Chapter 1288 Don’t offend the river
Its eyes were red, like burning flames, flickering strangely in the darkness.
The teeth are extremely sharp, as if they can easily bite through any hard object.
There are also mutated flowers whose petals appear to be withering and dying, but in fact it is just a deceptive illusion.
Its petals sway gently, as if telling a mysterious story that makes people involuntarily fall into it.
Li Luo quietly observed these mutated animals and plants. Although he was alert, he did not feel any fear.
She has experienced countless hardships in this apocalypse. What kind of danger has she not seen?
How could they be easily frightened by these mutated creatures?
Her eyes were firm and resolute, as if telling these mutant creatures that she would not back down easily.
She straightened her spine slightly, emitting a powerful aura.
After a moment, Li Luo keenly noticed that these mutated animals and plants did not show any obvious hostility.
They just quietly watched themselves, the potatoes, and the spinning tops from the dark, as if they were carefully assessing the level of threat they posed.
Li Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes were like a sharp blade, as if they could penetrate all darkness.
With the help of the special ability of the All Things Translator, she spoke calmly and forcefully to the mutant plants and animals hiding in the dark:
"We are just passing through here and staying for one night. We have no ill intentions. We will leave tomorrow. I hope that we can keep to ourselves and live in peace tonight. I don't want to be your enemy, and please don't provoke us or other people in the town's gymnasium. We can each keep to our own ways and live in peace."
Her voice was clear and powerful, echoing in the air. Every word seemed to carry an invisible force, like a heavy hammer hitting a stone slab, making the mutated animals and plants feel her determination.
In fact, the mutant creatures hiding in the darkness had already sensed the arrival of these "uninvited guests" since the Hope Base's convoy entered the town.
However, they were keenly aware of the powerful aura emanating from Li Luo and the others, a power that made them feel fearful.
They know very well that they should never provoke others unless it is a life-and-death situation that threatens their own safety.
Therefore, I have been hiding quietly in the dark and observing carefully.
Li Luo stared at them closely, waiting for their response.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
After a while, the mutated animals and plants seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding and slowly retreated as if they had agreed.
Their movements were extremely slight, making almost no sound, and they quickly disappeared into the darkness, as if they had never appeared.
Li Luo still looked around vigilantly, and only relaxed slightly after confirming that there were no other abnormalities.
She tilted her head slightly, looked at the potatoes and spinning top beside her, and said softly:
"They're all gone, let's get out of here first."
Her voice was soft but it carried a firm strength.
Potato let out a low humming sound, his chubby little body was tense, his eyes full of eagerness to try.
"Mommy, it's so boring that these guys just left like that. I was thinking of having a good fight with them!"
There was obvious reluctance in Potato's tone.
The gyroscope also twisted its tentacles and said excitedly:
"Luo, this is such a pity. I also want to try out how strong these mutant creatures are. Oh! I hope I can have another chance in the future."
Li Luo looked at the two little guys who were eager to fight and couldn't help but find it funny. He smiled helplessly.
These two funny guys are always so full of fighting spirit, as if they don't know what danger is.
However, it was precisely because of their bravery and fearlessness that she felt more warmth and strength in these difficult doomsdays.
After leaving there, Li Luo continued to patrol the surrounding area with the two little ones, Potato Gyro.
Her eyes are as sharp as an eagle's, and she never misses any corner where danger may be hidden.
That gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the darkness and see through all potential threats.
Potato and Gyro also followed her closely, keeping alert at all times.
In the process, she discovered some traces of mutated animals and plants.
Those mysterious figures loomed in the dark, like ghosts.
But most of them just watched them quietly in the dark, without showing any obvious hostility.
Li Luo thought to himself that these mutant creatures seemed to be weighing the pros and cons and did not dare to provoke them easily.
She became more certain of her previous judgment that as long as they did not take the initiative to provoke them, these mutant creatures would not easily launch an attack.
After completing a round of patrol, Li Luo felt that he could rest assured for the time being.
She originally planned to go back to the space and have a good sleep, but she thought that she might not be able to take care of the outside world during the time she was back in the space. In case of any emergency, she would not be able to arrive in time.
So she decided to sleep in the car.
This way, even if something happens, she can react immediately.
Before going back, Li Luo took out the universal communicator and told his family members in detail about his situation in the group chat.
I learned from my family members that the official authorities have also known about Li Luo's absence from the base.
There was nothing to hide. After all, she had to bring so many people from Hope Base back with her, so she couldn't hide it even if she wanted to.
And everyone knows Li Luo's abilities and knows that she will be fine.
The authorities are also full of confidence in her and believe that she can handle this task properly.
After the chat, Li Luo put away the communicator, took Potato and the gyroscope, and walked towards the gymnasium.
Soon, they arrived at where the convoy was parked.
The people on night watch stood there quietly, their eyes full of vigilance.
They were like loyal guards, protecting everyone's safety. Li Luo walked forward and briefly greeted the few people who were keeping watch here.
"Thank you for your hard work. Is there anything unusual tonight?" Li Luo asked softly.
"Miss Li Luo, everything is normal. No danger was found." One of the night watchmen replied.
After a brief exchange, Li Luo got in the car.
Although the space inside the car was small, it made her feel a long-lost sense of tranquility.
She leaned back in her seat, closed her eyes, and tried to relax.
However, the scenes from the day kept appearing in her mind.
Those tired faces, everyone is struggling hard in this doomsday, trying to survive.
And there are those brave furry kids who still maintain their innocence and bravery in this cruel world.
Li Luo knew that in this doomsday world, there was no moment that was truly safe.
She took a deep breath and gradually calmed herself down.
She understood that tomorrow was another new day, and they had to keep moving forward and work hard for a future full of hope.
