When Wang Shishi arrived and saw Luo Yuan's miserable condition, her tears started to flow.
Luo Yuan looked extremely miserable. His eyes were looking at the sky, and his chest was heaving up and down. There was a thin layer of scab on his exposed skin, and his body was steaming. Even from afar, one could feel the heat coming from his body. The steam was blood red, and there was a strong smell of blood in the air.
Apparently, it was because the blood was flowing at a high speed during the strenuous exercise, causing the capillaries to burst.
When he saw Wang Shishi, Luo Yuan forced a smile and spat out a mouthful of blood. He said weakly, "I … I'm fine!"
"Help me up!"
How could he be fine? It must be because he doesn't want me to worry. Wang Shishi's tears flowed even more happily. She hurriedly wiped her face and sat down. She lifted his head with trembling hands and gently placed it on her lap.
Of course, he was fine. It was just that his strength had exceeded his limit, and he was a little exhausted. The reason he was spitting out blood was probably because his internal organs were damaged. Hmm, his whole body was in pain, and some of his muscles were torn. However, such injuries were nothing to him. Even if he did not receive treatment, he would recover in five to six days. It would be faster if he used his Will.
After waiting for more than a minute, his strength started to recover. He gently freed himself from Wang Shishi's embrace. He was not used to being held by a little girl, especially her soft breasts. As Wang Shishi's body trembled, her breasts rubbed against his cheeks. He could smell the alluring scent of her breasts. Even though he was calm, he still blushed.
He struggled to sit up. His throat felt itchy, and he spat out a mouthful of blood that had accumulated in his lungs. He felt much better, but his lungs felt like they were on fire. It was as if he had poured a bottle of sulfuric acid into his lungs.
"Brother Luo, lie down!" Wang Shishi saw the blood flowing out of her mouth, and she was so anxious that she forgot to cry. She pushed his chest hard, trying to make him lie down again.
Luo Yuan was amused by Wang Shishi's clumsy and reckless actions. After all, she was just a 14 or 15-year-old girl who did not know how to take care of people. If she was seriously injured, she would be tortured to death even if she did not die. However, he could not help but feel a sense of warmth when he thought about how she had rushed here regardless of the danger. "Alright, I'm really not injured. I'm just a little tired. Let's get out of here, help me."
This was not a safe place. Not far away, the dying giant snake was still crazily venting its anger. Wherever it passed, countless trees would be snapped in half. The remaining buildings in the surroundings were also destroyed by the giant snake's madness. They were like fragile building blocks, causing smoke and dust to fly everywhere.
Even if they were lucky enough not to be affected by the giant snake, this place was not absolutely safe. From time to time, several tons of boulders would fly over their heads, whistling through the air like cannonballs. If they hit a person, they would probably be turned into a pile of meat paste. Fortunately, the power of the rocks was not strong, and Luo Yuan's physical defense was not bad. Other than a few scratches, he was not seriously injured.
Fortunately, the rocks were not strong, and Luo Yuan's physical defense was not bad. Other than some scratches, he was not seriously injured. Otherwise, Luo Yuan would not have been able to rest in peace.
Wang Shishi could still hear him. She wiped away her tears and supported Luo Yuan, releasing her telekinesis to protect him.
Luo Yuan also stood up, gritting his teeth. He frowned. He had used too much strength this time, and his muscles felt like they were torn. He was in pain, and his limbs were so weak that he felt like he was paralyzed.
This injury was more serious than he had imagined. He did not know if he could recover quickly with the help of his Will, but it was obviously not the time to treat his injuries.
He smiled bitterly, gritted his teeth, and walked forward slowly.
After a few steps, Luo Yuan looked in front of him in surprise. There were people running towards him. It was Commander Xia and his soldiers. They were carrying a stretcher, wearing bulletproof vests, and were running towards him quickly.
Some of them fell to the ground after being hit by the rocks, but they quickly stood up and continued running.
Suddenly, one of the soldiers was hit by a rock the size of a human head while he was running. His head tilted, and he fell to the ground, dying silently.
But no one stopped, and everyone was running towards him quickly.
"Let's carry him!" Commander Xia and three soldiers ran to the front and said to Wang Shishi, panting. They were all the soldiers there, except for the engineers.
He looked tired, and his eyes were bloodshot. His body was bleeding, and he was obviously injured.
Luo Yuan was surprised and touched. In fact, even if they did not come to help and just watched from afar, he would not have thought much of it. After all, he had risked his life to kill the giant snake, not to save them, but to save himself. If he could escape, he would not have hesitated.
Sometimes, he would do what he could to save some survivors or provide some help to strangers, but he would never sacrifice his life to help others. However, that did not stop Luo Yuan from respecting such people.
"You guys …" Luo Yuan took a deep breath, as if he wanted to say something, but he did not know what to say. Any words would seem to be useless at this moment.
"You saved our lives. Why should we take this risk?" One of the soldiers said with a grin on his face.
"Let's get out of here first!" Commander Xia urged.
Luo Yuan felt a little guilty, but he nodded and said to Wang Shishi, "Shishi, watch out for flying rocks!"
Her telekinesis was the best for dealing with flying rocks. As long as the kinetic energy was not too strong, she could usually handle it.
Wang Shishi nodded her head vigorously. Soon, a few soldiers carried Luo Yuan onto a stretcher and ran towards a safe place.
… …..
Lying on the stretcher, Luo Yuan seized the time to heal himself. This was not a safe military base, and any accidents could happen. More strength meant more self-protection.
However, when he was condensing his will, he was surprised to find that it felt especially smooth this time. Almost as soon as he thought about it, his will had already condensed. It was as natural as eating and drinking. Moreover, his thoughts were pure. His mind was calm and didn't have any distracting thoughts.
What was going on?
But it was a good thing. He did not have time to think about it. He quickly immersed his Will into his body and started to heal himself.
Luo Yuan realized that he had been too optimistic. He had thought that it was just some simple internal injuries and muscle tears, but it was actually more serious than he had imagined. Most of his muscles had been torn, his capillaries had burst, his internal organs had been damaged, and even his bones had been cracked. His internal bleeding was very serious.
If he was an ordinary person, he would have died long ago. Even if his Will recovered, it would still be difficult. It was not something that could be healed in a day or two. Moreover, his Will had been severely depleted. He only had one-third of it left. Especially the last time, he felt like his Will was burning. In just two seconds, his Will was almost depleted.
Usually, such a small amount of Will could only be treated hastily. He would have to wait until his Will was fully recovered.
However, when he started to heal himself, he felt that something was wrong.
It was fast. It was too fast.
Almost as soon as he used his Will, the broken muscles began to heal rapidly, and the consumption was much lower than usual.
Although he was secretly surprised, he still calmed down and continued the treatment without any distractions.
The muscles were reconnected, the capillaries were cleared, the damaged internal organs were repaired, and even the small cracks in the bones were quickly healed under the effect of his Will. All of this took only a minute.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes. He could no longer hide the surprise in his eyes. He felt that there must be some changes in his Will. He opened the properties panel and found that there was a missing message in the system.
"Under the pressure of death, your Will potential has exploded. Will + 1!"
Luo Yuan was happy, but he was soon attracted by the last few words of the message.
"Will potential has exploded!"
He thought to himself.
This battle was undoubtedly the most dangerous one he had ever fought. It was also the one where the difference in strength was the biggest.
Although he had already killed a few light green level mutated beasts, most of them were sea beasts that did not display their full strength on land. In fact, he had to be careful when dealing with any land mutated beasts. If he was not careful, he would fail miserably in an easy task.
He knew very well that his strength was around the light green level.
If a green level mutated beast wanted to kill Luo Yuan, it would be as easy as killing a dark blue level mutated beast.
In the past, Luo Yuan could rely on his Agility to bully other mutated beasts. However, if he wanted to deal with this giant snake, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock. He could not even see its movements clearly, let alone dodge it. Whether it was Strength, Agility, or Stamina, the snake could crush him.
Even if the giant snake was distracted by the cannonball, there was only a 20 to 30 percent chance that he could kill it. At that time, the pressure in his heart could be imagined. It was simply a narrow escape from death, a desperate situation in which he sought survival.
When he rushed out, he seemed to have entered a strange state. There was nothing but a target in his eyes. His whole body felt like it was burning and his blood was boiling.
He seemed to have broken through some kind of shackles. Everything around him seemed to have quieted down. The scenery on both sides quickly became blurry, and even the air became sticky. Every step forward required a lot of strength. The air flow on his clothes seemed to have disappeared, and his body even felt like it was floating.
Now that he thought about it, it was simply unbelievable. In terms of pure speed and reflexes, not to mention 14 points of agility, even if it was 15 points or 16 points, it would still be impossible.
"This must have something to do with Will!" he thought to himself. "Will is mysterious and unpredictable. It is the most mysterious of all attributes. Under the threat of death, there must have been an extremely strong desire to make myself faster and stronger. This desire was so strong that it directly broke through the limit and affected the whole body, allowing the full strength of the body to exert an amazing effect."
Luo Yuan suddenly felt confused. "But why didn't this happen before?"
He knew that even before the apocalypse, this kind of phenomenon was not rare. Many people would burst out with extraordinary strength in a crisis. For example, a woman's child was crushed by a car, and in a moment of desperation, the woman lifted the car and saved the child.
The car was very heavy, and the woman could not normally lift it. However, when her child was pinned down, the anxious mother only had one thought in her mind, and that was to save her child. As for how heavy the car was, or whether it could be lifted, these distracting thoughts did not even appear in her mind. Her willpower was instantly highly concentrated, and she unleashed extraordinary strength.
Even an ordinary person could do it, but Luo Yuan, who could concentrate his Will, could not do it. It had only happened today.
There must be a reason. Luo Yuan thought quickly.
If it was something else, Luo Yuan would not have thought about it. However, this was very important to him. His previous state was like a new person. His whole body was full of strength. If he could master this ability, he could even fight a green level creature in the future.
Although his body would almost collapse after using it and he would not be able to fight for a short period of time, it was better than waiting for death.
Suddenly, he was stunned. He seemed to have grasped something and smiled bitterly.
It seemed like the concentration of his Will was not as good as that of an ordinary person.
Although ordinary people could only concentrate their Will for a moment and it disappeared very quickly, the concentration of Will was very pure. It was something that he could never achieve by training. No matter how much he concentrated his Will, there would always be some distracting thoughts in his mind, at least in the subconscious.
Therefore, any Will that conflicted with the subconscious would never be achieved. Luo Yuan had long noticed that his Will could not hurt itself because it conflicted with the body's self-protection subconscious.
The explosion of potential was to break through the body's self-protection mechanism. It was a conflict with the body's subconscious.
"Subconscious!" Luo Yuan sighed. Did he really have to learn how to hypnotize himself?
Although he had not tried it before, he knew very well that if he wanted to be in this state again, it would only happen when he was in danger.
Luo Yuan could only smile bitterly. If that was the case, it would be best if he did not encounter such a state again.
… …
Suddenly, Luo Yuan's body shook. The stretcher was put down gently, but he did not stand up immediately. He was still lying down.
Luo Yuan had been through society and was familiar with the ways of the world. If one stood up as if nothing had happened when the stretcher was put down, it would be very inhumane. A soldier had died in order to carry Luo Yuan back. What would the soldiers think if he stood up as if nothing had happened?
Although the soldiers' thoughts would not affect Luo Yuan, he did not want to hurt the soldiers who had risked their lives to save him.
