Epoch of Twilight

Since the end of the world, the fittest survive and the strong prey on the weak. In this cruel competition, only continuous evolution can survive.

Not only the carnivorous mutant beasts are constantly evolving and becoming stronger, but also various herbivores and plants at the bottom. Even facing more dangerous environments and more brutal pressures of survival, the remaining two evolutionary speeds are even faster. quick.

In this forest, there are far more plants above the light green level than all kinds of mutant beasts. Even giant trees with a level as high as seven, not to mention everywhere, Luo Yuan can often see them.

Vegetarians who can survive also either reproduce rapidly, or are exceptionally strong, such as strong defense, such as agile speed, such as a huge body size. Just like the land king before the end of the world, he is not a liger at the top of the food chain but a docile elephant, which is just the result of natural selection.

...

I have to say that he was quite lucky today. Most of the vegetarian mutant beasts had a mild temper. As long as they didn't provoke them, even standing next to them wouldn't be too dangerous. Of course, if you are accidentally trampled to death by it, it's another matter.

If it were a carnivore, it would not have such a good temper. Although there is a huge difference in body size, there is a great possibility that it will not care about a small bug like Luo Yuan, but it is not so realistic to ask it to actively restrain its strength when it passes by.

In Luo Yuan's perceptual vision, this super life not far away is like a sun hanging high, exuding a blazing light. With its power, just the power fluctuation generated when moving at high speed can seriously injure him. The body is worse.

Luo Yuan glanced at the two messages in the system.

One is the completed task prompt when killing the giant frog just now, and the other is the task information that appeared more than ten minutes ago.

The first one is naturally not mentioned. During this period of time, several D+ level tasks have been completed one after another, and the experience has been accumulated to: 101520/307200.

One-third of the experience required for the upgrade has been completed. If it wasn't for one of the seventh-level mutant beasts, which escaped in the end, not only did not get the experience, but was deducted by the system as a punishment, the upgrade experience may have been completed by now. It's half done.

Seriously think about it, it's only been a few days, this uninhabited land far away from the reconstruction area is dangerous and chills, while rapidly accumulating experience, it is also a life-threatening risk, if you don't pay attention, you will be in the gutter Capsize, as it is today.

As for the second message, Luo Yuan only glanced at it, and he immediately canceled it. Such a task has a life to accept, but he doesn't have a life to enjoy it. He doesn't think his life is too long.

"C-level task: kill the grimace horse, time limit: three days; accept/cancel;"

...

The grimace horse surrounded the big tree in the distance, and kept eating with its neck raised.

That big tree is quite huge, with a diameter of fifteen to six meters by visual inspection. The canopy formed by the branches covers a radius of several kilometers. With the terrible appetite of the ghost-faced horse, it is estimated that it will not eat all the leaves of this tree. give up.

It might not leave for a short time, Luo Yuan thought about staying where he was and continuing to heal his injuries.

With this super life nearby, this place has undoubtedly become quite safe. Looking at the mutant beast that is still limp on the ground and unable to get up no matter how hard it struggles, one can know the deterrent brought by a level eight life.

This is the existence of the reconstruction zone that has to rely on a large-scale attack of nuclear bombs to ensure the extermination.

Ten minutes later, all the capillaries had been repaired by him. Luo Yuan stood up, and with a thought, entered the state of pulsation of the earth, preparing to use the continuous power of the earth in this state to speed up self-healing.

Of course, this kind of healing is not perfect, and it is easy to cause hidden diseases if you use it too much, but there are too many internal organs injuries, which cannot be cured in a short period of time. As for the capillary blockage and blood stasis formed by self-healing, you can wait with plenty of time Repair it later.

After a while, the face that was originally pale due to excessive blood loss became rosy, the damaged internal organs regained their vitality, the weakness gradually subsided, and a powerful force grew in his body. He clenched his fist, and the air slapped There was a crisp sound, and it was crushed by him with great force.

He turned his head to look at the ghost-faced horse not far away. Even if it was just unconscious energy fluctuations, there were many phenomena around it. There were turbulent airflows everywhere, and countless vortices appeared out of thin air, and then disappeared instantly.

There are also a large number of electric lights, like spirit snakes, shuttling around.

This is still a state where it is standing still. Once it runs at high speed, or even fights, the whole body's strength is stimulated, and the strength of the vision and the affected area will spread rapidly, even hundreds of kilometers away, it will be affected.

In an absolutely sane state, Luo Yuan has no unnecessary emotions like fear, but only weighs the pros and cons. His eyes flickered, and a bold idea suddenly appeared in his heart.

Fifteen points of wisdom gave Luo Yuan an amazing memory. He still clearly remembered the scene where this ghost-faced horse suddenly appeared in front of him. Its huge size and unconscious terrifying aura were completely different in this forest. What cannot be hidden, the reason why it can give people the impression of appearing suddenly, there is only one possibility, and that is its speed is quite astonishing.

Although there is also the reason why he didn't pay much attention to his surroundings during the battle, but for him who already has sixteen points of agility to cause this kind of visual effect, this speed is at least definitely far faster than him, and it may even exceed the speed of sound.

Of course, he doesn't care so much about the speed alone. He is far behind the speed of many seventh-level mutant beasts. After all, there is a huge difference in body size. What's more, this one is a more powerful eighth-level life form.

What he was most concerned about was that the ghost-faced horse had no sound while running, and besides the turbulent air around it, there was not even the natural gust of wind when it was running at high speed.

When the speed reaches a certain level, air resistance becomes the biggest obstacle. Every meter faster, the resistance not only increases geometrically, but also creates a certain buoyancy for the running target, which not only consumes physical strength, but also greatly affects the running speed .

If the air resistance can be weakened or even eliminated, his speed will increase again, and also in battle, he will be able to kill at a faster speed and with lightning speed.

Since the "floating sportswear" with the ability to balance airflow was scrapped, he has been looking for a replacement, but has not found anything.

Until this "ghost-faced horse" I met today!

It's a pity that this super creature is so powerful that it cannot be provoked by his current strength at all. It is impossible to obtain materials by killing it. Although there is only one level difference between the seventh level and the eighth level, this level is like a natural moat, and the difference between the two is completely qualitative.

But fortunately, this creature has a gentle temper. As long as you are careful and pull out your teeth, it is not hopeless.

What's more, he still has the ability to predict, and if something goes wrong, he can stop in time.

His thoughts turned in his mind. Luo Yuan, in this rational state, had no weakness in character. After weighing the danger, he immediately made a decision.

He raised the saber, and walked slowly and cautiously towards the ghost-faced horse.

At this time, the ghost-faced horse was gnawing on the leaves with relish, and "humming" while eating, looking very happy, completely unaware that there was a small creature not far away, preparing to attract its attention.

Luo Yuan went all the way to Grimace Horse very smoothly. The huge size of this creature is shocking. There are four pillars that are five to six meters thick and more than 20 meters high, exuding a blurred halo. It's more like seeing a thick city wall, which is daunting.

Standing in front of it, a person looks incomparably small like an ant, and the closer you get to this giant beast, the more terrifying the coercion it radiates, almost blinding your mind.

This kind of life, even a drop of blood on the body, contains a strong will.

Strong gene erosiveness, making life impossible!

Now Luo Yuan is also developing in this direction, but the strength of the brand of will is far less than that, it can only be said to be a prototype, but compared with Luo Yuan's unified will, this kind of will that comes from instinct and has not been deliberately sorted out is quite chaotic. , full of wildness.

Even so, the aura it exudes is still extremely terrifying.

If it weren't for Luo Yuan's strong will, being in the state of the pulsation of the earth, and his mind being a little weaker, he would have been so frightened that his mind collapsed like the mutant beast nearby, unable to move.

He stopped fifty or sixty meters away from the ghost-faced horse, then floated up and flew towards its back.

The ghost-faced horse seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly turned to look at it. It seemed that it didn't care much, and continued to eat the leaves with its head raised.

The foreseen picture is not dangerous.

Therefore, Luo Yuan did not change his actions, and continued to fly towards the ghost-faced horse all the way.

A large amount of electric current seemed to be attracted by it, and they converged towards him one after another. For a moment, the electric light flashed on him.

Fortunately, these ghost-faced horses interfered with the geomagnetism and the lightning that was automatically generated seemed terrifying, but in fact it was not very powerful. Luo Yuan only felt a little numbness in his skin, but it was not a serious problem, but the turbulent airflow lingering around the giant beast made him He had a hard time.

These air currents are like a torrent of river water, intricate but intricate, unpredictable and eddy, once touching Luo Yuan, he feels extremely difficult. The airflow is constantly pulling or pulling, rough or gentle, sometimes it is clearly ready to move forward, but it is constantly blown backward, and it is clearly facing left, but it is blown in a different direction.

His flying speed is not fast, at most 20 meters per second, the remaining thrust after the will offsets the gravity is not great, it can only resist the resistance caused by the speed of 20 meters per second, in the air, a slight gust of wind, can blow him away.

In this unpredictable air current, his flying was quite tested.

In a short distance of less than 100 meters, he flew for a few minutes before he landed safely on his back!

Miraculously, as soon as Luo Yuan landed on the giant beast's back, all these air currents disappeared, which made his face slightly relaxed.

The back of the ghost-faced horse is quite broad, nearly eighteen or ninety meters wide, and hundreds of meters long, larger than three standard basketball courts.

This creature is simply a miracle of evolution. If such a terrestrial creature existed before the end of the world, it would have starved to death long ago. It is the unique environment today that can breed such a terrible life.

The feet were quite slippery and weak, and even he had to rely on his will to levitate a little bit. He looked down and found that his feet were not really on his back. The soles of his feet were at least an inch away from the scales. An invisible force supported his body.

He stepped on it, this force field is quite elastic, but the greater the force, the stronger the resistance, and it is extremely slippery, it is impossible to step on it firmly.

In order to prevent any changes, Luo Yuan did not dare to waste any more time, and used the appraisal technique on a translucent scale that was more than one meter wide and green like emeralds under his feet:

"The Scales of the Ghost-faced Horse"

"Use: Material"

"Rarity: Lavender."

"Weight: 18kg."

"Additional capabilities: flexible resistance force field, geomagnetic interference;"

"Comment: The ghost-faced horse is the patroller of the forest. As a vegetarian, it usually looks quite harmless, but don't provoke it. The ghost-faced horse is very easy to hold grudges. It will never stop killing the enemy. Only the corpse of the enemy can calm it down. anger."

All the information flashed in his mind, Luo Yuan's face was calm, he was in the state of the pulse of the earth, he didn't care about the evaluation of the ghost-faced horse's vengeance.

It doesn't look like scales, Luo Yuan thought to himself.

Afterwards, he was no longer interested in the scales. Although the scales were extremely precious, at least they could be used to synthesize bulletproof clothing, but their hard texture was of limited value to Luo Yuan, who acted like an assassin and relied heavily on agility in battle. .

Luo Yuan raised his head and looked at other parts. Compared with the scales, the one that is easier to obtain is a nearly 100-meter-long mane extending from the top of the ghost-faced horse's head to the tail. The mane is quite fluffy and colorful. Moving, jumping non-stop, like a gorgeous dragon.

Moreover, Luo Yuan keenly felt that an indescribable fluctuation of power was emanating from these manes.

There was a strange look in his eyes, and he immediately raised the saber and slowly floated towards the mane fluttering in the wind.

These manes are quite long, each five or six meters long, but they are extremely thin, several times thinner than a human hair, and only when you get close can you find that they are not as colorful as they look from a distance, but rather It is completely black, as for those redundant colors, it is only caused by light.

Luo Yuan stroked lightly, and there was a slight airflow between his fingers, as if he was not touching hair, but a cloud of airflow. Feeling this strange phenomenon, he was already certain in his heart.

He immediately used identification.

"The Mane of the Haunted Horse"

"Use: Material"

"Rarity: Lavender."

"Weight: 0.2g."

"Additional ability: vortex deflection force field;"

The "atmospheric vortex offset force field" seems to be this, a thought flashed in Luo Yuan's mind.

Even if the earth was in a state of pulsation, there was a faint joy that filled Luo Yuan's heart.

In particular, these bristles are extremely light in weight, almost as light as nothing, and after synthetic clothes, they will not affect their actions. They are simply the most perfect synthetic materials for coats.

He took a deep breath, immediately suppressed the emotional fluctuations in his heart, and was about to draw out the saber to act, when his expression suddenly changed, and he stopped immediately.

The predicted result was quite bad. Once he cut off some of the ghost-faced horse's mane, even if it was only an insignificant strand, it would trigger its fury.

But luckily it hasn't happened yet, he slowed down for a while, and started to use the foresight to test again and again. Through the foresight picture, Luo Yuan found that no matter where he went, even if he went to the end of it, where he couldn't see at all, there was nothing. Any role, as long as he dares to try to cut the mane, it will cause its riots.

Luo Yuan became more and more puzzled, and looked at the prediction screen repeatedly, and finally he saw the clue, and he deduced it again, this time he just drew his sword, but the result was still a riot.

Only then did he react!

What triggered its riot was not the mane cutting, but the Saber itself, and he was careless. The Saber is an eighth-level weapon. , but once the knife is drawn, it is a naked threat to the ghost-faced horse.

So he hastily gave up using the saber chopping knife, and then he discovered that the will can't be used either.

The eighth-level life form seems to be quite sensitive to danger, and any force that may cause harm to it will definitely arouse its vigilance and attention.

After all sorts of eliminations, what made people laugh and cry in the end was that Luo Yuan found that pulling directly by hand was the safest way.

These manes are too thin, much thinner than human hair, and extremely dense, which also leads to the number of manes owned by the Ghost Face Horse, which is almost an astronomical figure. No matter how sensitive its nerve endings are, this is insignificant. It is difficult to attract its attention even if it is painful.

Luo Yuan immediately started to act. The mane is quite tough and long, and it takes a lot of strength to pull out each one. He wisely did not pull out the hole, but changed the position every time he pulled out a few, so as not to Arouse the awareness and attention of the ghost-faced horse.

The theft went smoothly. Half an hour later, he had already pulled out a handful of them. They were as thick as a wrist and weighed four to five kilograms. This amount of weight is enough to make a set of clothes, and there are even more.

He tied the plucked mane into a rope, lifted the underwear, tied it on his chest, and pulled down the underwear to cover it. This underwear has a plasma protective layer, which can greatly isolate the fluctuation of the hair, so that Luo Yuan will not carry the mane away. At that time, he was noticed by the ghost-faced horse.

After the action was completed, he didn't dare to stay on its back for a long time. With a light tap of his toes, his body leaped into the air and quickly passed through the turbulent air. After landing, he jumped several times immediately, and his speed reached the limit in an instant. He quickly moved away from here like a phantom.

The ghost-faced horse glanced at Luo Yuan, tilted its head, and seemed a little puzzled, but the temptation of the food in front of it made it quickly forget its doubts, and continued to gnaw on the leaves with relish.
