In the early morning of the fifth day, before dawn, Luo Yuan, who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed at the front door, suddenly heard a faint voice. The voice was very soft, vague, and if he hadn't been highly sensitive to this kind of sound, he would have ignored it.
There was a hint of joy on his face, and he stood up immediately, walked a few steps quickly, and looked towards the horizon in the distance.
Seven or eight fuzzy black spots moved slowly in the sky. There was no light on their surface, and it was impossible to tell what shape they were. However, the sound the black spots made was enough for him to confirm that it was an airplane!
"It finally appeared again!" He suppressed the excitement in his heart and carefully observed the flight path of several small points. Then, he quickly sketched a dynamic three-dimensional figure in his mind.
He secretly calculated the direction of movement, and after comparing it with the sketch of Captain Xia in his memory, he found that the two directions were roughly the same, but the angle deviated by about 18 degrees. However, this does not mean anything, nor can we say who is more accurate. After all, the location of the airport may be different, and the various calculated data are only based on visual inspection.
To some extent, as an officer who graduated from a military academy, Captain Xia's judgment may be more accurate. After all, wisdom does not play a decisive role in it, but relies more on experience and knowledge.
Things can't be perfect, everything goes as planned, not to mention that with such a large population in the reconstruction area, the area should not be small, and the scope of activities should be larger. As long as the error is not too big and outrageous, if something goes in the wrong direction, it will be an injustice at best.
Luo Yuan looked at the time and saw that it was only 3:30 in the morning, so he gave up the urge to wake everyone up.
He looked at the horizon with a hint of worry on his face. The environment here had become increasingly bad. In just five days after the rain, the density of mutated creatures in the forest had increased dozens of times.
Fortunately, there are not many mutant beasts compared to before, but there are more insects and birds!
Just like the desert that has been dry for a long time before the end of the world, with just one rain, the desert will quickly turn into a green space, full of flowers, and everything will revive. They will reproduce in this short period of time, and most of them only live a few days. Chance.
This is the miracle of life and the instinct for life to continue in difficult situations.
The situation here is obviously the same. After the heavy rain, insects begin to lay eggs and reproduce in large numbers. After a few days of incubation, the eggs are broken out one after another. It was okay at night, but during the day, the sky was filled with mutated insects, so densely packed that sometimes even the line of sight was obscured. What was even more serious was that the large-scale appearance of these insects attracted a large number of birds that feed on insects.
These newly born insects are not only quite weak in strength but also in size. Most of them stay at the white level, but they cannot withstand large numbers. Now on the grass in front of the rock wall, you can see groups of insects floating around in black masses every day. go.
If these insects, which are no larger than the size of a palm, are just minor diseases, then the mutated birds that feed on these insects are somewhat dangerous.
Although these mutant birds are not big, only the size of a kite eagle, they are extremely fast and flexible, and can move quickly within a small area. In addition, they appear in groups, and their personalities are fierce and crazy. Even Luo Yuan's Neither of the mutant beasts dared to provoke them.
Luo Yuan didn't know the cause of the matter, but with its bad character, it must have done some outrageous things. When it saw it, hundreds of mutant birds swooped down and attacked it headlessly. If you peck it everywhere, the result will naturally be a lose-lose situation. Of course, many mutated birds died, and the giant ape was also scarred and its body was not intact. Of course, its skin was rough and thick, and it was just a few skin wounds. But since that time, the giant ape has never dared to provoke these fierce and life-threatening creatures. "Little flying insect"!
Now, except Luo Yuanyi, who is an expert and brave, no one dares to go outside anymore.
… …
Luo Yuan stood in the darkness for a while, then returned to sit down.
There is a thick layer of small insects about the size of rice grains accumulated on the ground. When you step on it, it makes a crunching sound. These are the corpses left by the mutated insects that tried to get close to the grotto in the middle of the night.
However, these insects were not killed by Luo Yuan, but by the war saber stuck in front of him.
A soldier's weapon is also a weapon. After a long period of deliberate infiltration with his will, this horse-cutting sword has become more and more spiritual. Even if it is simply inserted into the ground, it exudes a faint power, which can be seen all over the body. Han, under this kind of power, ordinary small insects such as mosquitoes and flies would not dare to get close. Once they fly close to five or six meters, they will stay away from it. And this is just a normal state. Once there are other creatures other than Luo Yuan approaching the area where it is located, it will even exude stronger power in response to stress, and the small insects on the ground will instantly react to this sudden situation. die.
Luo Yuan sometimes feels that this knife has come to life, as if it has become his clone, which gives him some vague expectations. However, now, it is only a prototype and has just been conceived. Maybe one day in the future, the legendary thing will really happen.
… …
It was less than two hours before dawn, and Luo Yuan had no intention of going into silence again. He silently took stock of the supplies he would prepare for tomorrow. Yes, he had decided to leave tomorrow.
Since you have to leave sooner or later, it is better to leave early than to leave late. It is like boiling a frog in warm water. When it comes time to leave, in fact, you will no longer be able to leave.
There were only a few simple things, and there was actually nothing much to think about. With his intelligence, in just one second, he had already gone through all the necessary supplies in his mind four or five times.
In fact, he had to admit that he felt a little stressed.
He didn't encounter any decent danger here, maybe because they were in a corner and had good luck, but as the Kunlun Mountains was a primeval forest where people were extremely rare and even mysterious, he believed it would never be that simple.
And this time he was crossing all the way, and he didn't know what would happen on the way, but just thinking about the powerful creatures in the lake before, he felt a huge pressure rushing towards him.
Don't look at the fact that Luo Yuan's strength has improved rapidly during this period, his agility and intelligence have improved a bit, and his strength has more than doubled, but he still has no confidence against green-level creatures.
There is only one big gap between the blue level and the green level, but it is the difference between heaven and earth. If the creatures below green are just mortal objects, the creatures above green and above have undergone transformation. In addition to being more powerful, In addition, Luo Yuan speculated that they all possess some kind of mysterious supernatural power.
For example, the Tianzhu tree that Luo Yuan came into contact with had the supernatural ability to suck life out of its bare bark, and the scales of the dragon he killed by chance had the ability to open mountains and divide water. Maybe the dragon had other supernatural powers, but before it could be used, it was killed by Luo Yuan.
Of course, monitor lizards also have the ability to breathe fire, but this is a flammable chemical liquid secreted by unique organs in its body. In a sense, it is similar to spitting, and has supernatural powers such as "sucking life" and "dividing mountains and water". Ability is completely different in nature.
The last time he killed the dragon was luck, and he died before his strength was fully developed, but he can't have such luck every time. Maybe next time, he will have to face a mutant beast using supernatural abilities!
Thinking of this, Luo Yuan's face became solemn.
