Chapter 134 – Cry For Help

This trip was extremely dangerous, which was why Cheng Yang didn’t mention the purpose of the trip to Niu Bing, nor disclose the plan to others.

Niu Bing was an honest and straightforward person. As long as he could bring him out, it was easy to persuade him. But if Yu Kai or someone else knew about this information, they would certainly prevent him from going out. At worst, they would strongly request he travel with them.

However, Cheng Yang didn’t intend to bring many people on this trip. If there were too many people, he might not be able to protect them. And secondly, there was no need to bring a lot of people. If it wasn’t necessary to bring Niu Bing and Liu Xiyue along, Cheng Yang really wanted to go alone.

According to Cheng Yang’s arrangement, the two field stations around Yi Cheng were to be occupy by Niu Bing and Liu Xiyue. Niu Bing was currently the most powerful summoner in Luo Feng Village. After he was upgraded to high-order summoner’s apprentice, his summoned beast would become more formidable. As a meat tank that had no fear of death, its role in clearing certain instances was enormous. As for Liu Xiyue, with her bug-like talents, it was pretty self-explanatory. If she couldn’t receive the qualifications to be the focus of nurturing, the rest of people in Luo Feng Village would have no value in training.

Regarding saving the common people of Yi Cheng that Cheng Yang spoke of, it was only a matter of convenient. If he could really save some people and let them successfully transferred, and then defend a place, it was also a good deed. If the place was unable to resist, Cheng Yang has no means to help them. After all, newly transferred professions was difficult to resist a group of enchanted beasts. Not to mention that there were now a lot of first medium-order enchanted beasts mixed in the groups.

Cheng Yang had also considered sending some professions from Luo Feng Village to help Yi Cheng developed smoothly. However, the problems with Xiangcheng City has not been solved yet. If the personnel was dispersed, once problem arises there would be a shortage of staff in the village.

Yi Cheng was roughly 50 kilometers away from Xiangcheng City, and about 30 kilometers away from the clearing area of Luo Feng Village. If the citizens of Yi Cheng could successful transferred and gained a firm foothold in the early period, perhaps after Luo Feng Village upgrade they could provide assistance for Yi Cheng.

In his previous lifetime, it was only after Yuan Jianze had occupied Luo Feng Village for four months did Yuan Jianze began to send people to explore the surroundings. However, the first few explorations ended with the professions returning in utter defeats due to the fixed quantity of second-order enchanted beasts that existed in this forest that has yet to be clear. At that time, the strongest profession in Luo Feng Village was still at high-order apprentice. When confronted with second-order enchanted beasts, the results could be easily imagined. Fortunately, the number of expert on the human’s side also gradually increased in number. This was the only way they were able to smoothly smash through the uninhabited region between Xiangcheng City and Yi Cheng, and shortly afterwards discovered the two field stations.

No one knows whether these second-order enchanted beasts were present since the beginning or evolve later on, but when the explorers found them, they were already in the second-order.

At first, Cheng Yang was also afraid of crossing this no man’s land. With his current strength, he could barely fight against a second-order enchanted beast, let alone a group. If he tried to fight against a group, he was just looking for abuse.

Fortunately, he obtained a rather special item yesterday. It was the Bone Devouring Bead!

This is where his confidence lies. Once he was in danger, he could instantly raise the level of the Bone Devouring Bead to level 3. That way, even if he was faced with an enchanted beast in the second-early order, it would only takes two seconds to decimate the other side. Even if he was surrounded by a group of second-early order enchanted beasts, it was impossible for them to kill him as he could use the Bone Devouring Ants as meat-tanks and cannon fodders in case he need to escape.

Of course if it wasn’t absolutely necessary, Cheng Yang doesn’t intend to raise the level of the Bone Devouring Bead for the time being. After all, this item consume massive amount of power value.

At this time, Niu Bing and Liu Xiyue no longer say anything. Now that they’re here, could they accept just turning back? Besides, each matter that Cheng Yang had handled until now has been meticulously planned and acted out upon. Thus, their confidence in Cheng Yang has gradually grown to a high height, which allows them to ignore the potential dangers.

When Cheng Yang cautiously walked forward. all of a sudden his back tingled as if gazed by a poisonous snake.

Following the intangible feeling, Cheng Yang looked back.

Through the branches and leaves on the trees, Cheng Yang saw the mountain ridge two to three kilometers behind his rear. If Cheng Yang remember correctly, that mountain ridge should be the location of the Beastfolk camp.

“What’s wrong?” Liu Xiyue was quick to discover the serious expression on Cheng Yang’s face, and asked with concern.

Cheng Yang retracted his gaze and shook his head, “It’s nothing. No need for you to turn to look.”

Even though Liu Xiyue didn’t believe him, but after turning around and finding nothing suspicious, she also stopped paying attention to the matter. But Niu Bing was different. He knew the direction Cheng Yang just looked towards was precisely the Beastfolk camp.

At that time, he was the very first person to discover this Beastfolk camp. He clearly remember Cheng Yang talking about the Beastfolk camp in a cautious and prudent tone. As such, ever since then he has always kept the Beastfolk camp deeply in mind.

Seeing that Cheng Yang didn’t want to speak of the matter, Niu Bing also kept his mouth shut. However, his worries concerning the camp grew deeper. He knew just how strong Cheng Yang was. Since this Beastfolk camp could make Cheng Yang attached such great importance to it, he knew there was nothing he could do but to place his trust in Cheng Yang.

Obviously, Cheng Yang couldn’t see the specific situation on the mountain ridge, but he was sure that something on top was paying close attention to this side just now. Although he wasn’t sure whether the other side was looking at him, Cheng Yang dared not relax his vigilance.

In the previous lifetime, the Beastfolk camp was classified as an unsolved mystery. In this lifetime, let him be the one to uncover this mystery! Cheng Yang secretly set this as a goal in his heart.

Putting the matter concerning the Beastfolk camp aside, Cheng Yang continue to advance with the two others.

The purpose of this time wasn’t the monsters in the uncleared area, but to hurry on forward. Therefore, unless it was an unavoidable confrontation, Cheng Yang and other would try not to attack the enchanted beasts and think of ways to go around them.

Due to the number of enchanted beasts living in groups becoming higher, sights of scattered enchanted beasts were relatively rare. This was a great convenience for Cheng Yang and the rest. If they were to have done this at the beginning of the apocalypse, they would have needed to kill throughout the entire journey.

Sneaking their way forward and coupled with having an assassination expert like Liu Xiyue by their side, they didn’t encounter too much trouble. As for Niu Bing, he was basically a sideline supporter. Unless they met a group of enchanted beasts, he would have no chance to even make a move.

Niu Bing was extremely depressed. He was, after all, also a person from the first batch of people to have transfer but looking at this situation, perhaps his fighting capability was weaker than Liu Xiyue by a block. Even if it was head-on, he couldn’t beat the other side. Who let Liu Xiyue’s equipment be so abnormal? His attack power was definitely not comparable to her.

Before Niu Bing had heard of Liu Xiyue’s powerful talent and now seeing an enchanted beast’s leader in the first late-order silently died by her hands, he still felt a cold chill shoot up his back. It’s most likely that apart from Cheng Yang, no one could instant-kill enchanted beasts in the first late-order.

Cheng Yang wasn’t at all surprised by this. Liu Xiyue’s strength was strong, but her attributes was extremely unbalanced. The attack power was high, but the defense, health, mana, and other attributes weren’t strengthen at all. All her equipment were entirely tilted towards attack power.

At the moment, the shortcoming of this kind of build has not manifested, but wait until later ranks and when various professions appears branch occupations. At that time, each profession would be able to add a bit of points to their own attributes, and the pros and cons of Liu Xiyue’s extreme build would appear more and more clear.

An hour has passed by with the crowd marching seven to eight kilometers into the forest. This kind of speed was fast before the end, but after, it was a bit slower than walking. At the moment, they were merely randomly wandering in the forest, so it was very good to be able to achieve this speed.

The surrounding terrain of Xiangcheng City used to be filled with shallow hills. After the earthquake that started the apocalypse occurred, this area became very strange whether it’s plains or endless mountain ridges. Even though these mountain ridges weren’t high, many were extremely steep, and cliffs could be seen everywhere. It could be said that after the earthquake, the original landscape has completely vanished. Relying on memory to find Yi Cheng was very difficult.

Fortunately, Cheng Yang has visited Yi Cheng in his previous lifetime. After all, a field station in Yi Cheng surroundings was an affiliated station to Luo Feng Village at the time. Therefore, he basically was able to remember the route.

“Go through the gully in front.” Cheng Yang pointed to the the three to four meter gap sandwiched between two peaks in front of the road.

Niu Bing and Liu Xiyue naturally had no objection. The three people entered the opening and went into the depth.

“Yangzi, don’t this landscape looks heavenly? If this place existed before the apocalypse, it might make a nice scenic spot.” said Niu Bing as he tried to find pleasure amidst sufferings.

In a good mood, Cheng Yang replied, “Talking about scenic spot, that bottomless ravine around Xiangcheng City is absolutely the best scenic spot you can find. If it was before the end, it would be the only one in the world.”

Niu Bing only smiled wryly without argument.

“Help!” A weak voice came from above their head. The group was suddenly startled. How could someone be in this place?

Not to mention Cheng Yang, even Niu Bing and Liu Xiyue knew that those most miserable after the apocalypse appeared were people in rural areas and towns. Because they were too far away from the main city, the possibility of them transferring was negligible. In particular, those in the rural areas, due to the lack of shelter that the city’s ruins possessed, it caused them heavy casualties in the first wave of enchanted beasts. By now, in addition to the formation of certain size settlements that might still have people surviving, scattered households could hardly be seen a living person.

However, in this forest was incredibly someone yelling for help. It’s no wonder Cheng Yang and the others were surprised. To be able to live from the the start of the apocalypse till now and in such a forest, this was definitely not strength, but could only be interpreted as a kind of luck.

Cheng Yang and the others looked up at the direction of the voice, but all they could see was a huge stone hanging on both side of the cliffs. This stone was about seven to eight meters above ground level.

“Someone….someone help!” The weak voice sounded again.

Niu Bing looked at Cheng Yang and asked, “Yangzi, what should we do?”

“Save people! Apart from that what else can we do?” Cheng Yang reluctantly said.
