Epoch of Twilight

Countless lightning bolts were absorbed by the huge canopy, and from a distance, the entire giant tree seemed to be lit up!

It's like a huge beam of light straddling the sky and the earth, it looks magnificent and shocking!

These electric lights are still spreading, and soon even the roots of the trees begin to light up, spreading rapidly towards this side, the terrifying energy makes this space a terrifying electric field, countless tiny electric arcs, breeding out of thin air!

Luo Yuan felt that his body was like a magnet, attracting a large number of drifting electric lights in the air to bloom on his body, and he was about to turn into a light man. He didn't dare to stay for a long time, and when he tiptoed, his body ran out like green smoke.

Fortunately, he didn't get too close when he landed. He just stood on the periphery of the tree root, only one or two kilometers away from the normal soil. After running at full speed, he was out of the range of the tree root in less than ten seconds.

He didn't stop, and continued to run wildly, because it was still not safe here.

The roots of this giant tree are buried deep in the ground, and only a small part is exposed. Looking at the high and raised ground like hills here, and the barren desolation here, it is obvious that there are countless roots buried underneath.

He ran wildly all the way, running for more than ten minutes, nearly hundreds of kilometers, before gradually stopping.

The plants here have grown normally, with luxuriant branches and leaves, apparently completely out of the range of the roots of the Lightning Tree.

With the downpour of rain on his head, he let the rain fall, quickly climbed up a big tree, stood on the top of the tree, and looked into the distance.

The dark clouds rolled over there, the lightning flashed and the thunder rumbled. At this distance, this huge and unimaginable lightning tree still seemed to be close in front of our eyes. At this moment, it exuded infinite brilliance, like a beam of light reaching the sky, connecting the sky and the earth. Under this cloud-covered sky, it seems to have become the only light source for this land!

Luo Yuan's heart trembled and he lost his mind for a long time.

Fortunately, this abnormal thunderstorm came and went quickly. Before a few drops of rain fell, it was coming to an end. In a few minutes, the dark clouds above the head disappeared miraculously quickly, and the sun shrouded the earth again.

The huge cloud-like canopy of the Lightning Tree appeared before Luo Yuan's eyes again, and the leaves on it were shining brightly, emitting tiny electric lights from time to time.

The entire body of the tree is still bright, but it is much dimmer than when it absorbed the lightning before, and it is still dim.

It exudes scorching heat, making this area full of smog and water vapor. It didn't take long for the whole giant tree to become faintly visible. From a distance, it looked like a sacred tree in a fairyland, giving people a feeling of unreality. !

At this time, he suddenly discovered that, from the beginning to the end, the system did not release any tasks for this giant tree.

This made him secretly startled!

The system never releases tasks of more than two orders of magnitude. Just like now, the released tasks are either level seven or eight, and those below level seven or above level eight are never displayed.

Obviously, this mysterious lightning tree is by no means below level seven, but at level nine (purple level) or above

Even at the eighth level, Luo Yuan would stay away. As for this unimaginable ninth-level life, it was completely out of his ability, even if it only appeared as a tree, how dare he underestimate it?

Just thinking about the terrifying lightning bolts it absorbed before, one can imagine how terrifying the energy it contains is. What's more, as shown by the detection technique, it also possesses a certain amount of intelligence.

Although he coveted the material on the giant tree very much, he didn't dare to predict what the consequences would be when he did it.

Prediction is not a panacea, two seconds of predicting is still useful for creatures with lightning-like reactions, but it is too short for this kind of plant-like mutant creatures with extremely long reflex arcs.

Perhaps, if you cut off a section of its roots, it might be fine at first, but after half a minute, the devastating attack comes instantly, and it will be too late to regret it at that time.

In the dangerous apocalypse, he is still alive until now because he acts according to his ability every time, and never takes risks when encountering dangers that he cannot face. As for the ghost-faced horse, it was entirely due to the influence of the mind turning into a rational state when the earth pulsed.

...

Luo Yuan was not in a hurry to leave, he just sat on the treetop and closed his eyes to rest.

This place is very close to the sea, and the rest of the journey is almost all in the sea. Except for those scattered islands in the vast sea with luck, there are few places to stay. Borneo.

Physical strength is easy to recover, but the recovery of will is a long process. He sat quietly on the tree.

Perhaps because of the proximity to the Lightning Tree, the mutated creatures were extremely small, and Luo Yuan didn't receive any disturbance until close to noon when Luo Yuan opened his eyes.

At this time, the willpower he had consumed before had fully recovered.

He glanced at the lightning tree in the distance. This big tree has begun to be covered with dark clouds again, ready to absorb lightning!

He sighed slightly, and looked at the lightning tree with some regret.

He unfastened his forehead plasma strap and hit the road again.

All the way to control and bypass the majestic lightning tree, twenty minutes later, there is already an endless sea in front of you!

The coast of the end of the world is not clear. A large number of plants extend from the land all the way to the shallow sea. Looking down from the sky, Luo Yuan can see that these plants are rooted in the sea water, forming a green sea forest with a width of tens of kilometers.

A large number of seabirds, covering the sky and the sun, are constantly circling above the woods, and they are constantly making harsh noises, making this place extremely noisy.

Groups of fish, like a cloud, shuttled quickly in the water, attracting waves of waves.

Further away, a huge vortex was spinning non-stop, and then a giant beast hundreds of meters long suddenly surfaced, raised its head and let out a roar like a siren, the surrounding waves churned, and was then shaken by the sound waves. Broken into a mist.

This is the sea, the most terrifying area in the last days!

Ninety-nine percent of life on Earth is here.

Not long after the end of the world, this place was the first to fall.

The vast ocean makes this place a stronghold of mutated creatures, mysterious and dangerous. You can't imagine how many terrifying lives are bred in this vast space?

Perhaps for human beings, this will always be a mystery, and only occasional satellite pictures can see a glimpse of them.

However, marine life is far enough away from humans that it cannot threaten humans for the time being.

Luo Yuan looked at all this with a solemn expression.

At this time, a huge seabird seemed to have discovered Luo Yuan's existence. With a flick of its wings, it shot towards Luo Yuan like an arrow, leaving a sonic boom cloud in place instantly. At this time, his speed was still far away. The unaccelerated fastest is just approaching the speed of sound.

In just a few seconds, the black and white seabird had already approached rapidly.

Luo Yuan frowned slightly. The faster the curvature flight speed is, the faster it is, but it is not without flaws. Apart from the most obvious slow acceleration, it is also extremely difficult to turn the direction.

He secretly clenched the handle of the knife, but he had no fear. This bird was far worse than the giant golden bird he saw in the lake before. The difference in strength between the two was too great. He didn't even feel nervous, and the corner of his mouth slightly sneered. , ready to wait for it to approach, and then teach it a death lesson!

But soon, his hand holding the handle of the knife loosened.

Luo Yuan had already seen the result from the foreknowledge, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face.

The next moment, the seabird passed right through him!

There was no collision or contact, as if Luo Yuan's existence was just a phantom, causing no hindrance at all,

The seabird circled the sky and seemed terrified, screaming!

Then, quickly get away from here!

Luo Yuan looked at the space bubbles around his body and the weak air flow inside, and couldn't help but understand.

To some extent, curvature flight is the movement of a piece of space. The inside of the space bubble is relatively independent of the outside space, and there is no communication between the two spaces. In other words, it can be regarded as two worlds separated.

Attacks outside the space bubble can't attack him, and similarly, he inside can't attack outside. With this characteristic, he doesn't need to avoid obstacles as carefully as before.

Thinking of this, Luo Yuan's heart brightened, he just felt that the sea and the sky are vast, let me roam!

He no longer had any scruples, and flew straight forward. As long as he didn't die and crossed those large gravitational celestial bodies with serious space interference, even if there was a mountain in front, he could pass through without hindrance.

As time went on, he started getting faster and faster.

Blossoming white clouds were quickly overtaken by him, and the ocean gradually blurred in his sight, forming a blue canvas full of lines!

He stared closely at the scattered small islands in the ocean, compared them with the satellite map in his memory, and occasionally adjusted his direction. Other than that, he enjoyed the pleasure brought by the high speed.

The distance was faster than he had imagined, and after only fifty minutes of flying, a huge island had already appeared in front of him.

Before the end of the world, Borneo was the third largest island in the world, with an area of ​​more than 700,000 square kilometers. Now that the sea level has risen, although the area has shrunk greatly, it is still astonishingly large. The entire island is about 600 kilometers long from east to west, and its width from north to south is There are still more than 400 kilometers.

The entire island is densely forested, lush and exudes vitality, which also heralds danger.

Luo Yuan landed from the sky and landed on the coast.

Although the power of his curvature flight is pitifully small, and the space fluctuations are negligible, like a small ripple appearing on the sparkling water, it is inconspicuous at all, but it is difficult to guarantee that foreign civilizations have unique detection methods. For the sake of caution, he chose the furthest from the island. Landing on the terminal, and approaching by land.

As soon as Luo Yuan landed, a crab nearby foamed at the mouth and attacked him with teeth and claws.

It is said to be a crab because it has a metal-like carapace and eight claws that are like steel sickles. Several claws run quickly, like countless blades, moving in the forest for a while.

Luo Yuan drew his saber out of its sheath, took a step forward, crossed tens of meters in an instant, and came to it. Immediately, he pointed at its carapace and slashed down with the saber. The invisible space fluctuated along the middle of its two eyes. , flashed away.

This two-three-story behemoth was split into two in an instant!

A few crabs nearby who were about to encircle them were so frightened that they fled quickly and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye!

...

This is the boundary line between the ocean and the land. Many of the mutated creatures here have the characteristics of marine life, such as shells lying on the ground like hills, giant beasts that look like lobsters and are covered in armor, and they are obviously from fish. Newly evolved amphibians.

These creatures are not only huge, but also weird and bizarre. Luo Yuan, who is used to seeing mutant land beasts born and bred, was shocked to see them.

He didn't dare to stay here for a long time, so he quickly left the place with his saber in hand.

After passing tens of kilometers, the marine life here gradually decreased.

The building of the extraterrestrial civilization is located at the bottom of a mountain range in the center of Borneo, about 300 kilometers away. Luo Yuan estimates that with his footsteps, he can reach it before dark.

Before the end of the world, Borneo was sparsely populated, with lush plants, mostly forests, and the country it belonged to was not a military power. It was one of the first areas to fall, and it was far more dangerous than other areas he had traveled to before. .

Along the way, the system has issued three missions in succession.

But at this time, the extraterrestrial civilization was nearby, and he had no intention of completing the task at all. He avoided it all the way, and passed by without stopping. When it was close to five o'clock in the evening, his speed gradually slowed down, and his movements became more cautious. .

Because the extraterrestrial civilization buildings are in the valley ahead!

He continued walking for a few more minutes, before turning over the mountain, he stopped, found a cave nearby, and got into it.

At this time, the sky is not completely dark, and it is not time to act!

Perhaps for extraterrestrial civilization technology, whether it is dark or not will not affect the detection of the outside world, but the life that manipulates technology is prone to neglect, no matter what life is, there is always a time to rest.

Luo Yuan doesn't know whether this extraterrestrial civilization is like humans, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, or some kind of intelligent life that is afraid of light, which is completely opposite to the routine of human beings, but at least before the specific information is known, it can operate in the dark. Let him feel at ease a lot.

The cave is very narrow and can only fit one person.

Luo Yuan gently held down a small half-meter-long mutant beast, no matter how hard it struggled at this time, it could not escape Luo Yuan's control.

Soon, there was a crisp bone cracking sound, and the back of its neck was gently twisted off by Luo Yuan.

Tonight is dangerous and he has to keep his spirits up, stay in top form and give it his all.

He plucked the fur from the neck, lowered his head to bite off its arteries, and swallowed the blood. The sweet smell made him faintly sick, and he forced it down, and soon all the blood in its body was sucked dry by him. Then throw the body far outside.

There is no way to light a fire here, which is likely to attract the attention of extraterrestrial civilizations. Even if the possibility is extremely low, he cannot and dare not do so.

Extraterrestrial civilizations are far more dangerous than an eighth-level life form. Once he is noticed, he may only have a dead end, and the end will never be good.

He took a deep breath, grinned silently, his teeth were covered with blood, making him look murderous!

It was getting dark, and the jungle soon became pitch black.

Luo Yuan sat in the cave, closed his eyes and rested his mind, while recharging his energy, he waited for the night to fall.

As time passed by, Luo Yuan sat cross-legged like a sculpture, motionless.

When it was one or two o'clock in the evening, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at his watch.

Standing up quietly, he got out of the cave, like a black ghost, approaching the valley soundlessly.

He has never been here before, but the terrain here has already been modeled and analyzed countless times by humans, even if it is just an inconspicuous slope or a raised rock, he already knows it well.

When he was about to approach the target, Luo Yuan was already completely lying on the ground, crawling forward, moving forward inch by inch,

Half an hour later, he gently pushed aside the weeds in front of him, and looked quietly!

There was no moonlight tonight, and the thick darkness soaked the jungle like water. His pupils had shrunk to the extreme, as black as a black hole, trying to catch any subtle light.

Under the cover of the jungle, a dark gray semi-circular building loomed in Luo Yuan's sight.
