Chapter 167: Chapter 167 The Secret Of Jin Ling City
Not only Zhu Lingdie’s people saw the fight between Chu Yunsheng and the woman in the white dress, but Wu Kezhao also saw the fight.
“Sister Ligndie?” Su Yun hesitated after she saw the fight.
“Don’t move, let’s just wait here. We cannot deal with any one of them.” Zhu Lingdie said sternly.
Chu Yunsheng slowly walked down the icy roof. Although he was shocked and surprised, he did not panic this time.
The woman was even more powerful than he expected. Despite being in the fight, she could still notice Zhu Lingdie, who was on the ground in the dim light. It could only mean that she did not use all of her strength during the fight. But it did not mean that he would not have a chance. Because of the cloaked man, most of the high-level offensive talismans he had were mainly used to counterattack the fire elemental energy. If he had a lot of high level of fire elemental offensive talismans, he believed that he would definitely be able to give her some pressure.
“What happened?” asked Ding Yan. All the walls had frost and it was extremely cold in the building. Everyone was still in a state of panic after Chu Yunsheng signaled them to come out.
“Remember the woman in the white dress I told you about. She was here, and she left,” Chu Yunsheng said sternly.
“Let’s talk about it in the meeting room.” Ding Yan knitted his brows then glanced over the crowd and said.
Chu Yunsheng nodded his head, “Zhu Lingdie is outside, tell Ye Qisheng to open the gate and take her here. Everyone can go back to their rooms now!”
He turned around and saw Chu Han’s face was filled with worries. “Auntie, go, have a rest. It’s fine, I’ll deal with it. Nothing serious.” He held her cold hand and smiled at her.
—————————The 7th-floor Meeting Room——————-
Ding Yan, Yao Xiang, and a few other senior members sat opposite Chu Yunsheng, and Chu Yunsheng had told them what happened and why Zhu Lingdie was here.
“Mr. Chu do you know whether she is a human or not?” Ding Yan thought for a second and asked.
“I’m not sure, she looks exactly like us, the only strange thing is how she speaks,” Chu Yunsheng tried to remember every detail and said.
“She seems to know a lot of secrets, she also knows about the cloaked man and seems to know a lot about him. The possibility that she isn’t a human is very high, and more importantly, Mr. Chu can you defeat her?” Ding Yan stared at him.
“If I do not prepare anything, I will definitely lose. If I am prepared, she won’t be able to defeat me easily.” Chu Yunsheng said sternly.
“Mr. Chu as long as you are confident that you can give her pressure, then things will be easy. It does not matter what they want to do. At the moment, It does not affect us much. Even if you just lost the fight, it is not a bad thing at all. At least, she will not be focusing on us anymore.
I think not only Zhu Lingdie was watching the fight, probably Fang Yuehou and the cloaked man will also receive the same information as well.
Now, one of them is supporting deputy chief commander Fang, the other is supporting deputy chief commander Zhu. They want to control the city so badly that they even disregard the insects outside the city. Sooner or later, there will be an internal conflict.
Mr. Chu we also need to prepare for the conflict. Compared to the cloaked man, the woman in the white dress seemed to be more ‘friendly’ to humankind. I suggest that we should join Zhu lingdie and use the woman in the white dress to suppress the cloaked man. It will buy us some time to reserve our strength.
We can watch them fight until the end!”
“Who are those people!? The world has already become like this, and they still want to fight each other? Do they think we have not lost enough people’s lives?” Yao Xiang was very quiet early on, but when he heard that the people in Jin Ling city were still fighting against each other at this time, he just couldn’t stand it.
“You are not them, how do you know what they really want? Maybe in their minds, the anti-world and the cubic object are much more important than human lives. To them, maybe we are no different than the insects outside!” Ding Yan said slowly.
“Once they find what they are looking for, they will probably just leave us to die!” Ding Yan sneered.
“They are not human, but those senior officials at GCH are human. Why are they messing around with them? Do they not care about the human future anymore?” said Yao Xiang.
“That question, we will need to ask Lady Zhu! She is the deputy chief commander Zhu’s daughter,” Ding Yan smiled while looking at Chu Yunsheng, who seemed to be thinking something.
“Let her in.”
Zhu Lingdie had been patiently waiting outside until she was let in.
“Commander Zhu, she told me why you are here. So just save everyone’s time, tell me who that woman is,” Chu Yunsheng still called her commander. After all, his gang was still in her regiment.
“That woman?” Zhu Lingdie frowned.
“Commander Zhu, don’t tell me that you have been watching the fight for so long, and you still don’t know who I am talking about. If you want to persuade me, at least, be sincere.” Chu Yunsheng also knitted his brows.
“Brother Chu, you may have misunderstood us. Indeed, I know something, but what I know may even be less than what you know. Although I am the daughter of the deputy chief commander, I still could not get access to a lot of cla.s.sified information.” Zhu Lingdie said with a bitter smile.
“Tell me what you know, including the anti-world and the cloaked man,” Chu Yunsheng said even more sternly. “We are both humans!” He suddenly added.
Zhu Lingdie looked at Chu Yunsheng and there was a slight surprise flashed past her eyes. After a moment of silence, she started to talk, “when the former commander-in-chief was still alive, and when we still had not resumed the contact with the capital, some people from the top of Jin Ling city started to have a second thought. Since Jin Ling city was heavily guarded, and there weren’t any insects inside the city, the insects outside the city were also not as dangerous as now, some people attempted to overthrow the old government and started to build their own, they wanted to establish their own orders.
In order to eliminate the increasing number of the rebel forces, the former commander-in-chief started to forcibly recruit dark warriors into the military in the name of fighting the insects for the first time. He hoped that he could use the force to eliminate them once for all.
However, as time pa.s.sed, he started to discover more and more GCH’s senior officials were involved in the rebellion. Not only could he not eliminate them, but the military forces were also infiltrated by more and more of the rebel forces. The rebel’s counterattack was the direct cause of the power of GCH to be split. It was the reason why three major headquarters became a thing later on.
It was at that time, a cloaked man you talked about appeared. He came to the former commander-in-chief and told him that he could help him to defeat the gradually increasing rebel force’s dark warriors. It was said that he had listed out a lot of conditions. I don’t know exactly what the conditions were, but I know one of those conditions; it was to use live human brains to feed red-sh.e.l.led insects. At that time, they said that they were doing it to study the insect’s habits and characteristics.
Because of the infiltration or maybe because of some other reasons, at that time, 10 major divisions had different opinions about eliminating the rebel forces. The former commander-in-chief realised that he could no longer control the military, so he reluctantly accepted the cloaked man’s conditions. Soon, the rebel forces were wiped out by the cloaked man, and the internal conflict was eventually over.
However, because of those secret conditions, the former commander-in-chief and the cloaked man never stopped arguing.
The cloaked man even started to hunt low-ranking dark warriors privately and used their brains to feed red-sh.e.l.led insects.
When the number of the missing dark warriors started to increase rapidly, it finally alerted a lot of people. A lot of dark warriors started to turn against GCH, they all thought that it was because many dark warriors lacked discipline, so it resulted in GCH executing the dark warriors privately. That is the truth behind the last major dark warrior’s conflict, and it is listed as cla.s.sified information.
After the conflict, the dispute between the former commander-in-chief and the cloaked man reached its peak. The cloaked man changed his mind and went to support the hidden rebel forces, which were led by Fang Yuehou. He attacked the former commander-in-chief and told outside that the former commander-in-chief was suddenly ill.
The new commander-in-chief we have now is just a puppet.
On the same night when the former commander-in-chief was sent to the hospital and when the chaos caused by the insects suddenly broke out inside the city. Fang Yuehou’s force started to slaughter all the forces that supported the former commander-in-chief.
It was at that time, the woman in the white dress appeared. She found my father and told my father that she would help us. I don’t know who she is, my father also never told me. But I know that that night, she had a fierce fight with the cloaked man. However, they both could not defeat each other, and in the end, they had a negotiation where Fang Yuehou needed to withdraw their forces and move them to the front line…
…
In terms of the anti-world you talked about, I don’t know anything about it. I have heard my father talking about that. It seemed like Jin Ling city is the entrance of a place that they have to go. You should go to GRD, professor Sun might know something about it.
….
Now you know that there are a lot of reasons behind it, it is not like what the rumours said, it is not just some ridiculous power struggle reasons, the world has changed, it is no longer the world we are familiar with. We are just trying to find a way to survive. Fang Yuehuo and my father just chose two different options…
… I’ll find time to arrange for you to meet with my father…”
….
After Zhu Lingdie left, Chu Yunsheng went to the roof to smoke cigarettes. He did not go and find professor Sun straightaway. He was just staring at the city center and thinking about something.
What she said had totally inverted the “history” he knew.
The chaotic world… The dark world… The Saha world… humans…
