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

Chapter 537 Darkness
A person with psychic abilities can use his psychic power to sense things within the range of his psychic power.

This perception, like God's vision, is not only more delicate than the naked eye, but also has a certain penetrating ability.

The only flaw is that this perception is controlled by the strength of mental power and has a limited visual range.

Of course, with Liang Yuan’s current mental perception range, he can sense things within a radius of 400 meters.

At this distance, with Liang Yuan's reaction speed, even if he encounters danger, he can react instantly and respond in time.

As Liang Yuan thought about it, he released his mental power, covering all directions.

As his mental power expanded, the surrounding environment gradually took shape in Liang Yuan's mind.

This is a rocky waterside, with waves crashing against the rocks.

The speedboat under my feet was now stuck in the middle by two reefs. Even though its engine roared, it could only roar at the water.

Within a range of 400 meters, there are such rocky shoals to the left and rear.

About two hundred meters behind, there appeared a clear edge where light and dark met.

The mental power could sense that objects on the horizontal surface two hundred meters away had bright colors.

However, with the naked eye here, it seems that the light two hundred meters away cannot be seen at all.

It seemed that the lights were swallowed up as soon as they entered this area.

"If you don't have spiritual power, it's really difficult to move forward here relying only on your naked eyes."

Liang Yuan was secretly surprised. In this environment that swallowed up all the light, he couldn't see anything at all.

You know, the reason why humans can distinguish directions is that they definitely need coordinate reference objects.

It is impossible to have any reference in such a dark space.

So once you enter it, there is a high possibility that you will be completely lost.

Liang Yuan leaped down from the speedboat, waved his hand, and put the speedboat back into the inventory.

Then he quickly jumped back and forth on the reefs and approached the shore in front of him in a flash.

About five hundred meters later, he successfully reached a piece of land.

Under spiritual perception, this land also has no color, but there is a lot of black moss and hairy vegetation growing on the ground.

“Can plants grow without light?”

Liang Yuan bent down, reached out and pulled out a handful of vegetation.

These plants felt like smooth and soft hair. Liang Yuan pulled them hard, but found that they were very tough!
"Could it be the hair of the corpse on this dark-attribute floating island?"

Liang Yuan looked a little strange, and was trying to guess the nature of these things.

Then he pulled up a bunch of ferns. These plants were also pitch black, but fresh and juicy.

Liang Yuan pinched the fern with his hands and a lot of juice appeared.

"I don't know if it's edible. If it is, this juicy fern would be a great dish."

He casually stuffed the ferns into his inventory, planning to test them when he got back.

Nowadays, whenever people in Yangshan go out and come across plants, they will try to collect some seeds or rhizomes and bring them back to the Ministry of Agriculture.

After all, from the end of the world to now, floods have spread everywhere and there are fewer and fewer things to eat.

Every edible vegetation is a valuable resource.

Liang Yuan naturally would not miss these.

Putting away the ferns and hairy vegetation, Liang Yuan looked around.

The spiritual perception range of four hundred meters is still too small, Liang Yuan frowned.

Within this range, all the scenery is similar, mostly smooth vegetation and ferns, and there are not even any trees to be seen.

After thinking about it, in order to avoid getting lost later, Liang Yuan took out an abandoned car from the inventory and threw it on the spot as a landmark.

After doing all this, Liang Yuan randomly chose a direction and explored the floating island.

While investigating, Liang Yuan was sensing the location of Huang Guangzu's parasitic species.

"How did he get to this floating island? Did Tu Long and Nai Bai follow him in?"

Liang Yuan felt strange in his heart, because the location of Huang Guangzu's parasitic species was on this island.

But Liang Yuan didn't understand why Huang Guangzu appeared here.

While on the road, Liang Yuan left coordinates on the ground.

Because he was unfamiliar with the environment on the island, Liang Yuan did not dare to travel at full speed, so his speed was much slower.

After walking about two or three kilometers, rugged rocks appeared in front of us.

These rocks stand on the plain like fortifications.

The bare stones, with only moss and shaggy vegetation covering the ground, give it a Wild West feel.

"Damn it, why are you back again!"

"Guo Qing, is this going to work? This method simply won't work."

"This is the third time. This is the third time we've passed this rock. Fuck!"

"No, if we continue like this, we will definitely be trapped here and die. This is already the fifth day."

Suddenly, Liang Yuan heard a fierce quarrel coming from the front.

Mixed with these quarreling sounds was fear and anxiety.

Liang Yuan's mind suddenly moved, and he immediately used his mental power to quickly "look" over through the nearby stones.

But in the stone forest, I saw three disheveled men leaning against a big rock.

One of them had a ferocious look on his face and was touching the stone, which seemed to have some scratches and marks on it.

The other two kept grumbling and complaining, one of them wearing a golden kerchief and having a rough voice.

The other had a scar on his face and also had a metal headband on his head.

The object of the two men's complaint at this moment was the young man who was touching the marks on the stone.

The young man muttered to himself, "Impossible, this is impossible. My spiritual power is clearly moving in a straight line. I marked every 200 meters. How could I get lost? This is impossible."

This young man was called Guo Qing, a survivor from Baoshan City, and the two people beside him were his companions. The three of them were the vanguard personnel sent from the ship from Baoshan City to investigate the situation.

However, since entering this place a week ago, they have been trapped in this forest and have never been able to get out.

"Shi Hu, Guo Qing is a psychic. Even he can't get out, so it's even more difficult for us." The scarred man couldn't help but say.

A man wearing a golden scarf and with a rough voice said, "What the hell is going on in this damn place? How can there be no light at all? Even the torches can't be lit!"

"Old Cai, do you feel something is wrong? We used to be able to meet living people, but in the past two days, we haven't met a single person. Could it be that they have already left?"

Hearing this, the scarred man Lao Cai also said, "Yeah, I could meet other people before, but why can't I meet anyone now?"

Shi Hu turned his head to look at Guo Qing who was still mumbling, but he could not see anything. He could only pull the rope and shouted: "Guo Qing, stop talking, how much food do we have left?"

But I saw that there was a rope tied around the waists of the three of them.

If not for this, I'm afraid these three people would have gotten lost.

Guo Qing came back to his senses and said, "I only have three fish cakes left in my bag, what about you?"

Shi Hu said: "I only have five sweet potatoes and three bottles of boiled water."

"Don't worry about water. It's still raining here, so we won't be short of water. The problem is food. If we continue like this, I'm afraid we'll starve to death."

"The most urgent thing is to find a way to find food." Old Cai couldn't help but say.

These words made Shi Hu and Guo Qing nod in agreement.

Guo Qing said: "I wonder if the mosses on the ground are edible. It's strange. This island is so big, why is there not a single mutant beast?"

"If we can catch two mutant beasts, we can have some meat to fill our stomachs."

"Could it be because we haven't entered the depths of the island yet? Are we still circling around the periphery?" Shi Hu couldn't help but analyze.

Old Cai nodded: "What Shi Hu said makes sense. We have been trapped in this stone forest for a short time since we came in. It is very likely that we have not yet entered the deeper part of the island."

"Oh, damn it, I don't know if the captain and the others came in to search and rescue us before they heard from us." Shi Hu couldn't help but say.

Guo Qing sighed and said, "I'm afraid that even if the captain and his men come in, they won't be able to find us."

After these words were spoken, Lao Cai and Shi Hu fell silent.

A feeling of despair surged up in their hearts and spread among the three of them.

Liang Yuan was listening to the conversation between the three people from a distance, sensing their current state with his mental power, and gradually understood their situation.

Just as he expected, when outsiders entered here, without light, without reference objects, and without vision, they were like blind men touching an elephant, unable to distinguish anything here.

Guo Qing is a person with psychic powers, but he is still trapped inside. This shows how big this stone forest is.

Liang Yuan thought for a while and did not rush into the stone forest. Instead, he chose to exit the stone forest and walk along the edge of the stone forest.

"Go around the stone forest and maybe you can find another way to get deeper into the island."

Liang Yuan's mental power range is only about 400 meters. When encountering a natural maze like the stone forest, he is a little worried about getting lost.

So the best way right now is to avoid it.

Walking along the stone forest for about four or five kilometers, the stone forest disappeared and the endless flat land appeared in front again.

Liang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, his mental power enveloped the surroundings, and he continued walking towards the island.

After walking for about ten miles, the terrain ahead gradually rose and various low stones appeared on the ground.

Liang Yuan didn't care at first and continued walking for a while. Then he sensed with his mental power that a huge canyon suddenly appeared in front of him!

“There’s actually a canyon!”

"Huang Guangzu's parasitic species is right down there!"

Liang Yuan's heart moved, and he was a little surprised. He finally clearly sensed the whereabouts of Huang Guangzu.

Liang Yuan did not hesitate at that moment. He jumped up, his mental power surging, and he flew quickly into the canyon by flying in the air.

The canyon was unfathomable, and within the range of Liang Yuan's spiritual power, he could only sense the smooth cliffs near him.

After descending about three hundred meters, Liang Yuan sensed the bottom of the valley with his spiritual power.

There was a sound of rushing water coming from the bottom of the valley. It turned out that there was no land below, but a lake!

Liang Yuan hurriedly stopped, sensed the location of the parasitic species, and then quickly flew towards the location of the parasitic species.

However, after flying over the lake for a while, Liang Yuan sensed for sure that Huang Guangzu's parasitic species was nearby, but he still couldn't find anyone.

This made Liang Yuan frown, and he couldn't help but look down at the lake.

"Is he under the water?"

Thinking of this, his heart suddenly moved, and his body immediately fell down and quickly escaped into the water.

Bang!
The water splashed and the waves surged.

A water shield quickly formed around Liang Yuan.

The skill of "Sea of ​​​​Baichuan" is activated, and the Spirit Turtle Shield is also directly opened.

His body was covered with khaki scales, and then covered with a layer of golden scales.

After preparing the defense, Liang Yuan released his mental power and immediately searched for the location of Huang Guangzu's parasitic species.

He circled around underwater, and after a while, he suddenly stopped.

But I saw a cave gap in the underwater cliff ahead.

Many mutant fish swam out from it.

Liang Yuan's heart moved slightly: "In here?"

He immediately moved closer and swam inside along the entrance of the cave.

The entrance to the cave ahead became narrower and narrower, until there was no room left.

This did not pose a problem for Liang Yuan. He directly activated his earth escape skill and dived into the stone wall.

Following the direction sensed by the parasitic species, Liang Yuan quickly escaped between the stones.

Not long after, he suddenly had an idea. At the end of the stone wall in front of him, a huge underground cave space appeared!
