Chapter 143: Chapter 143 The Soul Of Dark Warrior
“Zhu Yatou, your wind and fire master doesn’t want to go?” said Fu Liaoyuan while rubbing his red eyes. He leaned against the chair and didn’t seem to be surprised by the news.
“Not them. It’s their leader.” Zhu Lingdie shook her head.
“It is the same thing, you can never rely on those people, they only care about themselves!” Fu Liaoyuan waved his hand and carry on, “Qin Min, select the elite soldiers from every regiment to form a suicide squad. Get them ready as soon as possible!”
“Commander, let Miss Zhu try one more time, even if that Chu person doesn’t want to go, other people may want to help us. Our soldiers are just ordinary people…” said Qin Min. He then secretly gave Zhu Lingdie an eye signal.
“Old Qin, we are indeed ordinary men, but we are organized and well-disciplined, we have steely determinations, and we are willing to sacrifice ourselves for the greater good! But what do those dark warriors have? Only some bulls.h.i.+t dark energies, and nothing else!
Just some small fireb.a.l.l.s could make them lose their order and fall into chaos! These people, no matter how strong they are, they won’t be able to achieve anything. Because in their mind, they are already lost.”
Fu Liaoyuan stood up from the chair and gazed afar through the window, “To them, 10 dark warriors are the same as 10 ordinary soldiers. They are too powerful, we can only hope that we will be able to sneak in,” he said slowly.
Zhu Lingdie felt embarra.s.sed, but there was nothing good about dark warriors that she could use to refute Fu Liaoyuan’s comment.
“If four dark warrior kings worked together, they could easily overthrow GCH, but they still surrendered. This is why you can’t depend on them. Zhu Yatou, the reason why the headquarters gave the regiment to you is that they want you to get them to fight together. We don’t want them to fight individually on their own. We want them to become our backbones, our main counterattack force. Of course, it needs time, and this war may last for a very long time…” Fu Liaoyuan turned around and suddenly changed the topic, “Your job is to help them to establish the determinations, help them to find their souls, a brave dark warrior’s soul!”
A dark warrior’s soul!? She had never thought of it before. She also didn’t have time to think about it. All she knew was that the world she lived in had changed and their lives were at risk.
“Sorry, I got carried away. Old Qin, get the men ready as soon as possible, I am a little bit tired, I need some rest. You two may leave now.” Since the swarm surrounded the city, he hasn’t had a good sleep.

“Zhu Lingdie wants me to cross the river to blow up those tombs.” Chu Yunsheng said calmly. He had already adjusted his emotions after he left the tent.
Ding Yan’s eyelids suddenly twitched, but he didn’t say anything. Turning around, he looked at the tomb for a few seconds, and then looked at Chu Yunsheng.
“I refused!” Chu Yunsheng didn’t look at Ding Yan, but he still said calmly, “if there was no river, I might try it. Because even if I can’t blow up the tombs, I still have a chance to come back.”
“Mr. Chu, no matter what kind of decisions you made, we’ll always support you!” Ding Yan said sternly.
“Later on, send someone to the office building, and ask them to be extra careful…” Chu Yunsheng nodded his head and said.
He didn’t say it clearly, but Ding Yan should be able to understand what he meant by that. He also hoped that it was just him worrying too much.
“I’ll get it done, but don’t worry. I don’t think the division will not do such things. Otherwise, they will lose all the support. It is not worth it for them to do it!” said Ding Yan.
“I hope so!” said Chu Yunsheng while leaning against a stone wall.
Seeing Ning Mingxuan was busy asking soldiers to move the insects’ bodies away from the battlefield, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to absorb the energy from those bodies.
Those frozen fireb.a.l.l.s also contain fire elemental energy. Most of its energy was still trapped inside the ice. Chu Yunsheng could still absorb them!
He quickly used empty level-2 absorption talismans that he had kept for emergency use to absorb the energy from those fireb.a.l.l.s first.
Each fireball filled up two absorption talismans.
After a while, he noticed that he didn’t even have enough empty absorption talisman left. So he went back to the shed to make new absorption talismans.
All the green-sh.e.l.led insects were removed from the battlefield and loaded onto the trucks that would later be transported to GRD. When he finally absorbed all the energy from all the fireb.a.l.l.s. He quickly moved to the gaps in between the trucks to absorb the energy as fast as he could.
The soldiers would use all kinds of methods to remove the sh.e.l.ls and only keep the meat on the trucks. The sh.e.l.ls would be left on the front line to reinforce their defence.
Green sh.e.l.l was very strong, it was also very effective at blocking the fire energy attack. So it was very good material for reinforcing the defence line.
Chu Yunsheng suddenly had an idea, he remembered that there was a level-three defensive talisman in the book.
It was called Yu Tu talisman, once it was cast onto the sh.e.l.l, it would greatly increase their defence power. It could be used to reinforce the entire defence line.
Although he was not familiar with this type of talismans and he also didn’t know the incantation symbols, he had enough absorption talismans to test it out.
He wanted to try his best to reinforce the defence line so he wouldn’t need to cross the river to blow up the tombs!
However, he had underestimated the headquarters’ determination. After the hazy s.h.i.+mmer disappeared from the sky, a group of soldiers took the explosives and crossed the river on a boat!
Almost all the soldiers flocked to the riverside to give the seven soldiers a send-off.
Everyone knew that this was a one-way trip, but no one stopped them.
Then, a bright light flashed in the dark night, a huge explosion arose on the other side of the river.
The ground was constantly shaking. It caused many big waves in the river.
In the fire caused by the explosions, the swarm was blown up and then fell to the ground like it was raining the insects.
Then it went quiet, a dead silence. All the wind seemed to have stopped.
The friends of the suicide squad were helping the injured comrades to stand on the frontline and gazed afar at the other side river.
For a long time, they stood there and refused to leave.
…
“Perhaps I’ll bid farewell and never to return,
Perhaps I will fall and never to rise again,
Perhaps my eyes will shut and never open again,
Perhaps I will sleep forever, never able to wake up again,
If it’s to be so, grieve not, the flag of our Republic has our blood-stained glory.
If it’s to be so, grieve not, the soil of our Republic contains the love we have given.
……”
No one knew who was the first person that started singing, but slowly more and more people started to join in. The hoa.r.s.e and desolate song resounded by the riverside, shaking the cold, dark, b.l.o.o.d.y, and ruthless night for a very long time.
Chu Yunsheng felt a tightness in his chest. He felt discomfort and shortness of breath. But he did not know why.
The second division commander’s reinforcement requests kept coming to Fu Liaoyuan’s desk.
3 hours ago, he sent over the security battalions; 2 hours ago, he sent over the third regiment. Now the dark warrior regiment was getting ready to a.s.sist the second division.
Chu Yunsheng was sitting on the truck. His body was b.u.mping up and down as the truck was heading towards the second division quickly. But his mind was still filled with the sound of explosions.
When the truck drove out of the Western District and drove past a luxury housing estate in the Southern district, he suddenly raised his head and stood up while he was still inside the truck.
The ancient book that was silently sitting inside the storage talisman suddenly had a slight movement. It was exactly the same as when he encountered the first map!
‘Is it the second map?’ Chu Yunsheng couldn’t help but think. But the ancient book soon fell silent again.
According to the ancient book, after each map was found, the book’s detection radius would be gradually increased. So even if he could sense that he was near the book, he still would not be able to find it in a short period of time.
Especially at this time, the Southern district urgently needed for reinforcement. There was no time for him to get off the truck and look for the map slowly. He could only try to remember this location and come back to find it later.
