Chapter 246 Dawn of the Apocalypse
Chapter 246 Dawn of the Apocalypse
Bang bang bang! !
Ding! Ding ding!
With a barrage of fire, Bai Yuekui drew his Tang sword, slicing through the bullets. His eyes flashed like lightning, and in the next instant, he appeared like a ghost in front of the figure holding the child, his sword falling with a swift motion.
It moves as fast as lightning.
"!?"
puff!
He caught the child and placed him in the arms of the already dead medic. "Wait for me, I'll be right there to get you."
Immediately, a figure burst forth from the yellow sand, a flash of blade, limbs and severed bodies flying everywhere, and the crowd suffered heavy casualties in an instant!
boom!
The terrifying force pierced through a scavenger with a single blow, sending him crashing into a car, which tilted precariously due to the immense impact.
Bang bang bang! !
The bullets couldn't even scratch him. Bai Yuekui's figure flashed by again, and a moment later, only a group of scavengers with missing limbs and constant wailing remained at the scene.
"Damn it... Die!"
A scavenger tried to fire again, but Bai Yuekui flashed forward and killed him with a single slash.
"No, it can't be! My children, all my children have been...!!"
"After watching the excitement for so long, it's time for you to experience what it's like to wander alone in the apocalypse."
Bai Yuekui appeared behind the old woman, raised his hand and shot her twice, breaking one of her intact legs. The remaining leg was a prosthetic, which was very old.
The blood gradually flowed into the soil beneath the Mana Flower.
The Mana Flower swayed slightly, emitting a red fluorescent substance.
Bai Yuekui walked over to the modified armored vehicle and inspected it. "Desert Raider GX73, first-generation transmission, old but powerful engine, with built-in anti-reconnaissance capabilities, barely passable."
He turned to look at the old man on the ground, waved his hand and said, "In exchange for sparing your life, I'll take this convoy. Thanks."
The old woman lay on the ground, glaring fiercely at Bai Yuekui. "Pah! Don't be so smug. You think you can get away with just surviving these ruins? As long as I live today, one day I will definitely get my revenge on you!"
"Sure, you're welcome anytime. Although I have nothing... I have plenty of time."
After saying this, Bai Yuekui got into the car and left.
The wind blew up his trench coat, revealing a brain attached to his waist with a life support device.
"You...you're the woman with her head tucked into her waistband?!"
The old woman was terrified, but her eyes gleamed with even stronger greed. "Wait! I... I'll let you eat an arm, no, two arms! Don't go! Help me... help me!!"
The primordial energy swept in from behind, gradually engulfing her body.
Bai Yuekui watched the gradually disappearing corpse in the rearview mirror without any emotion. As darkness fell, the car lights were turned on.
He placed his brain on the passenger seat, fastened his seatbelt, and said, "Ready? Let's go, bro."
"Gulu gulu..."
The convoy drove off into the distance.
After several days of driving, Bai Yuekui emerged from the desolate desert, but the situation in other places was not much better.
Even if you occasionally encounter living people, they have all been completely turned into beasts by the apocalypse.
Wow…
That day, Bai Yuekui drove his car to the outside of a canyon, and as night fell, he took a short rest.
"I didn't expect there to be a water recycling system. I'm quite lucky."
Amidst the misty air, a tall, fair-skinned figure appeared and disappeared in the fog.
In this post-apocalyptic world, water is the most precious resource. Maintaining daily drinking water is already difficult, let alone using it for bathing.
After washing up, Bai Yuekui, dressed in light clothing, looked at himself in the mirror and then exhaled.
Just as I was about to change into the dried clothes, the earth suddenly began to rumble!
Rumble…
A sudden realization struck me: this severe geological disaster was the beginning of a major catastrophe!
The alteration of continental plates directly destroyed human civilization.
However, as the Mana ecosystem gradually took shape, no new ground vines sprouted from the ground, and this geological disaster gradually disappeared. In its place, the Mana ecosystem and creatures like the Devouring Beasts carried out a more thorough cleansing of humans!
How could an earthquake happen here? Has a new ground vine appeared?
With a sense of doubt, Bai Yuekui opened the car door and got out.
Looking up into the distance, I discovered an astonishing scene.
A beam of blue light shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire world under the night sky and bringing a glimmer of hope to this despairing post-apocalyptic wasteland.
miracle!
What is that...?
……
The next day, Bai Yuekui arrived nearby. When he got out of the car, he glanced at the remaining energy and found that there wasn't much left. So he simply put some supplies and drinking water on the cow's back and abandoned the convoy.
We got off the bus and walked forward along the huge canyon.
Before long, he arrived at the foot of a majestic, massive rocky mountain. Along the way, he could see scavengers everywhere.
However, what Bai Yuekui found strange was that these scavengers did not show the same hostility towards her as the previous ones.
These people walked blindly in that direction, like zombies.
The further we walked, the more people there were.
"Moo~"
The cow took a bite of the roadside weeds, and Bai Yuekui's eyes flickered. Only then did he realize that lichens and weeds were growing on this desert that should have been completely barren!
This discovery startled her, and she quickened her pace forward.
About an hour later, after crossing a treacherous canyon, a scene that seemed like another world appeared before our eyes.
A lush jungle has come to life here, injecting a new breath of life into this dead world.
Is this... real? Or...?
Bai Yuekui glanced at the cows grazing, and the stench of decay mixed with yellow sand in the air disappeared, replaced by fresh air.
Everyone who came here knelt down before a huge tree as if on a pilgrimage, and then took turns drinking the lake water around the tree that emitted a faint blue glow.
Bai Yuekui walked to the lakeside, dipped his hand in the water, and then his expression changed slightly.
This is... the essence of life!
Has the mana ecosystem evolved again?
No, the Mana ecosystem only plunders life essence, it doesn't give anything back, what is this...?
Looking up at the massive tree trunk, I noticed something: specks of azure light flowed between the canopy, and a ring of cliffs surrounded this idyllic world.
"That is!?"
With a slight change in expression, Bai Yuekui began to climb up the steep rock face, leaping several meters in a single bound, and soon reached the top of the cliff.
A figure is standing here, and looking ahead from the towering rock peak, one can see a huge skeleton, nearly a hundred meters tall, standing between heaven and earth!
"This is……!"
"It's just an aggregate of living beings."
Qin Ming stood calmly to the side, glanced at Bai Yuekui, and noticed her unusual behavior.
By controlling the body's vital substances in a certain way, the body's metabolism is slowed down, thereby achieving a longer lifespan.
Some of their genetic locks have been unlocked, far exceeding that of ordinary people, but not to the point of being inhuman. Their lifespan can probably be maintained within 200 years. Once they are in battle, they will operate beyond their capacity, accelerating cell depletion and further diminishing their lifespan.
According to the standards of spiritual cultivation, he has probably only barely reached the level where he can cultivate the life form system.
