0013 Hunting II

Acting alone, Cen Mu felt a lot freer, he was different from this group of urban soldiers, who always unconsciously carried a trace of crushing everything in the wilderness, so, along the way, they couldn't touch many native creatures, because, this way of marching is no different from marching while beating drums, the senses of wild beasts are keen, not to mention galloping, even the footsteps of light imprints can arouse the vigilance of many creatures.

Cen Mu didn't say it explicitly, and there was no need to say it explicitly, snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths, and when their ways didn't work, it was naturally Cen Mu's turn to use his ways.

Cen Mu's speed is not fast, nor slow, he is very particular about his feet, he will not run over the dry blades of grass, his steps are light, and he falls silently, except for some insects lurking in the surface of the soil, Cen Mu's movements will not disturb any creatures, just like that, Cen Mu melted into this tundra, and he followed the map in his mind towards the water source area......

The water source area is centered on a nearly dry river, no one knows where the river originated, only that it seeped out of the shale of the insect canyon, and then explored, it is a complex underground dark river like a spider's web, the water flow is slightly abundant in spring, and in autumn and winter, the river is almost dry, therefore, in autumn and winter, the competition for water between native organisms is the most intense, and the weaker creatures will die of thirst, and only the stronger creatures can occupy a good position in the water source area.

In order to conserve the resources, many old mutant beasts nest near the source of the river, which is why the water source area has become so dangerous, and these powerful mutant creatures seem to have established some kind of tacit understanding, which is like a kind of agreement that allows them to live so intensively, but they can live in peace.

As we continue to go deeper, gradually, the plants begin to change, some trees that exceed the height of ordinary people appear in the field of vision, and the grass environment under the trees becomes more complex, perhaps because of the pressure of high-level creatures, there are no traces of poisonous insects in these dense grasses, it is very abnormal, the vegetation here is more dense, and the creatures under the vegetation are much cleaner than the grass in ordinary areas.

The temperature rose slightly by two degrees Celsius, the humidity in the air gradually increased, there was not a trace of wind, and the scorching sun was blocked by the dense trees.

After approaching the water source, the insects began to appear, the more in, the more and more dense mosquitoes, the larger the size, they seemed to be stimulated by the "mutated beast aura", they grew unusually huge, one by one the floaters spread their wings and were the size of a baby's fist, flying in the air in groups, "buzzing" hovering overhead, making people both annoyed and nervous.

This kind of mosquito feeds on the blood of mutated beasts, and has evolved some extraordinary abilities, compared with the mosquitoes of the old era, this kind of mosquito has a higher IQ and stronger toxicity, after ordinary people are bitten, they will induce all kinds of syndromes, and even life-threatening, and their speed is faster, the body is more tenacious, ordinary people can't slap it to death, their straws are harder, thicker, longer, the straws of the largest mosquitoes have the thickness of toothpicks, and they plunge down, and they can't imagine how much blood they will be sucked, and what is more terrifying is that They always come in groups.

Cen Mu was prepared, the mosquito repellent medicine he bought in the town worked wonders, and with the barrier of multiple layers of cloth, these mosquitoes did not cause much trouble.

Cen Mu's clothes do not have the function of temperature regulation, so he has to rely on his own ability to adjust, he let his heartbeat slow down dozens of beats, take a few deep breaths, and slowly exhale a breath of turbidity, a stream of high-temperature gas, and the heat accumulated in the body will be discharged from the body with this turbidity, Cen Mu can't help but tremble, it is very comfortable.

This is a series of new abilities that he has discovered, which have been used in the desert areas of the tundra - in short, the use of subjective consciousness to control behavior that would otherwise be controlled by "biological instincts". In addition to this ability, he can also control the secretion of gastric acid in the stomach, and if necessary, can relieve hunger and reduce tail damage; It can control hair and hair, close pores, reduce body functions, etc., all kinds of small abilities allow him to quickly adapt to the harsh environment.

Cen Mu quickened his pace to go deeper.

Three hundred meters in front of the left, there was a giant crocodile more than five meters long, looking at the size, this giant crocodile could be regarded as a hegemonic existence in the water source area, and Cen Mu didn't want to have any contact with it.

There is a spotted tiger salamander on the right side of the front, which is listed in the list of rare creatures provided by the owner of the 'Tundra Department Store', which is amphibious, highly poisonous, and other attributes vary with different levels, and the danger level is equivalent to the same level, and it is also a difficult guy. However, its whole body is a treasure, after the salamander skin is dried and crushed, the external application has a miraculous effect on all kinds of skin diseases, the venom gland of the spotted tiger salamander is a necessary material for a class of rare biological agents, the salamander including the egg, all parts can be used in medicine, if you can bring it back, this salamander is worth at least 120 points.

Cen Mu thought to himself, if it weren't for the lizard, this place was a natural hunting ground, all kinds of rare creatures bloomed everywhere, and after catching the lizard, he could consider this side as the main battlefield.

Cen Mu stood in place, picked up a few pieces of soil from the ground, pinched them into mud balls, and threw them out, judging the perception range of these mutated beasts little by little, the giant crocodile's reaction was slightly sluggish, and the effective warning distance was more than 110 meters, and the salamander was different, its vigilance range was particularly long, reaching more than 200 meters, which was equivalent to two-thirds of the range of Cen Mu's perception field, no wonder it was on the list of dangerous creatures, Cen Mu carefully bypassed this salamander.

Soon, Cen Mu found a mangyuan python, this golden python was entangled in a circle on the root of a huge decaying tree, the whole stack, like a pile of huge Xiang, it is impossible to estimate its body length, obviously not a good stubble, the biggest advantage of this python is strength, in the old era, strength is the main attribute of this type of python, in the new era, the main attribute is especially strengthened, it is estimated that the peak strength of such a giant python may reach the fifth order, once Cen Mu is entangled, there is no possibility of survival, The good thing is that speed is not its strength.

Less than 100 meters away from the giant python, there is a wind snake, this is a species that only appeared in the new era, a kind of poisonous snake that will give birth to the speed to the extreme, through the catalysis of radioactive substances, the spine and the snake skin have mutations, and some bone spurs grow from the spine, and the bone spurs are connected by the flesh membrane into a piece, and then form the flesh membrane wings, the wings assist in accelerating the outbreak, making their speed reach the fourth order on average, almost the fastest creature in the tundra region, once targeted, it is difficult to escape, its other weapon is its poison, known as " Mangyuan's first strange poison", and one of the unique abilities of the wind snake is "venom spray", its venom can be sprayed three meters away, and it is very accurate, with speed, the wind snake can easily spit venom into the opponent's eyes or other weak parts, causing great pain and continuous damage, the older the wind snake, the stronger the poison, which is also one of the creatures that Cen Mu is absolutely unwilling to provoke.

For these two creatures, Cen Mu didn't dare to throw stones to ask for directions, just a distance of 100 meters, for the wind snake, but in an instant, for the giant python, Cen Mu felt that his head was as big as a fight, the strength was crushing, the speed was not weak, and the defense was amazing, and the creatures with this combination of attributes were almost Cen Mu's nemesis.

Cen Mu had to slow down his pace as much as possible, turn the communicator to a silent state, and use the advantage of the sensing field little by little to test the perception limits of these creatures, and find a way around the river.

Trembling all the way, Cen Mu searched for information about the sand lizard along the road, and every time he bypassed a creature, Cen Mu silently recorded its characteristics and perfected the map information in his mind.

In this way, even with the crutches, Cen Mu gradually went deep into the core of the water source area, and could already see the side of the river with the naked eye, less than a kilometer of twists and turns, winding around a little thrilling, and wrapped himself into the encirclement of a group of mutant beasts, if he was not careful, he would be besieged by a large group of beasts.

Cen Mu continued to search along the riverbank, and after about 1.7 kilometers, Cen Mu finally found the trace of this lizard!
