Epoch of Twilight

The entire battle took only thirty seconds from contact to the opponent's fall, but Luo Yuan was sweating profusely, and his body was steaming, as if he had just been fished out of a sauna.

Luo Yuan seemed to knock it down easily, but this was just using his own strengths to attack its weaknesses. In fact, this giant is quite terrifying.

Whether it is its mysterious invisibility ability or the strange attack in its eyes, they are completely different from ordinary mutant creatures. It is as if mutant beasts have the ability to evolve, especially the invisibility ability, which can perfectly deceive Luo Yuan's perception , this is the first time he encountered this situation.

You must know that the principle of discrimination between perception and naked eyes is completely different. Pure optical invisibility can deceive the eyes, but it cannot hide from perception, because perception is more similar to waves, but this giant, even if it was close by before, could not be found , if it wasn't for the opponent's slight flaws under the oppression of the momentum, I am afraid that the battle will be over before it is fought.

As for the strange attack in those eyes, even though he didn't touch him, he still has lingering fears when he thinks about Guangguang's feeling of approaching death. It's like walking on the edge of life and death, and the danger can be imagined.

When the battle was over, everyone quickly ran over.

"Are you not injured?" Huang Jiahui asked with a worried face, seeing Luo Yuan shook his head.

She breathed a sigh of relief: "I was scared to death, how could there be such a creature!"

She looked at the huge corpse of the giant with curiosity and some fear: "Is this a mutant? So... so big!"

The corpse was lying on the ground, fully seven meters long, its limbs were thick and powerful, and it carried a strong sense of power. Even after it died, it still exuded a terrifying aura. It was covered with green hair, and the hair on its head The hair in the position is a bit sparse, with a stubby dark green horn growing on it, and the most noticeable thing is a string of polished stone chains hanging on his chest.

This is obviously a trace of wisdom. I am afraid that apart from mutants, other mutant beasts are unlikely to do such things.

"No, how do I feel, it seems a little bit different!" Huo Dong hesitated and said: "No matter how mutated a mutant is, he still has some human characteristics, just like Chen Xianfeng, who can always see the appearance of a person. This and There is too much difference between people, I am afraid it is a mutant beast."

"It seems to be true!" Cao Lin didn't dare to approach, but pointed at the other party's hands and feet from a distance: "You see, it only has four fingers, but each has five joints, and the toes are the same."

Everyone quickly found more evidence, such as the six short tails that had not yet degenerated on its body, and the no obvious nose except for two holes.

The atmosphere suddenly cooled down, no one spoke anymore, shock and fear appeared on everyone's faces.

"Will you go and see Zhao Yali?" At this moment Wang Xiaguang broke the silence and said to Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan sighed, nodded, and quickly ran over.

Zhao Yali squatted beside Lao Huang's body, sobbing softly, touching its increasingly cold body, tears flowed out uncontrollably.

Lao Huang's body has not recovered from his injuries, and he barely supported himself along the way. When encountering a high-level creature, if it was an ordinary mutant beast, it would have already escaped, and it would not rush over recklessly, but its owner, Zhao Yali, was here, so it had no choice but to rush, and was hit by the terrifying light in the giant's eyes. , Those who did not resist died, and died silently.

"Are... are you okay?" Luo Yuan walked to her side and squatted down, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly. He knew that since the end of the world, Lao Huang, who is a mutant beast, has always been her greatest reliance. With the loyal protection of this mutant beast, she was able to come to the present safely in the dangerous end of the world. It's not too much for my relatives.

"Woooo..." Zhao Yali finally broke down emotionally, and hugged Luo Yuan, crying hoarsely, tearing the liver and lungs, which made people feel moved.

Several women nearby also had red eyes and couldn't hold back their tears.

Luo Yuan touched the already stiff old Huang, feeling a little uncomfortable, sighed and said, "Let's take a last look at it, we'll bury it later!"

Zhou Yicheng seemed to want to say something, but seeing the expressions of other people around him, he finally closed his mouth tightly.

The pothole was naturally dug by the monitor lizard, and it was directly opened on the sloping mountain wall next to it. This time the monitor lizard did not escape at all, and actively used its claws to throw the mountain wall out of a big hole. The death of Huang Huang seemed to have affected It's emotional, it became extraordinarily silent, and it didn't show any impatience from the beginning to the end.

When Huang was thrown into the pothole and his body was buried by gravel, the monitor lizard lowered its head and sniffed at the grave, then raised its head and let out a loud roar, as if it was sending Lao Huang off.

Zhao Yali was crying beyond human form, and Lao Huang's departure was a huge blow to her.

The tombstone is a whole piece of rough stone with one side cut off. It is more than three meters high. After Luo Yuan asked Zhao Yali what she meant, he wrote: "The tomb of the loyal dog Lao Huang!"

After everything was over, the monitor lizard did a jaw-dropping thing. It ran to the giant’s corpse and began to bite crazily. Soon, the entire belly was torn open by it, and the internal organs flowed all over the floor, and then began to gulp. Swallow internal organs.

The scene was bloody, and the faces of several children were pale, and they dared not look any further.

Huang Jiahui gave him a tug, because the creature was in human form, and she was afraid of leaving the monitor lizard with the idea that humans could eat it. But this time Luo Yuan didn't stop it, maybe something hurt his kind, the death of Lao Huang greatly stimulated the monitor lizard. Soon all the internal organs were hollowed out by the monitor lizard, and it stopped.

Luo Yuan drove the bloody monitor lizard aside, walked to the giant's head, and cut off the small horn on the top of the head with a blade. This small dark green horn was particularly eye-catching, and Luo Yuan noticed it at a glance, and then Its eyes were dug out. These eyes can send out strange attacks, which may have a special purpose. As for other bones and flesh, Luo Yuan is not very interested.

It's not because of any taboo against humanoid creatures. After living in the apocalypse for so long, how can there be such boring thoughts, as long as they are not human and not poisonous, they can be eaten. But at this time, they still need to hurry. With these flesh and blood, there is a strong bloody smell all the way, which may cause unnecessary troubles.

The boulder has been broken, and the passage will be much easier. In less than half an hour, the giant lizard cleared the highway to allow it to pass.

Everyone climbed onto the monitor lizard and started on the road again.

The rain had stopped unconsciously, and the moonlight shone through the blockade of layers of dark clouds, bringing a glimmer of light to the darkness.

Traces of villages appeared from time to time around, dilapidated walls, broken glazed tiles, and decayed bricks and stones. These were hidden in the dense forest, and as Luo Yuan and the others passed quickly all the way, they appeared and disappeared. With the passage of time, there are more and more traces of buildings on both sides, the plants are gradually sparse, and dilapidated tall buildings have gradually appeared in front of them!

The water level here has risen rapidly, and some low-rise buildings have been submerged by the water, and even a long section of the expressway has been covered by water.

"Have you reached the suburbs?" Huo Dong asked uncertainly, looking at the unrecognizable city full of stagnant water.

"It seems so. I've been here before." Wang Xiaguang looked at it carefully for a while before saying.

Luo Yuan stood up and looked into the distance, except for some barely supported tall buildings, the place he looked at was a vast expanse of whiteness, with floods everywhere, is the military base still there? His face was a little ugly.

Zhou Yicheng seemed to have guessed what Luo Yuan was thinking, and asked the soldiers next to him to help him up: "This is close to the sea, the military base is not here, and it is in Baoshan District, the highest altitude, which will not be affected for the time being. But we don't have much time left. , given the current situation, I'm afraid they are already preparing to evacuate, we must get there as soon as possible."

Luo Yuan nodded solemnly in his heart.

He took Zhou Yicheng's map and looked at it carefully. This place is still 30 to 40 kilometers away from Baoshan District. Fortunately, this is an urban area. It is not like a highway that has to stop when it encounters collapse or traffic jams. And here it is Finally, due to the flood, the animal hordes had already disappeared. Although the road was difficult, at least they should be able to reach their destination before dawn.

After getting off the high speed, Luo Yuan found that the water level here had reached the monitor lizard's thigh, about three or four meters deep.

The vines on both sides of the street are growing luxuriantly. This may be their last carnival. As the sea level continues to rise, they will sink to the bottom of the sea along with the largest city in the East.

Except for the small insects the size of rice grains floating like smoke on the water surface, few other land creatures can be seen here. Most of the land creatures have already migrated to higher altitudes. The huge water splashes that were raised, they quickly dissipated as if frightened, and soon gathered from another place.

The giant lizard walked past the street corner, and Wang Shishi suddenly pulled Luoyuan away: "Look there!"

Luo Yuan turned his head and looked, it was a big tree hundreds of meters high, with luxuriant branches and leaves, except for the roots protruding from the water, there was nothing unusual about it, but after looking at it for a while, he was surprised to find that it was running for its life .

This is a strange big tree, the entire tree root was uprooted by it, and it staggered forward like a foot.

It's a pity that it moves too slowly, it takes almost a few minutes to take a step, and there is no root system to fix it, causing its trunk to sway constantly, and it may fall down at any time, and I don't know that it has gone How long, but at such a slow speed, there is no way to escape.

Everyone watched quietly, and as the giant lizard gradually moved away, it gradually disappeared from sight.

In the distance, a 30-storey dilapidated building finally couldn't withstand the erosion of the sea water, and fell down with a bang. It hit the water surface and splashed water tens of meters high. The impact of the water flow caused a chain reaction. , a series of collapses occurred nearby.

This made Luo Yuan feel a little vigilant, and asked the monitor lizard to walk towards the area with few buildings as much as possible.

These buildings have long since decayed from their foundations, and they are crumbling to the point of their last breath. At this time, even a gust of wind, a slight vibration, or a small wave can easily destroy them.

There was a lot of rubbish floating on the surface of the water. An empty plastic mineral water bottle was swirling incessantly under the eddy of the current, and then was rushed to the distance by a wave. The salty sea breeze, filled with the breath of the sea, makes people subconsciously feel that they are walking by the sea. Seeing all the ruins in front of him, Luo Yuan felt a sense of civilization being destroyed and the vicissitudes of life.

In fact, it is true!

Everyone didn't speak all the way, just quietly watching the last afterglow of this most prosperous city in China!
