Due to the transfer of a large number of military personnel, the system gave a lot of capsule backpacks. Shi Manmei took down a few and distributed them to everyone on this mission. The main purpose was to facilitate the storage and replacement of weapons, and the collection of specimens.
At this moment, the train started again. Sun Annie said with some concern: "I think there are still many worker ants alive. If we leave like this, what will happen if those things continue to reproduce?"
Ge Hongyu explained: "Normally, red fire ants form a single-queen colony. After the queen dies, the worker ants gradually die out within 3-6 months, and the nest is abandoned. If their colony nature hasn't evolved and replaced, the worker ants in this area probably won't survive for long."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
Yang Benxin couldn't help but say, "These animals and plants are truly terrifying. The temperature outside right now could easily kill a person, yet they've managed to withstand it completely and have even evolved to this point."
"I can't imagine what they will evolve into if the temperature returns to normal."
There was a moment of silence in the car, and everyone felt a chill all over their body.
Humans originally thought that extreme cold weather was the biggest survival crisis, but they didn't know that the real crisis was frozen under the ice.
Now it seems that the extreme cold weather has given humans some breathing room.
Once the ice thaws, these mutated animals and plants will come out in droves... I can’t imagine how humans, who have been abandoned by the path of evolution, can resist?
Shi Man looked at the timer for the next stop on the train and suddenly understood why this mission was called "The Road to Life in the End of the World".
She had a guess, but perhaps it would have to wait until Line 6 was fully opened to be confirmed.
Next stop: Stadium Road, mission requirements: Kill (0/1000) mutated ice worms.
Shi Man took a deep breath and said to everyone, "Get ready, the next round is ice worms again."
With the Pure Land train as a defensive shield, killing at the next few stations was much easier. They could directly use drones to carry out large-scale fire killings, and Shi Man and the others could go down to clean up the battlefield.
The alien creatures encountered were basically rats, ice worms and ants.
Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone's attention was always highly concentrated. Even the strongest person would feel tired.
Everyone in the car was exhausted from the journey.
At first, the milk was still tempting for worms, but later on, it couldn't be stuffed down.
"It's almost the last stop..."
Sun Anni looked out the window.
At this time, the train also broke through the ice underground and drove towards the ground. The last stop was relatively far away, and the underground track turned into the high-speed rail track on the ground, and the final destination was Hongdu Mountain.
There was no scenery around, only ice.
The original ground was flooded and frozen into ice, and the train was like an icebreaker, rushing under the ice and forcibly breaking the road. This section took a long time, about half an hour, to reach the Hongdu Mountain station.
Everyone took the time to rest.
Shi Man couldn't help but frown as he looked at the task interface that kept showing 'Loading'.
The alien creatures that needed to be killed at the previous stations were refreshed quickly, but the alien creatures at the Hongdu Mountain station had been silent for a long time.
Shi Man felt that something was wrong. She suspected that this last wave might be a big move for her!
She couldn't help but think of the news of the collapse of Hongdu Mountain in her previous life.
In fact, she had always wondered why Mount Hongdu collapsed, and this doubt only intensified after she personally visited the underground shelter.
After today's mission, Shi Man had a guess in his mind.
Could the real reason for the collapse of Hongdu Mountain in the previous life be related to alienated creatures?
Or perhaps, before humans even realize it, that so-called human refuge has become the lair of a powerful alienated species... This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
