Chapter 87: Frozen Zone Insect Swarm (Twenty-three)
The tires rolled over the tundra ice.
The anti-skid chains left two shallow marks under the ice, which were soon covered by goose-feather-sized snow and ice particles.
There was no trace of any wireworms left under the ice.
Xie Mian was sitting in the passenger seat, holding Goose Egg, while Lin Heng was driving. The trunk was filled with various supplies.
"Brother, I can actually do it alone."
Xie Mian looked at Lin Heng's face. He didn't see any sadness on it. The more this was the case, the more worried he became.
My brother has always been a strong man, and it seems that nothing can overwhelm him, but he knows everything about Fu Ze.
Ever since he met his brother, his brother has been with Fu Ze and they are inseparable.
"Xiaomianmian, brother, I'm really fine!"
Lin Heng smiled, his eyes gentle. His long black hair was casually tied up behind his back.
A song was playing in the car, it was a children's song.
"My dear little rabbit, open the door. Open it quickly, I want to come in. If you don't open it, I won't open it. I won't open it for anyone until my mother comes back..."
Car exhaust becomes longer and longer in the frozen area, like a long gray tail.
Fu Ze stood at the highest point of the observation station, staring at the car as it eventually turned into a small black dot.
"Send someone to follow."
"yes."
The gate of the base reopened, and a black car drove out, facing the wind and snow, and drove steadily on the ice.
There were five people in the car, all of them were B-level insect followers.
Suddenly, a strange sound came from under the ice, as if something was struggling under the ice. Before the five people could react, the ice suddenly cracked and countless black wireworms crawled out from under the ice.
"Why are there still insect monsters?" an insect-loving person asked in panic.
Seeing this, the insect-loving person sitting by the window opened the window a tiny crack and shot out insect energy.
His insect can be a stinger.
The black stingers pinned several of the wireworms to the ice. But it wasn't enough. More bug monsters broke through the ice, moving swiftly across it, closely following the car.
"Quick, speed up!"
The other three insect followers also reacted and released insect energy.
The black wireworms kept hitting the car body, making a creepy sound.
At the same time, Fu Ze saw this scene in the monitoring room of the observatory, and his face turned ashen in an instant.
He had originally thought that after the last operation, the insect monsters had been completely eliminated and the base had returned to safety. However, the appearance of these iron wire worms completely shattered this fantasy.
He immediately contacted the vehicle through the communication equipment: "How are you doing? Hang on, we will send support immediately!"
While dodging the attacks of the iron wireworms, the people in the car responded with difficulty: "There are too many of these bugs, we can't hold on any longer!"
There were more and more iron wires on the ice. They were like thin black lines, chasing the cars and dancing wildly in the air.
"Notify the base to activate level four defense!" Fu Ze immediately gave the order.
On the ice, the car quickly got into a desperate situation.
Black wireworms shattered the car windows, burrowed into the interior, and opened their enormous mouthparts. The high-speed car began to spin and skid on the ice. Soon, the entire surface of the car was covered with wriggling wireworms, and from a distance, it looked like a wriggling black monster.
The wind and snow were getting stronger and stronger. I could not see the way I came or the way I was going.
Xie Mian and Lin Heng did not notice the thrilling and creepy scene behind the car.
The wipers swept the snowflakes on the windshield regularly, but despite this, the front was still white.
"Brother, let me drive. You take a break."
Xie Mian stroked the goose egg in his arms. He didn't know what was wrong with the goose egg today. There was a layer of white halo covering the eggshell.
Could it be that there is a shortage of insect stones?
"No, I'm not tired. We're almost at the edge of the frozen zone. If you're bored, just eat some dried mango."
As he spoke, Lin Heng used a rose whip to hook a schoolbag from the trunk.
Xie Mian opened the zipper and saw a box full of bright orange dried mangoes.
The sweet aroma of dried mangoes quickly filled the carriage.
An hour later, the car drove out of the frozen area.

The news of the resurrection of the frozen iron worms spread like wildfire, and the entire base was once again shrouded in death and fell into chaos.
Base emergency command center.
Fu Ze's tie was so tight that his Adam's apple rolled. He stared at the dense red dots on the surveillance screen with a gloomy face.
"Father, I'm applying to lead a team of insect followers to exterminate the wireworms in the frozen region."
Fu Linchuan turned his head and looked at his son, his face equally gloomy. He was about to agree with his son's plan when the door of the command center was suddenly pushed open.
"Minister, it's bad. A large number of wireworms have appeared in the base!" A soldier ran in with a pale face to report.
"Why are there iron worms in the base?"
"It was... it was brought back by the reconnaissance team. The last time they went to the frozen zone for reconnaissance, they were all parasitized."
The soldier recalled with horror what he had seen in the cafeteria: they were all eating in the cafeteria when the scout leader suddenly fell to the ground, yelling and rolling around. He yelled that there was something in his stomach, and then he used his hands to rip open his stomach.
In his stomach were a large number of black iron wire worms wriggling together in a ball.
After the reconnaissance team leader fell, several other members of the reconnaissance team also experienced the same situation.
There were many insect-infested people among the people eating in the cafeteria. They tried to chop them with knives, attack them with fire, and even freeze them, but nothing worked.
These wireworms don't seem to be filming anything.
They slithered around the restaurant like snakes, biting into people's skulls, crawling into their brains, and crawling out of their stomachs.
One goes in, and countless crawl out.
"Minister, the cafeteria is now full of wireworms! They reproduce too quickly, and we can't eliminate them all."
After hearing this, Fu Ze could no longer stand still and walked out without waiting for his father's order.
"Fu Ze, what are you doing?"
"Go and destroy the wireworms!"
"Bullshit, what can you do now? You stay here." Fu Linchuan was furious.
"What are you doing here? Waiting for the base to become a hive?"
Fu Ze no longer listened to his father's words. He took out the communicator and ordered Team One and Team Two to go to the cafeteria to eliminate the iron wire worms. Team Three, Team Four, and Team Five followed him to the East District.
We must not allow the iron wire worms to surround the base from both inside and outside, otherwise the base will be completely destroyed.
The frozen zone's surface had already shattered to within a thousand meters of the base's main gate. A dark mass of insect monsters floated on the ice, swaying from side to side like dense black seaweed.
Fu Ze launched the first attack. His clothes instantly shattered, and the muscles on his back split to the sides. Ninety dark red curved blade claws shot out from behind, piercing the insect monster.
Fu Ze's insect form is a centipede.
These bladed claws are like the feet of a centipede and can release toxins.
The iron wire cut by the claws fell to the ground and quickly turned into a pool of black sewage.
But this is far from enough.
There are just too many wireworms.
The bitten soldiers and insect followers turned into new insect monsters, and the people who were parasitized would have countless wireworms grow out of their stomachs.
"Brother Fu, we can't hold on any longer, let's retreat!" Penglai's sturdy body stood in front of Fu Ze and said with tears in his eyes.
The poison on the claw blade has been used up.
Fu Ze had no choice but to use his claws to crush the insect stones in the iron wire worm's body one by one.
Fu Ze did not respond to Penglai's question. Instead, he looked at the frozen area that had been occupied by black and asked, "Have you contacted Lin Heng?"
"Not yet! The people we sent out to look for them haven't returned."
Fu Ze took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and opened them after a few seconds.
"retreat!"
