Epoch of Twilight

Feeling helpless, Luo Yuan couldn't help speeding up his pace. When he entered the room, he closed the door immediately before the mutant could take the opportunity to enter.

The mutant outside the door was caught off guard and lightly bumped his head. He yelled "hiss" angrily, as if he still didn't understand his hatred, he showed his sharp claws and swiped a few times on the door in retaliation. Suddenly, several lines appeared on it. Deep scratches.

But Luo Yuan didn't care, in fact, apart from this new scratch, the door was already scarred, and there were abstract patterns everywhere like being scratched by "wild cats", one more, one less, there was no difference at all .

Perhaps it is because mutants have an unforgettable fear of large creatures. Since Luo Yuan's body size has become huge due to the deepening of four-dimensionalization, for quite a period of time, mutants' attitudes towards Luo Yuan have become quite a bit rusty, and they are no longer like him. I used to be so morbidly dependent, and I started to develop the habit of sleeping in my bedroom every night at night.

But the good times didn't last long. As time passed, after the mutant gradually adapted to Luo Yuan's new image, she began to revert to her old ways, and tried to enter his bedroom again in the middle of the night.

But Luo Yuan didn't want to destroy the independence he had acquired with great difficulty.

Except for one time, she broke into Luo Yuan's bedroom carelessly, and let him sleep all night, and then every night, he would lock the door on purpose, no matter how dissatisfied she scratched the door or screamed, Luo Yuan turned a deaf ear to it, repeatedly After repeated attempts, she had no choice but to give up.

In fact, how can such a door stop her? Since she started taking the eighth-level energy crystal core, her strength has been continuously increasing. Compared with when she first came here, she is no longer what it used to be.

In the system's evaluation, she was already a seventh-level advanced life form. In terms of strength, even members of the special operations team (formerly members of the Sword Team) would find it difficult to compete with her.

In fact, what really blocked her was not the door, but Luo Yuan's attitude!

After being in contact with humans for a long time, this mutant who was originally a human has begun to gradually lose his wildness, become more and more human, and even began to reverse evolution.

Taking energy crystals for a long time did not cause her to undergo major mutations, and in some respects, she even weakened.

For example, her scales are constantly becoming smaller, their texture is also softening, and their defenses are weakening. At the same time, the color of her scales is gradually fading, and it begins to develop towards white jade. In the wild, this color is undoubtedly a bit conspicuous. This is obviously not in line with the principle of evolution in the last days.

Luo Yuan once speculated that all this was induced by a stable life and being in a human environment.

The huge difference between her and humans made her feel uneasy and uncoordinated subconsciously. Therefore, in the process of evolution, she began to evolve by imitating humans autonomously. To some extent, this is undoubtedly a protective color in another sense. .

…………

Luo Yuan walked to the weapons room. With a height of two meters, he had already reached the top of the cabinet when he stretched out his hand a little. When he retracted his hand, there was already an iron ball the size of a fist in his hand.

Among them, the eighth-level energy crystal nucleus was sealed inside this round iron ball by him.

The reason for such tight protection is naturally not to make a fuss over a molehill.

On the one hand, it is to isolate the energy crystals from the air and maintain a dry environment. The energy crystal nucleus looks like a spar, but it is actually very soluble in water. If it is left in the air, it will quickly become humid, melt, and accelerate energy. loss.

On the other hand, it is naturally to prevent mutants from following the smell and finding the crystal nucleus.

The breath of this eighth-level crystal is an indescribable temptation for any creature. This is the strong demand of life instinct for evolution. Even Luo Yuan, when encountering this energy crystal nucleus for the first time, would not been seduced.

Of course, it has no effect on him now. His body is producing huge amounts of energy all the time, so much so that the energy crystal nucleus in his heart has gradually grown to the size of a ping pong ball, which is bigger than his body. All the crystal nuclei in the hand are several times larger, and even the blood circulation is slightly affected by this.

If it weren't for the fact that the function of his heart has been weakened to the point where it can almost be discarded, he might have to tear his chest open and perform an operation to remove the energy crystal nucleus.

Luo Yuan scratched lightly along the iron ball with his nails. His nails were obviously much harder than metal. As the nails slid across, countless sparks shot out from the surface of the iron ball.

He blew off the iron filings, and a circle of scratches about two or three millimeters deep appeared on the surface of the iron ball.

"Okay!" he said in his heart.

He held the iron ball with both hands, and twisted his palms in opposite directions. He didn't use much force, and of course he didn't dare to use too much force, lest he accidentally crush the hollow iron ball.

There was a harsh "creaking" sound in the weapon room, and the scratches began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In a few seconds, the iron ball was unscrewed, as if an ordinary person unscrewed a tomato.

Inside are two complete crystals, and a transparent sheet.

This hollow iron ball is not thin, with a thickness of 20mm, but for Luo Yuan's strength of 500 tons, it doesn't matter whether it is 20mm or 2mm.

"The amount of this slice can only be used once."

After taking out the sheet, he closed the iron ball that was twisted in half again, and then, with a light press, he kept kneading with both hands, with gentle and careful movements. Let it out.

After a while, he stopped.

Luo Yuan took a look and nodded in satisfaction. The iron ball, which was originally divided into two halves, has been bonded together again. It is flushed red, without the slightest burr on the surface. If some flaws such as fingerprints are ignored, it looks perfectly round.

Luo Yuan went to the bathroom, cooled the iron ball with tap water, and put it on the top of the cabinet again.

As soon as he walked out of the room, the mutant rushed up impatiently, holding his trouser legs tightly, and his whole body became excited.

"Go away, let's not let you walk!" Luo Yuan swung his legs and cursed.

The mutated man pulled his trouser legs tightly, turned a deaf ear, and kept screaming "hissing". She seemed to have smelled it, and her whole spirit was a little excited.

As the saying goes, the black eyeballs cannot see the silver, and for mutants, they cannot see the energy crystals, and they will not let go when they see the mutants die, and Luo Yuan can't do anything about it. Drag it downstairs.

"Who gets five water glasses!"

"Let me come!" Wang Xiaguang said as he stood up.

Zhao Yali was also about to get up, but seeing that Wang Xiaguang had already gone to get it, she took the opportunity to sit down. At first, I thought it was just Chen Jiayi taking it, but I didn't expect everyone to share it, so I couldn't help but muttered: "It's hard to get used to it, I have to do it again, last time when I was cooking, I pierced the pot."

"You're just a pot. The doorknob of my bedroom is broken, and it hasn't been repaired yet!" Wang Xiaguang came back with a cup at this time, and complained after hearing it.

"I said why I often hear weird noises at night!" Huang Jiahui joked.

Several women suddenly laughed softly.

Wang Xiaguang put down the glass, and couldn't help but blushed when she heard it. After all, she is not like other people who have fought for a long time. She has done her best to face such a dirty joke, which really makes her a little overwhelmed.

It's all Luo Yuan's fault, she cast a resentful glance at Luo Yuan next to her, and her eyes rolled.

The first time Luo Yuan tried it, she thought that this kind of thing was nothing more than that, but later found that the other party was a tireless animal, and every time she tossed her to death, she would never let her go.

She had some doubts that the reason why Luo Yuan let them take energy crystals every once in a while was to have more fun in that kind of thing.

Luo Yuan didn't know Wang Xiaguang's slander, pretended not to understand Huang Jiahui's joke just now, shook his head and said: "You guys, you really don't know your blessings when you are blessed, this thing is the energy core of an eighth-level mutant beast, except You, I'm afraid no one has eaten it!"

Ye Qiuyu nearby looked at all this enviously, and felt lost in her heart. This is the doorway that can lead ordinary people to superman, and it is the key that can make people change their own destiny. If this thing is spread outside, she believes that it can make anyone crazy .

As an ordinary person, she strongly yearns for great strength, but none of this belongs to her. Here she is just a maid called a private doctor. Before she came here, she had already deeply understood her identity.

She lowered her head and hid her lost look deeply so that no one could see it.

"Doctor Ye!"

"Doctor Ye!"

Ye Qiuyu suddenly heard Luo Yuan calling her, she was shocked and quickly came back to her senses.

"Give this glass of water to Chen Jiayi!" Luo Yuan said.

"Well, yes! Mayor Luo!" Ye Qiuyu said quickly and respectfully.

"I told you a long time ago, just call me Luo Yuan." Seeing her awed expression, Luo Yuan said.

"Yes, sister Ye, you don't need to do this at all, we are all on our own." Wang Shishi also persuaded.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Ye Qiuyu panicked and quickly apologized.

"Forget it, forget it, call it whatever you want!" Luo Yuan said helplessly, this woman faced him like a lamb meeting a tiger, and after such a long time, she was still the same.

Luo Yuan shook his head slightly, watched Ye Qiuyu take the water glass, and walked away as if fleeing in a hurry. He really didn't know what to say, and the others also looked at each other in blank dismay.

He had a pretty good impression of Ye Qiuyu. He had been conscientious and conscientious in her family. He not only took on the responsibility of taking care of Chen Jiayi, but also took the initiative to help with housework and worked hard.

Perhaps it is more timid by nature!

At this time, Luo Yuan recalled how she was in a daze just now, pondered for a moment, and divided the remaining crystals into another portion.

He didn't care about the precious eighth-level energy crystals in the eyes of these ordinary people, and there were two remaining energy crystals, even if one more person took it, it would be enough.

The mutant next to him watched the first glass of water being taken away, and immediately pulled Luo Yuan's trouser legs with increasing force, screaming anxiously, fidgeting, if the trousers were not for the skin of a giant space beast Synthesis, I'm afraid she has already torn it to pieces.

She is impatient and doesn't have much patience. After waiting for so long, all her patience has been completely exhausted.

"Brother Luo, don't seduce her. Give it to her first. If you don't, she will go crazy." Wang Shishi usually played well with mutants, and he was anxious for her when he saw it, so he said for her.

"I'm so impatient, I'm so greedy, I don't know when I can change it, here it is!" Luo Yuan glared at her angrily, and threw a piece of crystal to her, still in mid-air, a figure quickly jumped up and took it , can't wait to throw it into his mouth, and then ran to the corner, slowly digesting it.

Next, everyone shared a glass of water and drank it in one gulp, and soon they felt like they were on fire.
