Chapter 5 Finding the Source Crystal
"Brother, what is this? Is it also a zombie? ”
Lin Ying looked at the burrowing centipede that had been cut in two on the ground and asked curiously.
"No, this thing is not a zombie, but a type of Zerg Bugger, a kind of alien race from other dimensions. Due to the advent of the end times, there are many spatial rifts on the earth, and they run over from the other side. However, they are more powerful than zombies, as far as the ground-burrowing centipede is concerned, although it is only a first-order zerg, but in terms of actual combat, ten zombies may not be able to beat it. ”
"All in all, these aliens can do much more harm than those zombies."
"Huh? In that case, wouldn't humanity be completely wiped out by these alien races? ”
"It's not that exaggerated, after all, the rift has only just formed, and the strength of the alien race coming from there is limited, and it is impossible to reach the level you said. Moreover, during this period, the strength of our human race will continue to grow. Rest assured, humans are not as fragile as you think. ”
"Besides, they can come through spatial rifts, and we can also reach their world through rifts, there will be a lot of good things there!" You must know that in other alien spaces, there are many rare materials and treasures hidden in the human world, and many methods and skills for cultivating abilities and some super-era technologies are obtained from them.
In the previous life, after human beings discovered the way to become evolutionary and became stronger, they organized a counteroffensive plan and pulled the battle line to some alien spaces. Although it quickly failed, it also proved that these alien races were not invincible.
"And even if humanity is really invincible, we can retreat to other dimensional dimensions. Some of the torn spaces are in a semi-desolate state that can sustain human existence, while others are too weak for the aborigines to occupy. You know, this time the great change has created countless spaces and small worlds, are you still afraid that there will be no place to go? ”
After listening to Lin Han's story, Lin Ying nodded as if she didn't understand:
"Oh, I see! I feel like you know a lot brother! ”
Hearing this, Lin Han just smiled and didn't pick up the words.
"But they appeared earlier than I thought, and it looks like we need to hurry up and improve our strength!"
In the previous life, the Zerg was only a member of the army of extradimensional space that invaded the earth, and there were many more powerful races than it that took the opportunity to infiltrate. But most of them have a very strong hostility towards humans, and the relationship between humans and these aliens is like that of zombies, either you die or I die. Moreover, these alien races are very powerful, and some alien races can even easily destroy a human city. In some ways, the threat of alien races is even greater than that of the zombies now.
And now that there are insect soldiers of the Zerg in Jingtong City, it proves that there is a worm mother in Jingtong City. As for the specific strength of the insect mother, Lin Han didn't know. But he can be sure that if the worm mother fully awakens, it will definitely be a stronger existence than the peak of his previous life, otherwise it will be impossible to control the king-level fire-devouring insect king. It can be said that the insect mother is absolutely invincible at this time.
However, fortunately, in Lin Han's memory, now a high-level alien race such as the insect mother will fall into a semi-deep state due to the consumption of a lot of energy through the torn space after arriving on the earth, and can only send insect soldiers to collect food for themselves in order to restore their strength, and it will have to wait at least a few years to leave the brood activities. And due to the influence of the current earth's environment, the insect soldiers sent out are only second-order at most, as long as they don't get close to the brood, it shouldn't be a big problem.
At this time, Lin Han suddenly remembered something, came to the centipede that had just been cut in two by him, and cut the shell of the centipede's head with a knife, and a large pile of bright red flesh and white ** were instantly exposed to the air. Lin Han, on the other hand, didn't care about it and directly began to rummage through it.
And Lin Ying, who was next to her, couldn't help but turn a little pale when she saw this scene, after all, the scene of digging things in a bunch of brains was more visually impactful than the scene of Lin Han beating zombies before. But Lin Han didn't care at all. After a while, a red crystal was pulled out of it.
"Huh? Brother, what's that thing in your hand? ”
"It's nothing, the insect crystal of the Zerg of the Zerg, after each Zerg grows to a certain period of time, a crystal will be produced in the body, you can understand it as a collection of essences, if you take it, you can enhance the physique of the evolutionary, and you can also strengthen its ability. But for me, the first-order worm crystals don't have much effect. But it's still a big deal for you. ”
"Really? Is that if I eat this thing, I can become as powerful as you? ”
"Well, no. Although this first-order insect crystal is of little use to me, the source energy it contains is much more violent than the first-order source crystal, and it is not something that ordinary people can bear. So you have to become an Evolver first, so that you can bear the energy inside, and only by becoming an Evolver can your body have the ability to absorb the energy in it. ”
"Huh? That's right...... So how do I become an evolutionary? ”
"Generally speaking, there are two main ways to become an evolutionary, one is self-awakening and the other is external awakening. Among them, the probability of self-awakening is relatively small, and it is generally awakened when it is a huge blow or when its life is threatened, or it has a certain resistance to the virus in its own body, and it will become an evolutionary when ingesting a small amount of virus. The strength of those who awaken through this method is a little stronger than those who awaken through the use of Source Crystal. ”
And the other way to awaken by external forces can be divided into two kinds at the moment. One is to rely on drug stimulation to achieve the purpose of awakening, this method of awakening is more directive, the probability of success is also very small, and there is even a threat to life, but in the early days of the last days, the strength of people awakened through this method is relatively top-notch. That's how I got awakened. But again, this approach is prohibitively costly and demanding for the user. It may be improved in potions and usage methods in the future, but no one should be awakened this way now. ”
"There is also the one who becomes an Evolver by devouring the Source Crystals produced in the corpses. Its success rate is almost 100%, but at the same time, it is full of uncertainty, what ability to awaken depends on luck, and there are also some factors of personal talent in it. ”
"For now, the best way for you to awaken is by taking Source Crystals. However, the time for the formation of zombies is still too short, so the source crystal has not yet formed in the body, so it will have to wait for a while before you can awaken. ”
"Oh, got it."
Hearing that she couldn't become an evolutionary yet, Lin Ying couldn't help but feel a little lost in her heart. Lin Han saw the disappointed expression on Lin Ying's face, and could only shake his head helplessly. He knew that Lin Ying had been a relatively good kind of person since he was a child, and his heart was relatively strong, but now he could only hide behind others and could not do anything, and he must be uncomfortable in his heart.
Lin Han didn't have anything to say about this, he had never been very good at comforting others, so he had to take Lin Ying on the road.
In order not to be entangled by a large number of zombies, Lin Han still chose to jump on the building to avoid the gathering place of zombies, and then took Lin Ying to run around in the alley, and then returned to his cabin without danger.
"Whew, it's finally home, it's a good feeling to be home!"
As soon as she entered the house, Lin Ying collapsed on the sofa regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, God knows how far they took to take the safest route, and she was not a powerful evolutionary like Lin Han, so she was already tired after such a toss. Lin Han didn't say anything about this, just stood quietly aside and waited for Lin Ying to ease his breath.
After resting unscrupulously on the sofa for a while, Lin Ying slowly sat up straight again, looked at Lin Han and said:
"Brother, what should we do next? We can't stay here forever, can we? ”
After a short break, Lin Ying had to start paying attention to the problem in front of her.
"Well, of course you can't just sit still. Now it's just a brief rest here, and then I'll give you a simple training to help you improve your strength. This is the capital to survive in the last days, because I cannot be by your side all the time. ”
"When you're done with your studies, we'll set off for the capital, which is safe for now......
When Lin Han said the word capital, he couldn't help but show a trace of worry in his eyes, and Lin Yingdi couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart. Although Lin Han had already told her parents that she should be safe now, this was not what she had seen with her own eyes after all, so she would naturally be worried. To be honest, Lin Han actually has no bottom in his heart. In the end, he was just a phone call, whether it could work, whether it could change the tragedy of the tragic death of his parents in the previous life, all this is unknown.
However, it is said that under the condition of sufficient supplies, it is best to stay at home and wait for the rescue of the army. But that's just for the average person. Moreover, Lin Han is also very aware of the military garrison of the entire Jingtong City, and it is absolutely impossible to enter the city to search and rescue civilians! So they can and must take the initiative!
"But for now, it's pretty clear, at least there's a bed to sleep in, something to eat, and it's going to be much more difficult when we leave."
"Hmm."
Lin Han looked at Lin Ying, who couldn't stop nodding in front of him, and couldn't help but have a long-lost smile on his face.
If only life could go on like this!
Lin Han couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if it weren't for this catastrophe, he would probably just live a peaceful life every day like other ordinary people, and spend time with his relatives at home!
Unfortunately, those days are gone. And with the passage of time, the living conditions of human beings will become more and more difficult, and the human nature will be completely exposed. So much so that at the beginning of the last days, many human beings died at the hands of their own kind.
After a short period of thought, Lin Hanyou moved the muscles and bones on his body and said to Lin Ying:
"Okay, it's almost time to rest, Xiaoying, you stay and watch the house, and I'll go outside and clean up those things. Remember to lock the door when I go out, don't open the door if there is any movement, and wait for me to come back, you know? ”
"Uh-huh, got it, brother. You have to be careful, but don't get hurt by those monsters. ”
"Don't worry, your brother and I are in good hands, and now those guys outside can touch the corners of my clothes."
After speaking, Lin Han went to the door in a flash.
Out of the house, Lin Han couldn't help but sigh deeply, he finally brought Lin Ying back without danger, and when he went to the capital to meet his parents, he could be regarded as having a good explanation. This reminded Lin Han of his parents who were now far away in the capital.
"Phew, they should be safe now......"
Thinking of this, Lin Han couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head. After all, I haven't even stepped out of Jingtong City yet, let alone the capital that is nearly a thousand miles away from here? At present, his parents are protected by the state, and they are quite guaranteed. But I have to keep working hard so that I can live and see them.
Although Lin Han's strength is definitely one of the best at present, now that many otherworldly and otherworldly beings have descended, many of them have superior strength, and there are definitely still people who can crush him to death.
So, Lin Han didn't delay any longer, picked up the blood sacrifice in his hand and began to walk towards the outside of the building. The momentum on his body became very cold at this moment, and the expression on his face became serious in an instant, like a Shura who came out of the corpse.
There is no doubt that another killing feast will soon take place here.
