Chapter 44 - The Line Between Life And Death (5)

Ten kilometers away from Qingcheng City.

On the cliff, four figures looked at the Beast Tide running below silently.

After a long time.

A woman said, "Captain, is it really good... for us to do this?"

"I alone will bear all the responsibility."

"You can't," another person said.

"Only death." The man waved his hand. "Let's go."

The other three looked at each other and could only follow behind.

Each of them was wearing the uniform of Capital University...

...

At the same time.

Qingcheng City, East City Wall.

Chen Yu slowly walked to the side of the city wall.

Outside the city, the Beast Tide that was as vast as the ocean actually turned its edge and headed southwest...

"How is this possible?" The one-eyed old man next to him was shocked. "Impossible... How could this happen?"

Chen Yu was the first to come back to his senses and hurriedly asked, "Were they scared away by the cloud bomb just now?"

"Exotic beasts don't fear at all! How could they be scared away?!"

The one-eyed old man was so excited that his beard was shaking. "Back then, when the Short Spring City encountered the Beast Tide, the country sent four Level 6 martial artists, over 200,000 mechanical troops, and even used nuclear weapons to protect that heavy industrial area, but they couldn't save the Short Spring City. Now, just a few cloud bombs can scare off the Beast Tide?"

"Then why did they leave?"

"How would I know?" The one-eyed old man smashed the city wall with hatred. "There must be someone playing tricks here!"

"Do you feel bad that you didn't die?"

"Ah? Why would you ask that?"

Chen Yu: "I'm going to call the police. I suspect that you're the one who attracted the Beast Tide."

The one-eyed old man: "..."

...

On the city wall, after a short period of silence, cheers erupted once again.

It was far more enthusiastic than when the missiles had come to their aid.

The Beast Tide had retreated.

Although he did not know why, it was still a good thing to survive.

The mayor stood on the high platform and changed binoculars one after another. After he was completely sure that Qingcheng was safe, he immediately took the microphone and shouted at the top of his lungs, "We won! We won!"

"Ho ho ho!"

"We won!"

"Ah, ah..."

"OHOHOHOHOH..."

The martial artists roared, jumped, ran, cried, hugged each other, venting their excitement and relief.

Chen Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. He sat against the wall, lit a cigarette, smoked, and laughed out loud.

He didn't have to risk his life anymore.

His family wouldn't be in danger anymore.

Sister Qi wouldn't die either.

Hell and heaven... The line between life and death, could actually be changed so easily.

This made him feel that peace was hard to come by.

"Hu..."

As the smoke was exhaled, Chen Yu turned his head and asked, "Sir, won't the Beast Tide come back?"

"Probably not." The one-eyed old man also sat beside Chen Yu and asked for a cigarette. "After the Beast Tide gathered, it was pushed one wave after another. The exotic beasts also didn't have the ability to turn around."

Hearing that, Chen Yu's smoking stopped. "They'll keep moving forward?"

"Of course, unless they're full... Hmm?" The one-eyed old man also reacted. "If the Beast Tide keeps moving forward, where will it reach?"

Chen Yu took out his phone and opened the navigation map. "In the southwest direction... Crane City. F*ck! Isn't Crane City the destination of those students' evacuation?!"

They looked at each other with complicated expressions.

...

After a full half an hour, the endless sea of beasts gradually disappeared.

All the martial artists also received permission from above and began to descend the city wall in an orderly manner. They also took back the equipment that the government had given them previously.

Chen Yu followed at the end of the crowd and took out the police 92 pistol. He asked the one-eyed old man behind him, "Sir, is this gun valuable?"

The old man stuck his head out and glanced at it. "It's an 18-year-old police 92. The spring, trigger, and barrel have all been strengthened. It can fire many high-powered bullets. It's very stable."

"I asked if it's valuable."

"It's valuable. It's usually circulated within the public security system. It's not easy to buy on the market. The black market at least costs 200,000 a gun."

"200,000..."

Swallowing his saliva, Chen Yu withdrew from the team and turned to leave.

"Hey? Where are you going?" the one-eyed old man shouted.

"I forgot something. I'm going back to get it."

He ran to a corner where no one was paying attention. He touched the model 92 pistol and licked his lips.

Without a doubt, this was a good thing.

A few days ago, when he went to the store, he couldn't bear to buy it.

After all, the guns used by martial artists were too expensive.

"As the saying goes, a thief does not leave empty-handed. How can I return what was in my hands?"

Turning around, he glanced around. Chen Yu took out a sharp dagger, pressed the tip of the dagger against his abdomen, and took a deep breath.

"200,000!"

"Pfft."

His skin was cut open, and fresh blood flowed out.

He shivered in pain, and hurriedly stuffed the Type 92 pistol and bullets into his stomach.

[Damage received: Qi and Blood +1275]

[Damage received: Qi and Blood +1088]

The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The 'property' worth more than 200,000 yuan was 'sealed' by Chen Yu just like that.

"Ah..."

"I feel like a pervert..."

Chen Yu took back his dagger and silently followed at the end of the crowd.

About ten minutes later, it was his turn.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

The metal detector in the police officer's hand immediately sounded the alarm.

Chen Yu calmly covered his left abdomen. "There's a steel plate."

Hearing this, the police officer reached out and touched Chen Yu's abdomen. He did not find anything, nor did he ask anything. He just waved his hand and let him leave.

'Normal people' would not have thought that a 'normal person' would cut open his abdomen and stuff a pistol into it.

"Ha... two hundred thousand, two hundred thousand."

The Beast Tide was gone. Everything returned to normal, and he even earned a pistol worth two hundred thousand. Chen Yu was extremely happy.

"The ups and downs of life are really too exciting."

After leaving the East City Wall, he randomly found an alley and used a dagger to cut open his abdomen. He took out the blood-stained Type 92 pistol and bullets.

From now on, the owner of this gun was him.

The country allowed people to carry guns. Even if it was a police handgun, ordinary people could still carry it.

The police would not question it even if they saw it.

After all, the quality of police equipment was good. Many martial artists would think of ways to buy it...

After wiping the bloodstains off the gun, Chen Yu immediately rushed in the direction of his home.

As soon as he entered the residential area, he bumped into Mother Chen and Chen Siwen who came out from the front.

"Chen Yu!"

"Little Yu!"

"Mom!"

Mother Chen pounced forward and hugged Chen Yu tightly, crying loudly.

Chen Siwen's eyes were also red.

"Are you guys okay?" Chen Yu patted his mother's shoulder and asked.

"We're fine." Chen Siwen wiped her tears and shook her head. "How about you?"

"I've earned this wave of blood." Chen Yu chuckled. "Alright Mom, don't cry anymore."

Mother Chen choked. "I almost thought I wouldn't be able to see you."

"That's impossible, unless you're blind."

"..." Mother Chen stopped crying.

Chen Siwen: "...."
