"Holy crap! What the hell is that thing? Such a huge ant?"
Wang Mingming suddenly had a bad feeling: "Brother Lu... could it be a mutated termite? They say these things can even bite through dikes!"
Lu Yuan frowned, and an idiom suddenly came to mind.
A thousand-mile dike can be destroyed by an ant hole!
"Damn it! How did these ants manage to burrow thousands of meters underground? Do they think they can even drill through layers of rock to dig their nests?"
Lu Yuan was terrified, but just as the two were feeling sentimental, a whooshing sound suddenly came from above.
"Oh no! There's something there!"
Without a second thought, Lu Yuan immediately took Wang Mingming and hid in the dimensional space.
The next second, Lu Yuan peeked out into the dimensional space.
The car, which had been perfectly intact just moments before, had now been smashed into a pile of scrap metal by a heap of discarded steel.
These steel structures were covered with termites the size of peanuts.
"Brother Lu, how is it?"
Wang Mingming asked in a low voice from the side.
"Phew! We were almost dead! That was close! That was close!"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Wang Mingming's face turned deathly pale: "What...what exactly happened? Could it be that termites really gnawed through these things?"
Lu Yuan looked at the large ant in his hand, and then led Wang Mingming to Wan Fang's laboratory.
"Let me see how this ant mutated!"
Wan Fang noticed the gloom on Lu Yuan's face and then focused his gaze on the large ant in Lu Yuan's hand.
"Holy crap! Such huge ants? Or termites? Where did they get them?"
Lu Yuan recounted what had happened, and Wan Fang immediately frowned: "You suspect this was done by someone?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "That's right! It must have been done by someone!"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Wan Fang's heart sank: "Then... if these termites really reach a certain number, then... wouldn't the entire industrial zone be destroyed?"
"Yes, I asked you to help me figure out just how fast these termites reproduce!"
"No problem... but if we want to know the termite reproduction rate from just one worker ant, we need at least a queen ant!"
"Um... Queen Ant, I probably don't have one right now! And I might not be able to get one! Can you estimate it, analyze the gene chain and stuff, and make a rough judgment?"
"OK!"
After explaining these things, Lu Yuan took Wang Mingming back to the industrial area. Fortunately, the collapse in the sky above was not very obvious, with only a few scattered fragments falling.
The car was completely totaled. Lu Yuan found some white clothes among the scrap metal and then returned to the dimensional space, asking Wan Fang to see if he could find some medicine to kill the ants.
The two dodged and weaved their way towards the survivor base.
Upon arrival, almost everyone was affected by the collapse, and the hastily organized rescue team has already begun its work.
Many people were injured by falling rocks and mud from the collapse.
Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan's heart sank.
"Damn it! What on earth is going on?! Who did this?"
Zhou Tong, standing to the side, gritted his teeth in hatred, listening to the sound of falling rocks smashing the house above him, his knuckles turning white from clenching his fists.
"It seems our evacuation plan needs to be moved up! If the collapse above continues, we might not be able to escape! In many places, it's no longer raining, but rather precipitation!"
Lu Yuan nodded solemnly.
"Old Zhou, here's what we'll do: you go and arrange for the evacuation! Get all the wounded to a safe place first! I'll take the men in first!"
Zhou Tong glanced at Lu Yuan: "What about all this equipment?"
"I can do it myself!"
"No way! It's too dangerous for you to do it alone! And with so much equipment, how can you possibly handle it all by yourself? I absolutely disagree!"
Seeing Zhou Tong's reaction, Lu Yuan chuckled softly: "Brother Zhou, don't forget, I have the ability to hide at any time! No way..."
Before he could finish speaking, a loud "boom" came from above.
"What happened?"
Lu Yuan and Zhou Tong quickly looked outside.
Because it was nighttime, the lights outside weren't very bright, so it wasn't very clear what was happening outside.
However, the place where the loud noise just happened seems to be not far from here.
Just then, Shen Hu came running over, completely soaked.
"Oh no! The fortress has collapsed!"
"What? The fortress has collapsed?"
Shen Hu wiped the water from his face and nodded: "That's right! More than a dozen brothers were crushed under the boulder!"
"Let's go! Let's rescue them!"
Without a second thought, Lu Yuan followed Shen Hu and ran towards the scene of the incident.
Upon arrival, they found that the roof of a wool textile factory workshop had been completely torn open, and the surrounding walls had also collapsed. Due to the constant water seepage, there was no dust around.
Lu Yuan was the first to rush in, and Shen Hu and Zhou Tong, who were standing to the side, couldn't stop him, and they were immediately filled with anxiety.
"Let's go! Let's go together! We'll live together, we'll die together!"
Shen Hu gritted his teeth and rushed in with Zhou Tong.
Once inside, Lu Yuan saw dozens of workers already rescuing the wounded.
One by one, the corpses were carried out of the ruins, their bodies bleeding profusely from what looked like gaping holes.
