The sun may one day disappear. What should humans do at that time? Let alone Luokas/Ge Zhao, even Suo Jian was confused about this.

After all, human civilization has never existed without the sun since ancient times. Whether it is hunting or agriculture, it is inseparable from the nourishment of the sun.

After the sun disappears, not to mention its symbolic significance to people in this world, when it comes to how to solve the problem of food sources, it is a big and heartbreaking problem.

What would happen without the sun? First of all, the original agriculture can be said to be completely scrapped, because plants need to rely on sunlight to grow.

As a result, not to mention crops, even ordinary plants will almost wither away, and the collapse of plants means the collapse of the lowest level of the food chain, which will soon extend to the upper levels.

First, herbivores became extinct due to lack of food, and then triggered a chain reaction of carnivores, making hunting impossible. So how can we survive in such a world?

However, Suo Jian himself actually understands that the answer to this question is also very simple, as simple as reasoning that the sun will disappear sooner or later.

Just like people subconsciously ignore the disappearing sun, everyone has also ignored the answer to this question until today's lightning shock event.

The person who spoke was Suo Jian. At this time, he felt that his throat was shaking a little, but Suo Jian knew that this would definitely happen and would not be changed by anyone's will:

"I'm afraid that after the sun disappears, the only...stable...long-term food source we can get...are the only things left..."

Suo Jian spoke intermittently and stammered. Some people didn't understand for a while, but those who understood were all silent, not daring to imagine such a future.

As the fourth natural disaster, Ge Zhaodu can clearly see through the game interface that with the occurrence of lightning and the sun, the hope value of Hope City has ushered in a wave of decline.

After all, none of the adults who have survived to this day are stupid. They know very well that in the eternal night, the only stable source of food is the terrifying monsters born in the darkness.

Those monsters do not need sunlight and will not be affected by it, and will continue to appear as long as darkness continues to exist.

Therefore, when the world enters eternal night, those monsters from the darkness are the only stable source of meat that humans in Hope City can obtain.

Just thinking about such a future, where you need to rely on those weird monsters to survive, suddenly makes people full of despair about the future, so it is not enough that the hope value starts to drop.

However, food is not the most urgent problem at the moment, because through the collection from the previous wandering era, the reserves will not be exhausted now.

But another job was imminent, so after most people fell asleep, people like Luokas/Ge Zhao and Suo Jian got together to perform a task.

At this time, they all held their torches high, and in a very tight formation, they came out of Hope City at a constant speed and walked slowly towards the depths of darkness.

"That's it," Luokas/Ge Zhao stopped the team, "If we continue to go deeper into the darkness, we don't know what dangers may arise."

So the team stopped here, and then Suo Jian and Ling Mengyu separated from the large army and walked out alone according to the previously agreed combat strategy.

The two of them walked deeper into the darkness with torches in hand. When they were a certain distance away, they stopped and looked back in the direction they came out.

Luokas/Ge Zhao and others also nodded, and then turned away warily, leaving their backs to Suo Jian and Ling Mengyu.

In fact, if you have played "Ghost Hunter", you will not be too unfamiliar with the "Cognition Tree" in "Forsaken Land", many of which are interoperable.

For example, the fewer people notice you, the easier it is to be targeted by non-human creatures. However, in "Ghost Hunter", it is a ghost, and in "The Forsaken Land", it is a monster.

However, people's wisdom is infinite, and they even relied on this to come up with a way to seduce monsters, that is, to artificially create this environment.

So just now Suo Jian and Ling Mengyu separated from the main force and stood in the darkness, and asked Luokas/Ge Zhao to turn their backs, just to attract the monster's attention.

So why did two people go? Because if only one person goes, unless his strength reaches a certain level, he will be pulled into the darkness and never be found again.

Moreover, the two Suo Jian's combat capabilities are not weak, and they will not be killed by monsters in an instant. Luokas/Ge Zhao and others are nearby and can rush over to support at any time.

Therefore, when formulating the battle strategy before, Suo Jian and the two of them were dispatched together. This would still seduce the monster, but the monster would not be that powerful.

In fact, based on my personal feeling, if a person steps into the darkness, what is seduced may not be a specific monster, but the darkness itself.

Suo Jian vaguely remembered that one of the archangels who betrayed the Sun God seemed to have authority over the night. This darkness might be related to the night.

Of course, the struggle of these strong men has nothing to do with Suo Jian, a member of the eighth sequence. At this time, he should concentrate on executing this plan.

When everything was ready, before even a moment had passed, Suo Jian clearly heard a rustling sound in the darkness.

Of course, he couldn't act immediately. After all, how could a fish lift the hook as soon as it approached? So you have to continue to wait patiently for a while.

After a few more seconds, it seemed that it thought no one had noticed him, so the thing suddenly became bold, and a sudden sound of breaking through the air came out.

This sharp sound seemed to be the signal to start everything. Suo Jian and Ling Mengyu took action in an instant, followed by Luokas/Ge Zhao and others who had been waiting for a long time.

The monster was not a powerful being. Faced with the premeditated siege by so many people, it was suppressed and killed almost instantly.

After the battle, Suo Jian and the two quickly returned to the team. After all, they were just weak monsters at the beginning, but it was hard to say what would happen if they continued to stay in the darkness.

Suo Jian, who walked into the crowd at this time, could see clearly what kind of monster it was that tried to attack him just now.

Generally speaking, the monster can still look like a human being, but it has various deformities and mutations on its body, making it look quite disgusting.

It had a long bird-like mouth filled with shark-like serrations, and its limbs seemed to have been torn off by some beast, and it was walking on the remaining parts.

But it doesn’t actually matter whether the monster is disgusting or not. What’s important is another point.

Suo Jian looked at the monster's belly, which was like a pregnant woman's belly, bulging out like a balloon.

Seeing this, Suo Jian couldn't help but smile. It seemed that he was lucky this time, and he managed to seduce the type of monster he wanted on the first try.
