Luo Yuan walked forward step by step while carrying more than 200 kilograms of weight. To save his energy, he did not run, but his speed was still much faster than ordinary people.
It was almost noon, and the high temperature of the sun made Luo Yuan feel like he was in a steamer, even with the layers of shade from the trees.
However, there wasn't much sweat on his body. There was only a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. This was because he was carrying a heavy load on his back. Otherwise, with his physique, he wouldn't sweat even when the temperature was the highest in the day.
The campsite was not far from the logging area. Luo Yuan walked at a moderate pace, and it only took him about 10 minutes to reach his destination.
Luo Yuan's face became much more serious when he arrived. He was no longer as relaxed as before.
He continued to move forward carefully, and the more he walked, the more serious his face became. The area where the trees were felled was very large. With just a rough estimate, there were already more than a thousand tree stumps along the way, and each of them was a big tree that was close to two meters tall.
When he arrived, he could vaguely hear a loud and muffled sound. The tone was varied and complicated, and it was obviously not an ordinary mutated beast. He knew that he was getting closer and closer to his destination. He carefully climbed over a slope, and finally stopped when he reached a huge exposed rock at the highest point.
They were on a high vantage point and had a wide field of vision. Below them was a small valley, but it was different from other places that were covered with trees. Here, it was almost barren, and there were only tree stumps.
Further ahead, there was a small hill of logs.
It was bustling there, and there were countless tall gray 'giants' carrying thick logs. They were shouting loudly as they walked deeper into the valley. This was obviously a transfer station for logs.
These giants were about five meters tall, and their bodies were gray with very little hair. Other than the top of their heads, which was a straight line with a few hairs, the rest of their bodies were smooth. Some of the giants had animal skins wrapped around their waists, but the ones wearing animal skins were obviously tall adult giants. Some of the smaller 'teenagers' did not have them.
Almost all of them had weapons hanging on their waists. Most of them were parts of mutated beasts, such as claws and teeth, and they were tied to wooden sticks with vines.
Although these giants looked like humans, there were many traces of beasts on them. They did not have eyebrows, and there were only two black holes on their noses. Their mouths were big and shaped like a U, and the corners of their lips extended to their cheeks, making it easy for them to bite.
Although he was mentally prepared, he still felt cold when he saw the scene. It was not only because of the strength of the giants. In fact, even if there was a group of light green level or even green level creatures, Luo Yuan would at most turn around and run far away from this place. He would not feel so pressured.
However, these were not ordinary mutated creatures. The behavior of these giants indicated that they were a group of intelligent creatures. They had formed a relatively primitive society and had learned to use tools. They might even have a language. Moreover, there were quite a number of them. There were more than a hundred of them that could be seen with the naked eye, and there might be more in the depths of the valley. These giants were strong, and their intelligence was obviously not low. If they had a stronger reproductive ability, it would mean that the status of humans would soon be challenged.
Luo Yuan looked serious. In less than two months, he had already seen two types of intelligent creatures. The last time he had seen one, but this time there was a large group. The frequency of their appearance was too high, and this was only what he had seen. There were countless of them that he had not seen.
Could it be that the cycle of civilization was really going to happen? Perhaps in a hundred years, there would be another type of creature on Earth, treading on the path that humans had once walked.
Luo Yuan took a deep breath and suppressed his thoughts. He continued to observe the giants.
These giants were very strong. Their muscles were so strong that they could easily carry a giant log that weighed more than 10 tons with only seven or eight people. Their reactions were fast, and their movements were fast. This meant that their Dexterity was not low either. It was at least 12 or 13 points, and it was a different story when it came to battles.
Their weapons were close-range weapons, but as intelligent creatures, they had to be wary of stone attacks.
In general, the abilities of these creatures were between dark blue and light green. As long as they did not exceed the light green level, they would not be much of a threat to him. The only thing he had to worry about was the number of them, and the possible chain reaction that could occur after an attack. Luo Yuan believed that with his speed, they would not be able to catch up to him.
"Level E Special Mission: Wipe out the tribe of the Grey Men and kill all intelligent creatures in the tribe. Hint: This is a special mission. The actual difficulty has been reduced by one level. Time Limit: None. Accept cancellation. "
A notification came from the system, but the mission this time was a little strange. It was very different from the previous ones.
"Special mission! What's going on? Could it be related to intelligent creatures? "Luo Yuan wondered.
However, Luo Yuan did not have time to think about it. Since the mission had been reduced by one level, which was E- difficulty, he could not help but feel relieved.
The difficulty of an E- level mission was equivalent to that of a light green level creature, which was no longer a threat to Luo Yuan's current strength.
He suppressed the urge to rush over and kill wantonly. He put down the pouch full of short spears on his back and took one out unhurriedly. He was about 150 meters away from the pile of logs, which was within his effective shooting range. He had a high vantage point and a wide field of vision. It was undoubtedly the best place to attack.
Moreover, if he killed them one by one, the group of giants would not feel that it was too dangerous and run away. Instead, it would attract their attention and attack. He knew very well what the difficulty of this mission was. It was not to defeat them, but to wipe out all of them.
He shook the spear and stood up. The next moment, his body suddenly blurred, and the short spear in his hand flew out. The next moment, there seemed to be a clap of thunder, and a strong wind blew.
The short spear broke through the sound barrier and flew forward rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it plunged into the ground. The nearest giant was about 10 meters away.
He had missed!
Luo Yuan's forehead was sweating. He shook his head and took out another spear.
However, this attack also startled the surrounding Giants. Many of the Giants who were still carrying the logs subconsciously let go of them, causing the logs to roll down and hit several Giants. The scene became chaotic, but even more Giants became vigilant. They took out their weapons and looked around again and again.
"Bang!"
There was another loud noise.
After adjusting the strength of his muscles, he finally hit the target this time. A giant at the front suddenly trembled, and a cloud of smoke-like sawdust burst out of its chest. Then, its entire chest caved in, and a terrifying kinetic energy passed through it. Its flesh and blood exploded on its back, creating a hole the size of a washbasin.
Such a wound was fatal, even for a giant that was more than five meters tall.
Its eyes were wide open, and its mouth was wide open. Large amounts of blood flowed out of its mouth, and then its heavy body knelt on the ground.
The short spear that Luo Yuan had chosen was not made of hard wood, but light blue level wood. It was very fragile, and if it collided with the spear at high speed, it would instantly turn into sawdust. All the kinetic energy of the short spear would be absorbed by the target, so it was especially lethal, and the wound would be huge.
Suddenly, there was another explosion, and a giant who was obviously confused by the sudden attack suddenly felt a pain in his leg, and fell to the ground. His whole leg was gone.
The loud noises came one after another, like the muffled thunder in the sky. One by one, the giants fell. Luo Yuan had purposely slowed down the pace to prevent them from panicking and running away, but in just half a minute, there were still seven to eight giants who had fallen.
Roars of anger, screams of fear, and wails of pain rose and fell, and the scene was in chaos. Suddenly, one of the giants noticed Luo Yuan, and pointed in one direction, shouting angrily.
The surviving giants quickly looked in that direction, and saw a small figure standing straight on the hillside, slowly pulling out a strange weapon in his hand.
The giant's face gradually became ferocious, and a fierce aura filled the air.
After a roar, all the giants who could still stand up roared loudly and rushed towards Luo Yuan. A large cloud of dust was stirred up behind them, and even the ground was shaking slightly. There were only a few dozen giants, but the aura they brought was like that of an army of thousands of horses galloping.
