Desperate Night

Yu Hong picked up the black lizard with one hand. No matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like it was newly synthesized in a short period of time.

The edge of the lizard's abdomen even had skin mosses brought from somewhere. There were still some white sand on the claws of its limbs.

He put the black lizard in his hand and weighed it. It was very light.

'How to control this thing? '

After thinking about it, Yu Hong suddenly thought of the pyroxene grass. Inspired by the regeneration of the pyroxene grass, he immediately mobilized the internal energy in his body, quickly sensed the mark of the black lizard, and slowly injected the internal energy into the mark.

The mark was like another limb besides his hands for him, which could be sensed at any time.

This feeling was very strange. Because the two marks were not connected to Yu Hong, they were like two balls floating in the air nearby, blurry and hazy. When they were not needed, their presence would be greatly reduced. When they were needed, they would quickly and automatically strengthen their presence.

Hiss.

Soon a stream of internal energy was input.

The second mark trembled slightly, as if it had a reaction.

At the same time, the black lizard in Yu Hong's hand also trembled slightly, crawled forward a few steps, and squeezed out a white walnut-sized lizard egg from behind his buttocks.

"." Yu Hong was speechless and gently pinched the lizard egg with his hand.

The surface of the egg was lime white, and it naturally had black patterns similar to vines.

'Black lizard egg: absorb red value radiation to hatch, the time is three days. It takes a week for the black lizard to grow from birth to adulthood. '

At this time, the second mark naturally conveyed relevant information.

But this extremely complete information, as well as the inexplicable details of the black lizard, made a certain guess in Yu Hong's mind clearer.

He pinched the black lizard egg and gently put it in the plastic box.

'This thing, could it be that the black mark directly moved it from somewhere? '

To be honest, he was a little suspicious when he strengthened the jerky to get the protein bar last time. Now there is another plague insect lizard, and it is deliberately marked as the scientific name.

'Could it be that the black mark sometimes synthesizes and strengthens itself, and sometimes directly moves and copies it from outside? ’

Yu Hong guessed in his heart, but there was insufficient evidence for the time being and he could not verify it.

He focused his sight on the black lizard again.

‘Now, it’s time to try the specific abilities of the black lizard. ’

He strengthened the black lizard not to keep it as a pet for fun.

A moment later.

The cave gate opened.

In the dark night, countless black insects flowed densely outside the wall like a tide.

They were like a black ocean, flowing endlessly. They were also like flowing sand, rubbing against each other and making strange noises.

All the pyroxene grass in the yard shone with a bright white light, and with the lighting, all the black insects close to the wall were evaporated.

The three cabins in the yard had their doors and windows closed, and there was no movement.

Only the wind blew the hanging electric lights, shaking and creaking.

Shadows accompanied by the shaking of the lights.

Yu Hong, wearing a strengthened gray lizard suit, slowly walked out of the cave gate, went down the steps, crossed the yard, and approached the wall step by step.

He is now 1.8 meters tall, and when he puts on a suit, he can reach more than 2 meters in total. He is very big and oppressive when walking.

When he walked past Zhou Xueguang's wooden house, a faint sound came from the house.

"It's me, Lao Zhou. You continue to sleep, I have something to deal with." Yu Hong spoke first.

There was a pause in the wooden house, and then there was no sound.

Yu Hong walked through the wooden house and came to the wall of the courtyard.

Looking at the endless tide of black insects outside, he took a deep breath and spread his right hand.

In the palm of his hand, the strange-shaped black lizard quietly flapped its wings a few times, as if adapting to the environment.

Soon, half a minute later, the black lizard seemed to wake up from the strong red radiation outside.

It slowly moved its body in Yu Hong's palm, shook its head, twisted its legs, and shook its tail.

Then.

Puff.

The black lizard jumped lightly on the wall of the courtyard, facing the tide of black insects, and opened its mouth.

A reddish tongue stretched out like lightning, stuck to a black bug accurately, and retracted into the mouth to swallow it.

The tongue was so fast that Yu Hong couldn't even see it clearly.

He stepped back, looked at the black lizard standing on the courtyard wall, thought for a while, and closed his eyes.

Suddenly, a subtle feeling came from the second mark.

He seemed to be able to vaguely feel the situation, state, and whether the black lizard was safe.

Soon, the black lizard moved, jumped into the courtyard wall, and hid in the pyroxene grass without moving.

There were no black bugs around the black lizard, and Yu Hong felt much calmer.

If the state of encountering black bugs a while ago was a burning flame, then now the flame is extinguished, and the black lizard feels to Yu Hong like a moving wood stick.

The two feelings before and after are very clear.

After the black lizard stopped moving, it soon began to slowly absorb the surrounding red value.

'Are there any iconic mark states for encountering black disasters and lurking?' Yu Hong carefully experienced it.

His mind moved.

The black lizard stood up from the bushes and climbed up the wall.

After seeing the large tide of black insects outside, the state of the black lizard changed immediately in Yu Hong's mind.

From a wooden stick to a small flame.

The difference between the two states is very clear.

This made it easy for Yu Hong to distinguish them and remember them firmly in his mind.

The test of the black lizard lasted for more than half an hour. Yu Hong quickly mastered the delicate method of controlling it and determined the various abilities of the black lizard.

Then, he left the little thing where it was and waited for dawn to let it go out.

The biggest use of this thing is not to purify a territory like the pyroxene grass, but to patrol the surroundings and determine the approximate dangerous types of black disasters.

After testing, Yu Hong discovered that the black lizard would activate different states when encountering different black disasters.

Encountering black bugs is a small flame.

Encountering a larger Dapi is a medium flame.

As for more situations, we have not been able to detect them for the time being because we have not encountered any objects.

However, when the black lizard stops resting, it will absorb the surrounding red radiation. This absorption may seem slow and useless, but in fact, the black lizard itself will rest and eat in this state, and greatly conceal itself.

After the test, Yu Hong returned to the cave, took off his suit and rested.

‘It’s a bit weak. ’ As he lay in his sleeping bag, there was still some disappointment on his face.

‘Compared to the pyroxene grass, the black lizard’s uses are obviously much smaller. It can only patrol the edges and act as a temporary micro-radiation purifier. ’

‘But it may be that the quantity is too small, and perhaps the situation will change when the quantity increases. ’ He comforted himself in his heart.

With this in mind, Yu Hong took a rest and did not fall asleep. Instead, he stood up again, took out a pen and paper, and quickly took out the records of basic kick moves that everyone had summarized before.

Then he took out the book of basic survival kicks that he had strengthened before and put them together with this record.

He pressed one hand on the paper.

‘Strengthen leg skills, direction: enhance movement speed, flexibility of moves, and adaptability to various environments. ’

His previous basic leg skills were strong, but in many cases it was inconvenient to apply. Many times he needed to use other weapons to assist with coordination.

So this enhancement can be regarded as a completion.

‘Do you want to strengthen your leg skills? ’ The cold mechanical sound of the black seal still sounded.

The countdown appeared on the paper: 5:12.

'yes! ’ Yu Hong was a little surprised that it took so long to integrate some basic moves. However, he calculated that he could just sleep until dawn, so he didn’t bother to delve into it immediately and definitely responded to the black seal.

Then he turned sideways, curled up and fell asleep slowly.

Tomorrow I will make radiation grenades for Lao Li and send him on his way. We still need to continue to test the effect of Black Lizard on Shadow. There are still many things to do.

Early morning.

Baihe City.

Streets that were once populated by people now appear deserted and lifeless.

Vehicles collided with each other, some emitting white smoke, some burning with fire, and some crashed into street shops and never moved again.

In the building where people were previously hidden, the walls were covered with spurts of blood, and the torn and rotten corpses were being pecked by multi-eyed birds.

In the corridors, beside the broken doors and windows, stiff and strange figures flashed from time to time. Without moving their legs, their figures could appear here and on the other side.

Underground in the urban area, within a huge network of passages.

The harsh sounds of gunfire and explosions are still heard incessantly.

Occasionally, there were desperate screams and cries from humans, but these sounds soon stopped abruptly and disappeared completely.

In the dark passage, the nuclear motor was still running, supporting dim lights at regular intervals to illuminate the surroundings.

Bloodstains can be seen everywhere on the ground of the passages, but there are no traces of the bodies. There was only a set of empty clothes arranged in human form.

Buzz!

Suddenly, a black enclosed military vehicle quickly rushed out of one of the main passages.

The entire military vehicle is covered with a skin similar to a pyroxene blanket, and there are also talisman patterns on the windows, which are clearly visible.

Although it affects the vision somewhat, this is the safest way to hide at this moment.

In the car, sitting in the driver's seat, was a mixed-race girl with a pale face and frightened eyes.

The girl has a pretty appearance, with a bit of exotic charm, and is also very young in age. If she were dressed up a little in peacetime, she would be no worse than many female stars on the screen.

But at this moment, having a good face is of no use to whether he can survive.

Ou Li was breathing rapidly and was driving with all his concentration, hurriedly avoiding obstacles that suddenly appeared in front of him from time to time.

"Hold on! Captain Xue! As long as we rush out, stay away from the ground city, and enter the sub-base, we can find the medicine!" An anxious male voice came from the car behind.

At this time, Little Stutter, Xue Ningning, and Chen Qiaosheng were all in the car, as well as Fang Shijun and Chen Xinji who had acted with them last time.

The two people did not believe in Lin Yiyi before, but were later rescued by him. Their attitudes towards Lin Yiyi changed significantly, and they were now in the car together.

To be precise, at the critical moment, it was these two people who drove this car and rescued the little stuttering people in the dormitory who were still confused and escaped into the underground passage.

"So what if we go to the sub-base? Without a breeding production line, food will be a big problem. There are so many black plagues, multi-eyed birds, whisperers, and shadows outside, and the sea is also completely blocked. That big guy can't even Unmatched." Chen Qiaosheng looked at Fang Shijun, who was still helping Xue Ningning treat his wounds, with a dejected expression.

"One step at a time!" Fang Shijun said sternly, "You don't even want to live, so you expect others to drag you along?"

She glanced around and saw that except for Lin Yiyi, everyone else had a look of gloom and despair on their faces.

"There was an attack on the port before and too many people died in the city. However, many people fled in cars and scattered. These people attracted many black disasters to disperse and pursue them. Although it is a bit cruel, the gap that appeared at this time is the best way for us to escape. opportunity."

"Where is the point? I don't think it's a good idea to go to the deputy base." Chen Xinji, the second male member of the team, answered at this time.
