Returning to the hotel with many questions in mind, Lu Sheng and the others went to bed hastily.
In preparation for the upcoming Qinhuai Heroes Gathering, Lu Sheng and his group have spent the last few days training their special abilities, except for eating and sleeping.
Lu Sheng secretly increased the dosage of the crystal kernel juice he added to their daily diet, which kept Zhang Xiaojuan and Xiao Yu awake at night several times.
At the K3 base, Lü Song's injuries are improving rapidly every day.
Those with superpowers naturally recover quickly, and with the addition of some medicine secretly given by Lu Sheng, they managed to recover about 80% before the Qinhuai Heroes' Gathering began.
Finally, the day of the Heroes' Gathering arrived. Lu Sheng and the others rushed to the bunker entrance early in the morning to meet up with Ma Dongmei and the others.
Chen Dongsheng's bunker can be described as an impregnable fortress, and the passageway where Lu Sheng and the others were located was the outermost layer of the entire bunker's security system.
After passing through this door, there is a 500-meter security buffer zone before you can approach the main building of the bunker.
"According to the requirements of this conference, every superhuman participating in the Heroes' Gathering must wear a uniform electronic collar."
The tall, beautiful hostess smiled and gestured to all the attendees with the electronic collar in her hand.
"Only dogs wear collars, what does Dongsheng Group mean by this?" someone in the group shouted in dissatisfaction.
"This is also to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the competition and to prevent cheating."
The guide smiled faintly as she glanced at the crowded queue at the entrance: "Not wearing a collar is considered a forfeit of your right to participate in this competition. Please leave within five minutes."
"Just because you have a little money doesn't mean you can be so great. You're wasting people's lives like this."
"That's right, they treat people like dogs."
Why should I put up with this humiliation?
There was much discussion in the group, but no one chose to leave.
People may curse each other, but their actions tell a different story.
Lu Sheng and her companions had no choice but to enter the bunker if they wanted to find Xiao Guozheng and his wife, and they cooperated fully by wearing electronic collars throughout the process.
"President Chen has prepared a separate lounge for everyone, one for each team, right here."
After undergoing multiple security checks and finally inspecting the electronic collars, the two teams of personnel followed the main force into the bunker.
The rest room prepared by Chen Dongsheng was on the basement level. There were exactly twenty rooms on the first floor, and each room door had a corresponding number written on it, which matched the ticket number in each team's hand.
"Before the official match, please return to your respective rest rooms and wait." The guide still had that formulaic smile on her face.
Xu Yi tossed the tickets to the K3 base and went into lounge number 1 with Lu Sheng and the others.
"There is surveillance."
Upon entering, Xu Yi gestured with his eyes to the upper right corner of the room, subtly reminding Lu Sheng with his lips.
Lu Sheng smiled faintly and snapped his fingers.
A loud bang immediately rang out in the upper right corner.
A burnt smell of plastic and electrical wires filled the air.
The camera had been destroyed. Lu Sheng took out a signal jammer from his spatial storage and was about to turn it on when a deafening sound suddenly came from outside the room.
"The first level has begun. Please survive in the lounge for 30 minutes."
It was the voice of the guide from earlier.
As the shrill announcement blared, the lounge door suddenly locked itself, and a solid iron gate instantly descended from the outside.
"Holy crap! Chen Dongsheng likes this kind of thing? Isn't this like imprisonment in a locked room?!" Zhang Xiaojuan subconsciously stood up, and just as she touched the door, her mouth went numb from the electric shock.
"Don't move."
Lu Sheng pulled Zhang Xiaojuan aside and warned her warily.
"Please cease resistance, all those with superpowers. The security door will open automatically in thirty minutes."
The broadcast stopped abruptly after delivering just this one innocuous message.
A burst of curses erupted from the adjacent lounges.
The lights in the room suddenly dimmed.
"Swish swish swish".
A series of chilling, shimmering sounds suddenly emanated from every corner of the room.
"Listen?"
Lu Sheng held her breath.
Everyone carefully shut their mouths, and only the sound of cautious breathing filled the room.
"Holy crap, what bit me?!"
Zhang Xiaojuan felt a furry touch coming from her arm, followed by a sharp pain.
He jumped up from the chair and swung his arm vigorously, and a round, dark shadow rolled off his hand.
As if a switch had been flipped, the rustling sound in the corner of the room grew louder and louder.
Lu Sheng took out an LED light from his spatial storage and stuck it on the wall.
After everyone's eyes finally adjusted to the light source, the scene before them sent chills down their spines.
Countless ants, each the size of half a palm, surged out from every corner of the room like a black tide.
Wherever these ants went, whether it was wall plaster or tables and chairs, they were instantly devoured clean.
They are like a bunch of small bulldozers coming together, leaving nothing but barren land in their wake.
"Oh no, ants are omnivores. If they eat all the furniture here, they'll eat us next."
Besides following celebrities, Sun Tiantian enjoys watching animal documentaries and has some knowledge of ant habits.
"Ants this big must have mutated. At this rate, they could eat the whole room in just two or three minutes."
No sooner had she finished speaking than a series of chilling screams came from next door.
In his previous life, Lu Sheng also experienced a large-scale attack by mutated ants.
Tens of thousands of mutated ants attacked, and the entire base was completely devoured into wasteland in just half an hour.
