Before the sky turned dark, Luo Yuan found a place to stay for the night about 10 kilometers away.
The cave was on the side of the cliff, and it was covered with vines that covered the entrance of the cave so tightly that it was easy to miss it.
Luo Yuan pushed the vines aside and stepped into the cave. He was hit by a rotten and moldy smell and took a few steps back. At the same time, a few low-level mutated beasts that looked like mice quickly ran away from him. He glanced at them but did not care and just let them run away.
After his nose got used to the smell, he walked into the cave. The ground and walls were covered with vines that extended from the outside. They felt soft when he stepped on them.
Perhaps the cave was well covered by vines, but there were only a few low-level mutated beasts that had just escaped. There were no large mutated beasts in the cave.
The cave was very deep. For safety's sake, Luo Yuan continued to explore.
As the light got darker, the vines under his feet gradually became sparse, and the original appearance of the cave was revealed.
Luo Yuan kicked a rail that was almost completely rotten. He could see two half-rusted rails on it. He walked forward for another 10 meters and saw a completely broken car in front of him. Two rusted iron wheels were lying on the ground, and there were a few scattered bones beside it.
All the signs indicated that it was an abandoned mine, and there must have been an attack here before it was abandoned.
About 10 meters further, the cave was blocked by a concrete wall.
Luo Yuan guessed that the wall had been built when the apocalypse had just started. Now that two to three years had passed, the wall had been seriously corroded. Due to the damp environment, it looked a little swollen and full of cracks. Perhaps it would collapse with a gentle push.
He used his Sense to explore, but there was nothing behind the wall. He did not find anything, so he retreated.
He was not an overly curious person, so he did not want to get to the bottom of it. Moreover, with his current strength, even if there was something scary behind the wall, he would not be afraid. After all, no matter how strong it was, it could not be a level eight mutated beast.
As for creatures below level eight, other than level seven, they might be a little more dangerous. To Luo Yuan, any other level of mutated beasts would be easy pickings.
Next, Luo Yuan went to the corners of the cave and used his aura to clean up the insects and ants that were living there. He then went out and picked up a bunch of dead branches and fallen leaves, bringing them closer to the cave.
The mutated woman, who was hiding in the treetop not far away, scratched her head as she watched Luo Yuan busy himself. She was confused. Seeing that Luo Yuan had not appeared for a long time after entering the mine, she started to feel restless after waiting patiently for a while.
She stuck her head out and looked around for a while. After a moment of hesitation, she jumped towards the entrance of the cave. In the end, it jumped onto a big tree beside the mine and stared at the mine, as if it wanted to see through the gaps of the vines to see what this strange-looking fellow of its kind was doing.
Unfortunately, the vines outside the mine were too dense. No matter how he looked, he couldn't find any trace of the other party.
…
Luo Yuan piled the fallen leaves together and focused his Will. There seemed to be an invisible wave flashing in the air, and the leaves suddenly ignited without any fire. He placed a few slender branches on top of them, and soon, a fire was started.
With his abnormal eyesight, he could see in the dark, so naturally, there was no need for fire. It was human's habit to always yearn for the light. Unless it was raining, Luo Yuan would usually start a bonfire at night.
The sky gradually darkened, and the wind seemed to be blowing outside.
The location of the mine was not good. It was located between the air vents of a few mountains. When the wind blew past, there would be a burst of ghostly wails and howls.
As the strong wind blew through the mine, the hanging vines at the entrance danced in the wind, leaving countless shadows under the bonfire, like the claws of a ghost.
Suddenly, the crisp sound of a dead branch breaking was heard outside the cave. Soon, a slender figure appeared outside.
She kept pacing around the entrance of the cave, and occasionally looked into the cave through the gaps of the vines.
Luo Yuan smiled. He did not need to think to know who was outside. He picked up a dead branch and put it on the bonfire. He did not want to bother her, as he believed that the timid and cautious mutated human would eventually come in.
Sure enough, not long after, the hanging vines outside were pushed aside, and a nimble figure flashed into the mine. She bent her body and stuck to the wall of the cave. As she moved slowly, she stared at Luo Yuan, like a kitten that was about to explode.
Soon, she walked to the corner and squatted down.
It was obvious that the mutated human was not afraid of fire. However, it made sense. After all, she used to be a human. Although she did not have her human memories, there were still some remnants in her subconscious.
Luo Yuan did not do anything that would alert the mutated human, nor did he try to talk to her. After throwing a few dry branches into the bonfire, he closed his eyes and trained his body with his Will. Of course, he did not dare to completely trust the mutated human, so he kept a little of his attention on the outside world.
The reason why the mutated human could no longer be considered as a human was not only because of her appearance, but also because her personality had been taken over by the beast. Although she appeared to be harmless along the way, she was essentially no different from the carnivorous mutated beasts out there. Survival of the fittest was her true nature.
The reason why she appeared to be harmless along the way was that both of them looked alike, which made her think that they were the same species. Another reason was that Luo Yuan appeared to be much stronger than her. If their roles were reversed, he might have been able to keep his life, but when a mutated human faced a person of the opposite sex who looked alike, driven by the biological instinct of reproduction, it was almost inevitable that some unspeakable things would happen.
...
He was not sure if it was because his brain had become four-dimensional or because he had been living in the wild for a while, but recently, he realized that his Will had improved tremendously. It was not obvious when he was flying, but when he looked into his body, he could see more subtle things.
In the past, he could only see the capillaries and lymphatic capillaries at most, and even then, he could only see a small part at the front. He could not do anything at the end.
But now, he could clearly see the entire capillary, as well as the red blood cells that flowed inside.
If the red blood cells were not visible under the microscopic vision of his Will, he would not be able to see them if he did not pay attention. However, the somatic cells that were much bigger than the red blood cells were much clearer. The somatic cells were the size of sesame seeds, like neatly arranged soldiers.
However, the consumption of his Will at the cellular level was extremely shocking. It was like a leaking reservoir. In less than ten minutes, more than half of his Will had been used up. Although there were many cells in the internal vision system, in terms of numbers, it could be counted in the millions. However, if one were to really count them, the area that they covered would not even cover a small piece of muscle.
After a while, Luo Yuan opened his eyes and touched a certain muscle on his arm. He clenched his fist and felt that it was easier to move. His reflexes seemed to be a little faster too. Of course, it could be an illusion.
Perhaps, only when he used his Will to infiltrate all the cells in his body, would he be able to see the obvious effect.
He glanced at the mutated human. She was still sitting in the corner, polishing her nails on the rock out of boredom. After polishing her nails for a while, she would put them in front of her eyes and then continue polishing them.
Her fingernails were as blue as her scales, but the color was extremely deep, close to dark blue. Her fingernails were sharp and slender, extending five to six centimeters from her fingernails. Such long fingernails would have long curled up and deformed on a human's hands, but they appeared straight and sharp on her hands, looking like terrifying spikes.
This was obviously her weapon. It might be useless against large mutated beasts, but it could be fatal to small mutated beasts.
Luo Yuan looked away and saw that the bonfire was about to extinguish, so he added some firewood.
The slight movement made the mutated woman's body stiffen. She glanced at Luo Yuan and then looked at her nails.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, almost covering the roars of the beasts in the forest at night. A few vines at the entrance of the cave were being blown violently by the wind, making a cracking sound. Fortunately, the entrance of the cave was completely away from the direction of the wind, so it was not affected.
He looked at the time. It was almost eight o 'clock, so he took out the tent from his backpack, set it up, and laid down.
At this moment, the color of the tent was completely different from before. Ever since he stepped into the wilderness, he had fused all the things that could be fused with him. This tent was no exception. Although the material of the tent was not eye-catching, it was actually a level-7 material. In particular, the few skeletons supporting the tent were completely fused with the hardest skull of a level-7 mutated beast.
Even if Luo Yuan was completely asleep at night, ordinary mutated beasts would not be able to enter the tent silently.
Not long after he laid down, he started snoring.
It was getting late at night. After an unknown period of time, the mutated woman who was curled up in the corner suddenly opened her eyes and stood up quietly.
Her vertical pupils reflected a faint yellow light in the dark night. She glanced at the tent, then arched her body and walked towards the entrance of the cave with light footsteps. Suddenly, she stopped and listened.
Her face was full of anxiety and her eyes were full of fear.
To her, the cave was too big. It was not like her previous nest, which was only big enough for one person. Even if there was a mutated beast that came in, it would be similar in size to her, so she could still handle it.
The cave was too big. Not only could small mutated beasts come in, but even the extremely scary giant beasts could also come in. This made her feel very insecure.
Listening to the terrifying roars of the beasts outside made her restless. She wanted to leave and look for another cave, but she hesitated and did not dare to go out. Finally, she hesitated and lay down against Luo Yuan's tent, as if that would give her some sense of security.
In the dark, Luo Yuan opened his eyes and slowly closed them again.
…
It was a quiet night. The next day, when Luo Yuan opened the tent, the mutated woman had obviously woken up earlier than him. She had already retreated to the corner.
He kept the tent and put it in his backpack. He took out a water bottle and drank a few mouthfuls of water. He then closed the lid and suddenly remembered that the mutated woman did not drink any water yesterday. He took out a bottle of purified water from his backpack and threw it at her.
It was one of the three bottles of emergency water that the reconstruction area had prepared for him. It was still sealed.
The mutated woman was used to receiving food yesterday, so she quickly caught it out of reflex. She was disappointed when she realized that it was not food. However, she was not stupid, so she quickly noticed the liquid inside the bottle.
She held the bottle of purified water and shook it curiously. She looked at it repeatedly before she opened her mouth and bit the plastic bottle, which was rarely seen before the apocalypse.
Luo Yuan, who was holding the same bottle of purified water and was about to show her how to use it, opened his mouth but did not know what to say.
Fortunately, she still knew that there was water inside. She put her mouth on the broken plastic bottle and kept pouring water into her mouth.
The clear liquid flowed from the corner of her mouth and down her plump chest, leaving a pool of water on the ground. Such a scene was completely erotic. Luo Yuan looked at it and quickly avoided looking at it.
