Apocalypse Arrival - chapter 218

Rongcheng was located at the main road of transportation. Even in the apocalypse, there were still many people who had escaped from various places and passed through this place. During the period of information silencing, these people brought all kinds of news from all over the world.

Song Ping was a young man with a wide range of friends and a local, and he was familiar with all walks of life. After being out for a long time, he got all the news that Chu Qianxun wanted.

From his mouth, Chu Qianxun learned that the North and the Northwest each had strong local powers rising. Shennai’s current sphere of influence was mainly near the Magic Capital, instead of rapidly expanding to all parts of the country like in the previous life.

And the organizer of Rongcheng Base was Song Ping’s uncle Song Sanqian. As several surrounding bases were successively wiped by demons, survivors flocked there, and the strength of teams of all sizes far surpassed Song Sanqian, the local village chief. Therefore, Song Sanqian was no more than a managerial name. He controlled the sanitary conditions in the base and had no right to decide on fights.

Whenever there was a major event, it had to be negotiated and decided by the leaders of several large groups.

“In that case, there are many religious groups in such a base,” Chu Qianxun said.

“Yeah, yeah, there are dozens of them, big and small. They believe in different doctrines.” Song Ping was always a little restrained toward the girl who was a little younger than him. “Several churches such as the World, Demon God, etc., each have a large number of believers and a group of powerful ability holders.”

Chu Qianxun supported her chin and looked at him with a smile, “Then do you believe in any sect?”

“I don’t really believe in any.” Song Ping touched his head, a little uncertain about Chu Qianxun’s meaning, and used a compromise tone, “I don’t know but I feel that the people in these churches are a little bit kind, hehehe.”

Chu Qianxun nodded, “Are there any high-level demons near Rongcheng? Those above fourth-order?”

Song Ping’s eyes lit up, with a little uncontrollable excitement, “Yes! I don’t know what order, but twenty kilometers north from here, there is a cave. We call it the north cave. There is a group of demons living in it.”

“A group of demons?”

“It’s the kind of demon that is not big, has no eyes, and is clever in groups.”

“Blasphemer?” Chu Qianxun frowned.

“Yes, it turns out that you also know that. It’s the name given by the beloved God. They live in the cave and have taken many people, and the nearby bases were all caught by them…”

“Song Ping, what are you grinning about again?” Song Sanqian, who had just entered the house, gave Song Ping a glance, interrupted his nephew, and turned to smile at Chu Qianxun, “In that cave, there are so many low-level ones, but there are a lot of them. It is very troublesome as they hide in winding caves.”

He waved his hand to let the people who followed put up the various foods, fruits and vegetables he had brought, “We don’t have many good things here. This is just a little bit of our heart, please accept it.”

Chu Qianxun’s finger clicked on the table. She knew that the former village chief didn’t want to let her party go to the north cave.

The combat effectiveness of the Blasphemer alone was not strong. Once they have formed a group, it would be particularly troublesome to deal with. They would not only divide the work and cooperate, but also concentrate on raising a high-level leader to command the battle in a unified manner.

The most abhorrent thing about that kind of demon was that they would capture and keep humans in captivity. High-level blasphemers also learned to infect ordinary humans through intensive contact, and made humans demonize and become their companions, or advance and become their food.

At the same time, the blasphemers, such intelligent demons, were especially vengeful, and the bases that had provoked them would be subject to repeated revenge.

The base was near Rongcheng, and Chu Qianxun somewhat understood Song Sanqian’s fear that her party would provoke revenge from blasphemers.

Song Sanqian was a bit older, with wrinkles all over his face, like a simple and sincere village cadre, he spoke with a sincere expression, “Lujia village is ten kilometers away from us. I heard that a fourth-demon appeared there. It’s just that the village is very weird. There was no one in the village the next morning, but people passing by often saw the dead walking around in the village. No one dared to approach it, and we never knew what was going on.”

“What kind of fourth-order demon is it?” Chu Qianxun became interested.

“I heard that it was a fish floating in the air. There is a young man riding on the fish’s back. It appears from time to time, no one here dares to provoke it, and I don’t know what ability it has.”

Devourer.

That was a demon of at least fourth-order and above.

Chu Qianxun became happy for a moment. After taking the fourth-order Fischer crystal core at the gate of the base, she had reached the last stage of the fourth-order. Maybe she wouldn’t have to go to the Magic Capital to find a fifth-order demon and advance to fifth-order. 

“Let’s go and see,” Chu Qianxun stood up, greeted the members of the upper team and walked out.

“Uncle, since there are such powerful ability holders here, why don’t you invite them to destroy the demons in the North Cave?” Song Ping grabbed Song Sanqian’s arm, “We should mobilize everyone to raise funds and invite this powerful team, to destroy the demon, not…”

“What do you know? Shut up.” Song Sanqian covered Song Ping’s mouth and stamped his feet, “Back then, don’t you remember how Yurong Base and Jin’an Base were destroyed by demons? Were they not strong? What’s more, these people are just staying for a few days, even if the demons are killed, when they are gone, how can we survive?”

Gao Yan, who was walking outside the door, asked Chu Qianxun about another thing, “What do you plan to do with Yue Wenhua? Since we didn’t kill him, it will be troublesome for us to carry him all the way. He may run away.”

“Let him run away. I don’t want him to be an enemy. I had planted the seeds of doubt in his heart. After returning to Shennai, this kind of doubt will only get deeper.”
