Chapter 140
Chapter 140 – Settlement
Perhaps, this was the G.o.d’s way of taking care of mankind . Otherwise, with the enchanted beast’s strength in the wild, human beings would have no chance of survival .
“Who are you?” After the trio had killed a group of enchanted beast, Liu Xiyue, according to Cheng Yang’s orders rode Little White to the left side . She went over there to survey the area . While she was doing this, Cheng Yang and Niu Bing continued to march forward .
The duo had walked less than a hundred meters when suddenly a few people jumped out a broken wall on the right side .
These people were dressed in tattered clothing, had unkempt hair, and faces covered with dirt . They were a bit similar to war-time refugees . They looked very alert and vigilant .
Cheng Yang was pleasantly surprised . He didn’t expect to meet the survivors so soon . They had spare him the search . And the most important thing was that walking in the midst of this group of people was a person he knew very well . In the past lifetime, this person was also considered a small celebrity in the area surrounding Xiangcheng City . It’s just that two weren’t at all acquainted with one another .
“We are just people pa.s.sing by here . Are you the survivors of Yi Cheng?” Cheng Yang tried to make himself sound as friendly as possible . These people had been living in this depressing atmosphere for more than 20 days, so it was normal for their mental state to be strain . Hence, he doesn’t want to make any unexpected movements to startled the other side .
Among the group, a forty year old muscular man asked suspiciously, “If you’re referring the surviving humans as survivors, then I suppose we are survivors . There are monsters everywhere . Where did you came from? It’s not from a settlement, right?”
“Settlement?” Cheng Yang seems to recall where he heard this word from before . In the past lifetime, Cheng Yang sometimes heard this word coming from the mouth of the survivors that came to the main city in chats . This so-called settlement was nothing more than a temporary gathering place for these survivors that couldn’t transferred . However, after these survivors arrive at the main city, the settlements became a thing of history .
It would take another 10 days before
the survivors could go to the main city . After the first month comes to an end, G.o.ds’ rules would transmit all those that had still not yet transferred to a city where the main city was located in . This might be the second round of screening by the G.o.ds . The first screening process was to not die in the earthquake, while the second screening was to survive for 30 days in the apocalypse .
Hearing Cheng Yang’s doubts, the muscular man immediately said, “You haven’t heard about the settlement? In the city there are a few places where monster appearance are rare, therefore the majority of humans are concentrated in those places . ”
“Do you live in a settlement, too?” Cheng Yang immediately asked .
The muscular man shook his head in resentment, “The closest settlement to this place is occupied by a group of sc.u.mbag . They forced others to find food, while they lazily sit around to enjoy the fruits of the labor . We didn’t want to be exploited by them, so we left to look for another place to hide . In any case, these monsters are unlikely to run around everywhere . Apart from the risk of searching for food, there’s not much danger being out here . ”
From this short conversation, it could be concluded that this muscular man was a simpleton . If it was anyone else that Chang Yang was questioning, it would have already arouse suspicions from others .
Cheng Yang continued to ask, “How many people does this settlement have?”
The muscular man was about to answer him when suddenly a person jerked him from the side, and gave him a wink .
“Why are you asking about this? Who the h.e.l.l are you guys?” The muscular man seemed to come to have finally regained his senses . He immediately asked .
Cheng Yang could only forced a smile . Wasn’t this way too late to notice?
“Didn’t you say the settlement is occupied by a group of sc.u.m? Why does it matter if you tell it to us or not?” said Niu Bing
The muscular man answered, “No . Although we hate these people very much, but they haven’t jeopardize the overall safety of the survivors . But if you have any bad intentions and I told you of their situation, wouldn’t this be killing those innocent survivors? ”
The moment his voice fell, Liu Xiyue riding the white tiger instantly came to the front of the
the crowd from the far distance .
“Monster . …” The first person to notice the white tiger received a sudden fright and instantly turned pale . Both his legs began trembling continuously .
Several other people also discovered the white tiger, but when they wanted to escape, the white tiger has already came at their side . At this time, including the muscular man, all the members felt their legs grew weak . Not to mention escaping, they couldn’t even muster up the strength to stand .
It would be a lie to say such a big tiger doesn’t scare them .
“There’s no need to be afraid . This is my pet . ” said Cheng Yang as he tried to calm them down .
After the initial shock, these people saw that such a big monster indeed didn’t have the tendency to bite people . Moreover, there was a beautiful girl sitting on the tiger’s back . It seems it really was just a trained pet like Cheng Yang had mentioned .
“It really doesn’t eat people?” The muscular man stood up on shaky legs, still staring the white tiger with dread .
Cheng Yang nodded seriously, “As long as it does not receive my orders, it will not attack others . Isn’t that right, Little White?”
White Tiger promptly nodded, because it was afraid its slow action might cause it to suffer .
“Who the h.e.l.l are you?” After the fear in the muscular man’s heart had subsided, he once again looked at Cheng Yang with a suspicious and alert gaze . ” The meaning behind Cheng Yang’s words were very clear . If he command Little White to attack, this white tiger would absolutely show them no mercy .
Cheng Yang said, “I believe that everyone heard the voice that came three times from air since the arrival of this disaster, right?”
The group immediately nodded . They had been very puzzled about this .
Cheng Yang said, “We came from Xiangcheng City . This disaster has swept over the entire world and made it into a game . People that transferred through a profession statue are called profession . In addition, these profession statues only appear in some of the cities . And it just so happens that in Xiangcheng City are such profession statues . ”
“So you’re saying you are … . a profession?” asked a man in his thirties .
Cheng Yang nodded in response, “We are indeed profession .
profession . However, we didn’t become a profession through a profession statue in Xiangcheng City’s main city . ” Next, Cheng Yang told them about the field station . There was no need to conceal it, because he was going to bring these people back to Heshan Village .
Many people in the group appeared quite excited upon hearing Cheng Yang’s answer . One of them asked, “Does that mean we can become like Superman in the future?”
Cheng Yang smilingly said, “As long as you upgrade the rank, it shouldn’t be a problem . ”
The man tightly clenched his fists and said, “Great! Once I become a profession, I will make sure to annihilate all the monsters in the world . ”
Cheng Yang ignored the guy that was daydreaming and turned to the muscular man, he asked, “How about it? Can you tell us the details about the settlement now?”
Instead of answering Cheng Yang’s questioned, the guy asked, “Can you take us to Xiangcheng City’s main city or to your territory?”
Cheng Yang laughed, “You don’t have to go to Xiangcheng City’s main city . As for my territory, just a while ago we occupied a territory altar right outside of Yi Cheng . You can go there to transfer to a profession . In addition, those people that are in the settlement can also transfer to profession, excluding the group of sc.u.ms you were talking about . ”
“Let us discuss first . ” They immediately huddled to the side and began whispering .
Cheng Yang looked at these people who were in a discussion seven to eight meters away, and almost couldn’t help laughing out loud . Although these people’s voice weren’t loud, but with his enhanced hearing he could captured every word without failure .
From their conversation, Cheng Yang knows that these people really care about the dangers he might bring to the settlement . However, there was also another reason for their scruples . They weren’t the only ones to leave the settlement . In addition to them, there were about a hundred people that were hiding in a bas.e.m.e.nt not far away at the moment . Before they were clear whether Cheng Yang and the others’ intention was good or not, they didn’t dare to speak of it .
After their discussion, it was finally decided to first look to see whether the territory altar and profession statues that Cheng Yang said existed . If there was such a treasure trove, they would tell Chengwould tell Cheng Yang about the settlement and take the group of people that had left the settlement back with them to the station . This couldn’t be helped . They had yet to completely put down their guards against Cheng Yang and the others . Especially the white tiger, it’s presence was too much of a deterrent .
Cheng Yang didn’t have the patience to accompany them around in circles . He was willing to explain so much to the other side now was because, on one hand it doesn’t take much time; and on the other hand, it was because he valued the muscular man . If it weren’t for this, he would have just spoken a few words and not care about whether they believe it or not .
Therefore, when these people turned their heads to say their opinions, Cheng Yang directly interrupted them, “I heard what you said just now and I don’t want to explain too much of it . Go bring out the rest of those people and have them join us to the station . Now the field station is only level 1 . It has only 80 transfer quotas, which is also the current limit to the number of people we can rescue . If you do not want to go, I will leave to find another batch of people . I think Yi Cheng has plenty of people that are willing to follow me to the station . ”
The group of men suddenly became worried . At this time, they couldn’t attend to why Cheng Yang could hear their conversation . The muscular man immediately said, “Sir, I am going to take them out and go to the altar together . ”
After saying that, he didn’t wait for Cheng Yang to respond and quickly pulled the rest of the members, briskly walking towards the rear . Even though those people still want to say something, but under the muscular man’s prestige, they all kept shut .
Liu Xiyue had no opportunity to speak when she came over . Now that these people were leaving, she immediately asked “Lord, what’s going on with those people?”
At once, Cheng Yang told her how they met those group of people .
“Lord, why did you let them all leave? What are you going to do if they don’t come back?” said Liu Xiyue .
“Rest a.s.sured! They’ll be back . ” said Cheng Yang indifferently .
