The new era strikes

Chapter 201 Mutant Gecko
The buildings in this old community are not high, most of them are around ten floors, and there is a green belt in the middle of every two or three buildings, and Lu Tian is only in one of the small areas now.

There are many zombies in this densely populated place, but they are cleverly separated, which is very suitable for single-person hunting like Lu Tian.

Lu Tian glanced at one of the buildings. Like the other old buildings, it looked extremely messy. The rusty iron nets on the windows were covered with sundries, clothes and broken furniture. There were weeds and saplings more than half a meter high, some of which were still green, as if these old buildings were covered with mottled clothes.

There are also many zombies in the building, all of which were infected by the original residents. The building Lu Tian chose is also the most among them. According to his spiritual power, there are at least fifty or sixty zombies, which is worth going up.

As soon as he stepped up the stairs, a zombie with rotten eyes rushed out, and was dealt with by Lu Tian twice.

The previous situation made Lu Tian change his strategy. Instead of making another stab after killing, it is better to use two stabs directly, one to kill and one to destroy the traces, so as to avoid the possibility of being discovered from a distance when deliberately smashing the crystal nucleus.

Doing this, even if people see it with a telescope, they will only think that he has encountered too many zombies, and it is too late to get the crystal nucleus.

He walked in the damp and dark corridor, his footsteps were very clear, and he encountered spider webs from time to time, and he destroyed them with a knife in advance.

Especially some big spiders were killed by him with a single knife. Many of these spiders affected by vitality mutated into poisonous glands. Usually, many corpse hunters did not fall into the hands of zombies, but died under the mouths of these little insects. .

Another short zombie crawled out, judging from its figure, it turned out to be a child.

Without mercy, Lu Tian still killed it with a knife. When the biochemical crisis happened, the old, weak, sick and disabled people had the highest mortality rate. Those who survived were mostly strong people who could run faster than zombies and their companions.

The knife was not stained with blood, and his feet did not stop. Lu Tian stepped on the aisle full of dust and debris, killing the zombies that appeared from time to time.

"Xiaoqi, how could this zombie sense me when I didn't make a sound?"

Lu Tian is still very confident about the mental shield on the third layer of the "Spiritual Training Method". He released it to form a special energy film, which can definitely cover up his own smell, and the hearing of zombies is similar to that of humans. , when there is no power, no voice, and no smell of oneself, what did you rely on to determine your position and identity at that time?
Maybe zombies have abilities that humans haven't discovered, which is a bit troublesome.

"Master, it's thermal induction. Although the master has covered up his breath, the infrared rays coming from him are very strong, and some of it still leaks out. After being sensed by the zombies, it is naturally noticed and used as food."

Lu Tian's face changed. It's no wonder that this ability has not been discovered. Usually when zombies and humans meet, the location can be determined just by smell and sound, so this deeper ability has not been discovered.

Maybe those scientists who study zombies have discovered it and feel that there is nothing special for the time being, or they don’t want to announce it, so ordinary people don’t know that zombies still have this ability, so they always think it’s because of the smell and sound.

"but."

Xiao Qi added, "This ability is only the general group characteristic of the virus, not the original function of its host, so it is not very strong. According to Xiao Qi's measurement just now, the thermal sensing range is mostly 20 meters. Maybe advanced zombies will Increase some, but as long as it leaves a certain range, this ability will be useless."

"And this ability is also affected by the surrounding environment. If the temperature is too high, close to the body temperature, it will still be difficult to function, but it is winter now, so it has no effect."

It's no wonder that the zombie was able to accurately charge towards him when he kept still just now, and it actually has this kind of function similar to an infrared device.

Fortunately, this ability is relatively useless. Most people reveal their position just by smell and sound.

However, it also shows that my mental power is still unable to completely shield infrared rays, and I don't know if it can be done by increasing the quality of mental power.

Lu Tian lowered his head and looked at his body. He happened to be in a rather dark place at this time. If he observed carefully, he would find that there was a very faint light on the surface of Lu Tian's body, forming a layer thinner than a hair. A lot of transparent energy films, this is Lu Tian's usage of the spiritual cover in "Spiritual Forging Method".

Originally, the spirit shield was used to protect the energy shield of the sea of ​​consciousness, but it was simply changed by him to cover up his own breath. Now it is only a preliminary stage, and he can already cover up all his own smells. Of course, he can't completely cover up the energy fluctuations on his body .

However, Lu Tian feels that if he continues to improve, he should be able to achieve the desired effect.

"Ow~"

Three zombies ran out from the corner one after another. Lu Tian's eyes were calm, and he rushed directly into the circle of zombies. He crossed each zombie with Wuhuang in his hand, stomped hard, and left the spot, leaving Debris all over the floor.

Suddenly the air on his face tightened, Lu Tian kicked the wall on the right, his upper body hurriedly leaned back, avoiding the lightning-fast red line.

The sound of piercing the air then rang in Lu Tian's ears, indicating that the speed of this blow had exceeded the speed of sound.

Lu Tian stepped back three meters and looked up solemnly.

In some dim light, there seemed to be nothing but dusty concrete walls.

But under Lu Tian's careful induction, there is definitely a creature.

"A mutated creature that can be invisible, can barely avoid my mental power, it should be something like a chameleon."

While thinking secretly, Lu Tian took a few steps back. This creature almost sneaked up on him. If he hadn't discovered it when it attacked, it might have succeeded.

It was almost invisible to the naked eye, and Lu Tian strengthened his mental power, and finally figured out this thing.

Some are like geckos, but they are much bigger than geckos, probably as big as cats, and they are climbing on the wall. Their bodies are flat, and the color of their appearance is exactly the same as that of the cement wall, making them perfectly hidden.

What surprised Lu Tian the most was that this mutated gecko also had the ability to evade its mental power. Although it was not as powerful as the mutated black snake that he encountered in the Amazon at that time, but with its camouflage ability, its sneak attack ability was not weak.

After fully releasing the mental power that can be used, Lu Tian can already see it completely, and now he is ready to kill it.

"Sigh~"

The mutated gecko had almost no eyes. It quickly climbed close to Lu Tian on the wall, then lifted its head slightly, and directly popped a half-foot-long tongue from its mouth, breaking through the air in an instant, and flew towards Lu Tian.

Lu Tian had been prepared for a long time, he turned his footsteps to avoid the blow, and Wu Huang slashed at the red tongue.

It was like chopping on cotton, but Wu Huang couldn't cut off his tongue immediately, Lu Tian used force, and the speed of the knife was a little faster, trying to keep the tongue.

But the mutated gecko seemed to know Lu Tian's intentions, and turned its tongue flexibly, trying to avoid the blade.

"Don't think about it!"

Lu Tian shouted loudly and used all his strength.

"Sigh~"

The mutated gecko let out a somewhat painful neigh, and still had a two-inch long tongue cut off by Lu Tian, ​​leaving a pool of bright red blood and a small strip of flesh two fingers thick on the ground.

After realizing the danger, his nature of fear of death was aroused, he turned around and ran away.

Its speed is like a ghost, but it will disappear in the blink of an eye, how can Lu Tian make it come true, with a flick of his arm, Wuhuang turns into a ghostly light, and directly inserts it.

Zheng~
With a buzzing sound, Wuhuang directly stuck the mutated gecko into the wall, and blood flowed out along the wall, making it neigh more painfully, with a touch of fear.

"Hmph, I hate sneak attacks the most."

Lu Tian fearfully looked at the mutated gecko that was nailed more than ten meters away, and quickly walked over, planning to make one last blow to end this creature.

"Hiss, hiss~"

The mutated gecko's voice became more urgent, and when Lu Tian was two meters away from it, it broke free one by one, tore its body apart, and ran away at a faster speed.

Looking at the bloodstains on the wall, Lu Tian couldn't help being stunned.

"It's really a gecko, and the method of escape has not changed."

"It's just that it's a bit cruel, tearing my body in half."

At this time, what was nailed by the knife happened to be a foot-long tail, with flesh and blood the size of a palm on it, dripping with blood.

Lu Tian pulled out the knife and carefully looked at the tail left behind.

It's a bit cold to start with, it's covered with gray and delicate scales, it feels very soft when squeezed, especially the structure of these scales can refract light, and can isolate a certain amount of energy, no wonder there is such an excellent camouflage ability.

Throwing the tail into the Primordial Vast Realm, this kind of creature is a good research material, he doesn't need it, but it can be given to those who need it, and it probably contains a lot of value.

Walking along the bloodstain for tens of meters, more than a dozen zombies were killed, but at the last window, the bloodstain was broken.

"It seems that this place has healed the wound, I don't know when the tail will grow again."

Just now from the left tail, Lu Tian felt that its cells are extremely active and should be able to quickly achieve the effect of stopping bleeding, so it is normal for the blood to disappear here.

Lu Tian could only give up the idea of ​​continuing to chase and kill. This mutant gecko was not much slower than him, and it was all about running for its life. Without clues, it didn't know where it was going at this time.

"Oh, it's really troublesome if you can't fully use your energy!"

Lu Tian muttered, if his mental power had not been sealed, with his mental power that could cover a range of hundreds of meters, he would never let him escape.

"I don't know how long it will take for this space fragment to be refined. It's really frustrating."

Lu Tian secretly complained that at that time, the existence sealed the space fragments into his dantian, which required true energy and most of the spiritual power to maintain the formation, which made him completely lose the right to use martial arts and [-]% of the spiritual power.

But he drew a big cake for him, a top-level space debris, but it couldn't be used for a short time, and he was brought into the pit.

He regretted it a little now, not because he regretted sealing the space debris, but because he didn't resist at that time.

I don't know if resistance is useful?
Lu Tian thought secretly.
