Chapter 22 Beast Eyes
Really got what I wanted.

After this, Yue Hanzhang seemed more motivated in the job of covering up the truth.

In this bloody urban fringe, death is not an isolated incident, but a normal state in this depressing and dark atmosphere.

Soon, after the initial surprise, Yue Hanzhang began to reap rewards one after another.

And it was precisely behind this achievement that Yue Hanzhang gained a deeper understanding of the use of mechanical brain.

Being able to use gilded thread to "activate" mechanical fragments and stimulate the "gilded seals" on them obviously means that the gilded thread formed by the integration of a person's essence, energy and spirit essentially has qualities that ordinary golden light of the sea of ​​Tao does not possess.

This may be a direction for Yue Hanzhang to further explore the wonders of the mechanical brain in the future.

In addition, Yue Hanzhang also clearly defined the distance range within which he and the gilded thread ball could resonate at the same frequency.

When the distance is about a hundred meters, the resonance between the breaths can cause the gilded thread ball to turn into a torrent and be pulled in.

But in this process, Yue Hanzhang needs to look at the ball of gilded thread with his own vision.

At least, one needs to pay attention to it during the few breaths when resonance occurs. When it has turned into a rushing torrent, Yue Hanzhang will no longer have any effect if he looks away or even closes his eyes.

However, once the distance exceeded a hundred meters, even if Yue Hanzhang saw the ball of gilded thread from afar while looking around, even if he kept staring at it intently, he would not have any resonance or attraction to the ball of gilded thread itself.

A distance of one hundred meters is not the limit of Yue Hanzhang’s vision, but the limit of his current mechanical brain.

Of course, as more mechanical fragments were activated and the golden light became brighter, Yue Hanzhang was not sure whether this distance range would expand.

However, the clarity of the current distance itself can provide great help to Yue Hanzhang. The distance of one hundred meters is enough for Yue Hanzhang to use more cover to make the process of moving the gilded thread ball more secretive.

Of course, Yue Hanzhang's observations were not limited to the mechanical mind and the gilded thread ball. During the long period from dusk to late night, he gradually figured out what kind of convoy was more likely to bring in the gilded thread ball.

There won’t be such a situation for a team that is too small. Their goals in the wild are often very cautious, which makes it easier for them to hide.

And a team that is too large will not do that either, as their abundant resources are enough to ensure that they can survive too many dangers. There may be frequent injuries, but it is unlikely that there will be deaths easily.

On the contrary, those medium-sized teams maintained extremely high casualty rates in the midst of their busy schedule.

This has nothing to do with replenishing the power in the mechanical brain.

But Yue Hanzhang thought, as a warrior, as a cultivator who was striving towards extraordinary Taoism.

Sooner or later he will have to leave the city and face the wilderness.

By then, today’s observations may become valuable experience for me to decide how to walk with others.

The time under the night passed quickly in Yue Hanzhang's happy and fulfilling mood.

Soon, with the deep starry sky hanging above the city, the alloy gate slowly closed, which also meant that Yue Hanzhang's work on the street in front of the East Second Gate was over.

"Xiao Yue, come with me, do you remember the nearest patrol station?

Starting from here, the cleaning will be done street by street. For streets where someone is responsible, you can just walk past them and ignore them.

If we continue cleaning until we reach the patrol station, we will have completed our work for the day."

Uncle Zhou's voice was heard again in the headset. The frequent labor in a short period of time might not be a big deal for Yue Hanzhang, but Uncle Zhou had obviously fallen into a state of fatigue.

He no longer chattered as much as he did at the beginning, but he never missed a single word of advice for Yue Hanzhang.

Yue Hanzhang nodded and followed Uncle Zhou obediently towards the patrol headquarters.

Maybe it was a coincidence, or maybe it was the characteristic of the suburban area structure, the direction they were heading towards was actually the direction of the funeral home. Thinking of this, Yue Hanzhang couldn't help but recall what happened just a few hours ago.

But along the way, all the cautious and careful thoughts in Yue Hanzhang's heart seemed like a battle of wits and courage against the air.

Nothing strange happened in this direction anymore. People were hurrying along the road, and there was a scattered team of cleaners from the Wind Patrol Department walking in the same direction.

Yue Hanzhang could even see the occasional pedestrian on the road carrying a stretcher, coming and going towards the funeral home.

Obviously, after the loud explosion, the funeral home was still operating in an orderly manner.

And it was during this process that Yue Hanzhang finally increased the number of activated metal fragments in the mechanical mind to nine overnight.

And Yue Hanzhang once again realized that those balls of gilded thread would appear at the moment a person died, and would continue to dissipate with the passage of time.

However, as long as the balls of gilded thread can still be entangled with each other and maintain a spherical shape, they can resonate with the mechanical brain in an instant.

But once the time is too long, the gilded thread ball can no longer maintain its spherical shape. No matter how close the gilded thread ball is to Yue Hanzhang, he can no longer be in sync with it.

Just like that, as he walked along, Yue Hanzhang soon passed the place where the funeral home was originally located.

Yue Hanzhang's keen perception made him realize that the extraordinary defense force that had surrounded the funeral home in the evening had left this now slightly busy building at some point.

"We don't need to clean up around the funeral home. They have hired cleaners themselves. Try to avoid coming here as much as possible."

Uncle Zhou's words interrupted Yue Hanzhang's aimless thoughts.

Soon, they bypassed the funeral home and headed deeper into the night.

The crowd became increasingly sparse, as if during this walk, they were moving from the bustling area of ​​the suburban ring road to the more secluded residential area.

The overlapping dilapidated reinforced concrete buildings gradually took on a maze-like appearance.

From a distance, the outline of the three-story building where the Patrol Wind Division was stationed could be seen.

"Uncle, you don't have to watch over me for the last few steps. I'll just walk a few steps forward, finish sweeping the street, and go back quickly."

"That's fine. It's dark here. You should be careful when walking."

After giving these instructions, Uncle Zhou picked up his cleaning tools, turned around and walked into a dark alley that no one had cleaned yet.

Nothing happened along the way, and Yue Hanzhang completely let go of his last worries about sudden changes.

Even at this moment, Yue Hanzhang reflected with some self-mockery that there were not so many unexpected things happening in this world, and being busy to the point of being almost numb was the norm in life.

Yue Hanzhang attributed his current mentality to his lack of adaptability to the dark side of the city.

Thinking of this, Yue Hanzhang felt more relaxed. He walked forward a distance, then turned around, walked into the dark alley, rinsed the mop, and washed the floor.

One, two, three...

Suddenly, Yue Hanzhang stopped what he was doing.

His originally relaxed body suddenly tensed up, and the next moment, Yue Hanzhang remained motionless and just looked back.

Deep in the dark alley where no light could be seen, suddenly, two bright yellow lights that changed from narrow to round appeared.

Those are the eyes of a beast!
