Chapter 172: deterioration

There are no lights at night in the apocalypse, and there is also no entertainment.

When Luo Yuan and Zhao Yali came back, they were already setting up tents and getting ready to sleep. There were already many tents, and even if two were given to the group of soldiers, there were still three left, which was more than enough to sleep eight people.

Chen Xianfeng is excepted because there is no tent that can accommodate his height.

Before falling asleep, Luo Yuan walked to the corner where the food bricks were placed. After hesitating for a long time, he finally decided to leave three food bricks and picked up the rest and walked outside.

Under the moonlight, Old Huang curled up into a ball, motionless. In the past three days, its hair has still not grown out, exposing its knotted muscles. However, compared with the previous few days, all these large and small injuries have been eliminated. The scabs were scabbed, and the bloody misery was no longer the same as before.

As Luo Yuan walked in, its ears turned slightly, and the originally tense muscles suddenly relaxed.

It raised its eyelids, revealing a pair of eyes that were glowing in the night, and then drooped and closed them slightly, like an old dog that was about to die of old age, too lazy to move.

Luo Yuan stepped forward and spread out the package wrapped with food bricks.

As soon as the smell dissipated, it immediately became energetic, its eyes widened like a pair of round light bulbs, its body struggled even harder, and stood up with some difficulty. The tail that had been broken into half also began to sway happily. The whole dog's face showed an almost flattering smile.

Luo Yuan laughed. It was indeed a dog. Even if it became a mutated beast, it could not change the dog's habits.

He divided the food bricks into ten pieces and threw them in front of Lao Huang. This was a huge investment. Even Luo Yuan felt a little distressed. As long as one food brick contained enough calories to maintain the health of everyone except Luo Yuan and Chen Xianfeng. It is a day's consumption for everyone outside (excluding soldiers), not to mention that the high-level active energy it contains is a huge benefit and enhancement to the creature itself, and it is an opportunity for evolution for the mutant beasts.

Except for the first day, when Lao Huang unconsciously enjoyed so many bricks of food, he only ate three bricks a day for the other two days.

I hope it can be of some use, Luo Yuan thought to himself as he watched Lao Huang wolfing down the food bricks and the surrounding soil and gravel.

Then he turned around and walked towards another area. The monitor lizard and Old Huang were not in the same area. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Mutated creatures have far higher requirements for private space than humans. The distance between the two is a full kilometer.

When I came back, the package was empty.

The night was as dark as water, and the moonlight didn't know when it had risen. It had been completely covered by dark clouds, leaving only a blurry moon halo.

Luo Yuan looked up at the sky and sniffed a few times. The moisture in the air seemed particularly heavy today.

I'm afraid the weather won't be good tomorrow! There was some worry in his heart.

Rain will not only slow down the journey and lower morale, but also cause unnecessary trouble and danger. If you happen to encounter a thunderstorm, it will be even worse. After the apocalypse, there will be many dense forests, and people will become confused when walking through them. It was extremely dangerous and the entire team had to stop and rest.

Luo Yuan had no choice. Now he could only decide on the situation. If there was a thunderstorm, he might have to postpone it for a day.

He frowned slightly and finally sighed.

When walking into the subway station, Luo Yuan stepped slightly to remind others that he was back. He knew that if he had not come back, many people might not be able to sleep peacefully, including not only those close to him, but also Huo Dong and others. in this way.

The vigilance of people in the apocalypse is unimaginable before. Everyone who can survive to this day is more or less neurotic.

As usual, Luo Yuan walked to the door of the subway station alone and began to sit cross-legged in meditation.

In his current state, he had to sleep near other people, otherwise everyone would have nightmares.

If the aura can be barely controlled when awake, then once it falls asleep, it is completely uncontrollable. Every emotional fluctuation will cause drastic changes in the aura. What's more serious is that once Luo Yuan dreams, and it happens to be... If it's a nightmare, it wouldn't be surprising if a few people died when you wake up the next day.

In the final analysis, this is the result of Luo Yuan having just advanced and not being able to perfectly control his own power.

Momentum is mysterious and mysterious, but its foundation is nothing more than will and perception. Will is power, and perception is the source of support. A person with a weak will, even if he makes a fierce expression, will give people the feeling of being fierce and weak, but a strong will People like this, even if they stand there and say nothing, can still put pressure on people.

Therefore, if you control your will, you also control your momentum, and meditation is the best way Luo Yuan can think of now to control your will.

Of course, without the guidance of skills such as sword skills, these auras are all crude and have little power, just to bluff people. The sword technique makes the dispersion of momentum more efficient, precise, and more powerful.

A night of silence.

The next day, Luo Yuan, who was half asleep while sitting quietly, suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart and couldn't help but open his eyes.

The surroundings were quiet, except for the weird cries of unknown insects, which were still noisy.

It was still dark at this time. Luo Yuan looked at the time and saw that it was only four o'clock.

It was very humid at night and after sitting all night, he was already soaked to the skin, and his hair looked like it had just been soaked in water. He wiped his face and wiped away the water on his face. I looked up at the weather and saw that the sky was covered with dark clouds, as if they were about to collapse.

He stood up and moved his slightly stiff legs. Within a few seconds, the blood in his body returned to smooth flow again.

Immediately, he picked up the Zhanma Dao beside him and walked towards a dilapidated building in the distance.

This building was obviously a high-end office building before the end of the world. Even if it has been broken, the remaining part is still twelve stories high, making it the highest place in the vicinity.

The interior of the building was quite dilapidated. Even the stairs had fallen off in many places. In some cases, the entire floor had fallen to the next floor, leaving only a few twisted steel bars stretching helplessly.

But this couldn't stop Luo Yuan at all.

There were no stairs, so he jumped directly to the second floor. If there were no floors, he carefully stepped on the decayed walls and quickly crossed over with the help of steel bars and pits everywhere along the way.

Fourteen points of agility allow him to easily perform all kinds of incredible moves.

His movements are more flexible than that of an ape and gentler than that of a cat.

In less than two minutes, he was already standing on the top of the dilapidated building, staring into the distance!

The sky was still dark, and even with Luo Yuan's eyesight, he couldn't see very far. He waited patiently until the sky gradually became brighter and nothing strange could be seen. Could it be that the palpitations just now were just hallucinations

Luo Yuan had no choice but to return.

When they came back, everyone had already gotten up and started packing their things, but the soldiers were still asleep.

"Do you want to wake them up?" Huang Jiahui asked.

Luo Yuan looked at the time: "It's only five o'clock now. Let's set off at seven o'clock and let them sleep for another hour!"

"Hey, what's wrong with your neck?" When Huang Jiahui turned her head, Luo Yuan found that the skin on her neck was white and swollen, and quickly called him.

"What I was about to say, there seems to be some water seepage here! When I woke up, the tent was soaked." Huang Jiahui touched her neck and said a little depressed.

"Where, let me take a look?" Luo Yuan asked hurriedly.

The tent had been put away. Luo Yuan quickly walked to the location where Huang Jiahui placed the tent last night. Without looking carefully, there was already a large pool of water there. There were some cracks in the marble in this area, so the water completely seeped out in this direction. , but not elsewhere.

He dipped his index finger into it and tasted it.

His expression changed drastically, this is sea water!

He found that his previous inference was somewhat wrong. It was not that the flood season had advanced, but that it had just begun. Now the sea water had poured in, and some low-lying areas had already been affected. As the flood season reaches its peak, huge tides will flood the entire Jiangnan Province.

And this time will never be too long, at the latest it may be half a month, at the earliest it may be only a few days.

At this time, there was an exclamation from Huo Dong, and there was a kind of panic and despair in his voice: "Boss Luo, come and see, what is outside?"

Luo Yuan's heart tightened, he held the knife and walked out of the door quickly, and the others quickly followed.

Luo Yuan looked up and couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air. Countless small dots formed a black mass flying from the front in the distance, almost half of the sky was obscured.

It was impossible to estimate the specific number. The sight in front of him made his scalp tingle.

They were countless flying creatures. As they gradually approached, they gradually revealed their huge bodies.

These flying creatures do not belong to the same species, or even the same category. There are not only birds in the sky, but also a large number of insects, and even flying mutant beasts with wings. Some of them may be food of a certain kind, but they are flying in the same direction at this time.

As the distance got closer and closer, countless chirping sounds came faintly. After a while, the sound became louder and louder, resounding throughout the sky.

However, these sounds seemed a little panicked, more like whining.

This is an escape!

Luo Yuan's heart moved and he looked into the distance, his heart getting heavier and heavier.

… …

Half an hour later, the fleeing team finally flew across the sky, leaving behind a field of feces and people with lingering fears.

Luo Yuan's face was solemn and he said solemnly: "We can't wait any longer, everyone is shouting, we will set off immediately after dinner!"

If the area ahead is really flooded by the tide, then due to the speed of escape, this wave of fleeing teams is likely to be just the first wave, and next, they will face a wave of beasts.

And there’s more than one wave!

We must leave this place as soon as possible. If we can't win, we will face the impact of the beast tide, and if we stay, we will definitely die.

The soldiers were all woken up one by one. After sleeping soundly for more than ten hours, they had recovered most of their energy. Their condition was much better than when they first met yesterday, and their faces were rosy.

Time was running out. In order to rush on the road as quickly as possible, Luo Yuan gathered everyone together and briefly explained the situation to everyone based on his analysis and cruelty. Everyone's expressions changed dramatically!
