introduction
It's the end of the world, yes, I emphasize once again in my heart that it's the end of the world, the world is dead, and the people who are still alive today are like walking corpses, leaving only the dazed and desperate shell to support the broken shell, and survive for a long time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After that cataclysm, it seems that those who are alive should feel fortunate, perhaps. But Ye Xi didn't feel like this at this moment, if he wanted to ask why, it must be a sarcastic joke to discuss these things with a person who was being chased by a monster with three heads and a meter in size.
Ye Xi thought to himself, even at such a life-and-death juncture, he still had the extra mind to think about things that didn't matter, and entertaining himself in a dangerous environment was Ye Xi's forte. It's very simple, if you don't find some fun for yourself, maybe you don't need Heka to eat Ye Xi, Ye Xi might break it first.
The pupils in the eyes of the young man are the only vitality of this ruin, which is extraordinarily unique, like the dim starlight in the dark night sky, compared to the entire night sky, the refracted starlight is too insignificant, it seems that the light is about to disappear, but it has survived the years one after another.
The mental fatigue and the pain caused by the wound no longer tortured Ye Xi's spirit all the time, and Heka, who was chasing after him, was like the approaching footsteps of death, making Ye Xi's mind highly tense and not daring to relax for a moment.
"If you call more, you won't have a chance in a while." Ye Xi bit the tip of his tongue to make his spirit concentrate a little, and the will to survive seemed to manipulate the lines of the puppet, driving this fragmented body.
This long-distance race that risked his life has long been a habitual life for Ye Xi, just to survive. In this dead world, food has become the most cherished treasure of ordinary people, and being able to eat enough is the most luxurious dream, for which some people give up their dignity and chastity, some people sacrifice their physical strength, and some people gamble with their lives to fight.
Yes, it was dangerous, every night, he would wake up from a nightmare and look around in horror, even the closed room did not give him the slightest sense of security, as if he had not yet escaped from the danger. But if he didn't do it, he would have to wait for death, and his weak body couldn't do all the troublesome hard work.
Nine deaths and one life and ten deaths, this is obviously an easy question to send points.
Thirty years ago... A great event has occurred on Earth that is destined to be recorded in the history books, an unprecedented catastrophe since the domination of humans on this planet, and in just a few minutes, the wisdom and civilization of mankind have been reduced to ruins.
The sky was covered with darkness, the sun and the moon were gone, the power generation devices on the surface were destroyed in that disaster, the world was once plunged into endless darkness, and without the righteousness of science and technology, human beings deeply felt their own powerlessness, as if returning to the most primitive era.
Just when humanity was at a loss, the sky lit up with the afterglow of the catastrophe, and the gates that were opened out of thin air in all corners of the world, and the monsters that rushed out of the gates swept across the earth, trampling on this unbearable land with the iron hooves of aggression, tearing at human bodies with sharp teeth.
Human beings living in this era can only see the dilapidated ruins that bear witness to the glory of the old era, and the hell with no signs of life.
The only thing that can be called glorious is when you look up, the light that replaces the sun and the moon in the old times, is a tower whose majesty cannot be described in any language, the top of which stretches to the end of the sky, as if it were the only pillar supporting heaven and earth, and the destruction of the earth is like two extremes.
It's a strange sight that can't be explained by science, no matter where you are on the earth, even if it's the northern hemisphere or the southern hemisphere, as long as you're still stepping on the earth's soil, when you look up, you can always see that tower.
In fact, after the civilization of the old era disappeared into the long river of history and reduced to the dust of the past, what happened in this world has long been impossible to explain with science, and the common sense that was once active in the old era is now an incomprehensible phenomenon.
…
Bang~
The sound of the stone collapse is particularly piercing in this silent area, and the monster ~ can feel that it is a monster that is not much different from a human form, standing in front of the ruins and gnawing on pieces of flesh and blood, the fingertips on the fingers are like sharp claws, easily tearing apart the pieces of flesh, and even the pupils that no longer exist in the whites of the eyes, so black that only violence and killing remain, and the long hair is as terrifying as black thorns.
He seemed to be a lonely king, completely unaware that the flesh he gnawed on was the most difficult monster in the area, and even the veteran hunter had to take a detour, maybe he knew, but he just disdained. There is no need to show off in front of others, there is no need to shout the joy of victory, it is as natural as slaughtering a chicken to fill your belly.
In a dilapidated shop, swords and firearms are on display, and at the counter there is a tape recorder that looks a little older, and the records lie on the tape recorder and turn over and over again, as if a lonely dancer recounts the past.
The music is miscellaneous, and it's clear that the record didn't burn perfectly, or even badly, and the hissing cacophony made the music that had swept the old days noisy.
If it weren't for the fact that Chloe was a survivor of the old days, he might not have known what a record was. Chloe listened not to music, but to reminiscence, this noisy melody seemed to be a witness to the past, reminded Chloe of a lot of good things, intoxicated in a wonderful dream, the scar on the corner of Chloe's mouth seemed to be no longer hideous and terrible with the magnitude of Viyan.
Knock knock knock ~ The sound of someone's approaching footsteps was very light, but it was very harsh in Chloe's ears, which interrupted his dream, and he maintained the shotgun in his hand with a slight pause, and when he saw the figure at the door, his tone was a little surprised.
"Ye Xi, I didn't expect that your kid has a hard life, he went to the chaos area for a walk, and he actually came back alive!"
"I almost died, I was chased by three Hekas, and I almost broke my leg when I ran." Ye Xi sat weakly on the chair in front of the counter, and without Chloe's permission, he took the kettle and poured himself a glass of water.
"Hey, young man, I reminded you, until you become a first-order hunter, it's best not to run out of the Anding area to see the scenery, it's not something ordinary people can mix up with."
"Maybe after I finish this vote, I can become a real hunter." Ye Xi licked her dry lips after drinking her saliva.
"How so? Did you find something good? Chloe raised an eyebrow, her gaze moving from the shotgun to the boy.
"Pretty much."
Ye Xi threw out a cloth bag casually as if throwing garbage, the cloth bag shook on the table, and several small crystalline stones fell out of the cloth bag.
Chloe's brows were furrowed, and he was obviously dissatisfied with Ye Xi's harvest: "Gems? Hey, lad, you should understand that these are not the old days, and a gem is not worth as much as a cookie at this time, and if it is just these things, I am afraid it will not be enough for you to buy a rune. ”
"You take a closer look first, you also know that those hunters at the door are all vampires, I don't beware of them, these goods have not arrived here, they have to be cut off for various reasons."
"It's not unreasonable that you kid can live until now, luck can't save waste, even the goddess of luck's own son is no exception."
As he spoke, Chloe carefully flipped through the gems in the cloth bag, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, his rough fingers scooped up a pile of gems, and then discharged three stones on the table that were similar to gems but somewhat different, they had a crystal appearance, but if you looked closely, you could see that there were subtle lines hidden in the stones, like the DNA of life.
"This is Heka's Life Core, how did you get this thing, Life Core is not something you can get by luck alone."
The life core is a unique product after the cataclysm, this is the core of the monster in the chaos zone, it has many uses, the runes engraved by the hunter and the weapons used, its casting basis is composed of life cores, a life core, enough for Ye Xi to eat and drink in the stable area for a month, in other words, Chloe is not only three stones on the table, but also means a three-month meal ticket and... a chance to be reborn.
"Three life cores, it is indeed a rune that has been bought, although it is the lowest quality rune, it is always much stronger than a wanderer." Chloe smiled faintly and symbolically encouraged.
"I was lucky enough to find a ruin that was about to collapse, and the stone pillars supporting it were about to crumble, and I estimated that it would collapse in half a year at most. This is a natural hunting ground, and the buildings more than ten meters high are enough to crush the flesh and blood of these Hekas. I almost took my own life to lure them into a trap. Ye Xi's tone was still a little terrifying, this was the closest he was to death, if he was one step slower, not only Heka, but even he would be crushed under the stones by tall buildings, fortunately, at the last moment, he felt like he had taken a stimulant, beyond his potential.
"You're so crazy, even real hunters don't dare to hunt in this way, the movement caused by the collapse of the tall building is likely to attract more Heka, or even more advanced monsters, it's a miracle that you survived."
"Wandering is not a way out, this is a chronic suicide, and even if you survive the pursuit of those monsters, you will have a nervous breakdown one day. I'm going to have to find a real way out for myself. ”
"Well, you deserve it, brave lad." After Chloe accepted the three life cores, he took out three seals from the cabinet with special patterns, these seals were very thin, only slightly thicker than pieces of paper, and the patterns engraved on them had an ethereal aura, making the texture on the seals look as if they were alive.
"The value of the three life cores can only be bought by you to buy one of these three runes, you have to choose carefully. For hunters, once a rune is chosen, it cannot be changed. ”
"Is there any difference between the three runes?" Ye Xi held one of the seals in his hand, this was the first time he had seen the real thing, and he could only look at it from a distance outside the store a few times before. The seal lay in Ye Xi's palm, and with a little force, the seal was not deformed at all, not like the touch of ironwork, but it was very hard.
"This rune, when you engrave it, you can reduce your physical exertion by twenty percent when you move."
"Hmm~ It feels pretty good, it means I can last longer, if I was a wanderer, maybe I would have chosen this one, but now I'm targeting a hunter. It's my job to kill monsters. Ye Xi was thoughtful.
"Even in battle, you need to move frequently, your rune can indirectly improve your staying power, many times, the last person to survive, not that he is stronger, but that he lasts longer than the other party."
"Okay, what is the power of the second rune." Ye Xi obviously didn't have much interest, he was already tired of being chased and run, this time, he wanted to take the initiative.
"The second one is much simpler, when you are hit by an impact of less than twenty forces, it can help you block and knock back one meter, it can only be used once a day, and it can block three impacts. If you enable this rune, it will take effect within half an hour, and if you don't run out of blocks during that time, you won't be able to activate it a second time. ”
Ye Xi shook his head and raised the rune in his hand.
Twenty strength means twice the limit of ordinary people, an adult man usually only has six or seven points of strength, only a very small number can reach eight or nine points, and ten points are basically newly promoted hunters and some natural strongmen. But it's still not the ability Ye Xi wants.
"As for the one in your hand, it may be to your taste, when activated, your next attack will increase your strength by four points, and you can use it three times a day."
"It feels nondescript, is it still good?" Ye Xi seemed to be very dissatisfied with the quality of these runes.
"You don't have a choice, young man, three life cores can only buy this kind of goods."
"If you really have to choose, just this one in my hand, there is no reason to return what is in my hands." Ye Xi flicked the seal in his hand and turned a few circles in the air.
