Desperate Night

A few kilometers away from the Black Wind Camp.

Pyroxene mining area.

In the dim sky, the mines are like eyes opened on the mountain wall, unblinking, dark and deep.

In the forest at the entrance of the mining area, a stiff man is quietly walking out.

The man is wearing a ragged gray windbreaker, a white round hat, a gray mask covering most of his face, and black sunglasses.

He is about 1.8 meters tall, and the brown leather boots on his feet are full of holes and white mold.

Click.

Click.

The man walked to the front of the mine, paused for a while, and then he took out something from his pocket with his right hand stiffly, pinched it in his palm,

Slowly, he stepped forward, slowly walked into one of the mines, and disappeared.

Not long after, the man walked out of the mine again, his figure sank into the mist, and soon disappeared.

Behind him, the gray mist in the air quickly poured into the mine, and the pyroxene ore that was originally exposed in the cave was rapidly changing from white to black.

Not only that, all the negative radiation in the entire mining area began to weaken rapidly at this moment.

Like a flower that is about to wither.

Buzz.

The car slowly drove into the outer yard, and Lao Zhou quickly stepped forward to close the fence door again and bolt it.

Click.

The car door opened, and Yu Hong got out from inside and patted the wrinkled leather suit.

"Everyone be careful these days, pay attention to the movement outside, and don't go out. There is water and electricity in the camp, and there is no shortage of food for the time being. As long as we don't have any problems, it's okay to stay in the camp for a few months."

He raised his voice to remind everyone.

"Got it." Lao Li raised his hand first, "Boss, I can't sleep if I don't deal with the things first. Can you let me divide the things in the car first?"

"Okay, how is your injury? Is it okay?" Yu Hong waved his hand to indicate that he was free.

"It's okay, it's okay. I feel much better now after taking the medicine, but I'm a little tired." Li Runshan chuckled twice.

He quickly walked to the car, opened the door skillfully, and quickly pulled out a bunch of things from it.

Boxes of different sizes, microwave ovens, small refrigerators, etc. were placed under the light one by one.

"Oh, it's still Laurel brand, this is a good thing." Lao Zhou patted the microwave oven, "My family used this brand before, and it has been used for decades without breaking."

"That's right, I chose it for a long time, and your shoes." Lao Li smiled and said. As soon as he returned to the camp, he was like returning to spring from the cold winter wind and snow.

Safe, comfortable, with the boss's walls and protection technology, the safety factor is bursting.

"Boss, this is the rune you want."

He quickly turned out a small box hidden in the innermost.

The box is made of purple metal, and I don't know what material it is. The surface is engraved, that is, sunken handwriting, and it says: Obtained in the ninth cave of Yu Huaishan in April 2001. ——Zhen Zhuran

Yu Hong ignored the name and tried it. It was opened by sliding up and down. He quickly opened the box, revealing a gray-white stone wrapped in yellow silk.

Unfolding the yellow silk, the stone wrapped inside was only the size of an egg, but the surface was engraved with an irregular symbol that twisted like a snake.

This is not a composite rune, but a symbol. At most, it is a weird and simple symbol composed of a few strokes.

Yu Hong picked up the stone and observed it carefully.

"I will put the wires outside, and still use the vents to pass them out for everyone to use. As for how to place them, they can all be put in the breeding cave to avoid being wet by rain, and everyone can share them. I will go back and study this thing first."

"Wait, boss, how are we going to sleep now? There are not enough houses." Lao Li hurriedly said.

Three wooden houses, two adults and one child, now there are Dr. Xu, Li Runshan, Zhou Xueguang, Aisina, four people who need accommodation. It can be barely allocated.

"Doctor Xu has one room, Lao Li and Nana have one room, and the remaining Lao Zhou is alone, no problem." Yu Hong said in surprise.

"It's barely enough, but if someone comes later, it may not be enough. There are many things that need to be placed in a moisture-proof manner." Li Runshan nodded.

"Tomorrow we will start digging a new cave. Compared with the wooden house, the stone cave is safer." Yu Hong thought about it. The wooden house was just built quickly, so it was temporarily used to accommodate people. But if it really comes to safety, the stone cave is better.

"Okay!"

Immediately, everyone got busy, moving things, cooking, debugging home appliances, trying on shoes. For a while, the camp was full of joy, and even the neurotic Dr. Xu was smiling all the time.

Ding Shao was placed in the same place as Yao Feiling. Yu Hong built a triangular temporary wooden shed for the two of them with his bare hands to protect them from wind and rain, and threw two pyroxene blankets to them, which was considered as placement. Now Ding Shao is far from joining the camp unless she makes compensation for her previous behavior.

There are always black lizards passing by the outer courtyard for inspection, which can also be regarded as surveillance.

Without paying attention to what Ding Shao and Yao Feiling would react to their reunion, Yu Hong returned to the cave with the new symbol, full of expectations.

Bang.

He closed the door, pulled out a chair and sat down. He placed the symbol stone in his hand on the table, then took the ink made from the pyroxene powder, dipped it lightly with a wooden stick pen, and began to simulate the new symbol and practice drawing.

Not long after, a new symbol that looked like a real symbol appeared on a piece of white paper.

‘I have drawn countless runes, but I have practiced the simulation skills. ’

Yu Hong looked at the symbols on the paper with some satisfaction.

Picked up the detector and checked it.

No response, the values ​​are still the same.

‘It doesn’t seem to be the type of pyroxene symbol. Let’s try inner-qi writing again. ’

He dipped it in ink again and began to circulate his inner energy, pouring it from his palm into the wooden pen, and waited for the state to stabilize.

Another stroke of pen, and soon, a new mysterious symbol appeared on the paper again.

This time, at the moment when the symbol was formed.

The entire piece of paper suddenly underwent strange changes.

"What is this!?" Yu Hong opened his eyes wide, with a look of surprise on his face.

He picked up the white paper and turned it over carefully.

But no matter how he looked at it, this piece of paper gave him a strange feeling.

It was as if he didn't hold anything in his hands at all.

The paper was clearly in front of him, holding it in his hand, but inexplicably, every few seconds, he would naturally ignore the touch of the paper and see the white paper, and shift his attention to other things. .

‘Interesting. It seems that this symbol is probably used to conceal and reduce the sense of existence. ’ Yu Hong roughly summed it up, ‘If this effect can also be used against Black Disaster, it can be used to increase the effect of the pyroxene chamber, making the camp more inconspicuous and safer! ’

As the Black Disaster becomes stronger and stronger, and the world becomes more and more desperate, he feels more and more that in dealing with the Black Disaster, hiding is more convenient and safer than direct confrontation.

The emergence of this new symbol gave him the opportunity to strengthen the pyroxene chamber.

Although the pyroxene blanket could be strengthened before, the pyroxene blanket was enough. The need for black marks in other aspects was more urgent, so he had never thought about it. But now, with this new symbol, he can completely hide it. A wave of strengthening.

‘The most convenient thing is that this kind of enhancement can be completed without the participation of the black seal, as long as I use my inner energy. ’ Yu Hong’s mood immediately improved, and the bad mood affected by the previous incident in Guancao was slightly comforted.

'Well, let's give him a name. Since it is a symbol with a hidden effect, let’s call it a hidden symbol. ’

The pyroxene symbol, the vortex symbol, and the hidden symbol, these are the three runes he has mastered now, and they can have a great effect on the black disaster.

Among them, the hidden symbol structure is the simplest.

At that moment, Yu Hong began to use his inner energy, walked out of the wooden door, took ink and a wooden pen and began to draw this new symbol on the outside of the wooden house in the camp.

After asking, Lao Li and others learned the function of this symbol, and they all immediately looked more at ease.

"I knew the boss was no ordinary person! A symbol that even Yin Pagoda couldn't figure out wouldn't last ten minutes under his hands!" Zhou Xueguang has now begun to transform into a staunch fan of Yu Hong.

Especially elite non-commissioned officers like him who have seen the frontline research power have a deeper understanding of Hong's strong research ability.

This is where there is contrast.

"I don't know the specific effect, but at least it will make you safer in the house." Yu Hong said quickly, and by the way, he painted the wooden shed of Ding Shao and his wife.

He still had some expectations for Ding Shao. Compared to Yao, Ding Shao behaved very normally at the beginning and was also very rational and clear-headed when they met again later. If you can control them with your heart, it will really be a help to camps with few people.

He already has an idea for its arrangement.

After quickly painting all the wooden houses and the outer walls of the cave, Yu Hong looked at the completely dark sky outside. It was just around four o'clock in the afternoon.

He walked towards Ding Shao and the others, followed by the rest of the camp who were still happily trying out new electrical appliances.

The lively sounds are in sharp contrast to the silence in the wooden shed here.

In the shed, Ding Shao held a cup of hot water in his hand, leaning half against the inner wall of the shed, drinking quietly.

The injuries on her body were obviously treated by Dr. Xu.

Seeing Yu Hong coming over, she had a look of shame on her face.

"Unexpectedly, my injury was treated by a crazy doctor whom we looked down on from the beginning. Mr. Yu, if you are free, I hope you can apologize to Dr. Xu on my behalf."

"She has been at the camp and will come over soon. Just apologize to her in person." Yu Hong said. "I came here to talk to you about your affairs."

He noticed that Yao Feiling, a few meters away, was pretending to be asleep, but was actually eavesdropping.

At his level, after the physical transformation, his five senses can perceive many things around him more clearly.

What's more, the breathing and heartbeat rate when a person is asleep is completely different from when he is awake, and it is easy to distinguish.

So Yao Feiling couldn't hide it from him. But he didn't care.

He was willing to give Ding Shao a chance because she was relatively normal, but Yao was not.

"I know it's not that easy to join the camp, what do you need me to do?" Ding Shao has become much more mature and has a stable personality. At this time, he heard what Yu Hong meant.

"I have a friend." Yu Hong said, "Now his whereabouts are unknown. I will give you supplies, equipment, weapons and other materials. After you recover from your injuries, I will hire you to go to a place to help me find her. Take her Come back, come back to this camp.”

He paused.

"If you successfully find someone, the past will be wiped out, and I will very much welcome you to join the Black Wind Camp."

His words made Ding Shao slightly moved.

"Yes, but after the front line collapsed, many high-risk black disasters also came in. It is too dangerous to go out now. To what extent can the logistics supplies you provide be provided? I must understand clearly, otherwise this will be a fatal mission."
