Fortunately, the entire vehicle is made using corrosion-resistant technology, so there is basically no risk of corrosion. As long as the tires are not punctured by stalagmites on the ground, there should be no problem.
Lu Yuan walked up to the car and gently knocked on the window, instantly startling the driver inside.
Then, seeing that the people standing outside were members of other groups, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense expression on his face instantly turned into surprise.
"Great! Great! You've finally arrived! If you hadn't come, we would all have died here! The explosion behind us just now..."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Listening to the other person's rambling, Lu Yuan interrupted them without hesitation: "Have your people get off the vehicle immediately! I'll help you drive away the termites in this area! But you still need to be careful! Fuel tankers can't get close to flames, so I have to provide support from a distance! Get your water guns ready! Understand?"
The series of commands left the other party somewhat bewildered. Just as they hesitated, Lu Yuan slammed his fist against the car window again and shouted, "I'm asking you a question! Do you understand?"
"Oh! I understand! I understand!"
The other party was clearly surprised that the person who came was so hot-tempered. They were puzzled as to whether this person was the leader of another group, and also why the person was wearing clothes that were not even those of a squad leader.
So the other party quickly picked up the communicator and connected with Wang Zhen, who then reported everything Lu Yuan had just said.
After listening quietly to the other person's words from inside the carriage, Wang Zhen said with some dissatisfaction, "Is it Chu Jialin who's here? That bastard loves to order people around! Damn it! He really thinks he's the captain! Damn it!"
However, Wang Zhen couldn't care less about anything else at the moment, so he began to organize people to prepare for leaving the warehouse.
Lu Yuan held a flamethrower and sprayed it at the nearby termite swarm, while Zhou Keke was responsible for keeping watch on the termites on the ground to prevent them from crawling into the carriage, and also waiting to meet Lu Yuan.
Not long after, the carriage door finally opened slowly. Lu Yuan checked the time and realized that it had taken them ten minutes to execute a single order, which showed just how inefficient they were.
Fortunately, a nearby water truck saw the first armored vehicle open its door and immediately turned on the high-pressure water cannon. The strong water jet drove away the termites, and the people inside the vehicle finally came out safely.
Upon seeing that everyone had come out, Lu Yuan immediately ordered them to close the carriage.
At this moment, a man of medium build, wearing a silver-gray protective suit, walked over and prepared to talk to Lu Yuan.
However, when the other party saw Lu Yuan, he was suddenly stunned. Only when he got closer and looked through Lu Yuan's mask did he realize that the person was not Chu Jialin.
Which group are you in?
"Group Seven!"
Lu Yuan replied irritably.
"What gives you, a mere team member, the right to order us around?"
Upon hearing that the other party was just a junior member of the seventh group, Wang Zhen immediately reprimanded him with some displeasure: "Didn't your superior teach you to salute an officer of higher rank than you?"
Lu Yuan stopped using the flamethrower and looked at the other man with disdain: "I haven't learned how to do this! And I don't need to salute you! Hurry up and get your men together to change the tire!"
The moment the flamethrower stopped, the swarm of soldier ants rushed over. The people who got out of the support vehicles were so frightened that they hurriedly dodged or pounded on the truck doors demanding that they be opened.
Seeing how poorly these people performed, Lu Yuan immediately understood that they were terrible teammates who would drag his team down sooner or later—no, not just his team, but the entire team.
Lu Yuan didn't want to say a single word to these people, not even a single syllable.
Although Wang Zhen was furious that Lu Yuan's behavior was a serious provocation, the current situation made him disregard everything else. After all, termites were everywhere, and the most urgent task was to restore the convoy's passage as soon as possible. Also, the situation of the tanker truck that exploded behind was still unclear, and he needed to know why the tanker truck had exploded when it was perfectly fine.
However, Lu Yuan had already started walking towards the direction of the exploded oil tanker.
Along the way, the ground was covered with all kinds of termite eggs, and the squelching sound was extremely disgusting, like stepping on blood plasma.
Zhou Keke followed closely behind Lu Yuan. When they arrived at the site of the tanker explosion, the tanker was still burning several minutes after the explosion, and the intense flames raised the temperature in the vicinity by several degrees.
The closer he got, the higher the temperature became. Lu Yuan felt that his protective suit was already full of sweat. In addition, he was wearing a lifelike human skin mask, so his whole body was sticky and uncomfortable.
Then, Lu Yuan reached out and brushed off the termites that were crawling on his body and tearing at his clothes. He walked to the spot where the tanker truck had exploded. There he saw a man outside, desperately swatting away the termites on his body. His protective suit was blackened by the fire.
Lu Yuan nodded to Zhou Keke, and the two immediately stepped forward.
Lu Yuan gently patted the other man's shoulder: "Brother, it's alright! The termites basically won't come near you anymore!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan crushed the termites on the other person's body. The other person turned his head and glanced at Lu Yuan, then immediately stood up with a grateful expression.
"Brother, help me!"
Lu Yuan pointed to the exploded tanker truck and asked, "The truck was perfectly fine, how could it suddenly explode?"
