The combat effectiveness of the three awakened ones should not be underestimated. If it weren't for the three flying blood corpses in the sky that kept creating new beast-type blood corpses, those beast-type blood corpses would have been cleared out by the three of them long ago.
Now, the threat of the flying blood corpses has disappeared, and with the intervention of Chen Cheng, they easily eliminated all the beast-type blood corpses and were able to breathe a sigh of relief.
During the break, Chen Cheng suddenly discovered that among these three awakened people, there was an acquaintance of his.
"Boy, what are you looking at?"
The awakened one was using tissue repair fluid to heal his wounds. Feeling Shen Cheng's gaze, he turned his head and glared at Shen Cheng.
Well, as cold as ever, looking down on people as always instead of looking them in the eye.
Isn’t this the old man who told him the legend of the golden dragon when he first went to the Western Territory and met in the village at the foot of Kunshan?
That old man with the crutches is actually an Awakened One? He's really well hidden!
Shen Cheng couldn't help but said, "Old man, are you still an awakener?"
"What? I can't be an awakened one?"
The old man curled his lips. Even though Shen Cheng saved his life, he didn't look at Shen Cheng in a good light.
Because after inquiring for some time, the old man also knew that Shen Cheng went to Kunshan and brought back a story about Long Huanya.
What does this mean? This means that Chen Cheng has abducted the guardian deity that his ancestors have worshipped for generations!
How can this be tolerated?
Especially when he thought about how Shen Cheng had just saved his life, the old man felt as sad as when his mother died.
Shen Cheng didn't care about these and continued chatting with the old man:
"Hey, old man, are you acquainted with my grandfather?"
When the old man asked him his name, Shen Cheng thought of this.
In particular, the old man also specifically confirmed the word "Cheng" in his name.
This name was given to me by my great-grandfather. The old man paid special attention to his own name, so it is inevitable that people will think of this.
Hearing this, the old man nodded and said: "When I first saw you, I felt that you looked a bit like that old guy. I didn't expect that you were really his descendant."
Shen Cheng asked curiously: "What is your relationship with my grandfather?"
"Chen Yu is my senior brother."
As they chatted, the old man opened up: "When I was young, I learned some martial arts from your great-grandfather, but I returned to my hometown after two years.
After returning home, I began to study the martial arts I learned from your great-grandfather, and before I knew it, I became an Awakened One."
Hearing this, Shen Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly. As expected, those who can become awakened are more or less gifted in certain aspects.
Having said that, I always see my grandfather practicing martial arts alone at home, but I didn’t expect that he has so many old friends.
And each of them is either an awakened one or a high-ranking official.
Along the way, I don’t know how much of my grandfather’s connections I have used.
"The first time I saw you, you were still on crutches. I never imagined you were an Awakened One."
"From the beginning to the end, I never felt that I was worthy of the responsibility of an Awakener. Becoming an Awakener was also an unintentional act. Originally, I thought that my martial arts skills would never be put to good use in my lifetime, but..."
At this point, the old man glanced at the red moss not far away and sighed: "No one could have imagined that something like this would happen. In this situation, no one can remain immune."
"Don't worry, old man."
Shen Cheng smiled and said, "It will be over soon."
“…”
After the old man and the young man lay on the ground in silence for a while, the old man stood up, dusted off the dust on his body, stretched his muscles, and said to Chen Cheng:
"Go and do your thing. I'll leave the rest to you."
Shen Cheng grinned: "Don't worry!"
…
In the following period, although there was no emergency communication requesting support, Shen Cheng still took the Wolf Team to spontaneously assist the armies of various cities in fighting against the blood corpses.
After the blood corpses developed the ability to mutate, mutated blood corpses have become common in various cities, but fortunately, after the battle line was shrunk, China has ensured that there will be awakened people in every city.
There are just one or two mutated blood corpses, and the awakened ones are fully capable of dealing with them.
It’s not impossible to have more, but it will take more effort.
Unless, like what happened just now, the blood corpse is able to develop specifications that allow for coordinated combat among different arms.
Until, Shen Cheng and his group arrived at the city where Shen Yu was stationed.
Because Shen Yu insisted on guarding a city by himself, and did not even need people to rotate guards, the higher-ups had no choice but to give the city where the two pieces of red moss were closest to each other to Shen Yu.
When Shen Cheng and his group saw Chen Yu, Chen Yu was holding a long stick. No blood corpse could get close to Chen Yu. Chen Yu standing there looked like a god of war.
Except for the first time when the battle line was contracted, Shen Yu rested for a while, and Shen Yu has not rested until now.
Shen Yu hasn't slept for several days and nights.
As soon as Shen Cheng saw Shen Yu, he knew that Shen Yu was trying his best.
It’s not that Shen Yu used all his abilities, these blood corpses were totally unqualified for Shen Yu.
What Shen Yu was fighting for was his own energy and physical strength.
This was the first time Shen Cheng saw Shen Yu fighting so hard.
"grandfather……"
Coming in front of Shen Yu, Shen Cheng moved his lips and spoke.
"Um?"
As if Shen Yu had just discovered Shen Cheng, he turned his head and said, "Xiao Cheng? I heard that you have been performing very well recently. You have done a good job. I am very pleased!"
If it were a normal day, Shen Cheng would be so close to Shen Yu that Shen Yu should have noticed it a long time ago...
Shen Cheng couldn't help but said: "Grandpa, you go down and rest first, leave this place to us."
Shen Yu shook his head and stood there stubbornly: "I can still hold on. You guys go support other cities."
Shen Yu understood that as long as he remained standing here, the army could disperse more forces to strengthen the defense of other cities.
Shen Yu asked himself if he had the ability and even the responsibility.
"But Grandpa, if you continue to hold on like this, you won't be able to hold on for much longer!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yu immediately puffed his beard and glared, "Who said that? I'm standing here today, and I'll stand here tomorrow too! As long as the blood corpse exists, I'll keep standing here! If you let a blood corpse through, I'll chop off my head!"
Seeing that Shen Yu was as stubborn as a donkey, Shen Cheng gritted his teeth and suddenly raised the Seven Profound Spear!
