Chapter 576: End of the End of Summer (1)
She confirmed the strength of the stone slab and then hid in a corner of the basement where she had a small bamboo bed she had prepared in advance.
Because there was a strong wind during the Grain Full season, they hid in the basement.
So considering the importance of the basement, a bamboo bed was arranged in it in advance.
There is also a stone jar containing clean water for use at any time, and then there are some dry food and fruits, which will definitely last until the next solar term.
Although it doesn’t add any attribute points, at least it can fill my stomach.
Now that it has come to this, no one needs to be picky about how to live, as long as we are alive, it’s good enough.
On the public screen, many people, if they found that their area had not been targeted by locusts, would quietly leave the basement and prepare a large basin to fill with soil.
Follow the instructions of [Love to Eat Kindergarten].
[Golden Dragon Who Likes Muscle Pigs]: "Fortunately, I found a good thing that can temporarily protect you from being targeted by locusts!"
[Chopper Rabbit]: "What is that?"
As soon as Jin Long said this, the public screen was boiling again. Some people who had not been completely targeted by the locusts were always wondering if they could still be saved.
They urged him to come up with this solution, even if it cost some gold coins.
[Golden Dragon who likes muscle pigs]: "Heather! The locusts will be dizzy from the stench in an instant. If there are other foods, they will put the heather aside first."
[Golden Dragon Who Likes Muscle Pigs]: "I'm planting heather right now. The other locusts haven't come here yet. I just discovered them. I'm going to take this opportunity to get more soil and then quickly retreat to the basement."
[Golden Dragon who likes muscle pigs]: "I was thinking about maximizing the benefits of these heather flowers before I go back. I just cut down that branch and got a huge bunch of flowers!"
Jinlong was digging the soil around the heather while cutting the branches of the heather. The smell was really pungent.
But for the sake of survival, just endure it.
[Chopper Rabbit]: "Then I'll buy two. I want the kind that looks like a tree trunk, with many small branches. Don't give me a small one."
[Love to Eat Kindergarten]: "Forget it, I just can't stand the smell of heather. Locusts shouldn't be able to get in here, and even if they do, heather can't protect me."
[Xiao Liang who loves eating radish]: "It's the same as what the above said. If the locusts haven't targeted it yet, you can buy some heather and go out to dig the soil as a last-ditch effort to save it."
[Xiao Liang who loves to eat radishes]: "As for the locusts that are already right above our heads, we can only wait to die."
It is indeed as Xiao Liang said, some people did not consider this aspect, and now locusts are eating the things piled at the entrance of the basement.
The sound of the locusts grunting as they ate was so close to them that they could hardly hear any other sounds.
Heart pounding -
Beat very vigorously, because soon you won't be able to beat anymore.
[Cup Boy]: "Damn it, the pieces of my stuff are about to fall off, I can't survive - how about I just light a fire and burn it out."
He was already feeling uneasy in the basement. The locusts were eating very quickly and didn't give him much time to think.
He looked at the news on the public screen and the only gold coins in his pocket: "I'm going to die soon, what do I need gold coins for?"
So I looked for what I had and went to the public screen to buy some things suitable for starting a fire. Finally, I looked at the public screen information and transferred some gold coins to those players who seemed to have a high chance of survival.
Then he took out an insecticide. This thing is poisonous and can kill players if they consume it.
As quickly as possible, [Beige Zai Zai] prepared all the equipment, then took a big gulp of the insecticide.
Force yourself to swallow it with water.
The next second, the health bar above his head began to turn purple and began to lose health at an extremely fast rate.
Once these inedible things are eaten, they will directly cause fatal injuries in the game, and the blood loss will be hundreds every few seconds.
A few thousand HP can only last for about a minute.
His abdomen began to ache, and he took out a tinderbox, which was the most common thing in the territory that could be used to start a fire at any time.
As his sight was occupied by the white flour all over the ground, there was a wooden chair under his feet. When he saw those red-gold locusts coming down from the entrance and swarming in densely—
"Let's all die together!"
The ignited tinder was thrown and landed on the wooden chair. The chair quickly caught fire and came into contact with the semi-floating flour. Before [Cup Boy] could be poisoned to death, it exploded with a loud bang.
[Beige Zaizai]'s consciousness was completely destroyed by the explosion. He closed his eyes and didn't care about anything anymore.
As for the other level seven locusts, many of them were killed by the explosion. At least those who rushed to the front to eat were all gone.
The seventh-level earth locust is more yellowish-brown in color, but has no wings and cannot fly. It has bright red stripes on both sides of its body.
These stripes give them extremely powerful gnawing ability, to the point where they will not even spare bricks and tiles, and their digestive ability is also extraordinary.
But... the defense is poor. If it weren't for the health bar of the level 7 monster, players would be able to kill the low-level earth locust with low defense.
There was an explosion, and the locusts with low defenses suffered heavy damage. Those that were close were killed directly, and their bodies were unfortunately caught on fire. When they fell into the group that tried to retreat, the fire was passed to all their companions.
The players on the public screen were not clear about what had happened. Only a few people received a transfer of gold coins after seeing [Beige Zai Zai]'s comment.
Suddenly I felt very strange.
As a result, when a few people sent a message to ask what kind of charity this was, the comment by [杯仔仔] was deleted.
It was wiped out in front of everyone.
Indeed, many people’s messages were erased from the public screen at this time, which meant the loss of life. The first person to react was [Xiao Liang who loves eating radishes].
He quickly figured out what Cupboy was thinking: "I can't escape anyway. Being eaten by locusts is too torturous a way to die. I might as well arrange a way for myself to die."
[Chopper Rabbit]: "So he might have started a fire? But being burned to death is also very painful."
[Golden Dragon who likes muscle pigs]: "It doesn't mean he died by fire. He could have taken poison or committed suicide. All are possible. He just lit a fire before he died and killed some locusts with him."
After Jin Long said this, Qiao Tutu reacted. Not only did he have to arrange his own death, but the locusts would not be able to eat his corpse if there was a fire.
[Xiao Liang who likes radish]: "He is a ruthless person."
