Early the next morning after the battle, Lang Hua's team set off deep into the jungle.

After the battle at the Taifeng gas station, the survivors were sparsely populated, but they were about to reach the end, so their mental outlook was much better.

People walked one after the other on the path carved out by their predecessors, and the only sound in their ears was the heavy breathing of their companions and the subtle crackling of dead branches under their feet. There are not only second-order abilities such as Lei Li and Lang Hua in the team, but also ordinary people like Duan Qing who have just entered the evolution stage, so the speed of travel can never be raised.

After the outbreak of the cataclysm, there was always a gray mist of varying shades. The fog lingers between the mountains and forests, and it is cloudy and grayish-white because of the low temperature in the early morning. From a distance, the dense mist swells with the mountain wind, revealing the tall cedar trees from time to time. It was as if an invisible beast was opening its bloody mouth and quietly devouring the entire mountain.

And it was at this moment that the survivor team followed Lang Hua's footsteps and firmly entered this Fengwei Mountain jungle.

The originally bottomless fog, in fact, when people get closer, they will find that the visibility here is actually quite good. Although it is early winter, there are still many hardy trees in the jungle, and many small branches and leaves are mixed with people's heads, covering the world outside the jungle.

After walking for a while, I never heard a few bird calls, which made people's hearts flutter. Duan Qing's eyes widened to pay attention to the movements around her, and nervously pulled her younger brother Duan Hei's sleeve. And the others are not much better, because they have already seen the horror of the end times, so they are 200% vigilant against possible monster attacks at any time, causing the atmosphere in the team to become more and more silent and depressing.

In the dim woods, there are only gray-brown cedar trees, and the accumulated leaves under the trees have accumulated a thick layer, and the dew and mist have enveloped them for many days, forming a humus smell like rotten wood.

Lang Hua, Lin Wenjin, and Yang Bensheng spread out in the shape of "Pin" to open the way in front, and the end of the line was guarded by swords and swords, and the rest of the people who were escorted in the center. Haiping and Lan Xi were given the awakening potion by Lang Hua last night, and now they have become capable people. When the ability awakened, it healed a lot of their internal injuries, so that the state of the two people not only returned to the peak, but also went further.

However, compared to Lan Xi, who volunteered to take care of Yang Xiaoxiao, Haiping was more silent at this time, and he was alone in the team with a knife on his back, not knowing what he was thinking.

Except for the few crystal nuclei that Lang Hua used to quench the Mo Dao, the rest of the crystal nuclei that could be found in the team were collected by Lang Hua and used to make three evolution potions, which were taken to Lin Qian, Haiping and Lan Xi respectively.

There are usually two types of evolutionary elixirs in the last days. A potion made from a large number of ordinary "homologous energy crystal nuclei", such as a potion made entirely from the crystal nucleus of black corpses and black beasts. The second is the addition of "homologous and homologous energy crystal nuclei" to the raw materials of the medicine.

And the so-called homologous and homogeneous, according to the official statement from the "Science and Technology Alliance" at the beginning of the third year of the last century, should actually be understood in this way.

As early as the eve of the cataclysm, the black fog of spores infected the earth's atmosphere, giving rise to countless evolutionary organisms. These organisms are all genetically mutated as a result of the Black Mist Eruption, so they are homologous evolutionary organisms. Therefore, for the time being, all living organisms on Earth should be counted as homologous evolutionary organisms.

The crystallization of the spore community contained in the cerebral marrow of evolutionary organisms is also called the energy crystal nucleus or evolutionary crystal nucleus, and after awakening the evolutionary ability, it is called the ability crystal nucleus or special crystal nucleus.

In homologous evolutionary organisms, they are divided into dominant corpse variants such as black corpses and corpse beasts and recessive parasites such as black beasts and evolutionary organisms due to the existence of dominant corpse variants, recessive parasites, and species types. The four of them are homologous and xenomorphic organisms with each other, and the evolutionary crystal nucleus in their bodies is also the homologous heterogeneous crystal nucleus.

For different individuals in the same species, such as Lang Hua and Lin Wenjin, or Black Corpse No. 1 and Black Corpse No. 2, they are both homologous organisms and homologous organisms, and the energy crystal nuclei in their bodies are homologous and allogeneic crystal nuclei of each other.

Therefore, for human beings, the crystal nucleus of "homologous and allogeneic energy" refers specifically to the crystal nucleus of evolution. By "obtaining" crystal nuclei from congeners, they can be swallowed directly, or they can be taken after preparing a potion. Because of the similarity of evolutionary information, they are relatively more compatible, have a higher probability of ability awakening, and require fewer crystal nuclei for the same amount of potion.

However, although this kind of medicine is powerful, it is very easy to induce cannibalism and violate social ethics, so it has been widely criticized, and it has not been put on the table for many years.

And if the special crystal nucleus, that is, the ability crystal nucleus after the ability is awakened, is put into the elixir stock solution as the main drug, the success rate of the awakening potion will be greatly increased, up to more than 70%.

As the saying goes, if capital has a profit of fifty percent, it will take risks; If there is a 100% profit, it dares to trample on all the laws of the world; If there is a profit of three hundred percent, it dares to commit any crime. And none of the evolutionaries who can struggle to survive in the last days are not outlaws, and the 70% chance of success is almost equivalent to 200% for them, so they can't help but be impressed!

As a result, a new category of potions was created, known as "Ability Plunder Flasks". Because it was first discovered in the Americas theater, it is officially known as "Raven Power medicament", or RP type medicine for short.

Depending on the type of catalyst incorporated, these potions are divided into Enhanced, Plunder I, and Plunder II. Potions, with the effect of the enhanced potions summarized as "Evolution Ability Enhancement for those with the same ability", while the latter two give ordinary Evolvers a chance to awaken a certain evolutionary ability.

Previously, in the Lin Club, Lin Qian assisted in devouring the hegemony crystal nucleus of Chaosandao through the elixir, thus improving her "hegemony" ability to the first stage of consummation, which was the result of the enhanced RP elixir.

……

The spore black fog erupted in a blowout on Advent Day, which was the first and most brutal natural selection after the beginning of the apocalypse. Among them, there are not many people who are lucky enough to escape the fate of the corpse, and they happen not to be bitten to death by the black corpse.

In the first night, more than 90% of the world's population has been lost. After the corpse tide riots, the beast tide attacks, and the human beings killed each other, the number of people who could survive to the end of the world for three years in the previous life was not even 100 million.

How many of them are capable? Only 10,000 people!

In 2275, the total number of registered people in the world is 8.7 billion, and 10,000 people account for only 0.00115%. In this way, the number of people who can live to the end of the world for three years and become capable is far less than one in 100,000, and the proportion is simply outrageously low.

The least powerful have the highest status and the best resources in the world, and are also the mainstay of the frontier of human resistance. It can be said that human beings can gain a firm foothold three years before the cataclysm, and can compete with the two camps of black corpses and black beasts, and the merits of those who are capable cannot be ignored.

However, the vast majority of evolutionaries after the cataclysm will not be able to awaken their abilities and become capable people throughout their lives.

In the crisis-ridden apocalypse, ordinary evolutionaries who are lucky enough to survive have only three ways to complete the ability awakening. The first is to passively wait for the black fog to erupt twice a year; the second is to take the ability awakening potion or the ability plundering potion; The third is to devour all kinds of special crystal nuclei of unknown origin, including black corpses, corpse beasts, black beasts, and even dead human abilities.

The third method is the most dangerous, and the first is the least risky, but it is also the slowest and least probable. But either way, ability awakening is not 100% of what can be done, success depends on talent, luck, and timing.

In the early post-apocalyptic period, people absorbed energy by directly swallowing crystal nuclei, increasing the energy level in their bodies, and then advancing to higher levels. At this time, the absorption and conversion rate of the human body for the energy of the allogeneic crystal nucleus is at least 30%.

After the advent of the "vinegar supplementary food method", the energy conversion rate of ordinary crystal nucleus agents is about 50%~60%. In comparison, the success probability of the Ability Awakening Elixir is even lower, and it has never exceeded the 50% threshold.

Evolution Flasks are one of the most expensive consumables in the post-apocalyptic world. Taking the medicine costs a lot of money and sometimes even riskes your life. And if it fails, it is possible that at least three years of hard work by an ordinary evolutionary will be in vain.

Humans have used their ingenuity to increase the energy conversion rate of crystal nuclei from 30% to 50%. Although "roulette" has thus become a "coin toss", for ordinary evolutionaries who have no power and no money, the awakening of ability is still a very difficult task.

Until the "Ability Plunder Potion" came out, the ability awakening chance was increased from 50% to 75% or even to 90%.

But the change in between, is not just a number on paper. Because probability is just some kind of big data, and for many evolutionary beings, it may be that because of this, they have successfully awakened and become human beings after taking the potion for the first time.

For them, there are always only two outcomes of ability awakening, 0% and 100%. Now that there is a 100% chance of a big increase, how can you not make them crazy!

Returning to the effectiveness of the last two abilities of the Plunder Elixir, compared to the enhanced type, which can promote the same level of ability, the Plunder Type I and Plunder II Elixir are used to cause the "Normal Evolutionary 90% chance to awaken the Crystal Nucleus Incidental Ability" and "Normal Evolutionary 75% chance to awaken the random ability", respectively.

"Awakening the ability attached to the crystal nucleus" is naturally the ability to pred, but the second sentence of the summary of the alliance is worth scrutinizing.

Because since it is an "awakening random ability", there is naturally the possibility of waste ability. Compared to obtaining an unknown evolutionary ability, or directly failing to awaken the ability, it seems that it is more secure to directly plunder the original ability in the ability crystal nucleus.

In the ability crystal nucleus in Lang Hua's hand, due to Lao Hu's long time of death, the ability crystal nucleus has escaped seriously, and it is no longer suitable as the main drug of the medicine.

Whether it is Sun Gui's "immovable like a mountain" or Wang Ming's "Yansu", they are obviously not suitable for the pursuit of lethality and speed.

Lang Hua, who has relived a lifetime, knows how important the right evolutionary ability is for an ability.

Although there seem to be a lot of people with more than 10,000 abilities, there are very few people who have the most advantageous ability, that is, the "Heavenly Mandate Ability". Many people just change their combat habits along the evolutionary path and force themselves to adapt to the development of their abilities, rather than complementing their evolutionary abilities.

The strength and characteristics of an evolutionary ability will severely restrict the development of an ability person in the middle and later stages. It can become a ladder for ordinary people to climb to the sky in one step, and naturally it may also become a fishbone stuck in the throat and a stumbling block on the road.

In the battle of Taifeng gas station, Haiping and Lan Xi did not take a step back even though they were seriously injured, and they have proved their loyalty through their actions. The two of them have a good sense of battle and temperament, and Lang Hua has great hopes for them, so he naturally doesn't want their talents to be wasted.

He prefers to have more than abundant, using Plundering Type II Elixir to keep the two of them awaken random abilities until they succeed. It's not that Lang Hua doesn't have a potion formula that clears waste of waste, even if it would waste a lot of resources to do so, he has to find the "Mandate of Heaven Ability" for the two of them, so that they can become the strongest swordsmen and swordsmen!

The "Ability Pillage Potion" is undoubtedly an evil method that can increase the chance of ability awakening.

In his previous life, this method had been widely spread in the dark corners of the world, and Lang Hua only knew about it for the first time when he exterminated the Black Blood Altar Branch.

In fact, this method is not complicated, but it is necessary to replace the ordinary black corpse and black beast crystal nuclei other than the ability crystal nuclei in the potion, and replace them with homologous and homologous crystal nuclei with higher compatibility. The higher the level of the ability to plunder the potion, the more Evolver Nuclei are needed, and the higher the quality will be.

In ancient times, it was a success, and this kind of thing has always been difficult and easy to overcome.

Thinking of this, Lang Hua couldn't help but squint his eyes, and his eyes seemed to resurface, the corpses of those human evolutionaries lying on the ground.

"There's movement ahead."

Yang Bensheng's early warning interrupted everyone's thoughts. As soon as he raised his hand, the team immediately stopped, and everyone became nervous.

At this time, a few rays of morning light stubbornly pierced through the cascading branches and leaves, making the mist in the forest glow slightly orange-red.

When people calmed down, they heard a few whimpering sounds of unknown animals nearby.

"At the front." Lin Wenjin whispered.

"Xiaohua, you stay, Lao Lin will come with me to have a look." As soon as Yang Bensheng beckoned, people consciously gathered together. The capable ones were scattered, and the rest of the people squatted on the ground without saying a word, looking around vigilantly.

But just as Yang Bensheng and the others were about to go to see what was going on, the grass in front of them suddenly shook violently, and the next moment a giant wolf jumped out. The guy was as tall as a calf, and was snow-white, with some long, yellowish-brown hair on his ears, sides, and legs.

"What the hell!"

Lin Wenjin was startled, and raised his hand to attack with a fireball.

But the opponent seemed to be beyond imagination, and just jumped lightly to the side, and dodged the fireball attack. After that, the eyes that looked at the crowd became more and more hateful, and the brown and yellow pupils in the black slanted eyes shrank into a straight line, which made Lin Wenjin feel chills all over his body.

Only then did people see that there was a lot of dark red blood on this giant wolf, and his left front leg was dripping with blood, half-lifted off the ground, as if he had been bitten by something.

Wolves are social animals, and a pack of as few as 5 wolves may have as many as 30 wolves. When Lin Wenjin thought of this, he couldn't help but be vigilant.

"It's a snow wolf, how can there be a snow wolf in Fengwei Mountain?"

Yang Bensheng cautiously retreated, trying to distance himself from the giant wolf: "Now you have to ask those executors of the 'Forest Restoration Movement'!" ”

"Ridiculous! These fools who are released indiscriminately, I can't wait to bring them over and feed the wolves now! ”

"Don't think about it. At that time, it was the beginning of the century, and after 70 years, people had already died, and it was almost the same to call your grandfather to go. Yang Bensheng glanced at the other party's lower abdomen, and then reminded, "It's a mutant she-wolf, be careful that the head wolf is nearby!" ”

Wolves have always been formed in the form of a nuclear family, with one of the strongest couples as the leader of the pack. They belong to the typical upper predators of the food chain. In their habitat, only humans and advanced species such as ligers pose a substantial threat to them.

However, compared with the southern provinces and cities, the ecological restoration of the Fengwei Mountains after the "Forest Restoration Movement" is not complete. Looking at the size of the she-wolf, it shouldn't be an ordinary member of the wolf pack. Perhaps when the black fog broke out, this wolf also gained a lot of benefits.

"Whew-"

The she-wolf let out a low wolf howl, and four wild wolves jumped out of the bushes on the left and right sides of the group. These four wolves are relatively small, only about the size of large dogs, but they look long and thin, and they are expected to be speed-type black beasts.

They surrounded the crowd to the left and right, the wolves stretched out, their back fur erected, their front teeth bared with their lips furrowed, their tails raised and their backs arched, and they let out a threatening roar from time to time.

"Ahh

Duan Qing let out an exclamation in hindsight, then covered his mouth tightly, grabbed Xiao Heizi's sleeve and didn't dare to move again, for fear of becoming the first target of the wild wolf.

Xiao Heizi couldn't hold his breath either, and a wind blade on his right hand slowly took shape, urging Lang Hua in a hurry: "Leader! ”

Can't wait any longer, the wild wolf is fierce and flexible, and he is the king of the grassland who is good at hunting. Maybe the capable are not afraid of these beasts, but ordinary evolutionaries may be injured by this!

Lang Hua glanced at Yang Bensheng and the two at the front, and then shouted in a deep voice: "The capable one will follow me." Aunt Ping, the rest of you will please! ”

In the west, it is generally believed that wolves with lighter coats are more aggressive. In fact, this snow wolf is indeed extremely difficult to deal with. When the giant wolf jumped, the huge wolf claws fluttered, and no one dared to resist. The wolf's fangs were so thick and terrifying that even the wolf's tail was thick and powerful, like a hammer.

Just a face, the defenseless Lin Wenjin was "swept away". He was the first to strike before, and he was obviously already hated.

"Lao Lin, how are you?"

"I'm fine. Be careful, this beast has a lot of strength. ”

"Xiaohua, I'll attract its attention, you're ready to make a move at any time!" Yang Bensheng no longer hesitated, raised his hand and threw out a few water balloons to disturb him.

The water balloon is not slow, and most of them are not dodged by the she-wolf, and hit the wolf directly, causing the latter to keep back. But the water polo didn't actually cause any injuries, so the she-wolf shook her head, and the wolf had a teasing anger on her face, which looked quite human.

"Uh-uh!"

The she-wolf pounced again in a blink of an eye, but unexpectedly, a dead branch pierced the ground half a meter in front of her like a sharp arrow. The dead branch was three inches into the soil, and the tail trembled slightly, which was enough to see the power of this blow.

The she-wolf couldn't help but be startled, and the pounce came to an abrupt halt.

But more attacks are coming.

"Divine Thoughts-Manipulation!"

Water sources are not widely distributed in the jungle, but litter is everywhere. Those withered branches and leaves that were originally lying honestly at the feet of everyone turned into countless sharp arrows and sharp blades under Yang Bensheng's manipulation at this moment!

"Whoosh-"

"Brush—"

Fallen leaves and dead branches are originally close to decay, but with the blessing of "divine thought" energy, even dead leaves have turned into pieces of "blades" with sharp edges.

But in the next moment, these "sharp arrows" and "sharp blades" just smashed into the wolf one after another, except for making the she-wolf even more angry, but did not cause any substantial damage.

"What?"

Only then did people see clearly that the wolf fur had a faint silver-gray sheen, perhaps with a good defensive attribute.

Yang Bensheng's telekinesis manipulation is limited by the environment and cannot exert the maximum lethality.

But he was not discouraged, but his right fist was clenched, and there seemed to be a flash of sharpness in his eyes.

"Mindful!"

The next moment, people only felt that the air flow in this space seemed to be still for a moment, and then they saw a "fist" the size of a bull's head appear in the air. The fist was translucent, and as soon as it appeared, it smashed down with lightning speed, hitting the side of the she-wolf!

"Bang!"

As soon as the column penetrates the space and hits the target, it immediately dissipates into invisibility. Only then did people feel that the breeze around them had risen again, and the air flow had returned to smoothness.

"Whew-"

The she-wolf was knocked to the ground, rolled several times in succession, and got up with a cry of pain, but there was a blue-purple electric flash when she opened her mouth.

said that it was too late, and then it was fast, and a thunderbolt rushed towards Yang Bensheng's front door! Yang Bensheng instinctively retreated, but this thunder was too fast and unexpected, how could he dodge?

"Brother Sheng!" "Uncle Yang!"

Lin Wenjin was in a hurry, but saw a vague figure rushing past him. It's Lang Hua!

At this moment, Lang Hua's "crystal nucleus field" was powerful, and the space-time stagnation effect was activated instantly, winning a precious moment for him and Yang Bensheng.

"Rush! Replica - Popular! Rev - Phantom! ”

All the sounds around him suddenly disappeared, and the spherical space with a radius of five meters seemed to become a slow-motion camera. Yang Bensheng was staggering back, Lin Wenjin opened his mouth wide in surprise, the she-wolf bared her wolf teeth and prepared for the next attack, and even Lang Hua's thinking seemed to be frozen, his brain slowed down, and he couldn't think quickly.

In a matter of seconds, Lang Hua couldn't afford to think too much. He is just constantly casting evolutionary skills related to speed, hoping that this explosive force will allow him to break through the shackles of spatial power and increase his speed to another level.

Closer, a little closer. One thing to go, one thing to go!

Lang Hua opened his mouth wide, let out a silent roar, and finally jumped forward, unsheathed the knife, and "brushed" in front of Yang Bensheng.

"Bang!" There was an explosion on the ground, and a puff of green smoke came out of the ground, and Lang Hua and Yang Bensheng flew out of the smoke and dust together.
