Bai Zhi enters the gang territory every four hours, stays for ten minutes to half an hour, and then comes out. The gang territory has changed a lot now. The bamboo forest and peach forest are changing day by day, and they are expanding to the plains. The wheat and beans grown on the plains are about to mature. Bai Zhi found a few books on the deep processing of agricultural products and was reading them. Since she wants to do business with others, she has to be professional. She will never provide seeds or anything like that.
The changes in the outside world were also obvious. The flashlight burned for a while before breaking down on the first two days, and then stopped working on the third day. The electrical appliances on the RV were also unusable at noon that day. There was more and more energy floating in the air, and she could even identify the energy points of various systems in the darkness. Her body seemed to be absorbing a small amount of free lightning energy spontaneously. Bai Zhi found this feeling like her skin breathing novel and interesting.
On the fourth day, the earth switched to shaking mode, with large and small earthquakes coming one after another. The cave was very shaken by the shock. Except for the stone chamber that Bai Zhi dug herself, which collapsed with a palm-sized corner, not even a grain of sand fell from the spacious cave hall outside.
Hong Xingluan contacted Bai Zhi after a strong earthquake and said: "The radiation changes have been measured above. The self-destruction may not be as serious as expected, but nuclear winter is certain. Moreover, the explosion of these nuclear bombs will cause the earth to deviate from its original orbit. In the future, there will be It’s hard to say what kind of changes there are. Is it safe where you are now?”
"It's very safe. I live at the end of a fork in the road, and no second creature has ever come here. Are you in trouble over there?" Bai Zhi asked.
"There is a group of small mutated beasts blocking our exit. It's not really a trouble. Well, I didn't know if you guys really fell out with each other. I thought it would be fine if I just brought you together. I'm sorry."
"You don't understand the situation, that's okay. I haven't thanked you yet. It's really safe here. Being alone is good for me. Please contact me after a while." Bai Zhi smiled at the colorful energy spots in the dark and cut off contact with him. , calm down and relax your mind, allowing your body to attract energy freely.
In her perception, the small crystals transmitted were a group of tiny dots with weak light, drawing a circuitous dotted line between her and her former partners. Despite the great changes now, the crystals she created are still very stable, and none of them have self-destructed.
At the entrance of the cave, a yellowing fireball slowly moved in, and a voice whispered: "It's safe here! Quick, quick, let women and children go first."
Several women and men holding children trotted in, the sweat on their foreheads and faces glistening in the light of the fireball.
"Quick, are you all in? Xiao Wu, seal the entrance of the cave!" It was still the same voice. Following his shout, a stone wall rose from the ground, sealing the entrance of the cave that was as high as a person.
This cave has only one entrance and exit, and if the entrance is sealed, everyone will be suffocated. Bai Zhi, who originally didn't want to say anything, poked her head from the top of the cave and shouted, "Do you dare to leave a ventilation hole?"
"I...I don't know how." Xiao Wu stammered in reply.
The person who just spoke suddenly looked back, "Who, who is talking?"
Bai Zhi jumped down from the top of the cave and slapped the stone door. Dozens of flat holes appeared on the stone door, "I. I have lived here for several days. Although this cave is very high, there is no way to pass it above. Sealed."
"That hole..." The speaker pointed to the top. In the dim light of the fireball, one could barely see a dark hole at the top of the cave roof.
"That's where I live. I dug it myself." Bai Zhi exhaled softly. She hadn't interacted with people much for more than a month. Facing these people who looked at her like a monster, she was under great pressure. She tiptoed slightly, jumped up and crept into the cave, took out a candle and lit it.
A dim yellow light lit up in the small room, making it appear darker outside. It was quiet for a while, and the woman began to coax the child to sleep in a low voice, which was not loud but sounded warm. Bai Zhi sat on the wall of the cave, trying hard to huddle up and warm her limbs with her body.
"Mom, I'm hungry." The child shouted drowsily in his mother's arms.
"Go to sleep, there will be something to eat when you wake up." The mother's voice was very firm. Everyone knew that what she told was a lie, but the child believed it and fell asleep with a low hum.
"Section Chief Gao and the others have run away, and we have nothing to eat!" Xiao Wu's frustrated voice was loud.
"Even if they don't run away, the food won't be enough for everyone." Another man said fiercely.
"The thief will starve to death. At least we saved our lives this time." The voice that spoke at the beginning was very strong: "Rest first. When the group of mutated animals outside leave, we will go find them."
"What is chasing you?" Bai Zhi probed her head again. These men all have level three powers, and the one who speaks forcefully is close to level four. Such a group of people would not be weak if they dragged their families away and ran away when they saw a mutated animal.
"There are seven or eight rabbits as big as dogs, and they can shoot ice arrows and smash ice cubes." The speaker raised his head, "Big sister, have you ever encountered them?"
"I've seen people spraying water balls, but I've never heard of people smashing ice cubes." Bai Zhi frowned. Even such a weak animal has an upgraded version of water power after mutation. It seems that mutated animals can adapt to changes faster than humans. Small animals like rabbits are also very fertile. If there are no natural enemies and there is enough food, the population of mutant rabbits will be very large. This group of people may be encountering a small subset of a group.
"How about we talk about the situation? My name is Wang Yiquan, what do you call me?" Wang Yiquan looked up at the dark entrance of the cave with a depressed expression.
Bai Zhi hesitated for a while and said, "Gao Jingting."
"We're not familiar with each other, so I won't be shy and call you Tingting. Xiao Gao, come down and chat?" Wang Yiquan is in his early thirties, with thick and hard short lengths like a hedgehog. He is not tall, but extremely capable. He raised his face, cheerful, but his eyes were cold and sharp.
Bai Zhi slid down against the trembling wall and stood against the wall a few meters away from him, "What are you talking about?"
"Are you alone? How long have you been hiding here?" Wang Yiquan looked at the girl across from him in the dim light. The neat dress conflicted with the cute girl attributes given to her by her appearance, making the girl look doubly delicate. Despite her cold demeanor, she still looked harmless. Even if such a girl really lives alone in the apocalypse, she will soon be companions. How can she be alone in such a dangerous time?
"It's been a few days. I got separated from my friends around here. I was afraid that they wouldn't find me when they turned around, so I just stayed here." Bai Zhi gave a relatively reasonable reason, "Where are you?"
"There were a few hundred of us at first, and we encountered all kinds of difficulties along the way, and that's what happened in the end." Wang Yiquan said no more detail than Bai Zhi, "How many days have you lived here, have you encountered any mutant animals?"
"Not before you guys came." Bai Zhi noticed that the stone door that sealed the entrance of the cave trembled at a different frequency than the cave wall on the ground. "Is the mutated animal outside?"
"They are those rabbits that spit out ice arrows. They are bigger than huskies and are half as tall as a human even if they stand up. They are quite difficult to deal with." Wang Yiquan looked at the entrance of the cave anxiously. The stone door made a clanging sound and he let out a low coo The sound was mixed with the hissing sound, and it sounded like the rabbits were having a heated discussion on how to open the door.
"The earth attribute power should be able to open holes in the cave wall, right?" Bai Zhi asked.
Wang Yiquan and Xiao Wu nodded at the same time, and Xiao Wu's eyes roamed back and forth on the cave wall. Bai Zhi went back to the stone room and brought down her hiking bag. She threw the end tied around her waist to Xiao Wu. Then she climbed to the top of the cave, pierced a few climbing nails with rings into the stone wall, smashed them in hard, and when she slid down, she took Xiao Wu. Wu hung it up to a height of more than one meter. Wang Yiquan quickly grabbed the rope in Bai Zhi's hand and pulled Xiao Wu up with force.
Bai Zhi walked to the stone door and guarded the entrance to prevent the rabbits from breaking in.
Xiao Wu fumbled for more than half an hour and built a stone room of more than ten square meters opposite Bai Zhi's residence. Wang Yiquan assigned the men to hang the women and children into the stone chamber. He walked to the opposite side of Bai Zhi and asked: "What level is Xiao Gao's superpower?"
"Level 6." Bai Zhi said lightly.
Wang Yiquan's eyes twitched. Level 5 is very rare. This girl who was separated from her relatives and friends is actually at level 6?
Everyone except the two of them went up. Bai Zhi said: "Go up first. Wait for them to come in and see how to fight. I have never seen a rabbit that can shoot ice arrows."
After Bai Zhi jumped into the stone chamber, Wang Yiquan also climbed the rope and entered the other side. More than a dozen people were crowded into the stone chamber, but Xiao Wu, who was squatting at the entrance of the cave, looked pale and had exhausted his powers. He could no longer expand the stone chamber.
Soon the stone door collapsed, and the rabbits swarmed in, more than ten times the number of rabbits. There are nearly a hundred mutated rabbits, the smallest ones are bigger than dogs, the largest ones are as big as calves, and they stand more than one meter tall. The ice arrow that the largest rabbit shot at Wang Yiquan was nearly one meter long.
Bai Zhi pops up a small thunder ball and hits the ice arrow. The thunderball, which was slightly larger than a marble, drew a shining arc and turned into the size of a table tennis ball when it hit the ice arrow. With a low rumbling sound, the ice arrows turned into water droplets and splashed everywhere. The thunderball was intact. It turned a corner and knocked away several ice arrows. It went straight to the door in front of the big rabbit. After the explosion, the two long ears of the big rabbit were blown away. One and a half black.
The big rabbit made a cooing sound that threatened its opponent, turned around and jumped towards Bai Zhi, hitting a few meters below the entrance of the hole. Under its leadership, the rabbits rushed to jump to Angelica dahurica sitting at the entrance of the hole, showing their jumping ability under the leadership of the rabbit leader. Earthquakes disrupt their movements from time to time. Often a group of rabbits jump up, and half of them fall down when shaken. The rabbits that jumped halfway up were not yet proficient in using their new abilities. Their ice arrows rarely reached one or two meters away from Bai Zhi, so they could basically be ignored.
Wang Yiquan and several friends aimed their thunderball, fireball and golden blades at one at a time, and Bai Zhi added one or two more thunderballs, killing and injuring one in a few minutes. The dead and injured rabbits were immediately bitten to death by the big rabbit. The big rabbit tore the corpses of the same kind into several pieces and threw them out, squeaking several times, and several small rabbits rushed out to eat. The smell of blood was very unpleasant.
After more than a dozen rabbits died, Wang Yiquan and the others ran out of powers and stopped. Bai Zhi sat calmly at the entrance of the cave, and the thunderballs thrown out were bigger, and one could be seriously injured in two hits. She selectively attacks the rabbits, controls the amount of food they eat and upgrades, and tests the strength of the rabbit monsters at various levels after the Earth copy is upgraded. At the same time, she is also testing her own power changes.
Her abilities have been significantly improved after the earth version was upgraded. She can use abilities faster and her ability to control abilities has also been strengthened. She was confident that she could kill their boss with just the group of rabbits below without a fatal blow.
The light in the cavern flickers on and off. Every time the thunder ball lights up, there are always one or two ferocious-looking mutated rabbits puffing and falling down. After the thunder ball explodes, dozens of pairs of red eyes flash in the dark, and the sound of the rabbits biting and eating is extremely terrifying.
Someone in the stone room opposite covered his mouth and vomited. Wang Yiquan looked at Bai Zhi, his eyes getting colder and colder.
Facing the last dozen big rabbits, the thunderball thrown by Bai Zhi was nearly as big as the mouth of a tea cup, and it still maintained the efficiency of seriously injuring one rabbit in two attacks. After the rabbit BOSS killed a seriously injured fellow, he no longer summoned the same kind to eat. Instead, he dragged the corpse aside and chewed it with his head down. The remaining rabbits watched from a distance and stopped attacking Bai Zhi. Bai Zhi kindly threw two thunderballs to blow up a rabbit's head, and a dozen rabbits pounced on it ferociously.
The final melee started between the dozen big rabbits approaching the BOSS and the BOSS. Bai Zhi was always on the lookout, helping out whichever side was losing, trying to ensure that every rabbit was injured but not dead. After she threw the thunder net, all of them except the BOSS Big Rabbit were wiped out. Bai Zhi jumped down from a high place in the shining white light, cut off the BOSS's neck with a knife, quickly absorbed the light ball, put the rabbit head into her backpack, touched the corpse, and harvested five exquisite rabbit skins and ten balls of rabbit fur.
The bright purple light ball rose to the top of the cave, and Bai Zhi set about burning the corpses and blood stains, leaving only the BOSS's corpse, and asked Wang Yiquan: "Do you eat the meat of mutated animals?"
"Eat!" Wang Yiquan came back to his senses and slid down on the rope, "Xiao Gao, are you so powerful at level six?"
"You can just use the terrain. If you ask me to stand among the rabbits, I definitely can't do it." Before Bai Zhi could finish her words, a strong earthquake hit her. She couldn't stand still and took half a step back.
The dagger in Wang Yiquan's hand suddenly pierced Bai Zhi's thigh.
Bai Zhi then jumped to the wall, seemingly exhausted of all her powers and unable to perform anything. Wang Yiquan said loudly, "Devil, die!" At the same time, dozens of golden blades appeared in front of him, with sharp edges. The whistling sound hit Bai Zhi.
