Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Journey

On April 10, 2150, although it was already spring, the wind in the early morning still carried a hint of coolness, and several people who had awakened their abilities did not feel cold due to the increase in physical fitness, but the only fruit that had not yet awakened was shivering a little from the cold, and they couldn't help but tighten their clothes.

There was a light rain just last night, and after the rain, the grass that had grown on the side of the road, the blades of grass had already spread over the lawn and stretched out, blocking everyone's way. An Cheng walked at the front, and the scimitar in her hand became very sharp with the blessing of her ability, and she could cut down a large giant blade of grass with just a random flick.

Xiaowen walked in the center of the team, her spiritual power had increased a lot under the continuous use of the past few days, and the detection range had reached a radius of about twenty meters, which was twice as much as before.

Wei Qingqing walked while talking to Hu Xiaoyun about his own affairs. It turned out that her parents divorced when she was very young, and her grandmother brought her up, and her grandmother became her closest person in the world. Since the end came, Wei Qingqing has been worried about her grandmother all the time, but her home is 300 kilometers away from the capital, and she can't reach it by herself.

Wei Qingqing came out this time, just to find a team that also wanted to go to the capital, with her identity as a water system ability, basically no team would reject her. After hearing Hu Xiaoyun talk about their plans, Wei Qingqing said that she could act with them first until she found a new team.

Du Jiujiu walked at the end, the muscles of her whole body were always tense, and while listening to their conversation, she was alert to the situation around her. Although Xiaowen's detection showed that there were no very powerful creatures in their vicinity, Du Jiujiu always felt as if something was staring at her.

Most of these evolved insects have a very keen sense, and after feeling the dangerous aura coming from the people of this group, most of them hide their bodies in the grass and leaves. There were a few mosquitoes that were not afraid of death who coveted their blood, and they were easily burned into charcoal by Hu Xiaoyun.

The trees and flowers outdoors may be due to the different environments, and most of them are taller and larger in evolution, so that they can more easily compete with other plants for sunlight, but plants that actively attack humans are much rarer.

Obviously, everything seemed so normal, but the uneasiness in Du Jiujiu's heart became more and more intense. She suddenly thought of a question, it had been ten days since the end came, if the danger from the outside world was only this level, why did not the country send armed forces to save them? There must be something they haven't noticed, where......

Du Jiujiu kept looking around, and cold sweat was already running down her cheeks.

"There is Xiaowen's mental power scan within twenty meters, there should be no problem, and the farther away is blocked by grass and trees, and no creature will find us, so ...... It's heavenly! Du Jiujiu thought in his heart and looked up suddenly.

I saw more than a dozen calf-sized birds hovering in the sky, covered with brown markings, their eyes full of red light, staring at them tightly, ready to attack.

Du Jiujiu's heartbeat suddenly missed a beat, and she shouted to the few people next to her in a low voice and hurriedly: "Don't look up, hurry, run to a place with many trees!" ”

The morning sun was setting obliquely, and the birds had just hidden their shadows in the shadows of the trees, so that she had not noticed them.

As soon as Du Jiujiu's words fell, the big bird in the sky, which was larger than the other birds and seemed to be the leader, seemed to notice that they had been discovered, and screamed loudly, this chirp was like giving an order, and the big birds that were originally hovering followed behind the leader bird and swooped down in unison.

One or two, Du Jiujiu may not take it to heart at all, but there are so many of them, although she has no problem protecting herself, it is difficult to take care of her companions around her.

Although he heard Du Jiujiu's warning, Guoguo still subconsciously looked at the sky after hearing the birdsong. I saw a group of huge bird monsters rushing towards them together, and they were black and oppressive, and they were very terrifying.

Guoguo was immediately frightened, and accidentally tripped on a thick blade of grass at the ankle and fell to the ground.

At this moment, the big bird in the air was already approaching the ground, and the leading big bird flew in front and rushed straight towards Guoguo, who was lying on the ground, powerless.

"Guoguo!" Seeing this, Du Jiujiu, who had already run under the tree, hurriedly rushed back, pulled out the long knife behind him and slashed at the leading bird.

However, the expected blood did not splash, and the great bird, as if it had wisdom, used its hard claws to remove the blade from the side. Immediately, the eagle-like beak went to Du Jiujiu's eyes.

"Get out of here!" The long knife in Du Jiujiu's hand didn't have time to swing out again, so he had to clench his left hand into a fist and smash it towards the bird's head.

Since the last time he was unconscious, the energy in Du Jiujiu's body has reached as much as five times that of when he first woke up, and he punched violently, and the fist wind he brought up blew on the big bird's body like a knife.

But the leader bird was not so easy to deal with, and its feathers all seemed to be strengthened, and it did not move in the strong wind. Du Jiujiu punched the bird on the head, just like hitting an iron plate.

However, the violent force still knocked it away. The leader bird chirped violently, and lay on the ground with a languid expression.

Du Jiujiu raised his long knife, and was about to deal it a fatal blow, but there was a chaotic sound of flapping wings behind him. Seeing that the situation was not good, Du Jiujiu hurriedly turned around to defend, but found that there were eight or nine big birds attacking her at the same time.

Du Jiujiu looked at Guoguo, who was frightened on the side, frowned, and had to lift the long knife and rush forward.

And the other seven big birds all attacked the remaining few people, although the four of them were all abilities, but Xiaowen's spiritual detection and Wei Qingqing's water system abilities were almost no attack power, and only An Cheng and Hu Xiaoyun were struggling to support them.

Although Hu Xiaoyun's explosive fireball attack power is strong, it has the fatal weakness of long charging time, and when Hu Xiaoyun is preparing for it, he can only rely on An Cheng to deal with the seven mutant big birds alone.

After all, An Cheng is not a pure power-type ability like Du Jiujiu, and her attacks are better than mysterious and changeable, rather than strong attacks.

Although An Cheng's weapons are sharp, the evolutionary direction of these birds' defensive focus happens to restrain her. She had to use all her strength to break through the big bird's defenses, and after killing two big birds in a row, An Cheng couldn't help but slowly show fatigue.
