Star Sea Throne

Chapter 5. Evolve! Awakening Technique

Xu Youran and Dongfang Bai headed all the way towards the main city, finding some mutant beasts to practice along the way, and occasionally replenishing supplies when they encountered some food stores.

In the process of killing the mutant beast, the two slowly summed up some patterns.

In areas where humans originally lived, there were generally not many mutant beasts in communities, schools, and hospitals, and they were weak.

The closer you get to the wilderness, the more mutant beasts there are, the more types there are, and the strength is also extremely strong.

The two of them roughly analyzed the reason, it may be the original human settlement, with the disappearance of a large number of humans, the mutant beast has lost its main food source.

There are many kinds of food in the wilderness, there is no meat or plant food to eat, and many mutant beasts were omnivorous animals before mutation.

As they consciously approached the wilderness and farmland to kill more mutant beasts, they also discovered some limitations of their awakening skills.

A large group of mutant voles taught them a lesson, Xu Youran's limited shield area was a big flaw, when encountering too many mutant beasts, it usually could not provide all-round protection.

His earth thorns will appear at most three at the same time, and when he summons the fourth, the first one will disappear.

The shortcomings of Dongfang Bai's air grenades are not powerful are also revealed, and the number cannot exceed ten at the same time.

However, Dongfang Bai's strong hand-to-hand combat skills and sharp palm sword barely made up for this defect, and her skin that could hardly be harmed also added a guarantee to her safety.

On top of that, they discovered that the awakening technique consumed not physical strength but mental power.

If you use awakening techniques for a long time or frequently, you will experience severe pain in the brain and dizziness.

This large group of voles caused great trouble to the two of them, and one of the voles in the group was particularly huge, with a faint bronze vole leader shining all over his body, which was particularly fierce.

The huge teeth of the big vole flashed with a bronze light, not only could Xu Youran's thrust not hurt it, but it even bit Xu Youran's shield.

The two fought and fled, and with more and more tacit cooperation, they barely escaped from the living range of the group of voles.

Hiding on the rooftop of the 30th floor of a residential building, the two took a short rest.

Dongfang Bai was still caught by the vole several times under Xu Youran's strong protection, but he didn't even scratch his skin. Xu Youran was not so lucky, in order to protect Dongfang Bai more, he was bitten by a vole a few times.

Because he had been bitten by a rat before, he was also infected with rabies. After the outbreak of rabies, Xu Youran mastered the awakening technique, so he didn't care too much.

But it turned out that he was too young and naïve, he overestimated his resistance to the virus, or his viral gravitational physique was too strong.

At nightfall, when the two were about to find a place to rest that night, his rabies flared up again.

This time, because he was prepared, he didn't bite the slippers again, but a ball of cotton cloth.

The severe pain was worse than the first outbreak of rabies, and Xu Youran, who was bound by Dongfang Bai's limbs, was still silently using nature to resist the pain.

Dongfang Bai could only guard him nervously, but there was nothing he could do.

At the moment when Xu Youran was about to be knocked down by the pain and completely coma and lose consciousness, it was naturally completed through the ninth turn, and it seemed that countless indescribable substances in his body were absorbed into the dantian.

Xu Youran only felt relaxed all over, sweating profusely, and let out a sigh.

He carried another virus outbreak, and each time the virus outbreak was more and more painful, making him tremble all over when he thought about it.

Dongfang Bai skillfully helped him untie the bundles, found a wet towel to help him wipe the sweat from his face.

He said with some distress: "How do you feel now?" Carried it over? ”

Xu Youran slowed down for a while and replied, "It should have been carried over, it is much more painful than the last time." Maybe it's because I was bitten again, it seems that as long as I am hurt by the mutant beast in the future, I will get sick again, my physique is a bit pitted. ”

Dongfang Bai helped him up and said, "Why don't we stay in this building tonight and find an empty room to rest for the night." ”

After carrying the onset of the disease, Xu Youran quickly recovered to normal, he let go of Dongfang Bai's hand and stood there pondering for a while.

"I seem to have a new feeling, similar to the previous feeling, but slightly different."

"What do you mean? Have you awakened new skills again?" Dongfang Bai was a little surprised.

"It's not a new skill, it's still the same feeling as before. It's just a stronger sense of control, as if it's a stronger sense of control over matters like earth. ”

Xu Youran said and looked at his palm, the refreshing autumn evening breeze blew on their clothes, and Xu Youran's palm was slender and powerful under the cold moonlight.

"Ugh" He raised his left hand, and a large bronze shield flashed in his hand. "Ugh, bang, bang" He raised his right hand, and three bronze thrusts appeared on the wall on the side.

Xu Youran looked left and right at the big shield and the thrusts on the wall, his big shields and thrusts were all black colors before, but now they have turned into shiny bronze.

"This is evolution?" He was a little puzzled, because this was a phenomenon that had never appeared in the known human world.

He used to think that he had been infected with all the viruses, so he could theoretically comprehend all the awakening techniques.

But the situation that appeared now was completely beyond his expectations, infected with the same virus and attacked the same disease, his awakening skills could actually evolve. Does that mean that as long as he keeps being infected with the same virus and developing the same disease, his awakening skills can continue to evolve? Is there an end to this evolution?

He waved his shield, and the weight did not change. He smashed the big shield into a piece of cement again, and with a "bang", the cement block smashed to pieces, and the shield was only a little scratched. It seems that the sturdiness should have been strengthened a lot.

His bronze thrust should also have been greatly strengthened, and his attack power should be taken to a higher level.

This evolution made him think a lot. Normal humans usually develop antibodies and immunity to the same virus, which means that people who have been infected with the pneumonia virus will hardly be infected with the pneumonia virus again.

Why can I be infected with the rabies virus continuously? Or is it that now the viruses have mutated and everyone can be infected with the same virus? Why does being infected with the same virus lead to the evolution of awakening skills?

With countless mysteries in his heart, he sighed silently. "Why is my system not having a manual? I have to figure everything out by myself. ”

He looked at Dongfang Bai on the side and said, "I can be infected with the same virus, and my awakening skills can still evolve, do you find it strange?" ”

"I wouldn't be surprised that the world has become the way it is now. Besides, you are just stronger, and our chances of survival are higher, which is a good thing. ”

Dongfang Bai is a very sensible, sensible, and considerate girl. Sometimes Xu Youran even felt that her emotional intelligence was higher than that of everyone she knew.

"There are some people in this world who are born with immunity, but there has never been a person with a deficiency of innate immunity like me. Those patients have deficient immunity, and I have no immunity at all." Speaking of this, Xu Youran smiled a little self-deprecatingly.

"You say, if you are pecked by a pigeon again and infected with the pneumonia virus, will your awakening skills also change?" Xu Youran had some questions.

Dongfang Bai thought for a moment, "I guess first of all it should be difficult for me to get infected again, because I may already have antibodies to the virus." Then there is the onset of illness when infected, which is very painful. Although I can bear it, it may not necessarily evolve. ”

The two went downstairs while chatting, found a random household, broke the door lock and entered the room.

This is an ordinary two-bedroom house, and when the virus broke out, there was no one at home, so there was nothing dirty in the room except dust.

The two of them cleaned briefly, two bedrooms, exactly one for each person. The previous owner seemed to be a couple, and there were clean clothes in the cabinet.

The water heater in the bathroom can still take a bath, and the most surprising thing is that the refrigerator has been working, and they found a few bottles of Brave World Beer in the refrigerator.

The two of them, who hadn't washed up for several days, quickly started changing shifts to clean. took a shower and wiped their bodies clean.

Xu Youran quietly looked at herself in the mirror, her once weak body had slowly begun to get stronger, although she was still very thin, but her strong muscle lines were already faintly visible.

The thin face split by a knife and axe is not much worse than those popular traffic students. The eyebrows are like two sharp swords, flying diagonally into the temples, and the eyes as deep as the starry sky are definitely a great killer to seduce women.

He had just cut off his hair that hadn't been trimmed for more than a year, shaved off his messy beard, and had a short round hairstyle, which made him look particularly heroic.

While putting on the clothes of the male owner of the house, he smiled at the mirror and said, "Congratulations, young man, you are still alive!" ”

When he opened the bathroom door and walked out, Dongfang Bai, who was sitting on the sofa in a daze, was stunned.

This year, everyone has been busy running for their lives, and it is rare to be able to take a safe bath, let alone embellish their personal image.

As soon as Xu Youran, who was clean up refreshingly and handsomely, walked out of the bathroom, Dongfang Bai's face turned slightly red.

Fortunately, they were afraid of attracting mutant beasts and did not turn on the lights in the living room, and they couldn't see Dongfang Bai's slightly red face in the dark.

In order to hide her embarrassment, she grabbed the hostess's clothes on the sofa and rushed into the bathroom.

Listening to the sound of shower water coming from the bathroom, Xu Youran took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator and opened it, took a sip of cold courage.

"Huh" felt a chill in his heart, which made him exhale gently.

A year ago, Xu Youran was a sick seedling, and his family had no financial resources, so it was already a high climb to find a girlfriend like Xu Xin.

Dongfang Bai, a stunner at the level of a school flower, didn't dare to be delusional.

But now under this beautiful moonlight, there is a little dim light in the bathroom, and such a beauty is bathing.

Xu Youran only felt peaceful and comfortable in his heart, as if he was waiting for his wife to take a bath, slowly drinking beer.
