Chapter 42:   Arena   上

Alan and Lucy got a rare break. After the wolves retreated, they slept for a few hours until three in the afternoon. When he woke up, Allen saw Lucy resting on his lap. The girl slept peacefully, curled up like a little lion. This is really an apt adjective for Lucy, especially when it comes to her usual fangs and claws.

A few touches of sunlight fell on her gently, and quietly climbed onto her face as time passed. She frowned slightly, rubbed her small face vigorously, moved to a place out of the light, and continued to swim in her dreamland. I don't know what I was dreaming about, but occasionally a smile appeared on his face, but the smile disappeared in a flash and soon returned to peace.

This is a rare quiet time. Allen moved his arm to check his body. The trauma has stopped bleeding, the smaller wounds are covered with a layer of blood scabs, and the larger ones can't be violently moved. They make Lucy sew tight, but if the movement is too great, the wound will open a second time. Fortunately, these injuries fall on less important parts, so the impact is relatively small, which is also one of the benefits of selective injuries.

In terms of physical stamina, he recovered 60% to 70%, and even his source strength has recovered a lot. To Allen's surprise, Yuanli Vortex quietly added one, and now it has reached eight!

When instructing Allen, Hughton once popularized some simple cognition of the source force system. Before the formation of the gene circuit, the human body is like a piece of sponge, generating the source force vortex relatively faster. And for a talented person like Allen, the speed can only be described by leaps and bounds. But once the gene circuit is formed, the growth rate of the source force will slow down.

That's because the source power equivalent required for the first genetic circuit has basically reached the upper limit of the human body's capacity at this stage. If it grows rapidly as before, Yuan Li will burst his body. Therefore, the growth rate of Yuanli will slow down. At this time, the source power that is tempered will be naturally absorbed by the body and used to strengthen physical fitness, enhance the adaptability of the organs, and increase the body's upper limit of the source power.

So now, Allen is not overjoyed, not to mention that the life and death battle with the wolves earlier would stimulate the growth of the source force is also reasonable. He needs to add another source force vortex before he can hope to hit the first barrier. Thereby constructing a circuit, forming a mark. Only when you are promoted to become an engraver can you open the door to power and become what the Federation calls talent.

At that time, even in the army sequence of the Federation, it was possible to be a second lieutenant. Otherwise, before forming their own engraving, the source force is at best a first-class soldier, which is only slightly more advanced than cannon fodder.

"Ah, are you awake? Why don't you wake me up?" Lucy turned around and finally woke up. She yawned and said sleepily.

Allen shrugged and said nothing. Lucy asked again: "How is your injury?"

"It's better than I expected, thanks to you." Allen pointed his finger at a wound on his body and said, "Your stitching technique is very professional."

"Of course, this lady has systematically learned battlefield first aid techniques!" As soon as Lucy regained her spirit, she put on a complacent expression.

Allen became more and more interested in Lucy's identity. As far as he knew, a child who grew up on the surface rarely had the opportunity to learn about battlefield first aid. That is a real warfare subject. How can ordinary surface teenagers have the opportunity to learn this technology? A girl with excellent shooting skills and proficient in strategy and first aid in battlefield. Such a person's background is certainly not easy.

Shooting skills can be trained, but the other two things are not something you can learn.

Of course, if Lucy didn't say it, Ellen wouldn't ask. Everyone has their own secrets, and Allen is not stupid enough to break the casserole and ask the end.

Gulugulu...

A strange sound rang from Lucy’s belly, and Allen looked at her, and the latter flushed and said, "Why, I haven't eaten anything since last night. Running and fighting again. It’s normal to be hungry!"

"I didn't say anything." Allen shrugged and said, "We don't have anything else now. There is a lot of wolf meat. Let's roast a few hind legs and eat."

At the thought of Ellen's barbecue technique, Lucy immediately slandered, and kept beating her head like a chicken pecking at rice. Allen stood up on the wall, picked up Kuangtu and wanted to tear a few hind legs from the wolf carcass to serve as food. A faint sound was suddenly caught in his ears, and he looked up. The sunlight above shone through the gaps in the mountains, leaving mottled shadows on both sides of the rock walls.

In one of the shadows, something came out of the rock wall. It crawled down and left the shadow in a blink of an eye, exposing its shiny black shell to the sun. It was a scorpion, gently swiping with its two big claws as if it were awe-inspiring. Behind the flat body, the tail needles are raised high, which is what the scorpion looks like when fighting. More and more scorpions are coming out of the cracks in the stone, which is an unconventional thing.

Scorpions like shade. They should be hidden in a cool place during the day. They rarely get out of their nests and move under the sun like they do now. But from last night to now, nothing has been normal. Allen is almost certain that these scorpions are like those violent wolves, driven by something.

"It seems that our dinner won't be made." Allen said.

Lucy looked up, her face instantly turned ugly. The girl had a great sense of unchanging face even when she faced the violent wolf, but now she saw the dense scorpions, but her face changed drastically. It seems that the girl's nature is so, even a violent wolf can easily kill hundreds of such scorpions.

"Run, run," Lucy yelled, picking up things and ran out. There were still a few violent wolves stuck in the cracks of the mountain, and the two of them took a lot of effort to get out of it, but fortunately they did not catch up with the scorpions.

As soon as he got out of the cave, Allen felt his back chill. Looking back, on a boulder behind him, a violent wolf was basking in the sun. Seeing them coming out, she was looking at them with faint pupils that flickered like blue fire. The violent wolf stood up, shaking his whole body, and then wailing his neck, the wolf howling immediately reverberated in the mountains.

Allen whispered and pulled Lucy to continue another round of escape.

This time I ran straight from the afternoon to the evening, during which I took a short break near a stream and found the body of a teenager. He pulled out four or five magazines from his suitcase, all of which cost Lucy. Her bullets were used up in the battle in the cave. After that, the two crossed the river and were driven to a valley by wolves. After leaving the valley, Lucy saw a large lake from a distance.

The lake water glowed like fish scales under the moonlight. What was even more concerned was that there was a purple-blue energy shield in the center of the lake, and there was no idea what it was protecting.

At this time, the wolves behind him approached. Although the two knew that there were no tools, it would be useless to run to the lake, but they had to do so. But when they ran near the lake, the earth shook suddenly. The lake water churned, arousing large sprays. Just in front of the two Ellens, a chain bridge just rose from the lake, connecting the shore of the lake with the location of the energy shield in the center.

"What's going on?" Lucy asked in surprise.

"It won't be a good thing anyway, but we can't help it now!" Allen yelled, pulling her to run on the chain bridge.

The cable bridge was already swaying, and just as it rose from the lake, the bridge surface was wet. Rao was very responsive, and they almost slipped a few times when they ran. As for the violent wolves, the sense of balance is even worse. They rushed up to the bridge, either slipping or losing their balance and fell into the lake. Once you fall into the lake, you will see a large shadow in the lake, and then the lake will boil. The fallen violent wolf struggled desperately in the water, but there was still a lot of blood coming out.

Occasionally one or two shadows jumped onto the lake, and Alan could see it clearly under the moonlight. What is that huge fish head and mouth full of sharp teeth, not a bloodthirsty piranha?

The iron rope is difficult, and there are piranhas in the lake. But even so, more and more violent wolves ran up the cable bridge After Allen broke, Lucy took cover, the two cooperated with each other, and after fighting and retreating, they finally came to the floating island in the lake. . As soon as he jumped onto the land, Alan gave a cry, the lines on the knife body of Kuangtu lighted up, the energy sharp ability was activated, and a buzzing energy blade popped from the edge of the blade.

He waved the Kuangtu, and instantly cut the chain of the bridge. Then cut across the bridge slab, and immediately cut off the entire cable bridge. With a bang, the cable bridge was thrown into the lake, and hundreds of violent wolves on the bridge were thrown into the lake at the same time. The lake water immediately exploded, and the ferocious piranhas in the water immediately began to kill, causing the entire lake to glow with blood!

Allen took a breath at this moment and looked around. The floating islands in the lake are empty, with only a few coconut trees planted to meet the scene, not even shrubs. In the center is an energy shield. Looking through the blue-violet wall, you can see a square-shaped silver metal body inside. I don't know what it is for. At this moment, the sound of water rang again, but a group of ropes floated in several directions on the floating island.

"Isn't that Mike?" Lucy pointed towards the south shore of the lake.

Allen looked far away, and sure enough, on the other side of the cable bridge, Mike and a teenager ran up the cable bridge. Behind them is a group of venomous tarantulas! Tarantulas are also dangerous species of Tier 3, they chased the two teenagers and began to climb the cable bridge. It is also a general situation on other cable bridges, with some death ring players and various dangerous species chasing them.

"It seems this is our last arena." Allen said calmly.

The situation has become quite obvious. The committee used some special methods to rush all the young people scattered around to this place. Next, it is natural to want them to kill each other. However, only a week has passed since entering Yellowstone Park, and the death ring seems to have not yet come to an end. I don't know the purpose of the committee's arrangement this time.
