Chapter 186: Rescue (2)

“Hurry up and tell me what you want me to do!” Chen Yu asked anxiously.

“As long as we enter Bodhi Island, won’t those Wraiths automatically come over?”

Chen Yu: “…”

Duan Ye was puzzled. “Didn’t you go to the alien realm on Bodhi Island? How come you don’t even know about this?”

“Are you farting with me?”

“Then didn’t you also smell it?”

Clang!

Chen Yu pulled out his long sword.

“You f*cking…” Duan Ye retreated. “Just speak nicely, why are you always fighting? You begged me to ask you a question, yet you’re still so arrogant.”

“If you answer properly, can I ‘poke’ you?”

“Then the question you asked is just nonsense, I don’t understand it either…”

“Okay, I’ll try to be more detailed.” Chen Yu held the sword and pressed it against Duan Ye’s neck. “How do I suck them in?”

“Use the Spirit Gathering Pearl.” Duan Ye spoke quickly.

“How did you understand it this time?”

“Because this time, your description was particularly detailed and your words were accurate. I understood it immediately.”

“Then that’s what I’ll say in the future.”

“No problem.” Duan Ye extended two fingers and carefully moved the sword away. “Put away your weapon. It’ll easily rust if it’s exposed to the outside world.”

After putting the sword back, Chen Yu continued to ask, “What is the Spirit Gathering Pearl?”

“Haven’t you heard of it?”

“No.”

“I’ve confirmed it. You were really a bad student in junior high.”

As he said that, Duan Ye opened his backpack and took out a black bead the size of a ping pong ball. He showed it to Chen Yu. “This is called the Spirit Gathering Pearl. It’s used by martial arts majors to train the soul essence.”

“Soul essence?”

“It’s commonly known as spiritual power.”

“Oh.” Chen Yu understood.

“It’s different from force. It’s very difficult to train the spiritual power. You must have the help of external objects. The Spirit Gathering Pearl is one of them.” He knocked on the smooth surface of the ball. “It’s mainly produced in Shennongjia No. 3 alien realm. It can attract the special magnesium ions that wander around.”

“Magnesium ion…”

“Yes. The one obtained from the loss of the outermost two electrons of the magnesium atom. The symbol is Mg^²+. It is an essential mineral element for the human body. It plays a significant role in the level of mental strength.”

“Continue.” Because Chen Yu was also preparing to learn Qi martial arts, this kind of knowledge was naturally not let go.

“For example, in the central nervous system, the NMDA type glutamate receptor plays an absolutely important role in learning and memory. It is also an important part of the overall mental strength. When this receptor absorbs glutamate, the nerve cells will automatically absorb calcium ions. And magnesium ions can effectively block the increase of the inhibitory CREB protein.”

Duan Ye spoke with confidence, “This is just one of the many chemical reactions of magnesium ions to the brain. When combined with the force, it can produce more changes. Of course, the absorption of magnesium ions can not be too much. The human body will have a burden limit. The relevant knowledge is too complicated. You only need to know that it is the most important substance to increase spiritual power.”

“Understood.” Chen Yu nodded and very naturally snatched the Spirit Gathering Pearl over. “What should I do?”

“That… That is my pearl.”

“Look at your stingy manner. How can I snatch it away? Am I that shameless?”

“Oh, you just need to mobilize your strength and charge up to the star acupoint.”

Taking half a step back, Chen Yu followed Duan Ye’s instructions and gathered a wisp of strength onto his forehead.

Instantly, he felt that the bead in his hand was attracting something that was barely noticeable.

After a long while…

[Spirit -1]

Chen Yu: “…”

“How is it?” Duan Ye rubbed his hands. “Do you feel it? A slow person wouldn’t be able to feel it.”

Chen Yu: “I can feel it.”

Duan Ye: “Actually, I lied to you. No matter if you’re slow or not, you won’t be able to feel the slow increase in your spiritual power. I told you to act cool.”

“…It’s pretty good.”

Chen Yu put away his energy expressionlessly.

He also put away the Spirit Gathering Pearl.

Duan Ye’s smile stopped. He looked down at Chen Yu’s backpack and then looked up at Chen Yu. “…Mine.”

“I know you.” Chen Yu waved his hand impatiently. “I just want to study it. How can I take it away? How shameless am I?”

“Then… that’s fine.”

“Okay.” Chen Yu tightened the zipper of his backpack and looked around. “Eh? Where are Xiao Yao and the others?”

“They’ve all gone far away…”

“Which direction are they going?”

Duan Ye was at a loss. “That’s not how it works.”

“Make a call.” Chen Yu subconsciously took out his phone.

“There’s no internet connection in Tang City right now. You can’t get through.”

“Then what should we do?”

Chen Yu looked at Duan Ye.

Duan Ye also looked at Chen Yu.

The two of them stared at each other for a moment before they suddenly said in unison, “Are we going to Red Light Street?”

“Yes!”

Duan Ye spread his hands. “This time, Brother Tie is going to be angry again.”

“Who told them to get separated?”

“What if the Red Light Street collapses as well?”

“Rescue.” Chen Yu snapped his fingers. “It doesn’t matter where we go to rescue them.”

The two of them ‘familiarized themselves with the road’ and arrived at the Red Light Street near Hotel 92.

Perhaps it was because the Fair Association’s stronghold here was already gone, but the Red Light Street was such a bustling area, yet there was actually not a single bit of damage.

However, the two of them only took a simple stroll around. After confirming that there were no collapsed buildings, they decided to go to other areas to rescue.

Chen Yu: “You can find a girl to play with at any time. However, there is only one life. If you can save one, then so be it.”

“Right.” Duan Ye nodded. “If it wasn’t for the fact that the Red Light Street was closed, I would have almost believed it.”

After rushing to the nearest disaster area, the two of them did not delay much. After displaying their student ID cards, they quickly joined the rescue team.

Compared to Duan Ye, who was taking turns to dig with his hoe, the sword in Chen Yu’s hand was undoubtedly much more efficient.

With a sweep, with a flick.

The reinforced concrete boulder was cut into pieces like a knife cutting through tofu.

As they went deeper into the city, Chen Yu and Duan Ye also experienced the terror of the Beast Tide stepping into the city.

Wherever it passed, there were almost no survivors.

Especially at night, most of the people were unable to escape from their homes in time. In a densely packed city, a beast that was wreaking havoc was like a human life reaper.

And a few hundred beasts appeared at the same time..

“Fair Association”

Chen Yu gripped the hilt of his sword tightly. His heart was no longer just filled with anger.

Rumble…

With a slash, he cut through a collapsed wall. Chen Yu lifted the remaining part of the wall and looked at the bloody mess that was no longer human. He sighed deeply. “Duan Ye, drag him out.”

“Okay.”

Duan Ye, who was wearing gloves, walked over and silently dragged the body away.

Chen Yu let go.

Boom…

The broken wall smashed into dust and mist.

“There are so many of them. Even if there are living people buried inside, they can’t be saved, right?” Duan Ye sat down next to the body and said hoarsely, “How many of them can survive until they’re all gone?”

Chen Yu said, “This is the disaster area.”

Duan Ye took off his gloves and looked at Chen Yu. “Give me a cigarette.”

Chen Yu raised his eyebrows and took out a cigarette box from his pocket. “Didn’t you say you don’t smoke?”

“Now I want to smoke.”

He took out two cigarettes and lit them with a lighter. Chen Yu passed one to Duan Ye and held one in his mouth. “Smoke slowly. This cigarette is very strong.”

“Phew… Cough.” Duan Ye shook the ash off his cigarette and looked at the busy rescuers around him and the rows of corpses covered in white cloth. After a moment of silence, he said, “Brother Yu…”

“Say it.”

“Say…” Duan Ye’s eyes were blurred. “Was He City like this back then?”

After blowing out a smoke ring, Chen Yu sat next to Duan Ye. “Do you want to hear the truth or lies?”

“The truth.”

“Then the people here…” Chen Yu pointed at the pile of corpses. “They are much luckier than the people of He City. At least, there are people of the same kind to collect their corpses. The people of He City have all been eaten by mutated beasts. They can’t even keep their clothes.”

“So, my parents were also eaten.” Duan Ye took a big puff and spat it out with a slight tremble.

“…” Chen Yu was silent.

“Were they afraid before they died? Were they in pain when they were eaten? What did they think of?” Duan Ye closed his eyes. “They should have thought of me.”

The two of them stopped talking.

After quietly smoking the cigarette in his hand, they continued to get up and work.

It was almost evening. The city’s network was finally the first to be unblocked after emergency repairs.

For a moment, the emergency calls buried deep underground almost blew up the hospitals, police stations, and fire stations.

The efficiency of the rescue was increased once again.

“Buzz… Buzz, buzz.”

Not long after, Chen Yu’s phone rang.

Wiping the sweat that was mixed with the mud on his face, Chen Yu took it out and saw that it was Chen Siwen calling. He immediately picked up. “Hello, Sister?”

“Xiao Yu!” On the other end of the phone, Chen Siwen’s sobbing voice could be heard. “You finally picked up the f*cking phone.”

“The communication seems to have only just been restored.”

“I saw it on the news. Tang City was attacked by an exotic beast?”

“Yes.”

“Then how are you doing? Mom and I have been worried about you all day.”

“I’m fine.” Narrowing his eyes, Chen Yu scanned the surrounding ruins. “I’m helping. How is Mom?”

“Mom is right next to you. Can you talk to her?”

“Let’s not talk about it for now. Let’s talk about it when I get back. Many people are calling for help. Our communication resources are limited. Let’s hang up first.”

“Well… Fine. Xiao Yu, you must take care of your safety.”

“Hmm.”

After hanging up, another call came in less than half a minute.

This time, it was from Zhang Tie.

After hearing that Chen Yu and Duan Ye were rescuing the victims in other disaster areas, Zhang Tie became reassured. After instructing them for a short while, he hung up the phone.

The intense rescue continued until the sky turned completely dark before the efficiency gradually decreased.

When Chen Yu and Duan Ye dragged out another two corpses, the other rescue workers had called them to eat.

The dishes were very simple.

White rice, stir-fried vegetables, and some meat.

But everyone ate very well.

Including some women, they squatted beside the bodies and did not affect their appetites.

Hunger and exhaustion could suppress everything…

“It’s already dark. We need a more professional rescue, so we won’t be needed for the time being.” Duan Ye sat to the left of Chen Yu and said as he ate, “Let’s find a place to rest. I’m exhausted.”

After wolfing down all the bento boxes, Chen Yu mumbled, “Where are we going?”

“There’s an empty space over there. It seems to be a residential area that the municipal government specially set up for the rescue team.”

“Okay, let’s go there.” Chen Yu nodded and stood up to walk towards the empty space.

“Wait for me. I haven’t finished eating…”

The two of them came to the small square that was still in good condition. After showing their student ID cards, they were led to a tent by the busy staff.

“You guys can stay here. It’s a little crowded, but that’s the condition for now.”

“Understood.”

After seeing the staff member leave, Duan Ye dragged his body and opened the tent. With a plop, he lay down inside. He was too lazy to even turn over. “I’ve exhausted my stamina. Why don’t you come in too? Come, I’ll hug you to sleep…”

“No.” Chen Yu rejected flatly. “I’m still energetic. You sleep by yourself.”

“This physique of yours… I’m really envious. In the future, when you find a girlfriend, you must find someone who is able to take a lot of exercise.”

Chen Yu: “…”

In less than a minute, Duan Ye’s light snoring could be heard from inside the tent.

Shrugging his shoulders, Chen Yu left the tent area and randomly found a place where no one was around. He lit up a cigarette and looked at the night sky where the lights and darkness intersected in the distance. No one knew what he was thinking about.

Cigarette after cigarette.

When the cigarette box was empty, Chen Yu lay flat on the ground and closed his eyes for a short breath,

Dong…

Dong… Dong…

However, as the night deepened, the surroundings became quieter. Chen Yu, who had five sensitive senses, suddenly felt a slight vibration under his body.

“Yes.”

He stood up suspiciously and pressed his ears tightly to the ground, listening carefully.

Dong…

Dong… Dong… Dong…

“Is this the sound of machinery digging?” Chen Yu frowned and thought for a moment. Then, he took out his phone and looked at the time.

Night, 8:58 pm.

Dong… Dong… Dong…

The vibration seemed to be even stronger.

Inexplicably, he felt a chill sweep through his entire body, and goosebumps appeared on his skin.

“Something’s wrong…”

Jumping up, Chen Yu looked around and found two pieces of metal. He pressed them against his left ear and struck it hard!

Dang!

Sparks flew everywhere!

[Hearing impairment: Left Ear Temporary Hearing +247; Left Ear Hearing +3]

Taking advantage of the pain in his ear, Chen Yu pressed his left ear against the ground again.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds…

Chen Yu’s face was ashen.

“Impossible…”
