Chapter 63: Chapter 45: Dark Night Demon King, All Guts_2

A bunch of ordinary folks!

In the end, Ren Zhong shrugged, "Alright, if nothing’s going on, I’ll head out first."

He had to rush out of the town’s high wall gate before 9:55.

He had already investigated thoroughly; at 9:55, the elite Night Watchman would arrive at the gate.

As for the surveillance from the floating "Sauron’s Magic Eye" on the tallest lighthouse-shaped building in the town center, he was helpless.

After all, avoiding it was impossible, so if it saw him, so be it.

If he does get exposed and gets caught by the Hunter, he will just be more careful next time and change his strategy.

But he thought the possibility was low.

After all, 10 PM was just the regular sleep time, the real forced hypnosis was at 12.

Before 12, people were not entirely stopped from coming in and out, just very few did.

The wild ones’ fear of the dark was just an instinct for self-preservation.

He first headed to the squad courtyard located in the north of the city, opened the door, rode on his motorcycle, and then went to have a look at his house.

Compared to other shanty-style buildings in the Mumbai-style slums on the same street, Ren Zhong’s 5-meter by 5-meter two-story alloy structure house was as exquisite as a piece of art.

This was the true luxury home in the slums, a dreamland that countless wild ones would dream of just by looking at it, yet it only cost 13.3 bucks to build.

Thanks to the monitoring from the town center’s "Sauron’s Magic Eye," and also the fierce folk customs in the town, every wild one knew that those who could afford to build such a house were not ordinary people, their fists were tough, so when the boy was constructing the house, no one dared to cause trouble or rob.

But little kids didn’t understand these things, so the 1-meter-high area of Ren Zhong’s outer wall was covered with all sorts of graffiti in charcoal, spray paint, and other things.

The graffiti included pigs, fish, and other animals.

The best part of the artwork was a blue mountain range, with a half-risen blue sun peeking over the mountains.

The artist seemed to cherish this high-end "canvas" and put a lot of effort into painting.

The patterns of continuous blue mountains, a large blue sun, floating green clouds were complemented with lines and even qualified shadows.

Ren Zhong wasn’t sure if it was the sunrise or the sunset.

...

At 9:50, Ren Zhong’s electric motorcycle quietly passed through the town gate, straight into the not-so-depths of darkness.

The electric motorcycle raced at a speed of 110 kilometers per hour along the uneven dirt road formed by the trampling of many people.

Looking ahead, the sky cast down the silver-blue radiance of two half-rounded moons, illuminating the land.

Walking alone on the land, Ren Zhong took a deep breath.

This was the night, dreaded like a tiger by the wild ones.

But I don’t believe in this superstition.

The first landmark that distinguished humans from animals, the crucial first step of human civilization, was mastering fire!

The first time humanity controlled fire was not for cooking but for conquering the night!

Taking a sharp turn, he followed the route in his memory, heading towards Iron Worm Forest.

Moments later, a beeping sound came from the simple map on the motorcycle’s dashboard, indicating a low-power sensor alert.

It’s coming.

Ren Zhong on the bike slowly bent his right arm, reaching behind to grip the alloy battle blade hanging at an angle.

meters ahead, a First Level Ruined Beast, the Leaping Grasshopper!

Die for me!

...

At 5:45 in the morning, the distant sky faintly revealed the fish belly white color of dawn.

In the wilderness, a trail of dust roared from afar.

Riding on the bike was Ren Zhong, who battled all night.

At this time, his armor surface was covered with scratches.

Some scratches only had the paint peeled off, while some were as deep as a fingernail.

His helmet visor was also covered with web-like cracks on the sides.

Traveling alone was indeed far more dangerous than cooperating with a squad, and had much lower risk resistance.

Especially during the night when Ruined Beasts had visual advantages.

But Ren Zhong held up all night long.

The second-hand storage box on the back seat of his motorcycle, which Chen Hanyu gifted him for free, was filled with a total of 23 First Level Ruin Beast Crystal Chips, worth as much as 42 points. After deducting equipment repair costs and energy costs of 3 points, his net profit for the night was as high as 39 points.

He not only cleared the First Level Ruined Beasts he could handle from the road to Iron Worm Forest, inside Iron Worm Forest, and on the road to Rat Cliff Mountain but also expanded his search area.

Unfortunately, he temporarily couldn’t break through the Second Level Ruined Beast blockade in front of Rat Cliff Mountain, otherwise, Rat Cliff Mountain at night would be the real treasure trove.

It’s also a pity that he only had one motorcycle, couldn’t carry the corpses, so he had to learn from those wasteful professional teams, leaving behind the Ruined Beast corpses and only taking the most valuable crystal chips.

Besides, Ren Zhong had other intangible gains from the night.

Which was that he gained a deeper understanding of Starfire Town, Iron Worm Forest, and the area around Rat Cliff Mountain’s terrain and Ruined Beast distribution.

More than once he avoided the territories of Second Level and even Third Level Ruined Beasts, and more than once he encountered danger.

He was constantly walking on the edge of a knife.

But in summary, he held up.

...

At 6:30 AM, the sleepless Ren Zhong, wearing full gear, met with the rest of Zheng Tian’s team.

Everyone was shocked to see Ren Zhong looking battle-worn.

Ren Zhong casually made up an excuse, just saying that he had a sparring session with a friend last night, and it got pretty intense.

The group was enlightened.

Not surprising for a Citizen, even sparring would damage the equipment, so extravagant, and the sparring must have been intense.

After a discussion, Zheng Tian proposed to delay their departure by an hour and a half, letting Wen Lei repair Ren Zhong’s equipment first.

Ren Zhong was happy with that, using the excuse to use the wrist watch to check some information online, planning to find a room in the courtyard to rest.

As he just took off his helmet, Zheng Tian saw a faint dark circle around his eyes, indicating dark circles.

Dark circles were a rare sight in present times.

Zheng Tian was surprised and moved closer to say sincerely, "Brother Ren, life is good, but take care of your health too!"

On this timeline, Ren Zhong didn’t give Zheng Tian the chance to try and help him bathe.

So Zheng Tian was never rejected, and with the various misunderstanding "misleading" in these past few days, her conversational style in this regard became more bold.

Ren Zhong: "..."

In the end, he laid down pretending to browse the internet, but did not turn on the hypnosis mode, and fell directly into sleep.

At 8 AM, Ren Zhong forced himself to wake up, and with the other team members, began another whole day of hunting.

Was Ren Zhong tired?

A bit.

But he had an accurate judgment of his own condition, knowing that with his current Physical Index exceeding 27, he could definitely handle moderate overload operations.

Besides, for those in research, who doesn’t have a liver of steel?

If you haven’t pulled three to five all-nighters in a row, you can’t call yourself a techie.
