0037 The Road to Fire I
In the warehouses of the three small towns, Cen Mu collected some special biological specimens, which were originally bargaining chips in exchange for goods with the dog master, and were selected by Cen Mu.
After a round of energy analysis, Cen Mu gained 65 points of universal star energy, which is another happy number, this is the benefit of mastering power and resources, you can immediately get a leap enhancement, and, in the future, the supply of specimens in these three towns will be endless, and Cen Mu can sit back and enjoy the results.
Judging from his current ability distribution status, he only needs to invest another 54 points of star energy to fully master the ability "Flame Seed", which will inevitably activate more fire control ability, but he doesn't want to do this, because there are other ways to improve the flame seed, and there is no need to waste precious universal star energy points.
Moreover, star energy points are different from evolution points, it itself contains unique abilities, as long as it is used, the corresponding runes will be formed in a short period of time, and the runes are abilities, which avoids the process of normal people eating for a long time to replenish energy before promotion, and there is no need to worry about the risk of incomplete promotion due to lack of energy.
Cen Mu's idea was to find a natural source of fire in this vicinity, replenish the starlight of the "Flame Seed" by drawing energy for directional analysis, and hunt in the periphery by the way, looking for more materials that could absorb starlight.
Leaving Xingtian Town, Cen Mu carried a big package, most of which were prepared for him by Little Mustard Seed, although this little girl was young, her mind was very delicate and thoughtful.
Yun Qi originally wanted to drive him directly to an active volcano fifty miles away, but Cen Mu refused, he went out with the purpose of training.
Yun Qi and his party sent him to the gate of the town.
Little Mustard couldn't help but tell him repeatedly: "Brother Xiao Cen has to come back early!" ”
looked like he was afraid that he would never return, which made the others laugh.
Cen Mu touched her head, turned around and walked out of the town.
In the early morning, Cen Mu withstood the thick radiation clouds, and gradually disappeared into the haze under the gaze of the people in the town......
According to Tie Gang's map, there is an active volcano in the northeast of Xingtian Town, 50 kilometers away, called "Black Stone Mountain", with an altitude of more than 600 meters and a crater diameter of 1,027 meters, like a big pot of stewed soup, filled with hot magma.
In the center of the lava lake, there is a spring in the center of the earth that still bubbles out lava flows, and when it is rapid, it even erupts a lava column several meters high.
The perennial eruption of the Black Rock Mountain has formed a lava landscape with a radius of 10 kilometers around the perimeter, and when the weather is good, you can see volcanic clouds glowing red in the distance in Xingtian Town.
It was an active volcano formed in the year of nuclear warfare, when a small nuclear bomb exploded there, blasting through the weak crust and opening up the underground lava sac, and that time, the volcano erupted for three days and three nights, forming a lava mountain with an altitude of more than 600 meters in the plains.
The power of the nuclear bomb and the volcanic eruption turned this land with a radius of 200 kilometers centered on the explosion point into a dead field, and it took more than 100 years for the radiation to decay to the extent that living things can adapt to it, and it gradually became vibrant, and it took nearly 20 years for human beings to migrate.
Starting from Xingtian Town, to reach Blackstone Mountain, you will pass through the territory of four other towns along the way, and you may be attacked by strangers at any time, so you must be vigilant.
Fifty kilometers away, it is not far, but there is no road in the wilderness, every step is to overcome thorns and thorns, with Cen Mu's current speed, to reach the Black Stone Mountain, it will be two days later.
It has been more than half a month since Cen Mu was teleported to this wilderness, and he has some understanding of the climate here.
Here, there are only two seasons in a year, the dry season and the rainy season.
In fact, the dry season is not dry, but relatively speaking, there are fewer days without rain, and the temperature is suitable; As soon as the rainy season comes, it will be rainy and last, it can last for a month or two, the whole wilderness is foggy, the water can soak the ankles, everywhere is wet, the temperature is close to freezing, and there are many unknown creatures under the water.
It's the dry season, when is the rainy season? Cen Mu didn't know, he thought of the seasons at this time, and just wanted to speculate on the location of this wilderness based on the relationship between geography and climate.
Sanlian City is located in the northern hemisphere, when Cen Mu was teleported, it was winter, and the characteristics of the season here are more like in the equatorial region, so look at it, the Federation should be in his north, but unfortunately a thick radiation cloud overhead blocked his further confirmation, Cen Mu did not dare to be sure of this speculation, nuclear war not only greatly changed the climate of the earth, but also changed the outline of the continent, the earth's crust became very unstable, geological movements became more frequent, more violent, in the wilderness, lava landforms and geothermal hot springs can be seen everywhere.
A hundred or two hundred years later, the continents have been shattered and drifted apart, and the whole world has changed beyond recognition, and if someone were to measure and draw a new map of the world, the results would be surprising to everyone.
"Alas!" Cen Mu looked at the vast wilderness and sighed, the way back is still long!
After having the physique of a lizard, Cen Mu's physical strength has been significantly enhanced, and his weight-bearing capacity has also been increased, this time he went out with a Thor, a Glo-Ke G19, a high-quality knife, a number of ammunition, half a month's worth of food and water, a military tent, and a field kit.
Such equipment cannot be said to be inadequately prepared, but the choice of these three weapons is a bit incomprehensible, and at first glance, it is not known what kind of ability he is.
Cen Mu walked three thousand meters on the grassland, and when he saw a stone pile made of simple stones, he knew that he had stepped out of the sphere of influence of the three major towns, and the area in front of him belonged to the public area, and there was no patrol team to clean and maintain it regularly, and it was a place full of crises in the wilderness.
Gradually, the vegetation began to thin out, the grass became shorter, and the withered yellow shrubs were clumped in the east and west, strange shapes, looking like dormant beasts.
Not long after, a rotten skin spotted hyena appeared in Cen Mu's field of vision, its fur was very dirty, stained with blood and dust, and several wounds with torn fur could be vaguely discerned at the back of the waist, which was rotting, making its movements somewhat deformed.
However, the hyena's body startled Cen Mu, and he immediately lowered himself and ducked behind a bush.
This hyena is close to a lion's size!
In the old days, wild hyenas are predators with the same name as wolves, although they seem to be small in size, and their attack power does not seem to be strong, but in fact it is as dangerous as wolves, there is no gap between their teeth, the mouth is not open much, and the bite force is very amazing, this feature is specially used for bone crushing and disemboweling, the maximum bite force can reach 450 kilograms, even if it is a wild buffalo with a strong body, it can easily tear open the thick cowhide, and this is only the data of the old era.
The weight of this hyena is estimated to be around 120 kilograms, and the bite force may reach 1800 kilograms! Measured by the standards of the wilderness, it is equivalent to a third-order strength ability, the problem is that this hyena is just a scout in the dog group, there are at least a dozen such hyenas, and this standard hyena has surpassed the hyenas that Cen Mu encountered in the Mangyuan back then.
Cen Mu definitely didn't want to be bitten by it, not to mention that this bite could tear his flesh and bones, the hundreds of deadly germs hidden in its saliva were also a huge threat!
Now Cen Mu can realize the power of Protos at the beginning, when Protos was there, his body was immune to all toxins and germs, imagine how rebellious this ability was.
At this time, it was a crosswind, Cen Mu didn't have to worry that his smell would be smelled by it, it was quite simple to kill this one, one bullet could do it, the problem was that this was the territory of mutant beasts, who knows what kind of big guy this shot would lead out?!
Cen Mu thought about it, but decided to stay still and avoid it.
Suddenly, a lurking snake in the bushes raised its head, its triangular head grew particularly large, and there were two scarlet horns on the top of the snake's eyes, it sensed a trace of abnormality, and the snake body coiled in the bushes swam silently, slowly approaching Cen Mu's side, and the scarlet letter spit out and hissed.
Cen Mu had already detected the existence of this strange snake, the distance between the two was three meters, and the snake's vision has always been very poor, Cen Mu thought that it would not be discovered by it, but he didn't expect to miscalculate.
Cen Mu's heart moved, activated the "change temperature" skill, blood circulation slowed down rapidly, breathing gradually slowed down, pores were all closed, half a minute later, the body temperature decreased by ten degrees, and a minute later, Cen Mu's body surface temperature was close to the surrounding temperature.
There was a puzzled look in the eyes of the strange snake, its eyes could clearly see that there was something different, but after a moment, the infrared perception disappeared, and at this time, its tongue and eyes clashed, a phenomenon that had never appeared in its short life.
The snake stared for a long time, and finally decided to trust its tongue, because it was its strongest sensory organ.
Seeing the red-horned viper with thinking eyes, Cen Mu felt that it was really a fucking place, even the snake gave birth to such a high IQ! Do you want people to live!
The hyena raised its ears and looked around, but found nothing unusual, and then it took a step forward, gradually disappearing into the vast mist.
At some point after it left, poof!
A powerful heartbeat sounded, and the snake's head thrashed again.
It was too late, but it was too fast, and a dagger came out and threw it out with lightning speed......
Swish! The dagger severed the branches and leaves of the bush and nailed it straight into the center of the two red horns, piercing its upper and lower jaws and nailing it to the ground.
"Hmm! Not bad! Cen Mu couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly, the flying knife technique was still practiced around Luosong City, it had not been used for so long, and the skill had not been lost.
The red-horned viper suddenly suffered a heavy blow, and its whole body writhed violently, entangled together, and clamped the dagger to death, submerging it with its body, even if the scales were cut by the blade, it was so ferocious! It's shocking to watch!
After a few moments, the viper "pulled" the dagger out of the dirt and struggled to finally break free of the dagger, but it was wounded to the head and it was dying.
It continued to struggle for nearly ten minutes before it gradually stiffened and stopped, looking dead, and its vitality was so tenacious!
Cen Mu pulled out the knife, stretched it out, and picked it up.
I saw a black shadow flashing, and the strange snake that was still frozen just now bit on the knife, and its fangs and blades collided violently, making a "squeak" friction sound.
Cen Mu laughed and said, "Heh! Still want to yin me?! ”
Now it was almost dead, Cen Mu used the knife to pick its corpse into the bag, at least 3 points of star energy into the account, Cen Mu was very happy.
