Monarch of the Dark Nights - C238
Where did Feng Ling and Li Jian go?
There was no way to guess. The blood on the wall had dried out, and the battle should have taken place a day ago.
He didn’t know how long he had slept for. His watch was just a timekeeping function, and there was no calendar on it. Looking at the time, he had only slept for less than two hours, but this was clearly not right. He had slept for at least a day and a night, or maybe even longer.
The ten or so grenade shrapnel wounds still ached faintly because they had not been recovered in time, but the wound on his chest that had been left behind by the vicious beast had already healed. Everything that he had experienced showed just how real it was.
The bloodstains represented a dangerous battle. If there was a fight, there would be casualties. This battle was most likely related to the Qi Feng Society!
Although Gao Chi had moved another place after sending over the piece of equipment that Li Jian and his wife had pawned to him, it wasn’t as if Yun Tu and the other two were completely unprepared. They didn’t move too far this time as they were only two hundred meters away from the original hiding spot.
Killing Yun Tu in the mystic realm had failed. Since he had offended him, then he wouldn’t stop until he had finished everything. Once again, he led his men and charged straight towards their hiding place.
The blood on the wall was all dried up, and there was not a single corpse in the room. The result of the battle was inconceivable.
However, so much time had passed and it didn’t help that Yun Tu was in such a hurry.
This place had already been visited by the Qi Feng Society, and the battle had already occurred. Even if the Qi Feng Society were to search the entire world for the Cloud Diagram, this place would still be the safest place to do so.
In peaceful times, he was an artist, he loved fantasy and lyricism, but in the apocalyptic world he became a thorough pragmatist.
Regardless of whether it was Feng Ling or Li Jian and his wife, in order to find out where they were going, they had to first restore their strength! Struggling to sit up, Yun Tu first took out a healing medicine and some disinfectant from his spatial ring, then began to take out the shrapnel and bandage himself.
The wounds from the shrapnel on his body weren’t serious, but there were a lot of wounds. It was very inconvenient to deal with the positions of the several wounds by himself. Yun Tu had to spend more than an hour to clean all the wounds on his body.
Even more serious than the wound was hunger. After finishing his work, Yun Tu took out water and food from his space ring and began to replenish his energy.
When he had taken out the gauze from the spatial ring, he had already seen it quietly lying at a corner of the spatial ring, but it had shrunk to the size of a normal dictionary. However, since he had returned to reality from the secret plane, Yun Tu was not in a hurry to study it.
The “Divine Awakening Mission Book” was once again taken out and magnified to about two feet in length. The first page of the task book was once again opened, and it no longer emitted a golden light; it was as easy as flipping through an ordinary dictionary. However, when he truly saw the content on the first page, he couldn’t help but be once again astonished.
On the page a few centimeters away, the four pieces of equipment were embedded in a circle. In the center of the circle, there was a pill the size of a red date. The pill was vermilion in color with dense spiritual energy.
What is this?
In his previous life, he had never seen Cloud Diagram either!
Holding the vermilion pill in his hand, Yun Tu immediately had an answer to the question in his mind. It was as if the answer to everything was in his mind!
Sixth Cycle of the Advancing Pill!
Anyone below the sixth rank would be able to raise their strength by one level after consuming this pill.
The power of a god was truly mysterious!
Yun Tu was surprised in his heart, but he also felt a trace of unease. When he was in the secret realm, he felt that he had seen that old man’s face in the sky before!
Now that he had returned to the real world, there was no dangerous atmosphere around him. Yun Tu could just calm down and think back.
According to the chronological order, he went through all of his experiences in the secret realm since the apocalypse. Finally, he remembered, that was the first time he and Caesar had accidentally entered the illusion space that he thought he had named the “second layer of the secret realm” because they had completed the mission at the same time in the illusion palace. Back then, during his meditation, the old man’s face had appeared in the sky once.
Now, combining the words of the old man in the sky, he could basically determine that the mysterious power represented by that old man had unknowingly controlled the entire secret plane’s system. They were currently screening some relatively powerful humans in order to raise them to greater heights.
Although he felt like he was being manipulated like a chess piece, Yun Tu still felt an indescribable sense of excitement. With this pill, as long as he wanted it, he could immediately advance from the third level to the fourth level.
Now that the apocalypse had come to an end, humans were finally able to stand firm in this world where zombies and magical beasts ran rampant. All the ambitious people couldn’t help but hope that they would become stronger day by day, in order to seize more resources in this apocalyptic world and rebuild the new rules of this world according to their own wishes.
The pill in his hand could be said to be extremely difficult to obtain and was simply too precious. He could not bear to consume it immediately. This was a Six Cycle Advancing Pill; anyone below the sixth-grade would be able to raise it by one level.
He was only at the third level right now, so if he were to use this precious pill to level up, he would only be able to reach the fourth level. Although his strength would definitely increase by leaps and bounds, it would still be a waste of resources.
Therefore, the best method was to wait until he reached level five, and then use it to level up to level six. That was because leveling up from level five to level six was ten times more difficult than leveling up from level three to level four.
He would have to wait until he reached level four, and then use it to level up from level four to five.
Carefully putting away the pill, Yun Tu opened the second page of the “Divine Awakening Book” and suddenly dropped several round objects. When he picked them up and looked, he found that they were exactly the same as the round objects that Yun Tu had snatched from the rank 4 masters of the Blood Red Army.
It turned out that their method of measuring a crescent-shaped item fragment was from the “Book of Divine Awakening”. After picking up the round items, Yun Tu’s gaze returned to the page. There was nothing on the page, only a circular groove like the ring on the first page.
He gathered all four fragments of the crescent-shaped prop, and then he would be able to create a ring, and then he would be able to see the face of the old man in the sky, and then he would receive the “Godly Enlightenment Mission Book”, and he would receive the precious pill for promotion. At the same time, he would also get the tools to determine if there were any fragments of the prop on other people’s body.
After that, in order to obtain a reward, you would once again embark on your journey and desperately search for other crescent-shaped fragments of items. When you gather all of them together again, you can fill up another page of the quest book and receive another reward.
Although he did not know what rewards he would get from completing the second page of the quest, he believed that the reward would not be worse than the pill on the first page after completing the second page.
Everyone was a piece controlled by the gods, and everyone watched the gods holding the candy in their hands like children. So when the gods told you to go east, you went east, you went west, you went west.
This feeling was very unpleasant, but how many people could escape? Yun Tu shook his head and sighed!
As they walked, they talked. Although they were still more than two hundred meters away from Yuntu, but now that Yuntu had eaten his fill, his hearing was sharp and clear. As the two of them got closer, the content of their conversation was gradually heard by Yuntu.
“What is the Qi Feng Society doing now? Why are they leading both the Blood Red Army and the Risky Gang, and why are they sending people to patrol the outskirts of the base while chasing after the survivors of the Blood Red Army? In my opinion, they are of the same species as the original Blood Red Legion, and all the stories are about them acting as their own thieves. Their goal is to unify the city and force all the other guilds to disperse!”
“Isn’t that so? The Ruan brothers are such honest people. They got treasures in the secret realm. I heard they were invited by Qi Feng club not long after they left the secret realm. They haven’t even been out for two days. Xuan Luo!”
“Right now, the Qi Feng Society is still in a fake gorilla state, claiming that they have freely developed the secret plane.” Right now, the Qi Feng Society is still in a fake gorilla state, claiming that they have freely developed the secret plane.
The two of them chatted as they walked past Yun Tu’s hiding spot. Yun Tu had originally wanted to rush out and rob them, but he had just taken out a bullet from the remaining wound on his body. If the two of them were to escape one at a time, it would expose him, so he could only endure as he watched the two of them leave.
He was waiting for his injuries to heal and for the sky to turn dark!
After he entered the secret plane on the third day of the apocalypse, he had almost never stopped practising alchemy. Now that his alchemy skills had reached level four, it was only a hair’s breadth away from level four. This time, after he strengthened a few weapons, his alchemy skills had already reached level four.
Although Alchemy had already risen to Level 4, every time the materials used to strengthen the weapon had to be of a higher level, and if he wanted to strengthen the dagger and the boomerang in his hand, the only materials he could use were the few wolf teeth of the Level 5 King Kong Wolf. Although once again raising the level of the disintegrator, Luo Gang could convert this level 5 wolf tooth into a purer material, which would not only save the materials but also enhance the effect.
After upgrading the weapon in his hand with the teeth of the level five King Kong Wolf, the two sharp weapons changed color once again. The edge of the cold blade was actually surrounded by a dense fog.
Seeing this, Yun Tu was overjoyed. This was great!
This kind of dense fog that lingered around the edge of the blade was called a virtual blade. Normal weapons would need to undergo five times of enhancement before they could fire this kind of blade. This was only one possibility and not all weapons would produce the same effect.
In his previous life, he had been stuck in the apocalypse for a few years, but his main profession had finally barely risen to level 6. At that time, most of the secondary professions of the small and middle-sized guilds were still at level 5 or 6, and in order to make the weapon in his hand appear hollow blades, he had still spent a lot of money to request another alchemist from one of the big guilds.
Now that the two weapons in his hands had appeared when he was strong at the fourth rank, it was definitely a good thing.
He took out a Level 2 Beast Skin. With a wave of his hand, the blade of the saber was two centimeters away from the Beast Skin and did not touch it. The Level 2 Beast Skin was cut into two halves as if it was cut by a laser beam, and with another swing of the saber, the blade of the saber cut open a hole just as it came into contact with the Level 3 Beast Skin.
The quality of the equipment was a very important part of one’s strength. If his boomerang had reached this level during his last fight with Gao Chi in the secret realm, then his sneak attack might have killed him. Now, with the increase in the quality of the weapons from Alchemy, Yun Tu’s combat prowess had advanced by another step!
As night fell, the entire dilapidated county city was finally swallowed up by a black, ink-like substance. It was another pitch black night, with only a few dots of light resembling fireflies remaining in the headquarter city.
Feng Ling’s whereabouts were unknown. They and the Qi Feng Society had gone from allies to enemies, so one person was destined to die before leaving Qi County to return to Jiangnan City!
Cloud Diagram, who liked to move in the dark, put on a black windbreaker and left the room like a ghost.
