The world enters the age of myth

Chapter 212 Dark Night Falls

Just like that, a month passed again...

The set of cultural exports has already shown initial results. After returning, almost all the Nanfeng described the Yunhai as a rich and powerful world in heaven and earth.

The ruling group of the Nanfeng has also noticed this. People on the ship have longed for the Unkai. This increasingly serious public opinion trend may produce centrifugal force.

But they are in trouble, because they also get a lot of benefits from the exchanges, and it is impossible to cut off all the flow of people. Yunhaihao can provide excellent hybrid rice seeds and inorganic salt nutrient solutions for soilless cultivation. With their technological strength, these culture solutions are impossible to produce.

And relying on the powerful armed force of the Unkai, even the top brass of the Nanfeng felt a certain sense of security.

They no longer want to live the fearful days they had before.

Under this situation, each of the ruling groups of Nanfeng had their own little ideas. Some people still want to ensure the independence of the Nanfeng, and other families are trying to find ways to submit certificates of nomination. Only those who submit their certificates early can guarantee their status.

However, God is not as good as man, and another major event happened suddenly, disrupting all the rhythm...

On this day, the sun that had been hanging in the sky for more than a year slowly came down.

it's dark.

People have become accustomed to the feeling that there is always the sun in the sky. Even inside the shelter, lights are used to adjust day and night, but as soon as they come out of the shelter, they can always see the bright sun hanging high above their heads.

But at this moment, the sun really sets.

When the light in the sky disappeared bit by bit, everyone felt a strong sense of uneasiness.

If the daylight phenomenon occurs in Yanghe for more than a year, does the darkness also last for one or two years? This is a very real problem.

Such a long night made everyone feel terrified.

"Dear investigators, the investigation tasks in the future may be even heavier, so I'm sorry to trouble you all." Lu Yiming made work arrangements immediately.

A few hours after the sun sets, a crescent moon hangs high in the sky, replacing the sun. The weirdest thing is that this moon has a hint of dark red, which makes it uncomfortable to look at.

The waves on the Yang River have become much smaller for no reason. The huge ocean has slowly turned into a pool of stagnant water, and even the sound of waves hitting the hull of the ship can no longer be heard.

The sea just stopped moving...

Faced with this strange situation, not only the newly-joined Nanfeng personnel were a little panicked, but even the higher-ups of the Unkai were nervous.

Ding Yuan held an emergency meeting for this purpose. He sat in the middle of the conference room, took a deep breath and said: "Gentlemen and Madam, I believe you all know that after dark, our internal work and rest time will still be as follows. Normal standard time does not need to change much. What do you think will happen after dark? What preparations do we need?"

There was silence in the conference room, and no one spoke for a while.

After several minutes, Lu Yiming took the lead and spoke: "In fact, in the past year or so, we have not encountered anything particularly weird. The brain-control bug incident, and those bugs that can tamper with memory, are still understandable. Science can also give a reluctant explanation for the various monsters produced in the White Mist Continent. Although it cannot explain them all, it can explain a small part."

"These past accidents caused a certain amount of panic, but they were still controllable."

"But now, I have a very strange premonition that this night may be...a bit difficult, and I may encounter something even more bizarre."

"I don't know why, but since the moment the sun goes down, the beating speed of the heart has remained at about 80 beats per minute. This is a summons from the subconscious mind to prepare for battle."

"Yes, I also have this hunch. The heartbeat speed remains at a high range." Shi Dayong also said.

Lu Yiming sighed: "Maybe it has something to do with the day and night here. Day means safety, and night means danger. This is also the traditional understanding of major civilizations. Maybe it is placed in the wider universe. Likewise, if this common cognition forms an idealistic law, we should be careful."

Yes, no matter which region or ethnic group, it is almost a consensus that it is safer during the day than at night!

"...Use a cover to cover the sun lamp on the deck. I'm worried that it will be too bright and attract the attention of something. In addition to the necessary light, we still have to find a way to survive the long night...Hey, You still have to be careful.”

Shi Dayong continued: "The Nanfeng side should also take care of it. If we do well, it would be meaningless if they directly pull the hips and attract danger."

Ding Yuan nodded: "I will ask the Nanfeng to pay attention to this and try not to emit light. They are unlikely to deliberately seek death. If there is an unknown accident and it is not a big deal, there should be no need to worry too much. They also have their own military there, but intelligence should be shared."

"Our super investigators here should be patrolling 24 hours a day. This is done in cooperation with the security system and the army."

"no problem."

"Moreover, we must speed up the experiment of strengthening potions. Even if there may be risks, we must try to cultivate more superpowers. The current strengthening potions..."

A biologist said: "The current pharmaceuticals are all tailor-made, and the experimental data are not very sufficient. The safety probability of the mass-produced ones is about 90%."

"90%?" This probability is not particularly high.

An invisible pressure hangs over everyone's heart. The thought of a world without light that may last for more than a year, or even two years, makes everyone feel heavy in their hearts.

The coming year will be too difficult.

"Everyone, don't be too pessimistic. I have a question. How would an ancient civilization with no technology spend such a long night?"

General Guo Xianfeng raised his hand and asked this question, "Those ancient civilizations did not have nuclear power generation technology or solar lamps. They should not be able to produce food with such little moonlight, right? Could they be able to preserve food for more than a year? What they encountered When we are in danger, how should we overcome it? Should we use supernatural powers?"

Lu Yiming said: "I think it may be that the population is relatively small and the food reserves are enough to survive this long thought. There may also be other ways, such as some special supernatural phenomenon that can provide a light source and use It can help plants grow; or some mysterious phenomena can protect themselves. Our research on supernatural phenomena may not be as good as ancient civilizations."

Professor Huang recalled the information he had discovered and nodded: "That's right. In that ancient sailing ship, we found a sculpture of unknown purpose and some strange things. From the current perspective, these materials , is not necessarily useless.”

No matter how nervous they are, everyone still has to calm down and discuss seriously.

This question is so puzzling. It would be great if we could find some clues.

It's just a pity that the information is too scattered, and the materials of the ancient sailing ship are no longer around. After discussing for a long time, nothing can be analyzed.

Ding Yuan added a few words at the end: "The next key task is to control the public. Except for necessary staff on the deck of the Yunhai, please do not come up at will. It is best to wear protective clothing when going out. Plants outside, Bring in all the fruit trees or cocoa trees that can be moved in. We still have some empty conference rooms in the Central Building, so we should be able to place some trees."

After the meeting, Lu Yiming wiped the sweat from his forehead and issued an order to all the sheriffs, asking them to urgently recruit a large group of young people from the community to go to the deck level to move precious things into the warehouse and move plants along the way.

"Brother Lu, something feels a little bad outside."

When Guo Weiqiang saw the dark environment around him, he couldn't help but swallow hard, "The sound of the waves has disappeared... all the seabirds are hiding in the shed, and even if people walk by, they won't fly away!"

"You said those birds... refused to fly away?"

"Yes!"

Lu Yiming swallowed. The danger perception of birds is much better than that of humans.

It shows that this premonition of danger is absolutely real.

The Sea of ​​Clouds plus the newly added Nanfeng were so small and terrifying compared to such endless silence.

The endless black night, the dark red moon, everything seems to indicate something...

The psychological pressure of all the young people increased dramatically, and they no longer had the courage to even chat with each other. They couldn't help but speed up their actions. The sooner they completed it, the sooner they could escape back to the shelter.

"Move all the useful things back and cover the sun lamp with black cloth."

All the vision enhancers and hearing enhancers are carefully guarding their surroundings.

Various surveillance probes were also quietly observing the surroundings, and people used almost all their investigative power.

The current high-pressure alert state may last for more than a year...

At this time, another large group of seabirds flew from the sky and landed near the plantation greenhouse.

"Captain Lu, do you want to drive these birds away?" a police officer shouted softly, "They look like ordinary seabirds."

Lu Yiming rushed over and observed for a while. These birds were all mixed together, and there were many types. Red-throated loons, black-footed albatross, petrels, white-headed owls, etc. were all mixed together, and they were able to live in harmony. When the seabirds saw humans, they did not run away immediately. Instead, they huddled together and looked very scared.

But even if someone walked over to catch them, these seabirds refused to fly away. They flapped their wings a few times and squeezed back again.

They seemed to know that the little Sea of ​​Clouds was the only safe corner where they could dock.

This scene made everyone's scalp numb.

"How about..." One of the soldiers tightened his grip on the gun in his hand.

"Forget it, the perception of animals is more sensitive than humans, which may bring some enlightenment. Just empty a room for these birds and let them hide...just monitor them closely."
