Desperate Night

The function of the radio is to receive external signals. If it can also be strengthened, maybe there will be other gains.

Looking at the numbers on it.

‘Five hours, just about to be completed by dawn, you can try it. ’

So far, Yu Hong has not found any side effects of the black seal strengthening, and its consumption is at most the loss of mental energy.

At this time, the axe is estimated to have been strengthened, and he must have responded to the strengthening inquiry in his ear.

In an instant, the radio in his hand blurred, and then quickly became clear, and the number appeared on the surface: 5:11.

Seeing that the countdown had begun, Yu Hong put it aside, sat alone on the bed, holding a candle, exhaling a long breath, and his heart became more and more lonely and fearful.

This fear not only comes from the strange shadows and monsters that may appear around at any time. It also comes from the strange corpse lying on the ground in the wild.

He just sat there, motionless, with his thoughts surging in his heart.

It was not until dawn that it eased a little.

After drinking some water, Yu Hong left the house. There was not much sunlight outside, and the sky was overcast. It was obvious that it was going to rain today.

The air was humid, and he walked on the ground, and his ankles were cold.

As he walked, he suddenly paused and turned his head to look at a room.

In the darkness there, a white shadow was faintly visible.

He took a deep breath, quickly quickened his pace with the radio, and rushed all the way to the cave safe house.

More than ten minutes later.

The safe house arrived.

Bang.

The reinforced wooden door was closed and locked.

Yu Hong relaxed a little and sat down on the ground beside the quilt.

Picking up the radio in his hand, he looked carefully and found that the numbers on it were gone.

And the whole machine had quietly become brand new.

The broken parts before were also repaired.

‘Could it be that my strengthening ability, in addition to strengthening items, can also repair broken things? ’

Yu Hong’s heart moved.

He turned the radio over, opened the battery box, and found that there were two blue No. 5 batteries inside.

He suppressed his surprise, installed the battery cover, and turned on the switch.

Snap.

A sound came from the radio.

Hiss

Then, a familiar hissing sound came.

‘It really works! ? ’ Yu Hong was surprised.

He took the radio in his hand and looked it over again. He was sure that there was no problem at all, so he picked it up and put it to his ear.

The sound was quite clear and there was no thorns, which made him even more satisfied.

‘Tune in the radio station in this place and try it.’

After he came to Baiqiu Village, he had been running around, busy adapting to the environment and dealing with dangers all day long.

Now the cave safe house has finally taken shape.

At least he can hide here and isolate himself from the ghosts and monsters and bugs, and he felt much more relaxed.

Feeling a little relieved, Yu Hong turned the big round button on the front of the radio to adjust the frequency band.

As the round button slowly turned, a series of hissing sounds kept rising and falling.

Soon, with a swish, a very quiet frequency band flashed by.

Yu Hong quickly returned to the previous position, and suddenly, with fine-tuning, a sad music floated out from the radio.

The music seemed to be a funeral music, slow and long, with a low tune, which made people feel heavy unconsciously.

Before Yu Hong could guess what program it was, a human voice came from the radio again.

"Again, I remind everyone that due to the lack of batteries, please turn on the radio at this time every day, adjust the band, and remove the batteries after listening to save power."

A very magnetic male voice came from the radio.

"This is the National Special Disaster Response Management Bureau. I will provide specific disaster information in various places every day, and provide the actual changes of various dangers in the black disaster. At the same time, I will also provide some predictions and research on the black disaster by the Silver Tower. I hope everyone will pay attention to it."

Hearing this, Yu Hong's face condensed, knowing that he had found the wrong station, and immediately put the radio aside on the ground and listened quietly.

He has been active near Baiqiu Village. Due to physical problems, he can't go to a larger place farther away for the time being.

Moreover, even in large places, it is impossible to get the latest national research results.

So the content heard on this radio is extremely precious to him.

At this time, just listen to the radio continue to talk.

"According to statistics from the Ministry of National Security, at this stage, there are 759 areas where black disasters are still occurring and spreading in our country. Each area is dominated by a large number of blood ticks, occasionally interspersed with ghost shadows."

"According to the research of the Silver Tower, the overall intensity of the black disaster is showing an upward curve over time.

The intensity of the ghost shadow is also slowly increasing. I hope that urban areas in various places will prepare response plans."

"The high tide period is coming. During this period, all black disasters will show a significant increase in damage. Among them, the light resistance of blood ticks is slowly increasing. This feature makes it require a lot more energy consumption for lighting tools."

Yu Hong listened carefully. He didn't understand a lot of what the announcer said.

In particular, the overall black disaster showed an upward trend in intensity, which made him feel a sense of crisis again.

He now only has a few enhanced pyroxenes left, and the rest are either inlaid or placed in dark places in various parts of the cave to become a guarantee for the hidden safe house.

And if this amount of enhanced pyroxene encounters a ghost during the high tide period, even if there are only one or two per day, he can't bear it.

Hearing this, he immediately decided to strengthen the pyroxene. Just as he picked up a piece and was about to start, he heard a thunderous roar outside.

Then the wind whistled and whistled.

First, a few scattered raindrops hit the wooden door, making a sound. Then the raindrops became more and more, and denser and denser.

In the sound of rustling.

Soon, in just a dozen seconds, heavy rain came.

Dense raindrops hit the door, making dense and crisp sounds.

Yu Hong reacted immediately, found a newly made wooden barrel from the corner, opened the door and went out, and put it on the edge of the door.

This is used to collect rainwater.

Rainwater is at least much cleaner than stinky water.

Closing the door, Yu Hong listened to the thunder and heavy rain outside.

Then he looked at the dry and quiet cave, empty.

A sense of peace and stability suddenly came in his heart.

Back to the dirty and smelly quilt, he sat on it and exhaled a long breath.

Although it smells, it is safe.

In this situation, there is not enough water to drink, how dare I take a bath.

The water needed for bathing is

Suddenly, Yu Hong's heart moved, and he wanted to go out and take a bath with rainwater, but he was worried about getting sick, catching a cold, and having a fever. At this time, there was no medicine to take. What if he got pneumonia

Immediately, he suppressed the thought, sat quietly in the cave, and looked at the gray sky outside the window.

The radio was still playing.

".Because the number of ghosts in various places is showing a blowout trend, the Response Management Bureau will dispatch patrol teams to go to various places for routine patrols and collect detailed data on ghosts from now on."

After just a few words, the announcer's voice suddenly stopped and his breathing became rapid.

"Emergency news: A vicious ghost incident occurred in Hope City, No. 43, Wuliangshan, which has caused hundreds of casualties. Because this kind of ghost has a strong transmission ability, all external contacts of Hope City are now suspended, and all normal in and out transportation with it are cut off."

"Please note that the location of the vicious ghost incident is Hope City, No. 43, Wuliangshan."

The announcer repeated the address again and again, his voice solemn and nervous.

Yu Hong was confused when he heard it.

‘That’s it?’ He was puzzled. No rescue measures, just quarantine? Not even supplies were allowed to be delivered?

But no matter how long he waited, the announcer still stopped talking about the news just now, and continued to talk about the latest official exploration results, the research data report of an organization called Silver Tower, etc.

No more mention of the hope city in danger.

Not a word.

Yu Hong squatted beside the radio and listened for more than ten minutes, but still no signs.

Finally, he seemed to understand.

The authorities may have no other way to deal with the ghost shadow and the black disaster except to block it and wait for its intensity to pass.

Standing up, he sighed, walked to the door and looked out.

The side area of ​​the viewing window was opened with a bang, and a square and spacious window appeared on the door.

There was a layer of solid glass on the other side of the window, and you could see the rain that kept washing down outside.

Through the rain, the mountains and forests outside seemed to be distorted and blurred.

Boom.

Another thunder came.

Yu Hong suddenly thought of Xiao Jieba, wondering how she is now.

She must have been caught in the rain on the way.

I hope she is okay.

In this kind of weather, he can't go out to look for someone rashly. Besides, Xiao Jieba's physical fitness is much better than his. Even if he finds someone, he will only be a burden.

Thinking of this, Yu Hong sat down on the ground and relaxed his body.

While he was safe and quiet at this time, he turned off the radio and picked up the pyroxite to continue strengthening.

The most troublesome things now are two points, the number of candles may not be enough, and the number of strengthening pyroxite is insufficient.

Tomorrow is the last day, which is the deadline for the arrival of the high tide period. They can go out together and change some candles.

As for the pyroxite, they can only strengthen it while letting Xiao Jieba rush to paint.

'If it is true as the radio said, the black disaster is getting stronger as a whole, then... How can ordinary people with poor resources in the wild survive in the future? ' Yu Hong suddenly felt a faint fear in his heart.

He is a person who is easily frightened, timid and afraid of things, but because of this, he always thinks that problems are extremely complicated and dangerous.

This is an extremely abnormal concept.

However, in this environment, such characteristics seem to play a good role.

‘If there is no one outside, I can’t survive without food even if I have the black seal enhancement.

So I have to solve the food problem by myself. Be self-sufficient. ’

Safety is now basically guaranteed, and Yu Hong has set his sights on food.

‘There is also a water filtration device, which needs to be made. These are not things I can make by myself. I have to think about it carefully. ’

Boom.

Heavy rain poured in the forest, and the dense rain almost formed fog, covering the forest and obscuring the vision.

It should have been bright in the morning, but it was dark under the heavy rain.

The wide forest was like a piece of bread covered with green mold.

At the edge, there were two figures, like two sesame seeds, rushing towards Baiqiu Village.

The two wore black raincoats and held hiking sticks, running quickly with familiar steps.

"Hurry, hurry! It's getting dark, those ghosts will come out soon!" The figure behind kept panting and urging.

"I know. I'll be there soon." The figure in front was petite and stammered. It was the little stuttering Yiyi who had just returned from outside.

Soon, the two rushed all the way to the bottom of the white hill in the village, stepped into the gravel road, and rushed all the way.

Bang.

When they arrived at the door of the house, the little stuttering took out the key to open the door, and prepared the pyroxene in one hand, ready to sprinkle at any time.

Fortunately, there were no accidents.

The two entered the house smoothly without any danger.

At the moment when the two entered the house, there was a flash of lightning on the gravel road outside, illuminating a pale white.

The moment the light was bright, it illuminated the blurry figures standing on the gravel road.

Soon, the lightning disappeared, and the figures disappeared with it. Like a bubble.
