Chapter 187

“I’m leaving tomorrow,” Chu Yunsheng said one more time.

“Ah!” Edgar woke up in shock. He knew this day would come, but he still felt like he was struck by the lightning when he heard it.

The past two months were the most peaceful period he had since the beginning of the dark age. Although he didn’t know what Chu Yunsheng was doing every day outside the town, he knew he was preparing to leave soon.

“Mr. Lennon, may I go with you?” Edgar asked nervously. He was scared that Chu Yunsheng was going to say no. “I won’t be a trouble, I can stay far away behind you....” he immediately added.

“You are going to die if you come with me,” said Chu Yunsheng. He was not trying to scare Edgar. He couldn’t even tell if he would be able to cross the area of slimy substances alive, let alone bringing another ordinary human with him.

“Stay here, I’ll leave some food for you. You probably can still live for some time.” Chu Yunsheng looked outside through the windows and said.

The reason why he said “some time” was that he also was not sure how long this man was going to survive. It might be one week, it might be just two days. Once the town was covered with a slimy substance. It wouldn’t be long for insects to find him.

“Mr. Lennon, please, I’m begging you, please allow me to follow you. I’ll be dead if I stay here...” Edgar begged.

“Are you sure that you want to leave with me? You have to understand that I’ll not protect you once we enter the area of slimy substance. You are still going to die if you follow me,” Chu Yunsheng warned.

“Yes. Mr. Lennon, I’ve decided. No matter what. I’ll give it a try! Please let me follow you, I can cook, I can be a lookout, I can do anything. I can protect myself, you don’t need to protect me. I won’t regret it.” Edgar looked at Chu Yunsheng with hope.

“Are you good at shooting?” Chu Yunsheng was curious.

“Yes, Mr. Lennon. In America, I have a permit to carry a gun. I’m also a gun hobbyist. You don’t need to worry too much about me.” said Edgar while raising the rifle in his hand.

Chu Yunsheng almost forgot that Edgar was not from China, if Edgar was good at shooting, then he might be useful to him.

The type 1 dark energy gun was still in his storage talisman, Chu Yunsheng hasn’t touched it since he got type 2 from professor Sun. He also had spare bullets from GRD. Roughly 80 of them.

The gun was already enchanted with the fire enchantment talisman, it was much more powerful than the ordinary energy gun.

If he could arm Edgar, then Edgar could hide inside a golden-shelled insect to assist him. Although compared to the size of the swarm, it was nothing, to him, more help means less risk.

“Okay, Edgar, prove that you are useful to me. Try your best to get used to this new gun. And you only have 82 bullets. Don’t waste any of them,” he took out the gun from his loose cloak and passed it to Edgar.

“Type 1 dark energy gun!?” Edgar was shocked. Although he was not a formal researcher, he still worked for GRD before, so he recognized the gun.

“Mr. Lennon, I won’t let you down.” Edgar was much more confident now.

“But I have to tell you, that once we leave this building, there is no way back and even if you are in danger, I probably won’t be able to save you. Do you understand?” said Chu Yunsheng.

“I understand, Mr. Lennon,” Edgar said sternly. This was his only chance to escape from here, he had to try it.

“That’s good. Take a good rest after you get used to it. We probably won’t be able to have any breaks for a very long time.” Chu Yunsheng wrapped himself with his cloak again and closed his eyes.

Tomorrow, he and this man would face the entire swarm. So he had to take a good rest as well.

Maybe they would be able to run away tomorrow. Maybe...

Chu Yunsheng didn’t sleep all the way to the next day. He woke up at midnight.

In the dim light, he noticed that Edgar still hasn’t slept yet. He was staring at a photo in his hand and there was a flicker of a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Chu Yunsheng sat up, threw a piece of furniture into the campfire, and suddenly asked, “Edgar, are you American?”

“I’m sorry, Mr.Lennon, did I wake you up.” Edgar immediately apologized.

“Your family?” Chu Yunsheng asked.

“Yes. Mr. Lennon, my wife, and kids. They are still in America.” Edgar said.

“Before the sun disappeared, we had regular phone calls. I promised them that I’ll come back to them alive...” he looked dejected.

“That’s why you didn’t choose to kill yourself like other people?” he asked.

“People who killed themselves won’t be able to go to Heaven. Mr. Lennon. Even if I can’t go back. We will still be able to meet each other in Heaven. If I killed myself. Then I won’t be able to see them ever again,” said Edgar while gently stroking the photo.

“They may not die anytime soon. Your country has the most advanced and most powerful weapons. There are also countless elite scientists in your country. So, maybe the situation over there is better than us here.”

“Mr. Lennon, thank you. But... I’m not saying you are wrong. I have learned a lot in GRD. Everything we knew has changed... Everything...” Edgar shook his head.

“My wife’s grandmother came from a rare ethnic group in Mexico, and she used to insist that they were the Mayan descendants. She was a poor old lady, but a kind and loving person. When she was young, and whenever she was beaten by my wife’s alcoholic grandfather... She would often warn me and my wife that in the last few days of 2012, the sun would fall, and it would no longer rise, she hoped that I could stay in the United States to take care of my wife and children when it happened.”

“Mayan... you mean she told you about the Mayan prophecy?” Chu Yunsheng was surprised. Because he had also studied the Mayan prophecy before.

“Yes, at the time, I also thought it was ridiculous. I thought that it was because she wanted me to stay in the USA with my family, she made it up. I could understand how she felt. Although I’m a black man, I have received a proper education in the university. So I didn’t believe those things. That’s why I came here...” suddenly, his eyes were wide open.

“Oh my god! How stupid I am. I almost forgot that when we visited her, she also mentioned that when the disaster came, we needed to escape to the ruined old temple, only in that way would we receive God’s salvation. God! She already predicted the dark age, then the things about the temple must be true! She will take Tina and the children to the temple she mentioned, she definitely will! Mr. Chu am I right?”

“She will!” Chu Yunsheng answered simply.

Looking at Edgar who was still very excited, Chu Yunsheng suddenly had a strange thought. Whether it was the Mayan prophecy or the book’s prediction, they all pointed at 2012. But why 2012? Was it set up by someone, who set it?...
