"The Red Blade wouldn't be as polite as you. They're all lunatics who just send people to their deaths." The big boy muttered to himself. In the darkness, Kagura Tendou noticed that his expression was complex, showing both longing and fear.
"I heard that the Red Vanguard was formed from the remnants of the resistance army. Don't you like them?"
“If they’re just going to their deaths, then I’ll like them.”
Notan's tone was confused; he seemed undecided.

"Brother, are you really a member of the resistance?"
Nottan was very outgoing and friendly, with no awkwardness or shyness at all, and his attitude was very warm and generous.
Kagura Tendo calmly said, "You can think of it that way."
"But you don't look much older than me."
"I have a tender face."
"Really? Besides here, how many other places have you been?"
“Many,” Tendou Kagura said silently. This place was too awful; he had no idea how much longer humanity could hold out.
What are you looking for?
Tendou Kagura sighed softly: "To find the vitality of this land."
Noan paused, as if surprised, feeling that the statement had a grand perspective.
Suddenly, the place fell silent, except for the sound of packaging being torn open. A little child was taking small bites of chocolate, making a rustling sound, but when he noticed that it was quiet, he quickly stopped chewing.
"Has it been found?"
"I see no hope."
After a moment, Notan said seriously, "...The resistance is going to regroup its troops? I can join. My father once told me that hope cannot be found or waited for."
"Does humanity still have the strength to assemble an army?" Kagura Tendou asked in return. As far as he knew, the remaining millions of people were scattered in various places, the gap was too large, and their living space was compressed to the limit, with various restrictions.
Resource scarcity and population shortage—these two factors alone have virtually locked down all human activities. Humans currently have no way to confront these things head-on.
However, he had heard that Chi Feng had inherited the complete legacy of the resistance army and could resist attacks from strange creatures, but he had never seen it with his own eyes and had doubts.
“If needed, we can all join. I’ve carefully selected them; they have a good foundation. I often take them to carry those old, unusable guns without bullets and practice target shooting.” As he spoke in the darkness, he patted the children beside him.
The children looked bewildered at first, but then seemed to remember something and nodded vigorously.
This kid actually formed a gang and used coercion and bribery; those kids clearly didn't understand what this meant...
Kagura Tendo didn't know how to evaluate Notan's behavior.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in and entered the room, and he smelled a faint scent of blood.
Kagura Tendou's body was originally sitting on the desk, while the children sat in chairs and talked to him.
But suddenly, his muscles tensed, his body leaned forward, and he moved swiftly, like a nimble cheetah charging out.
A gust of wind suddenly swept through the makeshift office.
Notan sensed something was wrong almost instantly; it seemed like something had darted out, but the gust of wind didn't feel like a strange object was moving.
"Big brother!"
He called out first, but received no response, so he knew this was an unusual phenomenon.
He was immediately shocked and furious, but not understanding what had happened, he suddenly stood up and whispered, "Everyone lie down, press yourselves against the ground, and find something to cover your vital parts."
Then he staggered out of the office.
In the dark, you must not emit light or make any sound, otherwise you will increase the probability of attracting shadowy creatures.
Accustomed to moving forward in the dark, and relying on his familiarity with the surrounding terrain, he almost quickly found the factory gate and smelled the stench of blood.
He heard noises and screams coming from there, followed by a flash of light.
Someone turned on the lights.
Nottan rushed over, and by the light, he came to the front door and found it was half open.
Before even entering, Notan froze in place upon seeing the situation inside.
Several familiar figures lay dead in pools of blood, their lives extinguished. Kagura, who had just been talking to him, was now squatting on the ground, holding a blood-stained longsword in one hand and picking up a precious crystal from the ground with the other.
"Big...Big Brother?"
Everyone stared intently at the unfamiliar visitor, and they were even more shocked when they saw the blood-stained long knife he was carrying, almost speechless.
Many people were seeing the scene of the Shadow Creature's death for the first time and found it extremely magical.
"It seems I lured it here." Kagura Tendou sighed softly as she looked at the corpses.
This was also his first time spending the night near a human settlement, and he never expected something like this to happen.
“It’s not your fault. Nobody knows when they’ll come looking for you,” said a haggard-looking adult.
Tendou Kagura remained silent. The city had been stable for a long time, and no one had died.
It's highly likely that he lured them here.
He didn't feel guilty, but he was quite unsettled.
When did humanity become so pathetic?
Even in primitive times, a dozen or so humans could gather together and roar through the mountains and forests, moving as fast as the wind.
In the darkness, those shadowy creatures roamed the land like merciless killing machines, leaving humanity decimated and even losing its most basic organizational abilities.
“I’ve said it many times, we can’t just sit here and wait to die.” Notan walked over, looking at the corpses with a sorrowful tone, his dark face flushed.
"Nortan, shut up! You have no right to speak here!" a burly middle-aged man with white hair, wearing an open coat, shouted angrily.
But Notan's voice was even louder. His eyes were bloodshot as he strode over, his muscular chest heaving violently. He roared, almost as if he were about to tear the roof off, "Are we just going to wait to die like this?!"
He couldn't bear it any longer, and he couldn't just sit and wait to die. A sense of shared fate, like that of a rabbit mourning the death of a fox, filled his heart and sent chills down his spine.
Several people immediately pulled the agitated Notan back to calm him down.
"Thank you for your help." Amid the noise, Tendou Kagura heard a voice in his ear. He turned his head and saw an adult with a deep weariness in his eyes. He was probably in his early thirties, but his hair was gray and his hairline was very high. He was probably the leader of the neighborhood.
"Without you, we don't know how many people would have died."
At this moment, his eyes were filled with sadness, and Tendou Kagura shook his head slightly.
"Are you injured?" His gaze lingered on Kagura's left hand, which was covered in blood as she held the crystal.
"It's alright," Tiandao Shenle said. When he was angry, he could activate the spiritual blood in his body, which could deal absolute damage to the monster. Therefore, he was able to end the battle in an instant and prevent it from teleporting away. Otherwise, he would not have been able to catch it at all.
He's gotten used to injuring himself before killing the enemy these days, and he's even taken off the tactical gloves he used to wear.
Are you Chifeng?
Many people have said this, but Kagura Tendo shook her head again: "I'm looking for them too."
He couldn't get any more confidential information from these people; perhaps only by finding Chifeng could he learn more.
"That's truly astonishing." The man stared at Tendou Kagura in amazement. He hadn't seen him make a move in the darkness, but he had seen it clearly when it ended. He was surprised. Apart from Akabane, when did humanity gain such a powerful figure? This was an existence that could only be seen in the era of the Resistance Army. He had opened a mysterious door and possessed power that surpassed that of humans.
Kagura Tendou stood tall and imposing, as still as a pine tree and as steady as a mountain. His mere presence was incredibly reassuring, though it's possible he had just killed a shadow creature.
He had a handsome face and wore black goggles, which concealed some of his charm but added a touch of mystery.

He examined it for a long time and determined that it was just an ordinary pair of goggles and probably did not have night vision capabilities.
He felt that Tendou Kagura must have been a member of the resistance army back then. Although her behavior did not show any military habits, the resistance army was established in a very hasty manner back then, and many people did not have time to be trained. Those who were qualified were directly grabbed and put to use, resulting in an extremely complex composition.
Shang Yang, the leader of the resistance army, was a visionary and decisive man. The first thing he did when he established the resistance army was to turn against his own side and pacify the rear. In order to completely control the resistance army, he joined forces with other generals to suppress high-ranking figures.
Those who were imprisoned were imprisoned, and those who were killed were killed. In just two days, all of humanity's power was united into one force.
Some high-ranking officials are still imprisoned in Tianzhu Chongjian and have not been released.
It is said that he established an extremely secretive unit at that time, named Bloodblade, but no one has ever seen it.
Therefore, whether that legendary army actually exists is unknown.
But now, he suspects that Tendou Kagura is a member of Blood Blade. He moves like the wind and lightning, and when he comes out, he directly kills a shadow monster without any fancy moves.
"If you are looking for Chifeng, you can go southwest and travel straight for 1,200 li."
Tendou Kagura nodded. After all these days, there was finally some accurate news.
Due to the disruption of human communication, transmission became difficult, almost regressing to the era when communication relied on shouting. The system map was also not omnipotent; it could only scan once and then reconstruct the surface environment based on the feedback information. It was impossible for it to monitor the entire land without limitation like a satellite.
He searched the land many times, examining every bit of it, but most of the areas were blank, and the filter was blurry, so he couldn't find Chifeng's location.
"The place where Chifeng is located is even more dangerous. I heard that they are attacked every night. If you go there, you will most likely die and encounter many terrible things. In addition to hordes of shadowy creatures, there are other things that like to appear at night. The fierce god and the red-winged sea ghost will climb ashore. Even during the day, there is a possibility of being attacked."
Chifeng is not safe now either, and many of the gathering places that sought refuge with them have lost contact.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" Kagura Tendo wiped the blood-stained blade clean and sheathed it.
"You're leaving already?" He was somewhat surprised; the night was now the domain of shadowy creatures.
"I have no reason to stay here any longer."
“No, we can’t move around in the dark, there’s no one…” He was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly remembered that Kagura Tendo should have night vision and extremely high combat power, so he said dejectedly, “Alright.”
“I originally hoped that you would take Notan to Red Peak.”
“He’s too young,” Kagura Tendo instinctively refused.
“But you’re mature enough,” the man said, looking at him with a heavy weariness in his eyes.
Kagura Tendo was silent for a moment: "Why..."
