Epoch of Twilight

Chapter 388: Decide

Views:

When he walked into the barracks, the mutant looked at Luo Yuan without blinking, with a glint in his eyes!

She allowed Luo Yuan to untie the straps and vine nets on her body, and her body remained motionless. Until her whole body was free, she quickly turned over and hid behind Luo Yuan vigilantly.

Luo Yuan shook his head and laughed, then strode out of the barracks, and the mutants followed closely.

The passage was already empty. There was no obstruction for the two of them along the way. Luo Yuan walked straight through the dilapidated training ground and the mostly collapsed canteen. All the survivors were hiding tightly behind the door, hiding in the In the corner, hiding behind the ruins, he looked at Luo Yuan and the two of them furtively, with suspicious eyes and fear on his face.

However, some people are eager to give it a try.

"We don't take this seriously at all. It's too arrogant. Why don't you keep him?" In the former weapons warehouse, a group of people surrounded a man as strong as a bear.

He looked at Luo Yuan who was strolling along the way with complicated eyes and looked across their territory, and said angrily.

The man he spoke to was a man shrouded in shadow. In the darkness, his figure was vague and seemed to have a tendency to blend into the darkness. He looked mysterious and terrifying. Although he was only one person, his momentum still had the upper hand compared to this group of people.

"If you want to seek death on your own, go ahead. I won't accompany you!" He said with a sneer, his voice was vague and insidious.

Those who can speak like this here are undoubtedly the leaders of the other two forces in this refuge, King Li and Scorpion Liu.

Of course, without Cao Cao, there are only these two groups left in the refuge now.

"Isn't it possible for us to work together?" King Li glanced at him suspiciously, but unfortunately, the shadow on his body prevented him from seeing the expression on Scorpion Liu's face clearly.

Scorpion Liu has always been a loner, but both he and Cao Cao knew that Scorpion Liu was far more powerful than them. Even now, they still can't figure out the bottom line, and they don't know his specific face. They only know that he used to be a soldier. He was also the first to go hunting in the wild.

If it weren't for Xie Zi Liu's withdrawn and eccentric character, who always had no ambitions and kept to himself, he and Cao Cao would have had trouble sleeping and eating.

Scorpion Liu seemed to have heard the funny joke, and let out a burst of infiltrating laughter, which made King Li goosebumps: "I think you have stayed here for too long, and you have really become a frog in the well, and you don't even know where he came from. of!"

"Where?" King Li couldn't help but wonder. All electronic equipment in the shelter had been destroyed, and information was extremely blocked. Not to mention wireless equipment, it was difficult to find even an integrated circuit or component.

Scorpion Liu looked at King Li and smiled, with an overestimating sarcasm:

"There are still large-scale civilizations that can wear clothes like his. I guess there is only one place that can still preserve such industrial capabilities.

Let me give you some popular science. Not long after the signs of the end of the world appeared, the government mobilized the entire country to build the largest reconstruction project, called the reconstruction area. It is located in Taklimakan, the driest desert in China. Don’t you think about it, are we able to deal with people who can come here from such a far away place? "

As a left-behind soldier, Xiezi Liu still has fresh memories of where his other comrades-in-arms were deployed. Either somewhere else, it was the reconstruction area. Fate allowed him to stay, and the cruelty of survival made him go through the darkest days like everyone else.

"How do you know he came here? Maybe he took a plane..." King Li retorted, but he stopped mid-sentence. Today, there are no planes flying in the sky. There are already mutant birds. .

When he thought of this, King Li took a breath of cold air, his heart was filled with turmoil, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

Before the end of the world, he was just an ordinary farmer nearby. His geographical knowledge was not good, but he also knew that the distance between the two was more than a thousand miles. He could come here all the way through the wilderness, his clothes were still spotless, and his face did not have the slightest trace of weather. What a terrifying strength.

Scorpion Liu ignored King Li's shock, his eyes seemed to be shining with hope, and he said in a dreamy tone: "I thought that the reconstruction area had disappeared, but the appearance of this person shows that the reconstruction area is still intact.

I can't see a glimmer of hope here. This shelter is destined to slowly die and rot. Maybe in half a year, there will be no one here. I don't want to die worthless, I want to leave! "

"What?" King Li looked shocked. When he understood, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic in his heart. Now that Cao Cao is dead, and now Scorpion Liu is planning to leave again, his family will soon be the sole owner of the entire shelter, and he is truly one and the same.

But soon, he felt a sense of sadness, and most of his joy disappeared.

Like a broken ship that is about to sink, those who stay here may be safe for the time being, but their fate has been decided, it's just a matter of time. Now one of the strongest men is preparing to jump out of the broken ship and try to find land. The future of this road is unknown, and life and death are uncertain. As the second strongest man, he is partly happy and partly panic. I am afraid that even he himself Not very clear.

"I'm leaving. I hope we'll see you again later!" Scorpion Liu glanced at Luo Yuan who was about to disappear and said.

"So fast?" King Li was surprised. For some reason, he felt a trace of reluctance in his heart.

"I don't know how to leave. Of course, then follow that person?" Scorpion Liu said lightly. The next moment, he decisively turned around and left. Even the women he had here didn't miss him at all. His body seemed to blend into the shadows and moved towards Luo Luo. The far side swept away like water.

Just as Luo Yuan walked out of the small hole, his body suddenly stopped, turned around and said: "Come out!"

The mutant's ears twitched and he quickly hid behind Luo Yuan, carefully looking towards a dark place.

Scorpion Liu quickly emerged from the shadows, but before he could explain his intention, he heard Luo Yuan say: "Do you want to go to the reconstruction area?"

"How do you know?" Scorpion Liu asked in surprise. He quickly looked at Luo Yuan warily, and his heart beat secretly. He found that facing this person, his whole body seemed to be seen through, and there was no secret at all.

"You said it yourself, I just heard it. Unfortunately, I have other things to do. This time I am not going to the reconstruction area. You can't follow me. You can only go on your own." Luo Yuan has a keen hearing and a bird a few kilometers away He could easily hear the flapping of the mutated mosquitoes' wings, not to mention that the two people had not concealed their previous conversations, so he could hear them clearly.

Luo Yuan looked at him with some curiosity. This evolver's ability was quite strange. His body could actually produce shadows. It was unknown whether it was swallowed by light or refracted by light.

Scorpion Liu was shocked when he heard this, and was even more shocked by Luo Yuan's strength. He couldn't help but feel glad that he was wise at that time. Otherwise, if he had really listened to King Li's instigation, just with his super hearing, everyone's actions would have been unavoidable. As long as you have patience and defeat them one by one, the total number of people in the shelter will not be enough to kill him.

Listening to Luo Yuan's decisive refusal to go with him, Scorpion Liu felt a little disappointed, but the strong self-esteem he had developed in the shelter made him unable to bear the shame of begging him for a moment, and he also knew in his heart that this was probably useless, so he turned to He retreated and asked, "But I don't know how to get there?"

"I'll give you a satellite map, but it's not here. You still need to follow me to the temporary residence today." Luo Yuan thought for a while and said. The reconstruction area prepared two satellite maps for him at that time, and one was a spare. Yes, it doesn't hurt to give him one.

"Okay!" Scorpion Liu Yan said concisely.

Luo Yuan looked at the time and saw that it was already past eight o'clock. He said casually: "The road is a bit far. We need to speed up. If we can't run anymore, just say something."

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener sounded intentional. Even though he felt that he was a few scorpions short when they met, he couldn't help but feel a sense of humiliation. He, who was proud of the crowd in the shelter, had never heard such words before, not to mention that he was the only one who said such words there. Only qualified to say.

However, before he came back to his senses, Luo Yuan had already disappeared from his eyes like blue smoke, followed closely by the stunning-looking mutant. His face was filled with blood and burning. Fortunately, there was a shadow. He was blocked and could not see his face clearly.

After reacting, he hurriedly caught up, but he found to his dismay that even if he ran as hard as he could, the distance between the two did not get closer as time went by, but instead became farther and farther away.

Of course, Luo Yuan didn't want to give him a blow. After all, there was no need for this person who would never see him again after today.

His speed is not fast, that is, 50 to 60 meters per second. Not to mention running at full strength, he does not even have an ordinary traveling speed. It is only equivalent to an ordinary person's jogging.

Of course, fifty-six meters per second is quite astonishing. In the reconstruction area, anyone who can reach this speed can at least be evaluated as a fourth-level evolver, with the potential to become a reserve member of the sword department.

There are not many such evolvers even in the reconstruction area. There are only a few hundred or thousands of them. Compared with the huge base of evolvers, they are simply rare. As for the population base of Sanctuary, the chance of birthing a powerful evolver above level 4 is about the same as winning a lottery ticket.

The battle that happened before was too fast, it was like an instant kill. He had no idea about the strength of these evolvers. Luo Yuan also didn't realize that the strength of the evolvers here was so weak for a moment, so he just subconsciously slowed down a little, and he usually The person I came into contact with was either a super-evolved person from the sword department or this gifted mutant, and I couldn't react mentally.

It wasn't until Luo Yuan in front took the initiative to slow down that Scorpion Liu gradually caught up, but the speed had already dropped to thirty or forty meters per second!

Scorpion Liu noticed that the mutant turned back to look at him from time to time, as if he was surprised why he was so slow. His face could not help but feel hot, and he quickly avoided his sight, gritted his teeth and covered his head as he hurried on.

The road ahead seemed to have no end in sight. His feet gradually became numb, his breathing was like a bellows, and his lungs were on fire. He didn't know how long he had been running. He only knew that the surrounding environment was getting more and more remote and unfamiliar. This place is far beyond the scope of exploration of the shelter, and it is also more terrifying. Various attacks appear one after another along the way.

He was shocked to find that Luo Yuan still had enough energy to kill some of the terrifying mutant beasts that attacked him while running, without slowing down at all.

Some of the mutant beasts were eight or nine meters high, or even more than ten meters high. They were cut in half by him just because they blocked the way forward.

The strong smell of blood spread all the way along their path. What they saw in front of them had already made Scorpion Liu numb with shock, completely subverting his three views.

He had never thought that evolvers could be so powerful. In his eyes, even one of these terrifying mutated creatures was enough to bring despair to the entire shelter. In his eyes, it was as easy as killing chickens and sheep.

Because there was one more burden, Luo Yuan ran and stopped all the way. It took a full five hours before returning to the cave.

"The reconstruction area is too far from here. The dangers along the way are beyond your strength. I suggest you not to go. Stay in the shelter and at least you can survive for a few more years." Luo Yuan lit a bonfire. , took out the satellite map from his backpack, threw it over, glanced at Scorpion Liu, who was running completely exhausted, and gave him a rare suggestion.

He still had something to say. Even in the reconstruction area, it was not necessarily safe. Extraterrestrial civilizations were like the Sword of Damocles hanging over the reconstruction area. They would attack at any time. By then, it was impossible to say that the wild would still be safe.

Scorpion Liu panted like an ox and fell limply to the ground. The torture of running all the way had already worn away the remaining dignity of a strong man. He smiled bitterly and said: "Of course I know this, but I am not willing to be so helpless." I hope to die, no matter how dangerous it is, I will die on the road.”

Luo Yuan sighed slightly in his heart. When Hedong City fell, he traveled thousands of miles across China, and he had the same thoughts and mentality.

"Can you tell me what's going on in the reconstruction area?" Xie Ziliu asked.

"The reconstruction area is okay for the time being. The society has been re-established there and the danger of mutant beasts is isolated. There are factories and underground cities everywhere. Everything is developing rapidly and thriving. At least when I came out, everything Everything is fine," Luo Yuan said.

If there were no extraterrestrial civilization, everything would indeed be developing for the better, and perhaps we would be able to see the scene of humankind regaining its lost land before our lifetime.

Scorpion Liu looked a little excited and his breathing became rapid: "I really hope I can see it."

Luo Yuan shook his head and said nothing. He was not optimistic about Scorpion Liu. He took a small mutant beast that he killed on the road, skinned it, disembowelled it, and then roasted it on the fire rack!

"Should I do it?" Scorpion Liu said quickly when he saw this.

"No!" Luo Yuan refused: "We will separate tomorrow, and you still need to go on the road alone. Have a good rest today."

Sympathy is sympathy, Luo Yuan can't abandon his mission and accompany him.

The mutant has been squatting quietly next to Luo Yuan, listening to the two people talking quietly, sometimes looking at the flames, sometimes secretly looking at Luo Yuan, his eyes sparkling.

Judging from the distance between the two of them, she has completely let down her guard against Luo Yuan. The reason for keeping a distance may be just her habit of living in the wild, which makes her not used to getting too close.

The bonfire burned quietly, occasionally dripping grease and sparks, making a thunderous sound.

No one spoke for a while, everyone seemed to be thinking about their own thoughts.

A few people ate their belated dinner in a hurry, leaving a pile of bones on the ground. Luo Yuan threw a spare tent to Scorpion Liu. The mutant didn't need it anyway: "I'll give it to you. You can use it on the road."

"Thank you!" Scorpion Liu said gratefully, and touched the tent gently, feeling the smooth silky touch on his hands. He instinctively felt that this tent was not simple, and there seemed to be a faint but majestic aura faintly exuding. Come.

The night was like water, and the mutant huddled in the corner crept back to Luo Yuan's tent and lay down next to it.

Luo Yuan was not asleep at this time. He was feeling everything outside in a complicated mood. After a long time, he made a decision in his heart.

It is undeniable that after these two days together, especially what happened tonight, he has unknowingly developed some affection for this simple and one-minded guy. However, there is no such thing as a banquet in the world, and after all, it is the same with mutants. Must be separated!

Even if the warp flight test is not successful, it will be a matter of time, but now the time has been advanced. If she really has to follow him to the more dangerous seaside, it will not do her any good, but will harm her.

What's more, this mission has been delayed for a long time. This mission is related to the life and death of mankind. If he can obtain the information one day earlier, mankind will have more hope, and there will be no delay.

Now that he has the ability to fly in warp speed, he must get to Borneo as soon as possible.
