Desperate Night

Yu Hong took Wei Shanshan to the post office. It was only ten minutes' journey, but the girl was panting, her face flushed, and she constantly needed to bend down to rest.

After walking for half an hour, the two of them arrived at the post office stone house again.

Lao Li was talking to two tall young men in the yard.

Seeing Yu Hong coming, he immediately raised his hand and waved enthusiastically.

"Less than, why are you free to come here at this time?"

Yu Hong glanced at the two men and saw that they all frowned when they saw Wei Shanshan, as if they knew the girl. He knew it immediately.

He pulled Lao Li over and told him the situation in a low voice.

"This is a small matter. I just want to report the situation of the supply team to the superiors. This incident is quite big. The superiors promised to send new people to respond, but it will take a few days to arrive." Li Runshan lowered his voice.

He glanced at Wei Shanshan and the two men.

"Most of this group of people are either rich or noble, and have special status. If something happens, the impact will be great, so I have to help. If you have many talisman formations there, please help sell them to them. Don't worry, Kill whatever you want, these people are rich."

"That's okay." Yu Hong also smiled, but then his smile faded, "Can you handle those flying insects and nibblers?"

"Fortunately, it will be fine if you hide underground." Li Runshan nodded, "It's just that I received news that the black disaster has begun to worsen at a faster pace. It is getting more and more dangerous outside, especially in the wild. In the future, there may be connections between cities. We can only rely on highly armed armed supply teams, which may be very troublesome, and we may not be able to come because of the reduction in line length.”

"Where are the countermeasures from above?" Yu Hong's heart sank when he heard this. If the supply team fails to come, or if the arrival cycle is prolonged, he and Lao Li may both have big problems. Looking at it now, no wonder this guy let himself go... In this situation, ordinary people are afraid that they are getting more and more hopeless.

"There is no countermeasure. The Black Disaster has been slowly increasing since it first appeared. However, the speed of enhancement has accelerated recently. Otherwise, why do you think I would take the risk to recruit people? It's not to prepare for the future." Li Runshan chuckled. "I have no choice. I have to expand the scale of the lizards. I have to dig up humus soil and other things. I can't finish it all by myself. I also need to dig up pyroxene, maintain the house, and take care of Nana. All these chores have to be done by others. ”

"You are quite chic." Yu Hong sneered, feeling that his reason was high-sounding.

"Don't blame me, you have to recruit some help quickly. I will give you a set of breeding boxes for free. You also have to start mushroom farming yourself. In case we can't be connected even at this distance in the future, then It's really bad." Li Runshan didn't mean to be joking, and his expression calmed down.

As he spoke, he suddenly patted his head, as if he thought of something.

"Wait for me."

He turned around and ran towards the stone house, and soon took out another set of dark boxes.

Putting the box into Yu Hong's arms, he whispered.

"This is an instant messenger, connected to the local area network, and the range is within one kilometer. Then we can use this thing to talk to each other directly."

Yu Hong hugged the box and patted it. There were many scattered things inside, which swayed and made a slight collision sound.

"Good thing! We just happen to have solar charging."

"Well, let me check it for you. The list sent to me before does indeed contain Wei Shanshan's name. Her father is Wei Hongye, a master of nuclear energy research." Li Runshan changed the subject, "What? Are you planning to start from What does she want here? But this girl belongs to their professional help team, and she probably used her identity to ask for help along the way. The promise must have been given to more than one person, so take it easy. "

"It doesn't matter, as long as it's valuable, it depends on whether her father is willing." Yu Hong said lightly. "Can you contact his father?"

"I'll try." Li Runshan nodded.

He ran to explain to the other three people, then entered the stone house and asked Yu Hong and the three people to wait quietly outside.

About ten minutes later, Lao Li opened the door again and came out, waving to Yu Hong.

Yu Hong's heart moved and he went up to the stone house.

Soon Wei Shanshan was called in behind him.

The two came to the wooden table in the living room of the stone house, sat down, and faced a set of special silver sound-like instruments on the table.

"I'm Wei Hongye, is Shanshan here?" An anxious and worried male voice came from the instrument.

"Dad! I'm here! I'm on the edge!!" As soon as Wei Shanshan heard the voice, her eyes suddenly turned red, and big tears fell down again.

"Mom. Mom is dying. We have no medicine! I'm so afraid of anti-inflammatory medicine. There are monsters everywhere outside recently! We just stopped and there have been many people missing in just a few days."

She threw herself next to the instrument and burst into tears. His voice was mixed with sobs, and he began to talk about the situation after they came over.

Yu Hong was listening.

After the accident happened to the supply team, this group of people immediately took some supplies and fled from pursuit. Many people died when encountering strange shadows along the way. But most people gradually adapt to it.

But just after adapting to the strange shadows, the night nibblers came again, and several people disappeared in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the teachers and bodyguards in the team were about to collapse. They began to protect only the most important parts of themselves, while the others ignored them and allowed them to fend for themselves.

"The entire team is now divided into three categories: children of high-ranking coalition forces, children of local officials, and relatives of scholars and research institutions like us. We are the least protected! They take all the food, drink and medicines that come for help first. , the first night we were finally able to come here, we lost two people from the team.”

Wei Shanshan explained carefully and in a tearful tone.

"Where's Yan Xudong? Didn't that kid promise me to protect you!?" Wei Hongye asked angrily on the other end of the communication, feeling heartbroken.

"Brother Dong went out to look for water the next day and never came back," Wei Shanshan cried.

There was silence on the communication side for a while, and then a long sigh came out.

"Who is the postman who is contacting me now?"

"My dear Li Runshan, Director Wei is too polite. Just call me Lao Li." Li Runshan said quickly.

"Brother Li also heard about the situation on my daughter's side. I wonder if it's okay?" Wei Hongye requested.

"In this regard, it is actually no problem to simply live there, but what Wei Shanshan lacks is anti-inflammatory medicine. I have run out of this medicine here, and only Mr. Yu Hong, another settler nearby, has it. So the key now is to get together with Mr. Yu Hong made the replacement." Li Runshan quickly explained the situation.

"So is Mr. Yu Hong nearby?"

"He's right there."

"Okay, then, can you please Mr. Yu to help my daughter and my wife? What kind of reward do you need? If I can get it here, I will definitely send it to you later." Wei Hongye said sincerely.

This is what Yu Hong was waiting for.

"Okay. I want something like a miniature nuclear battery. Is this okay?" He immediately made a condition.

"Nuclear energy batteries. The current technology is still a long way from micro-nuclear energy batteries." Wei Hongye said speechlessly, which sounded like the words of someone who was not familiar with cutting-edge nuclear energy research.

"I need a long-term stable indoor energy source. I don't know much about this. Let's do this. As long as you can help me solve this problem, I will help you protect your daughter and wife." Yu Hong said quickly.

With his current conditions, protecting two people should not be a big problem. As long as the exaggerated evil image of Yu Ren does not appear in a short period of time, it will be fine.

The communication side pondered for a moment.

"I understand what you mean. In this case, because radioactive raw materials are very rare and closely guarded, I have no right to use them privately, so I can't give you physical objects in terms of nuclear energy. But..."

"But what?" Yu Hong frowned.

"But there is an abandoned town nearby where you are. There is something you need in it. I can give you the specific location." Wei Hongye didn't say it clearly, but the meaning was obvious. As a senior executive of the Nuclear Energy Research Institute, it is impossible for him to expressly state in the course of postal communications that he uses public equipment for private use and gives away nuclear energy equipment.

But another way is to give a piece of key information and let Yu Hong get it himself. This is completely different. I just don't know how many people he sold this information to.

Legal, compliant and reasonable.

"Okay!" Yu Hong heard the hidden meaning. Although there might be a risk of being deceived, in this case, he had no other choice.

If he can really get a nuclear energy system, he won't have to worry about energy problems for decades to come. Short reactors can last for thirty years, and long ones can even last up to sixty years.

In this way, one of his biggest headaches will be completely solved.

With energy, the water supply system can also operate to ensure the supply of water flow.

"Next, my condition is that you and Mr. Li will protect Shanshan and her daughter together until the new rescue team arrives. And what you want will also be delivered with the rescue team. Is that okay?" Wei Hongye said in a deep voice.

"Deal!" Yu Hong said quickly.

This is actually equivalent to taking a gamble, and it will bring huge profits. If it fails, he will waste a few days, so it doesn't matter.

"But how can I ensure that the news you give me is true?" Yu Hong asked again.

"I can't guarantee it," Wei Hongye said after a moment of silence, "but I can reveal another important news to you."

"Say." Yu Hong said.

"Aurora City and Silver Tower are about to be unable to hold on. There are too many casualties on the front line, and no one can stop the nightmare-level black disaster. They ignore most of our weapons. Only sunlight materials can dodge and resist, but sunlight materials The output is too low. Since the last elite death squad disappeared last month, the situation has gotten out of control." Wei Hongye sighed.

"Out of control?? What do you mean??" Yu Hong became solemn, and Li Runshan on the side also looked solemn. Obviously he didn't know the news.

"It's literally out of control, and the front line can't stop it. The real danger is coming soon, and things like evil shadows can only be considered minor troubles. War level, nightmare level, and the latest door of despair."

Wei Hongye's words made everyone present feel their hearts beat wildly.

"If the front line cannot be stopped, then endless evil shadows will rush into the inner area crazily. By then, the situation in the wild will not be so safe. The density and frequency will be many times higher than now, and at the same time, those who are truly The danger will also rush in, no one can stop it," he continued.

"United Army" Li Runshan asked.

"Actually, I'll tell you a fact." Wei Hongye said, "The weapons and equipment of the United Army are useless against many evil shadows and black disasters, including pyroxene weapons. They can't kill them all, and they can't die. Even the shadows can't be killed with pyroxene weapons. It doesn't take long for them to reappear after being dispersed, so once the defense line collapses, monsters that can recover quickly will also come in."

"What about nuclear bombs? Why not use nuclear bombs?" Li Runshan couldn't help but interrupt.

“How do you know it’s useless?” Wei Hongye asked.
