, spatial martial arts.” Bahuang Yi seemed to be deep in thought. “I remember that he seems to have a martial technique that allows him to teleport. In that case, it’s normal for him to control other spatial powers.”
“So…” Jill walked to the spacetime door and felt the attraction coming from the other side. “Other than guarding the entrance, we still have to wait for Chen Yu to come out and bring him back?”
“Yes.” Nodding, Bahuang Yi adjusted his mask. “I’ll stay here. You and the captain will support Changling City.”
“No.” Jill flicked his cigar. He flatly refused. “Before we set off, the principal has repeatedly emphasized that you cannot leave the captain’s vicinity. Moreover, there must be many Fair Association members who are collecting Wood Conversion Powder in the alien relam, especially their president. It’s too dangerous for you to stay. You two go, I’ll stay.”
“You don’t understand Chen Yu, so you might not be able to control him.”
“Bullsh*t.” Jill sneered. “I’m a Level 6 big shot, but I can’t control a Level 2?”
“He’s not an ordinary Level 2.”
“I don’t care if he’s Level 3.”
Bahuang Yi: “…”
“If I can’t handle a little Chen Yu, I’ll eat sh(t while standing on my head.”
“…Alright, good luck.”
Bahuang Yi turned around and left.
Jill: “Where are you going?”
Bahuang Yi: “I’m looking for sh*t for you.”
Jill: “…”
…
[Coming into contact with an unknown substance.]
[Body produces a malignant chemical reaction: Lignification -43]
[Lignification -52; -48; -45…]
The world was a blur.
The dense fog blocked his vision.
Chen Yu slowly opened his eyes. He listened to the electronic synthesized sound that echoed in his ears while he observed the world inside the Changling Alien Realm.
Only then did he realize that the drifting fog was actually layers of Wood Powder.
Reaching out and grabbing a piece, Chen Yu fiddled with it carefully. “With such a dense amount, even an ordinary Level 5 martial artist wouldn’t be able to withstand it, right?”
“Someone’s coming in?”
“I heard it too. Go and take a look.”
Along with a wave of muffled discussions, two figures swayed over from afar.
“The Fair Association…”
Chen Yu returned to his senses and pulled out a sharp dagger. Like a phantom, he disappeared on the spot. He hid in the branches and leaves of a giant tree.
His strong physique allowed him to have excellent mobility without the need for explosive force.
A minute later, two figures walked over to check the space-time portal in front of them.
They were both wearing thick protective clothing and carrying heavy oxygen tubes on their backs. In each other’s hands, they were dragging a large wooden barrel filled with Wood Powder.
“Hmm? Where are they?”
“I heard it just now. Someone came in.”
“I heard it too…”
Pfft —
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yu suddenly jumped down from the sky. He quickly waved his dagger and instantly cut open the protective clothing of the two of them.
Hiss —
The gas leaked out.
Before the two of them could struggle, the Wood Powder that was floating in the air seeped into the gaps. In an instant, the two of them were completely turned into wood.
Plop.
They fell to the ground and two rings of powder flew up.
Whoosh.
After blowing at the dust that lingered in front of him, Chen Yu bent down and removed their protective suit. After checking the situation of the two of them, he quickened his pace and walked deeper into the alien realm.
It was different from the alien realm of Qingcheng and Bodhi Island.
The biggest feeling Chen Yu had when he entered this alien realm of Changling was that the vegetation was lush.
Although he was clearly in an area that was similar to a ‘plain’, the density of the trees was actually a little more than that of a mountain forest.
Moreover, there were a few large white flowers blooming at the crown of all the trees.
Layers of dense Wood Powder were released from the stamens of these flowers.
They seemed to be breathing.
What they inhaled was gas.
What they exhaled was powder…
In the ‘fog’, Chen Yu could occasionally see the members of the Fair Association, but he ignored them and only focused on running.
The purpose of his trip was to collect ‘tree sap’.
Killing the enemy was just a waste of time.
And such a treasure that could restore the wooden state only existed in the depths of the Changling Alien Realm.
Ten minutes.
Thirty minutes.
An hour…
As time passed, it passed quickly.
Chen Yu could no longer see any human figures.
Between heaven and earth, it was as if only the Wood Powder was left.
Layers upon layers, covering the sky and the sun.
[The body produces a malignant chemical reaction: Lignification -107]
[Lignification -114; -125…]
The number that suddenly ‘increased’ made Chen Yu stop on the spot, looking left and right.
At this moment, he realized.
The surrounding Wood Powder had gradually turned from white to red.
Looking ahead, it was a dark red world.
Looking back, it was still a hazy white…
It turned out that he was standing on the dividing line between red and white.
Reaching out and grabbing a ball of red powder, Chen Yu was deep in thought.
“This is the Wood Powder that can turn Level 5 wood into wood…”
Clap, clap!
After cleaning his hands, he continued to speed up his pace. At the same time, he widened his eyes and searched for the possible ‘fluorescent green tree’.
Before long, he had successfully found his target!
A look of joy flashed across Chen Yu’s eyes. He took three steps and ran two steps. In a few flashes, he had already arrived in front of his target and circled around it excitedly.
This was a small sapling that was less than half a meter tall, and its entire body was emitting a green glow.
It seemed to be out of place under the encirclement of so many plants.
Holding his breath, Chen Yu tentatively reached out his hand and caressed the tender shoots of the sapling.
A refreshing chill instantly spread through his heart.
It spread through his skin and tissues, engulfing his entire body.
Hiss…
The icy Chen Yu could not help but shiver.
“This thing is a little interesting.”
Rubbing his hands, Chen Yu focused his eyes and observed. To his surprise, he saw two insects crawling on the surface of the sapling.
There were also many creatures that looked like ants under the sapling’s ‘feet’.
The fluorescent light it emitted prevented the Wood Powder from entering, leaving these insects with a chance of survival.
Squatting down, Chen Yu stared at the ‘colony of ants’ for a long time. He picked up an ant and sent it to the area where the dust was fluttering.
The originally wriggling insect body immediately turned into a piece of wood the size of a grain of rice.
Narrowing his eyes, Chen Yu thought for a moment and sent the wood-turning ant back to the ‘fluorescent green tree.’
Not long after, the ant was ‘alive’ again…
“Amazing…”
Scratching his ear, he took out a dagger and used the sharp blade to gently cut open the surface of the sapling. A wisp of green juice instantly flowed from the wound.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Yu used his finger to lightly touch a drop of liquid.
[Purified by karma: Lignification +103]
Ka…
Ka ka ka ka…
Chen Yu’s entire right hand immediately turned into dried wood.
Chen Yu’s spirit shook as he rolled backward and pulled his body out of the fluorescent tree.
[Lignification -96]
[Lignification -105; -112…]
Under the baptism of the Wood Powder, the wooden palm was restored.
Chen Yu subconsciously opened, closed, opened, and closed his five fingers. Chen Yu was interested.
“This thing is a little more effective than I imagined.”
After wiping off the juice on the blade, he put away the dagger and went deeper into the tree.
The tree juice in a small sapling was far from enough.
With his condition, he needed at least a bucket…
However, after walking for less than five minutes, Chen Yu stopped.
It was not because he found a bigger ‘fluorescent tree.’
It was because a figure stood in front of him, blocking his path.
The figure had his back facing Chen Yu, and his back was straight. He said calmly, “You’re here?”
Chen Yu: “…I’m here.”
“Why are you only here now?”
“There was a traffic jam on the road.”
The figure slowly turned around. “Did you bring your things… Hmm? Who are you?”
Chen Yu flicked his bangs. “Who are you looking for?”
“I’m looking for the President of the Fair Association.”
The figure walked in step by step and observed Chen Yu from head to toe. He cupped his hands together cautiously. “May I ask, who are you… ?”
Judging from his attitude, Chen Yu knew that the other party must think that he was a big shot.
After all, to be able to enter the Changling Alien Realm so far without wearing a protective suit, logically speaking, he must be at least a Level 6 or Level 7 powerhouse.
“May I ask who you are?” Chen Yu imitated the same gesture and cupped his hands, asking in return.
“I’m the Vice President of the Truth Research Foundation, Yang Tan.”
“Oh, I’ve heard a lot about you!” Chen Yu’s expression was solemn as he bowed slightly. “I’m the Vice President of the Fair Association, Duan Ye.”
“Oh oh!” Yang Tan came to a realization and cupped his hands repeatedly. “I’ve heard a lot about you! I’ve heard a lot about you!”
“You’re too polite.” Chen Yu smiled and waved his hand. He was puzzled. ‘Who’s Yang Tan?’
“You are.” Yang Tan also smiled and waved his hand. He was even more puzzled. ‘Who’s Duan Ye?’
Both of them had their own thoughts and exchanged pleasantries.
Yang Tan was the first to get to the main topic. “Vice President Duan, may I ask…”
Chen Yu said, “You can just call me Bring the Fish (Dai Yu).”
“Oh, oh, Mr. Bring the Fish. Please… Eh? Bring the Fish?”
“Yes, my nickname. President Yang doesn’t need to care about the details. What do you want to say?”
“Ah… I… I want to ask, the President of your Association has arranged to meet me here. I’ve waited for a day and a night. Why hasn’t he appeared yet?”
In an instant, Chen Yu vaguely guessed something. He narrowed his eyes and said, “Are you talking about our President?”
“Yes.”
“His large intestine is dry.”
Yang Tan: “?”
“The President asked me to pass on a message to you.” Chen Yu pointed to the east. “The ‘thing’ that you want has been put away for you.”
“It’s been put away?” Yang Tan’s body trembled slightly. He turned his head and looked in the direction that Chen Yu pointed.
“Yes.” Chen Yu nodded. Chen Yu said nonsense, “As long as you keep going east and keep going, you will encounter a big green tree that is 30 meters tall. Then, you will go south until you meet a public toilet. In the fifth open door of the men’s toilet, you will be able to find the thing that you want by flipping open the toilet lid.”
Yang Tan: “???”
“President Yang.” Chen Yu cupped his fists and bowed. “The message has been passed on. I still have other tasks, so I’ll take my leave first.”
“Ah… that… restroom…” Yang Tan hesitated and didn’t know how to say it. “Here… Why is there a restroom?”
Chen Yu waved his hand and left directly. He walked further and further away. “You’ll naturally understand when you get there.”
Looking at Chen Yu’s departing back, Yang Tan frowned.
“Keep heading east and then south…”
“So mysterious. What is he trying to do?”
Muttering, Yang Tan turned around and walked towards the east…
…
About two hours later.
A figure in a black robe walked over and stood where Yang Tan had stood before, looking around.
“Brother Yang?”
“You didn’t come?”
“Is Brother Yang here?”
“I’m sorry, I led my subordinates to collect the ‘green juice’ just now and am a little late. Brother Yang won’t be angry, right?”
“Brother Yang?”
“Hello??”
…
At the same time.
After two hours of hurried travel, Chen Yu finally arrived at a place that was ‘deep’ enough.
Looking ahead, there were giant trees that were emitting green light!
The dense growth actually blocked all the flying Wood Powder nearby.
“This place is enough.”
Rubbing his hands in delight, Chen Yu pulled open his backpack and took out a bunch of water bags from it. Then, he walked into it.
However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
Hu hu —
The earth shook.
The sky changed color…
