Dawn of a New Era

A pedestrian blocking the way was thrown away by him with one hand, and his body flew six or seven meters before falling heavily.

Fortunately, the cars on the street stepped on the brakes as soon as they saw something was wrong, so no tragedy happened.

"He's a barbarian, kill him, don't let him run away." A middle-aged man who also escaped from the bookstore yelled, grabbed a broom from a roadside shop, turned it around, and confronted him like a sword.

Judging by his posture, it is obvious that he has learned swordsmanship, and he may even be a martial artist apprentice. Otherwise, no one would have the courage to provoke a barbarian at this time.

Chen Shouyi, who was about to run away, couldn't help but slow down.

As a young man, his heart is still not cold, his blood is still hot, he looks left and right, trying to find the weapon in his hand.

However, before he could find the weapon, the barbarian rushed towards the middle-aged man in an instant. Chen Shouyi couldn't describe his speed, even if he was hard to catch with the naked eye, the distance of more than ten meters came in an instant.

The middle-aged man hadn't even thrust out his sword, but a fist hit his head heavily.

His body flew into the air, and soon rolled to the ground like a rag bag.

The skull was shattered like a smashed watermelon.

The most frightening thing was that from the beginning to the end, the barbarian carried a large cloth bag wrapped in sheets, which was filled with books, weighing at least a hundred catties.

Chen Shouyi just took a look at the miserable corpse, the blood in his heart quickly subsided, and a chill spread all over his body. The original eagerness to try disappeared, leaving only the fear in his heart.

Fortunately, this barbarian did not carry out unnecessary killings. After the deterrence, he looked around vigilantly, and quickly fled forward. His steps were heavy and huge, and each step could span five or six meters.

Only a few seconds later, the barbarian had disappeared into the street.

Things happened too fast, and it was already three minutes after the fully armed special police arrived.

But at this moment, Chen Shouyi had already left the scene.

Both were pushing bicycles, and passers-by along the way, seeing the blood stains on the two of them, avoided them one after another, with panicked faces.

It's just that the two of them were restless, and they didn't seem to realize it.

Zhang Xiaoyue was quite quiet, her body trembling slightly.

Chen Shouyi could feel the fear in her heart, but it wasn't just her, so why not him.

People who live in peace can never imagine the cruelty of death. Even if such news is broadcast in the news from time to time, it is not very real because they are too far away and have no personal experience.

Dongning City has always been a quiet and peaceful town. Even the alien invasion war more than ten or twenty years ago was only a small-scale and intense war in a remote border area.

In terms of scale, it is not even comparable to the two world wars, which did not even affect life.

Perhaps Chen Shouyi would read about how much advanced equipment was used in that war on the Internet, but he could not feel the cruelty of that war at all.

In this small city, the only event that could be called an alien invasion occurred two years ago.

Two smuggled barbarians were killed on the outskirts of Dongning.

Not long after, this hidden wormhole near Dongning City was discovered, and then the army was stationed.

The police were very efficient. Walking on the road, the barbarian's arrest warrant was playing on the advertising screen in the square, which attracted many people to stop and watch, with panic on their faces.

Chen Shouyi sent Zhang Xiaoyue to the gate of her community all the way, and said, "Squad leader, I'm leaving first."

After a pause, he comforted: "The barbarian should not be able to escape. There are cameras everywhere on the street. Maybe at night, the news will be broadcast."

"Thank you Chen Shouyi, if you hadn't dragged me, I might..."

"Are you our monitor? How could I leave you alone? Don't think too much, I'll go first." Chen Shouyi forced out a smile and pretended to be relaxed.

With that said, he rode his bicycle and left quickly.

On the way, he gets a call.

"Why are you still outside? Come back soon!" Mother Chen's anxious voice was on the phone.

"Mom, I'll be right back." Chen Shouyi didn't ask why.

He hung up the phone and hurried home.

The door was already closed for dinner, and the rolling door was half-opened. He put the bicycle through the back door, and was pulled in by Chen's mother, and then quickly locked the rolling door.

"Bodhisattva bless you, you are finally back, you don't know what happened just now, it's really scary." Mother Chen said nervously.

Suddenly she was stunned, and her face turned pale.

"Why is there blood on your body?"

Chen Shouyi touched it, and the blood on it had dried up, leaving only the scraps of blood scab on his palm, and there might be some minced meat inside. Remembering that these things were splashed from corpses, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Seeing that there was no way to hide it, Chen Shouyi could only explain it honestly.

"You... have nowhere to go. If you have to go to the bookstore, you're going to be scared to death." Chen's mother was both grateful and scared, and finally couldn't help but hit him twice: "Hurry up!" Take off your clothes, and I will burn them later. I will pay homage to the Bodhisattva and get rid of bad luck."

As a person who opens the door to do business, he is often the most superstitious. His family worships Guanyin and the God of Wealth all year round, but neither he nor his sister worship much.

"Okay mom, by the way, where is Xingyue?" He asked while taking off his coat.

"She's been back a long time ago, and she's upstairs watching the news with your dad."

Under Chen's mother's supervision, Chen Shouyi worshiped the bodhisattva, went upstairs, and was questioned by Chen Dawei again.

The TV was broadcasting the news just now, and he saw mosaic corpses carried out of the bookstore one by one. Some corpses could only be called a pool of rotten meat, and they were put into storage bags.

"As of now, the death toll in this attack has reached 135, and another 43 people have been seriously injured and are undergoing emergency rescue..."

Chen Shouyi glanced at it, but didn't look at it again. The scene was more cruel than the news broadcast. He got up and went to the bathroom, took a shower, and washed away all the remaining blood in his body.

In the evening, after a simple dinner, the family stayed in front of the TV, watching the latest news.

On the street outside, the roar of police cars could be heard from time to time, and it was obvious that all police forces had been dispatched.

The atmosphere in the living room was somewhat depressing, and no one spoke.

Such a terrifying terrorist from another world, wandering in the city, no one can still eat and sleep soundly, as if nothing happened.

It was seven o'clock in the evening.

A piece of news broke in suddenly.

The host looked at the manuscript, with a hint of joy on his face, but it was fleeting, and then became solemn: "Now there is a news broadcast, under the blockade of the whole city, at 6:40, the special police force of Dongning City and Wu Dao Several honorary special police officers of the association finally found the barbarian's hiding place in Yanghu Park. After a fierce battle, the barbarian was finally killed.

In this battle, including Zhou Shaofeng, the vice president of the Dongning Martial Arts Association, four special police officers unfortunately died on duty...

Zhou Shaofeng is dead!

Chen Shouyi was stunned for a moment. The first time he heard Zhou Shaofeng's name was from the school's martial arts teacher.

Two years ago, those two barbarians in the outskirts of Dongning were single-handedly killed by him with a superb stabbing sword.

But such a powerful figure, a senior warrior, died unexpectedly, in the battle against the barbarians.

He felt a moment of fear in his heart, but also a little fortunate.

If at the beginning, he rushed forward in a flash of enthusiasm, maybe...
