Chapter 59 Chaos
In fact, Feng Wansha could guess it.
Just like don't put all your eggs in one basket.
Insects have eyes. If you use this thing on the outside of a complete building and wrap the building, they will definitely try their best to find ways to get in.
The protector couldn't hold out for long.
Its greater function is to isolate the breath of life.
But if the protective device is so small that one can see clearly inside at a glance, the insect man would at most treat it as a toy and just poke at it a few times.
Feng Wansha didn't have time to explain this. "Leave it to us. We will assemble it as soon as possible."
She pulled Li Leilei and turned around and said, "Let's go to maintenance room No. 3. Meet us there in an hour."
Ji Heng nodded, "Okay, let's all be careful."
The communications within the building are being repaired. Since we cannot contact space, we also need to be able to maintain close communication inside the building.
The communication system was restored when Ji Heng ran to find Instructor Fan.
Ji Heng immediately contacted Fan Li: "Instructor, where are you?"
"What's going on at the gate?"
"Something happened." Ji Heng wanted to ask Fan Li to move aside to talk, but it was very noisy over there, with crying and screaming mixed together.
"I'm coming to you now."
Fan Li: "Don't come over..." I don't know what's wrong with Ji Heng. He can no longer care about the students. The gate is full of survivors who are crowding in.
When there were no insect-men, they dared not step in. When the insect-men attacked, they would break their heads to cut in line.
The scene was chaotic.
When Ji Heng found Instructor Fan, he tried his best to calm everyone down and arranged for them to take refuge in the military and political building.
The people all looked like frightened birds.
Some people ran so fast that they even lost their shoes.
Dozens of mecha warriors took turns killing the insect people attracted by the life forms. Every shot was accurate and every sword was deadly, but they could not protect everyone.
There are too many insects, and they can’t be killed at all.
The big-eyed insect-men mixed in with ordinary insect-men were very conspicuous. As soon as they appeared, they almost caught the attention of all the soldiers.
The rubber-like tentacles squirmed quickly and landed lightly at the end of the crowd. One of them wrapped around a person and brought him to its mouth.
Another targeted a pregnant woman.
The strange big eyes stared intently.
The pregnant woman was trembling with fear, and a strong smell of urine came from under her pants.
The mecha master quickly rushed over to intercept, swinging his magnetic blade sword and cutting off the tentacle.
Smoke was sizzling from the broken tentacle, but the big-eyed worm didn't care. The wound healed quickly and granulation tissue appeared.
It slowly extended another tentacle, revealing a silver hook at the tip.
The pregnant woman was also a ruthless person. Seeing that she was about to be swept away, she grabbed the man next to her and asked him to stand in front of her.
In an instant, the man's chest was pierced. He turned his head in disbelief, took a deep breath, and shouted in vain: "It hurts, help me."
Blood flowed down the hook, and the fishy smell made the surrounding insect people restless.
But the insect people are very strict, and they can't start eating until the leader says to.
The helpless tentacles were scraping the ground, staring at the blood on the ground, wanting to get a piece of it.
The big-eyed bug-man pulled the man in front of him and started sucking the liquid in big gulps. The screams of pain lasted for several seconds, making the man feel suffocated.
After sucking out all the meat inside, the big-eyed insect man threw the remaining skin and bones to the ordinary insect men.
The tentacle that had just been cut off squirmed on the ground for a while before being dragged away and eaten by an ordinary insect man.
Although this kind of scene was not the first time that the soldiers had seen it, it was hard not to suffer psychological trauma when watching a living person being devoured until nothing was left at all up close.
While the man was being eaten, the pregnant woman stared at her hands in a daze. Her husband was just pushed out by her.
"Ah..." The people in line screamed, pushing the people in front of them to hurry up, "I want to go in, I want to go in, hurry up."
The mecha master angrily shouted, "Damn bugs." Energy bullets were fired continuously from the muzzle, with crazy output.
The scolded insect man was not afraid of gunfire at all. His elastic tentacles spread out to form a shield, blocking all attacks.
The annoying fly waved its soft tentacles, carrying a strong airflow, and hit the shooting gun.
The weapon snapped.
Without long-range weapons, the mecha master immediately gave up the attack and protected the people who were still rushing forward.
The big-eyed worm has a very simple mind, and anything that prevents it from eating will die.
They pounced on the mecha masters present, and ordinary insect people also rushed up.
The crowd was dispersed at once, and there was chaos outside the military and political building.
The pregnant woman, without support, stumbled and fell to the ground when someone bumped into her shoulder.
"My belly." The pregnant woman protected her belly and raised her hands helplessly for help.
The insect people kept pouring in, and half of the hundreds of people queuing to enter disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"We can't stop them anymore, let's close the door." The lieutenant colonel stationed in the city decided the fate of the humans outside with just one sentence.
"Don't close the door." Many people rushed into the closing door, and those who couldn't squeeze in were still pushing, "Don't push, don't push, you will die like this."
The door closed tightly.
Those who couldn't squeeze in knelt on the ground and cried loudly, while others prostrated themselves on the ground, praying for the gods' protection and a peaceful and healthy afterlife.
No matter what form of call for help, it was too late.
The insect people swarmed forward and devoured all living things in the blink of an eye.
It's like hell on earth.
The protective shield was opened and the military and political building was closed, so people inside could not get out and people outside could not get in.
It's not the worst.
The function of the protective shield was originally to resist weapon energy.
The effect of defending against insect men is very general, and it won’t take long for the insect men to break through this layer of defense.
The number of insect people continued to increase, and they surrounded us in an endless stream, becoming more and more numerous and densely packed.
Fan Li stood on the wall of the military and political building, sweating profusely.
Ji Heng, who was running too fast, slowed down his pace. He did not see the scene before the door closed, but was frozen by the scene in front of him.
"It's fatal, it's fatal, it's fatal." Wu Feiyang was also present. He held his head and had the same mood as Ji Heng.
There are so many of these monsters, too many to describe.
In Huangyang City, apart from the military and political buildings, are there any living people?
There are insect people not only on the ground, but also in the sky.
The air was filled with tension and fear.
Ji Heng's feet were shaking.
What he was facing at this moment was no longer the insect people, but death.
One student squatted down and said in despair: "What's the point of winning the game? Why am I so unlucky? I don't want to come here at all. I don't want to be a soldier."
Negative emotions are contagious. When one person collapses, others also begin to collapse.
Wu Feiyang hit the student on the head with a heavy slap and scolded him, "You should have known that your life was in danger before you came here. What's the point of feeling sorry for yourself here?"
"You're still talking about me. Aren't you also talking about life and death? You're not any better than me."
"I'm excited. Before I die, I will definitely take a few insect lives with me to bury myself, so that my death will not be meaningless." Wu Feiyang smiled freely, and his smile was uglier than crying.
"To die on the battlefield is a man's romance. Don't be discouraged. Perhaps reinforcements will arrive the next moment."
The crying student wiped away tears and said, "I want to say goodbye to my family."
"Who wouldn't want to?" Wu Feiyang touched the communicator and called Wu Qingqing first, but no one answered. He called several times in a row, but still couldn't get through.
His palms felt cold. No, no, my cousin is an indestructible cockroach. Nothing can happen to her.
……
Ji Heng tried hard to suppress his palpitations.
He believed in Su Xiaocai and believed that she must have a backup plan. Once she killed the mother body, that would be their victory.
Stride towards the door.
At this time, Fan Li woodenly helped up the people who had fallen and asked them to go inside to the building prepared to accommodate the survivors.
"Coach Fan, I have something to report to you about Su Xiaocai."
Fan Li immediately understood and ordered the soldiers who were responsible for resettling the people to do a good job of guiding them. He and Ji Heng went to a remote corner to talk.
Ji Heng told Fan Li about the things that Su Xiaocai left behind, and how she had explored deep into the pit to look for the mother body.
"She's trying to give us the best chance of survival. We have to hold on."
Fan Li's eyes suddenly turned red. He had wanted to complain countless times before that Su Xiaocai had taken away his position as an instructor. But now that something had really happened, Su Xiaocai, who resolutely took the responsibility, was more worthy of the position of instructor than anyone else.
Having been in the army for so long, he has experienced many wars, big and small.
The generals in the battle were all very powerful and worthy of respect.
Su Xiaocai is the most low-key and fearless leader he has ever seen.
He kept it in mind and paid tribute to Su Xiaocai.
"I'll take care of the rest." Fan Li asked Ji Heng, "Aren't you going into the shelter? I heard that you are the heir of your family. What if..."
"Nothing will happen. I will fight to the last moment." Ji Heng said firmly, "If there are many soldiers and mecha divisions guarding here, I can choose not to fight."
The implication is that there is none here.
Not every soldier stationed there is a mecha master, some are only responsible for maintaining security in the city.
The only ones who can fight against the insect people are a few hundred people and a dozen police officers from the law enforcement department.
No matter what, they have to hold on until Su Xiaocai kills the mother, then their persistence will be meaningful.
"Let's keep the fact that Su Xiaocai is going to attack the Matrix a secret for now. There are channels for transmitting information among the Zerg people." If the news is passed back to the Matrix and the warriors, some Zerg people will definitely be drawn out to provide protection.
They must defend with all their might, which is also a means of attracting the attention of the insect people.
Buy time for Su Xiaocai.
The insect man pressed forward step by step, and the big-eyed insect man climbed onto the protective shield and attacked continuously.
The attack of the ordinary insect men coordinated with the big-eye insect men piled up like waves at the military and political building.
The mecha pilots all sat on their "battle companions" and held their weapons tightly.
The instructors didn't have time to lead the students in battle, so Ji Heng volunteered.
The other students also believed him. Although Junhui and Junya were a little dissatisfied, they could not fight and find fault in times of crisis.
If there are any changes in orders, the instructor will notify Ji Heng immediately.
No student escaped, they were all top students in the school and had no reason to shrink back.
There was no need to fight against the insects for the time being, so Wu Feiyang quickly asked Ji Heng: "Why are you the only one left in your team? Where is Wu Qingqing? Where is my little wife? Where did they go?"
Wu Feiyang also discovered that Hu Ping and others were not there either.
If these people are not here, why is Ji Heng still here?
Su Xiaocai's actions needed to be kept secret, so Ji Heng only said, "They have other tasks, so don't ask about their whereabouts."
Wu Feiyang heard the hidden meaning, but he didn't believe it. Su Xiaocai was not a soldier, so how could he entrust her with any secret mission?
Wu Feiyang is good at mathematics.
Each team is responsible for two areas. The west side is under the charge of Fan Li and others, and Su Xiaocai must be there as well.
"They fell in, right?" Wu Feiyang sent a private message to Ji Heng.
Ji Heng was silent. Wu Feiyang's eyes were bloodshot. She wanted to question Ji Heng, why didn't he save them and why it wasn't him who fell.
In the end, his reason prevailed.
He stammered, "Why are you so calm? I really want to kill all these disgusting things now."
Ji Heng: "I said, they have a secret mission. I believe they are still alive and they will come back."
Wu Feiyang could not accept such an explanation, "If you don't come back, I will go find them."
Ji Heng looked up at the cracks on the protective shield. Only forty minutes had passed.
"You can't go. They are still alive. Even if you don't believe Wu Qingqing, you should believe Su Xiaocai." He threw a weapon to Wu Feiyang, and the long knife was stuck in the ground. "Xiaocai gave it to you, use it well."
There is no time to grieve.
Wu Feiyang picked up the weapon and knew it was no simple matter as soon as he used it. The long sword emitted an invisible edge, and the cracks in the ground it made were wider than the original blade.
Looking closer, he saw a silver substance flowing inside. Wu Feiyang waved it twice, and he seemed to hear the bloodthirsty metal roaring.
……
Six more logistics assistants came into maintenance room No. 3. They helped assemble the triangular protector and speeded up the assembly.
The lieutenant colonel in the city looked at the successfully assembled protective device and asked, "Can this thing really block the insect people's detection?"
"Su Xiaocai doesn't lie. If she says she can do it, then she can definitely do it. You must do as she says." The machine Feng Wansha used to tighten the screws was almost producing sparks.
Fan Li: "We have to try our best. There is nothing we can do, right?"
"Then how can we ensure that the people inside will not panic and move?" said the lieutenant colonel stationed in the city.
Li Leilei looked at him like he was mentally retarded. "There should be a lot of space miner uniforms here. Just put them on and knock them out. We can also squeeze a few more people in."
The lieutenant colonel stationed in the city took a deep breath and said, "Don't use drugs casually. Some people are allergic to them."
"Then let's wait to die together." Li Leilei toughened up, her hands never stopped, and she quickly left an afterimage, not wanting to talk to the soldier who was hesitating and unable to make a decision.
Logistics is focused on doing things.
The lieutenant colonel stationed in the city could not interrupt any further, "Warrant Officer Fan, where is the student Su you mentioned now? How did she predict this accident?"
Fan Li didn't tell him that Su Xiaocai went to kill the mother body, "Are you doubting her?"
"It's a bit of a coincidence." The lieutenant colonel stationed in the city didn't think that a student had the ability to calculate Huang Yangxing's current situation.
Fan Li: "She fell into the collapsed area and tried her best to pass the message back to buy us some time."
The lieutenant colonel had nothing to say. He was wrong. It was already that time. If Su Xiaocai had really predicted that the insect people would attack, he would not have come to Huangyang Star in the first place.
Now that everyone is trapped in a corner and is about to fight to the death, there is no time to engage in conspiracies and intrigues.
Fan Li was secretly glad that he did not tell the truth. This lieutenant colonel had been in Huangyang City for too long and had learned the ambiguity of a politician and acted in a slow manner, without the courage of a soldier.
No wonder I haven’t been promoted.
"If the lieutenant colonel can't make a decision, just say it was me who made it. I am willing to take all the responsibility."
The lieutenant colonel stationed in the city said: "Well, fine, I'll leave this to you. If you make a contribution, all the credit will be yours. Try to keep people alive."
Since he was destined to die, he didn't dare to deal with such troubles anymore. He could just leave it to Fan Li. He wanted to go out and command the last battlefield of his life.
Forty minutes later, the assembly was halfway done, and with half left, Fan Li ran to get the clerks and police officers who were hiding to do the work.
The drug can only be administered once, without any mistakes.
During this period, Fan Li went to a shelter.
There were several thousand people in the shelter, and there were no military or police on site to maintain order, but it was extremely quiet.
Everyone lowered their heads. The few children, who were rare in Huangyang City, were very well-behaved and curled up in the arms of their families.
Fan Li felt a lump in his throat. He had to pick out the people he wanted to save from these people.
Don't be soft-hearted.
Seeing the soldiers coming in, several refugees stood up, anxiously wanting to know the situation outside, "Officer, what's going on outside?"
Fan Li said: "I don't want to lie to you, I'm not optimistic. We are ready to fight to the death."
"Don't you have an emergency escape plan? For example, planetary teleportation, rescue."
"Yes, we can pay. Any amount is fine. Please arrange for us to leave first."
"We have to leave too. You are the people's army. You can't just care about the rich."
Many people were anxious, fearing that the military would abandon them, and joined the debate, as if they could earn the right to survive by arguing a few words.
Everyone only thinks about themselves, and the selfishness and ugliness of human nature are fully exposed.
It is understandable that people are selfish when it comes to survival.
Fan Li said cautiously: "There is more than one shelter. We need to relocate some people. If the insect people come in, let's save as many as possible."
"They will be moved deeper, with children given priority. For the rest, you can draw lots, or choose yourselves to go to the next shelter. The limit is 400 people."
"If we can't hold on, you will be the last barrier for the children."
Fan Li's words were like a bomb dropping on them.
"You only have ten minutes to consider. You must move before the shield breaks. We have no other way to escape. We can only delay time and wait for reinforcements." Fan Li took off his hat, bowed, and apologized sincerely, "I'm sorry, our strength is limited and we can't make any promises. We can only choose to keep the fire."
Everyone turned to look at the children huddled together in the crowd.
Some objections were raised.
"Why? They are not our children."
"You can't take anyone away if we don't want to. It's ridiculous to ask me to be a human shield for them."
"There won't be any big shots hiding underground, so I guess they chose these few people."
Fan Li stood up and said, "All the staff here have gone to fend off the insects. They are all ready to sacrifice themselves, so I hope you will stop making assumptions and slandering the heroes who are fighting."
A man with a ferocious face stood up. He was the leader of the miners in the nearby area. He was very fierce and selfish, and often deducted workers' wages.
Just when everyone thought he was going to support those who spoke out against it.
But he punched the man and knocked him unconscious.
There is never a shortage of heroes in the face of crisis. He doesn't think he is a good person, but if anyone can survive, he hopes it is the child.
