Chapter 165 A "Guest" from Another Region
After occupying this harvesting area, Rong Yi had to develop muscle memory by killing ferocious insects all day long. During this time, fighter jets would occasionally assist them in bombing ferocious insects at a slightly farther distance.
After each task was completed, Rong Yi would wave his hand, regardless of whether they could see it or not.
The next day, Rong Yi and Wei Yanqing had just finished tidying up the house when they saw a tank army like a steel torrent, and troops walking beside the tanks.
The tanks bypassed them, and the rest of the army advanced. A soldier with several badges on his shoulder stopped in front of them. "Thank you for your help in resisting the ferocious insects. We are the 13th Division of the 2nd Army Corps, here to fight on orders from headquarters."
There are strange, capable individuals along the borders who kill ferocious insects, and can even conjure up their corpses out of thin air. Everyone in the army knows about these things.
The headquarters' instruction is to cooperate with them as much as possible, unless the conflict is irreconcilable.
Rong Yi: "Hello, my name is Rong Yi. How far do you need to go after you take over this place? There is a buffer zone of less than 20 kilometers ahead. If you get too close, the swarm of ferocious insects will be stressed."
I can't bring myself to say to these indigenous people that this is our harvesting area.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged officer said, "Thank you for informing me." He then gave instructions over the walkie-talkie to set up positions there and be ready to fight at any time.
The two men saw the group disperse, some people set up tents, and everyone got to work.
Wei Yanqing silently transmitted his voice: "They look like they're going to hold out to the death."
Rong Yi looked around curiously, but in his mind he thought, "We definitely have to defend it. There are so many people in the inland area. If it is breached, there will be at least a hundred ferocious insects of the seventh or eighth rank."
If the indigenous people had any research on the ferocious insects, they would know that if these creatures ate well, their strength could increase at a rate that was like a rocket, changing every single day.
“We have also prepared a tent for you two. The army will provide you with all the food and supplies you need during the defense period. We are very grateful for your help during this time, otherwise the residents of the city would be in grave danger,” the middle-aged officer said.
They rushed here at breakneck speed. There have been too many things happening in China recently. There are several meteorite landing sites in China, and many troops were dispatched to carry out missions. Finally, they controlled the spread of the insect swarm and killed them all.
Until the border incident, they did not expect these neighboring countries to fall so quickly.
Given the long southern border, the fact that they were able to reach it in such a short time demonstrates the effectiveness of top-down execution.
Wei Yanqing sensed Rong Yi's unease. "We'll accept the tent, but we don't need the food and supplies."
Knowing they weren't ordinary people, the officer in the middle nodded calmly, "Alright, someone will take you to the tent later." He had a lot to do.
After everyone left, Rong Yi sighed, "So many people suddenly came... no wonder they gave us this land so readily."
Wei Yanqing: "That's not quite right. As long as this country hasn't fallen, you'll encounter these troops anywhere along the border."
After eradicating the domestic ferocious insects, the authorities mobilized the vast majority of their forces to the border, and even recalled some retired soldiers, determined to encircle and defend the borders of the country.
The tents were pitched, and the cooks got busy. Rong Yi also saw several medical tents.
Because of their encampment, the team advanced another two kilometers or so.

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!" Song Hang spat out the sand and gravel in his mouth. "What bad luck, to run into a winged bug."
After leaving Kolo, they arrived at a desert location. Due to their haste, there was some chaos at the airport, and the aircraft sustained minor damage, which did not affect takeoff. However, after flying for a while, the damage began to spread until it affected landing.
After a harrowing emergency landing in the desert, Song Hang and his group walked for several days. With the high mountains not far ahead, they felt they were about to escape their predicament.
Unexpectedly, a cluster of winged ferocious insects appeared. After the fight, a lot of sand and gravel got into their mouths, all of which were stirred up by the flapping of the insects' wings.
The teammate dug out the insect crystal and put the insect corpse into the storage item.
The girl, who had her hair tightly tied in a bun for easier movement, wiped the dust off her face. "It looks like we should be able to get out of the desert today. I wonder what the situation is like inland."
Song Hang turned his head and said, "I asked someone I know, and she's inland. She said the situation is under control."
One team member said, "Why don't we ask how things are now? We've been walking in this desert for days and we can't even get online."
Song Hang thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll ask."
Rong Yi, who was far away on the southern border, received a message from Song Hang. The young man hadn't made any moves for several days, and she had completely forgotten about him.
What's the situation inland right now? My teammates and I crash-landed in the desert and have been traveling for days without getting any network signal.
The inland areas are fine; underground shelters are being built. It's just that neighboring countries are falling one by one, and the impact is reaching border cities.
Upon receiving accurate information, Song Hang immediately told his teammates, "We found out that the inland areas are fine, but the border is a bit dangerous."
Then Rong Yi sent another message: [An army has arrived at the border. They will join the player in resisting the attack on the border. If you have the chance, go to the border. There are many ferocious insects there. The remaining ferocious insects in the inland areas have been basically wiped out.]
Seeing this, Song Hang stopped in his tracks. What? No ferocious insects inland?
After experiencing a series of thrilling pest control efforts in Kolo, I felt a sense of admiration upon hearing this news.
"What happened? Weren't you told that the inland areas were safe? Could the border have been breached?" the team member asked worriedly.
Song Hang waved his hand, "It's okay. Just say there are no ferocious insects in the inland areas, they're all at the border. I should go to the border when I get there, otherwise I won't be able to dig up a single insect crystal in the inland areas."
The current situation is that they have no idea where they stand in this country.
"Let's find a place with people quickly, and then we'll see where we are," one of the team members suggested.
Song Hang felt that they should get out of the current situation first. "Then let's hurry up and go. We can drive when we get to a place with muddy ground."
They have a car in their inventory, but it's not safe to drive in the desert; one wrong move and the car could be totaled.
With limited storage space and a limited number of vehicles, they had to proceed with caution, so they had to reach the muddy areas to drive, otherwise they would have spent several days traveling in the desert.
As for other items, it would be a waste to use them unless there was a dangerous situation. Who knows how big this desert is or whether we are heading in the right direction?
Just when they thought they were about to be liberated, Song Hang heard a noise, and the next moment a spinning propeller appeared on the horizon ahead, followed by the fuselage of a helicopter.
After the first one, there was the second and the third.
Song Hang's team members stopped in their tracks.
"A helicopter? Have we been detected?"
"I don't know, but I saw it. There were people in camouflage sitting on it."
If you see people wearing camouflage uniforms, you can tell with a little thought that they are most likely military personnel.
Song Hang suddenly realized, could it be that they are currently in the border area?
