Two men and four women—this is the group of six savage survivors.
At 8 p.m., they returned to the station safely, where the women had already prepared the meal and were about to eat.
Su Xi screamed and ran out of the car, insisting on taking a shower. The smell from the bones in her pelvis was just too awful. They only discovered it later. After all, the bones had been there for so many years, and the surrounding soil had been polluted, leaving no grass to grow.
After a quick shower, everyone sat under the canopy and lit a campfire. Wolves and dogs roamed nearby, but no predators, poisonous insects, snakes, or ants dared to approach.
Perhaps due to changes in the environment, these wolfhounds have also undergone certain changes. The most significant change is in their physical bodies.
Although the oxygen content in the meditation world is not as high as on Earth today, there are some special factors in the air that, over time, will inevitably cause some subtle changes.
During the meal, Lu Wuyai brought out his spoils.
The moment the black bag was opened, everyone's eyes lit up, and Professor Wu Wei and several other professors curiously picked it up. They had heard before that barbarians were changed, or rather, evolved, because of it.
“Good stuff,” Wu Wei said, adding that she could even feel a special energy contained within it.
"However, it's hard to say whether there will be any side effects."
At the very least, the barbarians don't have any particularly obvious features.
That night, in the tent, Wu Wei placed some of the crystals into a light collector. This device is a highly efficient filter; it can potentially absorb substances within the crystals, ultimately converting them into high-purity optical fibers.
And so, the second day arrived.
Originally, Lu Wuyai planned to continue searching for a suitable place to stay, but Wu Wei detained him when he was about to leave. He had heard that the crystal he brought last night had changed.
In the laboratory, the crystals on the laser have disappeared, replaced by a shallow cup of liquid.
"This thing is too rare to test."
"How about you just take it and drink it directly?"
Looking at Wu Wei's serious expression, Lu Wuyai wondered if he had misheard.
But in the end, Lu Wuyai still drank all the liquid in the cup. After all, he had seen the savage after taking the crystal last night, and so far, he had not shown any symptoms of discomfort.
Actually, starting yesterday, besides worrying about the side effects of this crystal, Lu Wuyai really wanted to try it.
Guru.
As he drank the liquid, Lu Wuyai felt a chill run through his body.
Afterwards, he felt itchy all over, but fortunately, he had already gone through a lot of mental torment, so this little difficulty was nothing.
But two hours later, with red eyes, Lu Wuyai tore off the last piece of human skin from his body, his whole body covered in blood.
Only he and Wu Wei were in the lab. The latter swallowed hard. The scene was already frightening enough.
At this moment, not a single piece of human skin on Lu Wuyai's body was intact; most of it was scratched. But even so, he still maintained the most basic level of consciousness.
“It’s alright.” Wu Wei couldn’t help but ask again.
"It's alright." Lu Wuyai's voice sounded calm, as if everything was truly wonderful.
In fact, compared to everything he went through during his previous transformations, he could indeed overcome this trauma, but his appearance was indeed very unacceptable.
"Don't worry, it's just a new skin," Lu Wuyai said with a smile. However, this scene terrified Wu Wei, especially when the other man spoke, a bloody trail and a piece of human skin fell to the ground.
If it weren't for Wu Wei's age, she would definitely have screamed.
Another half hour passed, and Lu Wuyai sat on the bed wrapped in bandages, while Wu Wei continued to measure his body with the instrument.
"I feel like I've changed a lot," Lu Wuyai said. Although his appearance was temporarily altered, the changes in his body were very obvious. It should be seen as a purification of his bone marrow and bones, or even more intense.
"It's hard to say whether there will be any long-term effects," Wu Wei said.
However, Lu Wuyai felt great, and the problem of aftereffects should no longer exist.
Then, another question came to mind.
"How many crystals did I use to complete this transformation?"
Wu Wei thought for a moment and said, "Eight, but that's probably too many."
“That’s a bit too much.” Lu Wuyai remembered correctly. This harvest was only about thirty-five, and he only used a quarter of it.
The woman who went out that day did not return, but through the walkie-talkie, it was learned that she had not gone far.
"Lu Wuyai, go to sleep early, and remember to cover Rou Rou and the others with blankets."
Su Xi's voice came from the machine.
You can only understand that feeling when you become a parent yourself.
Lu Wuyai also cautioned the women going out to be careful. Although no evil items had been found in the meditation world yet, it was still relatively unfamiliar and would require more time to explore.
But Lu Wuyai didn't rest that night. After putting the three little ones to sleep, he went to the laboratory again.
This time, besides Wu Wei, Yu Xin was waiting for him.
“Let’s begin,” Zhang Qing said.
Twelve hours have passed, and Lu Wuyai's body has not changed, but some routine examinations still need to continue.
But soon, Yuxin complained, "Lu Wuyai, your skin is harder than bulletproof glass."
"..." Lu Wuyai
It must be said that as Lu Wuyai continued to evolve, his physical structure became completely incompatible with that of ordinary humans.
Aside from the skin, the most obvious difference is the hair.
Her seemingly soft, black hair was so fine that even scissors couldn't cut it, and her entire body was covered in pores. Even under a magnifying glass, you couldn't find a single one.
As for Lu Wuyai, his theory of evolution was always ahead of his group, and there was nothing for them to learn from.
For two whole hours, Wu Wei and Yu Xin conducted a comprehensive assessment of Lu Wuyuan's body, but this was not the final result.
The blood analysis report required them to stay up all night to study it.
Soon after, Lu Wuyai returned to the tent and found the three little ones still sleeping peacefully, undisturbed by the chirping of insects and birds nearby.
"It's still a bit too noisy here." Lu Wuyai lay on the bed, thinking about where to find a suitable and quiet place.
Early the next morning, Lu Wuyai was pulled out of the tent by Wu Wei, his face showing a hint of excitement.
"What's wrong?" Lu Wuyai couldn't help but ask.
"Your blood test results are in."
"Come out," Lu Wuyai said subconsciously, but judging from Wu Wei's excited appearance, she didn't seem like a highly respected old professor at all.
"You have no idea what's happening to your blood."
Inside the lab, the other three professors had been waiting for a long time. They continued discussing the blood test results.
At this point, Lu Wuyai probably realized that something was wrong.
At this point, upon seeing Lu Wuyai appear, Professor Situ said directly, "Lu Wuyai, the blood in your body may be the key to saving Blue Star."
"To be precise, this is key to combating the conjunctivitis virus."
Originally, this was just an ordinary blood report, but Yuxin had a sudden inspiration. She took a blood sample and dripped it into the infected person's blood, discovering a shocking scene.
The components in Lu Wuyai's blood can actually kill all the red inflammatory viruses.
"I have never seen such violent blood composition. It was like cannons and rifles, leaving no room for resistance."
"Yes, if it had been discovered earlier, perhaps the situation on Earth would be different."
"Perhaps." Wu Wei shook her head. Lu Wuyai's blood probably didn't have that effect at that time.
Earth has long since collapsed, making it impossible to use Lu Wuyai's blood to create effective drugs. Moreover, it's not just infected people; monsters and super-animals are the main problem.
"However, your blood can produce antivenom, so that we can develop immunity to any future infections or poisonous plants and animals."
Hearing this, Lu Wuyai breathed a slight sigh of relief.
For some reason, Lu Wuyai felt guilty when he heard that his blood could fight against infected people.
“If everything is alright, I’ll go find Yu Li and the others,” Lu Wuyai said.
They even spoke on the phone this morning. If Wu Wei hadn't pulled him into the lab, he would already be on his way.
It seems that Youli and the others have found a more suitable place.
Around noon, Lu Wuyai swiftly traversed the forest, feeling the refreshing air rushing towards him, and an incomparably comfortable sensation washed over his entire body once again.
Around 1 p.m., Lu Wuyai stopped, took out his walkie-talkie, and asked Su Xi for her exact location.
Can you see a clump of brown bushes?
"All right."
“Go a little to the left, there’s a mountain path there.”
Following the instructions, Lu Wuyai walked forward and indeed saw a hidden path in the woods. However, the ground was covered with excrement, and it was all from the same creature.
As he walked along the mountain path, Lu Wuyai's gaze suddenly darkened. A dense forest appeared before him, pitch black and extremely eerie.
Strangely, the air here is very fresh, without the dampness and grassy smell that you'd expect in a dark forest.
Since he didn't see the woman, Lu Wuyai continued walking forward for a while.
Ten minutes later, Lu Wuyai found himself in a bright and clear place. This place used to be an empty valley, and the activity area was very large, at least half the size of a football field.
At this moment, the women were clearing weeds in the valley when a trickle of water appeared on the nearby rock face, flowing down the ground and disappearing at Lu Wuyai's feet.
"Lu Wuyai, come and help me!" Su Xi said excitedly.
Such secluded places are rare.
Just then, Lu Wuyai arrived. After looking around, he thought to himself, "This place is indeed quite nice."
However, he soon stood on the valley floor and looked north into the valley.
"So it's a cliff." Lu Wuyai looked down at the ground. He hadn't expected the terrain here to be so high. In the distance, the mountains rose and fell, and a thick river flowed down, nourishing the birds and beasts in this forest.
Without anyone noticing, Gu Yuxin found herself standing beside Lu Wuyai. Looking at the picturesque scene before him, he couldn't help but let out a long, mournful cry.
yes.
After venting my recent frustrations, all my negative emotions seem to have been swept away.
"Be careful," Lu Wuyai said.
Beneath their feet were not steep cliffs, but a dense forest. With the naked eye, you could see a large number of animals moving among them, many of which were species you had never seen before.
Like a leopard with fleshy wings that can fly through the air, and a three-headed venomous snake that coils in the forest, it is discovered piece by piece. It doesn't look like a deformed product.
"Why haven't we seen so many creatures before?" Gu Yuxin sighed.
Lu Wuyai snorted: "It's not that we haven't seen this many before, but the animals we saw in the meditation world were relatively scattered."
It is said that water is the source of all things. This river is so vast, who knows how many lives it has nurtured.
Standing on the cliff, Lu Wuyai looked at the rolling mountains in the distance and realized how vast the land beneath his feet was.
"Perhaps there is a vast land here waiting for us to explore and develop."
Soon, Lu Wuyai turned back and entered the valley. No matter what the future held, this valley would be their new home.
This place is very secluded. If Lu Wuyai hadn't followed Yuli's instructions, it would have been almost impossible to find the mountain path, then traverse the dense forest, and reach this valley.
“However, it’s at least 50 kilometers from here to where we were before,” Lu Wuyai thought to himself, realizing that transporting supplies would be a huge hassle.
Of course, any journey is worthwhile compared to finding such a place.
As for the droppings on the mountain road, they are said to have been left by a group of wild boars that frequent the area.
That day, after everyone finished cleaning up the trash in the valley, they immediately returned to the station and personally told the others the news.
“Then you’d better hurry,” Wu Wei said, explaining that there are more and more animals in the forest because many animals are preparing to hibernate after autumn.
Everyone nodded, and after discussion, they decided to stay up all night loading supplies.
But no one expected that Jin Xilu, Gu Yuxin and Lin Xiaoxiao, three pregnant women, would give birth at the same time that night.
The transfer at the station had to be suspended, and everyone else was busy that night.
The lab only had one semi-automatic operating table, and this machine was required to perform delivery procedures for three pregnant women in one night. Wu Wei and the others faced a huge problem.
Fortunately, it wasn't a pitch-black midnight. When dawn broke, the three clean babies were basking in the sun, all neatly arranged.
Lu Wuyai and Xiaodong sat not far away, panting heavily. They vividly recalled what had happened that night and secretly vowed never to see him again in their lives.
"Hey, hey," Lu Wuyai glanced at him, and could roughly understand the other's feelings at this moment.
Are you happy?
Upon hearing this, Xiao Dong raised his head, looked at Lu Wuyai, and nodded twice.
"Then take good care of her."
Lin Xiaoxiao gave birth to a daughter for Xiaodong, a loving little girl.
As for Gu Yuxin and Gu Yuxinyi, this time, they both actually gave birth to sons. This is somewhat different from what they saw on the machine before.
"It's normal. After all, there can be gender differences between the baby and the amniotic fluid," Wu Wei reassured everyone. Aside from the gender, the baby's health is excellent in all aspects, much healthier than babies born on Earth.
As for the three pregnant women, they were able to walk again after only half a day of rest, and their health was fine.
"Have you chosen a name yet?" Professor Zhang Qing asked during the meal.
Lu Wuyai shook his head. He and Xiao Dong hadn't really thought about this yet, but they already had a nickname.
After dinner, the group began packing their things, preparing to leave for their new home that very night.
In fact, some women had already left during the day. They went to the valley first, disinfected the area, and then cleared a path.
Along the 50-kilometer stretch of road, thanks to relay stations and walkie-talkies, the two groups can stay informed about each other's situation and reduce danger.
At midnight, the convoy stopped in the forest, where Gu Yuxin and the others had been waiting for a long time.
Lu Wuyai got out of the car. Autumn nights were filled with the howling of wolves in the forest. Wild animals are most active in the period before late autumn in preparation for winter.
"There are wolves," Gu Yuxin warned.
While valleys may be secluded for humans, they make little difference to some animals.
The women had already killed two packs of wolves here and obtained many wolf carcasses. After skinning them, they even hung the bodies in the forest as a deterrent.
That night, everyone finally arrived at the valley. After neatly stacking the supplies, the sky gradually brightened.
Everyone was exhausted after a whole day without rest. Taking advantage of this time, they all went into their temporary tents and quickly fell asleep.
It wasn't until noon that the people in the valley gradually woke up.
Lu Wuyai immediately went to check on the three children and found that they were all sleeping soundly. Their breasts were plump, naturally chubby.
"Daddy," Rou Rou walked in, her hair in braids, her bright eyes shining as she looked at the three babies in the cradle.
"What's wrong?" Lu Wuyai asked in a low voice.
"What are my sister's and brother's names?" She didn't know the names of her three babies yet.
Lu Wuyai pointed to Xiao Dong's child and said, "Her name is Hua Guduo."
Then he pointed to the two little boys and said, "The one on the left is your Aunt Jin's son, named Xiaodouzi. The one on the right is your Aunt Mo's son, named Gou Dan."
Dog Egg.
“Isn’t that an insult?” Rou Rou said innocently.
"This means making a living is easy." Lu Wuyai picked up Rou Rou, put her legs on his shoulders, and walked straight out of the valley.
The midday sun shines brightly, casting a golden glow on the sky. The temperature is neither too hot nor too cold, and the humidity is just right. A gentle breeze keeps you feeling refreshed.
"Dad, let's go down and take a look." Rou Rou pointed to the river below the cliff. In the sunlight, it shimmered with golden light, sparkling and very beautiful.
Lu Wuyai smiled. Actually, he also really wanted to see this great river. After all, it was the largest river they had encountered since entering the world of meditation.
But before leaving, Lu Wuyai took Rou Rou to the laboratory. When he came out again, Rou Rou was wearing a mecha.
Although the laboratory cannot produce mechs, it can modify them.
Soon, two figures, one tall and one short, fell off the cliff and ran along the rugged mountain path towards the river.
Looking at the flowing river, Rou Rou was very excited, but she also knew that this forest was very dangerous.
Not far away, several black forest wolves had already set their sights on them.
