Since hiding in the basement, Li Pu has spent most of his time receiving intensive training from his adoptive mother, followed by the test of signing up for monks, and has not been out for more than a month. When he walked outside www.biquge.info the company's factory with his "family", including Di Tianxia, he saw the street scene of the English town, which was completely different from before.

The streets were empty, there was not a single figure in sight, and many of the houses were in tatters, apparently having been smashed and looted. But the more varied vegetation was the greenery, some of which were supposed to be the unusual growth of the cedar trees planted on the sides of the street, and the thick rhizomes even looked like swollen veins pushing through the earth, revealing half of them on the outside. The branches, which should have been hard, now hang down flexibly like willows, and the branches with large and small nodules and tentacles, swaying slowly in the cold wind that occasionally blows.

Wrong. Li Pu's first feeling was like this. Those "deciduous trees" are very wrong, not only because of the simple abnormality of appearance.

Because they are not all fixed to the sides of the street, these apparently mutated trees leave where they should have been planted. to where they shouldn't.

- Concrete watered flat land.

Li Pu thought for a moment and began to approach one of the closest mutant fir trees, only a dozen meters away. He wanted to be sure of one thing.

When it came to arm's length away from the mutant fir tree, the mutant fir tree remained motionless. But Li Pu tried to take another step, and the moment his feet didn't hit the ground, a sudden change occurred! A few pliable whips hidden in the dense branches rolled towards Li Pu in multiple directions! The ends even split the air, causing a crisp crackling sound.

With such strength and speed, coupled with a multi-angle siege, as long as it is within the attack range, let alone ordinary humans, I am afraid that even a large beast that is vigilant will be hit. But Li Pu only adjusted his stance slightly, while raising his right hand in a faster motion.

In the blink of an eye, the mutant fir tree's multiple attacks had missed, and the volleys were entangled with each other. And a whip used to attack was held by Li Pu, and it was torn off with a shake of luck.

Li Pu also withdrew a long enough distance as he tore off the branches of the mutant cedar tree. The mutant cedar tree suddenly shook its branches, and a large number of thick roots were like countless wriggling, climbing freaks, moving in his direction at a slight speed faster than a human walk.

"Is this a mutation of the Meteor Hammer?" Li Pu looked at the mutated branch in his hand that was still churning and writhing like a dying snake, squirting juice from the fracture. At the tip of the branch is a hard spike like a meteor hammer, about slightly larger than a baseball.

Looking at the speed of the twitching of the branch just now, as well as the impact kinetic energy that Li Pu estimated when he grabbed it, if he was whipped on the head by this thing, the hardest skull and braincase in the human body would be directly pulled to pieces.

Di Tianxia patted Li Pu on the shoulder, "Some of the trees that have been infected by the rain have become thicker in their roots, and they can be pulled out of the soil like an octopus and walk freely on land. Buried under the leaves of the trees, they are deformed into nodulous spikes that can be used to prey on animals, and then use their rhizomes to absorb nutrients from the carcasses. ”

"If even the deciduous trees planted on the roadside become deadly ambush predators, the world really won't be lonely." Li Pu put aside the half of his hand that was still quite active, desperately struggling with the wriggling thorny branches.

"It's only been so long, and the world ...... Has it already gotten so bad? Chen Tian sighed faintly.

"These mutated deciduous trees will stay quiet when they are full. The one that is coming towards you seems to have not been replenished for a long time. Di Tianxia glanced at the cedar trees, "They have no fear, they act completely on instinct, but fortunately they are not fast enough, and can only rely on ambushes, which is their biggest shortcoming." Let's go, there's no need to fight with plants. ”

Following Di Tianxia, they came to a locked garage. Inside is stored a Mercedes G-Class luxury off-road vehicle. Di Tianxia beckoned Li Pu and others to put large bags of supplies into the car, he was responsible for driving, and Li Pu sat in the co-pilot. Chentianxin's mother and son sat in the back.

"It's been more than fifty days since the global rainstorm caused by the Sending Star Demon, and no place is safe. Most of the population either hid in their homes or fled to the revival bases where the army was stationed. Di Tianxia started the car, "The first batch to move has already left town. The ones who have only now been transferred are basically consuming too much stored water and forced to leave their families to save themselves. Of course, on the outside, we are such refugees. ”

"For ordinary people, who make up the vast majority of the population, the world has become a strange deadly jungle after the rain. Everything I took for granted has changed. The trees on the street, the former family pets, and of course ......"

Di Tianxia drove onto the road in an off-road vehicle, "There are neighbors who used to be human beings." ”

"As time goes on, there will be a huge scarcity of supplies." Chenxian leaned on the car window, witnessing the desolate street scene, and her mood was a little low, "The foundation of modern civilization is built on the division of labor and cooperation of billions of people. If the civilization of the past was a super-giant machine with countless interlocking engines, which had been dismantled into gears after a rainstorm, perhaps the clockwork would have been tighter, and the individual engines would have started at full strength, but the broken links of the whole would have caused a domino-like collapse. If there is no miracle...... The population of the earth must be reduced by at least one digit. ”

You're right, so many countries or cities that can be considered "single engines" have begun to build their own survival bases. This was also one of the original plans, but I didn't expect the Sending Star Demon to use such an overwhelming method. At the time, many professionals involved in the analysis predicted that the most serious crisis would be a large mutation in marine life. ”

Di Tianxia continued: "If you want to make use of all the Star Boat heritage, you must not leave the United States. After all, the United States is the country that has salvaged the most legacy, and it is also the most powerful and powerful country on the planet once - but if it rashly enters the area controlled by the US military and publishes its own bargaining chips, there will be no room for negotiation, only the exploitation of the so-called "cooperation". ”

"So, we need to lead a multinational conference and use the remnants of civilization to develop a revival fortress around alien heritage and resources. It is only under mutual constraints that it is possible for countries to put aside their selfishness and unite as much as possible. And the location ...... It is better to choose a Eurasian country that is not strong enough. The population of Eurasia accounts for more than 75% of the world's population, and population is very important if civilization is to be revived. Your goal is to find a fortress suitable for the revival of human civilization, the ultimate civilization fortress that is resistant to all invasions except for the Parasitor itself. When this fortress is built, a lot of resources will be completely concentrated. It will be a kind of unity that humanity has never had. ”

Di Tianxia finally concluded: "At that time, the only you who have extraterrestrial technology and resources will be the Messiah of human civilization. ”

"I suddenly felt a lot of pressure on my shoulders." Li Puchang exhaled: "I really didn't expect that I would become a John Connor-like character." ”

"No, you're so much more important than John Connor from 'The Terminator,' who was essentially just a spiritual leader. You have a real and valuable resource. Di Tianxia, who was dressed as a cowboy, deliberately squeezed his eyes at Li Pu, "But one thing you said is right, I will protect you, girl." ”

The last sentence imitated the tone of the actor in the "Terminator" movie, and Li Pu couldn't help but get angry.

"Anyway, before I have enough confidence to compete with Ha Zhen and others, I can't reveal my identity." Li Pu was lying bored in the co-pilot's position, Ha Zhen - Black Evil is a space pirate with overwhelming combat power for earthlings, and recruited strong people including former lv6 such as Husim as subordinates, and as the strongest messenger directly under the star demon, he also has the authority to override the mutant clan to a certain extent, and even the ascending species.

The Parasitic Demon generally does not specifically target the small species in the biosphere, and in a sense, the Hazhen Party already has the largest power on this planet.

"Knock knock!" Several loud bangs suddenly exploded. As the off-road vehicle drove by the side of the road, it was not unexpectedly ambushed by a mutated cedar tree. The mutant fir tree stabbed heavily on the roof of this Mercedes-Benz G-series luxury off-road vehicle, and several obvious dents appeared.

For this surprise, Li Pu only raised his eyelids slightly. And Chen Tianxin hugged his daughter, who was slightly startled, and said unhappily: "Can't you drive well?" ”

"We need to find a convoy of refugees to blend into, and it would be too conspicuous if it looked undamaged." Di Tianxia stepped on the accelerator with a smile, and soon drove out of the desolate neighborhood and drove towards the national highway.

Two human immortals who have sublimated their physical bodies to the realm of "Primordial Adam", a strange stalker, even if Chenxian with excellent psionic potential is not good at fighting, this journey itself is really not much pressure to speak of. It wasn't until I drove on the road for nearly two hours that I met the first convoy of survivors.

In the evening, the convoy of survivors lit a bonfire in a wide area, and in addition to women, children, and the elderly, several men in charge of the guard were armed with weapons such as double-barreled/shotguns, jungle/mountain knives, etc. As the lonely off-road vehicle got closer and closer, they became vigilant.

But they can still bring the old and weak and children, which shows that civilization has not completely faded after all. One of them, a white man with a white beard, was holding a double-barreled/shotgun and shouted, "Hey, buddy, you're not trying to cause trouble, are you?" We've got thirty or so of us here, and half of them are young men! ”

This kind of warning with obvious confidence made Li Pu shake his head speechlessly. However, he and Di Tianxia got off the bus as originally planned. Rather than being a conspicuous lone ranger, they need to blend in with the crowd.

Seeing that the first to get out of the car was a black-haired girl wearing a beret, the bearded uncle softened a little, but saw that the other person began to become nervous again—Di Tianxia did not hide the two Magnum pistols he hung from his waist.

"Hi friend, my name is McCree, and we're just out of town." Di Tianxia said the disguised identity he had prepared in advance, "This is my adopted daughter Plathea, and there are two girls in the car, who are her high school classmates. ”

"McCree, I'm Wilson, are you a county sheriff?" Uncle Bearded noticed that the weapons in Di Tianxia's hands were not available to ordinary people in the UK.

"County police? No, no, I was previously a member of the EU Special Response Force. Di Tianxia replied.

"Special Response Force?" Uncle Bearded obviously didn't know about this kind of secret department, but his vigilance against Di Tianxia slowed down a lot, "Why did you stop?" Our convoy did not block the way. ”

"I know that the world is not peaceful. After all, we only have one man here, three girls. Why don't we take care of each other? Di Tianxia proposed.

Uncle Bearded turned around with some hesitation, and discussed with everyone in a low voice before continuing: "Do you have any extra guns?" ”

"Plesia, give him yours." Di Tianxia smiled and glanced at Li Pu.

Li Pu took out an automatic pistol inserted in his waist, and wanted to throw it directly, but the distance was so far, his current disguised identity was a girl, and it was too exaggerated for a heavy piece of iron to be thrown into the hands of a person more than ten meters away, he walked forward for a distance, handed it to a white young man who nodded to her friendly, and came up to take the pistol.

The white youth took the gun and stepped back, caressing the weapon visibly excitedly. Originally, he only had a mountain sword made of cold steel as a protective weapon, which was completely incomparable to a real firearm. This post-apocalyptic world full of mutated creatures, with a gun in hand, is much more secure. Food and weapons were the hardest currencies of the post-rain era.

"Wilson, the bullets are full." The young man couldn't put it down, and approached Uncle Luo Hu, saying that there was no problem.

"Okay, McRae. You can join, but you'll need to be in charge of guarding the convoy on a rotating basis. Let's start with that, food and water need to be taken care of by yourself. Wilson removed the muzzle of the shotgun.

"No problem." Di Tianxia smiled. After the four of them were equipped with the Fighting God armament, they now all had the full protection of the Life Blueprint System, if they didn't stand in front of the Sending Star Demon and directly withstand the excessive erosion of the majestic spiritual energy, even if they directly devoured the flesh and blood of mutated creatures, there would be no danger of infection.

Joining this team is the first step in fully integrating a disguised identity into this new era. They quickly integrated into the apparently improvised fleet. Leading the way was none other than Wilson, a high school teacher. He was joined by neighbors in the same apartment. Originally, they hoped that the government and the military would come to the rescue, and the situation would gradually improve, but after most of the stored water was consumed, the situation became worse and worse, and the government and military could not see anyone. They decided to abandon their homeland and take the rest of their supplies with them to the capital, London.

"I heard that London is now home to most of the British troops, and is the only safe place in all of Britain." Wilson sat at the fire, his hands warmed.
