Chapter 164
Lao Huang came alive miraculously, but his condition was quite bad. Not only was most of his flesh and blood bitten away, but even the internal organs inside were somewhat broken, and bones could be seen in many places, just like a skinned zombie dog. If it weren't for the life-saving bricks made of turtle eggs, there would be no chance of survival. But even so, it would be impossible for it to stand up in a short period of time.
The giant lizard was slightly better than Lao Huang, but it was not much better. Due to the injuries of the two beasts, it was no longer possible to travel far, so Luo Yuan and his men had to decide to rest in Jiaping City for a while.
Everyone quickly found a subway station. While the subway is the city's bus artery, it also has the function of an air raid shelter during wartime, so it is much stronger than that of ordinary buildings. Even if the city's corrosion is severe, it is still basically well preserved.
As soon as I walked to the door, a strong stench that had not been dissipated for a long time hit me, making people do evil vaguely. There were corpses everywhere. It was obviously inhabited by survivors, but now there are only white bones left on the ground.
Because I have to stay for a while, even those who don’t care about the living environment cannot tolerate staying with the stinky corpses every day. So after checking for possible hazards, the first thing that everyone did when they entered the subway station was to clean out the corpses.
Everyone moved very quickly. After half an hour, all the corpses on the subway were thrown out. Although the corpse smell here was still very heavy due to the lack of ventilation, the nose was nothing to be desired after a long time. In fact, there was nothing to be desired to find such a solid and safe residence in the end of the world.
Zhao Yali suppressed her fear and worked hard to finish all this. She almost staggered to find a corner, sat down softly, and her whole body trembled.
Luo Yuan has been paying attention to Zhao Yali and sighed when he saw this.
"Sister Yali, are you okay?" Luo Yuan walked over and said.
"It's okay." Zhao Yali lowered her head and took a deep breath, and her body trembling stopped.
Luo Yuan was silent, after a while: "I will get used to it from now on, and I will get used to it if I see it too much."
Zhao Yali couldn't help it anymore and began to sob in a low voice, saying, "But... I... I'm afraid. I thought I was going to die today, even Lao Huang... is almost dead... I have been very timid since I was a child, and I was even afraid of seeing dead people, but just now I threw the skull with my own hands because I was afraid that others would look at me with strange eyes."
Zhao Yali's weak body trembled violently and whispered incoherently: "I know you can't blame you, but I still hate you. Why do you want to take me out? I'm just an ordinary woman, not as strong as Wang Xiaguang and Huang Jiahui, and I can't compare with Wang Shishi. I just want to live a stable day, not like this, when death will come at any time."
Luo Yuan sighed. This road was too far away and too dangerous. Even he had survived several crises, not to mention that ordinary people like Zhao Yali, their lives were as fragile as glass and could be smashed at any time.
But Luo Yuan also knew that stopping was only temporary safety. In this land of fallen, the more time went by, the stronger the power of the mutant beasts became. Without the collective power of human beings, let alone confronting it, even survival would be difficult. Only in the west can one be truly safe.
But for Zhao Yali, this is not a reason, because it is too illusory and too far away, and maybe he fell down before he was halfway.
He was silent for a while and said self-deprecatingly: "Maybe I am too selfish and shouldn't have pulled you on a road that will definitely be dead. This time we will stay here for a while. At that time, if you really don't want to leave, I'll send you back to your original place. I think Lao Huang is here, and they shouldn't do anything to you.
Zhao Yali stopped sobbing, and she looked at Luo Yuan in shock. Only then did she realize that his face was no longer as beautiful as before, but had become weathered and powerful without anger. His eyes were not as friendly as before, but became deep and distant as before, and seemed a little cold. At this moment, she suddenly felt a little strange. He seemed no longer the Luo Yuan who had known before, who was calling her sister Yali.
I have been safe in the next few days. Not to mention the beast tide, even scattered mutant beasts can rarely be seen.
In order to ensure the safety of the surroundings, Luo Yuan went out several times during this period and visited almost half of the city. Apart from discovering a few sporadic mutant beasts, he never found a puppet worm again. Obviously, the cruel battle before made the puppet worm pay a heavy price, and he no longer dared to get close to Luo Yuan, a creature that could almost be called a natural enemy, and even had escaped from the city far away.
Apart from some small mutant insects and the scattered mutant beasts in the distance, there were no other creatures in the entire city, and they almost completely turned into empty cities. It can be imagined that before, the puppet insects had completely ruled the city.
This situation made Luo Yuan feel a little scared when he remembered it. If it weren't for the crisis, the sword skills evolved into sword skills, and the momentum had changed qualitatively. It was impossible to escape from this city without paying a heavy price. At least the giant lizard and Lao Huang would definitely not be able to save it. Besides, except for Luo Yuan, the rest of the people were also slim.
This made Luo Yuan pay more attention to the role of momentum. During the experiments these days, Luo Yuan found that momentum seemed to have the ability to suppress the level. Although it was not easy to test the giant lizard and Lao Huang who were still in the state of recuperation. The specific situation is still unclear, but at least the blue level can be completely suppressed.
This suppression is an overwhelming effect.
Luo Yuan found that once the aura was emitted, the blue-level mutant beast completely lost its ability to attack. Specifically, it was kneeling on the ground with all limbs, looking scared, and trembling. Even if it was a little stronger or a distance, it immediately turned around and ran away, completely losing its fighting spirit, as if it had seen something terrifying.
As for the weaker light blue level, fainting or even sudden death will occur.
The white level with even greater strength will die without exception. Basically, once the momentum is emitted, the surrounding area will completely turn into a place of death.
This discovery surprised Luo Yuan and was both happy. What was happy was that this momentum was too powerful. There was no need to worry about the attacks of weak beast tides in the future. It was like a tiger when fighting powerful creatures. It could be imagined that a battle that was originally evenly matched, suddenly Luo Yuan was thriving without any suppression. As long as the opponent was slightly affected, that battle would be almost without suspense. What was shocking was that fortunately, it was not tested in the subway station, otherwise a tragedy would happen.
However, in the experiment, he also found that while the qualitative change of momentum was not without cost, its consumption of will and perception increased greatly. Compared with the past, the duration was greatly shortened, and it felt like the water flowing on the faucet, passing rapidly. In just a short time, the mind would feel tired, even dizzy, and even headaches.
Of course, compared with enhanced strength, these are just negligible small problems. After all, unless a beast tide occurs, the momentum does not need to be continuously emitted. As for the momentum emitting in front of everyone, as long as you train a few more times step by step, you should be able to adapt slowly, and maybe they can also enhance their will and perception.
The secondary attributes have always existed in a mysterious state, whether it is intelligence, perception, or will. Luo Yuan cannot understand its mutual connection. Compared with the physical attributes that are intuitively expressed, Luo Yuan can only rely on guessing roughly, because these three attributes vaguely point to the most difficult existence to determine in life - the soul. With the current scientific level, it is impossible to intuitively describe and conclusive evidence to prove the existence of the soul. Everything depends on human hypothesis and guessing.
The sub-attributes of the system intuitively indicate in the form of data that there is a mysterious inner existence in the human body. Coupled with the predictability of various tasks and the ability to enhance attributes. Luo Yuan guessed that the system may be a creature far stronger than human civilization. After all, there is no perfect theory that can perfectly support the existence of the system. The time required to transform the theory into real technology means that humans cannot have such ability within at least fifty to one hundred years.
However, such speculation cannot change anything at all, and it can only be disturbed by others.
