Yama Reborn-Chapter 569 - 566: The Son of the Sun’s Secret

Chapter 566: The Son of the Sun’s Secret

An entire day of searching turned up empty.

During that time, the plane flew back to the temporary camp set up by the ground convoy for refueling before taking off again to continue searching the designated sector.

However, by nightfall, back at the camp, the group’s technical support personnel offered a suggestion to Chen Nuo.

"Starting tomorrow, the aerial search team could operate without the armed helicopter following. After all, there isn’t much danger in aerial searches... and if you encounter threats that even you adults can’t handle, a trailing armed helicopter wouldn’t be of much help."

The leader of this technical team was clearly from Octopus Monster Company, albeit making a suggestion, he still maintained a respectful attitude toward Chen Nuo, explaining the reasoning: "This would also save some aviation gasoline."

Chen Nuo glanced at the person: "Is our gasoline supply insufficient?"

"Our plan is to have a fuel truck arrive every three days, on schedule it should be enough, but... Africa is quite a complex place, with poor roads and unpredictable weather conditions, among other challenges.

Therefore, even if the supply plan is plentiful, unforeseen circumstances are inevitable, I’m just making preparations for potential surprises.

Saving on the armed helicopter’s follow-up reduces gasoline usage.

This way, should there be unexpected delays in the fuel transportation from the supply line, we would still have some reserves to sustain the search."

Chen Nuo considered it and accepted the suggestion.

Octopus Monster Company certainly has deep pockets, every team allocated with abundant resources.

Originally, Chen Nuo was ready to nibble on military single soldier rations during the search days.

It turned out the transport vehicles carried plenty of food, including meat and dehydrated vegetables.

Even more outrageous, there was actually Coca-Cola!

And there was also a repeatedly detachable and reassemble-able... simple single-unit toilet.

This made Chen Nuo very satisfied...

After all, on the African wilderness, in nature, squatting in the grass to relieve oneself... that experience is indeed quite pungent.

The site had been carefully leveled by the ground team.

They also set up a guard, drove away the surrounding wildlife, and put up a simple perimeter barrier.

However, as for sleeping, they couldn’t transport those modular houses, so it was tents.

Staying in a tent didn’t bother Chen Nuo.

But what annoyed him was, the old bastard Son of the Sun pitched his tent right next to his!

And this old bastard brazenly pulled that female Ability User into his tent at night.

Resulting in quite the ruckus, echoing through the night from that direction.

Next morning at dawn, when Chen Nuo came out of his tent and saw the Son of the Sun, the guy seemed to have dark circles and bags under his eyes.

Chen Nuo took one look at him: "You’re injuring yourself through excess indulgence, old man."

Son of the Sun nonchalantly smiled and took a deep breath before closing his eyes.

With just a few breaths, his pale face visibly improved, the dark circles faded and eventually disappeared, and the swollen eye bags began to shrink.

Chen Nuo shook his head: "You actually use the Controller’s self-healing ability for such trivial pursuits."

Son of the Sun shook his head: "You don’t understand, kid."

Chen Nuo laughed: "I don’t understand? It’s like you’re a wild boar never having eaten fine bran."

"What’s that supposed to mean?" Son of the Sun stared.

Chen Nuo briefly explained the meaning of this phrase in Mandarin, causing Son of the Sun to roll his eyes in disgruntlement: "That’s why I said you don’t understand."

After a pause, seeing Chen Nuo’s indifference, Son of the Sun snorted and shook his head: "I know you have a woman like the Star Sky Empress at home, stunningly beautiful and you love her dearly, right? So you despise me for wasting my energy on women who aren’t that high-class?"

Chen Nuo said nothing but evidently agreed.

Son of the Sun chuckled: "That’s why you don’t understand, young man. I get it; doing that kind of thing between men and women with affection is quite enjoyable.

But there’s another flavor entirely, that’s doing it without any emotional attachment, purely surrendering to your body’s most primitive animal instincts, the most primal animal urges.

You know, doing that without affection, without feelings requires no regard for the other person’s feelings, you can indiscriminately vent your most primitive desires, even treating the other as simply a release tool, expressing your darkest, most violent cravings.

This extreme catharsis... you generally can’t bear to do such things to a woman you truly love.

Understand?"

Damn!

Chen Nuo was stunned listening.

Although this notion is very shameless... it seems to have some truth in it?

Seeing Chen Nuo’s facial expressions change a bit, Son of the Sun became even more smug: "There’s more you couldn’t imagine.

I and this woman’s relationship, I’m high above, while she carefully pleases me, this time out, facing numerous dangers, and she’s going all out to please me, to survive!

Such flattering isn’t like a woman paid for, those women can still feign and appease you.

But when it’s about life, she wouldn’t dare slack one bit?

Doesn’t she need to put all her effort into pleasing me? Come on now, isn’t it just the utmost pleasure?

Plus...

This woman is a double-Ability User with both Body Technique Department and healer ability.

An Ability User from the Body Technique Department, regarding physical strength, body flexibility, endurance, far exceeds ordinary people, coupled with self-healing ability...

You know, a woman with a hot body, also strong, full flexibility, scoring full marks!

And utilizing her entire skills and abilities, desperately pleasing you, not caring about self-respect... exhausting all her means just to go at it with you...

How much pleasure do you think it is?"

Finished, the old fellow laughed heartily, patting Chen Nuo’s shoulder, and headed off for breakfast.

Chen Nuo looked at the smug Son of the Sun.

God damn it!

This old fellow is worse than I initially thought!!

After three consecutive days of searching, yet no results.

Chen Nuo really wanted to just stay at the camp and rest, letting the helicopters continue the search independently.

But that wouldn’t do, in case encountering the "Guardian" of The Fourth Seed, relying on himself and Son of the Sun is required.

Staying at the camp wasn’t an option.

After three fruitless days, the area surrounding the camp had been thoroughly searched.

The entire group of personnel began to break camp and leave, as another fuel transport vehicle arrived.

During these three days, Son of the Sun remained tirelessly pulling the woman into wild nights every evening.

Though Chen Nuo didn’t reprimand the old bastard any longer, he quietly relocated his tent far from the old fellow.

Once arriving at a planned new campsite, resumed previous preparations, centering searches based on the new camp.

Chen Nuo contacts Lu Xixi every day with a satellite phone to report safety.

At the same time, he also keeps an eye on the movements of other teams.

Like Chen Nuo’s team, the other teams haven’t made any gains either.

The only unexpected event might be just one...

In Wizard’s team, a ground worker got bitten by a snake while cleaning the camp. Fortunately, the accompanying doctor provided treatment.

This mission’s supplies were thoroughly prepared, even with snake venom serum on hand.

·

The ninth day.

A whole day of searching yielded nothing.

That night, Chen Nuo enjoyed a lavish dinner, devoured a large steak, and drank a can of iced Coke—yes, the supply vehicle even had an ice machine!

Chen Nuo couldn’t help but think... having such a wealthy boss is really great!

The Son of the Sun has been quiet for the past two days—obviously, the primal, physical pleasure he spoke of, after a few days of indulgence, has become tiresome.

Tonight, the old man surprisingly didn’t let that woman follow him into the tent, but instead sat by the campfire, gesturing for Chen Nuo to come over for a chat.

Chen Nuo glanced at the somewhat disappointed woman heading to her own tent, then smiled as he sat next to the Son of the Sun.

The old man looked at Chen Nuo: "Do you have any thoughts?"

"Why are you asking?"

"You’re cunning. I don’t think you’ll always obediently follow Octopus Monster’s demands, especially with so many grievances between you two. I expect that over time, you’ll probably start some mischief."

Chen Nuo stared into the Son of the Sun’s eyes: "So what do you mean by asking me this? Do you want to alert Octopus Monster, or join me in pulling a job against them?"

The old man surprisingly dropped his playful demeanor, his expression turning serious as he looked into Chen Nuo’s eyes.

After a moment of silence, the Son of the Sun spoke softly, "Don’t act recklessly."

"...Hmm? What?"

"I’m saying, this time don’t act recklessly, don’t stir things up." The Son of the Sun’s tone was unexpectedly heavy.

Chen Nuo frowned.

"Don’t misunderstand, I don’t have such loyalty to Octopus Monster," the Son of the Sun shook his head, "It’s just... I suddenly have a very bad premonition."

Premonition?

Chen Nuo instinctively wanted to laugh.

"I’m not joking."

The Son of the Sun’s tone was serious, with no hint of jest.

"I know many people consider me among the weaker Controllers. Some even say I might be the weakest Controller," the Son of the Sun whispered.

Chen Nuo felt a bit embarrassed — he’d said that himself before.

"But have you ever thought about why, despite possibly not being a remarkable Controller, I’ve managed to survive unharmed for decades?

It’s not because my power is strong enough, but because... I’ve never faced any deadly danger!

Do you know why?

Every time there was a potential deadly threat, I’d have an extremely special Sixth Sense alerting me of a crisis lying ahead that could endanger my life.

This premonition ability is my main reason for being a long-lived Controller who’s still lively and intact today."

Chen Nuo looked at the Son of the Sun—based on his understanding of the guy, Chen Nuo was certain the other wasn’t joking.

Chen Nuo was just a bit surprised: "A premonition of danger? This ability is quite rare."

"Indeed, it’s very rare, almost akin to a prophecy-like ability. It’s similar to the causality sensing ability. Such abilities are extremely rare in this world, and even among prophetic and premonition abilities, their power level isn’t high.

Chen Nuo, this is my biggest reliance... More crucial to me than my Controller combat strength.

Also, it’s a secret known to no more than three people, and now, besides me, only you know it."

Chen Nuo frowned: "Why would you reveal such a key secret of yours to me?"

"Because... of the reason I just mentioned.

I feel extremely bad! Extremely!"

Chen Nuo stared at the Son of the Sun: "Tell me more about your feeling."

"I can’t foresee the events, only pre-sense future dangers, which must be potentially deadly to trigger my bad premonition, and the timeframe isn’t long.

Throughout these decades, the farthest I’ve sensed a danger was a major threat within a week at most.

Previously, in our dealings, whether it was the South America encounter or your several tricks luring me to help you fight, even battling against Seed...

I never had such a premonition. So whenever you tricked me into battling, I went along—even though you’d fool me, none of those, review-wise, were truly dangerous.

But this time is different.

On the first day, before splitting into teams, I felt nothing.

As we searched these days, I initially felt nothing.

It wasn’t until today after we returned from searching.

I suddenly had a strong sense of impending danger, that right ahead, lurks a terrifying danger threatening my life.

Like a pitch-black night road where I can’t see the path, yet I feel in the darkness ahead, a monster has opened its maw, waiting for us to walk straight in.

Chen Nuo frowned in thought.

Previously no sensation, the premonition started just tonight...

"Is it possible that we’ve actually discovered something or, rather than us finding the enemy, they’ve found us?

But instead of taking action, they’re hidden, observing us quietly?

Like, right now?"

The Son of the Sun pondered: "Could be.

Just like the last time in South America Tropical Rainforest, Relic World, during the clash with Seed.

Our team in the rainforest had already been discovered by Seed’s slumbering Guardian Controller expert.

Thus, he repeatedly ambushed your camp.

This time... perhaps the Fourth Seed’s guard has found us, hiding, waiting for the chance to ambush us?"

Chen Nuo suddenly asked: "Given your ability, relying on your premonition ability for years to escape danger...

Now that you have such a premonition, didn’t you consider immediately withdrawing from this action, leaving here?"

The Son of the Sun answered honestly: "Believe me, I’ve thought about that! When my premonition emerged, my first reaction was to flee.

Yet later I realized, even if I resolved to exit, wanting to leave here right away...

Upon having such notions, the premonition grew stronger rather than vanishing."

Chen Nuo squinted, scanning around the campsite in all directions away...

Looking at the darkness over the forest, grass, mining...

"Is someone really hiding nearby, watching us?"
