Volume 1 Three Months After the End of the World Chapter 68: Complete Fall
"What!? Isn't it still a long way to go? Then I..."
Fu Wei looked at the experiment he was about to complete, then looked at Yang Ao who was panicking and anxious. He gritted his teeth and poured everything into the glass bottle without caring about the blending ratio and order. "Let's go!" He picked up the bubbling glass bottle and went out with Yang Ao.
Shang Qian was wearing the small leather boots given by Shen Jin. They were thick and warm, and made a hissing sound when she stepped on the black bugs. At this moment, she was leading everyone to escape to the villa.
It’s only a few hundred meters away, and everyone can get underground in less than a minute!
Shen Jin secretly cursed himself for being so careless today. He actually took it for granted that zombies would only use physical attacks and that they posed no threat at a long distance. He would never make such a low-level mistake under normal circumstances!
It must be that Hu Shou’s words today were too shocking, causing him to forget his usual steady style.
"Fuck, what is that!"
When Shen Jin and everyone else reached the edge of the villa, they discovered that the entire villa was surrounded by black bugs!
The black worm devoured everything around it while constantly growing larger, from a peanut-sized particle to a thin line , and then to a thick line. It evolved hard teeth and began to gnaw on everything. All wood was ground into sawdust under its fine teeth!
Shen Jin's villa has been completely covered. If anyone wants to get in, they have to break into the pile of insects!
“Ah! Ah! Ah!”
The women screamed in panic. This horrific scene could make people with trypophobia faint. Qi Tong slapped the screaming women to quiet them down. "What a noise!"
"Huhu...this kind of bug...I wonder if it's...huhu...contagious!"
The Mediterranean old king was panting at this time. At his age, he really couldn't run anymore, but if he didn't run, he would die. The yard was completely covered with black bugs!
The black bugs on the ground kept raising their heads, trying to attack everyone, but were trampled to pieces by Shen Jin and his team. "No, we can't get into the villa. I'll make a way underground, and Yang Ao will pick up all the bugs!"
Shen Jin put Li Moxiao down, took out a shovel and started digging the soil on the spot. He wanted to use his cube-forming ability to open up a safe passage to the underground.
This place is very close to the underground passage of the villa. As long as we hurry up, we can connect in and then block the back road, and everyone will be safe.
When others saw that Shen Jin had another idea, they were overjoyed, and Shen Jin just started digging on the spot!
“Swish, swish, swish~!”
After a few shovels, a prompt sounded from the system:
[Ding! There are living things on the ground, so I can’t use my cube-forming ability.]
Shen Jin had not panicked at all, but when he heard the system's prompt, he was stunned for a moment...
This was not the first time he had heard this kind of reminder. When there were living things in the soil, such as hibernating squirrels, snakes, mantis shrimps, etc., it was impossible to directly dig up the entire piece of soil. Only after these creatures were taken out could they be excavated. However, some tiny creatures, such as bacteria, microorganisms , snails, etc., would not be affected.
Looking at the dark liquid on the ground, Shen Jin's scalp tingled, "These...are all considered living beings???"
"What living thing?" Yang Ao looked at Shen Jin who was unable to use earth-related abilities, and had a bad feeling.
Shen Jin did not answer, and dug in a few more places, but all of them showed that he could not use the cube-forming ability, and the whole yard was full of black bugs!!!
Shen Jin can’t dig the hole!
"No, my ability is temporarily ineffective. I can only go underground from inside the villa!"
"Then we need to speed up, the insects around us are getting bigger!" Fu Wei was standing behind Yang Ao, holding a glass bottle in his hand, observing this life form that he had never seen before.
This kind of life form is as unscientific as a zombie, as if it was born to destroy everything, and its growth and development speed is too terrifying. According to biological theory, individuals with this kind of life characteristics have extremely fast cell division speed, and their life span will not be too long. As long as they don’t have food for a while, they will die of hunger! Or when the number of cell divisions reaches the peak, they will die naturally.
Li Moxiao was standing on the ground at this time, nodding frantically, "Yes, I feel that the appetite of the creatures around me is getting bigger and bigger. They want to eat us all! It's terrible!"
After saying that, she wanted to get into Shen Jin's arms again. Shen Jin was speechless. The 16-year-old Li Moxiao was relatively light overall except for her long legs that were a hindrance. As a pseudo-superhuman, it was no pressure at all to hold her in his arms.
But it affected his ability to draw his sword...shovel, pickaxe, axe and other tools.
"But how can we get through with so many bugs?"
"Charge! Brother Jin, I'll lead the way, you provide remote support." Yang Ao raised his energy iron sword and led the charge. He knew that this was not the time to hesitate. He and Shen Jin were the only extraordinary people present, so he had to lead the charge. Moreover, he believed that Shen Jin would be able to use his supernatural powers to help him avoid danger. Shen Jin shouted, "Okay! Let's fight our way out . They're just a bunch of broken bugs..."
"boom!"
Before the two of them could rush forward, the villa collapsed...
This group of black bugs actually ate away an entire villa and collapsed it in just a few minutes.
The bricks, glass and floor of the villa were all broken into pieces, and there were a lot of signs of gnawing in every corner.
"This zombie bastard is so fucking cruel!" Shen Jin cursed. Now he could not enter the villa. The entire tunnel was buried inside, and it was covered with black bugs. Moreover, the black bugs on the villa developed faster than those on the open space. They replenished more energy and evolved to be bigger. They could bite people's trouser legs when they raised their heads!
"It's bad, it's bad, we're done! It's all your fault for not leaving a backup channel!" An employee of Wanyu Group collapsed and shouted.
Shen Jin frowned, thinking that it was time to use his trump card...
Yang Ao stamped his feet to crush the black bugs under his feet and slapped the man in the face, "Shut up!"
Everyone was stepping on the black bugs under their feet to prevent them from crawling into their trouser legs. Ma Sanxiong felt a little itchy on his back, so he scratched it and a black bug with evolved teeth appeared. It looked hideous and terrifying, and it moved left and right between his fingers, its teeth opening and closing wildly, with a trace of blood at the corner of its mouth.
He then felt some pain on his back, probably because of the bug that had fallen in and had been sucking his blood, he threw the bug to the ground in disgust and stepped on it, "Puff!"
The brown liquid inside splashed out and got on Su Lele's trouser leg. "Ah! What the hell is that? It got on me!"
"So much nonsense!" Ma Sanxiong yelled and quickly ran to the middle of the team. He didn't want to be bitten by insects again. It was so uncomfortable...
“Boom! Rumble!”
The noise outside the wall became louder. At this time, Shen Jin and Yang Ao could clearly hear the footsteps of a large number of zombies outside. It was the sound of thousands of troops charging.
Yang Ao, Shang Qian, Li Moxiao, Fu Wei, Su Lele and everyone else stared at Shen Jin, hoping that he could come up with a way to help everyone escape the crisis.
"Hey... We can't stay here any longer, everyone follow me!"
Shen Jin headed straight for the south wall, where he had a backup plan...
