Chapter 187: Sunset
The whole battle was only thirty seconds in total from the time he came into contact with the other party to fall, but Luo Yuan was sweating profusely, and his whole body was steaming, as if he had just been fished out of the sauna.
Luo Yuan seemed to easily knock it down, but this was just attacking its weaknesses with his own strengths, in fact, this giant was quite terrifying.
Whether it is its mysterious stealth ability or the weird attack in its eyes, it is very different from ordinary mutant creatures, it is like a mutant beast has the ability to evolve, especially the stealth ability, which can perfectly deceive Luo Yuan's perception, this situation is the first time he has encountered it.
You must know that the principle of perception and the discrimination of the naked eye is completely different, pure optical stealth, can deceive the eyes, but can not hide perception, because perception is more similar to waves, but this giant, even if it is close to him before, can not be found at all, if it is not under the pressure of momentum, the other party has a slight flaw, I am afraid that this battle will be over before it is fought.
As for the strange attack in his eyes, although he didn't make contact, the feeling of Guangguang approaching death, he still had palpitations when he thought about it now. It's like walking on the edge of life and death, and the danger can be imagined.
When the battle was over, everyone quickly ran over.
"You're not hurt, are you?" Huang Jiahui asked with a worried face, and saw Luo Yuan shake his head.
She breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm scared to death, how can there be such a creature!" ”
Curious and a little frightened, she looked at the giant's massive corpse, "Is this a mutant?" Good...... What a big guy! ”
The corpse was lying on the ground, seven meters long, its limbs were thick and powerful, with a strong sense of strength, even if it was dead, it still exuded a terrible aura, it was covered with green hair, the hair on its head was a little sparse, and there was a short and thick dark green horn on it, and the most striking thing was a string of polished stone chains hanging from his chest.
This is obviously a trace of wisdom, and I'm afraid that except for mutants, no other mutant beast can do such a thing.
"No, how do I feel, it doesn't seem to be like it!" Huo Dong hesitated for a moment and said: "No matter how mutant a mutant is, there are some people's characteristics, just like Chen Xianxian, he can always see the appearance of a person, this is too different from a person, I'm afraid it's a mutant beast." ”
"It seems to be true!" Cao Lin didn't dare to get closer, but pointed to the other party's hands and feet from a distance and said, "You see it only has four fingers, but each one has five knots, and the toes are the same." ”
More evidence was soon found, such as six breasts, a short tail that had not yet degenerated, and a nose that was not noticeable except for two holes.
Suddenly, the atmosphere cooled down, no one spoke anymore, and there was shock and fear on everyone's faces.
"You're going to see Zhao Yali, right?" At this time, Wang Xiaguang broke the silence and said to Luo Yuan.
Luo Yuan sighed, nodded, and quickly ran over.
Zhao Yali squatted next to Lao Huang's corpse, sobbing softly, touching its increasingly cold corpse, and her tears couldn't stop flowing out.
Lao Huang's body has not recovered from his injuries, and he is barely supported along the way. When encountering a high-level creature, if it was an ordinary mutant beast, I am afraid that it would have already fled, and it would not rush over recklessly at all, but its owner Zhao Yali was here, it had to rush, and after being hit by the terrible light in the eyes of this giant, it died without resistance, and died silently.
"You...... You okay? Luo Yuan walked up to her and squatted down, hesitated, and asked softly. He knew that since the end of the world, Lao Huang, as a mutant beast, has always been her greatest support, relying on the loyal support of this mutant beast, she can come to the present in the treacherous apocalypse, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the feelings are even the closest relatives.
"Woo woo ......" Zhao Yali finally collapsed, hugged Luo Yuan, and cried hoarsely, tearing her liver and lungs, which was moving.
Several women in the neighborhood also had red eyes, and tears could not help but fall.
Luo Yuan touched Lao Huang, who was already a little stiff, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, sighed and said, "Look at it for the last time, we'll bury it later!" ”
Zhou Yicheng seemed to want to say something, but looking at the demeanor of the other people around him, he finally closed his mouth tightly.
The pit is naturally dug by the monitor lizard, directly on the sloped mountain wall next to it, this time the monitor lizard did not escape at all, and took the initiative to throw a big hole in the mountain wall with its claws, Lao Huang's death, it seems to have also affected its feelings, it became extraordinarily silent, and it did not have an impatient expression from beginning to end.
When Lao Huang was thrown into the pit and his body was buried by rubble, the monitor lizard lowered its head and sniffed at the grave bag, and raised its head and let out a huge roar, as if it was seeing off Lao Huang.
Zhao Yali cried inhumanly, and Lao Huang's departure was a huge blow to her.
The tombstone is a whole piece of rough stone with one side cut, more than three meters high, Luo Yuan asked Zhao Yali what he meant, and wrote: "The tomb of the loyal dog Lao Huang!" ”
After a qiē, the monitor lizard did something jaw-dropping, it ran to the giant's corpse, began to bite wildly, and soon the entire belly was torn open by it, and the internal organs flowed to the ground, and then began to gulp and devour the internal organs.
The scene was bloody, and several children turned pale and did not dare to look at it again.
Huang Jiahui pulled him, because the creature was humanoid, and he was afraid of leaving the idea that the monitor lizard could be eaten by humans. However, this time Luo Yuan did not stop it, maybe the object hurt it, and Lao Huang's death greatly stimulated the monitor lizard. Soon all the entrails were hollowed out by the monitor lizard, and then it stopped.
Luo Yuan drove the bloody monitor lizard aside, walked to the giant's head, and cut off the small horn on the top of the head with a knife, this dark green horn attracted special attention, let Luo Yuan notice it at a glance, and then gouged out its eyes, these eyes can send out strange attacks, maybe they have a special use, as for other bones and flesh, Luo Yuan is not very interested.
It's not because of taboo humanoid creatures or anything, after living in the last days for so long, how can there be these boring thoughts, as long as they are not human and not poisonous, they can be eaten. However, at this time, it is still necessary to hurry, and with these flesh and blood, the strong smell of blood exudes all the way, which is likely to cause unnecessary trouble.
The boulder had shattered, and the path was much easier, and in less than half an hour, the monitor lizard had cleared the highway into a path that would allow it to lead to guò.
The group climbed onto the monitor lizard and got back on the road.
The rain had stopped imperceptibly, and the moonlight sprinkled down through the blockade of layers of dark clouds, bringing a glimmer of light to the darkness.
From time to time, there are traces of villages around, broken walls, broken glazed tiles, and decaying bricks and stones, which are hidden in the dense forest, and as Luo Yuan and others quickly pass all the way, they appear and disappear from time to time. As time passed, there were more and more traces of buildings on both sides, and the plants gradually thinned out, and the dilapidated high-rise buildings gradually appeared in front of them!
The water level here is rising rapidly, some of the low-rise buildings have been submerged, and even a large section of the highway has been covered by water.
"You're already in the suburbs, aren't you?" Huo Dong looked at the unrecognizable and waterlogged city, and said uncertainly.
"Seems like yes, I've been here before." Wang Xiaguang looked at it carefully for a while before saying.
Luo Yuan stood up and looked into the distance, except for some high-rise buildings that were barely supported, there was a white scene everywhere, there was a big water everywhere, was the military base still there? His face was a little difficult to look at.
Zhou Yicheng seemed to guess Luo Yuan's thoughts, and asked the soldiers next to him to help him up: "This place is close to the sea, the military base is not here, and in Baoshan District, the highest altitude, it will not be affected for the time being." But we don't have much time, and in their current form, I'm afraid they're ready to evacuate, and we'll have to get there as best we can. ”
Luo Yuan nodded solemnly in his heart.
He took Zhou Yicheng's map and looked at it carefully, this place is still thirty or forty kilometers away from Baoshan District, fortunately this is an urban area, unlike the highway that collapses or the road section is blocked, you have to stop, and after arriving here, because of the heavy water, the beast tide has long disappeared, although the road is difficult to walk, but at least you should be able to reach the destination before dawn.
After getting off the highway, Luo Yuan found that the water level here had reached the thighs of the monitor lizard, about three or four meters deep.
The vines lining the streets are flourishing, and this may be their last revelry, and as the sea level continues to rise, they will sink to the bottom of the sea with the largest city in the East.
There are very few land creatures to be seen here, except for small insects the size of grains of rice floating on the surface of the water like smoke, and most of them have already migrated to higher altitudes, and they quickly dissipate as if frightened by the huge splash of water caused by the movement of monitor lizards, and soon gather from another place.
The monitor lizard walked around the corner of the street, and Master Wang suddenly pulled Luo Yuan: "Look there!" ”
Luo Yuan turned his head to look, it was a hundred-meter-tall tree, with lush branches and leaves, except for the roots of the tree sticking out of the water, there was nothing unusual, but after looking at it for a while, he was surprised to find that it was fleeing for its life.
It was a strange tree, and its entire roots were uprooted, and it staggered forward like a foot.
It's a pity that it moves too slowly, it doesn't take a step, it almost takes a few minutes, and there is no fixation of the root system, and its main trunk keeps shaking, and it may fall down at any time, and I don't know how long it has been walking, but at such a slow speed, it can't escape at all.
Everyone watched quietly, and as the monitor lizard gradually disappeared from sight.
In the distance, a 30-storey dilapidated building finally couldn't withstand the erosion of the sea, and fell down with a bang, smashing on the water surface and splashing dozens of meters high, driven by the impact of the water flow, which seemed to cause a chain reaction, and a series of collapses occurred nearby.
This made Luo Yuan's heart a little vigilant, and let the monitor lizard walk towards the sparsely built area as much as possible.
These buildings have long been corrupted from the roots, and they are only crumbling to the last breath, and even a gust of wind, a slight tremor, and a small wave can destroy it lightly.
There was a large amount of garbage floating on the surface of the water, and an empty plastic mineral water bottle, under the whirlpool of the current, kept spinning, and was instead washed away by a wave. The salty sea breeze fills the breath of the sea, making people subconsciously feel that they are walking on the beach. Looking at the broken qiē in front of him, Luo Yuan had a feeling that civilization had been ruined and vicissitudes.
In fact, it is!
Everyone didn't speak all the way, just quietly watched the last afterglow of China's most prosperous city!
