Chapter 76: Trekking Alone

Now Qiao Haoyu has sufficient rations, and after having the experience of cooking giant rats, this time he is familiar with the road and has the demeanor of a sophisticated hunter, or that routine, boiling water is disinfected twice, and then cut into pieces and boiled, in order to cook thoroughly, he also deliberately cut an opening on the meat piece, and some scattered seasonings collected also came in handy, this time the boiled meat is obviously much more delicious than the last time. I couldn't hold back my appetite, and I ate another meal before I stopped happily.

The time has entered November, the night is chilly, and you can even see the frost on the blades of grass at dawn, although the alienation of the plants makes the plants appear strange and lush, but the climate still clearly tells Qiao Haoyu that winter is approaching, and Qiao Haoyu knows that this winter is destined to be as difficult as a nightmare for most people.

For Qiao Haoyu, there is a benefit to the change of climate, that is, the boiled meat can be cold and air-dried as ration storage, and there is no need to worry about it breaking down in a short time, so when Qiao Haoyu left the Taihe vegetable garden, he looked in good condition, carrying a cover roll made of strange skin, carrying a canvas schoolbag that had faded into gray-green, wearing old clothes that did not match but were comfortable and wearable, and holding the spear that was more and more comfortable the more he used it, it looked like a bit of the legendary beggar boy's atmosphere, and it made people feel that the smell of escape was coming from afar.

Early in the morning of November 22, Qiao Haoyu set foot on the road to Donghuang Town, and he calculated that with his current foot strength, even if he encountered several aliens on the road, he was sure to arrive in Donghuang Town before sunset.

People who can endure loneliness are always good at finding things to do to pass the boring time.

Qiao Haoyu is considered to be a good player, except for flipping coins between his fingers; Practice knotting and buckle; In addition to playing the harmonica and organizing his bags, he is also very cranky, often lying in the shade of a tree or on a rocky mountain with a piece of grass in his mouth, looking at the white clouds in the sky, and thinking about it for an afternoon or even a whole day.

When trekking alone, cranky thoughts are Qiao Haoyu's best choice to overcome tiredness and some other negative feelings.

This time, the theme of the rambling is to name the ability skills you've mastered so far.

With the recent duels and struggles, several skills have been largely finalized, and naming them is a rewarding and fun experience, as well as making it easier to use them.

Of course, all the qiē and qiē are just to pass the boredom and boredom in the heart of this journey, if you don't find something to do, those deep and piercing memories and pictures will make Qiao Haoyu collapse and go crazy......

"Yang Force Red Flame" and "Yin Force Thunder" are the two names that Qiao Haoyu feels very imposing and very emotional as the names of his basic energy, corresponding to Yang Force and Yin Force respectively, "Yang Force Red Flame" comes with fire attribute and "Yin Force Stuffy Thunder" comes with ice attribute, which is the optimal attribute change that Qiao Haoyu can produce when studying pure energy harmony and excitation, but for now, these two kinds of energy release attacks from Yang Force and Yin Force Harmony and Excitation have too high requirements for themselves, and they are very reluctant to urge and a bit thankless, but Qiao Haoyu believes that this attack will become more and more powerful as he becomes stronger. In addition, these two kinds of energy can be attached to themselves or weapons to obtain power amplification, of course, these skills are still very superficial, take "Yang Force Chiyan" as an example, he has also attached energy to his fists and feet for amplification, but it is much worse than the purity and power of the energy that was harmonized and excited during the research, and it seems that there is still a long way to go if you want to skillfully apply it to actual combat.

"Rejuvenation" is a skill used in physical healing based on life energy, and the effect is a slow and continuous recovery of physical trauma and a certain number of undesirable states, such as hunger, fatigue, poisoning, etc. This skill played a crucial role in the battle against the Spider Alien, and he constantly repaired his condition in order to finally succeed in bringing down the Spider Alien. It's just that this skill still needs to be further developed, and the effects stimulated by the different harmony of various energies are also different, and at present, Qiao Haoyu has only roughly mastered the simple method of use and has not acted on the actual experience of others.

Based on the energy of the life system, supplemented by elemental factors, yang power and other energies, the two skills acting on the plant system are "blooming" and "nourishing".

"Blooming" can make plants grow rapidly and change the physiological structure and basic form according to certain laws during childbirth, this skill has just scratched some clues, and there is still a long way to go before it is really put into use, it can only be said that Qiao Haoyu has discovered the potential and effect of this energy harmony and stimulation.

"Nourishment", this is a wonderful skill, it can activate plant-based materials, after activation, Qiao Haoyu can transform and refine its internal texture, and this transformation and refinement is gradual, changing with his perception of energy. Taking the spear that used to be a broomstick handle in his hand as an example, through the initial activation of the transformation and the subsequent play, the current internal texture structure has already changed beyond recognition, and it is more rigid and soft, and it is easy to attach. With this spear in his hand, he even has a kind of blood-related rush that is very handy, and as the time of playing is extended, there is a tendency to further strengthen the connection with his bloodline. This made him realize that the most suitable weapon for him might be available through guò, constantly strengthened and fine-tuned, and would always be best suited to his current self, rather than holding some kind of dead object called a sharp weapon and adapting to it himself.

"Bloodthirsty Fury" This is a state that Qiao Haoyu loves, hates and is a little afraid, as long as this state is turned on, then he will lose part of his rationality and be extremely cruel and murderous, although he has to admit that in this state, his combat power can be maximized, at least for now. However, this state also has great hidden dangers and risks, and it is best not to touch this forbidden area unless it is a matter of life and death. He vaguely realized that the ultimate result of this power was the beginning of his complete loss of self, and that relying too much on this state was very bad for his growth and security. Taking this battle with the Spider Girl as an example, he has been recovering for a long time longer than before, so will he finally be able to recover his normal forever and lose himself forever?

Time flies in his thoughts, and before he knows it, he has left the Taihe vegetable garden for more than fifteen kilometers. Qiao Haoyu didn't feel tired, but he was still ready to rest nearby, and he was not only the need for a long journey, but also the foundation of ensuring that he coped with emergencies.

Taihe vegetable garden to the east is Wangjiagou, and after Wangjiagou is Changjiagou. Qiao Haoyu's current location has entered the boundary of Changjiagou.

I saw the iconic steel-framed iron shed under the mountain road, which was a gas station. After a short groan, he walked straight to the gas station.

More than 50 meters away from the gas station, I saw an extremely simple but relatively large sign on the side of the road, on which a few words were written crookedly: Donghuang Town has fallen, and the rest area in the station provides food and lodging.

"Alas!" Qiao Haoyu couldn't help but shake his head and sighed.

Qiao Haoyu was mentally prepared for the fall of Donghuang Town, but when he really got such news, he still couldn't help but feel bad. If there was still hope for the recovery of the Western Imperial City in a short period of time before, then with the fall of the Eastern Imperial Town, this possibility has basically been dispersed.

In the Western Imperial City, there are more than 2.8 million citizens and 500,000 floating population, how many people are alienated? How many people survived? How many people died? How many lives are worse than death? Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle. In the war-torn cities in the Arab region, the large refugee concentration camps overlooking the plane are also huge, and even then they can only accommodate hundreds of thousands of refugees. With a population of nearly three million, it's terrifying to think about.
