Epoch of Twilight

Chapter 40 Out of Control

From one to half past six, the traffic began to move slowly.

In the front are hundreds of wheeled armored vehicles, followed by personnel carriers, and a dozen armed helicopters hovering at low altitude, followed by more than a hundred buses, and Luo Yuan and other private cars are Arranged at the end.

Luo Yuan grabbed the steering wheel again before setting off, and threw Wang Shishi to Huang Jiahui.

The little girl has grown up and started to develop, and she is not a little girl who doesn't understand anything. Sitting on his lap is awkward and prone to things that shouldn't happen. Thinking of the embarrassment that happened before, he couldn't help but feel a little headache, and he didn't know what the little girl would think?

The traffic flow was mighty, stretching for several kilometers, like a slender worm slowly crawling on the ground.

As soon as you get on the highway, the traffic speeds up!

After about half an hour, the traffic drove out of Donghu City, and the surrounding area gradually became remote.

I don't know when the construction started. The entire expressway has been remodeled, and there are two more concrete barriers about 50 meters wide on both sides. But as soon as the area beyond the isolation zone is already another world, it is a world covered in green.

Luo Yuan looked around while driving, his heart full of panic. These green units are no longer the weeds of the past, but a forest that has just taken shape. The flow of traffic in it makes people feel like they are leading to the depths of a deep forest.

If he didn't see it clearly, Luo Yuan even suspected that he was dreaming.

He felt that the plant seemed to be growing faster and faster!

It seems very dangerous here, the entire isolation zone is full of potholes, and there are bloodstains that have solidified and dried everywhere. Luo Yuan even saw a paper-thin animal carcass that was repeatedly run over by vehicles on the highway.

Even without these, just every one kilometer, there is a reinforced concrete fortification and the hideous and cold rapid-fire guns and heavy machine guns on it, you can see the danger hidden here.

Huang Jiahui looked around and said worriedly: "I don't know what the higher-ups are thinking. Why do you keep this forest here? Why don't you burn it? I feel that group of green beetles came from here!"

Luo Yuan smiled bitterly: "If it was possible, I'm afraid it would have been burned long ago, and it is very likely that I have no ability to burn it now!"

"Why, didn't it burn several times before?" Huang Jiahui asked with a puzzled look.

"You also said that it was in the past. At that time, the situation had not completely deteriorated. Through international trade, a large amount of oil could be continuously transported in from several major oil-producing countries. But now the oil trade has been completely cut off. Only relying on the supply of several major domestic oil fields, Not enough at all. What are you going to use to burn this overgrown plant?"

Huang Jiahui couldn't accept it for a while, and said slightly in a daze: "Is there nothing we can do with these plants?"

"There is no oil, you can burn it with gasoline!" Wang Shishi couldn't help interjecting.

"puff!"

This cold joke was so powerful that both Luo Yuan and Huang Jiahui were amused. Even the depression in my heart was dispelled for a short time.

Wang Shishi looked confused, until Huang Jiahui explained, he blushed a lot.

"Of course, there is no way. Alcohol can still be relied on without oil. These plants that are everywhere are the best raw materials for alcohol. Even if the output wants to reach the level of oil, or even eventually replace oil, it is not impossible. The key It’s how the country’s industries are laid out.”

At this time, the vehicle in front stopped suddenly.

Luo Yuan slammed on the brakes quickly. He didn't pay much attention at first. Such a huge and dense traffic flow will inevitably have bumps and bumps. He thought that he would be able to continue to pass soon, but he found a sudden commotion ahead, followed by something like a tarpaulin. The sound of tearing.

"boom!"

He leaned out quickly, but saw an armed helicopter, tumbling and falling obliquely from the sky. After a few seconds, it hit hard on the isolation belt, bursting into a huge flame

Dozens of high-velocity guns fired at the same time, pulling out long red chains in front of them, and the targets were hundreds of huge black mutant birds that appeared in the sky. From time to time, some mutant birds were hit by the concentrated fire of the anti-aircraft guns at high altitude. Torn apart.

Countless black feathers rained down from the sky, and one of them happened to land on Luo Yuan's car.

He was stunned for a moment, picked up the saber and quickly got out of the car, and at the same time hurriedly said: "Everyone get out of the car!"

Hiding in the car does not make it appear, but restricts the scope of personal activities. Once danger is approaching, it is impossible to resist.

Luo Yuan picked up a feather. This feather was almost one meter long, with a smooth and soft surface, but it was extremely light. He could hardly feel the weight of such a long feather in his hand.

"Black Owl's Tail"

"Use: material."

"Rarity: Blue."

"Weight: 10 grams"

"Evaluation: This is the shed feather of the black owl. It is tough and light in texture, and contains weak wind energy."

It's blue again!

Luo Yuan looked at this feather, and the pressure in his heart increased sharply.

Staying in the city all the time, he has no way of understanding how far the creatures outside have evolved. He thought that blue creatures should be very rare, but he didn't expect to encounter them one after another in the past few days.

But this is also very normal, after all, the city is the territory of human beings, as long as the mutant beast appears, it will be strangled immediately. It is quite rare to be able to grow a light blue one, and it is simply more difficult to evolve a blue level. The odds of winning the lottery are low.

At this time, he noticed that the description of wind energy appeared in the identified information.

If he remembers correctly, this should be the second similar description. The first time was the old yellow dog in Zhao Yali's house, which seemed to be fire energy, but this time it was wind energy!

He frowned slightly. This kind of mutated creature containing attribute energy is very rare. So far, he has only found two cases. Whether it is the powerful guard-level green beetle or the one he encountered for the first time, he was extremely impressed. Cauliflower snakes have no attribute energy.

Could it be that these are two mutated creature types?

At this moment, Huang Jiahui came out. She looked at the top of her head and asked worriedly, "Are you all right, should I get the gun?"

Luo Yuan thought for a while and said, "No need, that kind of rifle is useless for this kind of creature! And there is an army ahead, once that rifle is exposed, no one knows what will happen afterwards!"

"how do you know?"

Seeing Huang Jiahui looking at it suspiciously, Luo Yuan handed the feather to it, and continued: "This is the feather of this mutant bird. With its high strength and flexibility, as long as a few layers are stacked together, it will be in front of you." , bullets can't pierce it, it just irritates it."

Many people started to open the car doors, looking nervously at the top of their heads. Lest that kind of terrifying giant bird fly to this side.

But their worries are obviously unnecessary. The black owl in the sky has been firmly attracted by the high-velocity guns and several armed helicopters, and has no way to care about the lively crowd below.

One after another, the black owls were blasted by high-velocity guns one after another. After a few minutes, the remaining black owls finally felt fear, and after screaming a few times, they flapped their wings and quickly moved away from the area.

Luo Yuan was also lucky enough to collect five feathers around and sat in the cab.

"What are you doing with these feathers?" Huang Jiahui asked.

"Maybe it can be exchanged for money?" Luo Yuan smiled perfunctorily. He thought of synthesis before, although he hasn't figured out what to synthesize, but this kind of feather containing wind energy is also a rare material. It would be a pity to give up.

"Can this be exchanged for money?" Huang Jiahui didn't believe it.

"That's not sure. Didn't you see that many people picked it up? And this kind of thing can be made into a body armor with a little sewing. Surely someone will buy it?"

When Huang Jiahui heard it, she immediately regretted it. There were so many feathers that fell from the sky at that time. If she had the heart to pick them up, she would definitely be able to pick up a few. She didn't think about exchanging money, but planned to make a body armor like Luo Yuan said. She had long since discovered that Luo Yuan had been wearing a green bulletproof vest, like a treasure in front of her, and she had been coveting it for a long time. But it's too late to pick it up now, those feathers have already been looted by others.

In just a minute, traffic flowed again.

There were several attacks one after another on the road, because they did not come from the air, and most of the attacks of small animal swarms were easily defeated by the firepower of the fortifications before they crossed the isolation zone. Accidentally shot and killed by army fire.

Looking at the suicide attacks one after another, Luo Yuan even doubted whether these creatures were being manipulated by powerful creatures.

Four and a half hours later, the traffic finally slowly entered Donghe City.

The leisure city in its heyday is now heavily guarded. From the highway, a fortification group that surrounds the entire Hedong City and even the suburbs and rural areas has already started construction. Numerous engineering vehicles are under construction in full swing.

When the vehicle reached the intersection of the Hedong City Expressway, it finally stopped. Except for the army that continued to advance, the other vehicles were stopped by the heavily armed police on the side of the road.

"Welcome everyone to Hedong City. I am Fang Xiao, the squadron leader of the Xicheng District Squadron of the Hedong Armed Police Brigade. Now everyone get out of the car and undergo the necessary registration and inspection!" An armed policeman shouted with a loudspeaker.

Luo Yuan's expression changed, and he exchanged a glance with Huang Jiahui. There is a rifle hidden in the car, and if it is checked, it will definitely be exposed.

However, it is obvious that he is definitely not the only one who has contraband, and there are definitely many, and someone will show up soon.

"Why do you want us to register and check?" A car owner said angrily when he got out of the car.

"That's right, there are few things, who do we look for!" a car owner shouted.

"Officials don't have good things, the world is so fucking dark!"

Because they think that the law does not blame the public, and the crowd is outraged, and these are not ordinary civilians. These days, if the rich do not make friends with a few officials, they will not be able to make a fortune at all, so they are naturally more confident.

"Comrades, please don't misunderstand. We only conduct simple X-ray inspections, just to prevent prohibited items from flowing into Hedong City and affecting the stability of Hedong City. Guns, weapons, bows and other weapons must be handed in!" Fang Fang Xiao comforted in a loud voice, but cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Once there was a mass incident, he would be finished.

It's okay if you don't say this, but when you say it, everyone is furious. Those who have experienced the collapse of order and the swarm of insects have long been completely disappointed in the power of the government. For them, weapons are the only last force that can protect their safety.

Some people who lost their minds even took out their guns, seeing that the situation was about to get out of control!
