The End of the World: I am the Blood Monster Princess (GL) - Chapter 70

Su Mu is willing to help Chen Xi, but the most important reason is not to gain control of the swarm managed by Chen Xi.

The insect swarm is indeed powerful, but based on previous experiences, the Starshine Tier 1 insectoid Queen can only control insects from level 1 to level 5.

As another summoner, Bai Yu, who is already under his command, can summon knights stronger than himself.

In comparison, the swarm, whether in terms of combat power or appearance, is a notch below Bai Yu’s knight order.

For Su Mu, having Chen Xi’s assistance is a bonus to her power, but it is not the reason for her military campaign.

Su Mu is willing to send troops to assist, even going so far as to personally confront Gu Xiaoran on the battlefield. The more important reason is that Su Mu wants to eliminate this competitor.

According to Chen Xi’s description, Gu Xiaoran’s strength might have already surpassed the Starry Stage two weeks ago.

And the shelter led by Gu Xiaoran happens to be in the southeast direction of the city.

The two factions are only separated by a few dozen kilometers. If left to develop on their own, it won’t be long before a conflict arises!

Moreover, the other party has already issued a kill order against me, proving that they are very interested in my spiritual bloodline.

Su Mu naturally wouldn’t wait for Gu Xiaoran to come knocking again.

In this apocalyptic world, if I, Su Mu, hadn’t found you, Gu Xiaoran, you would still be hiding in a corner, secretly enjoying yourself, and you dare to attempt a counterattack?

In that case, be prepared to be crushed by me!

“Your Highness, Your Highness, are we going to fight? I heard from Anna that this time the opponent is humans!”

“Really! Really!”

Everyone came to Su Mu’s side, and Wang Xin excitedly started shouting.

“Mm.”

“This time, the enemy isn’t as weak as before. Wang Xin, take it seriously, and so should you all.”

Su Mu said coldly, scanning everyone up and down.

Everyone’s spirit and energy are high, not bad.

“Where’s Chen Xi?”

Su Mu noticed that Chen Xi was not among the people who had arrived and couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled.

In theory, when it comes to rescuing her childhood friend, Chen Xi should be at the front line, eager and impatient.

“Your Highness, Chen Xi is over there.”

“Last night, I wanted to arrange accommodation for her, but Chen Xi insisted that she could sleep in the woods.”

Qin Anna pointed to the woods at the school gate, where Chen Xi was entangled in spider silk, curled up in the branches of a tree.

“Why?”

Su Mu asked.

“Chen Xi said… she was afraid that her appearance would scare others.”

Qin Anna said softly.

“Alright.”

Su Mu slightly frowned, using the power of the bl00d clan to send a telepathic message, summoning Chen Xi.

As expected, Chen Xi hadn’t slept at all. Hearing Su Mu’s call, she immediately retracted her web and jumped in front of everyone.

The late autumn in Lin’an City, just after the rain, the night air is extremely cold.

Chen Xi’s spider body was covered with a layer of frost, and even though his upper body was kept warm by a coat, it was still frozen, and his face was flushed.

“I’ll help you warm up.”

Qin Anna asked with some concern, preparing to unleash the power of the angels.

“No.”

Su Mu and Chen Xi almost simultaneously said this sentence.

“Why refuse to help? Aren’t you cold?”

Su Mu is too lazy to waste time, but why did Chen Xi refuse on his own?

This indeed piqued Su Mu’s curiosity, prompting him to ask.

“Spiders are cold-blooded animals, they won’t be afraid of the cold…”

“No need to trouble yourself.”

Chen Xi replied slowly.

“You are human.”

“Turning you into this ghostly version of Gu Xiaoran is the real terrifying cold-blooded act.”

Su Mu said coldly, but a ripple stirred in his heart.

Even spiders gradually lose their ability to move below ten degrees.

It was so cold last night that her hair, whether in human form or spider form, must have been freezing.

Although this guy was trying to take him away just a few hours ago, Su Mu always felt a bit sorry for Chen Xi.

That’s right, a pitiful person must have something despicable about them.

But at the same time, those who are despicable must also have their own tragic suffering.

In the apocalypse, no one is in control of their own body.

Enough! Enough! Enough!

Be a bit more magnanimous.

Su Mu sighed lightly and gestured for Qin Anna to use her angelic powers to help Chen Xi warm up.

Everything was ready, and everyone set off on the journey to the shelter controlled by Gu Xiaoran.

Along the way, the mutated beasts around fled at the first sign, and even the stupid zombies kept their distance.

The squad’s configuration is truly too high!

Not to mention Su Mu and the other psionics, the rifles loaded by the Mu Yue team and the electromagnetic ion floating cannon in Jiang Yiqin’s hands.

Just the aura of the insect queen emanating from Chen Xi, which possesses a strong deterrent effect on mutated beasts, is enough to dispel most of the malevolent spirits.

Even if there really were some reckless mutated beasts daring to attack, Su Mu’s bat wings and Chen Mo’s flying knives would chop them down from ten meters away.

The whole journey went smoothly without any obstacles.

The only thing that made Su Mu a bit disappointed was the city of Lin’an beneath his feet, which had once been incredibly prosperous.

Walking from the Normal University Affiliated High School to Li Xiaoran’s shelter, nearly twenty kilometers, I hardly saw any living people.

The few survivors are all crammed into the dilapidated high-rises in the neighborhoods or small shops by the street, relying on the food stored before the apocalypse to get by.

After a long period of neglect, the water and electricity supply systems in Lin’an City have been severely damaged after the heavy rain a few days ago.

Humans, this once-mighty intelligent species of the Blue Planet, are imprisoned in dark, filthy concrete cells, living in constant fear.

Once, passing by a store, the people inside saw Su Mu and the others walking by. They cried out for help, hoping they could lend a hand and take them away.

Unfortunately, Su Mu is not a hero who saves the world. She casually cleared the mutated beasts around the store and signaled everyone to keep moving.

In the apocalypse, the more burdens you carry, the lower your chances of survival. Su Mu understood this principle.

As for helping them clear out the mutated beasts.

Su Mu preferred to call it helping himself accumulate some Bl00d Source Stones.

Twenty kilometers is not exactly a short distance. The group walked intermittently for several hours on the damaged city roads before finally arriving at the shelter Chen Xi mentioned.

Here is the former Olympic Sports Center of Lin’an City. The tall walls provide natural protection, making it a suitable base for Gu Xiaoran.

Su Mu signaled everyone to hide in the nearby buildings first, while he and Chen Mo cautiously made their way to the building near the main entrance of the Olympic Sports Center.

Before a battle, regardless of the strength of either side, it is always wise to first observe the enemy’s defensive deployment.

“Ah?”

“Chen Xi is in charge of this thing… called…”

“Refuge?!”

Seeing the defenses at the main entrance of the Olympic Sports Center, Su Mu could hardly believe his eyes.

Not to mention the several helicopters parked on the central playground of the Olympic Sports Center, and the neatly arranged tents around the stands…

Whose shelter checkpoint is guarded by two tanks?

These things were completely absent from Chen Xi’s statement. The most advanced technological weapon in her shelter, according to her, was just a pistol.

Su Mu is her only hope; Chen Xi doesn’t need to deceive herself.

Clearly, after Chen Xi was thrown out, Gu Xiaoran’s luck skyrocketed, and she somehow got her hands on these outrageous things.

The Olympic Sports Center has seemingly been transformed into a military base!

“What do we do now?”

Chen Mo’s lips trembled slightly as he hesitated to ask Su Mu.

“Everything remains the same.”
