Desperate Night.

Chapter 228 Trouble 228

in the dark.

There was silence all around.

Yu Hong moved straight ahead and quietly along the winding road.

The front was extremely dark, with only a layer of white light from his internal energy lingering around his body, releasing a small amount of negative radiation to disperse any black bugs that might be around.

The training of the Thunder Leg Technique allowed him to move at 50% of his speed while minimizing the sound of his footsteps.

Although his current weight is much heavier than before.

On the dark road, there was a dragon lizard on each side, following Yu Hong.

With the help of their vision from time to time, Yu Hong was able to see the direction of the road ahead.

puff.

puff.

puff.

In the sound of barely audible footsteps.

Yu Hong took out the map, turned on the atomic light flashlight on his shoulder, and pulled open the baffle, revealing a tiny gap.

A faint green light shone on the map.

"We have walked about one fifth of the way," Yu Hong estimated.

On the map, to get to New Aurora City from the ground, you need to pass through three key nodes.

These three nodes are Nongyuan Town, Xinpeng City, and Yufei City.

On the map, these three dots flashed with a faint red light, and the one representing Yu Hong himself was a small green dot, which was only a few kilometers away from the nearest Nongyuan Town.

The Black Disaster Fissure causes the ground route to be far from straight, but rather winding and several times longer than a straight line.

But safety is the priority on this road.

Wow.

Fold the enhanced map.

Yu Hong tightened the big iron ball chain behind him and continued to move forward.

slowly.

The snow powder on the road ahead gradually became less, and a lot of messy marks of different sizes appeared on the road. These marks poked the snow powder into many dense holes.

Yu Hong squinted his eyes and looked forward. The dragon lizard's vision in the black fog could only see a range of fifteen or sixteen meters ahead. He couldn't see clearly whether there was any danger further away.

As he continued to move forward on the abandoned road, a vertical road sign suddenly appeared on the right side of the road.

The appearance is a gray-white metal pole with peeling paint stuck in the ground, with a rectangular road sign on top of it, which is a bit crooked.

It says in black letters on a white background: Nongyuan Town welcomes you.

There is another line of small words below: Fruits are wholesaled to the farm, the country's largest fruit market welcomes you.

Below that, there is a red arrow pointing forward.

call.

Yu Hong exhaled from the breathing valve, followed the direction indicated by the arrow, and continued on his way.

In the black and white dragon lizard's vision, the road ahead was empty and there was nothing.

But as time goes by.

Slowly, Yu Hong heard faint and strange sounds coming from the distance on both sides.

The sound seemed to be the sound of the wind, but also seemed to be some rough friction sound.

With the help of the dragon lizard, he looked to the right.

Outside the road on the right, there are already a number of ordinary gray and white bungalows appearing sparsely.

These small bungalows, which are common in rural areas, have a large cement yard in front of the door.

Some yards have clotheslines hanging, while others have farm products spread out on the ground to dry.

It looks as if there are still people living here.

creak.

suddenly.

Yu Hong paused.

Through the dragon lizard's vision, he saw a dark figure just open the door and walk out of a two-story building on the right, walk slowly across the second-floor balcony, and soon disappear into another shadow.

Swish.

Yu Hong glanced at the detector on his collar and saw that the red value had soared to over 100,000.

Pursing his lips, he experienced firsthand what kind of situation the Shucheng caravan had been going through.

If one keeps traveling on this route, even the most normal person will become mentally ill.

puff.

He continued to move forward, and the dragon lizards on both sides also moved forward quietly.

The three of them hurried along the road.

Soon, more and more rural buildings and bungalows appeared on the roadside.

Winding side roads began to appear on both sides of the road.

The side roads were all yellow mud roads, leading to dark farmlands and extending into the depths of black fog with no end in sight.

In the courtyards in front of these small buildings and bungalows, black figures stood there silently. They did not move, facing Yu Hong. Their faces were blurred and it was unclear whether they were looking at him or had always been in this posture.

The values ​​in the detector sometimes soared rapidly, and sometimes suddenly dropped back to normal.

Yu Hong did not take the initiative to provoke, but followed the route on the map and moved forward calmly.

Slowly, the houses on both sides began to become sparse. More than half an hour later, he passed through the farm town and sped away towards the wilderness.

Bang.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise of something heavy falling on the road ahead.

Bang.

One sound after another. Yu Hong narrowed his eyes, stopped, and stared at the black fog in front of him.

Soon, a huge spider over one meter tall slowly walked out on the road on the right side in front.

But the eight legs of this spider are not limbs, but gray-white legs.

Between the human legs, where the spider's back should have been, there was a pale white face with closed eyes and a smile.

The skin on the human face is very much like ceramic, smooth and delicate, with no visible pores at all.

Bang.

Bang.

Bang.

The strange spider ignored Yu Hong and slowly passed by him. Soon it disappeared in the black fog behind it.

'Level 4 Black Disaster, Sleeping Human Spider' The information about this black disaster flashed through Yu Hong's mind.

He had no intention of alarming it. Facing the black disaster, as long as the other party did not take the initiative to attack, he would never cause trouble.

Because the Black Disaster can be revived infinitely, no matter how hard you try you can never kill them all. Instead of doing that, it is better to save your energy to deal with the more dangerous high-risk Black Disaster.

Keep going.

Beep! !
Suddenly, a clear electric bell sounded from the far left.

Then, the sound of children's noise and laughter could be heard faintly.

Yu Hong paused and looked in that direction.

Black fog was rolling over there, and a yellow mud road branched off from the highway and extended into the fog.

Beep beep!

This time it was the sensor embedded in his collar that went off.

On the LCD screen, numbers were flashing wildly, sometimes negative, sometimes millions, tens of millions, and hundreds of millions, and then suddenly cleared to zero and became blank.

popping.

Yu Hong reached out and patted the detector to turn off the alarm.

'broken?'

He didn't expect the detector to detect all dangers, but he hadn't walked far when he saw it.
at this time.

On the left side of the fork in the road, a group of little figures carrying schoolbags were walking towards here in a line with brisk steps.

These figures were all grey and black, blurry and unclear, and one could only barely make out that they were elementary school students carrying school bags.

They had smiling faces, pale skin, and more or less wounds and blood on their bodies.

These students didn't seem to notice Yu Hong. Instead, they lined up one after another, crossed the road and passed in front of him.

One by one.

They jumped down from the roadside one after another and disappeared into the black fog.
till the end.

The last short-haired figure carrying a small schoolbag suddenly stopped and turned to look at Yu Hong.

He stood there, motionless, as if he had suddenly transformed from a moving being into a sculpture.

Yu Hong hesitated for a moment, then continued to move forward as planned.

"I am in the Black Calamity Rift, they will not easily take action and cause conflict. So, as long as the Black Calamity does not take action against me, I will not move."

Step by step, he and the dragon lizard slowly moved away from the figure of the elementary school student, and the other party kept moving his face quietly along with him.

It was not until the distance was increased and the other party was completely submerged in the black fog and disappeared that the detector's randomly jumping values ​​disappeared.

'Except for Aurora City and a few large strongholds, there are probably no living people left in this world.'

Yu Hong suddenly felt heavy-hearted.

He guessed that he might be the only survivor outside the big stronghold.

In silence, he quickened his pace again.

“Run away??!”

Inside a heavy armored vehicle heading to a military airport.

Xin Zhilei stared grimly at the subordinate officer who came to report.

"I sent so many men down there, and they were surrounded by the lured black disaster, and you told me that they escaped?!"

"It's not my fault. Your men were discovered to be amiss by them in advance, and they started to resist before boarding the plane, which led to the people on the committee following suit." The subordinate officer was not panicked at all and still answered with a smile.

He raised his head slightly, and on his face was a smiling black metal mask, so his real appearance could not be seen.

"Don't think this is just my problem!" Xin Zhilei said angrily, "Once the list on the USB drive is exposed, no one in the association can avoid it! Do you think you can escape? Aurora City hasn't collapsed yet."

"In fact, there are still many contradictions in the association. The list of the Mesha family is extremely lethal to some people, but to others... you understand. Therefore, mobilizing the power of the association is not what you think, that everyone will cooperate," said the black-masked man with a smile.

"Oh, what conditions?!" Although Xin Zhilei knew that the other party was taking advantage of her misfortune, she had to suppress her anger and ask the price at this point.

She has not yet fully controlled the overall situation in the Second Aurora City. Once exposed, the good situation may be ruined in an instant.

But if the destruction of evidence is successful this time, with the merit of dealing with the two people from the Mesha family, and with the help of the association to get more water, and the support of the main force of the coalition army here, then her fame and power in the Second Aurora City will reach its peak.

By then, even the head of the committee won't be able to order her around!!
"According to the current situation, searching for these people around the city is like looking for a needle in a haystack. After all, there are too many black disasters, and many of them are high-risk black disasters that cannot be lured by the association's bait." The man in the black mask analyzed.

"So, only by dispatching the strongest black blood people in the association can they freely enter and exit the vicinity of the high-risk black disaster and ensure the successful completion of the mission."

"Black-blooded man." Xin Zhilei's expression changed slightly.

"Yes, this is the only way. Of course, there are risks in mobilizing the black-blooded people. You should understand that although they are named as humans, they are actually..." said the black-masked man with a smile.

"If we had been more decisive at the beginning and killed all the members of the Mesha family, we wouldn't have so much trouble now!" Xin Zhilei punched the metal table in front of her.

"Also, I would like to remind you that according to the records of Yingshan Civilization, the basic situation of the Black Disaster has come to an end, and the Association has obtained what it should have obtained. Next, in about half a year, the Gate of Despair belonging to the Cold Disaster will naturally open, and I hope you can prepare in advance."

"Thanks for the reminder!" Xin Zhilei gritted her teeth and took a deep breath. "I will use one fifth of my share and hire a black-blooded person to go out!"

"As you wish."

The black-masked man smiled slightly, stepped back, and suddenly disappeared into the shadows.

The environment inside the armored vehicle suddenly changed from silence to a large number of external sounds.

Only Xin Zhilei, with an ugly look on her face, was left sitting alone in her seat with a fierce look in her eyes.
