The emergence of insects was just the beginning. Next, mutated creatures appeared sporadically from time to time.
These mutant beasts may be huge, ferocious and terrifying, or agile and docile, but most of them have one characteristic, that is, they run very fast, otherwise they would not be able to get ahead.
They were running in the wilderness and in the isolation zone, but few mutant beasts passed by the monitor lizards. Most of the time, they were clearly separated from each other and did not interfere with each other!
After all, the monitor lizard is not a weak and kind-hearted beast. Its huge size and dark blue level or even close to light green level pressure are enough to give other migrants a certain deterrent, especially some docile vegetarian mutant beasts. , just seeing it from a distance, he quickly changed direction to avoid passing by the monitor lizard.
This time the beast tide migrates over a wide area, covering almost the entire coast. It goes in all directions and covers a wide area. Therefore, the density of the beast tide is very low. It is far from compared with the previous beast tides, allowing these mutant beasts to have enough leeway and choose a relatively safe path.
Of course, those who dare to travel together, or even provoke, have shown their terrifying strength, such as the group of insects that are suspected of being deep blue.
By this time, the earthquake was extremely strong, and there were sounds of snapping trees and the wails of mutated beasts everywhere. As more and more mutant beasts rushed into this area, the jungles on both sides began to commotion. Under the control of panic, the mutant beasts here were also coerced and fled crazily, and a rich blood gradually filled the air. taste.
The atmosphere was extremely depressing, and the ink-like darkness catalyzed the atmosphere. Everyone felt their hearts beating loudly, almost making people crazy, and they wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
However, after walking for less than ten minutes, the giant lizard slowly stopped.
"what happened?"
"There seems to be a huge rock in front of me, blocking the way." Lin Xiaoji said.
"Damn it, the mountain has collapsed!" Huo Dong took a closer look and was so depressed that he almost spit out a mouthful of blood and couldn't help cursing.
"What should we do now? If we change the route, we will at least bypass this mountain." Wang Xiaguang said with a pale face.
"You guys sit down first, I'll go take a look." Luo Yuan frowned and said, turned over and jumped down. There were mountain peaks on both sides of the road here, and the highway ran directly across the middle.
In order to ensure the safety of traffic arteries in the last days, the mountains on both sides have been poured with cement. Logically speaking, they should be very strong, but for some reason, one of the peaks collapsed from halfway up the mountainside. The falling stones destroyed the highway. They are all tightly blocked.
The rest is nothing, the worst thing is a huge boulder in the middle, more than 20 meters high, occupying almost the entire road.
Most of the mountains in the Jiangnan area are not high and can only be called hills. Otherwise, if the mountainside collapses, only a boulder more than 20 meters high will fall. However, although the mountain is not high, the area is not small. If you want to take a detour, it means you will have to walk more than ten kilometers, and the road will definitely not be as easy as the highway. It is completely a forest area, which means that the time will be With a lot of delay, we might not even be able to get to Shanghai tomorrow morning.
Luo Yuan walked a few steps irritably on the spot, and suddenly saw the monitor lizard next to him, and his heart moved: How about letting it try? If it can break this huge boulder, it can completely dig out a road. Luo Yuan just said I also took a look and found that the blocked road was not long, about thirty meters or so. This amount of work was nothing to the monitor lizard.
After Luo Yuan went back and explained, he asked everyone to get off the giant lizard and asked them to retreat far away to avoid being hit by flying gravel and causing accidental injuries.
After telling them to be careful, Luo Yuan led the giant lizard towards the boulder ahead.
… …
"He wants that lizard to smash this boulder?" Zhou Yicheng said with a surprised expression as he was put on the ground.
"It's a monitor lizard!" Master Wang corrected him with a serious look on his face: "The monitor lizard is very strong, there is no problem in smashing that rock!"
"But... that stone is as high as five or six stories!" Zhou Yicheng couldn't believe it.
"No matter how tall the boulder is, it can break it. Its bones are harder than steel!" Wang Shishi said tirelessly.
"Master, don't distract, pay attention to the safety around you!" Huang Jiahui's face darkened and she scolded.
"He's the one arguing with me!" Wang Shishi glared at Zhou Yicheng aggrievedly.
Zhou Yicheng shut his mouth and stopped arguing with such a stubborn little girl. At the same time, he felt a chill in his heart. After staying here for less than a day, his vigilance seemed to have dropped greatly. In comparison, these soldiers seemed more and more like ordinary people who needed protection, rather than warriors who could fight at any time.
Just like this little girl of 17 or 18 years old, she looks inconspicuous and has an extremely immature mind. In fact, she is very likely to be a terrifying evolver. Although she has not been seen fighting, she can still hold the stick in her hand. The dagger was not even a ridiculous awl, and the serious attitude of Luo Yuan and others towards it did not look like being protected at all.
At this time, a loud bang interrupted Zhou Yicheng's thoughts.
There was a cloud of smoke and dust dozens of meters ahead, and countless rubbles scattered like bullets. The smoke quickly dissipated.
There is already a big hole missing in the boulder. About a dozen cubic meters of rock have been knocked away by the giant lizard. The remaining parts are also covered with cracks and spread like a spider web. However, the giant lizard is not doing well either. Its head is dripping with blood. , large areas of blood could not stop flowing out, staining the ground with blood. It kept shaking its head and seemed a little dizzy.
After the giant lizard calmed down for a while, Luo Yuan tried to let it continue to hit, but the giant lizard whined and retreated pitifully. No matter how much Luo Yuan scolded him, he did not dare to go up.
Luo Yuan looked at the cracks on the boulder. This rock was already at the end of its strength. It only needed one or two more hits to completely shatter it. At this critical moment, the giant lizard actually flinched. How could this be possible
If it had just been conquered, with Luo Yuan's temperament, he would have fought with fists and feet by now and conquered the beast with force. But now the situation has changed, and the giant lizard has unknowingly surpassed Luo Yuan in strength. If he uses violence to persuade him again, the effect will not be so good, and his loyalty may drop sharply, and he will eventually rebel.
Now Luo Yuan could only induce. He took out a food brick from his pocket and shook it up and down. The tempting breath made the monitor's eyes rise and fall with the food brick. Then Luo Yuan pointed at the boulder.
The monitor lizard obviously hesitated, but in the end the temptation to eat bricks was greater.
It hit again, wailing loudly in pain, but this time the force was obviously not comparable to the first time, and the effect was not as good as before, except that the cracks increased a little more.
The giant lizard looked back pitifully and forgot about Luo Yuan. Its head was soaked with blood and it looked extremely miserable.
However, Luo Yuan was unmoved at all. It was just a skin injury and he continued to point at the giant rock.
Seeing that it couldn't win sympathy, the monitor lizard had to look back again, but this time it was obviously smarter. It didn't hit like the two previous suicides. It slowly walked to the boulder, its throat twitched, and the next moment, it He suddenly opened his huge mouth, and a stream of scorching flames spurted out from his mouth, directly bombarding the huge rock like an explosion.
The giant rock once again opened a huge gap, and the remaining flames were still burning fiercely under the rain. Under the violent changes of alternating cold and heat, the giant rock could no longer support it and finally collapsed.
Luo Yuan was a little surprised by the monitor lizard's wisdom and didn't think much about it.
He threw the food brick forward, and the monitor lizard caught it quickly and flexibly, swinging its tail briskly.
At this time, its movements froze, its scales stood upright, its tail was like a huge sawtooth, and a dull roar came from its mouth.
Almost at the same time, a scream came from the distance, it was Zhao Yali!
"Something happened!" Luo Yuan was shocked and ran quickly towards where everyone was.
I don't know what kind of creature it is in the darkness, and it is confronting Lao Huang at this time.
No, it was not a confrontation, but Lao Huang kept retreating, whimpering sounds coming from his mouth.
Suddenly it was hit by something unknown, and its huge body began to roll violently. The next moment, it hit the rocks on both sides of the highway heavily, twitched a few times, and then became motionless, not knowing whether it was alive or dead.
Gunfire rang out immediately!
But no one saw whether it was hit or not. There seemed to be nothing in front of him. The invisible fear seemed to be tugging at everyone's hearts, making it difficult to breathe.
"What happened? Did you see what it was?" Luo Yuan quickly rushed to where everyone was, and the giant lizard also followed.
Luo Yuan's voice made everyone sigh in relief.
"No, I didn't see anything. I only noticed that Lao Huang's reaction was wrong, so I became vigilant." Wang Shishi said hastily, his face was pale, and it was obvious that she was very frightened this time.
"It doesn't feel like the bullets are hitting. There seems to be nothing in front of you?" One of the soldiers also gasped and said. He had never encountered such an enemy before.
Luo Yuan stared closely at the darkness, but as several people said, there was nothing in front of him, but he could feel obvious malice in front of him. This malice made Luo Yuan tremble and his scalp numb. This was a kind of intuition. Although he couldn't see it, Luo Yuan knew that the creature was standing not far in front. His heart beat violently, and he hesitated and said, "You guys wait here, I'll go take a look!"
"No, it may have gone, don't go again!" Huang Jiahui said quickly, with a worried look on her face. The invisible enemy was even more frightening. She definitely didn't want Luo Yuan to take risks.
"Yes! Xiao Yuan, don't be brave, this time is too weird, don't go there." Zhao Yali also grabbed Luo Yuan and said with a look of fear, her body felt a little trembling.
"It's targeting us!" Luo Yuan said in a confused manner: "Besides, you should stay away!"
Immediately, Luo Yuan slowly put down Zhao Yali's hand. He carefully sensed his surroundings, but found nothing. He slowly pulled out the sword in his hand, and walked forward step by step.
At the same time, a terrifying aura slowly emitted from him, getting stronger and stronger!
The air began to become restless, the stones on the ground kept shaking, and invisible air currents gradually surrounded the surroundings under a mysterious force.
Under Luo Yuan's full momentum, everyone retreated hurriedly, their faces pale. Even though they had retreated dozens of meters, they still felt their hearts beating violently, and they couldn't help but look at each other in shock!
Under this terrifying aura, the other party finally could no longer maintain perfect concealment. The surrounding scene seemed to be slightly distorted, and was quickly captured by Luo Yuan's perception. In the flash of lightning, Luo Yuan moved in an instant, as if When the dragon came out of the cave, he stepped hard with his toes, his body was low, almost parallel to the ground, and he sprinted forward like an arrow from the string.
The terrifying speed caused a cyclone and dust flying directly behind him. The distance of more than ten meters was almost instantaneous for Luo Yuan. The Zhanma sword emitted a sharp blade, like a rainbow light, piercing the air directly and thrusting towards the previously twisted position like lightning. The surrounding scene suddenly changed. It suddenly collapsed as if it were an illusion, revealing a giant over seven meters tall with green hair all over his body.
When he saw the giant, Luo Yuan was slightly shocked, but it was only for a moment. He quickly retracted the knife and then stabbed it out at a faster speed.
The giant's ferocious face looked a little panicked, as if it was unable to react to the sudden attack, but its blood-red eyes suddenly lit up in just a moment.
Luo Yuan looked at the light and felt palpitations in his heart. The thin layer of defense of his will probably couldn't withstand this strange attack. He turned his feet flexibly, followed the knife, and quickly walked around behind the giant. He held the sword in his back, followed his footsteps, and pulled hard against the crook of its leg!
The opponent's skin is very tough, and as soon as it enters the flesh, it is clamped by layers of muscles, which makes it a bit obscure. Moreover, this action is not easy to use force. It only cuts less than an inch and can no longer cut in, but it also gives it a Comes enough pain.
"Ouch!" The giant roared in pain, the red light in his eyes dissipated, and there was fear in his voice.
But this was just the beginning. Luo Yuan kept circling the giant, his knife slashing out from all directions from time to time. Pieces of flesh and blood were cut off one by one. In just one second, Luo Yuan made more than a dozen cuts. , this was due to the dodge in his footsteps, the giant's feet were soon dripping with blood.
It's not that the giant's movements are slow or that his reactions are not fast enough, but that his size limits his movements, just like when a person wants to catch a mouse but is unable to do so because the opponent is too small.
The giant roared in fear and stamped hard on the ground with his feet. The highway was soon filled with potholes and gravel splashed everywhere. It seemed that it wanted to trample the pesky rat to death, but it had no effect at all.
Finally, it finally thought of escaping. When it turned around, Luo Yuan took a few steps and cut off its hamstring with a sharp knife. The huge body immediately knelt on the ground, and the ground shook.
Before he could stand up, Luo Yuan kicked him hard on the back of his knee and he fell to the ground again.
Even if he was kneeling on the ground, this giant was more than two meters tall. Luo Yuan stepped on his knee again, with such force that his attempt to stand up completely failed. He jumped behind him, walked a few steps quickly, walked up to its head, grabbed its hair hard, and pulled it hard, forcing it to raise its head. The tip of the sword was aimed at its temple. Mang hesitated.
The next moment, he thrust hard and penetrated from the other end instantly.
The giant trembled violently, and his eyes were filled with red light. A red light hit the ground, blowing up a cloud of dust, and then fell softly to the ground, making no sound anymore.
It was only then that the giant's most powerful attack finally had a chance to be unleashed.
