There were still many ant nests left, and Lu Yuan did not find any place to enter the high-rise area along the way.
This made Lu Yuan feel extremely unhappy; this Ant Nest operation was a complete waste of time.
But at least it can alleviate the crisis in the fortress, which is good enough.
On the fifth day, Lu Yuan led his men to continue their advance, and following his method, they progressed quite quickly.
However, in order to give himself time to escape, Lu Yuan decided to return directly on the night of the sixth day.
After all, the agreed time was one week. If they didn't complete their mission by then, and that idiot Qian Jin blew up the rock layer, they would all be doomed.
The remaining termite nests still contained a large number of termites, and what shocked Lu Yuan and the others was that each termite nest was basically an independent habitat.
They guard each passage with their queen as the core, and almost the termites in each nest have no contact with the termites in other nests.
It was as if they had no connection with each other, which brought great convenience to Lu Yuan and his team's work.
"If these termites are all interconnected, we're really in big trouble!"
Chu Jialin nodded, a cigarette dangling from his lips, "Yes! These termites live independently, which does reduce a lot of trouble for us, but it's still quite good for us!"
Lu Yuan glanced at the other person: "Smoke less here!"
"Hehe! Isn't this just a habit?"
"By the way! I heard this morning that the expert group and the team leader's group got into another fight?"
Chu Jialin stubbed out his cigarette and nodded: "These idiots, they'll never stop causing trouble if they don't make a scene a few times a day! I don't know how they get so much energy every day. Why don't we just send them to the front lines too! That way they won't waste food in the back!"
Lu Yuan shook his head: "Forget it, I dare not use these old men. Who knows if they are capable of doing the work? It would be terrible if they caused us trouble again!"
"Alright! Looks like we'll have to send our own people in!"
Suddenly, the sound of an ant nest collapsing came from ahead. Lu Yuan stood up and looked into the distance. The crowd was clearly no longer as tense and excited as before.
As soon as one ant colony was destroyed, the flamethrower team members immediately moved up and sprayed the ant colony with their flamethrowers.
The raging flames burned the termites to death on the road. The group was now largely undisturbed by the termites, and many even had the illusion that the termites posed no threat whatsoever.
However, Lu Yuan was still not careless, because although these termites were no match for the flames, if something went wrong here, it could affect everyone.
Zhou Keke led the team forward into the next termite nest.
"Follow-up actions!"
Zhou Keke waved to the convoy behind her, and then the convoy started moving forward.
The flamethrower team members held the line at the front, and once all the convoys had entered the ant nest, the flamethrower team members began to tighten their formation.
The teamwork among them was quite skilled, and everyone knew what they were supposed to do at that moment.
Although shouts and curses continued to come from the vehicles behind, Lu Yuan didn't care at all. He had completely rejected the opinions put forward by these experts, and they had no chance to defend themselves. All they could do was complain to the team leader.
However, when the team leaders were refused entry into their team, a serious conflict arose between them and the expert team, and now the two sides are arguing fiercely.
Often, the two sides can argue for an entire day over the smallest things.
Suddenly, a gasp of surprise came from the team members in front.
Then, several team members surrounded one of the team members and began to swat the termites off his body.
"What happened?"
Lu Yuan stepped forward and asked a question.
The crowd dispersed, and the team member lying on the ground was now flushed and trembling uncontrollably, as if he had a serious illness.
Lu Yuan frowned and glanced at it, then shouted to the people behind him, "Medical team, get ready!"
But after calling out, no one came.
"Damn it! Where are the medical team?"
Chu Jialin quickly said, "We don't have a medical team, only an expert group!"
"Then let the expert team come and rescue them!"
The team member lying on the ground seemed unable to breathe. Lu Yuan wanted to help him open his helmet, but he was worried that termites would take the opportunity to crawl into his clothes.
Lu Yuan immediately shouted to the convoy, "Quick! Get them in the vehicles, clean out the termites, and then have the expert team come for a consultation!"
Then, Lu Yuan picked the person up and put him into a clean armored vehicle. After everyone cleaned up the debris inside the armored vehicle, they began to remove the protective suit from the team member's body.
To prevent the protective suit from being easily corroded and penetrated by termites, the inner layer of the protective suit is made quite thick.
It took a lot of effort for everyone to finally remove the other person's protective suit.
However, when they took off the other person's protective suit, everyone immediately noticed something was wrong.
The team member's body was covered with large and small, rotting wounds. The wounds varied in size, and many of them were festering and rotting, presenting a mottled appearance that was horrifying to look at.
