Epoch of Twilight

Chapter 164: rest

Views:

Old Huang miraculously survived, but its condition was quite bad. Not only had most of its flesh and blood been bitten off, but even its internal organs were somewhat broken. White bones could be seen in many places. It looked like a skinned zombie dog. If it weren't for the food bricks made from the Terror Turtle eggs to sustain its life, there would be no chance of survival, but even so, it would be impossible for it to be unable to stand up in a short period of time.

The situation of the giant lizard was slightly better than that of Lao Huang, but not much better. With the injuries of the two beasts, they could no longer travel far, so Luo Yuan and others had to decide to rest in Jiaping City for a while.

Everyone quickly found a subway station. The subway is not only the city's bus artery, but also serves as an air raid shelter during wartime. Therefore, it is much stronger than ordinary buildings. Even if the city is severely corroded, the place is still roughly preserved. intact.

As soon as I walked to the door, a strong stench that had lingered for a long time hit my face, making people feel evil. There were bones everywhere. There were obviously survivors living here before, but now there is only one place left. Bones.

Because they have to live for a longer period of time, even people who don't care about the living environment can't tolerate staying with the stinky bones every day. So after checking for possible dangers, the first thing everyone did when entering the subway station was to clean out the bones.

Everyone moved very quickly, and after half an hour, all the corpses in the subway were thrown out. Although the smell of corpses was still very strong due to the lack of ventilation, as time went by and once the noses got used to it, it was nothing. In fact, to be able to find such a strong and safe residence in the last days, there is nothing more you can ask for.

Zhao Yali suppressed her fear and worked hard to finish all this. She almost staggered to a corner and sat down softly, shaking all over.

Luo Yuan had been paying attention to Zhao Yali and couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.

"Sister Yali, are you okay?" Luo Yuan walked over and said.

"It's okay!" Zhao Yali lowered her head and took a deep breath, and the trembling of her body stopped.

Luo Yuan was silent for a while, and said after a while: "You will get used to it from now on. If you are not used to it, you will get used to it if you see it more."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yali could no longer hold back and began to sob in a low voice, saying in a trembling voice: "But... I... I'm afraid. I thought I was going to die today. Even Lao Huang... was about to die... I have been very timid since I was a child. I’m afraid of dead people, but just now I threw skulls with my own hands because I was afraid that others would look at me strangely.”

Zhao Yali's weak body trembled violently, and she vented incoherently: "I know I can't blame you, but I still hate you, why did you take me out? I'm just an ordinary woman, not like Wang Xia Guang, Huang Jiahui is so strong, let alone compare with Master Wang. I just want to live steadily day by day, instead of feeling like death is coming at any time every day."

Luo Yuan sighed. This road was too far away and too dangerous. Even he had survived several crises, not to mention ordinary people like Zhao Yali, whose lives were as fragile as glass and could fall at any time. Crush.

But Luo Yuan also knows that stopping is only temporary safety. In this fallen land, the more time goes by, the more powerful the mutant beasts become. Without the collective power of mankind, let alone compete with it. , even survival will be difficult, and only in the west can we be truly safe.

But for Zhao Yali, this is not a reason, because it is too illusory and far away, and she may fall down before she reaches the halfway point.

He was silent for a while and laughed at himself: "Maybe I am too selfish and should not have led you on a road that will inevitably lead to death. This time we will stay here for a while. When the time comes, if you really don't want to leave, I’ll just send you back to where you came from. I think they won’t do anything to you as long as Lao Huang is here!”

Zhao Yali stopped sobbing. She looked at Luo Yuan in shock. Only then did she realize that his face was no longer as green as before. It had become weather-beaten and calm, and his eyes were not as friendly as before and had become deep and distant. Seeming a little indifferent, she suddenly felt a little strange at this moment. It seemed that he was no longer the Luo Yuan whom she knew before who affectionately called her Sister Yali.

… … …

The next few days were uneventful. Not to mention the beast tide, even sporadic mutant beasts were rarely seen.

In order to ensure the safety of the surroundings, Luo Yuan went out several times during this period and visited almost half of the city. Except for a few scattered normal mutant beasts, he never found a puppet insect again. Obviously before The brutal battle made the puppet insect pay a heavy price. It no longer dared to approach Luo Yuan, a creature that could almost be called a natural enemy, and even fled the city far away.

Except for some small mutated insects and a few mutated beasts remaining in the distance, there are no other creatures in the entire city, and it has almost completely turned into an empty city. It is conceivable that before, the puppet bugs had completely dominated this city.

This situation makes Luo Yuan a little scared when he thinks about it. If it weren't for the crisis, his sword skills evolved into sword skills experts, and his momentum changed qualitatively. It would be impossible to escape from the city without paying a heavy price, at least the giant lizard and Lao Huang will never be saved, and except for Luo Yuan, everyone else's survival is also slim.

This made Luo Yuan pay more attention to the role of aura. In these days of experiments, Luo Yuan found that aura seemed to have the ability to suppress levels of pressure. Although he had not encountered a dark blue mutant beast, he was still recovering from his injuries. The specific situation of the monitor lizard and Lao Huang's experiments is still unclear, but at least the blue level has been able to completely suppress them.

This suppression is overwhelmingly effective.

Luo Yuan found that once all the momentum was released, the blue-level mutant beast completely lost the ability to attack. The specific manifestation was that it would kneel on the ground with all four limbs, its eyes were frightened, and its body was trembling. Even if it was slightly stronger or far away, it would immediately attack He turned around and ran away, completely losing his fighting spirit, as if he had seen something terrifying.

As for the weaker light blue level, fainting and even sudden death will occur.

The Bai level with even lower strength died without exception. Basically, once the momentum spreads, the surrounding area will completely turn into a place of death!

This discovery made Luo Yuan both surprised and happy. What he was happy about was that this aura was so powerful that he no longer had to worry about the attacks of the weak beasts. He was even more powerful when fighting against powerful creatures. It can be imagined that the original In an evenly matched battle, Luo Yuan suddenly burst out with momentum. There was no need to suppress it at all. As long as the opponent was slightly affected, the battle would be almost without suspense. Surprisingly, luckily I didn't test it in a subway station, otherwise a tragedy would have happened.

However, during the experiment, he also found that the qualitative change of momentum, while powerful, was not without cost. Its consumption of will and perception was greatly increased. Compared with before, the duration was greatly shortened, and it felt like turning on a faucet. The water flows rapidly, and in a short period of time, the spirit will feel exhausted, and it may even cause dizziness or even headache.

Of course, compared with the enhanced strength, these are just minor problems that can be ignored. After all, unless there is a beast wave, there is no need to continue to spread the momentum. As for spreading the momentum in front of everyone, as long as they train a few times step by step, they should be able to adapt slowly, and maybe they can also strengthen their will and perception.

Secondary attributes have always existed in a mysterious state, whether it is intelligence, perception, or will. Luo Yuan couldn't figure out their mutual connection. Compared with the intuitively expressed physical attributes, Luo Yuan could only rely on guesswork, because these three attributes vaguely pointed to the most difficult-to-determine existence of living things - the soul. With the current scientific level, There is no intuitive description or conclusive evidence to prove the existence of the soul. Everything relies on human imagination and speculation.

The secondary attributes of the system intuitively indicate in the form of data that there is some mysterious inner existence in the human body. Coupled with the predictability of various tasks and the ability to strengthen attributes. Luo Yuan guessed that the system might be a creation far stronger than human civilization. After all, there is no perfect theory that can perfectly support the existence of the system, and the time it takes to transform theory into practical technology means that at least Human beings will not be able to do this within fifty to a hundred years.

However, such speculation cannot change anything at all and can only cause trouble.
