Dawn of a New Era

Chapter 318: The Bad Giant


This battle made Chen Shouyi feel that his strength had undergone an earth-shattering transformation.

Explosive power like a volcanic eruption, reactions swift as lightning, lightning-fast thinking speed, and the hidden support of willpower made this battle seem effortless, as easy as reaching into a pouch.

In fact, that Barbarian did not appear as weak as shown.

The strength could completely compare to that of an ordinary Martial Artist, and after going berserk, even a Senior Martial Artist would need to take it seriously.

However, now in Chen Shouyi's hands, they couldn't withstand a single move.

Compared to the last battle with the God of Hunting under the presence of the Saint, his combat power has now increased several times over.

Thirty to forty meters were leapt across by Chen Shouyi.

"Bang!" A sound.

Debris flew in all directions.

Chen Shouyi grasped the window frame heavily with both hands, and the concrete was like brittle cookies, pierced deeply by his fingers.

Then he exerted force with his hands, his body soared more than three meters high, gripping the window frame again.

He climbed twelve floors continuously, reaching the rooftop again.

...

The Lieutenant Colonel, seeing Chen Shouyi's figure appear on the rooftop, snapped awake as if from a dream and quickly reminded the helicopter pilot: "Quickly, descend!"

"Yes, sir!"

The helicopter shook slightly and began to descend slowly.

The Lieutenant Colonel couldn't help but glance at the time.

Unfortunately, he couldn't remember when the other had jumped down.

It seemed like just now.

He even doubted whether it was half a minute, feeling as if he had just entered the building, and after a few seconds, he came out again.

So powerful!

So terrifying!

Before long, Chen Shouyi boarded the helicopter again, bringing with him a faint bloody scent, as if a fierce beast had entered the cabin, causing it to quickly quiet down, with only the humming engine noise resonating.

Perhaps because the atmosphere was too awkward, the Lieutenant Colonel's mouth moved, seeming to want to say something to lighten the mood, but after a long preparation, he didn't say a word.

The helicopter turned direction and flew all the way until a few minutes later, Chen Shouyi saw a vast ruin with a large number of weapons deployed around it, heavily guarded, and he broke the silence, curiously asking: "Is that the spatial passage?"

"Yes, it is!" The Lieutenant Colonel hurriedly said, then added: "Behind the passage, there's still a stationed army of Barbarians, and even now, Barbarians occasionally come out to scout the outside situation."

It seems they don't know that the Barbarian God is already dead, Chen Shouyi thought to himself.

The command center is nearby.

The helicopter quickly landed on a street below.

This place was completely in ruins.

The trees on both sides were broken, and all the windows smashed, the surrounding buildings, some completely collapsed, some stacked like blocks, with one building still blazing with fire, thick smoke billowing.

Chen Shouyi even saw a shattered tank embedded in one side of a building, with a huge piece of armor teetering precariously.

Although he had seen this from above, the different perspective gave him a completely different feeling.

"The command center is not far!" The Lieutenant Colonel quietly reminded Chen Shouyi, seeing him standing still for a long time.

Chen Shouyi withdrew his gaze: "Then let's go."

The air was filled with the strong stench of corpses, and the road was littered with bodies and some dismembered limbs and organs, decomposed and blackened, soaked with grease.

Many bodies, bloated like balloons under the blazing sun, seemed ready to burst at any moment.

Even someone like Chen Shouyi, accustomed to seeing death, felt heavy-hearted and slightly uncomfortable at this scene.

...

The commander of the local Pingzhou garrison, a middle-aged man in his forties, looked dull and weary, as if he hadn't slept for days.

But upon seeing Chen Shouyi, he still forced himself to be spirited and came forward to greet him.

"Chief Consultant, I'm Luo Hua Army, I've long admired your name, and finally I've managed to invite you here."

The provincial chief security consultant, although without a specific rank, is generally considered departmental-level, equivalent to a Major General in the army, on the same level as him.

Moreover, this time there is something to request from the other.

The two shook hands.

"Commander Luo, you're too kind, I'm truly undeserving!" Chen Shouyi replied courteously.

"During wartime, we'll keep things simple without superficial formalities. All in all, I'm very thankful you came; now I can rest assured. Your accommodation is arranged, and I'll have someone take you to look at it. If you're not satisfied with anything, feel free to mention it."

Chen Shouyi didn't refuse and, in the company of a female communicator, he left the command center with his luggage, heading to a nearby hotel.

The hotel was considered mid-range, though it was probably the best-preserved hotel in the vicinity.

The lobby of the hotel clearly hadn't been cleaned for days, with a thick layer of dust on the floor, showing only a few scattered footprints:

"Is there nobody staying here?" Chen Shouyi asked in confusion.

The female communicator, nervous from Chen Shouyi's taciturn demeanor, quickly replied: "Y-yes, but I specially cleaned your room this morning, definitely hygienic!"

She was young, with an oval face, looking demure and quiet, yet facing this provincial security chief consultant, who even the usually stern and assertive Commander had to warmly receive with a low posture, she was so nervous she stuttered.

"Relax a bit, where are the other Martial Artists of Pingzhou City?" Chen Shouyi asked.

"In another place, staying with the soldiers," the female communicator explained.

This must be privilege, Chen Shouyi thought to himself.

After becoming a Martial Artist, his status was completely different from ordinary Martial Artists.

Martial Artists, even Great Martial Artists, remain in a weak position against the military, but Martial Artists already hold a somewhat equal conversation status.

The two arrived on the fifth floor, with the female communicator hurrying ahead to open the door for him. Inside, it was spotlessly clean, with a scent of air freshener: "I don't know if you're satisfied. Every morning, I'll come to clean."

"Very satisfied, but there's no need to clean, I can handle it myself!" Chen Shouyi looked around, placing his luggage down.

"But..."

"No buts, alright, you can go now!" Chen Shouyi interrupted.

The female communicator was too frightened to speak, hurriedly exiting the room.

Chen Shouyi looked frustrated, was his tone really that harsh?

Am I really that scary?

After the other left, he closed the door.

Then released Shell Lady, discovering she was already awake.

"Stupid Giant, I almost suffocated," Shell Lady complained.

"I just checked, you seem fine?" Chen Shouyi laughed, poking her with his finger, making her body sway.

"Hmph, bad Giant." Shell Lady stepped back, huffing angrily.

She then jumped down from his palm, quickly dissipating her anger and curiously looking around: "You changed your sleeping place again, did you bring my jewels?"

"Yes, I brought them!"

"How about my clothes?"

"Yes, I brought them all."

Thankfully, they're small items, otherwise, he really wouldn't have bothered.

He took her things out of the luggage and placed them on the bed: "I'll be going out in a while, you stay here and play by yourself, I'll be back after sunset."

"Can't the Little Dot go?" Shell Lady looked up, eager to go along.

"I'm going to kill bad Giants, do you want to come?"

"I'm very obedient, I'll play by myself." Shell Lady immediately replied seriously.
