Desperate Night.

Chapter 201 Behind the Scenes
chapped.

Inside the Stone Fort in Black Wind Camp.

Yu Hong sat by the window, enjoying the cool breeze outside while carving a new talisman board.

He went on board for a test a few days ago and made sure there was nothing wrong with his body. Then he came back again to make new props.

He was trying to carve a three-dimensional talisman board, which was to superimpose multiple layers on the same talisman board, draw the talismans in multiple layers, and then produce a combined effect.

In this way, different runes can produce a collaborative amplification effect, greatly enhancing the effect of the rune board.

He felt the wind and breathed in the fresh air outside. After the toxic air was filtered through the breathing valve, only the strong smell of the filter remained.

But in Yu Hong's heart, he still felt that the air outside was fresher.

"With the vortex rune as the core, the deceleration rune as the closed shell, and the concealment rune to further shrink the breath fluctuations, so as to avoid the natural hedging effect with the red value radiation in the outside air. Finally."

He paused.

"Finally, use the traction rune to further compress the negative radiation inside. The vortex rune absorbs and converts the radiation energy to increase the concentration and enhance the power of the explosion."

pat.

The last of the sawdust fell off, and the thick wooden board in Yu Hong's hand was successfully carved.

Although it was just a test sample, the moment it was completed, a hint of white light of internal energy flashed across the hollow array pattern on the surface of the brown wooden board.

The white light flashed and disappeared so quickly that it seemed as if one was dazzled.

At the same time, accompanied by a flash of white light, this new symbol board began to slowly absorb the red value of the surrounding air and store it.

"Nine vortex rune plates are linked together into one, and with many amplification and strengthening designs, once the power of this rune plate is fully reserved, it will probably far exceed that of a radiation grenade."

"A radiation grenade can reach 7,000 negative radiation values. I wonder how much this one can reach?"

Yu Hong was looking forward to it.

"After we make a few more pieces, we can officially explore the Black Ship."

Put the talisman board down. This thing absorbs red value better outside. The concentration of red value in the air inside the cave is too low and the replenishment speed is also low, so it is far less fast than outside.

Yu Hong stood up and looked at the talisman board.

"It's so big, about the size of a notebook, so let's just call it a radiation bomb."

During these days, one person was in the stone fortress, one person was in the cave, and one person was patrolling the secondary security area with the dragon lizard.

Yu Hong gradually felt lonely. Except when he was on the communicator, he could not hear any human voices most of the time. Sometimes he even felt that he was losing his hearing ability. So sometimes he would take the initiative to say something to stimulate and maintain his hearing.

With the sound of clattering footsteps, Yu Hong went downstairs to check the breeding boxes, took out the mature mushrooms and lizards, and threw them into the drying box to make dried mushrooms and jerky.

The so-called drying box is actually a sealed wood-clad iron box connected to the hot water pipe. It uses the heat from the cooling water pipe to continuously dry with high efficiency.

It can be done in just two days.

After doing all this, he would go to the cave to practice as usual and refine his internal energy.

Then, after preparing all the equipment and supplies, Yu Hong once again waited until dark and came to the back of the cave carrying his things.

Standing within the range of the formation, close to the stone wall.

Behind him was a grayish-white mountain wall with a few dry and charred vines hanging down, having long been dead.

Yu Hong stared at the black stream in front of him and opened the baffle of the atomic lamp at his waist.

Swish.

Suddenly a green light shone out, illuminating the familiar wooden bridge.

Yu Hong stood still with his head slightly tilted.

Suddenly, two dragon lizards rushed out from the side and went onto the wooden bridge.

He followed closely behind, and the four dragon lizards followed behind him.

This time, he decided to go on board again and try again. He had to investigate clearly where the black ship was heading to and what its relationship was with the wooden bridge.

Amid the creaking sounds, Yu Hong walked slowly on the wooden bridge, staring nervously at both sides from time to time. He gathered his internal energy in his legs, ready to retreat and escape at any time.

The dark river water on both sides kept rolling, making a sticky sound, as if something dangerous might rush out at any time.

All the way forward.

Fortunately, no accidents happened until they arrived in front of the black ship.

Whoosh!
A ground dragon lizard rushed onto the black boat first, searched quickly, and only allowed Yu Hong to board after making sure there was no danger.

Click.

As soon as he stepped onto the deck of the ship, Yu Hong felt an inexplicable spiritual shock. The self-destructive tendencies that had appeared before reappeared in his mind, but were instantly dispersed by his internal energy.

The endless supply of internal energy offsets the self-destructive tendencies that are everywhere around.

"Isn't this a kind of spiritual pollution?" Yu Hong felt a chill in his heart and carefully felt the speed at which his internal energy was being consumed. At this rate, one internal energy could last for about an hour.

Fortunately, he has plenty of internal energy and can hold on for more than a day, so there is no major problem for the time being.

The deck of the black ship felt like thick, slippery moss, and one could easily slip if one was not careful.

Yu Hong took every step very carefully.

He looked around.

The black ship is divided into the bow, hull and stern.

At the bow is a dark square main control room, through the holes in the wooden boards you can see a rather primitive turntable rudder.

There was a mast on the hull, and a tattered black sail was hung on the mast. Three words could be faintly seen on the sail, but he didn't recognize them at all.

At the stern, the fence was broken, and black water splashed up from time to time, wetting the deck. A black anchor was tied to a protruding thick wooden stake.

Yu Hong first went to the main control room, lowered his head slightly, and entered the room.

In addition to the main control rudder, there are several cabinets fixed to the ground in the room.

A round wooden stool was broken on the ground, and there were several broken pieces of brown porcelain that were stuck in the wooden wall and could not move.

Yu Hong walked to the cabinets and pulled off the iron locks. The rotten wood broke apart, and the cabinets opened one by one, revealing the rotten and blackened mess inside.

Rotting wooden food box.

A pile of black cloth tied with rope.

There were a bunch of small metal bottles of varying sizes, all pitch black, used for unknown purposes.

Yu Hong patiently opened the cabinets one by one and took out everything inside.

Soon, he paused and took out a thread-bound blue book from under the clothes in a cupboard.

When he opened it, he saw a dense mass of distorted characters that he didn't recognize, which made him feel dizzy.

There is a lot of content written in black and white. The booklet has more than 30 pages, and at least half of it is written.

Moreover, the material seems to have been specially treated and there is no sign of decay at all.

Yu Hong put it away and prepared to take it out to check and decipher it.

He is not good at this, but there are people who are good at it.

After taking the book, he emptied the small metal bottle. There was nothing in it and he didn't know what it was used for. After making sure there was nothing else worth taking, Yu Hong tried to move the rudder.

puff.

The entire rudder was slightly turned by it and broke on the spot.

"." Yu Hong was speechless and turned to leave the control room.

At this time, the black ship had already started sailing.

The river water on both sides hit the hull, making a rhythmic and crisp sound.

This sound and the sound of the wind blowing across the deck echoed with each other, forming an inexplicable cry that was like a groan.

The sound of the wind is crying, and the splash of water is sobbing.

Yu Hong stood at the side of the ship, looking at the scene in the distance.

Shrouded in black fog, nothing could be seen on the distant shore. Only in a small area illuminated by a green atomic light could one see the faint black river bank passing by.

It happened very quickly, in about ten minutes.

creak.

The black ship slowly slowed down and stopped at an equally dilapidated black wooden bridge pier.

This wooden bridge at the pier is much shorter than the previous one, only seven or eight meters long. Standing on the black boat, you can vaguely see the situation on the shore.

Yu Hong moved the atomic lamp to shine over there. The shore was pale white. The shore away from the wooden bridge was covered with fine pale white gravel.

Under the green light, the gravel reflects an even more pale green luster.

Whoosh.

A dragon lizard commanded by Yu Hong got off the boat, ran along the wooden bridge pier, and rushed to the shore.

The dragon lizard quickly sank into the black fog and disappeared.

Watching the dragon lizard disappear, Yu Hong quickly shared the vision and switched to the dragon lizard's perspective.

The pale gravel ground kept sliding across, and slowly, the ground began to change color, becoming grayer and gradually black.

Soon it turned into black mud.

Small, dry weeds gradually appeared around the dragon lizard.

It continued to move forward, and soon a small square black field appeared in front of it.

The fields were rotten and there was no crop left.

After crossing the black fields, the dragon lizard looked up far ahead and saw that the black fields were connected one after another, all the way to the distant front.

Further away, on a high slope, there was a gray-white house. A pale lantern was hung on the gate of the house, illuminating a little bit of the surrounding area.

"This place," Yu Hong frowned and looked around, "feels very wrong."

He controlled the dragon lizard to approach the house, but soon, the black ship started moving again, and the surrounding scene was once again wrapped in black fog and disappeared. The dragon lizard's shared vision also disappeared.

Soon, the dilapidated wooden bridge behind the camp reappeared in front of Yu Hong.

He knew he was back.

"It's a good time to test it. Let the dragon lizard stay there for a little longer to see if anything will happen."

Yu Hong jumped off the black boat, carrying the looted books, and the other five dragon lizards along the wooden bridge back to the formation range.

Yu Hong quickly returned to the cave and took out the book he had just looted from his bag. He gently opened it, but it was blank, with nothing inside.

'? ? !' He frowned, picked up the charcoal pencil, and tried to recall the characters he had just seen, but strangely, no matter how hard he tried, he could not recall the shapes and contents of the characters.

"Can't bring it out? How to decipher it?" He checked the time and quickly came to the cave on the first floor and turned on the communicator.

Zhang Kaijun was indeed still online.

"Something?" he asked briefly.

"How do you know something's wrong with me?" Yu Hong was speechless.

"Because you won't be online if you have nothing to do." Zhang Kaijun replied.

"There is a situation." Yu Hong thought for a while, but did not tell others about his exploration of the wooden bridge black ship. As for the wooden bridge black ship, except for him, the others might not even be able to enter. The self-destructive tendency of mental pollution, without internal energy to counteract it, would probably lead to suicide on the spot.

So he just said that he tried it with his internal energy, but got no results and encountered danger. But he got a special writing system from somewhere else and hoped to decipher it.

"How to decipher an unknown language? I don't have any idea. Wait a minute, I'll find an expert to tell you." Zhang Kaijun was very helpful and immediately gave up the communicator.

After a while, a somewhat tired middle-aged man's voice came from the communicator.

"Hello, Mr. Yu. I'm Chen Tingrong from Huicheng, specializing in linguistics. Regarding your question, if you want to learn a language you've never heard of from scratch, what you need most is to collect a large number of samples. Including samples of different types and scenarios. Then determine the writing system, whether it is pictographic or phonetic, and then determine the commonly used vocabulary or grammatical elements through the frequently appearing characters and phrases."
