Chapter 198: Accidental Discovery
Before coming, there were more than 20 soldiers here, but now, including Company Commander Xia, there are only four left. All of them looked gloomy, tired, and a trace of grief flashed in their eyes from time to time, but death is the norm in the last days, especially for those soldiers who have a day and no tomorrow, facing the death of their comrades is already a part of life, they have long been accustomed to this kind of life, and after a short period of sadness, everyone began to get busy.
The remaining guns and ammunition were gathered up by the soldiers and packed into wooden boxes so that they could be loaded onto trucks.
After a soldier picked up a weapon without an owner and a shoe that had fallen on the ground, his eyes suddenly moistened, he secretly wiped a handful, and turned around and squatted down in disguise.
Infected by the soldiers, Mu Wenwen and Wang Shishi also helped as much as they could, no one spoke at the scene, and the atmosphere was heavy and depressing.
In this atmosphere, Luo Yuan lay down for a while, then couldn't lie down, and slowly stood up.
The sharp-eyed Master Wang hurriedly threw down a string of bullets and ran over, and the soldiers of Company Commander Xia also stopped their movements, their faces were a little stunned.
"Brother Luo, how are you?" Master Wang said in surprise.
"Don't worry, I'm almost fine, I'm in a strong physique, and this injury will heal soon." Luo Yuan smiled and said to Master Wang.
This explanation is seamless and reasonable, some evolutionaries do have amazing recovery abilities, even if they open a hole in their bodies, they can recover quickly, which is probably clear to Commander Xia and several soldiers.
"It's great that you're okay, if the base hadn't sent you over this time, I'm afraid that the whole army would have been wiped out this time, if you thank you, I won't say it, we all owe you a life." Lian Commander Xia said gratefully, his voice was a little hoarse, as if he was much haggard.
"It's too strict, I'm also saving myself, if I don't kill that giant snake, we all have to die." Luo Yuan shook his head and said, he didn't want to bear this kind of plain gratitude, and felt a little ashamed.
"Our soldiers have clear grievances, no matter what, you saved our lives." Company Commander Xia still said solemnly: "If you return to the reconstruction area, you can come to us if you have difficulties, we are building the 8th Company of the 3rd Regiment of the 11th Brigade of the 18th Army, if we are still alive by then!" ”
Facing the grateful eyes of these people, Luo Yuan had no choice but to nod.
It seemed that Luo Yuan didn't care much, Xia Lian Chang pulled Luo Yuan over, although his face was tired, he still cheered up and said patiently: "You haven't lived in the reconstruction area, and you don't know the situation in the reconstruction area, where a limited planned economy is now implemented, as well as a dual-track financial mechanism of small bills and currency. In particular, the key materials are strictly controlled, which can only be purchased by ticket, including meat and grain, and now the supply of materials is tight, and many people do not even have enough to eat.
And our soldiers are born and die every day, day and night, but there are also some small privileges, you look at the corpses of these sea beasts, if in the reconstruction area, so many fifth-level mutant creatures are enough to cause a city to go crazy and rush to buy, but here it is worthless, except for our own use, most of them will be abandoned.
Of course, this is the base of the occupied zone, and we are on a special mission.
In the war zone over there in the reconstruction area, most of the mutant beasts will still be expropriated by the government, but in order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the soldiers and encourage civilians to join the army, they will leak a few holes in proportion, but even so, the remaining amount is still considerable, and almost half of the mutant beast meat that is popular in the black market today is from our army, so you should understand! ”
Luo Yuan nodded knowingly in his heart, the times have changed, being a soldier is already a high-risk and high-income profession, not in poverty, but a special profession with important resources, everyone is well paid, if you want to make money, take the relationship with Company Commander Xia, this is indeed a way. However, he has been living in the occupied area, and money has been very light, so Luo Yuan feels that it is better to wait until he gets to the reconstruction area to familiarize himself with the situation.
Lian Commander Xia found that the other party was not very interested, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, but after thinking about it, he also felt that the other party didn't look down on these things, such a powerful evolutionary is an eye-catching character no matter where he is, and maybe even the government will pay attention to it, how can he be troubled by money, it seems that this favor can't be sent.
"What are you going to do with the serpent?" Luo Yuan turned the subject and asked.
The sixth-level mutant beast is an uncommon role even in the reconstruction area, and it is an important strategic material, even Commander Xia has only seen such a thing, but after just hesitating for a moment, he said: "This beast is killed, of course it is up to you to decide." ”
The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, at this time this green-level giant snake is still moving, full of vitality, but the movement is much smaller than before, now only the tail is still flicking, as for the upper body has been completely lying on the ground, it took a long time to twitch.
"I only need to take some of it, and you can drag the rest away," Luo Yuan shook his head and said, after all, he couldn't take it if he had more.
Then he stared at the dying serpent, turned to a few soldiers and said, "Is there a knife?" ”
"Is this a saber okay?" A soldier pulled out a short knife more than a foot long from his boot and handed it to Luo Yuan with a look of awe.
After Luo Yuan took it, he touched the blade and shook his head in his heart, this knife may be very sharp among ordinary knives, but it can't be compared to the horse chopping knife at all, not to mention cutting the skin of green-level creatures, I'm afraid even the blue level is enough.
But now the horse chopping knife is still in the throat of the giant snake, and now it can only be used, which is better than nothing.
"Thanks, I'll pay you back later!" Luo Yuan said casually.
"Ah...... Thank you, use whatever you want, use whatever you want. The soldier was not good at words, and said incoherently excitedly.
Then, Luo Yuan wiped his face, and the dried blood scabs on his face fell off one after another, revealing skin that was smoother and more delicate than that of a woman, and walked quickly towards the giant snake with a short knife.
After walking for less than a minute, Luo Yuan was already close to the giant snake, and the giant snake that was majestic and imposing more than ten minutes ago had no reaction to Luo Yuan's arrival at this time. Luo Yuan noticed the position on the top of its head, revealing a small knife tip, obviously the previous astonishing knife had pierced its skull.
Luo Yuan didn't dare to be careless, holding a short knife, he circled around it, and saw that it had not reacted, so he put his mind at ease.
To tell the truth, this is the most gorgeous creature Luo Yuan has ever seen so far, every inch of it, with a mysterious color, which is daunting, and each of its scales is the size of a football, shining silver, with intricate gold background patterns on it.
The wide mouth, the fiery red crown, the streamlined body shape, and the gorgeous hair on the tail made Luo Yuan, who was standing in front of it, feel a strange shock, even if it was dead, its residual power was still there, and its breath was so oppressive that it was breathless.
But even the living ones were killed by him, so how could he be afraid of this dead thing.
Luo Yuan tried it several times, and found that the giant snake was indeed dead, only occasionally there were some nervous convulsions, but with his strength, it didn't matter, and then he threw down the short knife, and forcefully turned the giant snake's head in the direction, and the handle of the horse chopping knife was exposed.
Then, with a hard blow, he pulled out his saber.
Motionless.
He tried again, but it still didn't move.
At this time, Luo Yuan noticed that the giant snake had barely shed much blood, and the wound caused by the insertion of the horse chopping knife was also tightly closed, almost sticking to the horse chopping knife.
"It's really a terrible self-healing ability, I'm afraid the horse chopping knife is completely bonded to the muscle tissue inside." Luo Yuan guessed in his heart that in the end, he had to use the little will he had left to cut the surrounding muscles, and then finally pulled out the knife.
Holding the horse chopping knife in his hand, he suddenly felt very awkward, his familiarity with the horse chopping knife had already surpassed his own body, even if it was light, he could clearly feel that now it was not only incredibly light, but also seemed to have changed even the material, making him feel extremely strange.
He carefully looked at the saber, and his face changed slightly. The horse chopper, which was originally synthesized and turned into black, is now completely gray and white.
This color, Luo Yuan felt very familiar, if I remember correctly, it was the original color of the horse chopping knife, and he was uncertain about using the identification technique to identify it, and sure enough, the effect of the synthesis had disappeared, and it had completely changed into its original form.
The change in the horse chopping knife made Luo Yuan secretly shocked.
The essence left behind after the synthesis of these parts, you don't have to think about it, you know that they are all absorbed by the body of the giant snake, and it is really a terrifying creature.
However, Luo Yuan was also looking forward to the body of the giant snake even more.
………………
Luo Yuan vigorously tore off the scales of the two giant snakes, although these scales are only two or three millimeters thick, the weight is extremely heavy, each piece is about a kilogram, and they will fight each other, and they will make a crisp sound like jade, and Luo Yuan bent hard, because the strength is limited, it is difficult to bend, but as a defensive scale of snakes, it should be flexible.
The best material for synthetic knives is not only required to be hard, but also extremely high in toughness, otherwise it is easy to break, and this scale is obviously a good material.
The bark of the Tianzhu tree last time has more than enough toughness and insufficient hardness, although it is also a green-level material, the sharpness is quite average, and it is okay to kill light-green-level creatures, but if you want to deal with green-level creatures, it will not work, and Luo Yuan has not been very satisfied, and now that the knife has been re-whitewashed, Luo Yuan can naturally choose better materials and synthesize.
Luo Yuan chose the direction and covered it with the body of the giant snake, so that he didn't have to worry about being noticed by the soldiers.
Immediately began to synthesize, a total of five scales were consumed before and after, and soon, a silver glittering and scorching high temperature horse chopping knife appeared in Luo Yuan's hand, and if you look closely, you will find that the horse chopping knife is not only silver and white, but also has a complex and fine black background pattern on the surface, as if it is natural with this knife, innate, and full of a mysterious atmosphere.
Luo Yuan couldn't wait to use the identification technique.
"Jiaowen chopping knife."
"Material: 165cm alloy, blood crown scales"
"Rarity: Green."
"Weight: 14kg."
"Attack: 36-41"
"Side Effect 1: Attack Speed +2
"Collateral Effect 2: Split the soil and water (passive), where it passes, the mud and rocks will automatically retreat, and the water flow will automatically separate. (The effect is weak)
"Equipment Requirements: 14 Strength"
"Comment: This is a mysterious horse chopping knife, and it carries a mysterious power, albeit weak, in its body."
Luo Yuan was pleasantly surprised to find that the attack power of the horse chopping knife had really increased a lot, and even the attack speed had increased a little, which was a surprise.
When Luo Yuan saw the final evaluation and collateral effect of the horse chopping knife, he couldn't help but be surprised.
He hurriedly experimented with it, but was disappointed that the knife did have an inexplicable mysterious power.
As soon as the knife was placed on the ground, the dirt on both sides quickly separated, leaving a concave hole about a foot deep and an inch wide, but it didn't work very well on stones, and as long as the target was the size of a fist, there was nothing that could be done.
And Luo Yuan couldn't figure out what the use of this was, he couldn't get into the ground!
Now he could only hope that the water would be of some use, but there was no water here, and it was clearly not the time to experiment.
But in addition to these abilities, it goes without saying that the newly synthesized horse chopping knife is also much better than before, of course, the only pity is that the ability of the horse chopping knife to suck life is gone, but it can be regarded as a loss and a gain, as for someone to be injured in the future, they can only think of other ways, but they will soon return to the reconstruction area, maybe they will not need to take risks in the future.
Then, Luo Yuan took the knife and began to cut the giant snake.
This kind of business, now he is quite proficient.
In order to avoid the conditioned reflex convulsions after the severe pain of the giant snake, Luo Yuan groped the position of the gap in the cervical vertebrae after uncovering the scales on his neck, and directly stabbed it into it after condensing a trace of will, and the central nervous system was suddenly destroyed, and its body tensed up, and it couldn't move.
The safety hazard is removed, and all that remains is patience.
The internal organs, snake gall bladder, and brain were all taken out by Luo Yuan one by one, and the snake skin was cut off, and they were wrapped into small bags one by one, these small bags were still wriggling, still full of vitality, one of the small bags was extraordinarily large, thumping in place, jumping one or two meters high each time, just not paying attention, it was jumped out of more than five meters away.
Luo Yuan hurriedly grabbed it back again, opened the package, and revealed a heart the size of a basin, sometimes contracting, sometimes expanding, bursting with surging power, even if it was taken out for more than ten minutes, it was still full of vitality.
In order to keep it from running around and making trouble, Luo Yuan gave it a knife and split it in half.
"Huh!"
At this time, something suddenly attracted Luo Yuan's attention.
It is a reddish-yellow solid, irregularly shaped little finger-sized piece that hangs from the top of the left atrium of the heart, as if it were a stone growing out of the heart.
"What is this?"
He pinched it with his fingers and pulled it off vigorously, and was surprised to find that as soon as this thing was lost, the beating of the heart muscle immediately weakened.
After noticing this scene, Luo Yuan's face became serious, and he hurriedly used the identification technique.
"Active Energy Rich Collective"
"Grade: Inferior"
"Weight: 5g."
"Evaluation: This is an inferior active energy rich collective, containing a large number of impurities, the active energy rich collective is a more efficient means of energy storage than fat, most of them are stored in higher organisms above the green level, through a large amount of eating and absorbing other energy, they can store the body's excess active energy in case of emergency."
