Night of Despair-Chapter 212 - : Confusing 210

Chapter 212: Confusing 210

Yu Hong manipulated Inner Qi, quickly forming a clear three-dimensional traction rune within his body.

As time passed, one after another traction rune formed.

Inside the Dantian, all Inner Qi soon turned into white disk-shaped traction runes.

With the runes exerting their effects, they started to attract each other like magnets, sticking together, forming a mass that grew larger.

Yu Hong quietly observed as all the Inner Qi converged into a sphere.

The sphere quickly continued to shrink as if the internal forces were still actively working.

From the size of a fist, it gradually shrank to the size of an egg.

At this point, the ball of Inner Qi had become flawlessly white, constantly releasing a dazzling bright light.

“It seems about right, doesn’t it?” Yu Hong estimated in his mind.

Just as he was about to manipulate the Inner Qi to test it,

suddenly his body felt hot and burning, his skin rapidly turned red, and his body temperature soared from thirty-seven degrees, swiftly exceeding forty degrees.

The Inner Qi ball, emitting blinding white light, seemed to go mad, its surface beginning to boil and burn.

Visualization flashed rapidly and automatically in Yu Hong’s mind.

Inside the Dantian, all Inner Qi moved along the trajectory of the traction runes, flowing rapidly, circulating, then further compressing.

Soon, the egg-sized ball of Inner Qi shrank again, becoming the size of a date.

Then, as if the concentration of Inner Qi triggered something, the visualization of the sixth layer of Thunderbolt Leg Technique naturally emerged in Yu Hong’s mind.

Everything seemed to fall into place naturally.

At the bottom of the Inner Qi sphere, a tiny spiral hole appeared.

From this hole, a thread of silvery-white fluid slowly began to seep out.

As soon as the fluid flowed out, it dispersed into the surroundings, vanishing into the Dantian.

At the same time, Yu Hong stood on the open ground; in the darkness, his whole body’s skin slowly started glowing with a faint white light.

Streams of Black Disaster radiation, extremely repulsive, radiated from his body in waves.

The surrounding air’s Red Value radiation was also continuously absorbed into his skin.

Two types of radiation, which should have neutralized each other, were instead going in and out without conflict.

The abnormality of his body glowing with white light lasted for more than half an hour before it gradually faded.

Yu Hong stood still, raised his hand, clenched his fist, and felt something different in his body.

He exhaled, and his hot breath instantly turned into white mist, shooting more than a meter away from the breathing valves on either side.

“Did I succeed?” he wondered.

The method for cultivating the sixth layer of Thunderbolt Transformation flashed through his mind.

“Reverse the flow of Inner Qi, pressurize ten streams of Inner Qi on both sides of the legs. Then perform the Thunder Trace Step, form the Heaven Mountain Seal, and detonate the flow throughout the body.”

Yu Hong once again manipulated his Inner Qi; twenty streams flowed smoothly out of the Inner Qi ball in the Dantian, which in turn shrunk to half its size.

Inner Qi entered his legs, and then he followed the content recorded in the secret manual, walking forward step by step.

Thunder Trace Step was a set of steps that looked like ordinary walking, but each step used different force and matched different visualization.

Nine steps, one step per platform.

Then his hands formed a seal, fingers shaped like a complex ‘mountain’ character.

Even though he walked on flat ground, Yu Hong felt as if he were rising.

“An illusion?” he looked around.

The surrounding sparse trees seemed thinner, the Black Fog also lightened, becoming sparse.

Not far away, the two dragon lizards lying down also seemed to have shrunk significantly, looking like toys that he could grab and play with by hand.

Suddenly,

Yu Hong finally realized something.

He turned back and looked towards the camp.

The stone castle, which originally was two stories high, had also shrunk significantly.

He reached out his hand, gently touched the second-floor window ledge of the stone castle, and picked up a filter cup from the table beside the window.

“So it’s not an illusion; I have really grown…”

Seeing the miniature cup in his hand, Yu Hong finally experienced an epiphany.

Miles away from Aurora City on a highway,

amid the buzzing sound of an engine, a black armored vehicle, with bright yellow headlights, sped along the road.

It was pitch dark, and suddenly a slightly smaller transport vehicle appeared on the otherwise empty road.

The military green transport vehicle strangely stopped at the side, instead of aligning with the road.

Next to the vehicle, two fully armed tall figures were whispering beside the body of the vehicle.

Seeing the approaching armored vehicle, they moved forward, waving their hands, signaling it to stop.

The vehicle slowed down; Shu Cheng confirmed through a whispered password from behind the driving window that it was people from Aurora City and then got out of the car.

“What’s the situation?” he asked softly.

“Coming from Black Wind Camp? Following the minister’s orders, the goods are to be transferred to me for delivery to another laboratory for testing. After ensuring there’s no issue, it will then be taken to the troops,” one of the tall figures spoke solemnly.

“I need to confirm,” Shu Cheng said firmly.

This chapter is updat𝓮d by freēnovelkiss.com.

“Here’s the ID,” the other person produced a credential.

“That’s fine,” Shu Cheng examined the ID, confirmed it was legitimate, and nodded in agreement.

“There are two boxes; the big one is the trading goods, the small one is personal items that Yu Hong asked me to transfer to Lin Yiyi of Investigation Team Two.”

“Let me take them all,” the tall figure said calmly. “For safety responsibility, anything sent forward or to the battlefield must go through a security check.”

“Understood,” Shu Cheng nodded. Once the two unloaded the goods, he turned the car in another direction and left.

The remaining two also turned their vehicle around, heading back towards Aurora City.

“Does Shu Cheng not know?” the shorter driver asked softly.

“No, he’s just a middleman. It’s wise for the Shu family caravan to survive by making an alliance,” the taller figure responded indifferently.

“What about the goods? How will they be sent?”

“Grenades, as agreed, none less, all to be sent for inspection. Then distributed to the top brass. Of course, the numbers can’t be short, but anything has a yield rate, splitting one third to swap with those produced by Lei herself.”

“Who gets the other box for Team Two?”

“Team Two is currently unaccounted for. Who would I deliver it to? Sister Thunder already said it counts as mid-route Black Disaster incurred battle damage.”

“That’s ruthless!”

“Can’t help it with association affairs,” the tall one took off his breathing valve and lit a cigarette, taking a deep drag.

“So, are we splitting it ourselves?” the short one smiled.

“Split my ass! If you want to die, just say it straight, it’s all Sister Thunder’s. She said we need to destroy Black Wind soon. Once Meisha has dealt with those two, Team Two can’t stay. This Hong had been unappreciative before, can’t keep him.”

“Should we bring out the big guns?”

“Pretty much, we’ll take them down from over the horizon. After all, we can’t suppress it this time, and all of us will have to retreat with Sister Thunder. The Joint Military Council has already got their eyes on us. Yang behaves like a wild dog, charges wherever he smells something, and the modified ones are all a bunch of lunatics who don’t care about dying!”

The car gradually accelerated, slowly disappearing into the Black Fog.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The heavy and immense footsteps once again startled Yu Hong from his sleep.

With a swish, he threw off the blanket, got up, and looked around.

He was sleeping in the basement, the surroundings illuminated by the soft glow of a night light.

The walls were trembling, the ground was trembling, and the wooden bed was emitting a shrill creaking noise.

He quickly got up, climbed the stairs to the first floor, put on his gear, and stepped out with his weapon.

Outside,

the sky was still pitch black as ink.

The camp’s lights were holding back the densely flowing mass of black bugs.

‘The surge period is today…’ Yu Hong thought, his heart chilling.

At this point, the surge period of the Blood Tide was no longer dangerous for him.

The hordes of black blood ticks could not penetrate even the camp’s light; they were the weakest Black Disaster.

The bigger creatures, Big Skin and elephant worms, were firmly blocked outside by the Array — some even burned to death by the fire spat by dragon lizards before they got close.

Now, there were over a dozen dragon lizards stationed around the camp, forming a solid defensive line.

They acted like assassins, targeting only the larger and more dangerous Black Disaster individuals.

Right now, Yu Hong’s focus was not on Big Skin and elephant worms.

But rather, the owner of the huge footsteps hidden further beyond beneath the dense Black Fog.

‘Should I go check it out?’ The recently achieved mastery of the Thunderbolt Leg Technique had inflated Yu Hong’s confidence significantly.

Up to this point, without a clear reference, he didn’t know the extent of his own strength.

He only knew… the sixth layer of the Thunderbolt Transformation was very strong!

As for how strong, he didn’t know.

As for whether he could win, he felt that even if he couldn’t beat them, he could definitely run away.

As he hesitated,

suddenly the footsteps in the distance started to get louder!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!!

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, heavier and heavier.

Each step made Yu Hong’s heart shrink.

‘No, this guy is heading towards the camp! This time it’s not just passing by; it’s going through the camp!!’

Yu Hong instantly assessed the situation.

At that moment, his mind raced, and the dragon lizards surged out, spreading around to encompass the direction of the footsteps.

He himself also picked up his weapon and ran swiftly in the direction of the sound.

Entering the sixth layer, he stepped out, and his speed increased substantially.

Feeling the wind whistling beside his ears, he couldn’t hear anything else.

Ahead, the Black Fog rapidly divided to both sides.

Bursting out of the camp, he turned on his atomic lamp, shining a green light forward.

At the same time, the shared vision from the surrounding dragon lizards came streaming in.

Soon, a clear black-and-white image emerged in Yu Hong’s eyes.

In the dark forest shrouded in fog,

a giant human figure of a small mountain, entirely black, was running wildly towards the camp.

Around the figure were towering dead trees, but those only reached its calves.

The tallest stone castle in Black Wind Camp was like a child’s toy block in front of it, barely reaching its ankles.

‘…So big!!’ Watching the figure charge straight towards the camp, Yu Hong felt a chilling terror rise, his body breaking out in goosebumps, his mind blanking out.

‘What do I do, what do I do, what do I do!!?!’

In an instant, desperate thoughts flashed through his mind.

Quickly estimating the distance, it would take about seven or eight seconds to reach the camp.

Hoping that the other party would take bigger steps and not step on the camp was clearly unrealistic.

The opponent was a Black Disaster, uncommunicable, and naturally stood in opposition.

‘I have to divert it, make it turn!!’

A thought flashed in Yu Hong’s mind.

‘How do I lure it?’

Facing such a massive Black Disaster monster, even the rockets that had previously damaged the camp didn’t work effectively.

For a moment, Yu Hong’s mind spun rapidly, considering all the methods and weapons at his disposal.

Suddenly, an unprecedented thought rose from his mind.
