Night of Despair-Chapter 418: Operation 416 Four

"This is based on your Magic Skill, if we can confirm its effectiveness in cultivation, is it possible to pass it on to all other people?" Yu Hong continued.

"....So soon!" Ku Chan caught the piece of paper, initially glancing over it casually, but his eyes lit up the moment they landed on the extremely complex Array Map.

Being able to create his own Cultivation Technique naturally meant his understanding of Arrays far exceeded Yu Hong’s.

At a glance, he could tell that the Array on the booklet was cutting-edge and powerful.

"Yes!" Ku Chan couldn’t take his eyes off the paper, hastily responding, "This Secret Technique and the one I gave you are not on the same level at all, you can do whatever you want with it."

"As long as it’s useful."

Watching Ku Chan’s very happy expression, Yu Hong sighed and stood up to return to his room. He summoned the Black Ship and began officially relocating members of the Spirit Alliance from Hope City.

Aboard the Black Ship.

To not waste time, he also quickly organized the Eye Power Training Method from the Taoist Sect.

In Taoism, among the magicians, there were many ways of training one’s eyesight.

Yu Hong randomly chose a Training Method that protected eyesight and sat cross-legged on the deck, directly pressing his hand on the Method.

’Enhancing Hei Mu Method, direction: improve eyesight to see through the Source Disaster fog.’

A black line flashed, but as soon as it entered the Training Method booklet, it quickly receded back.

’Training Method lacks necessary base functions,’ Black Mark provided feedback.

"This is a bit tricky," Yu Hong thought. He did not possess any Magic Skills that could train the eyes to extraordinary capabilities.

"Then let’s change the approach. If I enhance an eye to the utmost limit, would special functions emerge along the way? Then, based on these new functions, carry out selective strengthening by pruning."

Immediately, a direction became clear in Yu Hong’s mind.

’It seems that random enhancement is better to start with. Directed enhancement relies too much on base functions.’

Then, he stretched out his hand again, gently pressing his fingertip on the Eye Power Training Method.

’Enhance Training Method.’

This time, he didn’t specify a direction or aim for the ultimate enhancement, because the intermediary enhancements likely required continual research and adjustment, so he didn’t add any qualifiers.

The black line moved out again and entered the Training Method booklet.

’Enhance Training Method?’

This time it was indeed successful.

Yu Hong looked at the countdown that appeared, 2 hours and 11 minutes.

’Just a basic enhancement, it seems it won’t take too much time.’

He confirmed his agreement.

Immediately, the countdown blurred slightly and began to count down bit by bit.

Yu Hong kept his hands moving without stopping. When the Black Ship arrived at the camp, he started arranging for people to board the ship continuously.

The first batch to pass through was the core members from the Spirit Alliance and Qingchen Temple. They rushed back as soon as they received the news.

People like Yu Hen, Yu Mo, and Headless Sword, each with hopeful hearts, boarded the Black Ship, heading to the New World.

Following closely were many elite representatives from Hope City.

Upon receiving the news and after confirming that a place to migrate had indeed been found, Chen Yaofeng even sent people to verify it back and forth. He quickly released this great news, a sign of hope.

Instantly, all of Hope City was boiling with excitement.

The attack of the Cold Disaster had already caused Hope City to gradually begin to lose hope for the future, slowly entering a stage of decadent waiting for death.

But now, this news was like a shot of adrenaline, instantly sweeping away the despondency of Hope City.

To lay claim to new territory first, Chen Yaofeng carefully selected the city’s most elite Enhanced Human Mages to form an exceedingly powerful Enhancement Technique troop and named it the Black Light.

The meaning was simple and clear, representing light in the darkness!

The Black Light Army totaled three thousand four hundred people, and the number was still increasing.

After transporting members over from the Spirit Alliance Qingchen Temple and others, Yu Hong immediately rushed to Hope City and formally saw this newly-organized formidable troop.

Snowflakes danced in the air, and around the entirety of Hope City, huge ice pillars hundreds of meters in diameter had been erected at some unknown time.

The pillars were faintly merging with each other as if they intended to completely freeze and seal the entire city.

At that moment, beneath one of the ice pillars on the open ground.

The mountains that were previously surrounding the area now had a spacious entrance opened up.

Troops wearing black, heavy-duty reinforced suits, their heads completely hidden within solid bulletproof helmets, were standing neatly lined up on the ground.

Everyone was uniformly equipped with two hefty battle axes on their back, carrying square brown oxygen packs, with the surface of their suits engraved with traces of white stone Technique Arrays.

Chen Yaofeng and Yu Hong were standing inside an armored vehicle, slowly inspecting these three thousand-plus men.

"This is the last crystallization of our fervent hopes in Hope City! The strongest force!" Chen Yaofeng said proudly, pointing at these men.

"According to the strength classification you provided, every member of the Black Light Army has close to two tons of physical explosive strength, nearly reaching the War Level Dao Breath, and on the magic side, each has skillfully mastered the basic hexagon series, that is, offensive, defensive, and evasive, two Techniques of each type within these three directions."

"How is actual combat?" Yu Hong nodded, looking at this group of tall soldiers each standing two meters high. Even now, he still felt somewhat astonished.

Because he could sense that every person here exuded a thick Dao Breath.

That level of Dao Breath was basically at the Sixth Layer of Guanwu Skill, close to the Seventh Layer.

The Seventh Layer is commonly known as the Temple Master Level, which is to say, among those present, there were over three thousand experts, nearly at the Reserve Temple Master Level like Zheng Ming and Zheng Ying!

This isn’t even considering their physical strength and the amplification of their Spirit Light.

"Without counting Spirit Light, these soldiers possess several times their current strength when it’s included. According to expert evaluations, they should be on par with those Dragon-men in Golden Armor you’ve encountered during the Spirit Disaster, the ones that don’t use their static abilities," Chen Yaofeng said proudly.

"What about Temple Master Level? That is, War Level, how many do we have now?" Yu Hong nodded and asked again.

"If by pure Dao Breath cultivation, there are currently no Temple Master Level experts within Hope City. The difficulty of reaching the Seventh Layer of Guanwu Skill is too high, and there hasn’t been enough time for cultivating it. However, the current situation is already incredibly impressive, the remaining Black Disaster can no longer pose a threat to our surrounding safety. Even the Black Giants can be easily grinded to death through a group attack, without worrying about them regenerating," Chen Yaofeng excitedly talked about this topic.

"How about Yiyi? How is she doing now?" Yu Hong inquired.

"Her cultivation of the Guanwu Skill is slow; this Cultivation Technique requires strong comprehension ability. Now that there are many powerful Enhanced Human Mages, she doesn’t need to go out on missions as often, so she’s mainly staying in the city to learn various basic academic subjects," Chen Yaofeng explained. It was clear he had always been keeping an eye on Lin Yiyi.

"Very good," Yu Hong nodded, "Prepare the Black Light Army to move out first, then send the Tactical Nuclear Force over. We need to establish a firm foothold as quickly as possible, then through negotiations, localized wars, and other means, establish our own security zone."

"Understood! It is just a pity that your ship can only carry a hundred odd people at most. Moving at this pace, who knows when everyone can be transported," said Chen Yaofeng somewhat helplessly.

"Don’t worry. Once I am free, it’ll just be half an hour back and forth, and twenty trips a day is no problem."

"That’s only two thousand people a day," Chen Yaofeng shook his head.

"Twenty thousand in ten days, two hundred thousand in a hundred days, what more do you want?" Yu Hong was speechless.

"Just joking, Master Yu, don’t be angry," Chen Yaofeng said with a smile, patting his shoulder.

"Still, we do need a bigger and faster means of transportation." Yu Hong also understood that such slow progress was a waste of time.

"Our current plan is to establish a forward base as soon as the Black Light Army arrives. According to intelligence sent back from Fista, in Mana City there are only about eighty thousand regular army forces that could pose a threat to us, and now this army is already indirectly under our control. So all dangers are basically ruled out," Chen Yaofeng continued with his slightly excited analysis of the future arrangements.

At this point, Yu Hong had already taken a step back and sat down on the leather chair, listening while he took out the Eye Power Training Method that was about to finish enhancing.

There were only two minutes left on the countdown, so he quietly put it back and waited.

About three minutes later.

Without a sound, Yu Hong felt a cold sensation coming from his hand holding the piece of Training Method.

The piece of paper he was pinching the second before seemed to have become another cold object the next.

He gently took out the item for a look.

It was a rolled-up black sheepskin scroll.

He slowly unrolled the sheepskin, on which were written rows of slightly sloppy Chinese characters.

The title on the top was simple — ’Eagle Eye Training Skill.’

Yu Hong skimmed through it, and found it was a special Training Method specifically for enhancing powerful eyesight.

The origin was from an obscure ancient tribe called Tengfang.

The method itself was simple, entailing five steps, each requiring a minute of focused gazing at a corresponding special pattern on the scroll.

Repeat ten times daily, and after persevering for ten years, one would see significant improvement in eyesight.

’No wonder it’s worth only two hours with such a long duration.’

Yu Hong wasn’t fazed; he started practicing gazing at the patterns according to the record, feeling the effectiveness was not bad, and his eyes seemed brighter.

He then took out a blue bottle of eye drops he had prepared from his pocket.

’Pearl Eye Moisturizing Liquid’, the name was similar to the Pearl Brightening Eye Liquid he had used before, and the effect was to moisturize and brighten the eyes. It was also why he had randomly chosen this one when picking out eye drops.

’The Cultivation Technique is ready; now for the medicine to accelerate cultivation.’

He held the eye drops bottle in one hand.

’Enhance eye drops, direction: Strengthen recovery from eye fatigue and damage.’

A black line flashed, flowing into the bottle of eye drops, and a countdown slowly appeared: 24 minutes.

At the prompt, Yu Hong affirmed his response, and the enhancement began promptly.

Yu Hong then continued to practice the Eye Power Training Method.

Before long, after the armored vehicle finished its patrol, Chen Yaofeng also led the team back towards Black Wind Camp.

Halfway through, Yu Hong was still sitting in the vehicle, his eye drops completed enhancement before reaching the camp.

While chatting with Chen Yaofeng, Yu Hong took out the eye drops to examine.

’White Dragon’s Tears.’

The name of the eye drops had changed, turning into a palm-sized blue perfume bottle.

There was an instruction sheet underneath.

’Derived from a special scarce herbal ingredient named White Dragon, it works wonders on eye fatigue and injuries. The potion formula is from Sky Wish Sect’s Nine Orifice Dragon King, a best-selling flagship product sold outside the Sect.’

"...Changing from Infinite Demon Palace to ripping off Sky Wish Sect this time?" Yu Hong was at a loss for words.
