Global End, I Awaken the Unique Rank Speedrun Dungeon
Chapter 72 Proving Identity
In a post-apocalyptic setting, the Kyoto military camp changes its enlistment requirements.
Men aged 14 and above and women aged 16 and above can join the army.
The boy in front of me looked to be just over fifteen years old, maybe even younger, with the childishness still lingering on his face.
He was the first to stand in front of Chu Qianzhou, closed his eyes, and waited for the other to take his life.
Chu Qianzhou hesitated to make a move.
Perhaps he deeply regrets his previous decision, or perhaps he's trying to evade responsibility by deceiving himself.
He proposed the plan, but when it came time to implement it, he was the one who backed down.
In the end, the desire to survive overcame the fear.
Looking at the men who were willing to entrust their lives to him, Chu Qianzhou's heart began to waver.
......
Two days later.
Inside the Kyoto military camp, Xia Ren looked as if he had aged ten years, with graying temples and sunken eyes.
He hasn't slept a wink these past few days.
Chu Qianzhou led a team of over a thousand Sequence Users to pursue the Ancient Corpse Demon, including the core members of the military camp and the only Level 1 Sequence User in the camp.
Except for Chu Qianzhou, they all died in battle.
No one knows what happened that night; the only one to return the next day was the heavily injured Chu Qianzhou.
According to the other party's description, the ancient corpse scourge was exceptionally powerful, and their tactics against it did not have much effect.
The ancient corpse scourge could easily kill any other Sequence members besides Chu Qianzhou.
With the help of his teammates providing triple all attributes and the power gained from the sacrifice of some people, Chu Qianzhou barely managed to resist the ancient corpse scourge.
The latter possessed intelligence, and after discovering that killing others could weaken Chu Qianzhou's strength...
They specifically hunt down other sequence members, causing their attribute boosts to fail to stack in the arena.
As the disadvantage gradually widened, Chu Qianzhou's side grew weaker with each battle.
The remaining Sequencers sacrificed themselves to protect Chu Qianzhou and hold back the ancient corpse scourge.
Thus, the military ranks suffered a severe blow!
The only good news is that the ancient corpse scourge was also seriously injured, and the military camp has been relatively peaceful these past two days.
"Click—"
A subordinate brought in food: "Major General Xia, please eat something. If you don't eat something, your health will collapse."
"I have no appetite at all."
Xia Ren looked dejected: "I disappointed the soldiers. If I hadn't persisted in pursuing the ancient corpse monster, perhaps none of this would have happened."
If he listens to Chu Qianzhou's advice and waits until he breaks through to the second level of combat power before fighting the ancient corpse scourge.
Would those thousand-plus people have survived? At least, the casualties wouldn't be as severe as they are now.
"But you were doing this for the sake of your brothers," the subordinate comforted him. "In the past two days, without fighting the ancient corpses and monstrous evil spirits, we've lost far more than a thousand surviving warriors."
In the battles of the past few days, which day did the death toll not exceed a thousand?
"That's different."
Xia Ren was unwilling to admit it, but the fact was that the loss to the military camp from the death of a thousand ordinary people was different from the loss from the death of a thousand sequencers.
If he had a choice, he would rather give his life for a chance to start over.
"Report!"
Another soldier rushed in: "Major General Xia, the commander has called an emergency meeting and requests your presence!"
......
Gao Tianyi sat in the head seat, looking at the two new faces on his left, his solemn expression tinged with a hint of doubt.
"Are you two truly both of the unique-level sequence?"
There were still a few empty seats in the meeting room.
Zhuang Yu didn't see the Chu Qianzhou she remembered, so she stopped looking at him.
"I am Zhuang Yu, the sole owner of the 'Black King' sequence."
"This is Meng Ling, the owner of the unique 'Heaven's Wish' sequence."
"We have come here to help resolve the scourge of the ancient corpses and to launch a project concerning the fate of China—the Great Wall of Wishes."
Gao Tianyi wanted to ask some more questions.
But before he could speak, he was interrupted by someone who had just entered the meeting room.
Xia Ren was unsure of the purpose of his summons. He glanced at everyone present, noticed Zhuang Yu and Meng Ling, and then sat down in his assigned seat without saying anything.
Chu Qianzhou arrived together.
Compared to his usual leisurely demeanor, he now looked worried, and his jet-black hair had sprouted many white strands.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked extremely haggard.
Zhuang Yu frowned, her gaze lingering on Chu Qianzhou for a long time.
Until Gao Tianyi's voice rang out again.
"While I really hope what you're saying is true, one side of the story isn't enough to convince everyone."
"We request that Comrade Zhuang Yu and Comrade Meng Ling provide conclusive evidence to prove their identities."
He couldn't immediately believe Zhuang Yu just because he said they were the only ones in the sequence.
Chu Qianzhou showed him his strength, which was in a class of its own compared to other Sequence Users, and his three Sequence Abilities were also confirmed.
Therefore, the most effective way is to have Zhuang Yumengling prove her strength and whether she possesses the three sequence abilities.
The reason Gao Tianyi convened an emergency meeting before confirming that the two were the only ones in the sequence was because...
It was because he saw footage captured by surveillance cameras outside the city.
The two arrived outside the military camp riding on a gigantic "monster." The immense pressure emanating from the 30-meter-winged beast terrified the powerful Sequencers stationed outside the city.
Seeing this scene, Gao Tianyi began to believe Zhuang Yu's words.
Moreover, even if they are not the only ones in the sequence, the military still needs their combat power.
No amount of seriousness is too much in handling this matter.
"The leader is absolutely right, we will prove ourselves."
As Zhuang Yu spoke, his gaze fell upon Chu Qianzhou: "This must be Chu Qianzhou, the owner of the unique 'Arena of Life and Death' sequence."
Gao Tianyi and other high-ranking military officers remained silent, awaiting further developments.
The fact that the other party knows about the ancient corpse's calamity and knows about Chu Qianzhou doesn't prove anything.
"If you want us to prove our strength, then sparring with Comrade Chu Qianzhou is the fastest way."
"The gap between a unique-level sequencer and other sequencers is like a chasm. If I can be on par with him in terms of strength, I believe I can prove my words to the leaders."
Initially, he was not prepared to spar with Chu Qianzhou.
There are many ways to prove that they are the only ones in the sequence.
Their strength is evidenced by their sequence abilities and the tiers of rewards they receive from dungeons.
But after seeing Chu Qianzhou, Zhuang Yu changed his mind.
The main reason was that Chu Qianzhou was vastly different from the image he had in mind.
In Zhuang Yu's memory, Chu Qianzhou had silver hair and skin as white and delicate as mutton fat jade, which even women were ashamed of.
Her temperament was gentle and refined, a stark contrast to the dejected, dark-haired, yellow-skinned man before him.
The reason he was able to recognize the other person was...
It's because of the five senses.
Although Chu Qianzhou in front of him looked very different from the one Zhuang Yu remembered, their facial features were extremely similar.
Like twin brothers cut from the same mold, one grew up in a rural family, and the other grew up in a wealthy and noble family.
No matter how they change, when the two stand together, people can still tell that they are twin brothers.
The same applies to Chu Qianzhou.
