“That’s actually a good idea.” Yu Hong nodded in agreement.
“By the way, have you received any intelligence updates recently?” he suddenly asked, thinking of the long-silent Whisperer. Two weeks had passed, and in just a few more days, his self-recovery Rune Array would be fully strengthened. If Whisperer returned during this time, it would be dangerous.
“As we predicted, that ghostly thing has moved elsewhere. One of the smaller strongholds was affected, and hundreds of people died.” Li Runshan sighed. “Now the higher-ups have started planning stronghold mergers because they’ve realized that as the nights grow longer and the days shorter, the scale and danger of the Black Disaster are also steadily increasing.”
“I’ve noticed that too. The days are getting shorter—I thought it was just a seasonal change.” Yu Hong frowned.
“Of course not. The change is far more drastic than normal seasonal variations.” Li Runshan sighed again. “By the way, have you given any thought to my previous suggestion? About establishing a ring of strongholds centered around you?”
“At this rate, let’s just focus on keeping ourselves alive first. Why bring that up now?” Yu Hong was surprised.
