"Go and call out all the ice and fire ability users. They will cover tonight's shift."
Yunfan's voice, carried by the cold wind, blew into the hall, and the team leader hurriedly went to call for reinforcements.
Soon, all the ice and fire ability users were standing by in the hall.
"It's too cold tonight, so you'll cover their shifts for now, and they'll make up for it later."
In addition, everyone who participates in the night watch tonight will receive an extra ten level-three attribute crystal cores and a meal allowance.
"Thank you, young master!"
Those who came with Yunfan were his own people, and they didn't complain when they were called up in the middle of the night to cover shifts. They didn't expect there to be an unexpected surprise, and they couldn't help but laugh.
"Alright, each team should consist of eight to ten people. Form your own teams."
Yunfan solemnly instructed everyone, "Remember, when patrolling, don't stray too far apart, and look out for each other."
"Yes!" the superhumans responded in unison.
Teams were quickly formed, and one team after another went out to patrol in the blizzard.
Yunfan stood at the door for a while, and after noticing nothing unusual, he walked over to the stove and sat down.
"Young Master, it's late, you should go and rest. We'll keep watch," the superhuman beside him advised.
"Since I can't sleep anyway, I'll stay with you guys for the night."
Yunfan took a case of beer from the locker next to him, chilled it using his supernatural ability, and then distributed it to the people present.
"Thank you, young master!"
The men's eyes lit up, and they accepted the beer, thanking them politely.
The cold beer flowed slowly down their throats and into their stomachs, instantly energizing the group of people who had been feeling a bit drowsy. They sat together and started reminiscing about some of the funny things that had happened earlier.
Time passed by, and soon it was five in the morning.
It was still pitch black outside, and the wind and snow continued to rage. Yunfan's unease did not disappear with the passage of time.
He got up, walked to the door, called the patrol team in to rest, and then went outside for a walk.
The snow outside the door had already piled up to more than half a meter high.
The normally wary mutant birds couldn't withstand the cold and had all taken refuge in nearby buildings to escape the chill.
Half an hour later, Yunfan returned to the hall covered in snow.
There was nothing unusual around him, so it seemed that the unease in his heart was just him overthinking things.
"Could it be that I'm just imagining things?"
Yunfan stroked his chin and muttered to himself as he walked towards his room, intending to rest for a while.
The other superhumans gradually got up and began their busy day.
Yunfan slept until noon, but the strange unease in his heart had not disappeared; on the contrary, it had intensified.
He tossed and turned, finally scrambling out of bed, deciding to trust his instincts, and strode out of the room.
"The space-type ability user immediately packed up all his belongings and retreated to the safe house."
The others are now in combat alert, ready to fight at any moment.
Although the superhumans didn't understand, they did as instructed.
The space-type ability users quickly stored their belongings in their spatial storage and retreated to the newly built underground safe house.
The other superhumans picked up their weapons, returned to their positions, and remained vigilant for any movement outside.
"What happened?"
Chu Hanying was surprised to be called out of her room.
"I don't know, but this is my young master's order. You are a space-type ability user, so come with us to the safe house right now."
"But--"
"No buts, come with me now!"
The girl who called out to Chu Hanying was an impatient person, so she simply grabbed Chu Hanying's arm and forcibly dragged her away.
On the other side, Yunfan had already sent a speed-type ability user to inform Giant Eagle.
The giant eagle responded quickly.
It directly dispatched ten level-five mutated eagles to await Yunfan's command.
At the same time, a group of mutated birds were sent out to investigate the situation despite the blizzard.
Two hours later, when everyone had relaxed their guard a bit, a rustling sound suddenly came from under the snow outside.
It looked like something was moving quickly through it.
"Everyone on high alert!!!"
Hearing this noise, Yunfan suddenly felt a sense of relief.
'Crunch crunch~'
A sound similar to rodents grinding their teeth came from outside the gate, followed by countless fist-sized, translucent oval heads poking out from under the snow.
Pairs of dark eyes stared intently at the building, sending chills down one's spine.
"What is this thing?!"
Someone gasped and instinctively gripped their weapon tighter.
"They are ants."
Yun Fan stared intently for a closer look, then said in a cold voice, his right hand enveloped in icy mist as a huge ice blade slowly took shape.
"These ants are huge!"
It is half a meter long from head to tail, and its body is translucent, like ice. You can vaguely see its internal organs, its beating heart, and the crystal nucleus in its head.
"Young master, shall we attack?" someone asked quietly.
"Wait a minute. If they don't attack first, let's not provoke them."
'Clang! Clang! Clang!'
'Clang! Clang! Clang!'
Several loud cries of eagles rang out from the sky; the mutated eagles were warning the mutated ants.
Yunfan clearly saw the mutated ants flinch, obviously afraid of the mutated eagle circling in mid-air.
'Chirp!'
Just then, a sharp, piercing scream came from somewhere, making people's eardrums ache.
As soon as the cry rang out, the mutated ants became agitated.
Some of them had even climbed to the gate, their antennae twitching rapidly, as if they were about to ram the gate.
The calls continued, and the frequency of the calls increased.
"Immediately pinpoint the location of the sound."
Yunfan turned to give orders to the hearing-enhanced ability user.
At the same time, he waved to the rear, signaling them to prepare to attack.
"Young master, go forward twenty meters at three o'clock."
The location of the creature that made the shrill cry was quickly determined, and the hearing-enhanced ability user rushed to report it.
Yunfan brandished his knife, his eyes cold, and said, "You all stay here and guard it. I'll go and deal with it."
His intuition told him that if he could deal with this howling, unidentifiable mutated creature as quickly as possible, the swarm of mutated ice ants would automatically retreat.
Otherwise, it will be a fierce battle.
