Dark Blood Age Chapter 242

Chapter 242: Chapter 242 A familiar Candidate

“Tell me more about it,” Chu Yunsheng said calmly.

Since they needed him to protect those candidates, and potentially, he might have a fight with those aliens, so just for the sake of humanity’s survival was not a good enough reason for him.

Although the lives of those candidates were important, his life was as important as them.

Besides, who knows if the silhouette was lying or not. So, at the moment he needed to know if he could get some information about how to escape from the yellow mountain area from this silhouette first.

“According to the program’s protocol, every Heaven’s messenger will have three followers, I can recommend you to the program, that’s the first benefit we are able to offer. Please keep in mind that it is very rare for us to do such things; the second benefit is that as long as it is within the program’s permission, we can conditionally provide you with some weapons and resources that are allocated to the followers in advance,” the silhouette said slowly.

Chu Yunsheng was not interested in those followers. However, he was curious about what it could provide him with. If it could provide him with some of those blue energy tubes, then he would not have any troubles restoring his Yuan Qi in the future.

“I can take the task, but you will need to promise me a few things and answer me a few questions,” Chu Yunsheng thought for a second and said.

Chu Yunsheng was paying attention to every single word the silhouette said. Although the silhouette claimed that the program could see everything, there was one thing it didn’t mention, and it was the ancient book.

Since the book could avoid the divine realm’s detection, then it meant that the ancient book’s level was definitely not lower than the divine realm. Chu Yunsheng daringly a.s.sumed. That was also the reason why he dared to negotiate with the divine realm.

“If it is within the program’s permission!” the silhouette said.

“Okay, first question, since you are confident at killing me, why don’t you just kill those aliens instead? I’ve heard that they have also entered here before,” Chu Yunsheng said.

“We have no right to kill any creatures that comply with the rules of the program. They are intelligent creatures from an advanced technological civilization and they know how to follow the rules in this s.p.a.ce,” the silhouette said.

“Then, why do you want to kill me? At least, I am still a human!” Chu Yunsheng snorted.

“Because you broke the rules. Since the second time you entered this s.p.a.ce, you kept breaking the rules. The purpose of the program is not to kill aliens, but to ensure that the suitable candidate is found and the safe return of the Heaven’s messenger. So, the program will only eliminate the creatures that violate the rules and threaten the stability of this s.p.a.ce,” the silhouette explained.

“Aliens? You also call them aliens?” Chu Yunsheng caught the word the silhouette used and asked.

“From the human’s point of view, they are aliens. However, from the program’s perspective, they are no different than the simulated insects you killed. So, when they enter this s.p.a.ce, their positions are slightly different. They will only exist as monsters,” the silhouette explained.

“So, you belong to the human side? You were built by humans?” Chu Yunsheng asked.

“You don’t have permission to access this information, only the Heaven’s Messenger has permission to access it, we can’t answer you,” the silhouette said.

“Okay, how long have you existed?” Chu Yunsheng asked.

“You don’t have permission to access this information, we can’t answer you,” the silhouette said coldly again.

“How long is this dark age going to continue?” Chu Yunsheng asked again.

“You don’t have permission… We can’t answer you,” the silhouette still refused to answer.

“Do you have the ability to create a s.p.a.ce tunnel between Earth and the insect’s world?” Chu Yunsheng was annoyed by its uncooperative manners. So he asked something that he most wanted.

“Yes, we have, but you don’t have permission to access the knowledge and the resources…” the silhouette said. However, his answer meant nothing to Chu Yunsheng.

“There is a black monolith, do you know anything about it? What is that?” Chu Yunsheng asked.

“Yes, we know, but you don’t have permission… only the…” the silhouette hadn’t finished his answer, but it was immediately interrupted by Chu Yunsheng.

“The Heaven’s messenger, The Heaven’s messenger, you can stop here, next question… The origin of the monsters and the aliens… Ah… Forget about it. I know what you are going to tell me. But I am going to ask you one last question. If you are still telling me that I don’t have any persimmons, then even if I am dead, I will not help you! How do I get out of this yellow mountain area?!” Chu Yunsheng was tired of this silhouette’s repet.i.tive answer. All it was able to tell him was that he had no permissions to this and no permissions to that.

“After The Heaven’s messenger safely returns. The divine realm will be closed forever. At that time, you will be able to leave freely, but until then, all creatures are only allowed to get in, but not leave!” the silhouette said.

“I have finished my questions. You can talk about what weapons and resources that you will be able to provide to me,” Chu Yunsheng said.

The silhouette pointed at a mirror next to it. Then, a virtual shelf with many types of equipment slowly appeared on it.

“Due to the program’s restrictions, I can not give you the resources unconditionally, and in order to obtain them, you will need to complete the task that the program a.s.signed to you first. What I can do for you is, firstly, I can increase the level of the weapons you can access to the level that matches the candidates of The Heaven’s Messenger’s followers; Secondly, as long as it is within your level of permissions, you can choose weapons freely, program will not randomly give you a weapon; Thirdly you are no longer required to complete the five island chains to obtain those weapons. Instead, your task is to protect those candidates of The Heaven’s Messenger.

You have already received the reward for the first island chain. Now you can choose the reward for the second island chain.”

Looking at so many weapons that the silhouette listed out, Chu Yunsheng was confused, “since you have so many weapons, why don’t you give them to those candidates of The Heaven’s messenger directly? In that way, they can just protect themselves!”

“One month ago, the program tried to give a powerful weapon to a key candidate whose life was in danger. However, it was noticed by an alien and the alien attempted to use force to take it away. Although the program’s defense system was activated, the alien still managed to escape while it was heavily injured. The alien was very clever, it knew how to utilize the rules of the program.

That is also the reason why we need your help, the candidates are not powerful outside of the divine realm. Before they can safely return, any weapons will bring dangers to them,” the silhouette explained.

Chu Yunsheng had heard about the injury of the fire messenger from Tian Yi. Presumably, it was the alien that the silhouette was talking about.

However, Chu Yunsheng was still speechless. ‘What kind of stupid program is this, which dumb f.u.c.k designed this s.h.i.+t? Making so many useless rules, but it is only able to restrict the program itself. It could not even stop the alien from using the loopholes.’

However, since he was not the Heaven’s Messenger, he was not qualified to know the details, maybe there were some other reasons.

“I don’t need weapons at the moment, but you can give me the energy tube like the one you gave me last time,” Chu Yunsheng roughly looked at the weapons on the virtual shelf and said. There were so many weapons, however, he did not know how to use them. Besides, he did not really need a weapon now, he had already gotten one and the most powerful weapons – his Yuan Qi energy,

“Okay, but I can only give you one more. The energy tube has some other uses as well, but you don’t have per…” the silhouette thought for a second and said.

“Stop there, don’t mention permission again, I am not interested, also you need to give me a copy of the diagrams on those platforms, I need to study them,” Chu Yunsheng immediately interrupted it.

“Here is the diagram on the third island chain, but for the fourth and fifth, we will need to wait for the program’s decision,” the silhouette was drawing the diagram while talking. After the diagram was completed, it suddenly flew out of the mirror-like slab.

“Okay. Now let’s talk about the candidates you want me to protect, I need to know who they are,” Chu Yunsheng noted down the diagram and said.

“The program has confirmed 10 candidates, those are their images…” the silhouette pointed to a mirror slab to its left then 10 moving images started to appear one by one. Some people in those images were still struggling with the divine realm’s challenges, but some had already left the divine realm.

“Since you have their locations, do you know the locations of those aliens?” Chu Yunsheng thought for a second and asked. If he knew those aliens’ locations in advance, then the level of his safety would be greatly increased.

“No. Although they can not leave the yellow mountain area like you, they have their own way of avoiding the program’s detection. Unless they are in this s.p.a.ce, which you called the divine realm,” the silhouette answered.

“Wait! Zoom in that one! Quick!” Chu Yunsheng suddenly saw a familiar figure in the last moving image.

“Why is she…?” Chu Yunsheng squinted his eyes and murmured…

“She is not in danger at the moment, your first mission is to find another female candidate, who is imprisoned in the castle of Snowstorm,” the silhouette enlarged one of the moving images and said.

“Zoom out, I need to know her specific location,” Chu Yunsheng glanced at the images and said.

“You will receive a map with their locations after you leave this s.p.a.ce. I will send the map and energy tube over to you through the ‘Mountain Device’. Remember, this s.p.a.ce opens once in seven days, so the locations on the map will only be refreshed once in seven days. During those days, they might change their locations, so you need to be extra careful,” the silhouette reminded him.

“Now I am sending you out!” the silhouette said.
