Desperate Night.

Chapter 247 247 Thought
A few days later.

The white snow covered the entire Black Wind Camp again.

“The temperature is too low.”

Inside the cave, Yu Hong stood at the door and looked out through the viewing window.

The damaged end of the nuclear power plant's hot water pipe had long been frozen. The hot water pipes in the cave were constantly circulating, and because the outside temperature was getting lower and lower, there was no risk of overheating.

hold head high!
In the night sky outside, there was another roar of many large-eyed birds.

The dark mass of black disasters once again surged towards this side like a tide.

The high walls surrounding the camp were still standing, blocking the large group of monsters rushing towards them at a rapid speed.

The formation was operating at overload, releasing dense swarms of air crows that swooped down on the invaders.

All the monsters that enter the formation will be killed directly by the crows, while some that are not killed directly will be attached to and ignited by the crows, and forced to slow down.

Yu Hong looked at the lively confrontation scene outside.

"This is the third time. It's only been a few days and you've come three times. Can't wait?"

The high walls of the outer courtyard are already badly damaged and could crack and collapse at any time.

The dragon lizards could no longer stand on the top of the wall and spit fire, so they had to land on the ground and fight hand-to-hand with the influx of black disasters.

With the help of the formation's deceleration and continuous damage effects, the dragon lizard continued to strangle the high-risk black disasters that entered.

The spearmen appeared and disappeared in the black fog, and the spears that kept flying out from behind made it impossible for all the slower black disasters to dodge. Combined with the formation, it relieved a lot of pressure on the dragon lizards.

puff!
In the darkness, six muscle spears pierced through the mist and pierced into two ape-like bloody monsters, tearing them into pieces.

The muscle spear was quickly retracted, and those black disasters who wanted to chase were cut off on the spot by black fire lines.

The spearmen exerted their full lethality to the best of their ability.

"A very useful weapon." Yu Hong withdrew his gaze from behind the door and returned to the wooden table.

There was a piece of white paper on the table, on which was written his summary of tracking techniques, most of which were learned from Chen Yaofeng and Zhang Kaijun.

And now, this piece of paper is about to be strengthened.

He had had enough of the unknown opponents who often came to disrupt the camp.

A few minutes later.

The white paper blurred instantly and transformed into a small notebook with a dark red plastic cover.

There is no writing on the cover of the book, but the edges are worn and show signs of age.

Yu Hong let out a breath and picked up the small notebook.

The notebook is only the size of a palm and is about the same thickness as a person's palm.

Turn to the first page.

'Flashbacks.'

Clear and neat handwriting appeared in front of Yu Hong.

He opened it and read it carefully, and found that it was a book of special skills left by a hunter master from an unknown era. It was a summary of special skills used to track prey.

The techniques range from shallow to deep and are very comprehensive and complex.

'I can't master it completely in a short period of time, but I can learn slowly. It's much better than being like a headless fly before.'

Yu Hong put down the booklet. He was not worried that it would be stolen because the words on it were all in Chinese and no one could understand it except him.

Listening to the sounds of fighting coming from outside, he raised his hand and looked at the crescent mark on the back of his hand.

"Speaking of which, the target of the Moon Call itself is problematic. Even if I increase the concentration of the Moon God bloodline and become qualified to summon, there may be backlash. So why not just extract the valuable aspects of the Moon Call ability?"

'Since everything except me can be strengthened, can the ability of this Moon Calling be strengthened again?'

A solution suddenly came to his mind.

'The Crescent Moon is a reinforced product. To further strengthen it, other new items must be added.'

Thinking of this, he ignored the noisy fighting outside and got up and went to the storage corner.

The wooden frames here are filled with various Black Disaster relics he obtained from hunting outside.

The most abundant thing was half a basket of ordinary black broken bones.

Next are some oval-shaped or round individuals that resemble stones.

Next are some model-like broken hands and feet, wood pieces with texture, etc.

After these days of fighting, Yu Hong had accumulated a lot of various relics.

He walked over, bent down and rummaged around inside.

"Among the calling abilities, what I need most is pure calling. How can I strengthen the calling independently and stably determine the target of the calling?"

"Since there are problems with Moon God's subordinates, let's separate this part."

Yu Hong quickly pulled out a red gem the size of a peanut, then grabbed a handful of black bone pieces, mixed them together, and placed them on the crescent in his left hand.

'If I can strengthen the summoning ability to be stable and reliable, then I can solve the dilemma of not being able to leave the base for a long time. The dragon lizard is too weak, and strengthening it is actually okay, but the higher it is, the longer it takes, and the ability that comes out may not be what I need, and it lacks targeting.'

Yu Hong thought for a moment, and covered the crescent on the back of his left hand with his right hand. His consciousness included a bunch of remnants, thinking about strengthening the crescent.

'Strengthen the Moon's Calling, direction: strengthen the calling ability and optimize the unstable Moon God system.' He did not give too many restrictions, but only proposed a general direction.

Soon, the black mark turned into a black line, flew out of the fingertips, and sank into the crescent.

"Do you want to strengthen the Call of the Moon?" The feedback from the black seal sounded immediately.

Similarly, a dark red countdown appeared synchronously on the back of the left hand where the crescent moon was located.

'17:51'.

"So short?" Yu Hong was stunned, but then he immediately reacted and guessed that it might be because the optimization difficulty of Moon Calling was extremely low, or there might be too many ready-made templates.

After all, just look at the Wuji Demon Palace formation that was strengthened by the black seal before. If there is a ready-made one, maybe it will be directly moved here without even changing the original author.

The certainty in my heart began to strengthen.

The countdown begins.

Yu Hong raised his hand and looked at the countdown with some curiosity.

'I hope it works. If I can get a good summoning ability, then with the increasing number of dragon lizards, the effect will become stronger and stronger!'

He closed his eyes and sensed the mark in his mind.

The burden of the formation mark became heavier and heavier, and the erosion of the wooden bridge became more and more serious.

"Tomorrow at the latest. If we don't solve the load on the wooden bridge and the black ship, the formation will definitely have problems and be damaged."

boom!
Suddenly, a shocking explosion sounded from outside.

The red flames suddenly lit up in the extremely cold mountain forest shrouded in black fog, illuminating the surrounding large areas of fog.

Yu Hong's expression instantly turned cold, and he appeared in front of the gate in a flash.

The door opened and the others rushed out of the cave and headed towards the high wall.

Dozens of meters are reached in the blink of an eye.

In a charred and smoking open space, the bodies of two dragon lizards were blown to pieces and their heads disappeared, as if they had been instantly cut off by some sharp blade.

They were deader than dead, and their bodies began to slowly dissolve, turning into some kind of sticky black liquid that evaporated and dissipated.

'The same way of death as Black Disaster'

Yu Hong squatted beside the two dragon lizards with an unsightly look on his face.

He looked around.

More than ten meters away, there was an obvious trace that had not been filled by the fog. It was a passage, a special fog passage created by some flying object.

Yu Hong stood up and walked around a few times, but found no more traces.

laugh!
He exerted force with his feet, and in a blink of an eye he rushed into the large group of black disasters not far away.

All kinds of bizarre giant insects, all kinds of looming strange shadows, and evil shadows, under the burning of internal energy, white light flashed, and they all dissipated and evaporated into black smoke.

Back at the camp, the black disaster outside began to retreat.

Yu Hong entered the inner courtyard and found that one of the dragon lizards was missing.

Coupled with the increasing erosion of the wooden bridge and the troubles on both sides, he became increasingly dissatisfied with the Eternal Life Association.

'Spread out and secretly search the surrounding area for any suspicious living people.'

He gave orders in his mind, asking the remaining dragon lizards to disperse and search the surrounding areas.

Although he knew that there was little hope of success with such a search, he still returned to the basement, scanned with radar, and searched carefully with the help of the dragon lizard.

After searching for more than half an hour, they found nothing except a pile of charred mechanical wreckage in an open space several hundred meters away.

"It is highly likely that the simple intelligent machine exploded directly after executing the instructions."

A few hours later.

Yu Hong told Zhang Kaijun about this on the communicator, and Zhang Kaijun immediately gave a guess.

"The disclosure of the Eternal Life Association's intelligence was not smooth. You should have heard what Brother Chen Yaofeng said, right?" Zhang Kaijun continued.

"My camp has been under attack these past few days, and the intensity is much higher than before." Yu Hong said, "The temperature is getting lower and lower. Is the Eternal Life Association not affected at all?"

"They were affected, but much less than us." Chen Yaofeng's voice sounded in the communicator, full of fatigue. "The three Aurora Cities are the last remaining strength of Donghe. We formed a joint action team and recently wiped out a temporary base of the Eternal Life Association. We found out from the base that they had started to prepare for the cold disaster a long time ago."

"This means that they probably knew about the cold disaster very early on!" Yu Hongdao.

"Yes. In addition, the support team we sent to Junzi disappeared on the way. I suspect they were the ones behind it. Now we don't know the specific strength and influence of the Eternal Life Association. How do they operate? Where are their armed forces stationed? Why are they not afraid of cold disasters or black disasters when they operate? We don't know any of this." Chen Yaofeng said.

"Is it Shu Cheng's team?" Yu Hong frowned. When Shu Cheng hinted that there was a problem with the goods he had transported, it was actually a disguised reminder. No matter what the other party's purpose was, he still had to acknowledge this favor.

"He didn't lead it himself. It was a caravan under the Shu family in Shucheng. The Shu family is developing very fast, and they have more than ten caravans under their command who are willing to risk their lives. They all make money by working hard." Chen Yaofeng explained.

"This is not a solution. We are too passive." Zhang Kaijun said, "If the temperature drops further, several people here will be frozen to death. So this matter must be resolved quickly, or temporarily ignored until a solution to the cold disaster is found."

"Yu Hong, you just said that you have been frequently attacked recently, right?" Chen Yaofeng asked.

"What do you want to say?" Yu Hong asked, and suddenly realized, "You mean, the Eternal Life Association is also worried that the temperature will continue to drop due to the cold disaster?"

"This is very possible. Otherwise, if the cold disaster has no impact on them, why don't they just wait until the temperature drops and our burden becomes greater before taking action?" Chen Yaofeng analyzed.

"That makes sense. It's precisely because they are also having a hard time dealing with it that they hope to resolve Yu Hong's issue as soon as possible. Yu Hong destroyed Xin Zhilei's layout and their plan to erode the Second Aurora City. Revenge is inevitable." Zhang Kaijun agreed.
