Chapter 253: No Delay (12)
"You managed to eliminate so many mutant creatures with just one strike?"
"It's incredible."
"My God, how strong they must be."
Brother Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go down first. It's safe down there. Maybe we can deal with the thing on the door as well."
After passing through the mutant creatures that were scattered all over the ground, the four of them met Brother Zhang and others who had just come down from the defense wall.
Lan Jin asked, "What's going on?"
Brother Zhang briefly explained his analysis. In short, no matter what, these bugs at the door must be dealt with as soon as possible.
But Lan Jin and the others didn't know how to deal with these man-eating bugs.
Ling Jiang said, "Last time, we froze it directly on the ice. It was on the ground, and we left it there. You froze it on the door. Once the ice breaks apart, the bugs will come out again. If we're not careful, we could easily lose our lives."
"I know, but this is the base's main gate. If it weren't for the fact that it couldn't be demolished, I wouldn't be trying to get it down. Wouldn't it be easier to just leave the gate intact? But do you have any ideas for me to help with this?"
It’s not that we don’t want to help, but if we ask them to think of a solution at the moment, they won’t be able to think of one.
Lan Jin asked, "How did you get out? Why don't we first check what kind of mutant creature is causing trouble inside the base and deal with that one first?"
Brother Zhang pointed behind him and said, "You can't go through the door. We had to climb down. And even if we climbed up, there are a lot of bugs on the wall. You have to be careful when you climb. If you are not careful, you can easily get bitten."
Lao Gao was speechless, "Then how did you climb just now?"
The team member behind Brother Zhang said, "We just have to climb carefully. If a bug breaks through the ice, we will freeze it again immediately."
Ling Jiang took a look at the ice on the gate and knew that it was frozen layer by layer, but no matter which layer it was, it was not frozen particularly hard.
Ling Jiang thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I'll make some bait, break the ice to attract the bugs down, and then I'll freeze them on the ground. I'll find a way to remove them later. If I really can't get rid of them, I'll just let them freeze down there."
But as soon as these words came out, Ling Jiang also realized the problem. Extreme cold doesn't matter, but once it gets hot, these insects will either die or attack the base again.
When I think about the fact that all these mutant creatures are trying to save the big cat, I wonder if other creatures will come here next.
When Lan Jin thought of the bug, he immediately said in fear: "Brother Zhang, that bug, that bug didn't come over, did it?"
Brother Zhang knew what Lan Jin was talking about, but those multi-legged bugs were not really near the base, at least not within the range of his mental power.
"No, no."
But speaking of bait, aren't those of them who stay outside the base natural bait?
Lao Gao said, "We're standing outside. Believe it or not, these bugs will run straight towards us as soon as they come out. So I don't think we need to find bait. Instead, we should think of ways to get rid of the bugs."
One of Zhang's team members asked, "Can't you just use lightning? It worked on those mutant animals just now, so there's no reason it wouldn't work on little bugs."
Lao Gao explained, "It's not that the electric bugs can't be used, but the targets are too small and too scattered. If you focus them in one place, Sister Lan can shock them, but they're so scattered that if you shock one place, you won't be able to take care of the others. How much energy would be wasted? The key is that you can stop one side, but not the other. The bugs on the other side will just come over here."
This explanation does make sense, but we have to gather these insects together...
Wait, aren't all these bugs gathered together now?
Huang Jinghe said, "Sister Lan, can you block the ice and lightning bugs?"
"I can still hit the target from a distance. It would be great if I could electrocute the bugs directly, but what if the bugs don't get electrocuted and I electrocute them again to get them out of the ice? What then?"
…
"Level 1 alert, level 1 alert..."
Standing at the door, even though there were several doors between us, the alarm in the base was extremely clear. We really couldn't delay any longer.
Brother Zhang said, "Lan Jin, you try first. Everyone, take precautions. If we fail to electrocute the bugs and they break through the ice, we should quickly freeze them again."
Since Brother Zhang had spoken, Lan Jin naturally didn't hesitate any longer. As soon as his special ability came out, he immediately electrocuted the insect on the door.
A bolt of lightning struck from the sky, and without any need to wait, the ice that was tightly stuck to the gate instantly broke in the middle and fell to both sides. The insects finally found a breakthrough and crawled out.
At first, the bugs had no target and scattered in all directions, but soon they became bait outside the base, and the bugs immediately crawled towards them.
Seeing these insects surging like crazy, Ling Jiang immediately stepped forward and touched the ground with his hand to activate his ice ability.
In an instant, the insects swarming towards them were immediately frozen in the ice by Ling Jiangbing, without a single one escaping.
The ice layer in front of him was covered with frost and was crystal clear. Not only was it solid in appearance, but the insects trapped inside were also frozen and unable to move freely like before. It must be said that Ling Jiang was also a person with powerful superpowers.
It's even more powerful than the ice ability of the captain of the strongest superpower team in the base, but when I think about the captain losing an arm...
Forget it, it’s really not something they can worry about.
No matter what, this life is saved for the time being, but don’t be too happy too soon. After all, there are just as many bugs in the base as outside.
Brother Zhang said, "The base has three protective gates, and they're all open. This means that even if we eliminate this batch of bugs outside, there are still two more waiting inside. It's too early to relax now. Let's clean up the entrance first. I'll find someone to open it, and then we can go in quickly."
After saying that, without waiting for the four of them to leave, the team he led had already started cleaning up the area at the entrance.
At this time, Brother Zhang's intercom rang again, and Captain Li on the other side said, "Brother Zhang, how are you guys doing outside? I'm almost dying here."
When Brother Zhang heard this, he asked anxiously, "What's wrong? What's going on inside?"
Brother Li said, "I just received news that the big cat imprisoned on the fourth floor underground suddenly went crazy and injured many people. Now it has escaped to the second floor above ground. We have people guarding the outer gate, but I'm afraid..." It's difficult to hold it. "How are you guys doing?"
"Lan Jin and his four companions have returned. We just happened to meet them at the entrance to the base. The bugs outside have been cleared, and they are now planning to open the gate."
