Chapter 238: Insect Invasion
"I'll keep you alive."
"Then the vice president must keep his word." Su Yan chuckled.
"..." Huo Qing saw that she didn't actually believe what he said. Indeed, in the current situation, it was not certain who would protect whom. He touched her high nose bridge, turned around and left the cockpit a little embarrassedly.
Arrange people to prepare gas masks and weapons.
Su Yan stayed to repair the plane.
Huo Qing deliberately left someone behind to protect her.
"I heard the vice president call you Jerry?" Su Yan took two bottles of water and threw one over.
Jerry has regular features, a tall and strong body, well-developed muscles, and chocolate-colored skin. He caught the water bottle steadily with his big hands and replied, "Yes, the other two, the blond one is called Charles, and the brown-haired Lu He. The dead one is called Carter, a new driver recruited by the club."
"Whose is Carter?"
"When I joined the association, there was no problem with my background information."
Su Yan looked out at the vast green grasslands, "Have you ever been to Zone Zero?"
"I've explored the edge. If you're fully equipped, it shouldn't be difficult to survive. But if you go inside, I don't know what we'll encounter." Jerry drank half a bottle of water in one breath.
Su Yan drank slowly, "Do you think we can get back safely?"
"Yes. Thanks to you for landing on the grassland. There may be some dangerous beasts, but there is enough oxygen. The red desert ahead is also called the Eye of Death. The lowest temperature is 82 degrees Celsius. The oxygen is thin. Without survival equipment, you will pass out in less than fifteen minutes."
Suddenly, a red distress signal came from the sky.
Jerry's face suddenly changed, "Oh no, the boss is in danger."
Su Yan immediately threw him a backpack full of bullets and said, "There's a walkie-talkie in it. Hurry over. I'll be on standby here."
"Okay." Jerry took the backpack and immediately ran towards the direction of the flare.
Su Yan also picked up two pistols and put one into the shaft of her short boots, which she had modified to fit a pistol. Holding one in her hand, she walked around the plane and found nothing unusual.
The intercom in the cabin rang, and Huo Qing's voice came out, "Xiao Xia——"
Su Yan picked up the intercom, "Received, Vice President."
"It's troublesome."
Huo Qing's voice sounded very serious. Su Yan's heart skipped a beat. "What's going on?"
"Red-backed ant, be careful. Charles is dead. Jerry, run--" Huo Qing almost shouted at the end.
Su Yan didn't know what the red-backed ant was, but judging by Huo Qing's reaction, it should be very dangerous.
She opened the backpack she brought and took out a can of disinfectant powder. Insects have a very sensitive sense of smell, and they avoid this kind of chemical products. She sprinkled the disinfectant powder around the plane, but it was not enough, so she took out a large bucket of cleaning agent from the cargo hold of the plane and finally circled the plane.
This can only prevent ants from approaching. If they come over, you still have to kill the insects.
Just as Su Yan was busy looking for tools to kill ants, a red-backed ant as big as a soybean quietly approached the plane...
Su Yan saw it from the system map.
He immediately came out of the cabin with a pistol in one hand and a small picnic flamethrower in the other.
Red-backed ants fell next to the disinfectant powder.
Su Yan picked up a piece of gravel and crushed the red-backed ant. Unexpectedly, its skin was quite hard, a bit like a shell, and it took some strength to break it.
"It's indeed troublesome." Su Yan frowned slightly and looked into the distance...
Three figures came into view.
It was Huo Qing and his group, and behind them, there was a dense mass of red, which was the army of red-backed ants.
Su Yan immediately turned around and went back to the cabin, and when she came out she was holding a few grenades in her hands.
That's why she saved the plane, there were enough weapons!
Huo Qing saw the grenade in Su Yan's hand and signaled her to throw it.
Su Yan pulled the ring of the grenade and threw it towards the red-back ant army!
"Boom--" After a loud explosion, it hit the center of the red-backed ant army!
Huo Qing saw this and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, "Continue——"
Su Yan threw four grenades in succession, killing most of the red-backed ant army. The remaining ones began to retreat and no longer chased Huo Qing and his group.
In the end, Huo Qing brought Jerry and Lu He back to the protection circle of the disinfectant powder.
My legs are weak from running.
Panting, Huo Qing looked at the circle of disinfectant powder and gave Su Yan a thumbs up, "Water."
Su Yan handed each of them a bottle.
"Red-backed ants are very vengeful, they will definitely come again." Huo Qing said seriously. If it weren't for the messy appearance of running all the way, it would look more imposing.
Su Yan was currently treating the red-backed ants as ordinary ants, but judging from the situation just now, they were clearly not ordinary ants. Her circle of disinfectant fans was not very safe.
Lu He saw with his own eyes that his good friend Chaer was entangled by the red-back ants and was quickly devoured without leaving even a bone...
"Zero Zone is horrible!"
"Didn't you say you've been to Zone Zero?" Jerry panted.
"I was just bragging." Lu He smiled bitterly, "I was afraid you would look down on me."
"What's there to brag about? No one would want to come to this damn place." Jerry shook his head.
Huo Qing slowly finished a bottle of water and asked Su Yan for another one, "Who else is there in Charles?"
Lu He replied: "He has a girlfriend who is pregnant, but the child is not his. It is the child of his girlfriend's cheating on him with her ex-boyfriend."
Suddenly, even the air became quiet.
"Let's wait until Ping An leaves here first." Su Yan pointed at a faint hint of red in the distance.
"It's such a beast! They don't even let me take a break." Jerry stood up and looked at the red-back ant colony that was getting closer and closer.
Su Yan threw a rocket launcher at him, "Do you know how to use it?"
"A side dish." Jerry grinned.
Huo Qing said: "Take out all the grenades."
Su Yan moved a box, which contained at least a hundred items, and placed it on the ground.
Lu He looked at Su Yan in surprise, "You are quite strong."
"How else can you be a cleaner?" Su Yan threw a grenade at him.
Lu He caught it in a panic, "Xiao, be careful."
Su Yan ignored him and went back to the cockpit. Leaving here was the best solution.
Lu He: "What does she mean? Does she look down on me?"
Jerry loaded the shells and adjusted the firing angle while saying, "The safety isn't pulled, what are you afraid of?"
Lu He looked at the grenade in his hand and said, "...I, I am being cautious. If it really explodes, all three of us will be finished."
"Stop talking nonsense." Huo Qing said to Lu He, "Go to the warehouse and see if there is anything useful."
"Yes, Boss." As long as he didn't have to face those red-backed ants, he would do anything. He had a bit of trypophobia, and when he saw those red-backed ants, his head went blank and his reaction became slow.
The rocket launcher was fired, and a big hole was blasted directly in the center of the red-backed ant army!
The group of red-backed ants were not afraid at all and continued to rush towards them.
