Chapter 50
Zhang Chao pulled the trigger of the reverse-turning crossbow, "Duo!" with a slight sound, a mutant beast similar to a badger in front was penetrated by a steel arrow and fell to the ground without saying a word. Several people passed the corpse and continued to move forward, leaving it to lie on the side of the road.
"First-level mutant creatures are not valuable. A pound of meat can only be sold for two pounds of food coupons. If you can't find a second-level mutant beast, sometimes you can use more bullets on a round trip, and you will not be able to pay for the money." Qian Dakui knew that Luo Yuan was the first to come here, so in order to make up for the previous cracks, he explained in a low voice.
"The second-level mutant beast is valuable. Each pound of meat is as high as 30 kilograms of grain coupons. This is the recycling price. It is even higher in the black market. People are rushing to buy 100 kilograms of grain coupons. However, except for each person who can bring three kilograms of meat, the rest will be forced to be recycled by the base."
"Level mutant creature?" Luo Yuan said in confusion.
"These are all statements from the base. For example, the mutant rats killed in Donghu used to be first-level mutant creatures, and the rat king is second-level. The base has special detection methods!" Qian Dakui explained.
Compared with the divisions on the system, it seems that white is level one, while level two should be light blue, Luo Yuan nodded.
Most light blue-level creatures are huge in size. Even if the small one is like this, they can have more than 100 kilograms of meat, hundreds of kilograms of kilograms of meat, or even tons. As long as you are lucky enough to hunt a second-level mutant creature, the cost of weapon rental and ammunition loss will not be worth mentioning, and you can still make a profit. As expected, the risk and profit are in contrast, and the price of blue-level creatures may be even higher.
"Wait, don't move everyone!" Zhang Chao shouted in a hurry when he was walking at the end.
Luo Yuan immediately stopped and looked around with a warning, but found no movement. He was a little confused.
At this time, Zhang Chao pulled out the military sect, walked over quickly, and picked a piece of green leaf in front of Luo Yuan. As soon as the green leaf landed on the ground, it suddenly moved like life. It crawled along the ground and twisted towards the darkness.
Only then did Luo Yuan see clearly that this was not a leaf, but a green soft insect. Its skin color and shape were very similar to the surrounding leaves. It was difficult to distinguish if you didn’t look closely.
"The grass is a mutated leech!" Yang Dawei looked carefully, screamed in surprise, rushed over with a quick step, pulled out the dog-legged knife and cut the green soft insect into two pieces, and a dark red blood flowed out.
After Yang Dawei killed the mutant leech, he did not breathe a sigh of relief. Instead, he said to Qian Dakui with a nervous look on his face: "Here you help me see if there is something behind me?"
Qian Dakui also looked solemn and lifted up Zhang Dawei's clothes: "No, everyone check it!"
As he said that, he also began to check his trouser legs.
Although Luo Yuan was a little confused, he felt something was wrong when he saw these people's behavior. He quickly checked his body with his perception, but did not find such a thing.
Several people checked each other.
"No!" Zhang Chao tied his trouser legs tightly again and said with a sigh of relief.
"I don't have it either!" Qian Dakui said, then looked at Luo Yuan: "Boss Luo, why don't you check it too?"
Luo Yuan shook his head and said, "No, I can sense that there is nothing on my body."
When Qian Dakui thought that he could easily discover the existence of the invisible person before, he didn't ask any more questions, but he felt that the other party was more and more unfathomable.
"Fortunately I discovered it early?" Yang Dawei looked glad: "I didn't expect that this kind of mutant leech appeared here. If it penetrates into the body, it will be over."
Luo Yuan's heart tightened and asked hurriedly: "Do you think it can penetrate into the body?"
Yang Dawei nodded, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes: "As long as it is stuck on it, it will penetrate into your body in less than a few minutes. The most terrible thing is that this process is not painful or itchy and cannot be detected at all. After the mutant leech sucks all the blood, it will ovulate in large quantities.
Within half a day, you will be as thin as a mummy and die of ischemia. At that time, mutant leeches will emerge from various parts of your body in large numbers... The death is extremely miserable." Finally, his voice was a little low: "A friend of ours died like this... We gave up that area later, but we didn't expect it to appear here."
Luo Yuan's scalp was numb and his whole body was covered in goose bumps. Before the incident, the leeches that only sucked some blood before the incident had evolved to such a terrifying level.
"Do we still want to go there?" Zhang Chao asked.
Yang Dawei's face was a little nervous.
Qian Dakui glanced at Luo Yuan, saw that Luo Yuan did not object, thought for a while, and said heavily: "Since there are already here, I'm afraid there are also other places. Be careful, it should be fine, let's go!"
Although Luo Yuan killed the invisible person, he knew that the people of Hedong City would definitely settle the accounts on their heads. Once they discovered that the invisible person was dead, they would probably die in the future. Today is undoubtedly the best opportunity to catch them all in one place.
Zhang Chao nodded and silently picked up the sniper rifle to follow.
Yang Dawei hesitated for a moment, sighed, and followed.
Several people looked alert and carefully checked each branch that was crossing. Several mutant leeches were found in just a few hundred meters away. Among them, a shriveled animal corpse was found not far from the road, which made everyone even more frightened.
………………………………
"Shh!" Qian Dakui pushed away the branches and raised his index finger to his mouth and made a quiet gesture.
Several people sat in an open space with heavy expressions, one of them lay weakly on the ground, with no blood on their faces on their faces.
Luo Yuan passed through the gaps between the branches and the four people were the remaining Hedong City people. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the man lying on the ground seemed much thinner, and his original round face had all been cut off.
"That man was parasitized by the mutated leeches and couldn't survive. Now there are three left." Yang Dawei said in a low voice with some pleasure, and took out a grenade from his backpack and put it into the launcher.
"Wait, there are too many branches in front of you, I'm afraid it will block the grenade, get closer!" Qian Dakui stopped.
Yang Dawei nodded, picked up the rifle, and slowly moved forward in front of him with his waist.
The few people walked for more than ten meters and stopped again.
At this time, one of the people opposite seemed to notice something and looked here alertly. The next moment, his face changed drastically and he shouted loudly: "Run! It's those Donghu..."
"Bang!"
Before he could speak halfway, Zhang Chao's sniper rifle fired, and his body was instantly beaten into two pieces.
Immediately, another grenade exploded violently not far ahead.
"The grass, it's wrong again." Yang Dawei shouted in annoyance. Without a lot of practice and professional training, it is difficult for ordinary people to master this heavy weapon carried by individuals.
Qian Daqina also fired an old light machine gun.
After a brief panic, the two people left on the opposite side quickly found a hidden location and began to fight back sporadically.
The bullets kept flying by, and they were fiery for a moment.
Both sides were amateur players, and there was no accurate point when the bullets came over. Luo Yuan felt that the marksmanship of these people might not be much better than that of him. Except for the fact that Zhang Chao killed one of them with a sniper rifle at the beginning, both sides fought back and forth for more than ten minutes, and no one was injured or killed.
"Cao Nima, you dare to attack. You people from Donghu City, I will kill you to death today." The opponent beat and scolded.
"Fuck, you're still talking big," Yang Dawei cursed.
The next moment, a shell landed not far ahead, and a ball of fireballs several meters exploded.
"Those people from Hedong City rented mortars. Dawei, don't save grenades, hurry up and fight back." Seeing that the other party also had heavy firepower, Qian Dakui almost jumped up and shouted loudly.
Luo Yuan lay on the ground, his heart became more and more irritable, and his mind buzzed.
The human naked eye has a temporary buffer time for visual protection, mainly in order to protect itself during biological evolution and avoid excessive use of the brain. Generally, the limit of image transmission speed that can be distinguished is 24 frames/second. In other words, if you do an action within seconds, the naked eye will not find it. The speed of the bullet is 700 to 800 meters per second, and within 1/24 seconds, it can fly 30 to 40 meters, which cannot be seen by the naked eye at all. Only a higher frame rate can distinguish the trajectory of the bullet.
But this is not a problem for perception at all. Although it is similar to vision, it is not an organ of the body. It does not delay the nerve reflex arc. It itself is an extension of consciousness. As long as it is perceived, it is already "seeing" in consciousness, and everything is running synchronously.
No matter how fast the bullet is, it will leave a high-speed blurred influence in consciousness. What's worse is that perception itself is extremely agile for moving things.
He found that whenever the bullet flew past the area he perceived, his consciousness would be unconsciously pulled to the fuzzy dot.
Once or twice, it's OK. But it's been almost ten minutes since the shooting. There are not a hundred bullets flying through this area, and there are dozens of them. The attention is constantly being sensed and forced to move. Sometimes when the number is too large, the attention will be forcibly divided into several parts, and he will be driven crazy.
At this time, his nostrils were itchy. He touched them and felt something was wrong. When he looked down, he couldn't help but startled, his hands were covered with blood.
Just as he was thinking about whether to step back a little, he suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart and his scalp exploded suddenly. Then, his attention became extremely concentrated than ever before. He felt a vague little dot, and he was shooting from his head at high speed.
In an instant, he didn't even have time to think, and his head subconsciously turned toward the side. Almost at the same time, a burning air flow passed by his ears, emitting a faint smell of gunpowder!
Luo Yuan's face was pale, and he breathed heavily, and he felt his heart beating violently.
