Chapter 596 Termite Threat



In the past few days, there has been no movement at the entrances and exits of the urban area. The current situation is that they are surrounded but not sealed off, and the people at the gates have been replaced by special forces personnel.

Lu Yuan's daily work involves running back and forth in the industrial zone, like a sweep, packing all the inspected equipment into his dimensional space.

The remaining people were still organizing things in the industrial area, but it would still take a long time to fit all the hundreds of thousands of pieces of equipment into the dimensional space.

Lu Yuan wanted to organize all the equipment together at once to save himself the trouble of moving it around later. So, he was working hard now so that he wouldn't have to worry about these things in the future.

That day, Lu Yuan was still busy dealing with the issue of moving equipment.

Looking at the locations of some equipment listed on the list in his hand, Lu Yuan selected the nut processing plant.

Just as I was about to go out, I suddenly felt that it was raining outside, and it was a light rain.

Wang Mingming immediately handed over an umbrella from the side.

"Brother Lu, you should take your umbrella!"

Lu Yuan frowned slightly: "Why didn't we receive any notice that it was going to rain?"

Wang Mingming shrugged: "Who knows! The weather has been really strange lately. It only rains in small areas, and there's no weather forecast. We're starting to suspect that there's something wrong with the control system in the high-rise area."

"Okay! The roads are going to be difficult to travel when it rains! Damn it! Bicycles are such a rip-off. By the way, I'm completely out of fuel? I'd rather have a motorcycle!"

"Brother Lu, it's not that we don't want to give it, it's just that all of it is being used for equipment repair! Right now, everyone is scrambling for fuel, and this is a rule set by Brother Zhou Tong!"

"Sigh! Alright! We'll do as Lao Zhou says! Next time I run into Zhou Tong, I'll ask him to see if he can spare me some fuel. This is such a waste of time!"

"Okay! I understand!"

So Lu Yuan got on his bicycle, held an umbrella in one hand, and rode towards his destination.

What frustrated Lu Yuan was that the rain was strange; in some places it was pouring, but in others it was just a light drizzle, and in some places it wasn't raining at all.

Lu Yuan didn't pay much attention at first, but when he came out of the last factory, it was pouring rain outside.

Seeing the torrential rain, Lu Yuan frowned slightly: "Why is it raining so hard all of a sudden! How the hell are we going to get back?"

Just then, a car horn sounded outside.

Lu Yuan was very happy.

Then the car drove in, and Wang Mingming, holding an umbrella in one hand, ran towards Lu Yuan.

"Brother Lu! I've come to pick you up!"

"Sigh! Thank goodness you came to pick me up, otherwise I really wouldn't know how to get out of this awful place!"

After saying that, Lu Yuan followed the other person into the car.

The rain was pouring down on the windshield like water being poured, making it difficult to speak without having to raise your voice.

Wang Mingming said with a smile, "I found a car from an island nation, it's very fuel-efficient! It's because of this car that Brother Zhou was willing to give me the fuel! But the sound insulation of this car is really not very good! The body panels are too thin!"

"Haha, that's good! Hey! It seems like it's stopped raining up ahead! Drive faster!"

"OK!"

Wang Mingming sped up again and drove out of the rain-soaked area.

After stopping the car, Lu Yuan looked at the sky. Since it was evening, he couldn't see very clearly, but he felt that the rain was falling in a strange way.

Has it ever rained this heavily here before?

Wang Mingming thought for a moment: "It doesn't seem like it's ever rained this hard before!"

"That's strange. I also felt that such heavy rain usually doesn't happen. Even if it rains, the rainfall is usually kept within a certain range!"

After saying that, Lu Yuan squatted down on the ground and touched the water behind him.

When Lu Yuan put his hand in, he immediately felt that the water contained a lot of sand.

"Something's wrong! Something's wrong! There's something wrong with the rainwater!"

After speaking, Lu Yuan looked at his own clothes, and then at Wang Mingming's clothes.

"My clothes are waterproof, are your clothes waterproof?"

Wang Mingming was slightly taken aback, then quickly nodded: "My T-shirt underneath is soaked!"

"Take it off!"

So Wang Mingming took off her T-shirt and stood shirtless in front of Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan reached out and took the clothes into his pocket to catch the rainwater in the rainy area.

After about ten minutes, Lu Yuan brought the clothes over.

The once white T-shirt had turned grayish-yellow and was covered with a thick layer of mud and sand.

Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan and Wang Mingming immediately understood what was going on.

"Damn it! Someone's actually targeting this area!"

As they were talking, the rain suddenly intensified.

Lu Yuan happened to see the raindrops carrying a pile of mud as they fell.

"Watch out for Brother Lu!"

Wang Mingming reacted and pulled Lu Yuan over.

With a "thud," a wet, sticky lump of mud landed right in front of me.

Lu Yuan and Wang Mingming looked up with lingering fear, and after confirming that there was no problem, they immediately took the mud and went to the car.

"Brother Lu, there's something in the mud!"

Lu Yuan also saw something wriggling inside, so he gently brushed away the soil with his fingers.

A white ant, about the size of a peanut, appeared on the mud. The ant was angrily writhing its body, and a thin, sharp barb on its tail seemed to want to stab Lu Yuan's palm.
