"Wenwen, if the mutant beasts continue to consume us like this, we will only be exhausted to death. Otherwise, you should leave."
Yue Xiwen laughed in anger. When had she ever been a deserter on the battlefield?
"The mutant spiders have surrounded the entire outside area. It's impossible for us to leave."
"No, it's possible. I will protect you and lead you to fight your way out." Zhou Zhengping's voice was hoarse.
"Are you crazy?!" Yue Xiwen looked at him in disbelief.
Is this still his gentle and selfless uncle?
At this time, if you want to fight your way out, it is impossible to rely on superpowers or cold weapons. The only possibility is... to use human flesh to pave the way for their departure.
"Uncle, we should think of a way now instead of thinking about how to escape." Yue Xiwen's mind was working rapidly, thinking about what else could be used.
"It's useless. I've thought about it. There are too many mutant beasts." Zhou Zhengping gritted his teeth and looked at Yue Xiwen with a determination to die.
Yue Xiwen was thinking of countermeasures while also having to deal with her uncle's negative energy. She was a little overwhelmed and shouted, "You said not to give up until the last moment. There can be no deserters on the battlefield!"
Zhou Zhengping believes that he is definitely not a deserter. He can be the leader of a place, so he is definitely not a coward.
But... this concerns his niece and his wife, and if they fight their way out, more people may survive.
Even if they fought desperately, they would eventually run out of strength. Those beasts were like perpetual motion machines and could not be killed at all.
When one is killed, another follows. Human strength and energy are simply no match for them.
"You know me. I'm not a selfish person. When life and death are at stake, I just want you to stay alive."
Zhou Zhengping's eyes revealed a look of struggle and pain. He was truly conflicted. If he were the only one to die, it would be considered a heroic sacrifice.
The problem is that if the people to be sacrificed include people he cares about... He discovered for the first time that people can be so selfish in the face of life and death.
"Wenwen, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have let you come here..." Zhou Zhengping held her hand, which was cold from being washed by the rain, full of self-blame.
Yue Xiwen had no time to listen to what he said. She was sure she could come up with a solution.
"It's all the fault of those damn bugs. It's all my fault for getting you into trouble."
Zhou Zhengping was still mumbling something, but Yue Xiwen only heard the word "insect".
"Spiders are also insects, right?!" Even if they mutate into spiders half the height of a human, they are still insects, right?!
Yue Xiwen jumped up excitedly and cheered in the rain, "Uncle, get up quickly, we are saved."
"There's insecticide among the supplies we brought. It's sure to be useful!"
Before, they had always overlooked a problem. The mutant giant spider was so huge that they didn't think that spiders were also insects.
Zhou Zhengping thought she was crazy. It was raining outside. How could insecticide protect her from rain?
Before the end of the world, when spraying insecticide in a room, doors and windows must be closed to prevent air circulation so that insects can inhale toxic gases.
Even if I take out some insecticide and spray it on the bugs, there are spiders as big as a hill! What insecticide can kill them?
Yue Xiwen didn't want to say much, time is life now.
But she promised: "Uncle, just listen to me this time. It's better than your bad idea."
"If the insecticide doesn't work, I still have something to save my life."
Before she left, she brought some Grape B&B's teleportation business cards with her, which she could use to save her life in an emergency.
She fully understood her uncle's mentality when he asked her to take her aunt with her. A soldier who could disregard his own life and death might not necessarily be indifferent to his wife's life and death. This was human nature.
She didn't want to use the business card transfer because she didn't want to leave so many people here behind.
If she and her uncle left, the people here would really just be left waiting to die.
There weren't that many business cards to send, so she could only do this...
In a way, she is as selfish as her uncle.
She brought Zhou Zhengping to the room where the space ability users came with her to Le'an base. When the mutant beasts attacked, the space ability users and some key protected personnel stayed in the safest room. They were all key protected persons.
She rushed forward excitedly and asked.
"Where's the insecticide? Take it all out!"
The space ability user who was questioned found an open space and placed more than a dozen bottles of insecticide.
"Captain Yue..."
He swallowed back the question he was about to ask; now was not the time to talk about it.
Yue Xiwen picked up the insecticide on the ground, put a few bottles in her pocket, and handed a few bottles to Zhou Zhengping.
"arts……"
Zhou Zhengping was just about to utter a syllable when Yue Xiwen rushed out as if escaping.
She wasn't very sure, after all, it was raining, so she could only give it a try.
Even if there was only a sliver of hope, she wanted to try. It was better than just running away without doing anything.
When she came out, she brought out a long sword, sprayed insecticide on the sword, and let the rain wash it away. She held the sword and looked for mutant beasts everywhere.
Near the wall, more and more mutant spiders poured into the base, each one bigger than the other.
Suddenly, a deafening sound came from far away. Yue Xiwen stopped looking for the target and turned to look at the source of the sound.
The sound became louder and louder, accompanied by a foul smell.
Yue Xiwen covered his mouth and nose with his hands, his face pale, and rushed forward to meet the stinky smell with his sword in hand.
A mutant spider came in front of her and bared its teeth at her. She didn't waste any words and started to scold it.
Zhou Zhengping, who followed, watched helplessly as the mutant giant spider, which had just been showing its fangs and claws, became stuck.
The spray lasted for more than ten seconds, and the mutant spider was controlled for more than ten seconds. It twitched a few times and fell limply.
Yue Xiwen's face lit up with joy, and he raised the insecticide in his hand and shouted, "It works!"
She did it, she found a way to cope!
Zhou Zhengping was stunned for a few seconds, and all he could think was, "This is unscientific!"
How is it possible that insecticide can be used outdoors in the rain?!
Then I thought, the end of the world, zombies, and strange natural disasters, which one can be explained by science?
Without thinking much, he turned around and ran towards the room with space-related abilities.
Soon everyone had a few bottles and distributed the insecticide over a small area.
The situation changed quickly after the pesticides were distributed to everyone.
The soldiers guarding the wall took the insecticide and sprayed it towards the bottom of the wall. Sure enough, the mutated giant spiders below did not dare to come near.
The distance is too far and the spraying time is not enough, so the mutant spider cannot kill directly.
That’s enough. As long as we stop the mutant spiders from moving forward, it will not be a problem to clean up the spiders that run into the base.
