Desperate Night.

Chapter 186 Dark Night 186

"Still leaving?" Yu Hong couldn't understand. Three people had died, but this little stutterer still didn't give up and wanted to go.

"This time, An An and I will go." Lin Yiyi said calmly.

Standing behind her was An An, who had obviously discussed the matter with her.

The two had packed their backpacks and belongings and were standing together outside the fence.

There was silence for a while.

"Have you brought enough food and drink?" When Yu Hong saw the other person's expression, he knew that he could not persuade him anymore.

"Replenish, drink water, that's enough." Yiyi replied in a low voice.

Her teammates died because of her, and it was so heavy that even her words seemed a little heavy.

"Radiation grenade." Yu Hong turned around and quickly loaded a half-loaded radiation grenade and stuffed it into her hand.

"I know I can't persuade you, take care." He saw the determination in the little stutterer.

It seemed that the other party was not just looking for his relatives, there was something else in his eyes.

"If I come across a stone talisman, I will leave it for you." Yiyi said again at last.

Turning around, she, Xue Ningning and Ou Li waved their hands, put on their big bags, and left the safe zone.

Xue Ningning and Ou Li did not follow them this time. They just watched the two people leave and gradually disappeared into the fog of the night.

After watching them leave, Yu Hong ignored Xue Ningning and the others. Instead, he narrowed his eyes, returned to the cave, and turned on the communicator.

Sure enough, as soon as it was opened, Zhang Kaijun's voice came out from inside.

"It's been a while since we last met, Yu Hong." This guy seems to be online all the time.

"There is information that needs to be exchanged." Yu Hong said in a deep voice.

"explain."

"Have your people encountered any special buildings that appear and disappear at night recently?"

"Architecture?" Zhang Kaijun raised his voice and paused, as if asking.

Soon the sound came again.

"My subordinate team reported this before. I thought it was an illusion caused by the toxins in the increasingly bad air. After all, anything could happen in the Black Disaster."

"It doesn't seem like an illusion. I plan to investigate it a little bit." Yu Hong said.

"This is not important. I do have new information about the Mesa family. It came from Flika." Zhang Kaijun paused and changed the subject.

"You say." Yu Hong said quickly.

"The joint forces on the Flika side have preliminarily confirmed that a total of sixteen people from the Mesa family used unknown means to go to pyroxene mines in various places and completely polluted and destroyed almost all the pyroxene. After the long-range bombing, they mobilized the army to surround and kill two of them, and rescued a pyroxene mine in time. At the same time, they also obtained some relevant intelligence from other families that had contact with the Mesa family." Zhang Kaijun said quickly.

"Do you know what the purpose of this family is?" Yu Hong frowned.

"I'm not sure, but some relevant clues have already appeared. After all, as long as you are a human, you must have physiological needs. Now that the Black Disaster Rift has been fixed, traveling has become much safer. The situation has become relatively stable, and it's a good time to deal with this matter." Zhang Kaijun replied. "Also, the outsourced trading team is coming soon, pay attention to the surroundings."

"Okay," Yu Hong responded, but for some reason, he always felt that the information provided by Xue Ningning and the others was not that simple.

Mysterious buildings of a style never seen before appeared at night.
He stood up and the communication ended. He pressed one hand on the wall and once again let the black seal start to strengthen the defense of the entire cave. After making the arrangements, he put aside his hesitation and continued to practice Qi in the basement.

This time, the situation stabilized for longer than Yu Hong expected.

The heavy rain continued for another three days before it stopped.

There were no other high-risk black disasters approaching here, and the intensity of the blood tide remained unchanged. The Black Wind Camp ushered in its first stable period since its construction.

Yu Hong quietly practiced the internal energy of the Thunder Leg, occasionally maintained the breeding boxes, checked the camp situation, and assigned the two people outside to tasks of looting abandoned warehouses in the nearby urban area. There was nothing else to do.

Xue Ningning and Ou Li accepted the mission and would occasionally find some miscellaneous food and tools and materials nearby.

Time passed slowly, and gradually everyone began to adapt to the way of traveling along the Black Disaster Fissure.

Yu Hong also successfully cultivated his internal energy to the fifth level.

After this level is the final sixth level, and from there on, the Thunder Leg Technique will be completely perfected.

In fact, his speed is basically enough now. During this period of time, Yu Hong has been using black seals to repeatedly strengthen the entire cave.

After the material of the laminated wood door gradually turned into some unknown gray-brown substance, the hardness of the walls and doors and windows reached the point where even if Yu Hong cut them with a knife himself, only shallow marks would be left.

Therefore, he began to target the black disaster and continued to increase the number of black lizards. Because of the breakthrough of internal energy, the number of black lizards increased again, reaching thirteen.

So, he began to use the black lizards to constantly observe changes in the surrounding situation. A larger number of black lizards gave him more control over the surrounding environment.

Although thirteen black lizards were nothing if spread out over a three-kilometer radius, some places that had previously escaped notice began to gradually emerge under Yu Hong's carpet-style search.

Finally, when he was investigating the barren mountains south of the camp, some special changes appeared in Yu Hong's vision.

*
*
*
The boots stepped on the ground, just like stepping on soft carpet.

The ground in the forest was like a rag soaked in water. It sank slightly when stepped on, and dark brown sewage overflowed.

The sky was bright.

Yu Hong crossed the hill where the cave was and came to the south of the camp, which he had never been to before.

Behind the mountain is a stretch of rolling hills.

The once lush hilly area is now only left with bare dead trees, and between the hills is a rushing muddy black river mixed with a large amount of black mud, gravel and driftwood that has just been washed in.

Yu Hong roughly determined his location and continued to move forward.

The black lizards kept moving around him. This time he brought five black lizards, distributed within a hundred meters around him, patrolling for any suspicious targets.

All the way forward.

Soon, he came to the river between the hills, stood on the rocky beach by the river, and observed the surroundings.

This river was obviously formed temporarily by heavy rain.

On the other side of the river was another bare hill covered with dry vines and moss. Yu Hong looked up at the sky and stopped moving, but carefully took note of the surrounding environment.

Then he stood there, seemingly waiting.

Time passes slowly.

Soon, the sky gradually darkened, the scarce light was shrouded in darkness, and the fog gradually turned black.

The whole world gradually fell into darkness again.

"Even the moonlight is gone?" Yu Hong looked up.

The sky above was like a basin of murky black sewage, with only thick fog that was rapidly turning black on the surface, overlooking everything.

The rest can't see anything.

Another ten minutes passed.

Yu Hong stretched out his hand, but he couldn't even see his palm which was so close to him.

There was no light around him at all. He was in darkness and it made no difference whether he opened his eyes or closed them.

"This level of darkness cannot be contained by the night," he felt awed.

He fumbled and took out a metal stick from the waist bag behind him. The black metal was hollow and the surface was full of hollow mesh holes.

A light green fluorescence appeared inside the net hole.

This is an enhanced atomic lamp. The light is much brighter than before and is almost comparable to a dimmer flashlight.

Yu Hong held the enhanced atomic lamp, took a step forward, raised it, and shone it towards the flowing river.

Sudden.

There is a bridge directly ahead.

The turbid river surface, which was empty just now, now had a black, rotten, and broken wooden bridge.

The wooden bridge deck is only about one meter wide and has no handrails. It is fixed on both sides by rotten wooden stakes nailed into the river.

Under the green light, you can still see black river water flowing slowly through some of the broken and leaking parts of the bridge.

Yu Hong stared at the wooden bridge and did not move forward.

He simply held the atomic lamp, stretched out his hand, and touched the nearest wooden fixing pile on the wooden bridge.

The cool, slightly hard touch of wood passed through my hands.

Yu Hong withdrew his hand, moved the atomic lamp away, and shone it to the side.

The front suddenly became dark again.

Then he stretched out his hand and reached forward.

This time, his fingers touched nothing.

It’s still the same position, the same action, exactly the same.

But this time, he felt nothing, no stake, nothing.

"This change." Yu Hong's eyes under his helmet were slightly cold. "It's like something is quietly approaching as the night deepens."

He had a very bad feeling in his heart.

Just like when people see something extremely dangerous and disgusting, they instinctively feel uncomfortable.

He took his hand back and picked up the atomic lamp again, shining it forward.

This time, the rotten wooden piles of the wooden bridge appeared again.

But.the difference is.

On the wooden bridge, which was empty just now, a figure suddenly appeared less than one meter in front of Yu Hong!
The figure was too close to him!

one meter!
There was only one meter between the two of them.

At this distance, you can touch the other person just by stretching out your hand.

Yu Hong was shocked. He didn't even know when the other party appeared!

Instinctively, he took a step back.

But he quickly steady himself, keeping his internal energy within himself, and stared at the other person calmly.

"Black disaster? Or blood tide? ? !" He quickly judged in his mind, but no matter what it was, he had to stay calm.

You have to quickly determine the opponent's attack mechanism.

Suddenly, the surroundings fell into silence.

On the bridge, with the green glow of the atomic lamp, Yu Hong saw that the man was wearing a tattered black coat and had long hair hanging down. He didn't know his gender, but he just lowered his head and stood quietly in front of him.

He slowly reached his hand behind his waist, took out a vortex rune board, and folded it gently.

puff!
A layer of negative radiation suddenly spread out in all directions with him as the center.

The radiation value is only six or seven hundred, but it can be used just right to test the opponent.

But just then!
The atomic lamps suddenly began to flicker in clusters, and the radiation lamps, which theoretically should not have any problems, actually began to flicker.

The green light flickered, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.

Yu Hong's heart trembled and he quickly stepped back.

When the light came on for the third time.

He was shocked to find that others were not retreating as he thought, but moving forward!
And one of his feet was already on the wooden bridge.

The two were only a dozen centimeters away from the figure! !
He could even smell the strong smell of rotting flesh and aquatic plants emanating from the other person!
