At this moment, Lu Wuyai also became alert. His sixth sense told him that this place was dangerous and not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Suddenly, a heart-wrenching scream filled the air.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people emerged from several nearby tents. They were dressed in white medical uniforms and appeared to be engaged in some kind of scientific research.
But now, these people all rushed into a tent. The moment the curtain was drawn back, both Lu Wuyai and Song Xiaoyou's corpses involuntarily leaned forward.
Although it only lasted a few seconds, many things were already clearly visible.
"What did you see?" Several women cast curious glances at them.
Song Xiaoyou said with her head down, "They are conducting experiments on barbarians. The specifics of the experiments are still unclear."
Lu Wuyai's expression was also grim. He discovered that the barbarian being used for experiments in the tent was the leader of a barbarian tribe.
He didn't know how many savages were left alive, but the last time he rescued at most 30, and now half of them were dead, so there were even fewer left alive.
In the dark forest, this is a little-known corner.
Lu Wuyai stood beneath a giant pine tree, his fingers clasped tightly together at his temples. From the moment he saw that savage, his sixth sense had been triggering some kind of alarm.
"Is it dangerous?" Su Xi asked Lu Wuyai.
“I don’t know, but this is definitely not a small matter,” Lu Wuyai said.
Sixth Sense is almost a 100% accurate early warning system. So far, it hasn't made a single mistake.
"So, should we save them or not?" Su Xi asked.
Save your breath.
Lu Wuyai still planned to go to that tent to take a look, at least to find out what the threat to him was.
Soon, everyone was fully prepared, watching Lu Wuyai approach the tent step by step.
Five minutes later, he drew back the curtains and went straight in.
The air inside the tent wasn't as bloody as one might imagine. The chief of the savage tribe was hanging in the air by a rope, looking quite miserable.
Lu Wuyai looked around carefully and found no danger. His sixth sense gradually calmed down.
“What a strange feeling,” Lu Wuyai murmured. In the forest, his sixth sense had been frantically alerting him. But here, the sense of danger gradually faded.
“I’ll save you first.” Lu Wuyai stepped forward and began to untie the ropes binding the savage.
As a result, after untying the first rope, Lu Wuyai stopped immediately. The hairs on his body stood on end, his pupils shrank, and he rushed out the door.
Suddenly, a sharp scream erupted from the tent; Lu Wuyai was almost knocked unconscious. If it weren't for his astonishing willpower, he would have had to run away.
Back in the woods, seeing the woman running towards him, Lu Wuyai finally couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.
When Lu Wuyai opened his eyes again, it was already fully light.
He was still a little dizzy, but the smell of blood in the air instantly sobered him up.
However, he soon discovered that there were many women around him, and he was still in the forest of yesterday's camp, but the surrounding environment was completely different.
The tents were completely scattered around, looking as if they had been torn to pieces by something.
In addition, there were a large amount of supplies and dozens of corpses in the forest.
"What happened?" Lu Wuyai's eyes widened as he recalled how his eardrums had been shattered by the savage leader's screams yesterday, causing him to faint from the pain. What happened afterward was completely obscure.
At this moment, Lu Wuyai saw several wild men huddled in a corner, shivering in the autumn morning.
At this point, seeing Lu Wuyai open his eyes, the women immediately came over.
How do your ears feel?
Is it any better?
Are you thirsty? Would you like something to drink?
Feeling everyone's concern, Lu Wuyai felt a warmth in his heart, but he still immediately inquired about what had happened last night.
The women looked at each other in confusion at first, and finally asked Song Xiaoyou to explain.
"You've seen this now," Song Xiaoyou continued, pointing to the corpses and tents. "He caused all of this by himself."
"How fierce." Lu Wuyai's eyes widened, but when he recalled the moment he untied the rope last night, he did feel a strong sense of crisis enveloping him, which made him rush out of the tent immediately.
Even so, he was still deceived.
"This camp is probably a laboratory created by modern humans. Some of the data inside was preserved by us and was not destroyed." You Li and Su Xi were walking out of the forest, carrying some hard drives and paper documents.
"Where is the leader?" Lu Wuyai asked.
"Dead." Song Xiaoyou pointed to the pile of flesh and blood, his voice trembling with fear. "The savage leader blew himself up halfway through the battle."
"And we wiped out everyone else in the camp, leaving no one alive."
Half of the corpses on the ground were killed by women. It wasn't that they were bloodthirsty, but rather that these humans didn't give them any chance to explain before launching a ferocious attack.
“Then there are these barbarians.” Lu Wuyai pointed to the survivors huddled in the corner. He still remembered them. They were among the barbarians who had been rescued last time.
The savages seemed to understand Lu Wuyai's words and immediately ran towards him, stumbling and appearing very nervous.
Giliguru said a lot, which Lu Wuyai couldn't understand. However, he could understand what these barbarians meant. They just wanted to follow Lu Wuyai and the others for the sake of their future.
After a moment of silence, the women discussed the issue while Lu Wuyai was unconscious.
Whatever the reason, wherever these barbarians go, they must be careful.
“Come with us first,” Lu Wuyai said.
In the world of meditation, these six remaining barbarians might be Lu Wuyai's true friends.
In fact, they were savages. After processing, their appearance was no different from that of ordinary people, and their intellectual development was much faster than imagined.
But later, until noon, everyone was scavenging for supplies in the ruins.
There are so many tents here, and so many machines inside them. The barbarians only destroyed some of them before, but most were preserved.
"Lu Wuyai, come help me!" Song Xiaoyou called out.
There was a machine in the bushes, but it was too heavy; even Gu Yuxin couldn't pull it out by herself.
Finally, with Lu Wuyai's involvement, a black machine was exposed to the air.
After careful examination, I discovered that this thing is actually a repeater, which is a machine that extends the range of a walkie-talkie.
"With this, the range of our walkie-talkies has been expanded."
"To what extent can it be expanded?"
"This machine seems to have been modified; it should have a range of at least 20 kilometers."
20 kilometers is not too short.
Moreover, Song Xiaoyou said that the distance would definitely increase after the modification. He never expected that they would encounter such a good thing.
They already have walkie-talkies, and quite a few walkie-talkies scattered in various places.
Soon, Lu Wuyai discovered through experiments that the actual usable range of the walkie-talkie was as long as 50 kilometers.
“This thing is a treasure.” Lu Wuyai sighed, never expecting that he would find something like this at the end of his search for the wild man.
"Take it back."
Fortunately, they brought a car with them this time, otherwise Lu Wuyai would have been exhausted carrying him home by himself.
Besides that, I also collected a lot of parts, big and small. These things are currently useless, but no one can predict how they will survive in the future.
Finally, everything except food was loaded into the carriage.
That evening, Lu Wuyai and the others, along with six savages, left the forest where corpses were buried and headed towards the future.
The journey back was not smooth sailing; Lu Wuyai and the others were still searching for a suitable place to gather.
Song Xiaoyou sat in the passenger seat, directing Lu Wuyai on which way to drive.
At dawn, some extra fluorescence appeared in the forest. It looked like a firefly, but in reality, it was just a point of light.
"Let's go down and take a look."
"It looks beautiful."
After last night's intense driving and a whole night's journey, the women were exhausted. They were filled with curiosity as they saw the different scenery.
After parking the car on the side of the road, everyone felt relaxed looking at the vast scenery around them.
As for Lu Wuyai, he followed the fluorescent lights and soon found the source of light.
"So many corpses." Lu Wuyai gasped, and a basin appeared before him. The basin was piled high with white corpses. It looked more like a huge graveyard.
The fluorescence we just saw was clearly phosphorescence emitted by the bone.
Not far away, there were floating phosphorescent lights, commonly known as "will-o'-the-wisps," burning high and low in the cool night.
The women who witnessed this scene were numb and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
“There are quite a few elephants among these carcasses.” Lu Wuyai looked at the two white ivory tusks, the marks of which were very obvious.
And such elephants can be seen almost everywhere in this basin.
In addition, the carcasses of other animals were also enormous. The thought of so many creatures dying here is truly terrifying.
"Let's go back first, it's too gloomy here."
"The elves are coming."
Looking at those green will-o'-the-wisps, even knowing how they were formed, still gave me the creeps, so I chose to leave immediately.
Lu Wuyai frowned, however, because he noticed that the savages accompanying him all had a hint of excitement in their eyes when they saw the basin full of bones.
"I'm very excited." At first, Lu Wuyai doubted that he had misjudged the situation, but when he left, he found the savage rummaging around in the carriage.
"What are they doing?" Su Xi asked curiously. This was the first time everyone had seen the barbarians actively searching for things in the carriage. Previously, these barbarians had been very restrained, even showing fear when traveling together.
But soon, they realized what the other was looking for.
A few minutes later, the six barbarians, each armed, headed towards the Bone Basin. As for Lu Wuyai and the others, they could only follow behind, wondering why these savages were suddenly charging towards the Bone Basin with such excitement.
Some of them held steel knives, while others carried bone spears, their eyes revealing an undisguised fighting intent.
As everyone walked along, they became increasingly curious about what was attracting the barbarians of the Bone Basin.
Ten minutes later, the savage entered the basin, surrounded by a large amount of phosphorescence, which was chilling to behold from a distance.
At this moment, a strong night wind gently blew across the mountaintop, making the already cool environment feel even colder.
At the same time, Lu Wuyai noticed that the advancing savages had finally stopped, and then, taking their tools, began to hack randomly at the bones on the ground.
Awesome!
The sound of bones clashing echoed as the savages worked frantically, but to Lu Wuyai and the others, the scene seemed somewhat incongruous.
Women, in particular, feel a chill run down their spines and their feet turn ice cold, as if countless ghosts are watching them from the sidelines.
“These barbarians can’t be angered.” Su Xi gritted her teeth, forcing herself to speak fluently.
"Who knows? Just be careful," Su Xi reminded them, then huddled together with a few other women for some warmth.
Lu Wuyai had more courage. After all, he was a man. He walked up to the savage, wanting to see clearly why he was chopping down these bones that had existed for who knows how many years.
The bones here clearly hadn't been added for many years. Some of the top layers even showed varying degrees of weathering. If you gently pinched them with your fingers, they would crumble into powder.
Lu Wuyai noticed that every time a savage finished chopping down a bone, he would pick it up and examine it. There seemed to be something inside these bones.
Treasure Hunt
“Nevertheless, there is still something they need in these bones.” Lu Wuyai opened his eyes wide, not missing a single move by the barbarian beside him.
Here, the women gradually recovered from their initial discomfort. Seeing Lu Wuyai looking at the savage so intently, their deepest curiosity was gradually awakened.
After some time, apart from the phosphorescence, there was nothing else scary nearby, so I gradually became bolder.
The group's actions attracted the attention of the savages, but they just chattered and gestured for a while, seemingly wanting Lu Wuyai and the others to join in.
Everyone looked at each other, unsure whether they should take action.
Finally, Lu Wuyai took the initiative, picked up the axe, and started chopping with ease.
As for the other women, after seeing Lu Wuyai's actions, they completely put aside their discomfort and joined in the bone-chopping exercise.
And so, with everyone joining in, a discovery was made very quickly.
After Lu Wuyai cut off an ivory tusk, he discovered several crystals inside that reflected a dazzling light in the darkness.
At that moment, everyone's attention was drawn to it.
There's something I need to tell you.
"What's wrong."
"It is so bright, like a diamond, but it is not the same."
Lu Wuyai turned the ivory over, and soon a bright light appeared in her palm. It was pink and very beautiful.
What is the use of this?
Unlike others, Lu Wuyai clearly sensed a vibrant energy within the pink stone.
Just then, one of the barbarians also discovered the crystal. Although it wasn't pink, it was still quite eye-catching.
After obtaining the crystal, the barbarian carefully placed it in his palm and handed it to Lu Wuyai, his eyes clearer than before.
Lu Wuyai could sense that the other party seemed to really need this kind of thing, otherwise he wouldn't have been searching for tools to chop bones.
Therefore, Lu Wuyai did not accept the crystals, but returned them to the other party.
Yeah yeah.
The savage seemed very happy and actually swallowed the crystal in front of everyone.
The next second, everyone noticed that the savage's body had undergone many changes after swallowing the crystal. The most obvious change was in his hair.
The massive shedding of black hair, like an evolutionary process, astonished everyone around.
Then a change similar to molting occurred. During this change, everyone, including Lu Wuyai, thought of the marrow cleansing and bone-severing techniques.
Indeed, the barbarians who had just swallowed the crystal were as if they had undergone a complete transformation, their very essence being cleansed and their very bones broken. They had even changed their temperament from the inside out.
Everyone was stunned and terrified when they saw the savage's transformation.
"This thing actually has such an effect!" Su Xi exclaimed in surprise, realizing at the same time how precious this thing was.
Lu Wuyai narrowed his eyes. He could sense that the savage's body was still undergoing subtle changes after the modifications.
"Keep looking, but don't rush to take it." Lu Wuyai was very worried about whether this thing would have any side effects.
Actually, needless to say, others think the same way.
Although the transformation of the wild men was astonishing, especially after they lost their hair, they were almost indistinguishable from normal modern humans.
But the more this happens, the more panicked people become.
In the vast White Bone Basin, crystals actually appear only a handful of times.
Throughout the entire night, Lu Wuyai and the savages only managed to cut off a small portion of the remains; many more bones remained buried underneath.
In the early morning, the group stopped and rested on a nearby hill.
During the day, when you look at the white pelvis, it doesn't feel as terrifying as it used to be. You can even spot many animals active in the basin, which is quite interesting.
In a tranquil world, there lives a mink with exceptionally beautiful fur. Bathed in sunlight, its entire body shimmers with a soft golden glow, making it truly stunning.
This is a new animal, which Wu named the Purple Gold Sable.
There were a very large number of sables in the pelvis. It seems to be a gregarious place, as they can be seen everywhere.
Su Xi even dug up a litter of purple ferret cubs from the ground. They hadn't opened their eyes yet and were pitifully thin. As for their parents, they seemed to have long forgotten them.
“I will raise them,” Su Xi vowed.
Everyone listened for a while, then turned around and got back to work.
Because of the experience of being seriously injured last night, everyone's efficiency has improved significantly, and the chances of obtaining crystals have also increased greatly.
After a whole day, they finally finished hammering all the bones in the basin.
Lu Wuyai was quietly opening a small black cloth bag, but the dazzling light inside almost overwhelmed him.
"It's too bright." Lu Wuyai's vision was still blurry when he closed the bag, and it took him a while to get used to it.
"It's over, time to go back."
Taking advantage of the lingering twilight, the group began their return journey. This time, they were accompanied by six fully dressed savages, filled with curiosity about the reappearance of this world.
