A distant candle was lit in the darkness ten thousand years ago, and today, ten thousand years later, candles are once again lit up from the dark earth.

The power supply had collapsed and the flashlight had long since run out of power.

The world fell into endless darkness, which was a night more terrifying than the darkness of the rainy season. In the darkness of the rainy season, there was no distinction between day and night, and there would be a faint light for people to see normally.

Once you leave the three-meter range of the light source, you will enter a completely dark area where you cannot see anything.

All the light inside will be swallowed up, even the light from the direction of origin will disappear, and the vision will fall into silent darkness. If you stay in this environment for a long time, you will even doubt whether you still exist.

Although there will be some light during the day in the Season of Despair, once night falls, it will be pitch dark and the moon will no longer appear from the darkness.

Ordinary lights cannot illuminate the world after falling into darkness, nor can they drive away the monsters in the darkness, so a circle of torches was lit outside the Huangshan base, and monsters that appeared in the darkness would automatically stay away from the burning torches.

Huang Shang led a group of people walking in the dark, and everyone around her held a torch. They came to the homes of the survivors and placed a lit torch and a candle in front of the survivors' doors.

All buildings outside the range of the torch were engulfed in darkness, and only the area illuminated by the flames could remain normal.

The boundless darkness makes people feel a sense of fear, as if everything is undergoing some silent changes in the place where there is no fire. Especially after staring at the darkness for a long time, the feeling will become stronger.

Every time she inadvertently glimpsed the darkness, Huang Shang would be silent for a while, as if something in the darkness was attracting her.

The dark passage in her memories was very similar to this darkness, and it seemed that there would be someone in the darkness who would hold her hand and lead her out of this darkness.

The night was attracting her. Huang Shang didn't dare to stare at the night for too long, as she would soon look away.

She was followed by a team of well-equipped guards. They wore the dark blue uniforms of the Alliance, and the black guns on their waists emitted a cold metallic luster in the dark.

They looked alert and serious, and followed Huang Shang closely, guarding their leader closely.

The night is not safe.

It was Huang Shang who discovered that the monster was afraid of fire. After Bai Ying attacked her, Huang Shang quickly dodged her attack. Huang Shang had been practicing his skills since the kidnapping incident, and the monster Bai Ying's attacks all missed.

When the soldiers guarding outside the office heard the noise, they immediately came in to help her subdue Bai Ying.

Huang Shang didn't want to hurt Bai Ying, so he immediately ordered them to subdue Bai Ying instead of shooting her to death.

After being subdued, Bai Ying still tried to attack her. She was unable to communicate and had no rationality at all, so Huang Shang had no choice but to lock her up in the dungeon.

When Huang Shang approached her with a torch, Bai Ying would let out a sharp cry and struggle desperately. She was so afraid of fire that she even stopped attacking Huang Shang. Huang Shang had to temporarily give up communicating with her.

The group walked in silence in the dark night, quietly placed torches at the doorsteps of designated survivors and left without disturbing the people inside too much.

The number of candles was definitely not enough, and ordinary torches would not burn for very long. Although Huang Shang had stockpiled a large number of candles and other items because he was worried about power outages, it was definitely not enough for the entire base to survive for three days.

They now had specially made torches that, when filled with fuel, would burn all night long.

Due to the existence of Chen Dong'e, in order to deal with this high-level zombie, Huang Shang installed a number of bonfire stands inside and outside the base, but he did not expect that they would work in this situation.

But the number of torches is limited, so during the day they take away those survivors who are unable to maintain night lighting but are willing to go with them and take care of them together.

Those who stayed here now all chose to stay for various reasons. But Huang Shang could not help but be responsible for their safety. No matter what their situation was, she would place a torch in front of their house, and there would also be patrols patrolling the base.

The patrol team led by Huang Shang would meet with other patrol teams, but after the other party nodded to their team, they would separate from them and go into the darkness again without saying a word to them.

At the same time, players also received game notifications.

Players have obtained the recipe for making torches. They can make torches by completing tasks and obtaining related items. The torches can allow them to walk safely in the dark.

The torch burns brightly in the hand, and the person holding the torch becomes the light walking in the darkness.

The feeling of having to walk independently away from the group made the player He Yu feel a little uncomfortable, but she still held the torch tightly in her hand.

Xun Hanxuan has fewer people to take care of, and as a chamber of commerce rather than a base, the things she needs to prepare are relatively many and diverse, so she does not need Huang Shang's help.

However, Huang Shang also placed a torch outside Xun Hanxuan's Chamber of Commerce residence. The torch symbolizing friendship burned quietly outside the Chamber of Commerce.

The tasks assigned to players in the game are closely related to the environment they are in. He Yu's task is to follow the Chamber of Commerce patrol team [patrol the outer perimeter of the Chamber of Commerce at night], and then [go out with the Chamber of Commerce team when day comes to provide support for the Chamber of Commerce branch]

This is the situation at the Huangshan base where there are no immortal trees or immortal people. It is relatively convenient for Zhu Ruxing.

The undead can dispel darkness over a large area, allowing them to walk freely in the darkness. The group, who had been delayed for a long time by the rainy season, can finally move forward again.

Pei Buzhou and Feng Mingshi, who stayed in the base, also began to lead their people out of the base, but they were heading to the Huangshan base, which was the result of their discussion.

Her mission is to [rush to the secret base] and [discover the secret of the zombie virus]

What the game gives out is more of a clue than a mission, and the game knows their situation very well.

This is normal, if this is really just a game.

"Customer service, can you really know what I'm thinking?"

[Of course]

"Then I'll think of a question in my mind, and you try to guess what it is."

【Can】

After a moment, Customer Service 147 fell silent.

[.....Are you serious? ]

Zhu Ruxing affirmed: “Yes.”

[Then I can answer you, the answer to the question is - no]

The moment she heard the answer, Zhu Ruxing stood there in a daze. The answer was obviously the same as what she had expected, but she didn't know how to react.

[I really didn't expect you to ask this question. I thought it was about this world.]

As a result, Zhu Ruxing took a big detour and asked a question that was unexpected but was within the answer that Customer Service 147 would give.

What made you doubt?

[From your reaction, does it seem like your mental preparation is not sufficient, or is it because you still don’t believe the truth of the matter?]

[I hope you can figure it out sooner. Anyway, what you think has nothing to do with me.]
