NOVEL NEXT Chapter 42 - The Death Around Him
Chapter 42: The Death Around Him
Of course, Lu Yuan would not sell the spirit crystals.
He still had to use it to charge the Evolution Cube and cultivate.
Just the Evolution Cube needed to evolve elite genes, and it already required several thousand, or even close to 10000, spirit crystals. He didn’t know how many more he would need in the future.
He would do it steadily.
After putting away the spirit crystals, Lu Yuan entered the underground palace again.
This time, before Lu Yuan could fill the space with the materials, the light door leading out had already been completely restored.
“Is the time up?”
Lu Yuan killed a small stone golem with one strike and picked up the heart of the small stone golem on the ground.
With a thought, his vision turned black.
When he regained his vision, he was already in his simple little room.
He instinctively looked out the window.
The sky outside the window was dark blue, and the neon lights that had been shining all night had dimmed.
“Morning? This time, I’ve stayed a little longer than the last time. ”
Lu Yuan took out his phone and saw that it was already seven in the morning.
This time, he entered the origin source grounds at nine o’clock, which meant that he had been in there for ten hours.
Five days?
Lu Yuan revealed a smile. He had stayed two more days in the Land of Origin than yesterday.
Naturally, the harvest was huge.
His gene refinement had officially reached 20%!
Compared to yesterday, it had increased by 10%.
After consuming nearly 5000 crystals, his Evolution Cube was finally fully charged, and he could upgrade his black iron body to the next level.
Of course, he would not evolve now.
He had consumed a lot of spiritual crystals for his own cultivation, so he only had 342 spiritual crystals left.
Other than spiritual crystals, there were other gains.
There were two hundred materials, and four Geno weapons.
Apart from the two sets of leather armor that had been dropped by the three humanoid cat hunters, the pair of daggers had been dropped by the sand ant.
The other leather armor was dropped by Black Scorpion.
Not only that, but before he came out, he had also changed his original armor into the small golem armor that the small golems had dropped.
As for the armor he had previously obtained from the Black Patterned Greystone Beetle, it had finally shattered under the attack of thousands of ferocious beasts.
Even the shadow in the gene strands had completely collapsed, and he couldn’t even repair it.
He had lost a set of armor, which cost him tens of thousands of dollars. He was a little distressed.
The new small golem armor was the same as the previous one, it was of normal quality.
However, compared to the previous armor, the small Golem armor provided him with a greater defense enhancement.
This was probably because the small golem’s body had a higher degree of tempering.
This was the only thing that made Lu Yuan happy.
“It’s still early. I’ll read the post first, then go to the Mad Wolf Material Store to sell things. He didn’t know if the boss accepted Geno weapons. If you don’t want it, I’ll just put it up on the Battle Network and sell it. ”
As long as one was a genetic warrior, they could open their own shop and sell their items.
Lu Yuan was no exception.
However, he felt that it would be a little troublesome. It would be best if he could sell it at the material store.
Just as Lu Yuan sat down while thinking about the problem …
He heard a piercing scream from the room next door.
“Wayne! Wake up, Wayne! What’s wrong, Wayne?”
Lu Yuan was stunned.
“This voice … The young couple on the side?”
He frowned slightly, stood up, and went out.
Lu Yuan came to the door of the young couple’s room and knocked on the door.
“Are you alright?”
She heard a knock on the door and hurried footsteps came from inside.
Soon, the door opened and a black-haired woman of average looks in black pajamas appeared in front of Lu Yuan.
The black-haired woman’s face was still covered in tears, and her face was filled with fear.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly. “Miss MA, I heard your voice. I came to take a look. Are you okay?”
The man’s name was Feng Wei, and the woman’s name was Ma Lingling.
Although they knew their names, Lu Yuan didn’t have much interaction with them. He only nodded and smiled when he saw them.
Ma Lingling was still in shock. When she heard Lu Yuan’s words, she shrieked,”
“Quickly come and help me! Wayne! Wayne is not breathing!”
Lu Yuan’s eyes flickered, and he hurriedly entered the room.
The layout of the young couple’s room was similar to Lu Yuan’s room, but the area was slightly larger.
On the small study table, there was a photo of the young couple smiling happily. There was also a bunch of faded, plastic roses in a small bottle on the table.
At this moment, Feng Wei was lying on the bed in the middle of the room. He was only wearing his underwear, and his upper body was naked.
His face was pale and his body was stiff. He looked a little scary.
When Lu Yuan saw this, he could not help but frown and hurriedly went forward.
Ma Lingling caught up and shook Lu Yuan’s hand, shrieking,”

“Lu Yuan, I know you are a high school student. You must have a way to save Wayne, right? I beg you to save him!”

Lu Yuan checked Feng Wei’s heartbeat and breathing and found that they had stopped. His body was even a little cold.
He frowned and looked at Ma Lingling, who was holding him, and said in a deep voice,”
1
“Miss Ma, please calm down. Wayne is dead.”
“What? I don’t believe it! Wayne said he was going to marry me, how could he die! How could he just leave me alone?”
Ma Lingling’s face was pale as she screamed.
Lu Yuan grabbed her shoulder with one hand and shook her. He said,”
1
“Miss MA, please calm down. Did you notice anything unusual before? Could it be that he had a heart disease or something?”
How powerful was Lu Yuan?
After being shaken by Lu Yuan, Ma Lingling sobered up a little.
Her pupils gradually focused as she looked at Feng Wei on the bed. She covered her mouth and squatted by the bed, crying silently.
Lu Yuan looked at Ma Lingling, who was crying silently, and he felt a little sympathy for her.
This young couple seemed to have a good relationship, but they were separated by heaven and earth in one night.
No one would be able to accept it.
After Ma Lingling cried for a while, Lu Yuan said,”
1
“Miss Ma, can you think of what happened before? Did he have any disease before?”
Ma Lingling shook her head and wiped her tears. She choked,
“Wayne has always been in good health. He doesn’t have any diseases.”
“He has been in good health?”
Lu Yuan frowned, feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed.
“Then do you have any guesses who would want to harm him?”
Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Ma Lingling pondered for a moment. Then, she seemed to have thought of something and widened her eyes.
“When I was sleeping, Wayne made a sound of discomfort. I looked at him and saw a vague shadow on him, but Wayne’s voice stopped soon, and the shadow disappeared. I thought I was wrong, so I fell asleep again.”
As she said this, Ma Lingling’s face turned pale. She looked at Feng Wei on the bed and silently shrank back.
Lu Yuan’s heart also exploded.
Looking at Feng Wei’s ashen face, he had probably died from suffocation. In addition, there was the black shadow that aA Lingling had mentioned.
1
Could it be that damned thing?
No way, again?
“Are you sure?” he looked at Ma Lingling with a grave expression.
Ma Lingling’s eyes were filled with confusion. She nodded and then shook her head. She sobbed,
“I … I was too muddleheaded when I was sleeping. I don’t know if I really saw it.”
Lu Yuan was silent.
He took a deep breath and slowly said, “Miss Ma, you can call the police and let them handle this.”
Ma Lingling nodded her head!
She hurriedly made a call.
Lu Yuan took a deep look at Feng Wei’s corpse on the bed.
The black shadow had probably appeared again.
Last time, it was his room. He didn’t expect it to be directly next to his room this time.
They shouldn’t be coming for him, right?
That black shadow only appeared at night, and he was in the land of origin at night. The black shadow definitely couldn’t find him, so it attacked the people around him?
Lu Yuan immediately thought of Li Qinghe.
“If that’s the case, will that black shadow deal with sister Qinghe when the time comes?”
After the mutation incident, almost everyone had distanced themselves from Lu Yuan. The only person who truly cared about him was Li Qinghe.
Lu Yuan had always treated Li Qinghe as an older sister who cared about him.
Although that was his predecessor’s matter, after accepting the memory, Lu Yuan empathized with it and naturally did not want anything to happen to Li Qinghe.
But on second thought, Li Qinghe was basically out at night, so the probability of something happening was low.
He just had to tell her not to come back tonight.
As Lu Yuan was thinking this, the door of the room outside opened.
Ma Lingling, who had just called the police, heard the sudden sound of the door opening. She shivered and grabbed Lu Yuan’s clothes.
Lu Yuan glanced at Ma Lingling.”
“Miss Ma, let go of me. I’ll go out and take a look.”
Ma Lingling nodded and carefully let go of Lu Yuan’s clothes.
Lu Yuan walked out of the room and into the living room. He saw Li Qinghe with a cigarette in her mouth and closing the door with his foot.
She was holding a bag of buns and two bags of soy milk in her hands.
When she saw Lu Yuan, she smiled and said,”
“Little brother Yuan, I knew that you definitely haven’t left the house yet. Have you been busy cultivating and not going to class? I bought your favorite meat buns. ”
As she spoke, she raised the bun in her hand.
Lu Yuan looked at the bun in Li Qinghe’s hand and felt his heart warm. He smiled and said,”
“Elder sister Qinghe, I’m rich now. I’ll pay for your meals in the future.”
“What do you mean? Your wings have hardened have they? I still have enough money to treat you to a bun. ”
Li Qinghe picked up the cigarette in her mouth with her fingers, blew out a smoke ring, and glared at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan smiled helplessly and was about to say something when Li Qinghe suddenly raised her brows in surprise.”
“That’s not right. Little brother Yuan, why did you come out of that young couple’s room?”
