Step on the Star - C3

Zhong Shan was hollowed out. There was a huge space inside, filled with modern equipment, which surprised hundreds of evolved people.

As evolved men get stronger and stronger, ordinary firearms are not even as useful as cold weapons. Plus, with many weapons depots destroyed, being able to equip standardized steel sabers has proven that the torture camp is not simple at all.

At this moment, a few men and women were laughing as they looked down beside a glass window.

“I wonder if we can recruit a few useful ones this time. Even if they can’t reach the Mortal Realm, they shouldn’t be too weak.” A middle-aged man spoke in a muffled voice.

“Don’t think too much about it. Mortal level isn’t that easy to reach. The captain of this squad was already arranged by the Discipline Saint. Neither of us have been assigned one.” The charming woman said unhappily.

“It’s not impossible. It’s not easy to protect tens of thousands of survivors from far away. I value these people very much. Don’t give them all to me.” The young man on the other side laughed.

“Stop dreaming. Let’s see what Feng Hong will do. This time, he’s the instructor. Bighead will definitely be taken away by him.” The middle-aged man said.

All of them were battalion captains, with 80,000 evolved men. Only those who reached the Earth Realm could become captains, and those that did become captains. In Jinling, they were the overlords of a region, only under the status of the Heaven’s Punishment Mountain.

For the millions of survivors in Jinling, the Punishment Sage was not a common sight.

“I heard that the Snow Woman under the command of Sage Luo Sheng is going to Jinling and will spar with us. Who are you planning to fight?” the charming woman suddenly asked, looking at the people beside her with a smile.

The few of them were quiet and had no intention of continuing.

The charming woman laughed, “Rumor has it that Luo Sheng declared the Snow Woman’s Earth Level invincible, do you really not plan to take a look?”

The few of them still did not speak.

The charming woman pursed her lips and smiled, not saying anything more.

Luo Sheng, Bai Yixue, had founded the Blue Battalion. Although he was on par with the Seven Saints of the Heaven Punisher Zhou Mountain, his status was still higher than Zhou Mountain.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Seven Saints were of equal status, but only a small minority knew that the Seven Saints were divided into the Upper Three Saints and the Lower Four Saints. Luo Shengxue was one of the Three Saints, while Zhou Shan was one of the Lower Four Saints.

On the square, one evolved person after another was examined. This was mainly because of the many virus mutations that occurred after the apocalypse, especially the zombies, which were very difficult to treat. The punishment camp had to ensure that all the evolved people weren’t infected, otherwise it would be very dangerous.

Soon, it was Lu Yin’s turn.

As the nurse began to fill out his personal information, Lu Yin’s eyes flashed, and his body suddenly became blurry. In the next instant, he returned to normal, and no one could see clearly. Only the color of his blood changed a little, as if it had a tinge of purple in it, but it quickly returned to normal.

“Is it Lu Yin?” “Please wait a moment, it will be ready soon,” the nurse said to Lu Yin with a smile.

Lu Yin nodded, “Thank you.” Finished speaking, he walked to the other side.

After a period of time, almost all of the 500 evolved people had been tested. There was no problem at all.

Not long after, a middle-aged man in dark military uniform walked over. As he approached, he felt a sense of pressure. All the evolved men looked at him in surprise.

Zizi

The ground split open as a powerful energy swept across, shocking all the evolved people.

“Earth, Earth, Earth Tremor, Earth Tremor!” Someone exclaimed. All the evolved men looked at the middle-aged man with both fear and envy.

The middle-aged man walked more than ten meters away from Lu Yin and the rest, saying loudly, “My name is Feng Hong, commander of the Punishment Battalion. Now, I want to ask, if any of you are unwilling to join the Punishment Battalion, you can leave.”

Hundreds of evolved people looked at each other, and then people started walking out.

Although the Disciplinary Battalion was powerful, it had to be controlled. Many people had never been in the army and it was normal for them not to want to join. Lu Yin was one of them.

Nearly two hundred people, or nearly half, refused to join the camp.

“By joining the camp, not only will your safety be guaranteed, your loved ones will also be sent to the vicinity of Mount Zhong. Every month, you will be allocated energy crystals for cultivation, and you will also receive the battle skills taught to you by the Punishment Saint.”

“What is a battle skill?” Someone asked curiously.

Feng Hong said coldly, “The skill that can unleash 200% of your strength is a battle skill. The offensive skill of the Punishment Saint is the Hurricane Slash. There aren’t many people in the world that can block it. You should have seen it before.”

The eyes of all the evolved men were filled with excitement. Of course, they had all seen how powerful it could be after destroying the mutated vine with a single slash, causing the earth to crack and the clouds to change.

“Can we learn the Wind Slash?” Someone asked expectantly.

Feng Hong coldly replied, “Anyone can learn, as long as they are acknowledged by the Punishment Saint.”

Upon hearing these words, the evolved people who were planning to leave hesitated and returned to their original group one after another. There were less than 50 people who were intending to leave, including Lu Yin.

Feng Hong waved his hand, “Take them away.”

Soon, almost fifty evolved people were brought out of Zhong Shan.

Lu Yin turned around and saw that this place would not be peaceful for long.

There were many survivors and evolved people gathered outside of Zhong Shan. When Lu Yin and the others came out, they all gathered around, “Brother, do you want to buy a house? “You can find me for a fair price.”

“Brother, do you want a tour guide? Don’t look at me like that, there are too many zombies and monsters outside of Jinling City. Without a guide, you will easily be surrounded. ”

“Brother, do you want a weapon? “A sharp blade, a hard long spear. If you want hot weapons, you can have them. Buy a few bombs to defend yourself.”

… ….

“Do you have a map?” Lu Yin asked.

An evolved man with a shifty look quickly came over and swept his eyes over the area. After he was scared away, he took out a map from his pocket and said, “Brother, this map is ten crystals.”

Lu Yin raised an eyebrow, “Ten?” “Are you crazy? A map requires 10 energy crystals, do you know one energy crystal can let a normal person evolve?”

The shifty-eyed evolved man whispered, “Brother, this is not a normal map. The locations of the strong monsters and zombies in the outer city are marked in detail, so you don’t want to be surrounded the moment you leave the city. This is related to your life, is your life not worth ten crystals?”

Lu Yin couldn’t help but laugh, “At most three, I don’t have more.”

The shifty-eyed evolved man straightforwardly said, “Sure, give me your friend here, and take the map.”

He reached into his pocket and took out three white crystals, each about the size of a grain of rice, and handed it to the evolved man. The evolved man received the crystals, and with an excited look in his eyes, he approached Lu Yin and said in a low voice, “Brother, seeing you so straightforward with this gift, there’s no need to thank me.” Finished speaking, he stuffed a round pill into Lu Yin’s hands, turned around, and left.

Lu Yin looked at the pill with a strange gaze. He recognized this thing. It was a aphrodisiac.

After the apocalypse, there were many plant mutations. The peaceful era’s medicine was outdated, and the one made from the mutated plants had an even better effect. Lu Yin had seen this kind of aphrodisiac used by other people, and the effect was absolute. However, this kind of pill was very precious.

Lu Yin didn’t think too much about it. He casually threw away the aphrodisiac, surveyed the surroundings, and walked towards the outer city.

Carefully looking at the map, Lu Yin’s gaze swept across it, finally landing on a barren mountain in the south of the city, “I hope there is a clue here.”

At the top most seat was empty, while at the bottom left was a man in military uniform with a knife scar on his face. At the bottom right was a beautiful girl wearing glasses, and most of the people sitting here were the battalion commanders.

After a long while, Zhou Shan stepped into the meeting room and sat down at the top of the table. He swept his gaze over everyone and finally looked at the girl with glasses. “How’s the planning going?”

The girl pushed her glasses up. “Preliminary estimates suggest that it will take at least two months to expand Jinling’s gathering area, and the casualties among the combatants could reach between two and three thousand. If we want to expand the peaceful era of Jinling into the gathering area, the losses will increase threefold.”

Zhou Shan frowned. “The gathering area must be expanded. The northward journey is quite smooth and will take at most a few months to connect to the capital. By then, the entire country will be connected and it will be easy to regain their country. We cannot be weak, we cannot let others make fun of us.”

“Sage Judgement, we just received news that Tian Zhu gave birth to a Heaven Realm expert. The monk is suffering,” The Knifescar fellow suddenly said.

Everyone was in an uproar. There were only seven heaven level experts in China, it could be seen how difficult it was. They did not expect Tian Zhu to have one.

Zhou Shan’s gaze turned cold, “Bitter monk?” “Check his information. Logically speaking, no one else should be able to break through to the Heaven Stage within a year.”

“Yes.”

“Anything else?” Zhou Shan continued to ask.

Scarface made his move. Just as one of the evolved men was about to say something, he suddenly looked out of the window in a daze, followed by the others.

Zhou Shan suddenly turned around and looked out of the window.

Dozens of meteors fell from the sky, dragging a long trail of flames as they streaked across the sky. One of the meteors crashed towards Jinling, landing in the south of where Jinling was.

At this moment, countless of survivors and evolved humans had witnessed this scene. Meteors in the sky were like fireworks in the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Outside of Jinling City, Lu Yin, who had followed the map to the barren hills south of the city, also saw it. At this moment, the falling meteor wasn’t too far away from him.

The violent shock wave swept through the sky, blowing away the clouds and causing the earth to crack inch by inch.

Lu Yin kicked away the steel frame that was smacked towards him. Staring towards the south, he pondered for a moment before quickly rushing over.

In Jinling City, Zhou Shan rose into the air, wanting to rush towards the south, but he was stopped, “Sage Xing, countless zombies attack the city wall.”

Zhou Shan turned his gaze to the east and saw a black mass of zombies wandering towards them. Jinling City had already been sealed off, and many of the survivors were still outside the city, crying out in despair.

Zhou Shan held his Mountain Splitter Axe and flew out of the city. His axe cut down towards the ground, cutting countless zombies into pieces, “Open the city gates and let them in, I will protect them.”

At the southern part of Jinling City, where the meteors landed, dust and smoke shot straight up into the sky. At the southern part of Jinling City, where the meteors landed, smoke rose straight up into the sky.

Lu Yin approached the pit and hid within the abandoned factory not too far away from the pit, looking through the wooden board at the white ball, his gaze slightly changed. Even though he had some guesses, but once it actually appeared, he was still caught off guard, “I didn’t expect it to come earlier than I expected, a universe ship.”

With a light sound, the white universe ship’s cabin door opened, a hand extended out, stopping for a moment, after which, a youth walked out from the ship, with short hair, dressed in white light armor, boots, he slowly walked out, looking up and stretching, “So tired, it’s just a trial, choosing so far and still making us fly over, it’s disgusting.”

With that, the young man took out a short knife from the flying ship, and a wristwatch similar to the one he wore on his left wrist. With a tap, a beeping sound could be heard, the young man’s gaze focused in the direction of Lu Yin, “Who is it?”
