Epoch of Twilight

Before coming here, there were more than 20 soldiers here, but now, including Company Commander Xia, there are only four left. Everyone looked gloomy and tired, with a trace of sadness flashing in their eyes from time to time, but death is normal in the last days, especially for soldiers like them who have today but no tomorrow, facing the death of their comrades is already a part of life, They have long been used to this kind of life. After a short period of sadness, everyone started to get busy.

The remaining guns and ammunition were collected by the soldiers one by one, sorted into wooden boxes one by one, so that they could be loaded onto the truck at that time.

After a soldier picked up a weapon that had no owner and a shoe that fell on the ground, his eyes were moistened suddenly, he wiped them secretly, turned around and squatted down to cover up.

Infected by the soldiers, Mu Wenwen and Wang Shishi also did their best to help. No one spoke at the scene, and the atmosphere was heavy and depressing.

In this atmosphere, Luo Yuan lay down for a while, but couldn't lie down, and slowly stood up.

The sharp-eyed Wang Shishi hastily dropped a string of bullets and ran over. Company Commander Xia and the soldiers also stopped what they were doing, their faces a little stunned.

"Brother Luo, how are you?" Wang Shishi said in surprise.

"Don't worry, I'm almost recovered. I have a strong physique, and this injury will heal soon." Luo Yuan said to Wang Shishi with a smile.

This explanation is flawless, and it is also reasonable. Some evolutionaries really have amazing recovery abilities. Even if a hole is opened in the body, they can recover quickly. I am afraid Company Commander Xia and several soldiers are aware of this.

"It's great that you're fine. If the base hadn't sent you here this time, the entire army might have been wiped out this time. If you thank me, I won't say anything. We all owe you our lives." Company Commander Xia Grateful, his voice was a little hoarse, as if he had haggarded a lot.

"It's too serious. I'm saving myself. If I don't kill that giant snake, we'll all die." Luo Yuan shook his head and said, he didn't want to bear this kind of plain gratitude, and felt a little ashamed.

"Our soldiers have clear grievances and grievances. No matter what, you saved our lives." Company Commander Xia still said solemnly: "If you go back to the reconstruction area, you can come to us if you have any difficulties. We are building the 11th Brigade of the 18th Army 3 regiments and 8 companies, if we are still alive by then!"

Facing the grateful eyes of these people, Luo Yuan could only nod his head.

It seemed that Luo Yuan didn't care too much. Company Commander Xia pulled Luo Yuan over. Although his face was exhausted, he cheered up and said patiently: "You haven't lived in the reconstruction area, and you don't know the situation in the reconstruction area. There is a limited planned economy there now. , as well as the dual-track financial mechanism of receipts and currencies. In particular, strict control is imposed on key materials, which can only be purchased with tickets, including meat and grain. Nowadays, the supply of materials is tight, and many people can't even eat enough.

And we soldiers are born and die every day, and we are precarious, but there are some small privileges. If you look at the corpses of these sea beasts, if they are in the reconstruction area, so many level 5 mutated creature meats are enough to cause madness and panic buying in a city, but here they are worthless. Not worth it, except for our own use, most of them will be discarded.

Of course, this is the base in the enemy-occupied area, and we are performing special missions.

In the war zone over the reconstruction area, most of the mutant beasts will still be confiscated by the government, but in order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the soldiers and encourage civilians to join the army, they will be killed in proportion, but even so, the remaining number is still considerable. Almost half of the popular mutated animal meat comes from our army. Now you should understand! "

Luo Yuan nodded knowingly. The times have changed, and being a soldier is already a high-risk, high-paying occupation. It is no longer poor, but a special occupation with important resources. Everyone is well paid. If you want to make money, This is indeed a way to get involved with Company Commander Xia. However, he has been living in the occupied area, and money has been taken lightly. Luo Yuan thinks it is better to wait until he gets familiar with the situation in the reconstruction area.

Company Commander Xia found out that the other party was not interested, so he couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart, but when he thought about it, he felt that the other party didn't like these things. Such a powerful evolutionary person is an eye-catching character no matter where he is, and maybe even the government will pay attention to it. Pay attention, how can you worry about money, it seems that this favor cannot be given away.

"That giant snake, what are you going to do?" Luo Yuan asked, turning the subject.

The sixth-level mutant beast is an uncommon character even in the reconstruction area, and it is an important strategic material. Even Commander Xia has only seen such a one, but he hesitated for a moment, and he said: "This beast was killed. Of course it's up to you."

The centipede is dead but not stiff. At this time, the green-level giant snake is still moving and full of vitality, but the movement is much smaller than before. Now only the tail is still swaying. As for the upper body It was completely lying on the ground, and it took a long time to twitch.

"I just need to take a part, and you can drag the rest away," Luo Yuan shook his head and said, after all, he couldn't take away too much.

Then he stared closely at the dying giant snake, turned his head and said to several soldiers, "Do you have a knife?"

"Is this kind of saber allowed?" A soldier pulled out a foot-long short knife from his boots, and handed it to Luo Yuan with a look of awe.

After Luo Yuan took it, he touched the blade and shook his head in his heart. This knife may be very sharp among ordinary knives, but it can't be compared with Zhanmadao at all. Not to mention cutting the skin of green-level creatures, I am afraid that even blue-level creatures I'm afraid that's enough.

But now the Saber is still in the throat of the giant snake, and now it can only be used as it is, and it is better than nothing.

"Thank you, I will pay you back later!" Luo Yuan said casually.

"Ah... thank you, use it as you like, use it as you like." The soldier was not good at words, and said excitedly and somewhat incoherently.

Afterwards, Luo Yuan wiped his face, and the dried blood scabs on his face fell off one after another, revealing smoother and more delicate skin than a woman's, and walked quickly towards the giant snake with a short knife.

After walking for less than a minute, Luo Yuan was already close to the giant snake. The giant snake, which was majestic and imposing ten minutes ago, did not respond to Luo Yuan's arrival at this time. Luo Yuan noticed the position on the top of its head, revealing a small tip of the knife. It was obvious that the shocking knife earlier had pierced through its skull.

Luo Yuan didn't dare to be careless, holding a short knife, circled around it, and felt relieved when he saw that it didn't respond.

To be honest, this is the most gorgeous creature that Luo Yuan has seen so far. Every inch and every inch is mysterious and daunting. Each of its scales is the size of a football, shining silver. It has intricate gold background patterns on it.

With a wide mouth, a fiery red crown, a streamlined body shape, and gorgeous hair on the tail, Luo Yuan who stood in front of it felt a strange shock. Even though it was dead, its lingering power still lingered, and its breath was depressing. out of breath.

But even the living ones were killed by him, so how could he be afraid of this dead thing.

Luo Yuan tried several times, and found that the giant snake was indeed dead, but occasionally there would be some nervous twitches, but with his strength, it was no big deal, and then he threw down the short knife and turned the giant snake's head over , the handle of the saber was exposed.

Then, he pulled out the saber sharply.

like a statue.

He tried again, still nothing.

Only then did Luo Yuan notice that the giant snake barely shed much blood, and the wound caused by the Saber's insertion was also tightly closed, almost sticking to the Saber.

"It's a terrible self-healing ability. I'm afraid the saber is completely bonded to the muscle tissue inside." Luo Yuan guessed in his heart, and finally he had to use the little willpower left to cut open the surrounding muscles, and finally Pulled out the knife.

Holding the Saber in his hand, he suddenly felt very awkward. His familiarity with the Saber had already surpassed his own body. Even if it was a little bit lighter, he could clearly feel it. The material has changed, making him feel strange.

He carefully looked at the saber chopping knife, his face changed slightly. The Saber, which was originally black after synthesis, was found to be completely off-white now.

Luo Yuan felt very familiar with this color. If he remembered correctly, it was the original color of the Saber Saber. He used the identification technique to identify it uncertainly. Sure enough, the synthetic effect had disappeared, and it had completely changed into its original form.

Luo Yuan was secretly shocked by the change of the Saber.

The essence left after the synthesis, without thinking about it, was absorbed by the giant snake's body, it was a terrifying creature.

However, Luo Yuan was looking forward to the giant snake's body even more.

………………

Luo Yuan forcefully tore off the scales of the two giant snakes. Although these scales were only two to three millimeters thick, they were extremely heavy, each weighing about one kilogram. Moreover, Luo Yuan bent hard, because his strength was limited, so it was difficult to bend, but as the snake's defensive scales, it should be flexible.

The best material for synthetic knives not only requires hardness, but also requires extremely high toughness, otherwise it is easy to break. This scale is obviously a good material.

The bark of the Tianzhu tree last time was more than tough, but not hard enough. Although it is also a green-grade material, its sharpness is quite average. It is not bad for killing light-green creatures, but if you want to deal with green-grade creatures, It won't work, Luo Yuan has been dissatisfied, now that the knife has been rewashed, Luo Yuan can naturally choose better materials and synthesize it.

Luo Yuan chose the direction and used the body of the giant snake to cover it, so he didn't have to worry about being noticed by the soldiers.

Immediately, the synthesis began, and a total of five scales were consumed before and after. Soon, a saber that shone with silver and exuded scorching heat appeared in Luo Yuan's hands, and if you look carefully, you will find that the saber is not just It is silvery white, with complex and fine black background patterns on the surface, as if it is a natural fit with this knife, it is born with it, and it is full of a mysterious atmosphere.

Luo Yuan couldn't wait to use the identification technique.

"Flood pattern cutting saber."

"Material: 165cm alloy, blood crown dragon scales"

"Rarity: Green."

"Weight: 14kg."

"Attack Power: 36-41"

"Subsidiary effect 1: attack speed +2

"Subsidiary effect 2: Divide the soil and divide the water (passive), where it passes, the mud and rocks will automatically retreat, and the water will automatically separate. (weak effect)

"Equipment Requirements: Strength 14 points"

"Evaluation: This is a mysterious saber, it carries a mysterious power, although the power is weak."

Luo Yuan was pleasantly surprised to find that the attack power of the Saber had increased a lot, and even the attack speed had increased a little, which was a pleasant surprise.

When Luo Yuan saw the final evaluation and incidental effects of Zhan Sabao, he couldn't help being surprised.

He hurriedly tried it, but was disappointed. This knife does have a mysterious power that cannot be explained.

As soon as the knife was placed on the ground, the soil on both sides quickly parted, leaving a concave hole that was one foot deep and one inch wide. However, the effect on stones was not very good, as long as the target was as big as a fist, there was nothing that could be done.

And Luo Yuan couldn't figure out what's the use of this, he couldn't possibly drill into the ground!

Now he could only hope that the water diversion would be of some use, but there was no water here, and it was clearly not the time to experiment.

But apart from these abilities, the newly synthesized Saber is much better than before. Of course, the only pity is that the life-sucking ability of the Saber is gone, but it can be regarded as a loss and a gain. As for someone getting injured in the future , can only think of other ways, but they will return to the reconstruction area soon, maybe they don't need to take risks in the future.

Afterwards, Luo Yuan held the knife and began to cut the giant snake.

He is quite proficient in this kind of business now.

In order to avoid the conditioned reflex convulsions of the giant snake, after uncovering the scales on the neck, Luo Yuan groped for the position of the gap between the cervical vertebrae, gathered a little willpower and directly stabbed in, the central nervous system was immediately destroyed, and its body was tense. After a while, he couldn't move.

The safety hazard is eliminated, and the rest only needs to be patient.

The internal organs, snake gallbladder, and brain were all taken out by Luo Yuan one by one, and wrapped into small packages with the sliced ​​snake skin. These small packages were still wriggling and full of vitality. One of the small packages was particularly large. Jumping on the spot, jumping up one or two meters high every time, just when I didn't pay attention, I was jumped more than five meters away.

Luo Yuan quickly grabbed it back and opened the package, revealing a washbasin-sized heart inside, sometimes shrinking, sometimes expanding, bursting with surging power, even after taking it out for more than ten minutes, it was still full of vitality.

In order to prevent it from running around and making trouble, Luo Yuan gave it a knife and cut it in half.

"Huh!"

At this moment, something suddenly attracted Luo Yuan's attention.

It is a red-yellow solid about the size of a little finger, irregular in shape, hanging from the top of the left atrium of the heart, like a stone growing out of the heart.

"What is this?"

He pinched it with his fingers and pulled it out vigorously. He was surprised to find that the beating of the heart muscle immediately weakened as soon as the thing was lost.

After noticing this scene, Luo Yuan's face became serious, and he quickly used the identification technique.

"Active Energy Enrichment Body"

"Grade: Inferior"

"Weight: 5g."

"Evaluation: This is an inferior active energy-enriched body, which contains a lot of impurities. The active energy-enriched body is a more efficient means of energy storage than fat. Most of them exist in higher organisms above the green level. Through a large amount of eating and Absorbing other energy, they can store the excess active energy of the body for emergencies."
