"Continuing forward from here, we will soon enter the Shennongjia area. Shennongjia harbored various mysterious creatures before the apocalypse, and those creatures grew rapidly after the apocalypse. Not only did they turn Shennongjia into a forbidden area for humans, but they were also rapidly spreading out. The radiation has now reached almost 20 or 30 kilometers in front of us. So we can't continue forward and can only cross the Yangtze River in Yichang." Zhao Xuan looked at the Yangtze River Bridge that was broken in the middle for almost 100 meters with an expression. Said solemnly.
It had been exactly a month since they left Feicheng Base at this time.
At Feicheng Base, they annihilated the super-giant zombie group of 4 million and killed the Corpse King. After receiving sufficient crystal core replenishment, they hurriedly set off on the road without much communication with the people at Feicheng Base.
In this month, they marched five to six hundred kilometers westward, arriving almost in a straight line to the Yangtze River in Yichang City.
Based on his past life memories, Zhao Xuan knew that Shennongjia, more than a hundred kilometers ahead, was an absolute no-go zone for humanity in the last days. He has no interest in exploring at all now.
Even though his current level is already in the middle of level six, and there are 10 more level six spiritual warriors in his team, he still doesn't think his team is qualified to pass through the restricted area.
His tight schedule was also a key reason.
Nowadays, the roads are becoming increasingly difficult to navigate, as evidenced by the fact that it took his team a month to advance five to six hundred kilometers.
By the time he got here, he had only completed about one-third of his intended journey.
After crossing the Yangtze River from here, his motorcade will no longer go straight west, but will turn to the southwest.
"Boss, since it is not suitable to continue moving forward, it is not impossible to cross the river from here. Although the bridge in front of us has a hundred-meter fracture, it is not insurmountable. But according to the information we have obtained, there are things under the nearby river. A giant monster. If it suddenly jumps out when we are crossing the river... the intelligence says that it can glide in the air for a short time." Zhang Xiaocai said a little worried.
"Yes. This is also what worries me the most." Zhao Xuan sighed.
In Zhao Xuan's previous life, from the beginning to the end of the end, he basically lived in Yunhai City and Zhenjiang City, and he didn't know much about monsters in other places.
But despite this, based on the descriptions of local survivors he found previously, although he could not yet determine what species the monster was, he could know that this guy was really something special.
If an aquatic creature can glide briefly, it can only be because it has entered the seventh-level warrior realm, nothing else.
If it insists on stopping them from building a bridge here to win the prize, Zhao Xuan seems to be really unable to think about it. After all, the gap between level seven and level six is too big.
While they were talking, the center of the river suddenly violently turbulent under the bridge pier in the center of the river. Circles of obvious ripples surged rapidly from the center of the river toward the shore where Zhao Xuan and others were standing.
"Brother. There's a big guy coming under the water." Doudou suddenly said.
The thing that Doudou vaguely sensed carried a powerful power, which made her voice tremble a little under the pressure.
At the same time, Zhao Xuan and others felt that they were firmly locked by a cold and evil aura, as if they would be swallowed by that aura in the next moment.
Everyone except Zhao Xuan was in a daze, and their bodies were a little stiff. But Zhao Xuan's mental strength lifted slightly, and all the discomfort was immediately dispelled.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Zhao Xuan shouted sternly.
The others reacted as if they were waking up from a dream, and immediately used all their strength to fly back.
Zhao Xuan used all his strength to stay at the end. Although the opponent was expected to be a level seven creature, Zhao Xuan was not blindly afraid.
He believed that with his mid-sixth level strength and rich combat experience, the opponent should not be able to defeat him.
At this time, Zhao Xuan felt fortunate that he had left the convoy and most of its members behind the mountains two kilometers away from here, and only brought 10 level six spiritual warriors here to observe the situation.
I just didn't expect to attract that thing's attention as soon as I arrived here.
What's more, they didn't expect that thing to be hidden under the bridge pier, and they would immediately attack them as soon as they discovered their presence.
Just relying on the opponent's momentum and pressure, Zhao Xuan immediately knew that the top masters among the surviving humans in his group were not enough to compete with the opponent.
He may be able to deal with the opponent for a while with his cultivation and experience, but his subordinates may not.
So he ordered a retreat.
While the others were running towards a gentle slope beside the road behind them, Zhao Xuan took a few steps back and stood for a moment.
He wanted to see clearly what was under the water.
As Zhao Xuan waited, ripples in the water soon spread to the shore.
'boom'
The water surface suddenly exploded, splashing out huge splashes.
A huge tube-shaped creature about seven or eight meters thick, with a long tail and a total length of nearly fifteen or six meters broke out of the water and soared into the sky.
Under the not too strong sunlight, the dark scales covering its entire body shone with a heart-stopping black light.
Its eyes, which are as big as the mouth of a bowl, shine with cold and cruel light.
Its body quickly broke away from the river surface and instantly rose at least twenty meters into the air, surpassing the river embankment which was only fifteen or sixteen meters high.
Then it opened its bloody mouth, exposed its sharp fangs, and pounced towards Zhao Xuan who was standing on the inside of the road.
"Crocodile Dragon, level seven Crocodile Dragon!"
The moment the monster emerged from the water, Zhao Xuan recognized what species it was.
Crocodile dragon is another name for alligator.
Before the end of the world, alligators could be up to two or three meters long and weigh two to three hundred kilograms, which was already quite impressive.
And the alligators before the end of the world mainly lived in the Yangtze River system in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
Now this giant alligator has not only changed its living location, but its size has also mutated so much that it looks like it weighs 40,000 to 50,000 kilograms.
Size and weight don't actually matter, the key is that its level has reached level seven!
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Xuan had already figured out that this crocodile dragon was definitely not an aborigine from the Yangtze River in Yichang. It should be a talented alligator from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. After the mutation, it ate up all the larger creatures in its surroundings, and then hunted all the way up the river to here.
But it was useless to think about it now, because as soon as the crocodile dragon jumped into the air and crossed the road, it immediately rushed towards Zhao Xuan.
When it pounced, it unleashed its ferocious momentum with all its might and pressed firmly on the prey in its eyes.
Zhao Xuan, who has lived in two lifetimes, has extremely strong mental power. He can get rid of the crocodile dragon's momentum suppression with just a moment of concentration.
At the critical moment, Zhao Xuan's body flashed quickly to avoid the crocodile dragon's attack.
The crocodile dragon pounced too quickly, and its huge figure suddenly rushed behind Zhao Xuan.
'boom'
The road protection facilities next to the road were immediately smashed to pieces, and then the Crocodile Dragon's body hit the ground heavily, making a big hole in the hard road.
