Chapter 575: Chapter 330: Setting Off and Abnormal Fluctuations_2
But Chi didn’t mind. Instead, he persuaded Chen Sheng again, urging him to let go of the idea of defying the Heavenly People.
In his view,
Chen Sheng could save more Homo sapiens by preserving his own life.
There were other Second Generation Heavenly People like him who were close to Homo sapiens; they weren’t unique.
Perhaps with their help, Homo sapiens could still preserve a glimmer of hope for survival.
Although the First Generation Heavenly People could control some of their bodies and minds,
they couldn’t control all of them.
Otherwise, Chi wouldn’t have been able to help humans time and again, and still be alive and kicking now.
“Shut up.”
Unfortunately,
the option of living in disgrace was never in Chen Sheng’s dictionary.
He coldly scolded, causing Chi’s voice to come to an abrupt halt.
“So you’re saying…the First Generation Heavenly People won’t wake up so soon?”
Agitation appeared for a brief moment but was soon withdrawn from Chen Sheng’s mind.
For him,
this kind of negative situation wasn’t helpful and would only affect his judgment.
After calming down to think,
Chen Sheng realized
that it wasn’t the time for him to be agitated just yet.
“To be exact,”
“they’re just not in a hurry.”
“Our slumber as Second Generation Heavenly People is more like being affected by the slumber of the First Generation Heavenly People, making us unable to stay awake for long.”
“But in emergencies, we can still wake up.”
“The First Generation Heavenly People are just freer than us.”
“As I mentioned before,”
“the priority of killing all Homo sapiens has long been postponed over the years.”
“The First Generation Heavenly People seem to be just waiting for a certain moment to arrive.”
Chi was a little puzzled, not understanding the source of Chen Sheng’s question.
In three to five days, or no more than seven days
whether early or late,
the First Generation Heavenly People would awaken.
Even if the time they were waiting for hadn’t arrived, they would still enjoy slaughtering Homo sapiens as they did in the past.
What could change in just a few days?
However,
despite the confusion,
Chi had already seen that Chen Sheng was the type to resort to action without a word.
Chi may not die, but it would still hurt.
So,
he still chose to honestly answer Chen Sheng’s question.
“That’s good enough.”
Chen Sheng had no intention of telling Chi about his plan.
Since there was still plenty of time for him to improve his strength,
his next step was
to take action as soon as possible.
As for the remaining doubts,
Chen Sheng decided to ask on the way back.
Thinking of this,
he picked Chi up from the seawater.
With a roar,
waves swept over them again.
Chen Sheng and Chi’s figures vanished on the spot.
—
Kyoto.
Martial Arts Association.
President’s Office.
“That’s pretty much the situation.”
Chen Sheng shared the information he had obtained with Li Wuji.
Of course,
he omitted the parts about the Heavenly People’s specific strengths.
Even if he told the other party, it would only increase their troubles.
Better not to mention it.
“Have you asked about the matter of you being noticed by that existence?”
“I did.”
Chen Sheng nodded.
“Although Chi is the only Second Generation Heavenly Person to have met that existence because of my relationship, he knows nothing about my information.”
“Not only Chi, but all Second and Third Generation Heavenly People are completely ignorant of it. It’s as if their memories have been forcibly wiped clean.”
As Chen Sheng talked,
Li Wuji’s frown deepened.
It was only now that he knew most of his past understanding of the Heavenly People was wrong.
About the First Generation Heavenly People’s goals and what the existence wanted.
These things were shrouded in too many mysteries, which they needed to unearth.
But the problem was,
Li Wuji didn’t even know what he should do to get closer to the truth step by step.
“Leave it to me.”
Perhaps Chen Sheng saw Li Wuji’s troubles,
he lightly tapped the tabletop.
“I’ll figure this all out.”
“After all, the Heavenly People are just a small fry, right?”
“Who gets full from eating appetizers? ”
Chen Sheng said with a smile.
His attitude remained as calm as ever, as if nothing could baffle him.
Influenced by Chen Sheng, Li Wuji felt a little more relaxed inside.
He smiled slightly.
“Is there anything I can help you with?”
Li Wuji knew that if it was merely to inform him of the news, Chen Sheng would not have come to the office.
Presumably,
there was something he needed him to do.
“If I’m guessing correctly, the early awakening of the Heavenly People is not an isolated case, right?”
“That’s right.”
Li Wuji nodded slightly.
Before Chen Sheng returned, he had already exchanged intelligence with the other two countries through a video conference.
During their exploration of the Slumbering Land, although there were very few cases.
Indeed,
Under the surveillance of the three forces, a few Slumbering Lands had experienced energy fluctuations of different levels.
After Li Wuji shared the data they collected from this operation,
the scientific researchers quickly discovered that the energy fluctuations in the Slumbering Land had more than a 60% similarity to the energy fluctuations they had collected this time.
This data meant that,
There might be other Heavenly People, like Red Mist, who had awakened early in these Slumbering Lands.
During the time Li Wuji and Chen Sheng talked, the transcendent individuals from the other two countries had already rushed to the Slumbering Lands.
As for the Martial Arts Association,
Before Chen Sheng appeared, Li Wuji had already arranged personnel to go there.
It wasn’t a suicide mission.
In the previous operation, the reason why Red Mist was able to silently control the three of Li Wuji was not only due to their negligence but also because they weren’t familiar enough with Heavenly People.
If it was just a third-generation Heavenly Person, Li Wuji was confident that the three of them could suppress them together.
Even if things reached the worst-case scenario,
he had already prepared to minimize casualties.
As the President of the Martial Arts Association,
Li Wuji felt that he couldn’t, or at least he shouldn’t, be unable to do anything without Chen Sheng by his side.
Chen Sheng would deal with powerful enemies,
and he,
at the very least, should be able to help Chen Sheng clean up the weaklings and eliminate concerns.
For this reason,
Li Wuji had already made a detailed plan and sufficient preparations for this exploration mission in the shortest time possible.
“There are a few abnormalities on our side.”
“Two places.
“Tell me their locations.”
“I’ll handle it.”
“I still have some experiments to do.”
As expected,
Just as Li Wuji had thought, Chen Sheng was prepared to handle the two abnormalities on his own.
He shook his head slowly.
“The two locations are extremely far apart, and it takes time to delve into the Slumbering Lands.”
“You take care of one, and I’ll take care of the other.”
“I—”
Hearing this,
Chen Sheng was instinctively about to refuse.
He hadn’t forgotten how Li Wuji and the other two had fared against Red Mist before.
“Don’t worry.”
“If I can’t handle it, I’ll do my best to control the situation, help you buy time, and not cause any unnecessary casualties.”
“As for my safety, you don’t need to worry.”
At this point,
Li Wuji pointed to his head and smiled.
“After all, my life is still in your hands.”
Looking at Li Wuji’s actions,
Chen Sheng suddenly realized.
If the other party hadn’t mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten.
The middle-aged-looking Li Wuji standing in front of him was just a part of his soul.
The main part of his soul was still with Xiao Hei.
Losing a part of his soul was not a big deal for Li Wuji.
Moreover, he could directly transmit the information he had to Xiao Hei.
With that in mind,
Chen Sheng finally let his guard down.
“Alright.”
“Then let’s decide on that.”
As soon as his words fell,
the well-prepared Li Wuji pushed the phone-like device on the tabletop towards Chen Sheng.
“This display screen records the locations of the abnormal energy fluctuations and has a real-time tracking function.”
“Although I’ve already issued orders to the local Martial Arts Association to conduct drone and other equipment reconnaissance,”
“if the situation changes when you arrive, this display screen can quickly collect information from the Slumbering Lands and help you track the enemy.”
Excellent!
Chen Sheng’s eyes lit up, and he directly picked up the palm-sized display screen.
The screen showed a radar-like green gridline.
A red mist lit up in the corner of the screen.
Obviously,
that was the direction of the abnormal energy fluctuations.
“Let’s go.”
Seeing this,
Chen Sheng waved, and his figure disappeared from the spot.
Not wasting any more time, Li Wuji also took out a similar display screen from his pocket.
The Slumbering Land he needed to explore was in another direction, although it wasn’t as far as Chen Sheng’s, it still required time.
Confirming the direction,
Whoosh!
When the airflow dissipated,
there was no one left in the office.
