Desperate Night.

Chapter 252 Secret Four

"Let's think about how to deal with Argyris."

Yu Hong silently shifted his target.

After thinking about it, he felt that the current dragon lizard nest was not very practical. Although the miscellaneous dragon lizards had been working diligently to maintain the safety of the camp, their individual strength was not enough and their numbers were not enough.

'Either improve the quality of individual cells, or increase the breeding speed and increase the total number.'

"There is also the Moon Calling, oh no, it's the Infinite Sky River Technique. As long as I can summon a powerful enough creature, maybe I can deal with Agris."

Thinking of this, Yu Hong stood up again, went to the basement first, and took out some medicines that could strengthen bones and replenish blood from the boxes of medicinal materials he had exchanged before.

Then put your hand on it.

'Strong healing medicine, direction: replenishing blood and helping bones heal.'

Black lines flowed out, and soon a new countdown appeared on the surface of the medicinal material.

'2:11'.

Yu Hong did not add any additional requirements. He just used these drugs as the basis and gave the simplest requirements of extracting the effective medicinal properties and eliminating the ineffective parts and those with side effects.

The requirements are low, there is no enhancement to the medicinal properties, and the time given by the black seal is also quite cost-effective.

After confirming that it could be strengthened, Yu Hong nodded with satisfaction.

"Sure enough, this method of use is possible. Just use the black seal as a fool-proof all-purpose alchemy furnace."

'As long as the requirements are low enough, the strengthening time can be controlled to an acceptable level.'

After confirming the strengthening, he got up and took a shower.

Wait until you change your clothes and come back.

Click.

Suddenly, there was a slight explosion outside, as if something exploded.

Yu Hong frowned, put on the enhanced white bear suit, and opened the door.

call!
As soon as I opened the door, an extremely cold snowstorm rushed in from outside.

Di di di
The temperature alarm of the detector sounded, and the temperature displayed in the room dropped from a dozen degrees to below zero in an instant. In a blink of an eye, it reached minus thirty or so degrees, and was still dropping.

Yu Hong walked out and closed the door.

Outside the gate, as well as the inner and outer courtyards, everything had turned white again like ice and snow.

He glanced at the detector on his collar.

Temperature display: -79 degrees.

'.I'm afraid Lao Zhou won't be able to come back'

This temperature is close to the boiling point of carbon dioxide in the air.

If the temperature drops any lower, carbon dioxide will condense into solids, and the little oxygen conversion function will be completely cut off. The little sunlight we get every day will be useless.

Yu Hong sighed and began to check around the yard.

He soon discovered that the cooling hot water pipe connecting the cave to the outside had frozen and exploded.

Too low a temperature will cause most materials to become brittle.

As the temperature of the hot water in the water pipe dissipates, it begins to condense into ice, and its volume changes.
The combination of the two has allowed the pipeline to withstand freezing and cracking only until now. Yu Hong believes that this is all thanks to the black seal strengthening project.

Although he discovered the cause, he couldn't fix it and could only wait until the black seal was strengthened before repairing it.

At this time, the black disaster outside slowly dissipated and entered a period of easing again.

Yu Hong glanced at the black fog outside.

It was a bit strange that the black disaster retreated in such a short time this time, but retreating early was a good thing, and he was too lazy to guess.

After returning to the cave, he rested for a while and began to practice water condensation skills.

Two hours passed in a flash.

Soon, the medicinal herbs on the table flashed slightly, blurred, and turned into a dark red pill emitting a soft luster.

There was a palm-sized instruction manual underneath, which Yu Hong picked up and scanned.

'Gu Sui Bu Yuan Dan: One of the essential medicines for Wuji Palace disciples to take when recovering from broken bones. After taking it, it can quickly increase the speed of bone healing. One pill a day can shorten the natural healing cycle by two-thirds.'

It was Wuji Palace again. Yu Hong picked up the pill speechlessly, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it.

The taste is similar to chocolate chips, but with sugar added for flavoring.

After taking the medicine, within five minutes, he felt numbness and itching in the injured parts of his body. He then quickly used black ink to repair the water pipe for more than ten minutes.

After confirming that there was no problem with the water pipe, Yu Hong came to the separate small cave where the dragon lizard's nest was located.

'The number of dragon lizards is increasing too slowly. We need to strengthen this aspect. Since we can't reduce the pressure on the black ships, we can reduce the pressure on the formation from other aspects. The more dragon lizards there are, the stronger their combat power against the black disaster will be, and the less black disasters the formation will need to deal with.'

He felt that it was impossible to deal with Agris in a short period of time, so delaying and extending the time was necessary.

Standing in front of the underground dragon lizard's nest that is more than one person tall.

The nest is a black mass of flesh with a dark red crack in the middle, with a faint glow of fire inside.

Yu Hong thought for a moment, then reached out and pressed his hand on the surface of the nest. "Strengthen the nest of the Earth Pond Dragon Lizard. Direction: accelerate breeding."

The black line flashed and sank into the nest.

Soon, Black Seal's voice sounded, and a countdown appeared: '19:5 am on the 9th'.

"."Yu Hong was speechless. After such a long time, the camp was probably abandoned.

"Change your thinking. Since the nest reproduction rate is too slow, can I add another nest, or two, or three?"

'What are the limits of the lair?'

Yu Hong closed his eyes and sensed the mark in his mind.

The second mark is the dragon lizard's nest. The entire nest is a huge white light spot. This is the largest light spot formed by the fusion of the nine dragon lizards.

'The original dragon lizard was able to leave a light spot in my mark, and then I used nine light spots to merge and form a nest. But now the dragon lizard has no light spots at all. So if I want to add another nest, do I have to repeat the previous process?'

Yu Hong pondered in his heart.

He originally synthesized the dragon lizard by strengthening it with the black seal. So he had direct control over it first-hand, which is why there were light spots.

"Then, can we directly use the existing dragon lizards to merge the nest?"

With a thought, he controlled the nest and ordered it to summon the nine-headed dragon lizard.

Then, he gave an indirect order through the nest to allow the nine-headed dragon lizard to merge on its own.

hiss.
All of a sudden, in the cave, the nine-headed dragon lizards huddled together like a ball, and soon their flesh and blood began to melt and stick together, gradually forming a familiar black ball of flesh.

The middle area of ​​the meat ball was torn apart, leaving a dark red crack with a faint flicker of fire inside.

It turned out to be another earth dragon's nest!
"Is it really possible?!" Yu Hong's eyes lit up. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have not tapped into the true potential of the earth dragons.

Soon, about a few minutes passed.

The new nest was formed, and a dragon lizard egg popped out from below.

The eggshell cracked, and a small dragon lizard covered in slime crawled out.

But what made Yu Hong feel something was wrong was that this nest was completely out of his control. He could not give orders to it and could only convey orders from the original nest.

This back and forth process takes a long time, and each command takes more than ten seconds to complete, which is far less smooth than the previous dragon lizard's easy control.

"If each nine-headed dragon lizard can merge into a nest, it can quickly form a large number of dragon lizards. The delay of the command is acceptable. I said, how could a big force like the Wuji Demon Palace choose such an ordinary creature as a Taoist soldier? It turns out that I didn't find the right use before."

Yu Hong was in a good mood, and the pain from his recent injury seemed to have eased a lot.

Next, the two nests bred together, and could breed two dragon lizards every five days, which was much faster than before.

After optimizing the dragon lizard's breeding method, Yu Hong simply used the black seal to strengthen the large number of radiation bombs he had made before.

Although the radiation bomb is a disposable item, as long as we can withstand the attacks during this period, when the number of dragon lizards increases and we form a numerical suppression, we will be able to completely stabilize the camp and ensure the safety of the surrounding area.

Flicka and the East River Border Fort.

Inside the meeting hall of the Eternal Life Association, members in black robes appeared one after another.

"The topic of today's regular meeting is how to correct the indirect guidance route of the Snow Demon." Responsible for the order of the meeting were the president's assistants sitting on the side of the main seat, two masked women in black robes.

"The routes to guide the snow demons to Flicka, Donghe, Willans, and the Free Alliance have been planned. On average, two snow demons will be guided to each Aurora City."

"The specific route requires you to dispatch personnel to maintain accuracy."

The two women reported the progress one sentence at a time.

"The biggest problem with the snow demons is that they are extremely easy to spread and difficult to control. The cost of maintaining the routes is too high. Doesn't the association have the resources to compensate?" A short old woman spoke slowly.

"No compensation." The president replied, "The Snow Demon is our test of the Aurora City. It is used to determine which Aurora City can truly pose a threat to the Cold Disaster and can truly carry our future destined new city plan."

He paused, then continued.

"This is a test of future potential. We can barely guide the black disaster, but even we must face the cold disaster together like ordinary people. If you still can't change your mindset, you are bound to suffer a great loss in the future."

"The key is that once the snow demon is enraged, it will be uncontrollable and unpredictable. What we want is to create a new world, a new human city that belongs only to us. If everyone dies, what is the meaning of the so-called new city?" A burly man stepped forward and said.

"This is the price that must be paid," the president said calmly. "Everything requires a price. The bigger the goal, the greater the price."

He tilted his head slightly and looked to the right, at a burly man in black robes.

"Number 17, how are you preparing?"

"Almost. The preliminary work for guiding the Snow Demon has been completed. However, two of my subordinates from the executive department disappeared mysteriously. I suspect that the Black Wind Camp has discovered something. So we have to start early." No. 17 replied.

"After all, he is the only internal energy practitioner in the world. Just like the one with multiple enhancements in the Free Alliance, he is a unique case in the world. It is normal that he has some abilities that we cannot predict." The president nodded.

"So, shall I start?" asked No. 17.

"Okay, we'll officially start it tomorrow and see how much damage internal energy can do to the snow demon." The president nodded.

"I understand. It will take about seven days to guide the Snow Demon from its current location. Please bear witness." No. 17 said in a low voice.

"Snow Demon. If we cannot deal with the cold disaster, we will also face the final desperate situation. For the future of the new city, for the future of the evolution of all mankind, and for your ultimate wish before coming here to survive the cold disaster and find the final star." The president said in a deep voice, "Don't be stingy with resources, and find a more effective system to fight the cold disaster as soon as possible."

He clenched his cane lightly and leaned forward.

“We don’t have much time left.”
