Chapter 217 Mutation



Many laws and regulations before the end of the world are no longer suitable for the social form after the end of the world, so they have to constantly revise the laws and regulations to suit the new situation.

After discussing matters with the people from the Ministry of Justice, the Minister prepared to hold his daily meeting with members of the military.

As a result, as soon as the people from the Ministry of Justice opened the door of the conference room, they saw the chief's left adjutant standing outside the door pacing back and forth with an anxious look on his face, and it was obvious that he had been waiting for quite some time.

Everyone knows that the chief strictly forbids discussing personal matters during working hours. Therefore, Adjutant Zuo was so anxious but did not dare to disturb the chief's meeting. It was obvious that he was anxious about personal matters.

As soon as Adjutant Zuo saw the people from the Ministry of Justice coming out, he immediately rushed into the conference room, followed by people from the Military Department.

"Chief, something happened. Major Pei, Professor Ye, and Miss Fu encountered mutant ants." Adjutant Zuo said hurriedly.

Chief Fu's expression changed slightly. If Adjutant Zuo hadn't been by his side for a long time, he wouldn't have been able to tell.

Deputy Zuo was too anxious and spoke louder, and those congressmen and people from the Ministry of Justice who were about to leave heard it. No matter what they thought in their hearts, everyone showed anxiety on their faces and followed Deputy Zuo back to the meeting room.

The military quickly released the two videos. Adjutant Zuo said, "General, do you still remember the death of the former commander of Base No. 7?"

Chief Fu looked at the white video and asked, "Is it caused by these mutant ants?"

"It's probably true." Adjutant Zuo said in a somewhat dry voice.

Everyone present knew that the former commander of Base No. 7 had died in an inexplicable and bloody manner. Since no one could find the murderer, everyone was paying close attention to this matter.

Now, hearing Adjutant Zuo say that the murder case in Xiong's chest was most likely caused by mutant ants, everyone gasped and a term emerged in their minds: man-eating ants.

The white area they saw in the video was actually a colony of white mutant ants, and the two "snow piles" raised in the white were the two military trucks driven by Major Pei and his team.

Without any analysis, everyone can see that the two military trucks have been overwhelmed by these mutant ants. If these mutant ants are really man-eating ants, then the people in the car are probably in great danger.

Chief Fu stared at the two "snow piles" and asked, "Didn't Shibin send a distress signal?"

Everyone could hear that his voice was a little hoarser than before.

"Major Pei did not send a distress signal. He only sent a message to the military about their encounter with the man-eating ants. The military immediately located them and sent the troops from Base No. 7 to rescue them. However, it would take them more than an hour to get there at their speed..." Adjutant Zuo's voice sank.

Needless to say, everyone knew it was too late by then.

In Chuanyang Province of the Blue Water Planet, there has always been a notorious insect, that is the Chuanyang ant, which is also known internationally as the man-eating ant.

This type of ant is the size of an adult's little finger. It usually lives in groups in grasslands, with each nest containing hundreds of thousands of worker ants.

Every time the Sichuan ants go out hunting, they form a red ant tide that is over a thousand meters wide and hundreds of meters long. Wherever they pass, animals that do not have time to escape will be reduced to a skeleton in less than five minutes once they are climbed onto by the Sichuan ants, with all their skin and flesh eaten away.

In the past, except for the people of Chuanyangzhou, the rest of the people on the Blue Water Planet were extremely grateful that only Chuanyangzhou had such "specialties".

However, because the harm caused by the Sichuan ants is so great that it is difficult to prevent them, five years ago, several countries in Sichuan and Oceania joined forces and spent two years to eliminate the ants. After the operation was completed, no traces of Sichuan ants have been detected in the past three years.

The former base commander of Base No. 7 and his team of skilled soldiers were eaten to pieces in just a few minutes. There were people in the military department of Base No. 1 who suspected that it was the man-eating ants.

It was only because their Flower Country had no man-eating ants since ancient times that they denied this suspicion. Who would have thought that after the end of the Flower Country, there would be mutant man-eating ants.

However, when we heard that it was a white ant, we suspected that it might be a mutation of termites.

Although they still don't know whether this mutated termite is as scary as the Sichuan ants, Major Pei is a third-level wind-type mutant, and all fifteen people in the car are mutants, yet not a single one of them was able to escape.

From this point it can be determined that these mutant ants are moving very fast and approaching silently.

"How long have they been trapped?" asked Chief Fu.

"It has been half an hour so far. We have measured that the mutant ant colony is twelve kilometers long and ten kilometers wide. Now almost the entire ant colony has crossed the road." Adjutant Zuo said reluctantly.

The convoy included Chief Fu's grandson, granddaughter and daughter-in-law. Adjutant Zuo was afraid that the chief would not be able to handle it, as he was already old.

"Start from the beginning and show me the details." said Chief Fu.

Deputy Captain Zuo picked out the key points of the satellite video to play, because they started filming that part specifically after receiving the information from Major Pei, so the scene they filmed from the very beginning showed that the two cars were trapped in the ant colony.

"Stop!" After watching for a few minutes, Chief Fu suddenly shouted, and Adjutant Zuo immediately paused the video progress.

Director Fu rewound the video bit by bit, then stopped at a certain point and enlarged the picture to the maximum.

Everyone then realized that at the location where the vehicle was, in the white area wrapped around the vehicle, there was a spot that showed a bit of golden luster at this point in time.

This bit of golden luster was so tiny that no one noticed it except the chief.

"Their car is gray-green. Major Pei is taking Miss Wen with him to Base No. 7." The chief's right adjutant knew Major Pei's itinerary and understood what was going on. He said in surprise.

Although the right adjutant had been in the conference room with the chief all the time and was not very clear about what had happened, he had been ordered by the chief to investigate and observe Wen Yubai, so he was very clear about Wen Yubai's abilities.

"When Miss Wen's superpower was still at level two, she was already able to conjure up a metal net out of thin air to protect herself and escape from the mouth of a level three mutant snake. She had already become a level three superpower user more than ten days ago, so there was no way she would surrender." The right adjutant became more and more confident as he spoke.

Adjutant Zuo also expressed his doubts: "We also find it strange. Major Pei is a third-level wind-type ability user. Even if he can't kill these mutant ants, he should be able to use wind power to prevent the mutant ants from approaching them and lead everyone out. It shouldn't be like he did nothing. At least when he found out that the mutant ants were sending us messages, he was still awake."

"The golden light has appeared again, look." Another military congressman who was staring at the live video screen shouted and told Chief Fu a time point.

Chief Fu adjusted the video interface he was watching to that time point, and saw that a whirlwind seemed to suddenly blow above the white "snow pile", blowing away the white ants climbing onto the roof, revealing a large area of ​​gold.
