Chapter 238: The Insects Attack
“I’ll keep you alive.”
"The vice-president must keep his word." Su Yan chuckled.
"..." Huo Qing saw that she actually didn't believe what he said. Indeed, in this situation, it was not certain who would protect whom. She touched the bridge of her nose, turned around and left the cockpit with a little embarrassment.
Arrange for people to prepare gas masks and weapons.
Su Yan stayed to repair the plane.
Huo Qing deliberately left one person behind to protect her.
"I heard the vice president called you Jerry?" Su Yan took two bottles of water and threw one over.
Jerry had regular features, a tall and strong figure, well-developed muscles, and chocolate-colored skin. He firmly caught the water bottle in his big hand and replied: "Yes, the other two, the blond one is named Char, and the brown-haired one is Lu He. The dead one is named Carter, the new driver here."
"Whose person is Carter?"
"When I entered the meeting, there was no problem with the background information."
Su Yan looked far away at the vast green grassland, "Have you been to Zone Zero?"
"I tested it on the edge. If the equipment is complete, it is not difficult to survive. If you go inside, you don't know what you will encounter." Jerry drank half a bottle of water in one breath.
Su Yan drank slowly, "Do you think we can go back safely?"
"Okay. Thanks to you landing on the grassland, there may be some dangerous beasts, but the oxygen is enough. The red desert in front is also called the Eye of Death. The minimum temperature is 82 degrees, and the oxygen is thin. Without survival equipment, he would pass out in less than fifteen minutes.”
Suddenly, a red distress signal came from the sky.
Jerry's expression suddenly changed, "No, the boss is in danger."
Su Yan immediately threw him a backpack full of bullets, "There's a walkie-talkie in it, hurry up, I'll be on standby here."
"Okay." Jerry took the backpack and immediately ran in the direction of the flare.
Su Yan also picked up two pistols and put one into the boot of her short boots. She had modified the inside so that it could hide a pistol. Holding one in hand, I walked around the plane and found nothing unusual.
The intercom in the cabin rang, and Huo Qing's voice came from inside, "Xiao Xia—"
Su Yan picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Roger, Vice President."
"Trouble."
Huo Qing's voice sounded very serious, and Su Yan's heart skipped a beat, "What's going on?"
"Zerg Redback Ant, be careful, Char is dead. Jerry run-" Huo Qing almost shouted the last part.
Su Yan didn't know what a red-backed ant was, but judging from Huo Qing's reaction, it should be dangerous.
Opening the backpack she brought, she took out a can of disinfectant powder. Insects have a very sensitive sense of smell, and they avoid these chemicals. Disinfectant powder was sprinkled around the plane, but in the end it was not enough, so a large bucket of detergent was dug out from the cargo hold of the plane, and the plane was circled around.
And this can only prevent ants from approaching. If they come, you still need to kill them.
While Su Yan was busy looking for tools that could kill ants, a red-backed ant as big as a soybean quietly approached the plane...
Su Yan saw it from the system map.
He immediately came out of the cabin with a pistol in one hand and a small flamethrower for picnics in the other.
The red-backed ant fell next to the disinfectant powder.
Su Yan picked up a piece of gravel and crushed the red-backed ant. Unexpectedly, its skin was quite hard, a bit like a shell, so it took a little effort to crush it.
"It is indeed troublesome." Su Yan frowned slightly and looked into the distance...
Three figures came into view.
It was Huo Qing and the others, and behind them, followed by a dense red, was the red-backed ant army.
Su Yan immediately turned around and returned to the cabin. When she came out again, she had several grenades in her hand.
That's why she kept the plane, there were enough weapons! Huo Qing saw the grenade in Su Yan's hand and signaled her to throw it away.
Su Yan pulled out the ring of the grenade and threw it towards the Redback Ant Army!
"Boom--" After an explosion, it hit the center of the red-backed ant army!
When Huo Qing saw it, a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes, "Continue-"
Su Yan threw four more grenades in succession, and most of the red-backed ant army was destroyed. The remaining ones began to retreat, no longer chasing Huo Qing and the others.
In the end, Huo Qing took Jerry and Lu He back to the disinfectant powder protection circle.
My running legs are weak.
Panting and looking at the circle of disinfectant powder, Huo Qing gave Su Yan a thumbs up and said, "Water."
Su Yan handed each of them a bottle.
"The red-backed ants are very vindictive and will definitely come back." Huo Qing said with a serious expression. If it weren't for running away all the way, the image would be a bit messy, and it would look more imposing.
Su Yan now treats the red-backed ants as ordinary ants, but looking at the situation just now, they are not ordinary ants. Her disinfectant powder circle is not very safe.
Lu He saw with his own eyes that his friend Char was entangled by a swarm of redback ants and was quickly devoured with no bones left...
"Zone Zero is terrible!"
"You said you've been to Zone Zero." Jerry gasped.
"I was bragging." Lu He smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid you will look down on me."
"What's there to brag about? No one would want to come to this hellish place." Jerry shook his head.
Huo Qing slowly drank a bottle of water, and then asked Su Yan for another bottle, "Who else is there at Cha'er?"
Lu He replied: "I have a pregnant girlfriend, but the child is not his. It is the result of his girlfriend cheating on her and her ex-boyfriend."
Suddenly, even the air became quiet.
"We'll wait until we get out of here safely first." Su Yan pointed to a faint blush in the distance.
"It's such a beast. It doesn't even let anyone take a break." Jerry stood up and looked at the red-backed ants getting closer and closer.
Su Yan threw him a rocket launcher, "Can you use it?"
"A side dish." Jerry bared his teeth and smiled.
Huo Qing said: "Take out all the grenades."
Su Yan moved a box with at least hundreds of items in it and placed it on the ground.
Lu He looked at Su Yan in confusion, "You are quite strong."
"Otherwise, how can I be a cleaner?" Su Yan threw him a grenade.
Lu He caught it hurriedly, "Little one, be careful."
Su Yan ignored him and returned to the cockpit. Leaving here was the best solution.
Lu He: "What does she mean? Does she look down on me?"
Jerry loaded the cannon and adjusted the firing angle while saying, "The safety is not on. What are you afraid of?"
Lu He looked at the grenade in his hand, "...I, I am being cautious. If it really explodes, all three of us will be killed."
"Stop talking nonsense." Huo Qing said to Lu He: "Go to the warehouse and see if there is anything else useful."
"Yes, boss." As long as he doesn't have to face the swarm of red-backed ants, he can do anything. He was a bit cryptophobic. When he saw those red-backed ants, his head buzzed and his reaction was slow.
The rocket launcher was fired, and a big crater was blasted out in the center of the red-backed ant army!
The group of red-backed ants were completely unafraid and continued to charge towards them.
