Epoch of Twilight

"Where is it?" Luo Yuan climbed up to the fourth floor and asked loudly.

"It's not far ahead, walk along the corridor, it's near the bathroom." The delicate girl said while panting, wishing she could lie on the ground now.

After continuing to run another fifty or sixty meters, they finally stopped at the entrance of the small conference room.

"We don't seem to have a key?" Huang Jiahui said disappointedly.

"No need." Luo Yuan looked at the solid wood door, and then slammed it hard with his shoulders heavy.

"Bang!" The door was slammed open.

Several people walked into the small meeting, which was only fifty or sixty square meters, and it was decorated like a small classroom. Luo Yuan glanced left and right, moved a few tables to block the door, and the room quickly darkened.

Huang Jiahui hurried over to turn on the lights and exhaust fan, and then sat down on a chair with a tired face.

"I'm exhausted. Why haven't Director Sun and Xiao Shen come yet? Qianqian, you were at the end just now, did you see them?" Only then did she notice that there were two people missing in the room.

"They are still lagging behind. Director Sun and Shen Xiu left together, and they should be arriving soon." Cao Qianqian thought for a while and said.

"Shen Xiu knows how to flatter, and he doesn't even forget this time." A young man in a plaid shirt curled his lips and said disdainfully.

"Zhao Tianming, don't speak ill of others like that. If you want to show off, you can do it too?" Cao Qianqian couldn't blame Zhao Tianming's sarcasm, and immediately retorted.

"Speak less, both of you, and be careful to attract the bugs?" Huang Jiahui reprimanded in a low voice.

The hearts of the two tightened, and they immediately stopped talking.

At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside.

Cao Qianqian looked happy and was about to move the table.

Luo Yuan quickly pulled her back: "Don't be impulsive, listen carefully, these are not human footsteps."

The sound was regular and clear, as if someone was hitting the ground with iron nails at a certain frequency. After listening to it for a while, their faces turned pale.

"Stay here first, there is only one green beetle outside, we are relatively safe." He originally planned to hide here and wait for the swarm to pass by, but the information that suddenly appeared in his mind completely changed his mind.

"Trigger the E-level mission, kill ten green beetles! The mission is valid for three days, accept/cancel."

"Grass, this is forcing me to a dead end!"

Luo Yuan cursed, but continued the task decisively. He is now only one step away from being promoted to level five. As long as he completes this task, he will be able to level up immediately. At that time, whether it is adding an attribute point or five skill points. His strength will once again be greatly improved.

And at this time, even if you don't accept it, I'm afraid it's not completely without danger. In that case, it's better to accept the task happily.

The crisp footsteps were getting closer and closer. When they approached the door, the sound suddenly stopped. Everyone held their breath and did not dare to move. The air in the room seemed to freeze.

The next moment, a tooth-piercing sharp sound sounded from the solid wooden door in front, and the green beetle seemed to be scratching the solid wooden door with its sharp legs.

What was even more frustrating was that there was another footstep in the corridor, and another green beetle came over.

"What should we do now, Xiao Luo?" Huang Jiahui asked nervously. She knew Luo Yuan's ability, and he was the only one with a weapon among these people.

Luo Yuan thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid this door won't last long. We need to kill the two green beetles outside. Otherwise, if we let them in, some of us will definitely die."

"Don't open the door, you want to kill us?" Zhao Tianming quickly suppressed his voice, and whispered, "They can't get in. We have so many people here, and there are tables and chairs, they can definitely block the door."

"Yes, let's move the table, hurry, hurry, or it will be too late!" Cao Qianqian didn't want to take any risks, she said quickly, and then quickly ran to move the table, and Zhao Tianming hurried over to help him.

Luo Yuan was somewhat conflicted. On the one hand, he needed to go out to kill the green beetles and complete the task. Now is undoubtedly the best time. Taking advantage of the time difference, he could kill them one by one and complete the task. But on the other hand, he knows that once the gate is opened, the green beetle will rush in, and it is likely to hurt innocent people, and even some people will die. Killing innocent people for the mission?

Although Luo Yuan's mentality has changed greatly from before the incident, he is not completely ruthless.

"What are you doing standing there all this time? Why don't you come over and move the table!" Zhao Tianming was dissatisfied when he saw Luo Yuan standing there all the time.

Luo Yuan didn't want to argue with him, so he walked over to move the table.

"With a knife, you know how to pretend to be B!" Zhao Tianming muttered again when he saw Luo Yuan move the table. I don't know if it was intentional, but even Cao Qianqian, who was standing at the farthest distance, heard it.

Luo Yuan's expression sank, he stopped, turned around and walked towards Zhao Tianming.

He is not a person who cares about every detail and cannot bear the slightest humiliation. It's just that in this dangerous period, the existence of such people is like a time bomb, which will explode at some point.

"What do you want to do?" Zhao Tianming's face changed, and he said sternly.

"Xiao Luo, don't be impulsive? Zhao Tianming, please apologize quickly." Huang Jiahui knew that Luo Yuan had practiced martial arts, and Zhao Tianming would definitely suffer in a fight, and now was not the time for conflict.

"Why should I apologize, and I didn't say anything?" Zhao Tianming still insisted.

"Don't worry, I just want to tell him one thing." Luo Yuan stopped Huang Jiahui who came to persuade him, and said flatly.

"I'm afraid you don't know that more than ten days ago, six or seven gangsters provoked me like this, and I chopped them down one by one. And yesterday, someone shot me coldly in the back, and I cut off my hand. In the end, he stabbed the opponent's stomach with this knife, and even his intestines were broken.

Do you want to give it a try? "

Luo Yuan's cold and murderous voice seemed to come from hell. Zhao Tianming felt as if his heart was being tightly squeezed by someone, and his legs were so weak that he almost collapsed to the ground due to the intense fear, and his back was completely soaked before he knew it.

Originally, Zhao Tianming wouldn't be so unbearable, but while Luo Yuan was speaking, Luo Yuan's spirit was concentrated, and his aura was spontaneous. Zhao Tianming was just an ordinary person, and when he was rushed by this aura, he naturally collapsed.

"Remember, if you don't have the guts and the corresponding strength, don't provoke others, otherwise you will die a miserable death!" Luo Yuan said coldly.

"You... have you killed someone?" Cao Qianqian regretted it as soon as she finished speaking, and she was too nervous to look at him.

These people are all working in government departments, with stable jobs and sufficient food supply, so most of their consciousness is still in the past. Even if they are clear about the current chaos, they do not have a deep understanding and experience.

"So many people die in the city every day, who cares if it's a mutated creature or a human." Luo Yuan glanced back at her and said indifferently.

Cao Qianqian was as silent as a cicada, and dared not interrupt again.

"Okay, don't scare Qianqian anymore." Huang Jiahui scolded, then turned to Cao Qianqian and said, "He did this to protect himself, legally speaking, it was justifiable self-defense."

If a person has a good impression of another person, no matter how bad the other person has done, it will be beautified in her eyes. She didn't even notice it herself, since Luo Yuan appeared, she felt a kind of secret joy in her heart.

After a while, there were more and more footsteps outside, and it was impossible to tell how many of them had come. The entire corridor was full of chaotic rattling sounds.

The solid wooden door kept shaking, and the long translucent pointed feet got in through the gap in the door.

Cao Qianqian covered her mouth in horror, tears rolled in her eyes.

Luo Yuan caught a glimpse of this scene, and immediately took a step forward, pushing hard against the door, and his pointed feet were firmly stuck in the door.

This pointed foot seemed to be quite hard, and it was not broken when it was caught by the gate.

"Are you coming here to suppress this?" Luo Yuan said coldly to Zhao Tianming.

After Zhao Tianming was threatened by Luo Yuan, he was afraid of offending him again, and when he heard his order, he walked over in shock and fear.

People bully the good and fear the evil. If you speak well, others won't listen to you. Instead, they will think you are a bully. But once you become tough, and even threaten your life, they will immediately become submissive and please you in every possible way.

Luo Yuan waited for Zhao Tianming to hold down the door.

He pulled out the saber, and in Zhao Tianming's eyes full of fear, the sword was as white as snow and flashed away, and he slashed at that pointed foot.

What is shocking is that with the sharpness of the saber knife, it didn't cut off with a single cut. It only cut nearly half of it, and it was exhausted. Although he didn't do it with all his strength, the defense was far stronger than the one he encountered before. rat king.

Stimulated by the severe pain, the green beetle made a strange sound like boiling water, and slammed against the door frantically. Luo Yuan withdrew his long knife, and cut off the pointed foot only after he slashed at the same position.

He picked up the foot-long green pointed feet. Unlike its body, it was slightly translucent, smooth and delicate to the touch, with a hard texture. If it is not confirmed that it is cut from a green beetle, anyone who sees it will think it is a jade artwork.

He inserted the pointed foot into the table with almost no effort. It was conceivable that it would be easier for this thing to be inserted into a person.

"Green Beetle's Pointed Feet"

"Use: material."

"Rarity: light blue."

"Weight: 50 grams"

"Comment: It's very hard and sharp, maybe you can make a weapon out of it."

"light blue!"

Although he had been mentally prepared, when the facts were really in front of him, he couldn't help but have the urge to curse, there were light blue creatures, and there were still countless ones, could it be that light blue creatures were becoming less and less valuable Well, why are they everywhere now.

Grass. The E-level task is really not so easy to complete. It is to let oneself kill ten creatures like the rat king or the giant snake. Thinking about it, I feel a little hopeless.

He pulled out his pointed feet and threw it to Huang Jiahui: "Sister Huang, you hold this thing, can you defend yourself then?"

Huang Jiahui used to be a policeman, and her psychological quality is stronger than that of ordinary people. If estimated by statistics, her willpower should be between ten and eleven. At least stronger than ordinary people, and definitely more courageous than the other two at critical times.

Huang Jiahui took the pointed foot and said with joy, "Thank you!"

Zhao Tianming and Cao Qianqian looked envious, but they didn't say anything. After all, they were not familiar with Luo Yuan, and one of them even had a conflict just now.

The green beetle kept hitting, making loud bang bang noises.

Zhao Tianming gradually became overwhelmed, and sweat kept dripping down: "I'm running out of strength, Cao Qianqian will help me."

Cao Qianqian glanced secretly at Luo Yuan, then at Huang Jiahui, and walked over hesitantly.

"Wait!" Luo Yuan came up with an idea: "It's not an option to go on like this. Sister Huang and Qianqian, you two should stay away first. Zhao Tianming, don't press down with all your strength. Leave a crack in the door for the green The beetle came in a little and I got rid of it."

"Brother Luo, are you sure?" Zhao Tianming wanted to refuse, but didn't dare, and asked with a mournful face.

"Don't worry, I don't do things I'm not sure about." Luo Yuan said.

Zhao Tianming was a little relieved, and secretly felt ruthless in his heart, death is death, there is nothing to be afraid of, he relaxed a little.

The gap in the door suddenly became wider and wider, and a black, whip-like tentacles poked in first. It pressed its body against the door forcefully, the gap in the door was getting wider and wider, and its head squeezed in after a while. The complex mouthparts the size of a bowl look like an assembled precision instrument, constantly opening and closing, making people feel chills all over.

Zhao Tianming's heart slowly rose, and he couldn't help turning around and running away. At this moment, he felt a cold light flashing across his eyes, and then he heard a short and strange cry.

"close the door!"

Hearing Luo Yuan's cold drink, Zhao Tianming felt relieved, quickly closed the door, turned around and put his back against the table, and sat down softly on the ground, motionless.
