Chapter 1940: Chapter 1940: In the State of Eternal Night
âI do, I do.â
The inn worker looked at the Beast Pill swaying in front of his eyes and hastily nodded.
Earning money without having to work for it would be foolish, but he also knew that the Beast Pill was not for free; there was definitely something he was supposed to do in exchange.
âIf you have any commands, this humble one will certainly accomplish them for you,â he said.
âItâs very simple, Iâll ask you some questions, and if you answer well, this Beast Pill will be yours,â Yuu Rong said as he sat down at the table, placing the Beast Pill onto the surface.
âAsk away, my esteemed guest.â
...
The inn worker immediately leaned in closer.
Just by answering some questions, he could get the Beast Pill; it was like a pie falling from the sky, landing right in front of him.
If he didnât pick it up, then who would? He absolutely had to grab it.
âWe just came from Wulong Mountain, and we really donât know much about this plane. Why donât you start by giving us a simple introduction to the Eternal Night Plane,â Yuu Rong decided to not take the lead and would listen to what the inn worker had to say first, then see if anything needed to be added.
âYou came from Wulong Mountain? That is a splendid place.â
The inn workerâs eyes lit up with excitement; Wulong Mountain was a place where many wished to go but were unable to.
âEsteemed guest, this plane is called the Eternal Night Plane. Here, there are only two hours of daylight, and the rest of the time, four hours, is night time.â
âThe rest of the four hours? Does this plane only have six hours in a day?â Yuu Rong asked.
That clearly couldnât be true. Having traveled to different planes with Qian Jiyun, he knew that this place still operated on a twelve-hour system. How could it have changed to only six hours?
âNo, of course not. There are another six hours that are in Eternal Night condition,â the inn worker hastily shook his head. If a day only had six hours, that would be great, as it would mean they had more daylight to see.
But what was terrifying was the Eternal Night; outside, nothing was visible, and even oneâs sensitivity dropped quite a bit.
âDuring the Eternal Night, both people and demonic beasts cannot see anything beyond three meters. Even if they have a torch in hand, they canât see clearly.
Furthermore, when the Eternal Night Time arrives, a type of demonic beast comes out; they eat everythingâplants, animals, other demonic beasts, and even people.â
Thinking of the demonic beasts that rampage during the Eternal Night, he felt numbness spreading all over his body, draining his strength and even causing his speech to quiver.
âHowever, itâs still not too bad. As long as you have a torch, those demonic beasts wonât dare to come close. And in small towns like ours, the demonic beasts donât dare to come; they only hunt in pitch-dark places.â
Listening to him, Yuu Rong finally understood why Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue had mentioned the sensation of being watched by pairs of eyes before.
So it was those so-called demonic beasts.
âSince there are such demonic beasts, why donât you eliminate them?â he asked.
It wasnât only during the Eternal Night Time; during other times, it would be the perfect opportunity for humans to eliminate those man-eating demonic beasts. Surely they could be eradicated.
âIf they could be eliminated, would we just let them eat people?â
The inn worker stared with wide eyes, portraying a helpless expression. If it were possible, would they have not eliminated those man-eating demonic beasts already?
âThose demonic beasts, no one has ever seen what they look like. Everyone who has seen them has died. They donât come out during the day or the night, and no one knows where they hide; nobody has ever been able to find them,â the inn worker explained.
