A speechless night!
The next day it was still bright, so the team set off again. Luo Yuan noticed that Wang Xiaguang's eyes were red and swollen, and her face was gloomy. She seemed to be aware of Luo Yuan's gaze. She raised her head and glanced at him with a complicated expression, then lowered her head and remained silent. Silent.
Luo Yuan stopped talking, and then turned into a sigh.
Half an hour later, everyone finally got on the highway.
Heavy trucks that have broken down or been knocked over can be seen everywhere along the way, but small vehicles such as cars are rarely seen.
Countless supplies were scattered on the road, including almost everything, including steel ingots, grain, machinery, instruments, and even a large number of guns and ammunition.
Before the complete collapse of the human situation, this highway was the only transportation artery connecting Hedong City with other places. Trucks flowed non-stop every day, day and night. But when a beast tide occurs, this area is also affected.
With so much ammunition, Luo Yuan naturally couldn't take it all away. He only took three boxes, hung them on the monitor lizard's neck and continued on the road. Now everyone had a shot, and it was all Type 95 military rifles. There was also a sniper rifle. It was unknown which soldier left it, but Luo Yuan threw it to Chen Xianfeng.
As for combat effectiveness, it may not even be as good as Luo Yuan. It can only be said that he can barely shoot, but it is still better than nothing. At least he can provide support during the battle.
The closer you get to the giant tree, the more you can feel the shock from the bottom of your heart.
Looking down from the highway, with its trunk as the center, huge and unimaginable knotted tree roots penetrate deep into the ground like angry dragons. The majestic force generated by their growth makes the surrounding terrain for several kilometers It has risen as high as a tomb, and all the buildings near the suburbs have collapsed. A large number of geothermal hot springs emitting high-temperature steam are spraying day and night, making the area shrouded in clouds and mist.
Even now, Luo Yuan can still feel that earthquakes are still happening there from time to time because of the continuous growth of the giant trees.
At noon, everyone rested for a while in the fortifications on the highway, and then continued on the road. When it was close to three o'clock, they finally entered the shade of the trees.
The sky has been completely blocked, and there is boundless green above the head. Only occasionally a few beams of sunlight penetrate the layers of leaves and shine on the road, forming fist-sized spots.
This is almost a world of birds, with countless mutant birds of all sizes perching on giant trees. All kinds of clear and melodious calls came and went, almost in a continuous line. Even the air has become extremely fresh, making everyone in it feel refreshed and even their physical strength seems to have recovered a lot.
If you don't care about the oppressive aura exuded by these mutated birds, the various colorful venomous insects on the leaves that look like pythons, and the various weird creatures that also live in the trees, this place is undoubtedly like a fairyland.
But no one among them was in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery. This is almost an independent ecosystem, with countless powerful mutant creatures living in it.
Feathers and bird droppings almost covered the ground, and there were also some mutant creature skeletons left after failed battles. It was like a rich treasure house, and Luo Yuan could find almost any grade of materials.
Luo Yuan picked up a few bright blue tail feathers that were almost two meters long. After becoming an evolver, he could vaguely feel the power of attributes. The power of the earth is thick, the water is moist, and these feathers contain a certain energy. With a light and spiritual power, he used an identification technique.
"Stormbird's Tail Feather"
"Rarity: Dark Blue."
"Weight: 30g."
"Additional ability: Balanced airflow.
"Evaluation: The Storm Bird is a strange mutant creature. It hates storms by nature. Whenever a storm comes, you can always see it chasing the storm. It is born with the ability to calm the storm, and this ability is completely reflected in its feathers. It has a small amount of wind active energy."
A hint of joy flashed across Luo Yuan's face. Except for the Zhanma Sword, all his other equipment was still at the blue level, which was a bit unable to keep up. He had wanted to upgrade for a long time, but unfortunately he could not find the right materials. I thought of it but found it here.
Luo Yuan paid more attention to the feathers on the ground, and then found a few more of the same feathers.
In addition, he also found several other dark blue-level feathers, but few of them had attributes. Only one of the six kinds of feathers had attributes, and it was fire-type, but Luo Yuan still put it away.
The west is located on the plateau, the air is thin, the temperature difference between day and night is huge, and it is very cold at night. In addition, these tents cannot keep out the cold. He may be fine because of his strong constitution, but ordinary people may not be able to. With such feathers, whether they are synthetic Whether it's a quilt or underwear, it's very suitable.
"Look, is there a fruit over there?" Cao Lin suddenly said with suppressed excitement.
Luo Yuan raised his head and searched for a while, only to see a fruit the size of a human head, dozens of meters above his head, hidden among the layers of leaves. The surface was green and red, very attractive.
But this fruit has obviously been targeted by someone for a long time. A huge green mutated bird stood motionless on a branch not far away like a stone sculpture. Its eyes were half-opened and half-closed, and its peripheral vision swept toward it over and over again. There, at the same time, he was vigilantly paying attention to the surrounding situation.
Since the end of the world, he has rarely seen plants bear fruit. Even the artificially cultivated corn in the past had a pitiful fruiting rate. Even with this huge tree, apart from this fruit, he could hardly see other fruits at a glance. Of course, Luo Yuan guessed that they might be hidden in the leaves.
For a fruit that can be targeted by such a powerful creature, you don't need to think about how precious it is.
Luo Yuan had a flash of emotion in his heart, but he soon restrained his greed. This giant bird with a divine horse was obviously not that easy to mess with. Besides, there were so many ordinary people here. Once a battle broke out, they would be there. A lot of people would definitely die. Luo Yuan didn't care about the others, but Huang Jiahui, Wang Xiaguang and Wang Shishi, any death or injury would be hard for him to accept.
At this time, he was shocked to find that the fruit suddenly matured at an incredible speed. From half green to red, it quickly turned into a bright red, and a strange aroma spread out.
"Stop looking, let's go to the fortifications in front." Luo Yuan said solemnly, feeling a little uneasy in his heart. This fruit is the source of right and wrong. Such a strong fragrance will probably attract other mutant creatures soon. He I saw that even the monitor lizard had raised its head and stared at the fruit above its head.
Affected by the fragrance, everyone's expressions were intoxicated, and they wished they could take a few more breaths. They were unable to react for a while, but at this moment, another giant red and yellow bird shot towards them like a sharp sword.
The next moment, a high-pitched eardrum-piercing scream came from above. Two giant birds kept biting and rolling in the sky, and even the air began to become extremely violent.
Only then did everyone wake up from a dream, their faces changed drastically, and they ran desperately towards the fortifications in front.
Luo Yuan ran a few steps and found that the giant lizard had not followed him. He was still looking up eagerly. His temples were suddenly beating with anger, and he quickly ran back, trying to wake it up, but something suddenly came to his mind. System mission prompt: "E+ level mission, capture the fruit of the Tianzhu tree!"
"Fuck!" Luo Yuan cursed secretly, and a bad thought suddenly came to his mind.
Sure enough, because the battle above was too fierce, one of the giant bird's wings accidentally hit the branch of the giant tree. The branch was quite strong and bounced a few times, but it didn't break! But the ripe fruit fell. The two fighting giant birds couldn't react in time. They could only watch it fall from the side. When they wanted to dive down, it was already too late.
The monitor lizard seemed to tremble with excitement, roared, spread its limbs and rushed towards the fruit, licked it with its tongue, and was swallowed by it.
Seeing that the situation was already like this, Luo Yuan had no choice but to accept the task. The next moment, a notification sound came from the system that the task was completed. This mission was completed at an unprecedented speed, almost completed immediately, but for Luo Yuan, this mission had not yet begun.
The dark blue green giant bird that had been waiting next to the fruit was furious. It screamed loudly, gave up on its previous opponent, and pointed its spear at the giant lizard that was stealing the food. In an instant, there was a strong wind in the sky, and giant birds fell from the sky like meteorites.
The giant lizard raised its head to the sky and roared again and again. Some time ago, the monitor lizard fought with other mutant beasts almost every day. It has accumulated rich combat experience and can be said to have experienced hundreds of battles. Watching the giant bird impacting down at high speed, it didn't panic at all. It wasn't until the moment when the giant bird pounced that it dodged its body and narrowly avoided the attack.
"boom!"
There was a loud bang.
The giant bird's claws flew into the air, scratching a hole more than two meters in diameter on the highway.
Luo Yuan was so nervous that he didn't even bother to read the system mission completion prompt. He hurriedly put the backpack full of short spears behind him on the ground. Seeing that the giant bird had not completely taken off, he quickly picked up a few and sprinted forward.
The high-speed moving body had turned into a series of afterimages. A second later, his speed had reached its peak. At this time, the giant bird was about to take off again. He shouted, all the muscles in his body expanded, and he raised his hands He raised his short spear and in an instant, he shot at the giant bird with all his strength.
The explosive power of the human body is not just strength, but the product of agility and strength. Luo Yuan is fifteen times that of ordinary people, and can almost be said to be a superman.
The powerful explosive force caused the short spear to break through the sound barrier in an instant, and a small cone-shaped sonic boom cloud even appeared at the front of the short spear.
In just an instant, the giant bird that had just flown into the air was directly hit by the short spear. The instantaneous momentum exploded on it like a bomb. At the same time, the terrifying impact contained in the short spear also caused the body to fly several meters, almost Knocked to the ground, it screamed in anger and flapped its wings, trying to fly again.
But then another short spear bombarded it, and a large number of feathers flew away.
Next, the short spears were like missiles, one after another, without stopping for a moment. Until the fourth one, the giant bird could no longer maintain its balance, tilted its body, and fell heavily to the ground.
Even if the rhinoceros had a strong defense before the end of the world, Luo Yuan was confident that he could completely penetrate it with his short spear. But facing this dark blue mutant bird, it was still not possible. Although it was a little embarrassed, except for a few feathers that had fallen off, there were no wounds on its body.
Its wings flapped wildly, and the high-standard concrete ground of the highway was constantly shattered by the flapping of its wings like brittle biscuits, with gravel flying everywhere. It tried to fly again, but it was already late.
The giant lizard pounced quickly and bit the giant bird's slender neck in one bite. The next moment, it rolled and tore like a crocodile, giving it no chance to fight back.
Whether it is before or after the apocalypse, no matter how ferocious the birds are, fighting with land creatures, once they land, it means death. Even though the monitor lizard was still one level behind the giant bird, it still had the upper hand at this moment. Under its terrifying bite force, the giant bird's slender cervical vertebrae instantly broke.
The giant bird's struggle at this time was just an instinctive counterattack.
A few seconds later, the giant bird's entire head was completely torn off by the giant lizard's mouth, and blood flowed freely. When the giant bird gradually became silent, the giant lizard stood up. Luo Yuan saw that except for a few scratches on its chest, there were no injuries on its body.
To the monitor lizard, those scratches were just superficial wounds that would heal within a few days.
The other giant red and yellow bird that was fighting just now had been circling in the sky. At this time, seeing that the green giant bird was dead, it finally flapped its wings and flew away.
Luo Yuan withdrew his gaze. This battle was unexpectedly smooth. From the beginning to the end, in less than half a minute, one person and one beast cooperated with each other, and a dark blue-level creature was killed. Unknowingly, Luo Yuan had become so powerful. .
This time, the monitor lizard had no interest in the flesh and blood of the just-dead giant bird. It walked to the side, roared non-stop, and stepped frequently with its limbs. There was a glimmer of light in its eyes, and its energy seemed to be full of energy. Almost overflowing, a little abnormally excited.
Luo Yuan then remembered that it had swallowed a fruit before. He didn't know what effect that fruit had, but it was obvious that this state must have been caused by that fruit.
He opened the attribute panel and found that the giant lizard had actually upgraded. This time, it received most of the experience, almost 80%. The large amount of experience directly upgraded it to one level. Then he looked at the status of the giant lizard. , strange words appeared on it.
"Evolving..."
Luo Yuan suddenly looked at the monitor lizard, with a hint of joy on his face. Unexpectedly, the monitor lizard had finally evolved.
