Epoch of Twilight

Chapter 381: Night

Before dark, Luo Yuan found a place to stay for tonight more than ten kilometers away.

The cave is on the side of the cliff, and there are vines growing nearby, covering the entrance of the cave tightly, making it easy to ignore.

Luo Yuan pushed aside the vines, and as soon as he entered the cave, he was taken a few steps back by a rotten musty smell. At the same time, several low-level mutant beasts that looked like mice fled away from him quickly. He glanced at it, didn't care, and let him run away.

After his nose got used to it a bit, he walked into the cave. The ground and the cave walls were covered with vines extending from the outside, making them look soft when stepped on.

Perhaps this cave is too well covered by vines. In such a large cave, there are only a few low-level mutant beasts that have just escaped, and no large mutant beasts live there.

The cave is very deep, for the sake of safety, Luo Yuan continued to investigate deeply.

As the light became darker, the vines under the feet gradually became thinner, revealing the original appearance of the cave.

Luo Yuan kicked a sleeper that was almost completely rotten, and he could see that there were still two half-corroded rails on it. After walking forward for tens of meters, a car that had completely fallen apart appeared in front of him. A half-rusted iron wheel lay powerlessly on the ground, with a few scattered bones beside it.

All signs indicate that this place seems to be an abandoned mine, and there should have been an attack here before it was abandoned.

Ten meters further ahead, the cave was already blocked by a concrete wall.

Luo Yuan guessed that this wall was probably built when the end of the world first appeared. Now that two or three years have passed, the wall has been corroded quite severely, and because of the damp environment, it looks a little foamy and swollen, and the surface is full of cracks , perhaps with a slight push, it will collapse.

He probed with his senses, and there was nothing behind the wall. He didn't find anything, so he retreated.

He is not a person who is overly curious, and he has no interest in finding out the truth. Besides, with his current strength, even if there is any terrifying existence behind the wall, he will not be afraid at all. After all, no matter how strong he is, he can never be the top eighth-level mutant beast, right? .

And below the eighth level, except for the seventh level which may be a little dangerous, the rest of the creatures, to Luo Yuan, are just delivering food and killing one by one.

Next, Luo Yuan cornered the corners of the mine, cleaned up the insects and ants living here with momentum, went out again, picked up a lot of dead branches and leaves, and hugged the mine.

The mutant hiding in the treetop not far away saw Luo Yuan busy, she scratched her head, her face was full of confusion, seeing that Luo Yuan walked into the mine this time, she didn't show up for a long time, so she waited patiently After a while, she gradually became restless.

She looked around for a while, hesitated for a while, and jumped towards the entrance of the cave. Finally, he jumped onto a big tree next to the mine, staring at the mine tightly, as if he wanted to see what this strange-looking fellow was doing through the gaps in the vines.

It's a pity that the vines outside the mine are too dense, no matter how you look, you can't see the slightest trace of the other party.

...

Luo Yuan piled the fallen leaves together, his will concentrated, and there seemed to be an invisible fluctuation in the air, and the fallen leaves suddenly ignited without fire. He put a few slender dead branches, and soon a fire was raised.

With his abnormal eyesight that can see in the dark, naturally there is no need for flames. It's just a human habit, always yearning for the light, unless it's raining, or generally at night, Luo Yuan will habitually light a bonfire.

It was getting dark, and it seemed to be windy outside.

The location of this mine is not good. It is located at the mouth of several mountain peaks. When the wind blows through here, there will always be ghosts and wolves howling.

As the strong wind blows through the mine, the vines hanging from the entrance of the cave flutter with the wind, leaving countless shadows under the campfire, like ghost claws.

At this time, the crisp sound of dead branches snapping sounded outside the cave, and soon a slender figure appeared outside.

She kept wandering around the entrance of the cave, and occasionally looked into the cave through the gaps in the vines.

A smile appeared on the corner of Luo Yuan's mouth, he didn't need to think about who was outside, he picked up a dead branch and put it on the fire, and didn't care about her, he believed that this timid and cautious mutant would come in eventually .

Sure enough, it didn't take long before the vines hanging outside were pulled away, and a nimble figure flashed lightly and entered the mine. Luo Yuan was like a kitten that would explode at any moment.

Soon, she walked to the corner and squatted down.

It can be seen that this mutant is not afraid of flames, but she is also thinking about it. After all, she was also a human before. Although the human memory is not there, there are still remnants in the subconscious.

Luo Yuan didn't do anything that could arouse the mutant's vigilance, nor did he try to talk to her. After throwing a few sticks of dry wood into the fire, he closed his eyes and used his will to temper his body. Of course, he didn't dare to trust the mutants completely, and he always had a little energy to focus on the outside world.

The reason why mutants are no longer classified as human beings is not only because of the animalization of their appearance, but also their personality has been invaded by animal nature. Although she behaved quite harmlessly all the way, in essence she is no different from the carnivorous mutant beasts outside, weak and strong Food is her true nature.

One of the reasons why they behaved harmlessly along the way was that the two of them looked similar so that she thought they were of the same kind. The other reason was that Luo Yuan acted much stronger than her. For the sake of it, his life may be saved, but it is almost unavoidable for a mutant to face a person who looks similar to the opposite sex, driven by his biological reproductive instinct, and some compulsive unspeakable things happen.

...

I don't know if it's because of the four-dimensionalization of the brain, or because of the wind, food and shelter during this period of time. During this period of time, he found that his will has improved rapidly, and it was not obvious when he was flying. See the subtler beings.

Like before, he could only see tissues like capillaries and lymphatic capillaries at most, and even with these, he could only see a small part of the larger front end, and he was powerless at the end.

But now, he can clearly see the entire capillary, as well as the red blood cells flowing inside.

If the red blood cells are still insignificant under the microscopic vision of the will, and cannot be seen if you don't pay attention, then the somatic cells that are much larger than the red blood cells are much clearer, and each of them is connected into a body the size of a sesame seed. Cells, like neatly arranged soldiers, have a panoramic view

However, the internal vision of the will at this cell level consumes an astonishing amount, like a leaking reservoir. In just ten minutes, more than half of the will is consumed. Although there are a lot of internal vision cells, the number is calculated in the millions. But if it is really counted, the scope of coverage is not even a small muscle.

After a while, Luo Yuan opened his eyes, touched a tiny muscle in his arm, and clenched his fists. It seemed to be more handy, and his reaction seemed to be a little faster. Of course, this was more likely an illusion.

Perhaps only when all the cells in the whole body are infiltrated with willpower can it show obvious effects.

He glanced at the mutant, she was still sitting in the corner, at this moment she was polishing her nails on the rock boredly, after polishing for a while, she looked at her in front of her eyes, and then started to polish her nails again.

Her nails are the same blue as the scales, but the color is extremely dark, close to ink blue. The nails are sharp and slender, extending five or six centimeters from the nail cap. Such long nails would have been curled up and deformed by human beings. But in her hands, it was straight and sharp, looking like terrifying spikes.

This is obviously her weapon, perhaps useless against large mutant beasts, but it is deadly enough for small mutant beasts.

Luo Yuan looked away, seeing that the bonfire was about to go out, he added another piece of firewood.

The slight movement made the mutant's body stiffen a little. After glancing at Luo Yuan, his eyes turned to his nails.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, almost covering the roar of the beasts in the jungle at night. A few vines at the entrance of the cave were violently shaken by the wind, making crackling noises. Fortunately, the entrance of the cave was completely out of the wind direction, so there was no effect.

He looked at the time, and it was almost eight o'clock, so he took out the tent from his backpack, opened it and lay down after setting it up.

At this time, the color of the tent was already completely different from the original one. Since stepping into the wild, he has synthesized all the things that can be synthesized with him. This tent is naturally no exception. Don't look at the material of the tent. At first glance, the level is actually as high as level seven, especially the few skeletons supporting the tent, which are completely composed of the hardest skulls of level seven mutant beasts.

Even if Luo Yuan was completely asleep at night, ordinary mutant beasts would never imagine invading the tent silently.

Not long after he lay down, he snored.

The night was getting darker, and after an unknown amount of time, the mutant who had been curled up in a corner suddenly opened his eyes and stood up silently.

The erect pupils reflected the yellow light in the dark night. She glanced at the tent, then bent her body and walked towards the entrance of the cave with light and soundless steps. Suddenly, she stopped and listened carefully.

There was deep anxiety on her face, and her eyes were full of horror.

For her, this hole was really too big, unlike her previous den, which was only big enough for her alone, even if there were mutant beasts coming in that were about the same size as hers, she could still deal with them.

And this hole is too wide, not only small mutant beasts can come in, but also those extremely terrifying behemoths can also come in, which makes her feel very insecure.

Hearing the terrifying howls of beasts outside made her restless, she wanted to leave here and find a new hole, but she hesitated and dared not go out, finally she hesitated, and lay down next to Luo Yuan's tent, as if this could give her a better life. She feels safe.

In the darkness, Luo Yuan opened his eyes and slowly closed them again.

...

After a night of nothing, the next day, when Luo Yuan opened the tent, the mutant obviously woke up earlier than her, and had already retreated into the corner.

He stowed the tent and put it in his backpack. He took a few sips of water from the water bottle, and then closed it. Suddenly, he remembered that the mutant seemed to have not drunk water all day, so he took a bottle of pure water from his backpack and threw it over.

It was one of three bottles of emergency water prepared for him by the reconstruction zone, and it is still sealed.

The mutated person got used to the food yesterday, and quickly caught it reflexively. It turned out that what was thrown was not food this time, and she showed a hint of disappointment on her face, but she was not low in IQ, so she quickly noticed the liquid inside.

Holding the bottle of purified water, she shook it a few times curiously, flipped through it repeatedly, and then opened her mouth to bite, breaking this rare plastic bottle before the end of the world.

At this time, Luo Yuan, who was holding the same bottle of purified water in his hand, was about to show her how to use it. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help opening his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, she still knew that there was water in it, so she pointed her mouth at the opening of the plastic bottle and kept pouring water into her mouth.

The clear liquid dripped down from the corner of her mouth, leaving a puddle of water on the ground. Such a scene was completely caused by **** Luo Yuan glanced at it, and quickly avoided it.
