After walking all the way for more than half an hour in the morning, the ground began to gradually moisten, and lakes and streams in this area abounded, more of which were one after another, and after walking for more than ten minutes, the ground had begun to become extremely ***** many places had overflowed with water.

The abundant water also makes the plants here grow exceptionally vigorously.

Not to mention the towering woods that are simply inserted into the air, even the aquatic plants on the ground have grown two or three meters high, and it is difficult to distinguish between east and west, north and south.

These aquatic weeds were full of insects and snakes, and poison was rampant, so that Luo Yuan barely took a few steps before he was about to encounter an attack, and along the way, Luo Yuan's knife did not stop.

If these are just small troubles on the road, then the groups of mutant insects that occupy a radius of several kilometers, with long tail needles like spear tips, and groups of mutant insects flying around in droves, simply annoyed Luo Yuan.

Each of these mutant insects is only the size of a millstone, and most of them are only dark blue in strength, but they act collectively and have the same sociality as a bee, if you kill one, then good, next, you will face an overwhelming attack from a whole swarm, absolutely unstoppable.

Although it is not dangerous for Luo Yuan, it is enough to make people sick.

Of course, if he keeps releasing momentum, these troubles are naturally not a problem, but momentum does not come out of thin air, what it dissipates is the spiritual qi of people, perception and will, even if he has a strong will and perception, he can't withstand the consumption along the way.

He barely walked for a while, and finally had to learn from the mutants, jumping up and down the trees.

He had also walked on the trees a few times before, but after all, he was not as skilled as the mutants who survived in the jungle, at first he was still a little twisted, and his movements seemed a little jerky, but he was amazingly agile, and he had a good grasp of his body, no matter how difficult the movements were, he would learn them as soon as he learned them, and he would get used to them after a while, and after a few minutes, his movements were already more flexible and smooth than those of mutants.

Luo Yuan found that there are not many nests here, and almost every tree is full of nests.

He and the mutant set off before dawn, when the sky was just dawning, and it was just when the mutant birds were about to come out to feed, and the sky was not completely bright, and the whole jungle had begun to gradually hustle and bustle.

Along the way, all kinds of shrill or noisy, or tactful bird calls, one after another.

At this time, a shadow above his head suddenly fell, Luo Yuan's face turned dark, and he hurriedly stepped a little, and his body jumped to another big tree quickly like a phantom, even if he didn't look back, he knew what the falling thing was.

As long as you look ahead, a large amount of guano along the way is like a biochemical bomb dropped from above, if you don't pay attention, I'm afraid you will be hit.

These mutant birds are not those petite and delicate birds before the end of the world, even the smallest mutant birds are the size of adults, if the wings are spread, they are six or seven meters wide, as for the big ones, the naked body is five or six meters high, and the weight is nearly three or four tons, which abounds here.

If the droppings pulled down by a mutant bird of this size were hit, even if they didn't drown people, they would be enough to pour a head and face and take a bath by the way.

However, both the mutant and Luo Yuan were extremely alert and did not let the tragedy happen.

…………

As we move forward, there is more and more water on the ground, from the original wetland, gradually becoming a swamp, and finally gradually has a trend of developing like a lake.

You must know that at the speed of the two of them, they have been walking for nearly half an hour since there was stagnant water, and the distance is more than 100 kilometers, and this is only the periphery.

In the past two days, Luo Yuan hurried and hurried, he had already crossed Sichuan and Shu all the way, and even Guizhou had run most of it, and was about to enter Guangxi, because there was a compass to determine the direction and the terrain judgment of the satellite map, he had not been lost so far, and from the satellite map in his memory, there was no trace of this lake ahead.

Luo Yuan estimated that the lake may have just formed, or that the lake is too shallow enough to submerge the trees, and that it is not visible on satellite maps under the obscuration of the line of sight.

Since the end of the world, first the temperature has risen, then the sea level has risen, the climate has changed drastically, plus various earthquakes, volcanoes, and the terrain has changed too much, some of the original existing rivers and lakes have disappeared, and new rivers and lakes have also appeared.

The vicissitudes of life, nothing more!

Sure enough, next, the water surface has begun to get deeper and deeper, and the weeds and shrubs on the ground have gradually faded, replaced by aquatic plants that drift with the waves in the water, with leaves like ribbons, and groups of mutant fish in groups of aquatic weeds.

Towards noon, the dazzling light casts a patch of light and darkness on the water surface through the layers of leaves, changing colors with the ripples of the water.

At this moment, a water mark was like an arrow, speeding towards this side, and the water surface on both sides was separated by an invisible force, raising a wave half a meter high.

The mutant was panting, desperately chasing Luo Yuan's back in front of her, she didn't have the physical strength of Luo Yuan's pervert, she ran with Luo Yuan all day yesterday, this kind of high-intensity exercise had exhausted all her physical strength.

Coupled with the unfamiliar environment last night, she didn't sleep well all night, so she only ran for a few hours today, and she was almost unable to hold on.

Her tired body and sluggish spirit made her vigilant not as good as before, and she didn't notice the changes in the water surface for a while.

Just as she was jumping from one branch to another, her body was still in the air, and she heard a loud boom!

The water splashed more than ten meters, and in this snow-white water mist, the killing machine suddenly appeared!

A ferocious mutant fish more than ten meters long and full of sharp teeth suddenly jumped into the air and bit towards the mutant!

It happened too suddenly, and when the killing machine came, the intense fear made her pupils shrink suddenly, and her body stiffened for a while, and there was no other reaction.

Seeing that the mutant was about to be swallowed by the mutant fish, at the last moment, a short spear or simply a randomly broken branch roared, bombarding the head of the mutant fish heavily, directly blowing the fish head into a ball of minced meat.

The remaining kinetic energy moved the mutant beast's headless body sideways for more than ten meters, and plopped it back into the water.

The next moment, the lake suddenly swelled with dark tides, whirlpools, and soon blood gushed up, splashing in all directions.

In just a few seconds, this mutant fish, which was extremely fierce before, has become a white bone.

"Are you alright?" Luo Yuan quickly fell next to the mutant, and asked regardless of whether she understood it or not.

She didn't react, her body hugged a branch tightly, trembling like a frightened mouse, and the scene of her near death just now was obviously too frightened for her.

Luo Yuan touched her head comfortingly, just touched it, and immediately frightened her, and hurriedly climbed on top of another branch with her hands and feet, hiding behind the leaves, and looked at Luo Yuan vigilantly.

Luo Yuan retracted his hand awkwardly, seeing that she was frightened and frightened, and her breath was sighing, she seemed to be extremely tired, obviously she couldn't hurry anymore, compared with yesterday's spare strength, her physical strength decreased very significantly.

I have to find a way to solve it, a lonely journey is quite difficult, and the mentality is fragile, which is enough to make people crazy, and his strong will will naturally not be so unbearable, but with the existence of this mutant who can be called half a person, at least it will not be so boring, Luo Yuan said secretly in his heart.

"You wait here, I'll come when I go." Luo Yuan said, and then walked into the distance.

But when he walked a few steps, the mutant followed again, and Luo Yuan hurriedly made a gesture to make her stop and rest.

The IQ of mutants is much higher than that of mutant beasts, and after a few times, she finally understood that she was no longer following Luo Yuan.

But she seemed to have a little loss on her face, her head bowed, and she squatted listlessly on the branch, like an abandoned kitten.

As the minutes passed, her mood became more and more depressed, she ran to the branch of the tree to look in the direction Luo Yuan left, as if she wanted to find a certain figure, but here the leaves were all over the place, layer upon layer, like a dense green network, and she didn't see anything.

She looked in the direction she had come from!

The familiar environment is no longer there, the nearest mountain here is also extremely strange in her eyes, she doesn't know how far she has run this way, she only knows that from yesterday to now, she has been running again, running again...... When you have a full stomach, you run, and when you wake up, you run.

Leaving her safe nest, leaving her familiar environment, to this water that made her feel uneasy, she crouched on the branches, looked at the surface of the water with a frightened face, where there were countless terrible monsters, swimming rapidly, as if they would jump up and swallow her in one gulp, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and quickly climbed to the highest branch, hiding among the leaves.

Loneliness, fear, and loss rose in her heart.

She suddenly wanted to go home, this was not the place she wanted to be, although the road was long, long, but as long as she followed the direction she came, she would always find a familiar bad place, which was her territory, and her reassuring little nest, with a corner buried with many beautiful shiny treasures that she usually collected, just like the one hanging around her neck!

At this time, there was a slight sound not far away, her ears were quickly erected, her body bowed slightly, her feet moved silently, hiding in the denser bushes next to her, she could feel that the creature in the distance was moving very fast.

From far to near, it only took her three blinks.

Oh no, he's coming this way!

A hint of uneasiness flashed in the mutant's eyes, and her body quickly crawled towards the more slender treetops of the branches, which was a valuable experience for her to survive in the jungle, where the slender branches could withstand her light body, and discouraged larger creatures, even if they encountered hunger and reluctance, they could also jump farther with the help of the elastic force of the branches.

Unfortunately, before she could climb to the top of the treetops, a figure appeared in front of her in an instant.

The wind was blowing, she froze in fright, holding the branch and not moving, and the next moment, she blinked!

It wasn't the enemy, it was the eccentric fellow who had long since left.

Fear and uneasiness melted away on his face, and a heartfelt pleasure rose from his heart, and then spread throughout his body, and his whole body seemed to become crispy and numb, as if he was about to float.

She didn't know it was a surprise, a high-intensity joy, but it didn't affect it, she liked the feeling.

She noticed at a glance that he was carrying flesh and blood in his hands, and it turned out that this strange fellow had not left, but had gone hunting, and she looked through the leaves to see the sun that was about to reach overhead, and sure enough, it was the time for this strange fellow to eat.

"Next!" Luo Yuan looked at the somewhat stunned mutant, throwing over an energy crystal nucleus, not knowing that she still had such complex mental activities at this time, and he didn't realize at all that mutants also had brains similar to those of humans.

The mutant subconsciously reached out to take it, she looked at it, and sniffed it, the fishy smell emitted by this small stone, instinctively made her swallow it*, so she obeyed her instinct and swallowed it!

As if she had been electrocuted, her pupils dilated violently, and then contracted rapidly, and at the same time, her whole body quickly turned red, and her whole body exuded high temperature.

This is a sixth-level energy crystal nucleus, from a mutant bird, which was killed in the lair by Luo Yuan's sneak attack, although for him, the level is not high, but in a hurry, he can only find this.

But looking at her performance, it should be useful.

More than useful, real change has just begun.

Mutants are not like humans, they are genetically stable.

Since the genes of this creature were invaded by the beast genes, it was like a hole in the beast genes and became extremely unstable, which made her not like a human at the same time, but also allowed her to evolve as easily as a mutant beast.

As her whole body turned red, the scales deepened at a visible rate, and it wasn't long before the top of the scales fell off with new scales.

The scales that just came out were red and tender in color, finer and denser than the original scales, without the slightest gap, and she couldn't see her scales from a distance, and it felt like normal human skin.

But soon the color of the scales quickly deepened, hardened, and soon became pale blue!

If the change in the scales only made her feel a little pain, then the next change made Luo Yuan look a little painful, only to hear the rattling of her bones, and she roared again and again in pain, revealing two sharp little tiger teeth, and at the same time her nails frantically tore at the bark of the tree below her.

Perhaps it was the energy crystal nucleus that made this evolution extremely drastic, without any buffer, and at the same time the lack of food supplements, which caused the evolution to be extremely hasty, so that in this evolution, not only did not develop in size like a mutant creature, but instead contracted itself and evolved towards miniaturization.

Her original height of nearly one meter seven kept shrinking, and soon became less than one meter six, and half an hour later, when it was finally finalized, her height was only one meter five, and she looked petite and exquisite, just like when Luo Yuan first met Master Wang.
