The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 226: Mental Strength Breaks 35 Points, Comprehending New Skills

"Do you mean they will take action?" Ding Yan asked with a cold face.

Liang Yuan nodded: "At the latest, it will be after the tide!"

Yang Shenmin agreed, "Of course. Although I don't know how these people got the power stone from Tian Wei before, they will definitely not let us occupy this place alone. We will have to fight sooner or later."

Shi Haizhu said immediately: "Damn it, are you afraid of them? If you want to fight, then fight. With Mr. Liang here, we are not afraid of anyone."

Shi Haizhu obviously regards Liang Yuan as his idol and is inexplicably confident in Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan also smiled and said, "Zhu Zi is right. Now that we have taken this place, we can't let it go."

"Then do we still need to develop the shelter over there?" Gu Feng couldn't help but ask.

Liang Yuan immediately said: "Of course, you have seen the environment of this mining area. There are bare rocks everywhere. It is not suitable for living at all."

"This is only our expansion zone. Our base is still in the Fire Bamboo Forest."

"Although the two are far apart, don't you realize that this is the south of Yangshan Mountain, and it is in a pincer attack with the Fire Bamboo Forest in the east? If we occupy these two places, we will be invincible in Yangshan Mountain."

"More importantly, this place borders Meishan and is the only passage to Meishan."

"If necessary in the future, we will also take Meishan."

“In the future, more and more people will go up the mountain.”

Liang Yuan's words made everyone nod.

Indeed, the flood water was rising continuously. As long as the people in the building wanted to survive, they could only keep running to higher places, and Yangshan was naturally the highest place.

So more and more people will come here in the future.

Especially as more and more people awaken their superpowers and become stronger, there should be quite a few people with superpowers who can cross the flood.

"Liang Yuan, do you really want to let these people join?"

Ding Yan pointed at the miners over there.

Liang Yuan asked, "What's wrong?"

Ding Yan said in a deep voice: "This group of people followed Tian Wei out of the Zhongyue Hongti Community. There must be a lot of people in the Zhongyue Hongti Community, and Tian Wei's personality should not be a good person."

"It is very likely that he is someone similar to Liu Erlong. How many of the people he brought with him are good people?"

"These people have probably done something unscrupulous."

Liang Yuan understood that Ding Yan was worried that these people would not follow the rules.

He smiled and said, "We have the final say here."

"If you don't follow the rules, just kill you."

When he said this, his expression did not change much.

The world has changed, and killing people is no longer a burden to him.

Yang Shenmin and others seemed to be used to it and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

After hearing this, Ding Yan nodded slightly, acknowledging Liang Yuan's attitude.

Liang Yuan certainly considered what Ding Yan said, so at the beginning, he did not plan to recruit these people into his patrol team or anything.

Instead, it is better to let these people stay here and mine ore for themselves.

There may be some good people among these people, but Liang Yuan still needs to observe them carefully. If there are any who perform well and he knows their background well, he will consider absorbing them into the Fire Bamboo Forest Shelter.

Yang Shenmin also agreed with Liang Yuan's words and said, "Now is the time to hire people. We can observe these people for the time being. If they are disobedient, we can teach them a lesson and they will naturally behave themselves."

"The reason why people become bad, besides greed in their hearts, is that they have no rules to restrain them. What we need to do now is to rebuild this order and establish new rules."

“Only in this way can we truly run a shelter well.”

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Listen, what Doctor Yang said is very good. Okay, let's follow this method for the time being."

"Come with me. I will introduce you to the leaders of these miners and show you around the mine."

Ding Yan asked: "Liang Yuan, the tide is about to come. How can the mining area deal with the tide?"

"The tide is dangerous. Not only will the creatures in the sea crawl onto the shore, but the mutant beasts in the mountains will also riot."

"So every shelter is mainly for hiding, and the mine shelter is the same."

Gu Feng asked curiously, "Where are they hiding? In the cave?"

Liang Yuan said: "Well, but it's not these caves. There is a natural cave deep in the mine. It's quite big. I'll take you there to have a look. You may need to guard here for a while."

Upon hearing this, several people nodded.

Next, Liang Yuan took them to familiarize themselves with the mine and introduced Liao Tao, Niu Daming and Meng Guangli.

When the three of them saw Yang Shenmin and the others, they hurriedly greeted them, maintaining awe.

Then Liang Yuan took Yang Shenmin and others to the underground cave.

"It's so big here."

"This place is nice. It's big enough and has mountain spring water. It's really a good place to escape the tide."

"That's right, then we can seal up the hole over there and it will be perfect."

When several people entered the cave, they immediately showed satisfaction, thinking that it would not be a big problem to temporarily avoid the tide here.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Everyone can rest here tonight."

Ding Yan couldn't help but ask, "What about you?"

Liang Yuan said: "I have to go back tonight."

"You're going back so late?"

"Well, I'll go back and prepare some supplies and leave them here. The tide needs to last at least two days. With so many of you, we can't do without supplies."

Ding Yan felt a little disappointed. She had just met Liang Yuan and thought she could be alone with him today.

When Liang Yuan saw her lost look, he knew what she was thinking.

He couldn't help but smile and whispered, "I'll stay here tomorrow night."

Ding Yan looked up in surprise, her eyes full of joy: "Really?"

"real!"

Only then did she change her worry into joy and said, "If you want to leave, leave quickly. It will be difficult to travel on the road if it's too late."

Liang Yuan nodded, said hello to Yang Shenmin and the others, left some food, and hurriedly left the mining shelter.

He did have important business to go back for, firstly to report his safety to Yangmei and the others.

Secondly, the fish over there are waiting to be harvested.

I didn't go back all day today, so I guess I caught a lot of fish.

His current points have reached more than 8,000.

In the past few days, everyone in the shelter has caught a lot of mutant fish, and he harvested several batches.

I also killed some fire bamboo rats, mutant beasts on the island, and so on, and accumulated some of them bit by bit.

Including the group of Tian Wei who were just killed, and the mutant pangolin, the total points reached 8311 points.

If there is another gap of less than 2,000 points, it will reach 10,000 points.

"Let's extract attribute points this time."

"You must increase your attribute points compared to other psychics in order to improve the effectiveness of your skills."

"The effects of white skills are getting worse and worse. For example, mental shock can't directly injure Tu Long and Wu Meng. It means that my mental power attribute is not high enough."

"If the mental power attribute is improved a little more, the power of my mental attack should be stronger."

"No, Psychic Shock is a white skill after all, so maybe its power limit is there."

"But if my mental strength improves, maybe I can learn the green skills in the skill beads."

Originally Liang Yuan planned to accumulate 10,000 points and try to draw a wave of skills.

If I could draw out an elemental skill, maybe I would also have the ability to manipulate fire, ice, etc.

To be honest, he was quite envious of this kind of elemental power.

However, he felt that there was no need to draw elemental powers for the time being. He had to first create a gap in strength between himself and the other leaders of the shelters.

After the battle with Tian Wei, he found it somewhat difficult to deal with elemental mutants.

My greatest reliance should still be my mental strength.

Therefore, it is better to create a gap in mental strength with these people and form an absolute crushing advantage.

As for skills, you can accumulate points to improve them later.

For now, it is better to increase attribute points, and the improvement effect will be more obvious.

"Forget it, let's just draw it now. It's a good opportunity to get familiar with the fused state on the way back."

In the darkness of night, Liang Yuan decided to draw directly without waiting to accumulate 10,000 points.

There is no need to wait to draw attribute points.

"System, extract attribute points in a targeted manner!"

"Ding, the lottery is in progress——"

As the familiar turntable turned, five attribute points appeared in front of Liang Yuan.

hum-

"Ding, you drew 1 physical attribute point."

"Ding, you drew 1 physical attribute point."

……

The reminder sound rang eight times in succession, and Liang Yuan hurriedly looked at the result.

My luck exploded this time, out of the eight attribute points, I got 3 free attribute points!

There are five attribute points left, namely 1 point of agility, 2 points of strength, and 1 point of spirit!
Liang Yuan did not move the three free attribute points, allowing the other attribute points to merge into his body. As the attribute points merged, new changes appeared on Liang Yuan's attribute panel.

Host: Liang Yuan

Constitution: 21.8
Power: 17.9
Agility: 15.8
Spirit: 34.3
Free attribute points: 3
Ability: Evolution

Skills: [Muscle Burst], [Mental Shock], [Spirit Turtle Shield]

Mutation Progress: 77%
Points: 311
thing:……

Liang Yuan felt the changes in his body. Every time his attribute points increased, the increase was most obvious at the beginning.

But as time goes on, this enhancement becomes weaker.

After all, my physical foundation is no longer the same.

It's like adding a drop of water into a cup, and you can probably clearly see how much the water level rises.

But if you add a drop of water into a basin of water, it is difficult to notice the change in water level.

Liang Yuan now actually has a similar feeling.

If all eight attribute points were added to the same attribute, the feeling would be completely different.

"The spiritual attribute has exceeded 34.3!"

“I wonder if I can condense the green skill on the skill bead now!”

Liang Yuan's heart moved slightly, and while he was on his way, he began to try to condense the skills on the skill beads in his mind.

However, after only three or four attempts, he found that it was not feasible.

"It's still a little short! Just a little short."

He was somewhat unwilling and took a look at the free attribute points.

"The official rune technology disclosure mentioned that the basic requirement for learning rune technology is to have a mental strength of 25 points."

“Is 25 a hurdle? Will 35 be a hurdle?”

Liang Yuan guessed in his heart: "It's just a little bit, let's give it a try!"

Without hesitation, he used one free attribute point and added it directly to the mental attribute!

In an instant, his entire sea of ​​consciousness trembled slightly!
Immediately afterwards, he clearly felt that the icy mental power suddenly became much more solid!
He subconsciously released his mental power.

In an instant, the mental power seemed to have substance and quickly penetrated in all directions.

The tree trunks, rocks, and everything in front are clearly visible.

"Hmm? No, there's a change!"

Liang Yuan keenly discovered that after his mental power was condensed, its penetrating power seemed to be stronger!
Originally, mental power would be greatly weakened when penetrating physical objects.

But now, it seems that the degree of weakness has been reduced a lot!

Liang Yuan could even see through the trees and clearly see the growth rings inside!
"So my mental power was too loose before, which is why it was greatly weakened when penetrating dense objects?"

"35 points of spiritual attribute, is this a new threshold?"

Liang Yuan was pleasantly surprised. He immediately felt his mental power entering a new world.

"The big-headed monster back then, has a spiritual attribute as high as 35 points?"

Liang Yuan recalled his fight with the big-headed monster and for a moment he couldn't help but feel scared.

If I hadn't had the mental shock skill at that time, I could have barely resisted the opponent's green skill.

He also had a powerful burst of strength and fought in close combat, which is how he killed the big-headed monster.

If it were any ordinary psychic, there would be only one way out: death!
You know, the development of all your attributes is relatively balanced.

By myself, I am equivalent to a person with psychic powers, as well as strength, physique, and agility!
"Now I should be able to condense the runes on the skill beads!"

Liang Yuan's heart moved slightly, and he immediately began to try to simulate the runes on the skill bead.

It was pouring rain, and Liang Yuan was running quickly in the night, rushing towards the fire bamboo forest.

The wind was howling in all directions, and there were faint signs of mutant beasts peering over or flashing by in the woods.

Liang Yuan was alert and moved at a very fast speed while constantly scanning the surroundings with his eyes.

His eyes had already evolved into night vision capabilities with the help of the [Evolution] ability.

So the seemingly pitch-black forest was as clear as day in his eyes.

The darkness of night could not hinder his steps.

Blah, blah!
Suddenly, there was a loud rustling sound coming from the woods ahead, as if some large creature was walking in the woods.

Liang Yuan paused, sensing a hint of danger.

He flashed and quickly leaned against a nearby big tree.

The heavy rain washed away the smell on his body.

This makes it more difficult for the mutant beasts to hunt.

Therefore, many mutant beasts no longer rely on scent to find prey, but have evolved super-strong visual and auditory perception.

Some have even evolved powerful mental perception.

Liang Yuan didn't move, holding his breath, but his mental power went straight out to explore.

I saw a mutant beast similar to a cat gnawing on a corpse in the woods thirty meters away.

Liang Yuan took a look with his mental power and saw that the clothes worn by the corpse seemed to be those of the group of people in the mining area.

"Is it the miner who escaped this morning?"

Liang Yuan suddenly realized that these miners were ordinary people and were not familiar with Yangshan, where vegetation was growing wildly.

It is not surprising that he died tragically at the hands of a mutant beast after getting lost in the mountains and having no special powers to rely on.

"Meow--"

The mutant cat suddenly stopped, seemed to have noticed something, and turned its head sharply.

Its intuition is very sharp, and the direction it is looking seems to be Liang Yuan's direction.

Liang Yuan's heart skipped a beat: "What a high perception, has this mutant cat awakened its spiritual power?"

Liang Yuan silently condensed the [Spirit Turtle Cover] in his mind. In an instant, a layer of mental force field turned into a tortoise shell-like cover and directly covered Liang Yuan.

At the same time, Liang Yuan suddenly discovered that water vapor was rising all around him, forming a mist that covered the area.

He used his mental power to probe out and found that the fog actually had the effect of interfering with mental power!

Obviously, this fog is also the product of some kind of mental force.

"It's indeed a mutant cat with some kind of psychic power!"

Liang Yuan understood, but no mist penetrated into his spirit turtle cover.

The occasional sounds of cats meowing all around made Liang Yuan cautious.

“Before the flood, there were too many stray cats and dogs among the wild animals.”

"If they have nowhere to go, they will most likely run to the mountains. There is no telling how many mutant cats and dogs are hiding on Yang Mountain."

"This mutant cat has psychic abilities, but this fog doesn't seem to have much effect on interfering with my mental power."

"Is it because my mental strength has undergone a qualitative change after it broke through to 35 points?"

Liang Yuan seemed to be thinking about something. He was in a good mood and was not in a hurry to leave.

Right next to the tree trunk, he tried to concentrate his spirit and began to simulate the runes on the skill bead.

The skill bead flashed green, and Liang Yuan began to gather his mental strength, condensing patterns like a neural network.

He had simulated this opening part thousands of times and had memorized it by heart.

Except for the last few neural networks, which could not be copied successfully due to insufficient mental strength before, the other neural network patterns were almost completed in one go.

This time, after his mental power broke through 35 points, his mental power not only improved, but also underwent a qualitative change.

When I first condensed those neural network runes, the consumption was surprisingly not as much as before.

Liang Yuan keenly noticed that when his mental power condensed the neural network rune, it was gradually stained with a layer of light green light!
"Will it succeed?"

He had an idea and immediately focused on drawing the runes.

As the runes were continuously drawn, they reached the last two most critical meridian lines.

At this moment, the fog suddenly rolled up!
A cat face suddenly appeared outside Liang Yuan's spirit turtle cover!
Bang!
The mutant cat bared its teeth ferociously, and suddenly slapped the turtle cover with its claws, making a loud muffled sound!
Liang Yuan remained unmoved, and tried his best to stabilize his mental strength and draw the last stroke!
The mutant cat let out a strange cry and tore the turtle cover violently with its two claws.

clack clack...

On the spirit turtle shield, the transparent tortoise shell barrier seemed to be unable to bear the weight and large cracks appeared.

boom!
Suddenly, with a powerful claw from the mutant cat, the turtle shield shattered!
A large amount of fog poured in instantly. At the same time, the mutant cat jumped up, bared its teeth and claws, and grabbed Liang Yuan's throat fiercely!

A feline mutant that still retains the most primitive hunting skills and instincts.

They know where their prey is most vulnerable!
The sharp claws were about to scratch Liang Yuan's throat.

At this moment, Liang Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

In his pupils, there were green neural network runes flashing green light!

In the air, mental power spread rapidly in the shape of a network.

Everything around seemed to be frozen.

The mutant cat was actually frozen in the void for a moment.

Its eyeballs flashed rapidly, revealing a look of fear.

It wanted to struggle, but the void seemed to have an invisible force that bound it there.

This scene was very similar to the scene when the big-headed monster Yang Xue used her mental power!
Liang Yuan laughed: "It's done!"
