Luo Yuan breathed a sigh of relief quickly. He saw Zhao Yali in the crowd, and everyone else was there too. It seemed that the person on his side was not the one who had the trouble.
Seeing Luo Yuan coming back, everyone quickly separated, and everyone couldn't help but feel slightly relieved.
Even a few soldiers were like this. This was the subtle impact of Luo Yuan's powerful and inhuman performance.
Luo Yuan walked in and saw a soldier lying on the ground. He was still twitching instinctively, but he was already dead. His skull seemed to have been opened by something, and his brain inside was blurred.
"What's going on?" Luo Yuan asked with a solemn expression.
A soldier explained with a sad look on his face. The matter was very simple. The soldier had some urgency to urinate in the morning and was going to find a corner to deal with it. Unknowingly, he walked to the edge of the woods and saw a creature that he didn't know what it was. It landed on its head, and before he could knock it down, it opened his skull.
Zhao Yali was the first to discover it. When everyone arrived, the creature had disappeared and fled.
Luo Yuan looked at the forest that seemed to hide endless dangers. His heart was a little heavy. Another life disappeared. This was the first day they came here. Such things may happen again in the future. They don't know who will turn next. To whom.
He glanced at everyone subconsciously, and then he noticed that something was wrong with Zhao Yali's face, with a hint of fear and uneasiness, and her body seemed to be shaking slightly.
Luo Yuan felt a little strange. To say she was scared, she had seen blood and a lot of dead people along the way, so she shouldn't be so scared. Is there something hidden
Luo Yuan avoided everyone, greeted Zhao Yali and asked her to follow him, then turned and walked towards the open space in the distance.
Zhao Yali's expression changed, and she finally gritted her teeth and followed him with an uneasy expression.
The two of them didn't stop until they were more than a hundred meters away from the crowd. They were far enough here that they didn't risk being heard.
Luo Yuan looked a little silent. He hesitated for a long time before speaking out: "What exactly is going on? Are you hiding something from us?"
Before she could speak, Zhao Yali broke down emotionally and started crying on the spot.
"Xiaoyuan, I... I seem to have killed someone."
Zhao Yali's words hit Luo Yuan's heart like a thunderbolt from the blue. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly comforted him: "Don't cry yet, don't be nervous. Tell me slowly, what's going on?"
He knew very well what kind of character Zhao Yali had. She could kill chickens and fish, but he wouldn't even dare to let her kill someone. Moreover, she had no grudge against the soldier. How could she kill someone for no reason? There was obviously something hidden inside.
Zhao Yali explained the cause and effect intermittently with a choked voice.
Similar to what the soldier said before, the soldier walked too close to the woods when it was convenient, and a monkey-like fluffy mutant creature suddenly landed on top of his head. At that time, Zhao Yali was collecting firewood nearby when she heard the soldier's scream. , and when she turned around, she saw with her own eyes the horrifying sight of the skull being uncovered by the mutated beast, and she couldn't help but scream.
Unexpectedly, with this scream, not only the soldier but also the mutated beast above him were blown away by an invisible force, and the brain exposed by the skull was shattered to pieces.
The soldiers who were still struggling and resisting fell instantly and died.
After hearing Zhao Yali's explanation, Luo Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, this kind of thing cannot be entirely blamed on Zhao Yali. The soldier's skull was opened and he would not have survived. Even if Zhao Yali didn't inadvertently give him the final blow, he wouldn't have been able to survive for a few more hours. What's more, there was a mutant beast on his back, and his life would end at any time.
Neither the law nor morality can accuse Zhao Yali.
Luo Yuan comforted her for a while, and Zhao Yali's face improved slightly, but she still felt guilty and overwhelmed after killing someone.
But from some aspects, it is a good thing for Zhao Yali. This experience was a baptism for her in all aspects. Nothing can change a person's character more quickly than killing someone. Although it is a bit cruel, in the end of the world, a cowardly and timid person will definitely survive. Not long.
Later, Luo Yuan was a little curious about Zhao Yali's abilities and asked her to try again.
Zhao Yali was a little hesitant, obviously still having doubts about what happened before, but after Luo Yuan's persuasion and the novelty of her evolutionary ability, she finally nodded.
Without any preparation, she opened her mouth and tried to scream.
It was no different from her usual screams, but with a strange power involved.
Luo Yuan felt as if the air was driven by an invisible force and began to vibrate violently, spreading rapidly in the surroundings in the form of a wave. The leaves and gravel on the ground were knocked away by this force and floated in the air.
This is obviously an infrasound wave. Her vocal cords seem to have been changed during evolution, and she can now freely emit such powerful fluctuations.
However, this power is too weak, not even comparable to the effect of a Category 5 or 6 typhoon, and the distance is only about 20 meters away.
"Speak louder!" Luo Yuan said.
Seeing herself using her evolutionary ability, Zhao Yali felt slightly excited and nodded vigorously. She screamed again, this time the sound suddenly increased by an octave, and an extremely sharp sound penetrated Luo Yuan's ears. , made his mind buzzing, and there was a hint of nausea in his heart, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.
At the same time, the air in front of Zhao Yali seemed to be boiling. The air vibrated violently, and an invisible ripple spread rapidly. Wherever it passed, countless weeds were crushed by the ripples, leaving only a few tough branches. Stem, roots are weighed down by ripples.
Luo Yuan's face showed a hint of surprise.
However, the momentum seems very great, but the lethality is quite limited. I am afraid that even a light blue mutant beast cannot be killed.
"Can it get higher?" Luo Yuan asked. This should not be the limit.
Zhao Yali felt it for a while and eagerly said, "I'll give it a try."
This time she had been brewing for a long time and took several deep breaths in succession. Suddenly she took a deep breath and opened her mouth to scream.
Luo Yuan didn't hear any sound this time, but the air in front of him suddenly seemed to explode. There was a violent riot, and a circle of white air ripples similar to those formed after a missile exploded appeared around him. This ripple spread at a high speed, so Wherever it passed, all the rocks and shrubs were blown away heavily. Even a few exposed and moss-covered boulders not far away were also hit by the continuous infrasound waves. Stone powder flew into the air and several layers were peeled away. .
As the infrasound waves continued to erupt, layers of humus on the ground were lifted up. Dead leaves were flying across the sky, and rubble was everywhere. The sound was majestic.
Zhao Yali stopped, her face flushed, and she couldn't stop panting. It was obvious that such an attack was extremely draining of energy. When she looked forward, her red lips opened slightly, and she was stunned by the scene she had caused in front of her.
In fact, Luo Yuan was more shocked than him. The destructive power was secondary. What was more important was the special effect of infrasound waves on living things. Luo Yuan noticed that during the time when Zhao Yali sent out the infrasound waves, the forest in the distance kept commotion, and the leaves Shaking, countless hidden creatures around are escaping from this place quickly as if a disaster is imminent.
Even he felt a little unwell, his heart was beating erratically, he felt dizzy and nauseous, and his scalp was tingling. This was because he was not in the direct direction of the sound source. If he were the first to bear the brunt, he would probably feel extremely uncomfortable, even in the gutter. It might even capsize.
"Sister Yali, your ability to evolve is so amazing!" Wang Xiaguang said happily. Her face turned slightly pale, obviously affected by the infrasound wave just now.
Because of the huge movement here, except for the grieving soldiers who stayed in place, everyone else ran over curiously.
Zhao Yali was a little embarrassed and said: "I didn't know it was so powerful!"
"Congratulations, you will also be a powerful evolver in the future." Cao Lin congratulated without wanting to offend anyone.
Huang Jiahui also smiled and congratulated her, but her smile was a little forced, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart.
Master Wang glanced at his mouth and said nothing, but he felt huge pressure in his heart.
Lin Xiaoji, who was watching the destruction nearby, had a darkened face. As a veteran evolver second only to Luo Yuan, he was being overtaken by others one after another, and his attack power was only slightly better than ordinary people. He was so depressed that he almost went crazy. .
… … …
Including the two captains, a total of three corpses were cremated quickly. Looking at the blazing flames, everyone looked solemn.
After the cremation, the ashes were wrapped in soldiers' animal skins, and the relics were buried in the soil one by one, and then filled up.
There are no graves or monuments, and the soldiers' treatment of the dead is extremely simple. Maybe this is the best situation. Many dead soldiers may not even be able to collect their bones, and they will be exposed in the wilderness and eaten by mutant beasts.
Near noon, the giant lizard started making noises and wanted to come out. The transport plane had been deformed and the valves could not be opened. In order to allow the giant lizard to leave, Luo Yuan had to cut off the entire tail of the transport plane.
After a night of recovery, the giant lizard was still a little listless and dazed from time to time. Luo Yuan looked helpless. It was obvious that the anesthetic injected before had serious side effects, and he didn't know when he would be able to return to his full strength.
But now that he can stand up, he can still be used as a laborer.
Dark night is the most dangerous time in the forest. Yesterday, I spent a frightened night in the wild. I did it out of necessity. If I did this every day, even my iron-clad body would not be able to bear it.
Therefore, a safe place to rest is absolutely essential.
Originally, the transport plane was the best choice. It was strong and spacious and could not be destroyed by ordinary mutant beasts. However, after fierce collisions, cracks have appeared in many places. The diameter of the cracks is as large as two meters, not to mention that in order to let the giant lizards come out. , the entire tail was cut open, and it was obviously uninhabitable in such a dangerous place.
Luo Yuan originally planned to dig a cave large enough to accommodate at least a dozen people. This was a huge project that might not be completed until night, but it would be much easier with the monitor lizard.
After discussing it with everyone, Luo Yuan found that he was not overly thoughtful. The safety of such a cave is very low. Moreover, it is located in a virgin forest with loose soil and corrosion that is three to four meters or even five to six meters thick. If it is not dug, The clay layer is extremely easy to collapse, and there is no way to prevent the danger. You can only rely on your own vigilance.
After a discussion, everyone came up with a better way.
The nose of the transport plane had already crashed into the hillside, reaching a depth of seven or eight meters. As long as the top of the nose was dug another five or six meters, it would be enough to accommodate everyone.
Moreover, the cockpit is originally five or six meters higher than the transport cabin. If you want to enter there, you have to go through a metal staircase first, and there is a door outside the cockpit.
To everyone's surprise, the door did not deform at all during the impact and could still be closed and locked!
"Great, now there are no creatures that can sneak into the cave." Huo Dong said loudly, with excitement on his face.
"It's just that the amount of work is a bit large, and it's difficult for the war beast to enter this small door. We might not be able to finish it even at night, but it's worth it for a safe sleep at night." Captain Xia said with a smile.
Everyone was excited, and their originally depressed and heavy hearts relaxed a little.
In the apocalypse, nothing is more important than safety. In the face of safety, everything can only be moved backward.
