Chapter 37: Who is the Girl?

Chu Yunsheng told Yu Xiaohai that if he didn't return within an hour, he shouldn't wait for him.

His only reliance was the defensive capability of the battle armor, hoping it could withstand the frenzied attacks of the five red-armored bugs.

The light outside was very dim, and Yu Xiaohai on the fifth floor couldn't possibly see the red-armored bugs clearly. Chu Yunsheng had to provide a light source.

However, the moment Chu Yunsheng turned on the flashlight, it would signal the red-armored bugs to attack, which would come like a storm.

Chu Yunsheng took three deep breaths, turned on the flashlight tied to his shoulder, and leaped from the corner of the wall, landing on the roof of a nearby car.

The red-armored bugs immediately spotted him and pounced without hesitation. Chu Yunsheng roared, both to boost his own courage and to alert Yu Xiaohai upstairs.

The Qianbi Sword struck one of the red-armored bugs, and the other four immediately surrounded him, raising their blade-like legs to slash down fiercely. The battle armor emitted a grating sound.

Even with the protection of the battle armor, facing the slashing attacks of four red-armored bugs at once, Chu Yunsheng's body shook violently, causing him great pain. Seeing a large pincer about to grab him, he didn't hesitate and jumped over the red-armored bug's head.

At this moment, Chu Yunsheng felt that the long-awaited Ice Arrow had arrived, quickly freezing one of the red-armored bugs. He had held on for so long to stabilize the bugs so that Yu Xiaohai could shoot this arrow.

Having succeeded, Chu Yunsheng immediately implemented his escape plan, but the prerequisite was to completely attract the three bugs to chase him, preventing Yu Xiaohai from being exposed. At this point, Yu Xiaohai would be dead if the three bugs found him!

The battle armor was damaged in some places due to the fierce attacks of the four red-armored bugs. However, Chu Yunsheng couldn't afford to worry about it now. He sprinted down the street at high speed, with three powerful red-armored bugs leaping behind him.

The human-bug race officially began!

Chu Yunsheng, taking advantage of his much smaller size compared to the red-armored bugs, weaved through the cars, sometimes even entering buildings and breaking through doors!

The three red-armored bugs followed closely, seemingly taking a great interest in Chu Yunsheng. They didn't stop chasing him even when they encountered two groups of humans along the way.

Of course, Chu Yunsheng and the bugs, moving like the wind, frightened these two groups of people, who turned and ran, disappearing without a trace.

Following the original plan, Chu Yunsheng gradually led the bugs far away, arriving at the building where he had set up the rope. He rushed up at a speed like a gale, with the three bugs hot on his heels.

Panting heavily, Chu Yunsheng leaped onto the rooftop, with the three bugs right behind him. One of the bugs' pincers almost caught his buttocks!

He rolled on the ground, grabbed the rope loosely wrapped around the corner pillar, and without a second thought, jumped down!

Passing between two buildings, Chu Yunsheng crashed through the glass of the opposite building and rushed inside.

The three bugs stood on the opposite rooftop, roaring wildly, seemingly unwilling to give up.

Chu Yunsheng believed in the intelligence of the bugs. From the first time he saw them climb buildings, he knew these creatures were not stupid. Even though he had temporarily isolated the bugs, he didn't dare to be complacent and quickly descended the stairs of the building.

The bugs were indeed very smart, testing the exterior walls as they climbed down. Although their speed was not as fast as leaping across the street, Chu Yunsheng didn't dare to be careless. Taking advantage of the bugs' descent, he quickly escaped under the cover of darkness.

He didn't know if the bugs would turn back, but he had to return. He had gone through so much trouble just for the two red-armored bug corpses.

After the red-armored bugs died, the yuan qi in their bodies would slowly dissipate. So, Chu Yunsheng still accelerated his weary legs, making a circle and returning to the commercial street.

Two bugs, one frozen and not yet thawed, the other killed by Chu Yunsheng, lay on the roadside. He quickly chopped off the head of the frozen red-armored bug with the Qianbi Sword and stored the two red-armored bug corpses in the Wu Na Fu.

He was so tense that Chu Yunsheng didn't even have a chance to catch his breath. He immediately climbed to the fifth floor where Yu Xiaohai was, and he needed to make a Yuan Absorption Talisman right away.

He had originally planned to make it before leaving, but if he had done so, he would have only had a little more than one unit of yuan qi left. After killing one bug, if anything unexpected happened on the escape route, he would be dead!

For safety, Chu Yunsheng chose the most conservative approach. He always believed that preserving his life was the most important thing.

From downstairs, he saw two figures through the night vision device and became a bit worried.

So, he carefully climbed to the fifth floor. This place used to be a mobile phone city, with counters scattered around. As soon as Chu Yunsheng entered, he heard Yu Xiaohai ask nervously, "Who is it?"

Hearing his voice, Chu Yunsheng felt much more relieved and replied, "It's me!"

Yu Xiaohai walked out of the darkness, turned on a weak flashlight, and looked at Chu Yunsheng, whose battle armor was somewhat damaged. He asked with concern, "Are you hurt?"

Chu Yunsheng shook his head and said, "No, it's fine. We need to move to a new place right away."

Yu Xiaohai seemed to hesitate for a moment and said hesitantly, "Brother Chu, that girl is following us again!"

Chu Yunsheng was puzzled and asked, "Which girl?"

Yu Xiaohai explained helplessly, "The one we accidentally saved!"

Chu Yunsheng was stunned and asked, "How did she follow us? What does she want?"

Yu Xiaohai suddenly blinked and said mysteriously, "Let's not talk about that. Do you know who she is?"

Chu Yunsheng didn't have time to fool around and said impatiently, "Speak up!"

Yu Xiaohai went in and pulled the girl out, holding a poster. He unfolded it and placed it next to the girl, excitedly saying, "Take a look."

Chu Yunsheng's flashlight had been destroyed by the bugs, so he picked up Yu Xiaohai's flashlight and took a quick look: "2012 New Year's Sci-Fi Blockbuster: The Dark Age? What nonsense is this?"

Yu Xiaohai pointed to the person on the poster and said to the girl, "Take a look."

Chu Yunsheng nodded and said, "She does look quite similar." He immediately added, "What are you trying to say? Spit it out, we don't have much time!"

Yu Xiaohai sighed in frustration, "Chu Yunsheng, this girl is Lin Shuiyao. Haven't you figured it out yet?"

Chu Yunsheng frowned and asked, "Who is Lin Shuiyao? Your new girlfriend?"
