A Night of Desperation-Chapter 580: Thinking Path 2
"Any spatial entity has a time attribute. The essence of the time attribute is the quantification of the speed of change of all things within the space. If an entity moves suddenly from a place with a fast time speed to a place with a very slow time speed, this huge disparity will cause immense discomfort to the entity itself, resulting in phenomena such as collapse, disintegration, and structural restructuring. We, because of our high cultivation and strong physique, just fainted, which is already a very good result," Yu Hong explained.
"I see. No matter what this place is, first understand the situation, then quickly replenish vitality to ensure cultivation," Quan He said in a serious tone.
"Okay." Yu Hong nodded and swiftly used his divine sense to feel the safety of the safe house at this moment.
Black Black Spirit had completely integrated into this world and this city, becoming the houses connected on the second, third, and fourth floors of this old residential building.
The previous safe house structure had entirely fused into this ordinary gray-white small building.
Click.
Yu Hong turned the doorknob of the safe house and slowly walked out.
At this moment, he had already reduced his body size and changed into a simple gray T-shirt and black casual pants. All abnormal signs and marks on him were hidden with magic.
He planned to go out for a stroll and see what the condition of this city was.
Quan He temporarily decided not to leave. She was in the room adjusting the radio and television previously stored, intending to gather some information through wireless signals on this world’s network.
The two collaborated, one openly and one secretly.
Bang.

Yu Hong gently closed the door and glanced at the old gray concrete stairwell.
The stair railing and walls were covered with red, graffiti-like small advertisements.
He was standing on the second floor;walking a short distance down the stairs would reach the ground floor.
"Huh? No one was here yesterday. Brother, did you just move in?"
Before Yu Hong could go downstairs, he saw a young man with yellow hair holding a basketball, standing at the staircase entrance, looking at him in surprise.
"Yes, I just moved in today. I’ll probably stay for a while, sorry for the disturbance." Yu Hong revealed a natural smile. Language for him now could be solved with a small magic trick, which not only translated but also made people unaware.
"You’re too polite, brother. Did you add the phone number of the building manager? Don’t forget it. It’s pretty strict outside now," the young man kindly reminded.
"Yeah, got it. Thanks for the reminder."
Yu Hong walked down the stairs and stood in the bright sunlight, basking in it. He felt warm all over;although it was just a little bit of radiant heat, the feeling was warmer than being in flames.
Behind him, he heard the young man opening the door upstairs. His divine sense perfectly captured the young man’s every move, naturally presenting it in his mind.
This young man happened to live in the unit directly opposite the Black Black Spirit’s front door.
Yu Hong followed the sidewalk, walking slowly in the sunlight.
People passed by him, now being noon, the aroma of food wafted from somewhere, making one’s mouth water. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Yu Hong strolled leisurely on the street. Unconsciously, he walked through the snack street and past the clothing district.
He hadn’t returned to normal human society for a long time. Seeing the messy shops on the street, he couldn’t help but feel a slight urge to go in and re-experience life.
’This seems to be a very ordinary natural human planet...’ Yu Hong gradually concluded as he walked.
’The technological level is much lower than before the Black Disaster broke out in the Hope City World.’
But...
"Quickly disperse!"
"Disperse! Move out of the way for idle people!"
Suddenly, a sharp shout came from afar on the street ahead.
A convoy slowly moved along the street, heading towards them.
All the vehicles in the convoy were uniformly black, totaling only five cars. The central car had its window open, and inside was a strange armored man, fully dressed in black armor with blue glowing eyes, sitting upright in the back seat, watching the passing pedestrians.
"It’s a Yinluo person!"
"Aren’t Yinluo people only seen in special districts?"
Seeing the armored man, the surrounding people looked alarmed.
"What about the Empire’s army? Isn’t this area not a occupied zone?!"
"The army had been completely defeated long ago. Since the co-governance treaty was signed, many resistance officials were executed for war crimes by the government... Now they should be welcoming the Yinluo envoy to the embassy..."
Yu Hong’s divine sense instantly reflected the multitude of whispers around him.
He saw the surrounding people bow slightly, not daring to look directly at the Yinluo person as they passed by.
He quickly mimicked their actions, blending in with the crowd.
Fortunately, the Yinluo person did not pay much attention to him, just looked around for a while, then closed the car window and drove off.
Yu Hong quietly scanned the other body with his divine sense.
’Such strong quality!?’ Yu Hong was slightly surprised upon receiving the feedback.
The body quality of this Yinluo person was equivalent to more than ten times that of the average adult.
After the convoy drove away, Yu Hong wandered around the street for a while before arriving at a newsstand.
Picking up a newspaper, Yu Hong keenly discovered something amiss.
"Yinluo Warship Successfully Liberates Capital Xu Ning," "Thirteen Articles of Friendly Cooperation Between Humans and Yinluo Civilization," "The Mystery of Evolution: Seven Key Principles of the Powerful Yinluo Civilization"...
A series of news articles were all about Yinluo people.
Moreover, all were flattering and cautiously supportive.
Yu Hong flipped through it and quickly found a notice, "Regarding Yinluo Hastar Regional Administrator Officially Taking Over Linglong Empire Law Enforcement Authority."

’Has it been completely crushed?’
Yu Hong guessed the situation.
In his Divine Sense, the physical qualifications of humans here were very ordinary. And the Inlorian who just passed by was far stronger, not to mention the armor he was wearing.
Putting down the newspaper, Yu Hong tried cautiously to release his Divine Sense, starting to scan the entire city area centered on himself.
But as soon as he started, he felt something was wrong. Above the city, there was a powerful invisible wave covering the area.
The Divine Sense touched it slightly and immediately retracted.
Yu Hong’s face slightly frowned. He hurriedly and quickly left the place, disappearing into the depths of the alleys between the buildings in no time.
A few seconds later.
Shush!
A blue light flickered, and a blue-eyed Inlorian wearing black-gray armor appeared at the spot where Yu Hong had just stood.
’He has already left. Or maybe, it was just an illusion?’ This person said in a deep voice.
’It should be an illusion. This planet is full of inferior humans. There is no so-called individual who can threaten us.’ Swish, another Inlorian figure appeared.
The appearance of the two made the surrounding crowd quickly scatter and leave.
No one dared to make a sound. An elderly man didn’t have time to hide in the stairwell.
Shush!
One Inlorian raised his hand, launching a transparent air cannon.
Pop.
The air cannon directly punched a large hole in the old man’s forehead, and he fell to the ground dead.
This time, there were finally screams.
More people started to run frantically into the distance, leaving the once bustling street empty in a few blinks.
In the distance, Yu Hong observed everything, making some judgments in his mind.
He quickly returned to the safe house, where Quan He was holding a printed document, rising to hand it to him.
’You came at the right time. This document is information about the Inlorians I found on the internet.’
Yu Hong took the document and quickly scanned it.
’Aliens colonists... openly announcing that they are looking for something?’
The document clearly printed some purposes and physical abilities of the Inlorians.
’These aliens, have they really come all this way just for some Nether Sand Mine?’
’Mining should be an excuse,’ Quan He shook his head. ’The Inlorians have left behind forces on Flame Star. Their biochemical armor cannot be pierced by even the most powerful human cannons and missiles. The technological disparity is too great.’
’We can’t worry about so much. What about vitality? Have you found a way to replenish it?’ Yu Hong asked.
’I understand somewhat why we’re here. The Inlorians’ top technological achievement, known as Life Armor,’ Quan He explained.
’The Inlorians descended on Flame Star with three large ships, suppressing and crushing all active forces of the three major nations, wiping out the resistance forces several times over while the opponents didn’t even manage to make a few injured. The sheer power of technological disparity allowed the Inlorians to completely control Flame Star within a week,’ Quan He said. ’Humans simply cannot defeat the Inlorians on their own, which led to the emergence of the surrender faction. Some of their leaders, because of their excellent performance, were rewarded with Life Armor by the Inlorians, making them puppet government heads managing Flame Star for the Inlorians.’
’There’s a phrase circulating among the resistance faction online: "Only by mastering Life Armor can there be hope of defeating the Inlorians."’
’Life Armor...’ Yu Hong realized the key.
’Yes, I checked. This thing can instantly modify genes and integrate into the body to modify the whole body. It’s likely the source for our vitality replenishment,’ Quan He nodded.
’Don’t rush. We need to understand these Inlorians thoroughly first. Acting rashly now, we don’t have the City of No Light as a retreat route,’ Yu Hong said gravely.
’Understood!’ Quan He wistfully recalled the days on the Mining Star, when they didn’t need to worry about vitality and just focused on cultivating.
’By the way, I found out that although the official governments of various countries here have been fully taken over, the local people have not given up resistance. They organized a human liberation organization named the Tower of Dawn, attempting to resist the Inlorians through stealing and seizing Life Armor. Maybe...’
’You mean, contact the Tower of Dawn?’ Yu Hong asked.
’Yes,’ Quan He nodded.
’Don’t rush. We are newcomers. First, we need to determine the technological and power level of the Inlorians. When I tried a Divine Sense scan earlier, I found a massive invisible wave covering everything above. I suspect the Inlorians are monitoring the place at all times,’ Yu Hong said in a low voice.
’We need to test it out,’ Quan He understood.
’Do you have an idea?’ Yu Hong asked.
’As I said, through the Tower of Dawn, we subtly assist them... use them to test the Inlorians,’ Quan He said.
’Feasible.’
’We are just short of staff now. We can’t handle everything by ourselves,’ Quan He said.
’Leave it to me,’ Yu Hong smiled. His Extreme Summoning could come in handy this time.
After thinking for a moment,
he waved his right hand.
A row of black-haired shadows standing straight appeared.
These were the lowest level of Black Disaster Illusion Summoning Bodies. With Yu Hong’s current cultivation, he could summon as many as needed.
Divinity Transformation Stage, theoretically, is powerful enough to annihilate a star.
This small trick was effortless for him.
’These can only be used for minor tasks. We need intelligent assistants,’ Quan He said helplessly.
’...That’s tricky,’ Yu Hong pondered, ’The Tower of Dawn is too prominent. This planet cannot be the only ones dissatisfied with the Inlorians. I’ll find a few more human resistance members and try forming a new Spirit Alliance.’
