Epoch of Twilight

Chapter 124 The Miracle of Life

Before dawn the next day, everyone got up early.

Many people did not sleep well all night, with dark circles on their faces.

The atmosphere in the living room seemed a little depressing, and each of them packed their luggage silently. In fact, most people were unwilling to migrate, including Huo Dong. He was almost middle-aged, and his physical strength and energy were not comparable to those of young people. If you are not an evolutionary, you will probably die on the way.

But what if you don't want to go, can you stay?

He knew very well that if there was no Luo Yuan, he might die faster if he stayed here, and he would not even be able to live without strength!

He put his backpack on his back, grabbed a machete tightly, and squeezed it tightly.

"Do you need me to bring anything?" Wang Xiaguang asked embarrassedly seeing that several people were packing up, but she was the only one with empty hands.

"No, you just recovered, we took all your things for you." Huang Jiahui said with a smile.

"As long as you can keep up with us!" Wang Shishi couldn't help but interjected.

Wang Xiaguang's expression was already a little stiff, and the woman's keen intuition made her feel that the relationship between these two women and Luo Yuan was unusual, and one of them, who was a little older, seemed to sleep with Luo Yuan at night. Because everyone slept on the first floor of the villa, only these two and Luo Yuan slept in the bedroom on the second floor of the villa, and there were only two bedrooms on the second floor. This discovery made her not sleep well all night, tossing and turning.

Luo Yuan glared at Wang Shishi: "Don't worry, we will walk slowly on the first day, and get used to it slowly. You should also eat more meat at ordinary times, and your body will recover soon."

After two nights of recovery and the nourishment of the mutated animal meat, Wang Xiaguang's complexion looked much better, but the deficiency in his body was not so easy to recover, and at least he needed to recuperate for a few days.

Seeing that Luo Yuan still treats her as before, Wang Xiaguang showed a happy smile: "I have a good physique. I used to do morning exercises every day. I can definitely keep up with you. Luo Yuan, do you still have a knife? I want it too." a handful."

"It's better not to take it. These knives are very sharp and can easily hurt yourself." Luo Yuan hesitated and said, out of a feeling of debt, he didn't want Wang Xiaguang to fight. I just want to protect her well and never get hurt again.

"I have practiced kendo for a long time in college, so it should be fine." Wang Xiaguang said blushingly without hearing what Luo Yuan was thinking.

"Okay, wait, there should be more in the basement, I'll find one." Luo Yuan thought that if Wang Xiaguang had a weapon, he would be able to save himself when he couldn't take care of it, so he stopped refusing, and found a weapon from the basement. Take out the synthesized samurai sword.

Wang Xiaguang took it, pulled out Bushido, threw the scabbard aside, then held the knife in both hands, took a deep breath, made a few quick slashes to the air, and made a sound of "haha", she seemed to be Dissatisfied with Luo Yuan's underestimation of her, he smoothly performed the routine that Luo Yuan gave to Huo Dong and the others yesterday several times.

Luo Yuan's eyes lit up, although from his point of view, her slashing movements were not standard enough, her speed was far from fast enough, and the final kill routine was not smooth, but compared to Huo Dong and Chen Xianfeng , her speed is already quite fast.

It is impossible to kill light blue level mutant beasts, but it is enough to kill low level mutant beasts, not to mention that her body has not recovered at all, and with the nourishment of food, various attributes of her body can be further improved. Blue-level mutant beasts are also not impossible.

After all, when he killed the light blue level, his physical fitness was not very high.

Everyone looked at it with different thoughts. No one thought that a weak woman who had just arrived had such a strong side. Even Lin Xiaoji, who was arrogant to ordinary people and hid far away because of the stench all over her body, began to look at her differently. .

After practicing for a while, Wang Xiaguang stopped panting, looked at Luo Yuan with bright eyes and asked, "What do you think?"

"Have a little foundation."

Wang Xiaguang frowned cutely, and said coquettishly, "I haven't practiced for a long time, and I will definitely surpass you in the future."

Wang Shishi curled her lips in disdain. In her heart, Big Brother Luo is the strongest. No one can compare to Big Brother Luo. Some people even say that they can surpass Luo Yuan.

"Well, you have always been the best." Luo Yuan ignored Wang Shishi's little thoughts and smiled helplessly.

He took out a tarpaulin to cover the car, put most of the remaining things on it, and finally rolled up a large package that was as tall as a person, tied it tightly with nylon ropes, and ran in front of the monitor lizard. Hang it around its neck.

Luo Yuan returned to the living room again, put a bag full of short spears on his back, and raised his saber, seeing that everyone was ready, he said seriously: "It is best to put a little more dried meat in each person's bag." ...If you run into danger and escape, you can support it for a while. In addition, if you don’t want to leave, it’s still too late to regret it. There are still a lot of supplies here, which can ensure that you can live worry-free in a short period of time.”

Huo Dong looked at the taciturn Chen Xianfeng, then at Cao Lin and Ning Xiaoran with firm faces, and sighed in his heart.

Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, Luo Yuan nodded and said: "In that case, let's go!

The weather is cloudless, which is a good sign.

As the monitor lizard's huge body slowly stood up, everyone followed closely and walked forward. The broken road, unless it was a tank, otherwise ordinary motor vehicles could not pass at all, and other people did not dare to sit on the monitor lizard. So everyone, including Luo Yuan, walked forward. This was the first time for everyone except Luo Yuan to go out since arriving here from the air-raid shelter, but the scene outside was completely different from ten days ago.

A lot of green, full of everyone's attention.

Weeds, moss, and vines have already covered the steel city, and there are patches of dense jungle in the distance.

The sun shone on his body, not only did he not feel warm, but his whole body was cold.

Among them, Wang Xiaguang felt the deepest. When she entered the small base, Hedong City had not been destroyed, but when she looked at the city again, it was completely reduced to ruins. The strong contrast and the drastic changes made her I can't come back to my senses for a long time.

The monitor lizard's heavy body walked forward step by step. Every time the concrete on the road fell, cracks appeared in the form of spider webs, and the ground shook slightly. Even if there were boulders blocking the road, it was difficult to stop it Under the command of Luo Yuan, they were knocked away one by one by its terrifying power. With this huge beast that was almost a dark blue creature, ordinary mutant beasts dare not approach at all.

But even so, the speed of everyone's progress was not fast, and they had to avoid the territories of various mutant beasts as much as possible along the way, saving countless long distances. After walking less than ten kilometers, it was almost noon.

The gravel on the road was cleaned up and a tablecloth was placed. Except for Lin Xiaoji who consciously sat in the distance, the others ate a hot meal together.

After dinner, Luo Yuan took out a map of Hedong City.

"We are here now!" Luo Yuan clicked on the map, and then drew a line: "The nearest highway is less than 15 kilometers away, it is best to get there before dark !"

"Why do you need to go to the highway? The two sides used to be farmland, but now they are probably forests. It's too dangerous." Huang Jiahui said.

"The expressway has a high specification, which is a civilian facility as well as a military facility. The concrete floor is indestructible even by heavy tanks. Moreover, the expressway has been specially reinforced and widened before the end of the world. There are at least 100 meters wide anti-plants on both sides. The isolation belt, and there are fortifications every other section of the road, and you can rest in it at that time.

I guess the damage there is not serious even now, and if you can find a vehicle, you can even ride for a while. And we can only get lost if we follow the highway.

I'm not worried about the section near the farmland, but I'm most worried about the section of the cross-sea bridge. If it breaks there, we may have a long detour. "

"I used to pass the cross-sea bridge often. It was dry for most of the year. I only saw tidal flats but no water. At this time, the flood season should not have started yet, so there will be no problem?" Cao Lin Said.

"I hope so." Luo Yuan said in a deep voice.

The ocean occupies three-quarters of the earth, and there are tens of thousands of times more species than the land. Before the end of the world, the African elephant was the largest creature on land, but it was not ranked in the front of marine life. If the species is taken out, it can completely compare with land creatures.

Fortunately, marine life only lives in the ocean. Otherwise, if these mutated and terrifying creatures climb onto land, there will be no hope for human beings.

"However, this road still passes through Meishan Park, can't it be bypassed?" Cao Lin said.

"It doesn't matter, my family used to be there. Before the fall of Hedong City, the whole mountain was already sealed with cement." Ning Xiaoran whispered, before he finished speaking, his face was already red.

Everyone discussed for a while, and finally finalized the itinerary.

After resting for more than ten minutes, everyone started on the road again.

During the period, there was an accident on the road, and I encountered a large number of ants at the intersection.

This low-level creature, ignoring the monitor lizard's breath at all, rushed towards it like a tide. Each of these ants is about the size of a fist, their whole bodies are black and shiny, and they crawl fast. Not only the road, but also the buildings on both sides are crawling everywhere, so dense that it is impossible to count them all.

Even the monitor lizard backed away irritably and snorted incessantly in the face of this sharp-toothed group creature.

Luo Yuan and the others had no choice but to retreat a few streets away, and waited for the group of terrifying creatures to pass by before going back on the road. There were many fresh bloodstains and dense white bones on the road, without a trace of flesh and blood attached to them.

Luo Yuan couldn't help being thankful that he escaped in time, otherwise, even if he faced so many ants, he might not be able to escape.

The danger of mutated insects is no less than that of mutated beasts, and it is even more terrifying in his heart. He will never forget the scene that happened in Donghu City. Countless green beetles fell from the sky like gods of death, and the entire Donghu City was destroyed in a blink of an eye.

But fortunately, this group of ants was incomparable to the green beetle in terms of danger and destructive power, and it was just a small episode on the road.

When the darkness was about to fall, everyone finally approached the highway intersection.

Here is close to the suburbs, not far from the countryside.

At this time, everyone stopped subconsciously, and looked into the distance with shock on their faces. An indescribable big tree stood seven or eight kilometers away, and a white mist surrounded its branches, which looked misty. , looming, like a fairyland.

The huge canopy covers several kilometers of space, and a large area below is shrouded in a shadow, and the shadow has even extended to the suburbs.

The branches with a height of hundreds of meters or even kilometers seem to have experienced countless years. Even at a distance of seven or eight kilometers, Luo Yuan can still see the endless twisted scars on its trunk, and many of the crowns are scorched black. One piece, completely dead, Luo Yuan guessed that this was the effect of lightning, it may have experienced countless lightning strikes.

But still standing!

No matter how much Luo Yuan hated green plants after the apocalypse, he had to admit that this was a miracle of life!

"I always thought that only a banyan tree can form a forest, but compared with this tree, all the trees are scum." Huo Dong dreamed.

"This can't be the World Tree, right?" Wang Shishi exclaimed in a dreamy tone.

Luo Yuan didn't object this time. The trees growing like this are almost like myths, or they were originally developing like creatures in myths.

World tree, even if the world tree really appeared, he would not feel strange.

For this tree, Luo Yuan can no longer judge its level, but it is definitely not comparable to the ghost locust tree, even the dark blue level may not be able to describe eleven, he can only hope that this tree is harmless, just instinctive. Grow, because he found that if he wanted to take the highway next, he had to go through its shade for a long way.

"Don't sigh, find a safe place to rest for the night, and continue on the road tomorrow."

There are abandoned buildings everywhere here, and it is easy to find an empty room to rest, but it takes a lot of searching to be safe, and finally everyone found a four-star hotel with a basement.

This basement used to be the office area of ​​the hotel. Computers, printers and so on are still there, but no one is working anymore.

There was a thick layer of dust and black blood stains everywhere on the carpet, and the bones of humans or mutant beasts were scattered randomly. There were also all kinds of weapons, including five or six guns alone, and even There is a rifle.

But there were not many bullets, only the empty shells.

Luo Yuan could imagine that there should have been a not-so-fierce battle here not long ago, and the survivors ran out of bullets and were attacked by bloodthirsty mutant beasts.

Because there is no light at all here, it is dark, even if there is a flashlight, it will not be much better. Luo Yuan didn't want Huo Dong and ordinary people to take risks, so he personally checked it carefully, and took out the mutant beasts that hadn't left one by one. clean up.

Then he blocked the gate connecting the parking lot with the office area with a desk to prevent mutant beasts from suddenly entering.

When Luo Yuan checked the security, others chose the big office. The light emitted by the flashlight could not illuminate the whole space at all. Everyone silently rummaged through their luggage. The unfamiliar and dead environment and the white skeletons everywhere outside the door , making everyone feel a great sense of insecurity.

When Luo Yuan opened the door and came in, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The office seemed to be a little more angry because of Luo Yuan's entry.
