Surviving the Eternal Night: I'm a Monster Who Can Make Wishes

The defeated knight has moved far from the battlefield.

You fled for two hours and did not encounter the wood spirit tiger chasers who came to attack again.

The defeated knight dared not flee far, instead circling around the area to avoid other monsters.

"I never expected the wood spirit to be blind!"

"They only have hearing and a special sense of smell."

The Wood Demon Tiger Driver is very powerful.

Fortunately, the restrictions are significant.

Li Wu Hui saw that the monster character was temporarily safe.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He was focused on controlling the monster character.

It gives you a real sense of being there, and you can even clearly imagine the scenes the characters face.

This must be due to the effects of the monster tide event.

Or perhaps it's a prelude to the coming of eternal night.

Since the game of survival in eternal night is about to begin.

It's impossible to simply let players gain experience in verbal operations for survival.

That makes no sense at all.

Suddenly, Li Wu Hui had another thought.

When I first saw the wood demon driving the tiger, one of the wood demons had opened its eyes.

With bloodshot eyes, you could say that's being blind.

Li Wu Hui didn't believe it.

Furthermore, when approaching the Wood Sprite, no Domination Points were displayed that were required to enslave it.

It is very likely that these were the wood spirits that were sent out first.

It's not yet a true Wood Demon Tiger Driver monster.

Thinking of this, Li Wu Hui's heart sank.

The possibility was already very slim.

But there is another, even worse possibility.

"My monster enslavement skill is too low-level. Right now, I can only enslave blue-quality Mountain Tigers. Even a slightly higher-level one, like the blue-quality Wood Sprite Tiger Driver, can't be enslaved!"

That won't do!

Li Wu Hui has already put it into practice.

This proves just how useful the Monster Enslavement skill is.

He's even more useful than the Blue Defeated Knight who's decked out in blue gear!

"A simple promotion template may not be enough."

"A character's strength may also depend on mastering powerful skills or something similar."

"Just like when I killed Ironclad Nightwalker, I grasped the essence of slaying the weak."

"Oh right, I also have a silent bow, which can be used to wear down enemies from a distance. However, it's fine for fighting tigers on the mountain, but it feels a bit lacking when using a bow and arrow to fight a five-meter-tall wooden demon."

Li Wu Hui pondered for a moment.

Promotion templates, even though they are the most direct way to improve one's abilities.

He is now 86 survivor kills short.

If you kill more than five survivors, you will be hunted down by the Wood Demon Tiger Chaser.

With our current strength, we have no way to escape from the Wood Demon without temporarily enslaving the Mountain Tiger!

Current Controlled Points: 336 (Settlement for 11 Hours of Work by Back Mountain Tiger)

The points available are only enough to enslave one more blue mountain tiger for a short period.

If you're unlucky, you might encounter a purple wood spirit tiger driver.

I could die right here!

"No, the maximum number of survivor kills per day is four."

"We can't let the Wood Demon Tiger Drivers keep chasing us."

"Furthermore, I need to prioritize acquiring control points."

"Hmm, perhaps we could also study the second secret incantation ritual of the Monster Dominator's legacy."

Li Wu Hui stroked his chin.

Establish rules for desire: use the strictest rules to forge the monster's chaotic desires into executable "commands".

While gaining dominance points, satisfy the monster's desires.

The Wood Sprite's desire is to eat monsters that kill more than five survivors in a short period of time to become stronger.

The tiger on the mountain has ominous desires, and it cannot speak.

What are the desires of defeated and routed soldiers?

Li Wu Hui pondered.

I thought about the promotion requirements of the defeated and routed soldiers.

Five survivor heads, along with weapons or armor.

"Killing survivors must be the urge of defeated and routed soldiers!"

"Then let's give it a try."

Goooo!

Li Wuhui just mustered his spirits.

After staying up all night, my stomach started cramping, and I was starving.

[8:35, Thursday, April 26]

"It's already 8:30."

"Let's eat rice first!"

Li Wu Hui got out of bed.

After quickly washing up, I went downstairs.

We arrived at a noodle shop we often eat at.

Li Wu Hui ordered a bowl of beef noodles, two grilled sausages, a braised egg, and a large bottle of beverage.

I had just sat down.

I could hear two young men next door playing videos loudly on their phones.

"Hello everyone, I'm your host, Wandering Little Wai."

"After 35 days, the Eternal Night Survival game has finally increased its difficulty!"

"Some people might be wondering, the games used to be quite difficult, right? Don't worry, let me explain in detail."

"The difficulty of the game in the past lay in the difficulty of obtaining resources. Only half of the day could be spent exploring the outside world to find resources and treasure chests. The gameplay was similar to wilderness survival games like Famine."

"But just last night at 10 PM, survivors in the Daxi Forest area encountered the first-ever monster wave in the game's history!"

"Almost all the players were entrusted to their own safe houses and engaged in a fierce battle to defend them, displaying the highest level of skill they had ever played in the game!"

"Since the monster horde mainly consists of defeated and routed soldiers—monsters that run away after losing 30% of their health and drop no loot—and their numbers are enormous, most players don't last more than half an hour before being killed in the safe house!"

"Those who can last an hour can be considered elites, those who can last two hours are extremely rare, and those who can last three hours are truly exceptional!"

"I am not very talented. My survivor code name is Wandering Little Wai. I survived for two and a half hours, which can be considered as being at the level of a semi-elite."

"This isn't just the streamer bragging; it's an official reward! Look, 20 units of supplies, and even a gray weapon!"

"Therefore, I shamelessly issue a challenge to see if the viewers can surpass my holding time after using my tutorial strategy."

"Those who can match me will receive a cash bonus, and those who can beat me will receive an exquisite gift box."

"This challenge is called 'Enduring Twelve Hours'!"

They just had to stay in the safe house for a little longer.

You will receive a generous reward.

Survivor players are having a blast!

Li Wu Hui felt slightly unbalanced.

After watching the video, the two young men let out a sneer.

"See, I told you it was a challenge designed to trick people into interacting!"

"How could that be? I remember Little Wai the Homeless said he doesn't take commercial orders!"

"Not taking commercial orders lately doesn't mean we don't want to gain followers!"

"That's true, but there are cash rewards after just two and a half hours! And he said the strategy command set has already been released, so the game's input commands are basically fully automated. We might not be any worse than the streamers!"

"Hiss! I admit you have a point. Let's get started!"

"Absolutely..."

The two young men argued until their faces turned red.

They made up in the blink of an eye.

Li Wu Hui also found it interesting.

There are live streamers and events.

Is the survival game set in the eternal night going to become popular again?

Hey!

His noodles arrived.

Li Wu Hui refocused his attention.

Focus on eating your noodles.

I haven't slept all night and I'm really starving.

The wind whips up the remaining clouds!

Before long, only a little bit of noodle soup remained in the bowl.

Li Wu Hui carried a half-empty bottle of beverage, and then bought some bread, drinks, and instant noodles at the supermarket before returning to his rented room.

I reopened the game "Eternal Night Survival".
