Chapter 271: Life and Death (1)

“Martial artists returning to the city, report to the inner city wall within 30 minutes.”

“I repeat. All martial artists, report to the inner city wall within 30 minutes…”

The high-decibel broadcast reverberated in the sky above capital city.

Along with the sound of the broadcast, there was also the mournful air defense alarm.

“Brother Yu, the second round of resistance is about to begin.”

“Mm.” Nodding his head, Chen Yu stopped at the entrance of Beijing University and looked at Bahuang Yao. “Let me test you. May I ask, why did the country have to limit the gathering of martial artists to 30 minutes?”

“Mm…” The young girl thought seriously. “Because… After 30 minutes, the Beast Tide will… eat up the entire western city.”

“That’s right. Xiao Yao, your IQ has increased. Although you’re still lacking at least 647 Ma Lis compared to me, it’s still a pretty good growth.”

Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction. “That’s why we only have 30 minutes to escape. After 30 minutes, the inner city might be surrounded by the Beast Tide.”

“I… Are we really not going to participate in the resistance?”

“No.” Chen Yu looked towards the west. “If everything is done by god, then what’s the meaning of human existence?”

“But…”

“There’s no buts. Women are so naggy.” Chen Yu waved his hand impatiently. “Let’s split up and go back to the dormitory. Pack your things and gather here in ten minutes.”

“…Okay.”

“Dismissed.”

“Wait… Wait a minute.” Bahuang Yao suddenly reached out and grabbed Chen Yu who was about to leave.

“What’s the matter?”

“Can you spare five minutes? We’ll gather here in fifteen minutes.”

“Why?”

The girl pursed her lips. “I want to go to the villa area to see my brother.”

“Your brother?” Chen Yu tilted his head in puzzlement. “Who’s your brother?”

“…Bahuang Yi.”

“Oh, it’s Xiao Yi. Why are you looking at him?”

“I… I want to see how my brother is doing.”

“There’s no time. It’s just ten minutes. It’s dangerous to be late by even a second. You can look at him if you want in the future.” Chen Yu’s eyes flickered. “Can he die?”

“Then… Alright.”

Raising his hand and pointing at the metal school gate of Beijing University, Chen Yu said, “Gather here in ten minutes.”

“Understood.”

“Dismissed!”

Bang! Bang!

As soon as he said that, the two of them activated their Qi and shot off, disappearing in a cloud of dust..

Half a minute later.

Chen Yu returned to the dormitory building.

He looked around and saw that there was no one around. He stepped on the balcony and nimbly jumped onto the roof.

In the corner of the roof, he saw the belongings that he left behind that morning — two cans of synthetic fluid, a pet egg, and other miscellaneous items.

He walked to the front of his backpack and unzipped it. He took out half a can of Grade-A synthetic fluid, took out a full syringe, and inserted it into his veins.

[Infected by unknown liquid: Strength +14928]

[Strength +14653]

[Strength…]

After emptying the syringe, Chen Yu quietly felt it and found that the burning strength around his body was still at Level 2.0. He then took out another syringe and pushed it into his body…

This cycle continued until he reached Level 2.1 before he put down the syringe.

Only a thin layer of white grease was left in the jar.

“I added tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands to break through 0.1? Wouldn’t that mean that the group of Level 7 and Level 8 old geezers would get a few billion if they leveled up to 0.1?”

Chen Yu was furious. “Is this f*cking reasonable?!”

Clang.

He put the jar back into his backpack with some annoyance and carried it on his shoulder. He picked up the pet egg and was about to jump off the building.

But just as his feet stepped on the roof, his wise brain suddenly thought of something.

He slowly turned his head.

He looked at the pet egg in his arms.

Chen Yu: “…”

Egg: “…”

Chen Yu: “…”

Egg: “…”

After a moment of silence, Chen Yu took out his phone and looked at the time.

Then, he decisively gave up on the idea of jumping off the building. Using his teleportation skill, he ‘pierced’ through the ceiling and jogged all the way back to his dormitory.

Bang!

He pushed open the door.

He impatiently walked into the kitchen, lit the fire, set the wok, poured the oil…

Egg: “…”

“What a stupid mortal.”

“He’s really too stupid.”

Chen Yu sighed. “Such a big egg, then why aren’t you eating it quickly? Didn’t they say that this thing is highly toxic?”

Egg: “…”

Dong!

Chen Yu placed the huge egg heavily on the chopping board, crossed his arms over his chest, and quietly waited for the temperature of the oil to rise.

In order to prevent the Ghost-Faced Giant Lizard’s egg from being eaten, before it broke its shell, it had specially produced all kinds of highly toxic biological toxins in the egg.

An ordinary person only needed to lightly touch the egg liquid and their throat would be instantly sealed.

“Don’t blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame Gou Sheng,” Chen Yu muttered. “If he hadn’t told me that you were poisonous, I wouldn’t have thought of eating it.”

Egg: “…”

“Yes, the temperature of the oil is fine.”

Chen Yu gently turned the pressure regulator and controlled the temperature. With a flick of his finger, a crack appeared on the egg skin.

Egg: “Crack.”

He stuck out his tongue and licked the egg liquid inside. The strange taste spread to his lips and teeth.

[Food poison: Constitution +120; Health +128; Immunity +116]

[Food poison: Constitution +115; Strength +78; Explosive Power +60; Metabolic Function +108; Organ Comprehensive Strength +108; Vision +120; Hearing +113]

[Ingestion of poison: Qi and Blood +5264]

“Eh?!”

Chen Yu immediately looked at the egg and tilted his head in surprise.

“Awesome!”

Then, his eyes emitted a green light as he excitedly opened the eggshell and poured some of the egg liquid into the pot.

Sizzle…

Hot oil splattered, and the egg was overflowing.

The fragrant fried egg instantly took shape.

Licking his lips, Chen Yu stuck his head out and breathed hard…

[Inhaling toxic substances: Constitution +23; Pulmonary Fibrosis -5]

[Health +22; Blood Oxygen Content +13]

Ignoring the boiling hot oil, he reached out, grabbed the yellow egg, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed, and swallowed.

[Ingestion of toxic substances: Constitution +64; Health +53; Immunity +60]

[Strength +32; Explosive Force +42…]

“…”

“It doesn’t seem to be nutritious when eaten raw.”

After staring blankly for a while with his intelligent eyes, Chen Yu picked up the eggshell, aimed at the gap that popped out, raised it up, and gulped it down.

“Gulp.”

“Gulp… Gulp…”

[Ingestion of poison: Health +532; Constitution +777; Explosive Force +364]

[Strength +281; Metabolic Function +233; Comprehensive Strength of Organs…]

[Ingestion of poison: Qi and Blood +7940]

“Gulp… Vomit!”

As he drank, Chen Yu paused and threw up a few mouthfuls of blood on the sink.

After resting for a moment, he continued to drink…

However, perhaps it was because he had been ‘severely injured’ by the poison, the effect of the martial skill ‘Enlightenment’ suddenly disappeared at this moment.

Chen Yu’s ‘consciousness’ instantly regained clarity.

His IQ also regained its high ground.

For a moment, he forgot to swallow and was ‘covered’ by the pale yellow egg liquid on his face…

Chen Yu: “…”

“…”

“…Gulp.”

Chen Yu put down the light eggshell in a daze. His eyes were absent-minded, his face was stiff, and the muscles all over his body were tense…

After an unknown amount of time.

He came to his senses, lowered his head, and looked at the eggshell in his hand in a daze. “My egg…”

“…”

Then he looked at his lower body. “My clothes…”

In the mind, suddenly recalled that he had in the battlefield ‘attention’ performance with one parts sad, two parts devastated, three parts embarrassed, four parts despair… together intertwined, welling up in the mind.

Hands, shaking.

Breathing, stopped.

He hugged his head and crouched down slowly.

“…”

“…”

“…This world.”

“Destroy it.”

“…”

“Roar, roar, roar –”

The roar of the Level 9 beast tore through the sky.

After the Beast Tide destroyed the huge west of the city, it once again attacked the inner city like a tsunami.

The mournful screams of people on the verge of death were easily drowned out.

However, the loud sound of the collapse of the tall buildings could not cover the crisp sound of the beasts feasting…

Standing on the alloy city wall of the inner city.

Qinghai Li’s eyes were blurred and his mind was in a trance.

The ancient capital of a thousand years was going to be destroyed today…

“Have all the people who should be evacuated gone?” After a long time, he asked.

“All of them have evacuated,” the female assistant beside him said respectfully.

“Then let’s start the second batch of evacuations. Those under the age of 20, whose strength level is above Level 2, and those under the age of 30, whose strength level is above Level 3, all retreat.”

“Yes.” The assistant nodded, took out a device similar to a mobile phone, and started to operate it. “Are some of the theoretical professors also going to retreat?”

“All of them.”

“What about the foreign professors?”

“Those who can retreat, go ahead. Only those with strong combat strength are left.”

“Yes.”

“…And.” Qinghai turned his head and said to the assistant, “Do you remember the naked student? His name is Chen Yu.”

“I remember.” The female assistant’s face was slightly red. “I have a deep impression of him.”

“He is a talent and must be withdrawn. For some reason, the Level 9 gorilla has his eyes on him. We can’t let him go up the city wall again.”

The assistant said, “He doesn’t want to go at all. He has already run away.”

Qinghai Li: “…Good.”

“Sir… are you sure you don’t want to leave?”

“If I leave, the city will be destroyed.” Qinghai Li looked into the distance. “This time, I have schemed against the whole world and the entire country. Regardless of success or failure, someone has to take responsibility.”

“…” The assistant was silent.

“After I die, if the Beast Tide is blocked, build a statue for me in the square of my alma mater, facing the west.”

“…Yes.”

At the same time.

Following the air defense alarm that echoed again.

Chen Yu slowly stood up, expressionless, and firmly pressed the mask of the Law Enforcer on his face.

“From now on…”

“I forgot love.”

“…”

“If I f*cking use Enlightenment again, I’ll be a f*cking son of a b*tch!”

He cursed viciously.

Chen Yu changed into a new coat, put on his backpack, pushed open the window, and jumped out.

Not long after, he arrived at the West Campus Gate of Beijing University.

He saw Bahuang Yao’s thin figure squatting at the door.

“Don’t be embarrassed…”

“It was all a dream.”

“It was all a game, a dream…”

He took a deep breath and hypnotized himself for half a minute in his heart. Chen Yu walked up and patted the girl’s shoulder lightly. “You’re taking a sh*t?”

“Ah?”

Bahuang Yao was startled. She hurriedly stood up and turned around, unnaturally wiping the corners of her eyes.

“What’s wrong with you?” Chen Yu asked.

“No… nothing.” The young girl forced a smile. “I just feel that… how did everything suddenly become like this?”

“Are you talking about the Beast Tide?”

“I’m talking about everything.”

“…Don’t think too much.” Reaching out, he rubbed Bahuang Yao’s small head. Chen Yu pointed to the east. “Life is like a play, nothing more. Let’s go, the Beast Tide is coming.”

“Are we deserters?”

“Not really.” Chen Yu pushed his mask back. “I’m enforcing the law. The country has given me the right to override all rules. And on the battlefield, I’ve already done what I can. What’s more…”

His voice paused slightly. He narrowed his eyes and looked to the west. “Why would I be targeted by a Level 9 exotic beast?”

“Brother Yu…” Bahuang Yao stammered. “You… You’re back to normal?”

Chen Yu: “…”

“Brother Yu! You used your toes to dig a hole again!”

“…Actually, everything that happened before was your illusion.” Chen Yu’s tone was serious as he spouted nonsense. “You were affected by my illusion. It was all fake.”

Bahuang Yao: “I’m not stupid.”

Chen Yu: “…”

After a moment of silence, he took out a white cloth from his pocket and wrapped it around the girl’s face. “Stop wasting time and leave quickly. Now, you have to hide your identity with me.”

“Oh. This cloth… is it the one I wrapped around your waist before?”

“It’s not that one.”

“Oh.” Bahuang Yao immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

“What else could it be?”

“…”

Along the main road.

The two of them headed east.

Soon, they arrived at the east gate of the inner city.

Along the way, Chen Yu and his wife encountered many checkpoints. However, whether it was the soldiers or the patrolling warriors, they all let Chen Yu Pass when they saw his mask. They didn’t question or stop him.

Even Bahuang Yao, who was beside him, they pretended not to see her.

“We’re here.”

Stopping in front of the city gate, Chen Yu looked around, raised his hand, and whistled.

Not long after.

Ma Li, whose entire body was covered in a black robe, appeared.

“Ma Li?” Chen Yu asked in a low voice.

“It’s me.” Ma Li lifted a part of her hood, revealing her face. “Can we leave now?”

“Also… Should we take her with us?” Bahuang Yao was at a loss.

“What you’re saying is heartless. I worked so hard in the elimination round and was almost ruined by those people who were… living a good life. Aren’t you willing to help me with this?”

“No… No.” The girl waved her hand. “I didn’t mean that.”

“Alright, I’m just teasing you.” Ma Li grinned. “Brother Yu is a particular person. Just because I gave him that egg, he can’t… Eh? Where’s the egg?”

Chen Yu was silent for a moment before saying, “It’s bad.”

“Bad? That’s the egg of the Ghost-Faced Giant Lizard! You’re telling me it’s bad?!”

“Yes, it’s bad.”

“And then?”

“I threw it away.”

“…Why didn’t you say that you ate it?”

Chen Yu said, “Yes, I ate it.”

“Don’t be so perfunctory! That thing is very expensive, alright? And even if you have money, you can’t buy it! You can’t throw it away!”

“Stop wasting time. Are you leaving or not?”

“I’m leaving.” Ma Li instantly fell silent.

“Then before I leave, I want to ask you something.”

“What is it?”

Chen Yu leaned close to Ma Li’s ear. “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you?”

“Why do you want to kill me?” Ma Li smiled.

“The identity of a Law Enforcer is confidential. You guessed it without any scruples. How do you know that I don’t want to kill you?”

“Because I won’t reveal it to the public.”

Ma Li spread her hands. “What benefits does this have for me? You’re a great person. You’ll definitely soar in the future. I have this opportunity, so I naturally want to be on the list. Then our interests will be the same. In this world, anything will be betrayed. Only interests are eternal. And…”

“And what?”

“And I know the Law Enforcement Department. Although there will be trouble if my identity is exposed, it’s just a little trouble. I’m of great use to you. If you kill me, you’re being unreasonable.”

Hearing this, Chen Yu’s eyes wandered and he didn’t comment.

“So…” At the side, Bahuang Yao suddenly asked, “You didn’t participate in the defense of the city wall?”

“Yes.” Ma Li nodded decisively. “I escaped.”

“That’s not good…”

“I know. But I want to live,” Ma Li said calmly. “This world is very realistic. “Even if I get third place in the knockout round, I’m still an ordinary student. The position arranged for me is very likely to be in the center of the city wall where I will die. I don’t want to die so humbly on the city wall.”

“Are you saying that the warriors who went up the city wall but sacrificed themselves were very lowly?”

“Yes.” Ma Li nodded. “They died so simply, very lowly. I don’t care what you think of me. I’ve always told the truth.”

“…” Bahuang Yao’s expression became a little ugly.

“I’m afraid of death, but it’s not that I can’t sacrifice my life for this country. I think that if I live, I’ll be more helpful to this world than if I die. So, I escaped.”

“…” The girl was silent.

“Alright, that’s enough gossip,” Chen Yu interrupted. “It’s time to leave.”

With that, he took the lead and walked into the south city gate.

The military officers and patrolling warriors who were in charge of guarding the city had been observing Chen Yu and the other two for a long time.

When they saw that they were finally about to leave, they immediately made way and pulled open the city gate…

Bahuang Yao and Ma Li looked at each other. Both of them had complicated emotions as they followed Chen Yu out of the inner city.

The moment they walked out of the city gate, Chen Yu could not help but stop and look back.

In the distance, the familiar streets were still filled with the lingering charm of history that could be seen with the naked eye.

“The capital city…”

“Don’t destroy it…”

Dong! Dong! Dong…

The capital city, north of the city.

In one dark alley after another, a gorilla that was as big as an elephant was erupting with a terrifying force as it ran crazily.

When it crossed the road, it was shot by the soldiers on guard, but it did not stop.

Its blood-red eyes seemed to be able to see through the obstacles and locked onto the human figure in front of it without blinking.

“Chen…”

“Roar…”
