Chen Xianfeng staggered out of the room. At first, he was a little unstable, but soon his movements became smoother. He walked out of the courtyard, took a few more steps, and then started running. He ran faster and faster, his face becoming more and more ferocious. Finally, he let out a loud and strange roar.
Listening to the roar that sounded like a beast coming from afar, the hall gradually quieted down. Everyone had mixed feelings.
"He's too dangerous …" Cao Lin said hesitantly. She lowered her head, not daring to look at the others.
Although she did not say it explicitly, it was obvious what she meant. As a normal person, no one would want to have a ticking time bomb next to them. From his reaction just now, it was obvious that his emotions were very unstable. If Luo Yuan had not been there, he would have lost control.
"Yes, his eyes just now looked like a beast's," Zhao Yali said in fear.
"But he's still a companion!" Huang Jiahui said softly after hesitating for a while. She knew very well that Zhao Yali was right. Chen Xianfeng had become very dangerous now. Perhaps a moment of soft-heartedness would cause irreversible consequences, but she still could not bear to give up just like that.
"He's mutated. He's no longer the Chen Xianfeng of the past. I heard from Brother Luo that it might get worse in the future. Leaving him in the team is an unstable factor. Plus, he might live a better life if he leaves," Cao Lin said, biting her lips.
Luo Yuan was also having a hard time choosing. The increase in strength from the mutation was too shocking. In a short time, Chen Xianfeng had gone from a normal person to a dark blue level. Moreover, he had been invaded by the Alpha Tortoise's genes, so he should not have reached his limit yet. Thinking about the power of the Alpha Tortoise, one could see his potential.
If he could successfully control the violent emotions in his body, he would be a great help in the future.
To be honest, Luo Yuan was not optimistic.
Even without the influence of the Alpha Tortoise's genes on rationality, an ordinary person suddenly gaining such great strength would be a huge challenge to his character. The desire to destroy caused by the strength would erode his rationality and make him do whatever he wanted. Moreover, he had the gene of a green level mutated beast in his body.
However, Chen Xianfeng had always worked hard without complaint. No matter how tiring or dirty the work was, he never complained. It was really disappointing for him to give up just like that. Luo Yuan thought for a while and said, "Let's watch for a few days first.
"Let's observe him for a few days first. I'll keep an eye on him day and night. If he loses control of his emotions, let him leave."
If he really lost control, then he couldn't be blamed.
… …
Due to the suddenness of the incident, the original plan for today's trip was delayed.
However, it was not as if they had nothing to do. A large amount of egg liquid was smoked by a few women in batches into cubes the size of butter, which were then wrapped tightly with clean fish skin. This food was undoubtedly a valuable strategic resource. Even a small food cube contained enough calories to sustain everyone except Luo Yuan and Chen Xianfeng for a day. If it was stored well, this pile of food could last them for more than half a year.
As for the colloid on the surface of the eggshell, Luo Yuan synthesized it into the bulletproof vest. As there was enough of it, Luo Yuan synthesized a total of five pieces of bulletproof vest. Apart from one of them, which was dark blue level, the other four were green level.
After the synthesis, the bulletproof vest was translucent like a crystal with a fiber texture on its surface. After the synthesis, its weight was much lighter. Even the iron inside was fused with the colloid to form a new lightweight material.
The whole bulletproof vest was moderate in softness. It was neither too hard nor too soft. As long as one exerted a little force, they could feel a strong rebound force.
Moreover, compared to the previous Snake Scale Bulletproof Suit, its powerful attributes were like the difference between clouds and mud, incomparable.
"Energy absorption bulletproof vest;"
"Materials: Deinosuchus delivery fluid, nylon fiber, metal sheet;"
"Rarity: Green level;"
"Weight: 1kg;"
"Defense: 35-39;"
"Additional effect 1: Absorbs attack (physical energy)"
"Additional effect 2: Rebound (any attack will be reflected)"
"Remarks: This is undoubtedly a strong bulletproof vest. Although the additional effect is simple, all of its abilities are reflected in its defense. It can withstand any attack, be it bullets or even normal artillery shells. Its only weakness is that when it absorbs a certain amount of attack, it will start to heat up. Of course, compared to its strong defense, this weakness is not worth mentioning."
In order to test the effects of the bulletproof vest, Luo Yuan even walked to an open area and asked Huang Jiahui to shoot him with dark blue level bullets. The result of the experiment was that all the bullets bounced off. Other than a slight vibration, he did not feel any pain at all.
After wiping off the few black spots on the bulletproof vest, the surface became very smooth. There were no marks left, and the temperature did not rise much. It seemed that such an attack was not enough to make it heat up.
Wang Shishi's sharp awl had also been upgraded with the eggshell. Its sharpness had surpassed that of a Zhanmadao. The rest of the eggshell had been synthesized into large-caliber sniper bullets and normal handgun bullets. It was hard to say if the bullets hit a green level creature, but if it was a light green level mutated creature or below, it would be pierced.
After the synthesis, the whole team's attack power had undergone a qualitative change. As they consumed large amounts of green level food, their physical fitness would also improve rapidly.
Chen Xianfeng did not return for the whole morning, nor did he return in the afternoon. Everyone was secretly relieved, thinking that he had left quietly. However, when it was almost dark and everyone was about to go to bed, he suddenly came back, limping.
He seemed to have just fought with a creature. His body was covered in blood and he looked very embarrassed. There were a few deep scratches on his chest, and the most serious ones were on his thighs and arms. The flesh on them had been torn off, and his white bones could be vaguely seen.
However, after venting his anger, his eyes had calmed down a lot. There was no longer that suppressed violence in the depths of his heart.
He did not enter the hall directly. He stopped at the door because Luo Yuan was standing there, looking at him.
After a while, Chen Xianfeng started to feel uneasy under Luo Yuan's gaze. He started to step back.
"I believe you already understand your situation. You can lose control at any time, so staying with us is too dangerous," Luo Yuan suddenly said. Luo Yuan suddenly said, "Before you completely control yourself, you have to stay at least 20 meters away from everyone."
A fierce light flashed in Chen Xianfeng's eyes. He said in a muffled voice, "From now on … I … will … sleep … outside!"
Luo Yuan noticed the change in his expression. He sighed. Compared to the old Chen Xianfeng, his temperament had changed drastically. He had become easily angered, tyrannical and arrogant. He was no longer the dull person he used to be. Luo Yuan looked at him deeply and warned, "It's good that you know. Also, don't do anything that will cause a misunderstanding. Otherwise, no one can save you."
"I … understand …" he said in a muffled voice. He seemed to feel Luo Yuan's gaze, and this time he lowered his head slightly, hiding his expression under a shadow.
…
Nothing happened that night.
When Luo Yuan opened the door the next morning, Chen Xianfeng, who had been squatting in the corner of the courtyard, stood up vigilantly. He was holding a bone stick that was almost two meters long. It was still stained with blood and flesh. It looked very fresh.
It was the thigh bone of a mutated beast. One end of it was exceptionally thick, like a huge hammer. He had not had the bone stick during the day. Obviously, he had gone out again last night.
There was still blood at the corner of his mouth, and there were more wounds on his body than during the day. However, the old wounds had mostly healed. Even the torn flesh on his arm and thigh had formed scabs. The wounds had almost shrunk by half. It would probably take a few days for them to completely heal.
Amazing self-healing ability.
When he saw Luo Yuan, he looked away unnaturally, holding the bone stick tightly in his hand. He was obviously nervous.
Luo Yuan stared at him for a while and then looked away.
…
Soon, everyone got up and began to pack their luggage.
Besides food, they had also brought a lot of weapons and ammunition, including three heavy sniper rifles. Besides that, everyone had also brought a pistol and a box of synthetic bullets. If Luo Yuan had not objected, they would have brought the cannon with them.
Although the power of the machine cannon was powerful, the logistics requirements were extremely harsh. Moreover, they were not professional operators. Every shot consumed an astonishing amount of bullets. If they did not bring enough bullets, it would be useless. In terms of power, the synthesized bullets were already more than enough to surpass the machine cannon, so it was better not to bring them.
Luo Yuan checked his luggage and wrapped the food cubes in the fish skin carefully again. He then went outside to find some leaves that emitted a pungent smell. He crushed them and applied them on the cubes. He was only relieved when he could no longer smell the unique aroma coming from the cubes.
The giant lizard was very sensitive to the smell of such high-energy food. He could not guarantee that it would not lose its temper again and cause its loyalty to drop again.
Next, Luo Yuan carefully tied all kinds of luggage onto the back of the giant lizard. It stirred a little and then calmed down. Its crystal clear eyes returned to their usual docile state. He curiously opened the properties panel. He seemed to have overestimated the degree of revenge the giant lizard could bear. After a night, the loyalty of the giant lizard had greatly recovered. Although it had not reached its peak of 80 points, it had recovered to 78 points.
This phenomenon felt like a child whose candy was snatched away by its parents. Although it would cry and throw a tantrum at the time, it would completely forget the previous unhappiness after a period of time. The Giant Lizard's intelligence seemed to be similar to that of a one or two-year-old child.
However, Luo Yuan thought about it for a while and decided not to pay attention to it anymore. After everyone climbed onto the giant lizard's back, the giant lizard strode forward under Luo Yuan's command. Behind it, a giant trotted and followed it from a distance.
An hour later, a city hidden in the forest appeared in front of everyone.
