Chapter 76 Night Attack
Du Jiujiu had been immersed in thinking about the current situation. She didn't realize that the bonfire was about to burn out again and the light in the room became much dimmer.
At this time, a rustling sound suddenly reached Du Jiujiu's ears, interrupting her thoughts.
Du Jiujiu touched the long knife at her hand, raised her ears and listened carefully for a moment. The sound came from the kitchen in the house.
Before she got up to inspect, she saw many dark brown bugs, no more than a finger long, crawling out from the crack in the kitchen door. The number was so large that Du Jiujiu couldn't even count them at the moment.
"Get up! There's a situation!!" Seeing those insects crawling towards them regardless, Du Jiujiu shouted quickly, swung his long knife and swept away towards the ground.
Du Jiujiu is probably the worst at dealing with these large numbers of small bugs. Although a single blow slightly hindered their progress, the dozens of bugs killed did not pose any threat to their group.
.
The series of events tonight made Hu Xiaoyun's nerves very sensitive. After hearing Du Jiujiu's shout, he instantly sat up from his chair and looked around.
"What is this!?" When he saw these densely packed disgusting-looking insects crawling toward him, Hu Xiaoyun's face immediately showed a look of horror, and he subconsciously took two steps back.
"This bug... looks like a cockroach." Luo Yucheng also opened his eyes and struggled to stand up from the chair.
It seemed that he had accidentally exerted too much force, and blood oozed out from his wound again. Luo Yucheng frowned in pain, but did not make a sound.
Sure enough, when they crawled closer to the already dimmed fire, Du Jiujiu could clearly see that the appearance of these bugs was exactly the same as the cockroaches he had seen before the end of the world.
After zooming in on the flat body and two long antennae, the bristles on their legs became clearly visible, which made Du Jiujiu feel a chill in her heart.
This Malatang shop must have been very hygienic before the apocalypse, but luckily I haven’t patronized it often!
After mutating, these cockroaches became more agile in their crawling speed, but in just a moment they were approaching the three of them like a tide.
Du Jiujiu hurriedly swung the knife again, but those cockroaches seemed to have wisdom. After seeing the power of the knife, as long as they saw Du Jiujiu swinging the knife, they would dodge in all directions. Their movements were very flexible, which made Du Jiujiu's efficiency
Not even as good as before.
Weapons like a long knife are really not suitable for attacking dense insects, but her fists are more suitable in comparison.
But these cockroaches looked so disgusting that Du Jiujiu would never want to touch them unless absolutely necessary.
Looking at the approaching insects, Luo Yucheng quickly put his hand into his trouser pocket and took out a dark pistol.
"It's indeed a gun." Du Jiujiu said to himself as he waved the long knife and glanced at the pistol in his hand with his peripheral vision.
But then her expression tightened, and she used a pistol to deal with these thousands of bugs. Is this person crazy?!
"Get back! Your gun can't deal with bugs!"
Before Du Jiujiu could finish his words, a bullet had already been shot out of the gun barrel at high speed and towards the swarm of insects.
The next moment, a violent roar came from the swarm of insects. Du Jiujiu looked closely and saw that the previous bullet exploded.
The shock wave of the explosion splashed everywhere with exploding metal fragments. In just one blow, hundreds of mutant cockroaches were killed.
"This is my superpower. Be careful, they are coming again!" Looking at the shocked two people, Luo Yucheng quickly explained, then raised his arm again and pointed his gun at the growing number.
Swarm of insects.
Although Hu Xiaoyun's reaction was half a beat slower than the two of them, she was still someone who had experienced life and death. When she recovered from her panic, she immediately began to mobilize her energy and gather flames.
Her flame is the natural nemesis of these poisonous insects and ant beasts. Even the fireball condensed in a hurry caused huge damage to them when it fell into the insect swarm, causing the dense insect swarm to appear for a moment.
A small piece of open space.
When Luo Yucheng saw that the flames released by Hu Xiaoyun were so powerful, a trace of surprise flashed across his face. However, he immediately regained his composure and concentrated on using his special powers to continue attacking the cockroaches that were coming one after another.
Before the end of the world, if you ask who is the overlord of the earth, then human beings definitely deserve it.
But to say who is the most difficult species to be exterminated, it is the cockroach. With its reproductive ability and super survival ability, the cockroach has been living an extremely nourishing life in its own way on this earth where natural enemies are rampant.
With the advent of the end, evolution has significantly enhanced these characteristics, which is undoubtedly the icing on the cake for them.
These cockroaches are superior to those before the doomsday in terms of speed and agility. As for the attack power, although they are not large in size, I believe that no one present is willing to be bitten by it.
Quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes. With such a huge number, if someone is unfortunate enough to fall into them, they will surely turn into a pile of bones in a matter of seconds.
Among the cockroaches, there were even some variants with thin wings on their backs. They could glide at low altitude like cockroaches in the south, bypassing Du Jiujiu's long knife and pounce on their heads and faces.
Hu Xiaoyun was so frightened by this scene that his face turned pale, and he even released his powers a few minutes faster than before.
Du Jiujiu saw that the two of them were obviously clearing away the cockroaches much faster than him, so he began to focus on defense and cut the cockroaches that pounced on them into two pieces one by one.
The rain was still falling outside the door, but it was no longer as fierce as before, and the raging wind gradually subsided.
Du Jiujiu glanced at the still dark night outside the window, and then at the endless mutant cockroaches. She gritted her teeth, picked up her backpack, and shouted loudly: "We won't fight them forever! Let's leave quickly.
here!"
Hu Xiaoyun had long wanted to leave. When he heard Du Jiujiu's words, he immediately put on his backpack and retreated while releasing fireballs.
"Luo Yucheng, please leave quickly, I'll break up the rear!" Seeing that Luo Yucheng was still standing there with no intention of retreating, Du Jiujiu shouted again.
"Let's go, I... I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on much longer." Luo Yucheng's voice revealed weakness that could not be concealed. After firing another bullet into the insect swarm, he turned his head to look at Du Jiujiu and smiled bitterly.
.
Luo Yucheng's face was bloodless at this time, and fine sweat soaked all over his forehead, which looked sparkling under the firelight.
However, what is more eye-catching is the dazzling bright red on his chest.
The already hideous wound burst open again under his constant attacks, and blood had stained his clothes. With every small movement, blood would seep out again.
Seeing this situation, Du Jiujiu immediately understood why he didn't plan to leave with them. With his physical condition, running violently would probably kill him.
"If you want to leave, hurry up... My energy is almost exhausted." Luo Yucheng saw that Du Jiujiu hadn't left yet, and his tone became a little more anxious.
All his powers had been exhausted in the previous battle. Although he had recovered a little energy during the rest, it was undoubtedly a drop in the bucket in front of these huge numbers of mutated cockroaches, and he could not sustain it for long at all.
