Chapter 60 Eternal Night
"To be honest, I am more concerned about the 'Eternal Night' that Song Yarong mentioned that covers the entire Shuzhou area." Sun Hang said.
This is the first time Sun Hang has come into contact with a monster whose serial number ranks among the top three, and it is also a phenomenon-type monster that is second only to the "Type A·Rule" in difficulty.
Although the serial number cannot completely represent the strength of a monster, any monster that can be ranked in the top ten, no matter which category it is, is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Every time a strange object with a single-digit serial number appears in human sight, it means a disaster is coming.
"The last time 'Eternal Night' appeared was in the 4533rd year of the lunar calendar, covering the entire Hexi Corridor area, plus most of Liangzhou." Ye Xuan said with a serious expression.
"4533? But Song Yarong told me that Yongye disappeared for one hundred and thirty years..." Sun Hang frowned and realized the problem, "Don't tell me that the 'Yongye' that appeared in 4533 lasted for a hundred and thirty years..." More than fifty years, right?”
"To be precise, it is fifty-five years, nine months and twenty days." Ye Xuan said, "It started on September 12, 4533 lunar calendar, and ended on July 2, 4589 lunar calendar. According to the literature, the whole river The West Corridor area has never seen the sun, the vegetation is withering, the plague is rampant, and poisonous insects and beasts are rampant. The four cities in Hexi - Xiliang, Suzhou, Ganzhou, and Shadu are empty of houses, and the number of refugees is in the millions. "
"This time, the 'Eternal Night' won't last for decades, right?" Sun Hang glanced at the night sky outside the cabin and whispered.
"I don't know." Ye Xuan shook her head, "The longest recorded duration of eternal night is more than three hundred years, and the shortest is only four months. There is no pattern to follow. In addition, there are As hunters, you must pay attention to something.”
"What?"
"During the eternal night, on any night with a full moon, the 'Yiliu Blood Moon' will inevitably appear." Ye Xuan said solemnly, "Therefore, according to the arrangements of the Disaster Countermeasures Committee, no matter what the combat situation is, on a night with a full moon, The day before, all monster hunters must withdraw from the Evernight Covered Area.”
"It seems that the commander this time is smarter than the bunch of losers in Tianfu City." Sun Hang commented.
"Continuing to send troops and hunters to stop the monsters is not a long-term solution." Ye Xuan said in a serious tone, "If the eternal night lasts for more than three months, the federation should start to implement an immigration plan to relocate the people in the Shuzhou area. Go elsewhere... If the eternal night lasts for more than a year, the plan to abandon the Shuzhou area will be put on the table."
"In other words, if we can't handle this matter, the area of human activity will shrink again, right?" Sun Hang said.
"It's not a question of whether we can handle it... but a question of how long the 'Eternal Night' will last." Ye Xuan corrected, "The only measure we can take for the 'Eternal Night' is to wait for it to disappear on its own. ”
"Then if Yongye appears in Chunming City, the federal capital, will you also abandon Chunming City?"
"Yes." Ye Xuan nodded
"Tsk... If Yongye covers the entire Xiazhou Continent, then we don't have to live anymore?"
"Theoretically, this is true." Ye Xuan said calmly, "Humanity's so-called defense line is actually too fragile."
Just when Sun Hang wanted to ask something, a sharp and harsh cry suddenly came from the city below.
"It's not a sound that humans can make." Wang Xiyi reacted immediately, "Hover in place!"
"OK!" Brother Black responded immediately, controlling the helicopter to hover in the air.
Everyone looked up and saw a bloated humanoid creature sitting on the rooftop of an office building. The terrifying cry was coming from this humanoid creature.
"Do you have a telescope?" Sun Hang asked. A member of the special operations team quickly took out a small and exquisite monocular telescope from his bag and handed it to Sun Hang.
With the help of the telescope, Sun Hang could clearly see that it was a creature that "suspected to be a human female" with a high bulge in the abdomen. Compared with her bloated torso, the limbs were extremely slender. This made Sun Hang think of the previous The skinny girl he met at the breakfast stall.
Messy and dirty long hair covered its cheeks, but purple and red corpse spots could be seen everywhere on its pale skin. There was also a rusty shackle on one of its legs. Half of an iron chain that was also covered with rust was connected to a shackle at one end, and the other end was dragged directly to the ground.
There is no doubt that this is a monster.
"Why did the strange thing appear here?" The team member who handed the telescope to Sun Hang whispered, "Has the defense line on the south side of the Chengnan Bridge been breached?"
"It should just be a fish that slipped through the net." Ye Xuan shook her head, "If the Chengnan Bridge had been breached, the Tianfu City area would have been littered with corpses by now."
"This weird thing... I found a file in the database that completely matches its characteristics." Yang Lian, who had been silent along the way, suddenly said.
"Oh? Is it a strange thing that has been discovered?"
"'Bing 634 Pregnant Girl'. It was discovered sixty-five years ago and was eliminated sixty-five years ago," Yang Lian said.
"Pregnant girl?" Sun Hang repeated the name, "You mean, there is actually a baby in its bulging belly?"
"Well, this weird thing was also involved in a murder case sixty-five years ago... The parties involved were a couple in love. After they got together for half a year, the woman discovered that she was unexpectedly pregnant... You know, in In that era, it was very serious for women to become pregnant before marriage. Not only will the woman be criticized by society, but the man's future will also be greatly affected. Driven by various factors, the man takes extreme measures to control his girlfriend and fake her accidental disappearance. ”

Yang Lian paused and continued: "A few months later, the woman had difficulty giving birth, so the man buried the woman and the unborn child together."
"...At first glance, it was confirmed that he was born pure and pure." Sun Hang complained.
"But what the man didn't expect was that although the woman suffered a lot of bleeding due to dystocia, she did not die on the spot, she just went into shock... Later, the sheriffs found signs of struggle in the grave where the woman was buried, and in the woman's respiratory tract A large amount of soil debris was also found inside, which means that the woman woke up after being buried alive - dystocia was not the direct cause of her death, but being buried alive was."
"Okay, if you say so, that man is even more of a beast." Sun Hang said, "But I am a little curious, how did this girl become a monster? Is it because of resentment?"
"This has not yet been clarified." Yang Lian continued, "In short, after she transformed into a strange creature, she dug a grave on her own, crawled out, sneaked into the man's home, and killed all six members of his family."
"What a death."
"After killing the man's family, the monster found the man's relatives one by one based on the distance of their blood relationship, and killed them with extremely cruel methods... When the monster hunters found it, it had already Four massacres were committed, with the total number of dead reaching twenty-one.”
"Tsk, it's really unlucky to have such a scumbag relative on the stall." Sun Hang sighed, "Then how was this weird thing eliminated later?"
Although the experience of the "pregnant girl" during her lifetime was very sad and infuriating... but in any case, since she had become a monster, she must be eliminated.
Otherwise, according to her logic of revenge, a large number of innocent people may suffer unreasonable disasters - after all, no one can guarantee whether there will be even a slight blood relationship between herself and the scumbag back then.
