There are actually many ways to bring light to this place, but Xiao Lingfeng doesn't plan to use them. After all, it would be too unscientific for him to have Jian Ning create an array to emit light.

Let's all figure it out together. Human wisdom is boundless, and we might come up with a perfect solution sometime soon.

Leaving the regimental headquarters, he walked slowly towards home. For a cultivator, this darkness had little effect. Xiao Lingfeng was incredibly grateful to have met Jian Ning, who had opened the door to a new world for him.

After practicing the cultivation technique, his life underwent a tremendous change. Many things that were impossible before could now be solved perfectly.

Many houses in this villa area have electricity, and the solar panels are still working normally, but everyone is probably a little panicked.

On the way back, I saw many people taking advantage of the rising sun to hurry out of their homes and head towards the regimental headquarters, probably to inquire about news.

"Awoo!"

Hearing the call, Xiao Lingfeng looked down and saw Huang Fugui sitting on Bawang's back. Its white fur had turned black, and he didn't know where it had gone to dig coal. Only its two big eyes were left rolling around.

The tyrant stuck out his long tongue and was panting heavily, probably because he had run quite a distance before returning.

"Stop going out all the time. Can't you see the weather has changed? Hurry up and go home. When Xiao Ning sees you covered in dirt, she'll start scolding you again."

Xiao Lingfeng lowered his head and said to Huang Fugui with a stern face.

It rolled its eyes dramatically. A little dirt? A bath will clean it up.

With a swipe of its paw, it pulled a dead mosquito from the storage bag hanging around its neck. It was as big as a sparrow, and its sharp beak was almost as sharp as a woodpecker's.

He tossed it to Xiao Lingfeng, and with a meow, the Tyrant took off running without looking back.

Xiao Lingfeng caught the giant mosquito and couldn't help but frown.

This is huge! When did mosquitoes mutate to this size?

And it's so unusual that they can still survive in such cold weather. Especially when they attack humans, their mouthparts make them even more aggressive.

If they gather together and attack the base, there's no way to stop them. This won't do; we need to go back and discuss with the commander how to deal with them.

Instead of going home, he turned around and went to the regimental headquarters with the mosquitoes in his arms.

Before Huang Fugui even reached his doorstep, he transformed into human form, covered in filth. As soon as he opened the door, he met Jian Ning's eyes.

He chuckled twice.

"I'll go take a shower now, and I'll be clean in no time."

"You know you're dirty? How did you get your clothes like this? Did you go and become a savage?"

You are not allowed to go out during this time. The eternal night is coming soon, and there will be no sun in the sky. I'm worried you'll encounter danger if you go out.

"I understand. Ba Wang and I ran to a small city. I didn't see the name, but it's in the south."

The place was flooded, swarming with huge flies and mosquitoes. I almost lost to the tyrant. But in the end, I, the young master, won. Look, this is my spoils.”

As he spoke, he took out another mosquito from his storage bag and threw it to Jian Ning.

"How can it be so big? Did it take growth hormones?" Jian Ning didn't catch it with her hand, letting the mosquito fall to the ground with a thud. She glanced down at it, also surprised.

"How would I know? If it weren't for the Fiery Talisman you gave me, so many mosquitoes wouldn't have been burned to death. Master, please draw me a few more, I've used them all up."

"Okay, go take a shower now. Can't you smell the stench?"

After hearing Jian Ning's words, Huang Fugui sniffed and realized that the smell on his body was indeed a bit strong, so he quickly ran upstairs.

"Auntie, is that a mosquito? It's terrifying!"

Sweetie ran out of the house at some point, peeked over, and stared wide-eyed in surprise at the huge mosquito on the ground.

"Don't touch it, it's probably full of bacteria," Jian Ning kicked the large mosquito out of the villa.

I threw some fire on it and burned it all to the ground. Then I went back inside and used a dust removal spell to replace all the air in the room.

In just a short while, Huang Fugui had finished showering and ran downstairs with his hair still wet.

"Sweetie, I brought you something fun. Come on, let's go to your bedroom."

"Really. Fugui, you're so kind. What is it? A doll?" Tiantian immediately forgot about the big mosquito earlier and followed Huang Fugui back to her bedroom.

"It's good that Fugui is back. Look how happy Tiantian is." Aunt Wang came out of the house, looked at the sky outside, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Xiao Ning, if it's always dark from now on, how will we live?"

"Mom, it's okay. It'll only last a few months, probably similar to the polar night in the Arctic."

"You'll get used to it after a while. Don't worry, no matter what happens outside, we'll definitely have electricity at home."

"That's good. Actually, in the past, before there was electricity, candles and kerosene lamps were enough for lighting. It's just that these things are nowhere to be bought now."

"If we can keep the electricity going, then it'll be alright even without the sun." Hearing Jian Ning's assurance, Aunt Wang felt a little more at ease.

No matter how much you worry, life goes on day by day. There's no other way.

After more than ten days, the sun spent increasingly shorter periods in the sky. The base brainstormed and implemented numerous countermeasures.

I collected a lot of rechargeable flashlights from the department stores in the county town, and I also went to the mountains to collect wood to make torches.

At the very least, ensure that even if there is no electricity in the house, there is still light to provide illumination.

As for the trees lining the road, they were even covered with glow-in-the-dark stones.

It is made by firing glass and fluorescent powder at high temperatures and then refining it.

It can glow for more than ten hours if exposed to natural light or artificial light for a period of time.

They even created many patterns, such as owls, rabbits, carrots, and kittens. These not only provided light but also enriched people's lives. Whoever came up with this idea was truly a genius.

Even Jian Ning had to admire it. The children even regarded it as a scenic spot.

The endless darkness wasn't so frightening to them anymore. On the contrary, after breakfast, they wanted to go out onto the street to see these little glowing animals.

Jian Ning was worried about Huang Fugui taking Tian Tian out by himself, so she had to accompany him every time.

The soldiers at the base weren't idle either; the large mosquitoes Huang Fugui brought served as a warning to them.

Not only do we need to guard against land animals, but we also need to find a way to keep these flying, aggressive animals away.

Mosquitoes can grow this big, so what about eagles? What would they look like after mutating? What if they ran out of food and started attacking humans? We can't afford to be complacent about these things.
