By the time Feng Chun realized something was wrong and looked back, it was too late.
"Monsters, you monsters, get out of here!"
However, seeing that Feng Chun was alone, the swarm of mutated, poisonous red ants, which had been eyeing him covetously, charged forward even more arrogantly.
Feng Chun had previously kept a stun gun for self-defense on his desk, which he picked up the moment he noticed the mutated rats and mutated red poison ants.
However, two fists are no match for four hands, let alone a dense swarm of ants, each only half the size of a thumb.
Ah~
Suddenly, a sharp pain came from my trouser leg.
Feng Chun stretched out his leg and shook his foot, and before he knew it, other ants had crawled onto his body from his other leg.
Once the ants have taken hold, they're not so easy to shake off. They open their mouthparts wide and bite through the thin summer clothes.
Just now, after Feng Chun was bitten on the leg by a mutated poisonous red ant, his leg started to go numb.
Now that other places were being bitten by these mutated poisonous ants, his thoughts began to become blurred.
Just two minutes later, Feng Chun, who had been poisoned, collapsed to the ground unconscious.
The mutated red ants that were already attacking him from all sides swarmed forward upon seeing this.
Ever since Wei Laoda and his six thugs ignored the government's announcement and began to hunt down mutated rats, the Jinxiu Haoting residential community has been subjected to their retaliation from time to time.
Moreover, each time they attack, they also drive nearby mutated poisonous red ants to act together.
Ever since those mutated, poisonous red ants tasted human flesh, they seem to have developed an obsessive interest in it.
Gradually, not only the Jinxiu Haoting residential area, but also any place where humans lived, was overrun by mutated rats and mutated poisonous red ants.
The extreme heat continues, and while the population of Xu Lai Community is dwindling, the number of mutated rats and mutated red ants appearing in the community is increasing.
Even more terrifyingly, after this situation lasted for more than two months, the water in the two deep wells in the community also dried up.
"These two wells are completely dry, what should we do?"
The remaining 300-odd residents of the community stood in disarray on the cracked ground, carrying empty buckets.
When the newly appointed person in charge of the community, Xiang Qiu, arrived at the scene with two subordinates, he hurriedly brought everyone the announcement that had just been released.
"Quiet, quiet!"
Xiang Qiu's two subordinates took out megaphones and began to maintain order in the noisy crowd.
A few minutes later, the crowd fell completely silent, and Xiang Qiu, a tall man in military uniform, stepped forward.
He cleared his throat and said loudly to the now quiet crowd, "We just received a notice that the safe base is ready. Starting tomorrow, the government will arrange special vehicles to take us there!"
"Is the safe base completed?"
As soon as Xiang Qiu finished speaking, the crowd below erupted in cheers again.
They were aware that the local government and military were building a security base.
This safe base not only has houses built for everyone to live in, but also equipment specifically designed to drive away mutated animals and insects.
Furthermore, I've heard that the security base has an underground pipeline system for desalinating seawater that leads to the southeast coast.
In other words, this safe base will also provide water, although the water will be desalinated from seawater.
"Yes, it's all built. Tomorrow it'll be our turn to move in. Today, everyone pack your things and hang in there for just one more day, and things will get a little easier for us..."
Xu Lai, who came down to fetch water, along with her father Xu Haiguo, the Xiao Rui couple next door, and Lu Ping and Leng Jiajia from the Lu family, heard the good news and exchanged happy glances, their eyes filled with undisguised excitement.
These three households are the only three families in this community that have not lost any members since the start of the torrential rain disaster.
Especially the Xu family. Although Xu Lai possesses a magical space, once it gets dark, no one is allowed to stay inside.
So every night, the family is exhausted from dealing with mutated animals and insects.
Xu Lai and Xu Haiguo were extremely excited to be able to move into the equipment that came with its own defenses against mutated animals and insects.
At least once they arrived at the base, their whole family could finally get a good night's sleep.
As for what life would be like at the base, the family eagerly awaited it.
The End~
