Chapter 11: The Aftermath of the Catastrophe
Adjust your posture so that your claws have room to move, and seven or eight bone fingers spare no effort to dig away the clods of soil in front of you. It was probably snowing in the sky, and the melted water flowed down the surface to the ground, and the further back it was, the sand and gravel mixed with the stagnant water, each time it made people feel a deep chill, and after digging for two kilometers, the claws were completely frozen.
"Ha" exhaled the hot air in the mouth to warm the hand a little, and then inserted it into the armpit, and the hot body temperature made the frozen hand not so uncomfortable. After a short break, the Bone Claw returned to work, each as if he were in the Arctic ice, chiseling through the ice with his hands naked and naked.
"Meat, meat, meat" After traveling three kilometers, Mu Hua began to mumble to himself, his misty eyes, his hot body temperature, and this delirious state. Exposed to the cold and damp underground for a long time, and lacking the protection of the skin, Mu Hua, the commander of the thousand, was infected by the virus and launched a high fever.
Viruses have always been a special existence, not having a cell structure but with tenacious vitality, a wrong process in the past evolution led to the birth of this tormenting race, and the closure of the evolutionary path could not stop their steps. From smallpox to influenza to the recent Ebola, they are like the embodiment of death on earth, dominating the lives of all beings. In today's retrospective environment, they are the only ones that have evolved a variety of new species.
Digging little by little, his right hand was already frostbitten, and the only three fingers left in his left hand after marching the last kilometer with a feverish Mu Hua finally couldn't support it and broke.
"Huh? It smells so good! "The dirt in this area is a little reddish, and in addition to the smell of earth, there is also a smell of flesh and blood. Mu Hua, who was seriously overdrawn in physical strength, didn't know where to strength, squatted up and relied on his only remaining right hand to throw away the soil layer above, the more he went up, the more wet the soil became, and the minced meat mixed with it from time to time made him excited, and his weak body was extremely eager for energy intake at this time.
As we approached the surface, a smell of meat came to my face, like the smell of a previous dream. Vigilously leaned out to confirm that there was no movement around him, and then Mu Hua crawled out of the cave. The distance of ten kilometers before and after is out of the former territory, and according to the previous situation, there should be no Commander in the vicinity.
Greedily breathing in the meaty air, I can't help but revel in it. The accumulation of corpses beside him made Mu Hua's eyes glow green, and he tore off a large piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and the flesh melted in his mouth and slid down his esophagus into his stomach without much chewing. The taste was a little strange, but the taste provoked his taste buds and made his hands move faster and faster.
Pieces of meat churn in your mouth, and the juices you squeeze out slide down the corners of your mouth. One piece after another, the dance of the tip of the tongue and the flesh made Mu Hua's heart, which had been frozen for a few days, restless again, and the discomfort of high fever also subsided at this time, leaving only him with the flesh like the mountain in front of him.
"Hiccup~" Comfortably burped, Mu Hua only had a pool of frost-frozen, and the hunger and cold of the past few days made him swallow the skeleton into his stomach, I don't know what kind of creature this is, the bones don't take much effort, like the brittle bones that humans have eaten in memory.
"How can there be so much food here?" After being full of wine and food, Mu Hua finally realized this problem, one or two places were okay, the food placed randomly on the whole street seemed to be deliberately placed to tempt creatures, which inevitably reminded Mu Hua of the "Peach Blossom Spring" carefully designed by the tree spirit before.
Just when Mu Hua was puzzled, an abnormal sound came into his ears.
"Coming" The predator appeared in front of Mu Hua with heavy steps, and at this time he had already hid in the hole, and his head wrapped in layers of dirt poked out cautiously. It was a few dinosaurs five or six meters long, but a few mid-rank centurions, which also made Mu Hua's vigilant heart relax, and he began to think about how to hunt them.
It was a large dinosaur called Dilophosaurus with a large skull and a bony crown on both sides, and it was scavenging. Mu Hua inadvertently broke into their granary.
On the ground, the Dilophosaurus, returning from a hunt, watched the food in front of his house disappear into thin air, and roared at his companions. The other Dilophosaurus looked at the lost companion like fools, and turned their heads to savor the food on the ground, leaving it alone to roar impotently.
"There are six in total, and the strength is not high." After eating up the master's food, he now thinks about the master's Mu Hua, calmly analyzing, the gifts he gave him in the past have given him more human "hobbies", and he will act after analyzing his preferences clearly.
The mutilated bone claws burst out of the ground, piercing the throat of the Dilophosaurus with a fierce murderous aura, and the spine at the back of the neck shattered with a clenched finger. The roar stopped abruptly, and the sound of the corpse falling to the ground alarmed nearby companions. And Mu Hua, who was the initiator, sneaked back underground, waiting for the next attack.
The companion who suddenly fell to the ground still let the two Dilophosaurus come forward to check the situation, and the body that still had residual warmth had lost its breath and gradually became stiff. After confirming the death, I thought that the two Dilophosaurus would grieve for a while because of the death of their companions, but they never thought that the two would fight for the corpses, and the harsh living environment made the Dilophosaurus develop the habit of eating its companions.
When the two dragons were scrambling, the bone claws on the ground reappeared, and a two-spine dragon facing Mu Hua was cut open by a sharp claw, and its intestines fell out of the body along the wound, startling the other one next to him to cry out in a lost voice, and hurriedly turned around to distance himself.
"It's a pity" that the disability of his left hand made it impossible for Mu Hua to kill the two larger dinosaurs in a short period of time.
Carnivorous dinosaurs were not herbivorous and their brutal nature did not allow any aliens to appear alive in their territory. The increasingly blood-red bone crown represents their readiness for battle, staring at the "red monkey" in front of them, which is less than three meters tall.
Before the dragons could react, a Dilophosaurus was knocked to the ground, and in a pool of blood, the red monkey spread its hideous claws, and its ghostly smile made them tremble. The high fever made Mu Hua's situation not optimistic, and if he dragged it down, he might not be killed by these centurions. The energy accumulated in his body to repair the bone armor was injected into the muscles along the blood vessels, allowing Mu Hua to temporarily restore the explosive power of the commander.
Only then did it realize that it was too late for the Dilophosaurus to realize that something was wrong, and the Commander wanted to kill you, but it was only one blow. The afterimage with the cold wind, blowing through the two-spine dragon fell one after another, as the bone claws passed through the chest, the last one also died tragically in Mu Hua's hands, and the unwilling vertical pupils stared at him until death.
At this time, it gradually began to rain lightly, and the continuous dark clouds lowered the height of the sky. The sound of chewing raw flesh and blood, accompanied by the sound of the dripping rain, played a piece of music for the aftermath of the catastrophe.
The six centurions and the random food on the street provided Mu Hua with a large amount of energy, and the bones began to proliferate, creating a layer of bone armor on the epidermis through the flesh. Just as he watched the miserable white gradually covering the flesh and blood, Mu Hua suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and his consciousness fell asleep under the ravages of high fever.
