The Demon Swordsman 3
Ch. 146 - A Mission
Days passed without a sense of security, the occasional infected Southeast Campground managed to get out of the way of the pine forest. Many times they lost friends and family. Yu had said they would leave the base because the situation there was no longer as comfortable and all-sufficient.
Meanwhile Xin Chen and Lang ordered Yu to go to the house of an expert who was good at assembling bombs, located quite far away, about a mile or less from the Southeast Campground. Along the way Xin Chen only found infected and various other types that had mutated.
He stopped jumping on the roof, watching for quite a long time at the height. Faintly his ears could hear the sound of a fairly swift flow of water, but the area was overrun by a herd of infected who were quite a lot.
Xin Chen went down with Lang, using a long sword and directly hit the infected vital parts one by one. There were several types of infected that were close to it, but so far Xin Chen had known quite a lot about his enemy. He was able to fight without getting hurt.
Blood from the infected neck was still splashing on the ground, Lang was able to read what Xin Chen was now thinking and directly dug into the ground where the spring water source sounded.
A few minutes of dredging, it was true that a large splash spilled upwards, raining down on Lang instantly. Xin Chen almost laughed to see Lang's face, if the wolf did not pay attention to its prestige it might have closed the ground again.
"Such times as everyone needs water and food." Xin Chen spoke up afterwards, looked around and found a group of men with masks and hooded clothes watching them. Seemed hesitant to advance, moreover seeing Xin Chen conquer the infected alone.
"Oi! Come here!"
Dozens of people stared at each other. They come from a group of Defectors who like to make trouble. From their pale, thin-looking faces, those people must have run out of food and drink in their place. Before long one of them advanced because the others did not dare, followed by his other friend hesitantly.
"What?" That voice sounded sniffy. Xin Chen said. "This place is safe and there's water here, just use this water for your needs."
"What?"
They wonder at each other.
"How could you give up the source of life in the midst of such a precarious situation? You know, just this time I saw someone like you ... You're not setting us up, are you?"
"I have to go again after this, if you need it just take it. There is no property in it. But if any other group asks for this water, share it with them."
Xin Chen and Lang were about to rush over, the person behind him grew increasingly confused. Xin Chen's face was never seen by them. Plus his clothes were not the official attire that a group like the Central Military Faction or the people from the Night Protector had.
"Wait a minute!" The one who stood at the front half shouted, "Your name, who?"
Xin Chen turned around.
"Chen. Just call me that."
"Your blue eyes ... I feel like I've heard of someone with a last name and blue eyes like that! You must be the second son of the Demon Sword, huh? I've been so sure since I saw you fight against that infection!" His other friend finally made a sound. Surprised, his other friends come into conflict with each other.
Xin Chen chuckled softly looking at the group of Defectors. It is described as very sadistic and sadistic. Those in front of him were now nothing more than ordinary humans who were struggling to live.
Somehow, the three groups that should be shoulder to shoulder can be hostile to each other. It seemed like this had to do with what Luo Li had said, about reconciling the crisis-ridden Wei Empire. Not only can one reconcile one group, but also be a peacemaker who can unite these three groups together.
"Haha! Perhaps, he was busy with his business. We-we just left him stranded."
Other laws cover. "Hey, buddy. Whatever your purpose here is, I'm sure you must be well-intentioned. Ah yeah, if we tell people about you, we're okay?"
"Origin don't you whisper to the researchers or the people of this Imperial government."
Their farewell ended with laughter, Xin Chen immediately set off. Chasing the time that was lost. There are several points that people can use to meet their needs, but unfortunately the surrounding is filled by infection. Xin Chen annihilated as much as he could. Opened dozens of places that were directly visited by people.
Gardens, water sources, manual air power sources, or other public places that can hardly be visited because of the large number of infected. Many are ungrateful. Xin Chen realized he was late, the night had come and the journey had taken a very long time.
Lang decided to bring Xin Chen along, not letting the human walk alone because he would definitely stop if he saw something he could do. He doesn't blame it, but at least think about what he's owed.
When they arrived at the bomb-making house, they were immediately greeted by an old man who looked completely unfriendly, his mouth nagging from a distance and the stick in his hand repeatedly knocked on the ground. He lived in a hilly area, rather high up from the city and was arguably quite safe.
One punch landed on Xin Chen's hand when it arrived.
"How long is it?!"
"Oh," ringist Xin Chen. No half-hearted blow, can get to the afterlife of his pain. Sure enough, his hands were instantly blue.
"I waited for you until my waist shifted to the skull. Very long! Ah, come on, just piss off. Bring this safely to the destination!"
The powerful thump on the door leaf shrill in the ears, Xin Chen closed his eyes.
"There are human types. Good thing patience." He muttered while carrying a black parcel, tying it to Lang's neck.
"What did you say?!" Suddenly the door opened again, Xin Chen rushed off with Lang.
"I said we were saying goodbye! Bye bye!"
Returning to the Southeast Campground when the night had gone down was a bad decision. It should have reached the Southeast Campground this afternoon with the running speed they had. Tomorrow is the day when it all starts. He had heard that perhaps the Defenders would take advantage of this opportunity to attack several places. Plus, the Night Protector was about to blow up the main headquarters of the Central Military Faction that was focusing on their search for the key to the B-1 Laboratory.
Xin Chen stared at the faded night sky in the Wei Empire. Not even birds can be seen passing up there. A real place full of despair, misery, torment.
When he saw the people passing by, he also could not bear to let them fight alone. There must be a change in this place, even though he is not a part of them but these people are innocent human beings. Xin Chen would still defend them.
And if possible, he wanted to take down the people who created this misery.
