Chapter 1054 Mutated Ants

Xiao Yuxin didn't really care about whether they were hired or not, but seeing that there were not many real strong men in the team of more than a hundred people, Xiao Yuxin worried that they would die before they arrived in the capital, and there would not be many left. As you can see, the evolution speed of those mutated creatures is quite terrifying.

After walking for a day and a night, they spent a lot of time cleaning the road due to the serious congestion, so they didn't go far. When a pile of corpses appeared in front of them, everyone's faces turned ugly. Because judging from the degree of corruption of these corpses, they probably died not long ago.

"Retreat immediately. I think this area is already unsafe. I don't know what is waiting for us ahead." Zhao Lizhou said. He is a member of this team, but after escaping from the camp, for some reason, he suddenly awakened his abilities and became an awakened warrior. Compared with him, his strength is not strong, so he does not have too much confidence in speaking.

"It's hard for us to come here. How can we go back? It's better to rush over in one breath. We may not really encounter anything." Chang Feng, who has a Mediterranean hairstyle, said in a low voice.

"No, we can't act blindly without knowing what happened!" Du Zhongwu said.

"When you find out how those people died, I'm afraid you are not far from death!" Chang Feng said tit for tat.

"Listen to me, my opinion is to leave the main road and continue forward. This will not affect our purpose, but also avoid the danger of taking the main road!" Lu Tianhua was a civil servant before the disaster, and later became a small leader in the camp. After awakening the ability, the treatment is much better than ordinary people, and people have regained some confidence.

Chang Feng curled his lips, if it was before the catastrophe. Lu Tianhua's official prestige might make him have some scruples, but now he doesn't need to hide too much, but he doesn't want to offend too much, after all, if Lu Tianhua can reach the capital alive, coupled with his double identity as an awakened soldier, his power in the official arena is justified. Small.

"Zhou Lanping, tell me your opinion too." Chang Feng looked at the female white-collar worker who had been silent all this time and asked.

"The minority obeys the majority. Anyway, I don't know much about it." Zhou Lanping glanced at everyone and said.

Lu Tianhua was not very satisfied with Zhou Lanping's answer, but there was a smile on his face: "It is impossible to go backwards, but it is equally dangerous to go forward. The only thing we can consider now is to change the route, we will go to the wilderness area .”

Seeing that no one spoke, Du Zhongwu said: "Then it's settled. Let's leave the road and go to the wilderness area. I will take the lead to explore the road."

Chang Feng was a little resentful. But there was no other way, the man with glasses didn't express his opinion at all. Xiao Yuxin is new here again. He didn't intend to ask either. And now obviously there are many people who agree with Lu Tianhua, although he is not reconciled, there is nothing he can do about it.

"Naive, do you really think that walking in the wilderness is safe?" Chang Feng murmured softly, but it didn't escape Xiao Yuxin's ears.

However, Xiao Yuxin did not interrupt from the beginning to the end. No comments were made either.

In fact, this place is not far from the capital city. If the roads are clear, it will only take six or seven hours to drive from here to the capital city. But most of everyone's time is wasted on avoiding mutant creatures, detours, and road blockages. wait on. Take this convoy as an example, it took several days just to detour!

Although Xiao Yuxin was able to solve these problems, she did not take action because she wanted to have a preliminary understanding of the current situation of the earth. In comparison, the physical fitness of the survivors has improved a lot compared to before the catastrophe. But for ordinary people, their physical strengthening is very slow, and there is no way to compare with mutant creatures, while the physical evolution of awakened fighters is not slow,

However, the proportion of awakened fighters among human beings is still too small, while the reproductive capacity of mutated creatures seems to be increasing. This is one of the reasons why those mutated creatures frequently attack human bases, because they also need to survive.

However, walking in the wilderness area may take longer, and as for the danger... that's hard to say.

Facts have proved that Chang Feng’s other abilities are not known, but the crow’s mouth’s ability is still first-class and powerful... It was okay when he first started walking in the wilderness, but after three hours, people’s vigilance was relaxed. At that moment, the danger came quietly...or in other words, the convoy ran into the danger.

Surrounded by a collapsed building, there are white bones everywhere, and there are even bones of some huge birds. At first glance, it is known that they are some kind of mutated birds, and it is not known how they died here.

It's not that Xiao Yuxin ignored it on purpose, but Du Zhongwu, who was the pioneer, was too careless. He didn't realize the danger was coming until a mutated ant came out of a cave in front... "Ready to fight !” Du Zhongwu shouted at the top of his lungs.

Mutated ants, their strength doesn't grow very fast, and the most powerful is only C-level strength, but compared to ordinary people, they are already strong enough. The worst thing is that the acid they spit is terrible, just Even steel can corrode.

First, a mutated ant with a head resembling a human head and tentacles standing up high like two TV antennas came out of the hole. The pair of antennae swayed slightly for a moment, as if sending some kind of signal, and then The second, the third...Like a fountain, black mutated ants appeared in the wilderness. In just a moment, the number became hundreds or thousands, densely packed, making a rustling sound, and crawled towards the convoy.

If this mutated ant appeared alone, it would not be a difficult monster for the awakened warriors to deal with. But when they form a certain scale, it will be very terrifying. Where they pass, there will be no grass, no chickens and dogs, and even those reinforced concrete buildings cannot be preserved. Xiao Yuxin now knows why those buildings collapsed so completely. These mutated ants are simply a mixture of butchers and demolition workers!

Facing the ever-increasing number of mutated ants breaking through thousands, everyone felt chills in their hearts. The hands of the survivors holding their guns kept trembling, making one wonder whether they could still shoot under such circumstances. , even those few awakened fighters all looked very pale. If the current environment allowed them to run away, most of them might have already left.

"What are you waiting for?" Xiao Yuxin took out an assault rifle used by orcs from the storage space, held it in her hand, and pulled the trigger without aiming at all.

boom!

With a deafening gunshot, a mutated ant rushing to the front in the distance exploded a dark red blood mist from its head, and its one-meter-long body fell to the ground with a bang.

C-level mutant ants, in front of this heavy firearm, are no different from other low-level mutant creatures. They can kill them with a single shot. Same.

After being attacked, the entire ant colony didn't move at all, and each one continued to move forward calmly, as if what Xiao Yuxin killed was not their companion. But Xiao Yuxin knew that this was only the surface. Those mutated creatures, in some respects, are similar to humans, they will also bury their dead companions, and even set up some branches and leaves in the place of burial.

Although Yingnian was the team leader, he was as stunned as everyone else when he saw so many mutated ants. But following Xiao Yuxin's shooting, Yingnian also came to his senses immediately. He grabbed his assault rifle and ordered everyone to attack... In the blink of an eye, the sound of gunshots echoed in the wilderness.

What shocked the survivors was that the bullets from the assault rifles they fired didn't seem to have a great effect on these mutated creatures. With their strong vitality, the bullets blasted bloody flowers on their bodies, but those The mutated ant only paused for a while, and then continued to crawl forward for at least a dozen shots. After destroying its biological structure in a large area, it fell down, did not die directly, and was still struggling.

Xiao Yuxin put the gun away and shouted, "Stop!"

Amidst the sound of gunfire, this order seemed a bit abrupt, and those who received the order all stopped shooting and looked at Xiao Yuxin in confusion.

When Lu Tianhua heard this, he shouted anxiously: "You are crazy, let them shoot, shoot!"

"Freeze!"

Xiao Yuxin smiled slightly, raised her hand, and a puff of cold air rushed out... The air suddenly dropped in temperature, and the whole ground began to freeze in a blink of an eye, and the nearest mutated ants turned into ice sculptures without accident.

"Yingnian, order the convoy to move on!" she called out loudly.

Yingnian, who had been anxious all along, and those awakened warriors were a little stunned when they saw this scene. Those aggressive mutant ants, how could they be dealt with before they showed their power with loud thunder and little rain?

If this is spread, who will believe it? This is a mutated ant, a character that even mutated beasts above c-level would not dare to provoke easily, a mutated ant colony where there is no grass growing in the places they move.

Xiao Yuxin smiled faintly. She was a bit proud of creating all of this by herself. As long as the method is suitable, what about mere mutated ants? This is just a small test.

Hearing Xiao Yuxin's urging, Yingnian finally came back to his senses, and he promised to order the convoy to set off immediately. Some mutated ants who were lucky enough not to be frozen into ice sculptures started running into the cave because of the sudden drop in temperature. Apart from dozens of ant-shaped sculptures, there were no other mutated ants... With the help of Xiao Yuxin, the convoy finally rushed out of this wilderness, not far from the capital.
