He lowered his body slightly and listened for a while.
There was no movement around. Even the usual chirping of insects and birds in the forest disappeared in this sudden explosion. Only the breeze blowing through the woods and the rustling sound sounded from time to time.
He listened for a while, and then walked step by step towards the pit ahead. His steps were gentle and silent. It was not until he reached the pit that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
There is nothing inside!
The entire hole is eleven to twelve meters deep and sixty to seventy meters in diameter, making it look like a huge meteorite crater.
Maybe it’s the crater!
Luo Yuan saw a pile of gravel inlaid at the bottom of the pit.
It can be seen that this pile of rubble was originally a single piece, but it only shattered due to the violent impact with the ground.
He hesitated, then jumped down, walked to the bottom of the pit, and touched the gravel with his hand. The gravel was extremely hot, which confirmed Luo Yuan's suspicion. However, what puzzled him was that there seemed to be no sign of burning.
You must know that when meteorites fall into the earth, they will burn violently under the high-speed friction of the atmosphere. Most of the meteorites will completely disappear during this violent burning process. Finally, they will fall to the ground, leaving behind meteorites, which are generally relatively small. Large individuals, and all have signs of melting.
He looked up at the sky in confusion. There were thousands of dark clouds in the sky. He looked at it for a while. Just as he looked back, he suddenly seemed to feel something. He subconsciously looked above his head. His pupils shrank suddenly and only a small dot was visible. , falling straight down from the sky. At first, it was only the size of a sesame seed. In the blink of an eye, it became bigger and bigger like a balloon.
In just a few breaths, it was already as big as a basketball.
A faint blue smoke appeared faintly behind the "meteorite", as if hanging from a long tail. That is the phenomenon of high temperature generated by the violent friction of air.
As the meteorite gets bigger and bigger, the smoke becomes thicker and more intense, and it is about to burn.
From this distance, Luo Yuan could even see the fine texture of the "meteorite" and the thick air surrounding it like a shield. Before it hit the ground, there was a majestic aura of destruction that seemed to be substantial. It came right in front of me.
Judging from the trajectory of the meteorite, it seemed that the impact point of the meteorite was nearby. He was shocked and suddenly came out of his daze.
After a few jumps, he quickly escaped from the crater and ran rapidly in the direction from which he came.
His heart was pounding, and streams of thick blood were transmitted to all his limbs through the powerful beating of his heart. The strong sense of crisis had pushed his speed to the limit.
Big trees passed quickly, and the scenery in front of him changed rapidly. Countless information poured into his mind like a tide, making it impossible for his brain to distinguish clearly, and he could only make various actions instinctively.
Maybe ten seconds, maybe a minute.
It wasn't until a loud "boom" sound came that he slowly stopped.
He held his knees and panted fiercely. After half a minute, he looked in the direction of the sound.
A huge mushroom cloud rose straight into the sky.
He quickly climbed to the tallest tree nearby, and after checking the direction, he realized that he had made a mistake in his judgment, and it was entirely because he was frightening himself. The two craters were three or four kilometers apart.
Not to mention the impact of the aftermath, even the breeze may not blow.
"But what's going on? How is it possible that two meteorites in a row fell nearby, and there is no sign of a meteor shower in the sky. And the only two meteorites actually fell in the same area. This chance is simply lower than winning the lottery."
He felt a little suspicious, so he ran to the latest crater.
He was a little surprised. The two craters were almost the same size. It seemed that even the gravels were somewhat similar. If they were put together, they would look like some kind of soft rock.
His expression changed a little, and he stared at the sky tightly, hoping to find some clues. He stood on the ground that had been impacted by the "meteor", his eyes unblinking.
The sky is the territory of flying creatures. Except for the occasional intersection, it is almost another world.
Small dots moved high in the sky, flying into the air from time to time, showing a huge and streamlined body.
Luo Yuan's vision is sharp, especially after eating the eyeballs of the Green Hidden Man, his vision is one level closer. Even if it is just a pinpoint-sized dot, in his eyes, he can vaguely distinguish the general shape and color.
He patiently tried to distinguish them one by one, but did not find any suspicious targets.
Unknowingly, he had been watching without moving for nearly half an hour. Staring at these tiny targets for so long made his eyes sore. Just when he was about to give up, a strange dot broke into Luo Yuan's sight. .
This is a green mutant bird. It seems to be grabbing something with its claws and is trying to fly higher. Because the distance is too high, it is difficult to distinguish. At first, Luo Yuan thought it was catching some kind of prey, but it flew higher and higher, and soon he couldn't even see the small spots clearly.
He gradually had some bad premonitions in his heart.
Sure enough, not long after, a small dot fell from the sky again.
"Grass!" Luo Yuan couldn't help but yelled, with an ugly expression on his face. He had completely remembered the giant green bird.
"Damn it, I didn't expect this beast to be very vindictive and know how to throw stones." Luo Yuan was so angry that his face turned blue.
Before the end of the world, the highest-flying bird could fly to an altitude of 17,000 meters. These were just ordinary birds, and a light green mutant beast with a stronger body and stronger vitality could fly as long as it could overcome its instincts. Fear can fly higher.
Think about it, if a boulder weighing several tons is thrown down from an altitude of 20,000 to 30,000 or even 30,000 to 40,000 meters, the terrifying kinetic energy will be just as terrifying as detonating a small nuclear bomb.
If the trees here were not tall and hard, and the branches were connected together, effectively blocking and weakening the residual power of the shock wave, I am afraid that this kilometer radius would be razed to the ground.
Once the boulder falls near the grotto, the consequences will be unimaginable. The trees there have been cut down and there is almost no cover. Once the boulder hits the ground, the power of the boulder will completely explode.
However, he could only watch the "meteorite" flying faster and lower, and the only thing he could do was pray secretly.
This feeling of powerlessness made Luo Yuan feel an indescribable depression swirling in his chest. He was irritated all over and wanted to grab the other person immediately and break him into pieces.
But just thinking about it, the opponent is high in the sky. As long as he doesn't come down, he is already in an invincible position. He has no chance at all.
Seeing the boulder getting closer and closer, he did not hide this time. Judging from the trajectory, this time it was too far away. Sure enough, it wasn't until more than a minute later that a faint sound came from a distant place.
The place where the meteorite fell is at least thirty or forty kilometers away from here.
This is the only good news among all the news Luo Yuan got. At least he knows that the accuracy of this kind of attack is extremely low, and everything depends on luck.
At this time, it was useless for him to stay here. He turned around and walked back. He had already figured out the frequency of attacks. The time interval was about twenty minutes. This was when the mutant bird found the stones, threw them at high altitude, and then returned. time. At least no meteorites would fall until he returned to the grotto.
He frowned along the way, secretly thinking about countermeasures. Such a passive response was definitely not his character. And the boulder is too powerful. If you are unlucky and hit one of them, the whole army may be wiped out in one fell swoop, and even he will fall down.
"Finally found a good place, are we going to move again?"
Luo Yuan was unwilling to accept it. If it was a giant green bird, he would recognize it.
But this was just a light green-level creature. If he stood on land, with his current strength, he would kill him almost whenever he wanted. It was really annoying for him to have such a level creature want him to stay away.
But he is a rational person after all, and he can only avoid its sharp edges until he comes up with a countermeasure.
