Chapter 2:

The huge mouth of the mutant monster opened with saliva, and countless transparent and sticky threads were pulled out.  However, the food he was looking forward to did not come as expected, instead, he lost his balance from the blow with all his strength.

      Under the shock, the strange beast vaguely aware of the opponent's movements suddenly became lightning fast, like a different person.  As if the embarrassment just now was just a boring game, playing hide and seek with yourself.  This seemingly unimpressive bipedal creature at first seems to have risen to several levels at once, and the energy fluctuations emanating from its body can actually affect its predatory instincts.

  It finally sensed that something was wrong, and the beast's instincts made it aware of danger.  However, its rudimentary brain was not enough to assist him in making the right choice.  Although it felt vaguely a bit unwell, it wasn't enough for it to rise to the fat in front of his mouth.

      But just as it used its tail to fend off the rapid twisting of its body and wanted to continue delivering a fatal blow, it felt the proud bony plate "armor" on its back unleash a collision with force.  huge, that's what.  The hard thing not only sliced ​​through its defenses, but even rushed into his back with a chill.  It didn't even have time to feel the pain, or even turn around, when suddenly its body seemed to lose control, inexplicably softened, and fell to the ground like a statue.

      In the limited mind of the strange beast, there were only unbelievable maddening emotions, before he could roar, his throat was cold, his windpipe was also pierced.  The steel dagger almost engulfed, not only piercing the opponent's throat, but also severing the mutated beast's brain stem.

      The world became quiet again, except for the pungent smell of the lakeside wind, and the cooperation of the cold wind, there was a little commotion.

      Tran Thien dropped her dagger, and involuntarily took two steps back, followed by stumbling to the ground.  The excessive use of strength had temporarily brought his body to the brink of collapse.  Right now, he barely has the strength to stand up straight, so he can only bend down to support his knees, trying his best not to fall.  It's just that the limbs are shaking non-stop, even this movement is shaking, as if about to faint for a moment.

      The original tight cuffs were also loose and wrinkled like a deflated balloon, dense muscles like ephemerals, coming and going without a trace, making people rub their eyes to want to see, open again.  out but only suspected that it was an illusion.

      Huh... He let out a long breath, and glanced sideways at the giant trophy lying on the ground from the corner of his eye.

      Hehe, it turned out that he was too arrogant.

     "Hey buddy, it's okay!"

      Just when Tran Thien's spirit was almost completely relaxed, a slightly sharp voice came from a poplar forest not far away.  The body, which was already relaxed due to loss of strength instinctively tensed, immediately straightened up, warily turning its head to look in the direction of the sound.

      He saw a man in a ponytail, mustache, overalls and leather jacket from behind an old poplar tree being hugged by two people.  hesitant.  When Tran Thien could see the face of the person coming, the corners of his mouth retracted, he did not feel the joy of meeting his teammates at all, instead, he became wary.  .

      The man quickly approached, smiling hippie face, looking very polished with his hairstyle and beard.

    Tran Thien turned her head away and covered the distaste in her eyes with broken glasses.  After a fierce battle, he was clearly tired of talking, the man with the ponytail approached but continued to talk nonsense, evidently without any self-discipline.

      "Huh? Why is there a mutant monster here? It's so weird!"  The ponytail man spoke strangely, but in action, he circled the giant corpse on the ground, staring intently at the mutant monster with a huge head, with eyes like lightning.  X, almost through its head.

  Calling a safe area is just an artificial division according to the surrounding circumstances, nothing is absolute.  Although the location of this base is relatively safe, it is inevitable that sometimes strange beasts roam around.

      The ponytail man was a sentient being, and his keen intuition had told him that a crystal nucleus had evolved in the mutated monster's body.  And this monster with a crystal nucleus had become a corpse that could no longer resist, and it was still lying at his feet.

      Natural mineral energy has been depleted for hundreds of years, and currently energy that can effectively transform humans is rare, but the mutant monster crystal nucleus offers new abilities, which  comparable to nuclear energy after transformation.  Even the most elementary white crystal core is precious for such a small base.  In fact, he was not far from Tran Thien, almost ran to the banyan forest when he heard the whistle, but did not dare to appear because of the danger, until Tran Thien killed the mutant beast that he gave up.  his strength that he shamelessly ran out to try a piece of cake.  Although he is nominally the captain in charge of the collection, in reality he is the base leader who sees him clearly and makes him a liaison and supervisor based on the principle of utilizing  waste.

  In the apocalypse, ability is power, the strong have absolute space to survive, the others can only stay warm and look for opportunities in the rift.  A man with a ponytail couldn't go hunting without the ability to fight, his life was only slightly better than that of a novice at the base.

      This guy always likes to take advantage of newcomers, seeing that Tran Thien doesn't even have the strength to deal with him, he feels more confident.  He hurriedly used his ability to confirm the energy fluctuations on the mutant beast, and pretended to pull out the dagger stuck into the corpse.  Unexpectedly, with a little force, I heard a crunching sound, and the steel dagger handle and blade were cut in half and completely broken.

      The man with the ponytail looked at the torn pieces in his hand with a complicated expression, he neither threw it away nor gave it away, he could only smile shyly: "Tran Thien, I didn't expect you to look so gentle,  and your hands are strong. Look at this filth with rough skin and thick flesh, and you literally killed it with this filth with your soft feet."

      "Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, you're tired, I'll help you back later."  The man with the ponytail looked at Tran Thien smiling, his eyes darting around his waist, no matter how serious his expression was.  Originally, Tran Thien pursed her lips and didn't want to speak, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but add a sentence: "I can go by myself."

      Seeing that the other party was obviously rejecting him, the man with the ponytail didn't care, pretending to calmly check: "Do you have the ability to evolve, kid?"

      Tran Thien's mouth had a small self-deprecating smile: "How can it be so easy, I can kill it because of this.  Something is already injured.  "Only now did he raise his head and look at the man with the ponytail with calm eyes," If not, now I will have to ask you to come and collect the body for me.  "His face was clearly a lazy smile that had relaxed after the disaster, but the man with the ponytail felt chills behind his back. The man with the ponytail understood that his opponent was watching.  Give him a reason for being "late".

      But even if he knew what to do, in the situation just now, would someone else jump out to save him?  Furthermore, the man wearing a ponytail didn't help much either.  Both are well aware of this, and Tran Thien herself is not in the mood to care about it.

  After a long time, Tran Thien said with a tired face: "Brother, I need to rest because I used my powers too much, and I really don't have the strength to dig out the crystal bones."  I ask you to do it for me, I only need to exchange one dagger for the resource to harvest, the next rest is yours.  "Now it's time for public duties, logically speaking, all the harvests need to be delivered to the facility, and the facility's leaders manage the "on-demand distribution." But they all understood if  It really has nothing to do with them really.

      Tran Thien's proposal seems to be a compromise, but also an impotent move, in that one sentence the responsibility of distributing the mutant summoned beast's crystals is assigned to the man in charge of "surveillance".

      The man in a ponytail saw that the other person was very familiar, and immediately smiled: "Tran Thien, don't worry, although there are regulations in the base, we also need to pay attention to the subtleties of the individual.  man, no matter who we're with," he said as he took off his boots.  The dagger in the box was delivered to Tran Thien." You use this first, I'll find a way to exchange it for you shortly. "After saying that, he threw the dagger in the holster into Tran Thien's hand, and was grabbed by the way.  take.  He had seen long ago that although this child was always making a mess of himself, she was actually a beautiful woman with fair and delicate skin.  Although at first he did not like the hobbies of men, but with limited conditions, he did not know how long it was, gradually he saw people like Tran Thien becoming more and more beautiful.

     Tran Thien was completely disgusted with this unexpected pickled pig hand dish, but he pretended to know nothing.

      "Thank you very much then."  He quickly took the dagger and said, "Let's dig out the crystal nucleus first, we'll be back soon."

      "Hey, wait."  His temper is miserable, but because Tran Thien kill mutants alone, he doesn't dare to be too obvious.

  Tran Thien looked at the back of the other person, his face increasingly gloomy.  He knows very well that the people here don't have much morals, and there are no major ground rules in their behavior.  The place they were staying was, to put it mildly, a base, but it was actually like a "nest" for a group of outlaws.  Currently, there is only one BETA woman in this base, the woman is the boss of the base, the others have not even had a chance to take a second look.  They are a rough group of people, with no concept of good or evil, which will inevitably be distorted in the long run, and some special interests are also derived from it, many people are paired, and they are partners when  they go on a mission.  However, for Tran Thien, these are all things that he cannot avoid.
