Chapter 188: Anthill Base Crisis
Flying up and down again and again, until the caterpillar turned into an unformed powder and flew with the wind The jelly group quieted down, here, Guo Yili was already stunned, maybe it was very cruel for the caterpillar to be called, but in Guo Yili's opinion, this picture is like a group of small jelly playing ball, one hitting the other catching the ball and then crashing away, this picture is extremely joyful, she finally understands what Si Zhao means by being interesting.
It's really fun, but it's based on the cruelty of the end times.
Guo Yili looked at Si Zhao, she didn't believe that Si Zhao brought her here to watch a cruel and funny game.
Si Zhao is naturally not a character who takes cruelty for fun, the whirlwind in his hand danced, and the jelly closest to them was grabbed by an invisible hand and sent directly to Guo Yili's eyes.
The pot-sized jelly has a pair of small, barely visible eyes, and a mouth that is quite large, and nothing else, no hands, no feet, no body, this little thing seems to have only one head.
Captured, the light blue jelly shrunk into a ball of fright, it wanted to explode, but the binding power from the wind ability on its body made it unable to move, this little thing is not of high level, and the threat level of a single thing is not as good as that of a mouse.
Sizzle~~~
There was a faint sound of electric shock, but unfortunately Si Zhao was already able to create a vacuum for a short time after reaching the third order, and the electric shock sent by the small thing disappeared as soon as it left the body, and after a few times, the little thing withered, and it seemed that the electricity it stored was also limited.
"Si Zhao, why did you bring me here?" Guo Yili was very curious, it was the first time she had seen this jelly-like mutant creature.
A faint smile appeared on Si Zhao's face. He reached out and wrapped his arms around Guo Yili's waist and put his chin on her neck: "Li'er, I want to open a grocery store, right next to your weapons store." ”
"Open a store?" Guo Yili looked at Si Zhao suspiciously, and her confused little appearance made Si Zhao can't help but peck at her slightly open red lips.
"Hate it, hurry up." Guo Yili is gone, this guy is obviously stuck in oil.
Si Zhao chuckled and finally said what he thought.
Jelly's real name is thunderbug, which is a mutation of a bug that is named after its ability to cast thunder and lightning. This little beast is not very capable individually. But if there are groups of people, even Si Zhao will not dare to provoke easily.
After the end of the world, civilization was lost, and the use of mutated creatures blossomed everywhere, and someone invented a lighting device that uses thunderbugs to generate electricity, which is very lazy. Too lazy to be willing to act as your electricity if you give it a comfortable enough environment. It's just that. It's just a little more difficult to capture.
Si Zhao saw the difficulty of this little guy's capture, his ability was just right to restrain these little things, and it would be good if he caught it to open a store and sell business. Maybe Guo Yili's weapon shop must be doing well, but Si Zhao is a man, and he needs to have a career that can make money to support his family.
He thought about this matter for a long time, and didn't tell Guo Yili until he was really sure, Guo Yili already understood what he meant after listening to Si Zhao's story, and the whole person was close to Si Zhao's arms, she understood Si Zhao's heart, and Guo Yili was also full of expectations for this upcoming grocery store.
That's right!
"Si Zhao, did you buy the shop next to my weapons shop?"
When Guo Yili renovated the store in the first two days, he found that the shop next to his store had also changed hands, unlike the dilapidated weapon store that Guo Yili bought this weapon store, the one next to it was a daily necessities store, and the business was booming, and it didn't look like it was going to go bankrupt, why did it suddenly change people?
At that time, Guo Yili was still wondering for a while, but now it seems that the problem is around him, and Si Zhao doesn't know how to use to take down the store that has a good business.
Si Zhao generously admitted that in order to get closer to Guo Yili, he spent three times as much as Guo Yili bought the weapon shop.
It's worth it though.
Knowing Si Zhao's plan, Guo Yili also became excited, she bought a lot of glass boxes from the ability store, these boxes are used to hold these thunder insects, thunder insects like glass, they like it very much, as long as they lie on the glass, they are not even afraid of the approach of humans, use their ability Si Zhao to catch a lot of thunder insects, Guo Yili helped to install them, looking at these small things lying lazily in the glass box, Guo Yili was beaming: "Big boss Si Zhao, am I working for you?" ”
"Yes, Boss Li'er, I'm also your employee."
"It's easy to say, I won't give you a salary increase, haha."
――――――――――――――――――-
Ten days later, when Hao Li returned to the anthill base again, Si Zhao and Guo Yili's small shop had already made a name for itself, and it seemed that Si Zhao's grocery store business was better than Guo Yili's weapon store business.
There's no way, who let Guo Yili's weapon store have one ability weapon in half a month, and there are naturally fewer people who usually come to buy goods, and thunder insects are in short supply, and in the last days, especially in underground spaces like the anthill base, those glowing plants alone can't guarantee people's thirst for light sources.
"Ilri." Approaching the store, Hao Li greeted Guo Yili who was leaning on a chair and teasing cute chickens, Guo Yili looked up and saw Hao Li standing up in surprise: "Hao Li, you're back!" ”
"Hmm." Hao Li smiled brightly: "Did Yi Li miss me?" ”
"Of course I think so, it's only been ten days before you come back, it's too hard to go back and forth." Guo Yili was very happy to meet Hao Li, they were friends, although it was very sweet to be here with Si Zhao, it was also boring to have no friends.
Guo Yili's words deepened the smile on Hao Li's face, but as he looked Guo Yili up and down, Hao Li's smile remained the same, but there was a little more cold light in his eyes, Guo Yili and Si Zhao had officially become husband and wife, and in terms of temperament, Guo Yili had more charm of a young woman in addition to being a girl.
Hao Li didn't show any abnormality, he approached Guo Yili with a smile: "It's not hard, Baihu has something for me to bring to you." ”
"What did the white tiger say? He didn't blame me. ”
Guo Yili was really worried, she said that she would leave when she left, she was too selfish for Baihu.
Hao Li smiled and rubbed Guo Yili's head: "No, the white tiger said to let you pay attention to safety outside, he will definitely not lose a spar for you." And ......"
Hao Li's voice paused, and Guo Yili's heart instinctively tightened: "What? ”
"Yili, Uncle Guo went and committed suicide, I went to confirm that it was suicide."
Hao Li's voice was low, hearing the news Guo Yili was silent, for Guo Hanbai's father, Guo Yili hated, pity, and cold-hearted, and now heard that he died. Guo Yili's heart throbbed. Anyway, he is his father, he gave her a beautiful and warm childhood, and after a long silence, Guo Yili raised his head and looked at Hao Li.
"Hao Li. I... Why did Father kill himself? ”
Guo Yili's eyes were cold. Hao Li saw Guo Yili like this for the first time. Thinking of the skinny old man with a remorseful face, Hao Li sighed softly.
"Uncle knew that Guo Xiaobao was not his bloodline at all, and he left a suicide note saying that he was sorry for you and asked you not to hate him."
"Huh."
Guo Yili can only hehe at this time. The father wanted his son for the rest of his life, but in the end it was just a lie, her heart hurt, and at the same time, she hated the woman who deceived their family.
"Hao Li, can you do me a favor?"
Guo Yili's tone was low, and the bitter hatred revealed made Hao Li's eyes flash, such Guo Yili was very dark, but he really liked it.
"You say." Hao Li forcibly suppressed the urge to take Guo Yili in his arms and kiss wildly, and spoke calmly.
Guo Yili didn't notice Hao Li's abnormality, she raised her head and looked directly at Hao Li, and said one word: "Help me kill Qian Meimei." ”
Guo Yili's tone was gloomy when he said this, but Hao Li was smiling, and he nodded gently: "Okay." ”
"Say what?"
Si Zhao came in from the outside, he was not in the store before, when he approached Guo Yili, he naturally leaned himself into Si Zhao's arms, buried his face deeply in Si Zhao's arms, and soon, Si Zhao felt a cool feeling in his chest and abdomen, and Guo Yili cried.
Hugging Guo Yili, Si Zhao patted her on the back lovingly, his movements were gentle, but his eyes looked at Hao Li like a knife, Hao Li looked at him without showing weakness, and for this man who got Guo Yili one step ahead of him, Hao Li took a lot of effort to hide the killing intent in his heart.
Si Zhao's eyes flashed, and then he saw Hao Li smile slightly: "Congratulations, you tied the knot." ”
"Thank you."
Si Zhao's attitude did not ease in the slightest, when Guo Yili vented out and wiped away her tears, she came out of Si Zhao's arms embarrassedly, looked at Hao Li, who was smiling gently, she bit her lip in embarrassment: "Hao Li, stay here for a few days and then leave." ”
"Okay."
Even if Guo Yili didn't say it, Hao Li didn't plan to leave early.
Hao Li stayed, talking and laughing with Guo Yili every day, and went to catch thunder worms with her and Si Zhao, with the two of them accompanying Guo Yili to gradually recover from the shadow of Guo Hanbai's death, although sometimes it is inevitable that there will be heartache, but the life is generally not bad, until an alarm sounded through the anthill base, and mutant creatures attacked the base.
The anthill base is located underground, which can be said to be the safest place, but there is never a really safe place in the last days, and there is a strong thirst for killing humans and mutant creatures**.
As the alarm sounded, all the people who were in the base ran out of their homes, and the places they ran to were the major entrances and exits, and who went to which exits had been divided when they entered the base.
When Guo Yili, Si Zhao, and Hao Li arrived at the exit, there was already chaos here, at the exit, the security door had been closed, and the loud banging outside indicated that more than one mutant creature was impacting, and even the soil and rocks on the side were trembling, which showed that the other party also had mutated creatures that could enter the ground.
Guo Yili grabbed an uncle with a gloomy face beside him, this uncle is also a famous person in the base, but looking at his face, it is definitely too troublesome to trouble outside.
"Uncle Kui, what's going on outside?" Guo Yili is quite familiar with this uncle, after all, they all open stores, and they don't look up and look down every day.
Uncle Kui is about forty years old, with an angular face and dark skin, don't look at it, his temper is still good.
"It's mutant ants, this group of things has taken a fancy to the base and wants to make this place their home." Uncle Kui's voice was low, with a little bit of gnashing of teeth, which showed that he hated the group of things attacking the base outside.
Guo Yili understood the origin of the things outside, it turned out to be ants, looking at the force of the impact at the entrance of the base, this group of ants must be not small, and, ants, this is a nest of things, if the nest comes out, the base may really change owners.
Guo Yili turned his mind around, and he couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Kui." Didn't any ants come before? ”
"Nope." Uncle Kui wiped his sweat, he is an earth-based powerhouse, and he is trying to repair the soil layer near the entrance of the base that was damaged by external forces, and he was really broken by ants, so it would be really troublesome.
Finally completed a round of repairs, Guo Yili handed over a bottle of water, she didn't have an earth-based role, and she couldn't help at this time.
Uncle Kui took the water handed by Guo Yili, sat down to rest, and the repair was carried out in turns. It was only then that he had time to explain to Guo Yili the topics that he had not finished explaining.
"Guo girl. You should know the identity of our base leader. Unscrewing the cap, Uncle Kui poured hard.
Guo Yili nodded: "I know, it's Ant-Man." ”
"That's right, Ant-Man. Although our leader is not a real ant. But ants are also territorial-conscious. It was naturally the leader's credit that he had nothing to do before, but this group of ants was different, they were mutant black ants. The most aggressive and bloodthirsty mutant ant population. ”
"I see."
Guo Yili still wondered before, why didn't there be before but now, it turns out that there is also a war between ants, and these ants are robbers among ants, which is really troublesome.
Turning his head, Guo Yili looked at Si Zhao and Hao Li, both of whom stood quietly beside Guo Yili before and did not make a sound, until Guo Yili looked over, Hao Li smiled slightly: "Yili, don't worry, it's okay." ”
Guo Yili smiled sweetly at Hao Li, of course she knew that it would be fine, and she also knew it by looking at the expressions of these people at the scene, but as a member of the base, she should also do something.
As time went on, the pressure outside became stronger and stronger, and it was not a way to always repair the defenses, and soon the leader of the Ant-Man of the base appeared, he inspected every exit, and finally stayed in the one with the most pressure, which was also the entrance of the cave where Guo Yili and the three of them were.
"Chief."
The arrival of the leader of the ant-man made a group of strangers sincerely greet, although the leader is an orc, but with the passage of time, people have lost the initial discrimination and strangeness against orcs, as long as they have the ability, even if they are orcs?
This is the first time Guo Yili has seen the leader of the Ant-Man in this base, he actually can't see many traces of orcs from his appearance, except for a pair of flexibly dancing tentacles on his head, wearing a long trench coat to cover his strong and upright body, and his sword eyebrows are frowned, if you ignore the tentacles on his head, this is definitely a cool brother, although in terms of single-wheel appearance, the leader of Ant-Man can only be regarded as handsome.
Looking at the leader of the ant-man, Guo Yili's first thought was the scene of seeing Si Zhao for the first time, at that time, he still had a childish look on his face, and the expression on his face was as cold as this person, but now that Si Zhao's cold ice has melted, this person has already penetrated the cold into his bones.
"Chief, there are about three hundred black ants outside, I don't see the queen ant, it should have been separated from some nest, most of them are gathered outside this exit, and the queen ant should be hiding somewhere near here."
The person who spoke had a respectful expression, looking at the tentacles on his head that were also trembling slightly, this turned out to be an ant-man, in fact, there are still a lot of ant-man orcs in the ant-man base.
"Hmm."
The leader of Ant-Man nodded slightly, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly looked in the direction where Guo Yili was, and looked at Guo Yili who was looking at him curiously, this person looked at what he was doing, Guo Yili looked left and right, and the leader of Ant-Man was really looking at himself, uh, what does this person mean?
Before Guo Yili could make a move, Si Zhao and Hao Li had already blocked the Ant-Man Leader's sight one after the other, Hao Li's movements were a little slower, and after noticing Si Zhao's movements, he stopped his movements slightly, making Si Zhao the one who officially faced the Ant-Man Leader.
Si Zhao and the leader of the ant-man looked at each other for almost a minute, and the leader of the ant-man looked away after a flash of light in his eyes, Guo Yili was plopped by the little heart he saw, there is something wrong with this person, the black ants are still attacking outside, you don't kill the mutant creatures What are you staring at me.
Guo Yili didn't understand, but Si Zhao found a deep coldness in the eyes of the leader of the ant-man, which contained murderous intent, and I don't know if it was for Si Zhao or Guo Yili.
No matter who he was dealing with, Si Zhao would not allow anyone to threaten Guo Yili, even if the other party was the leader of the base.
The leader of the ant-man retracted his gaze, so he didn't see the exploration flickering in Hao Li's eyes, this ant-man had killing intent, but it was more of a curiosity and exploration of Guo Yili, and the killing intent became a foil for curiosity, although he didn't know the mentality of the leader of the ant-man, but it didn't prevent Hao from calculating the impact of all this.
Perhaps, it's worth taking advantage of.
Black ants are still attacking the base portal. Mutated creatures like black ants don't have much intelligence other than the queen, they only follow the queen's orders, and unless they find the queen and kill them, even if they kill all the black ants outside, the trouble is still not over.
Looking away from Guo Yili, the leader of the ant-man began to issue orders, finding the queen ant is the top priority, but these black ants must also be eliminated.
One order after another was issued, and all the people who carried out the orders had a pair of constantly shaking tentacles on their heads, and only at the same time the Orcs of Ant-Man could obey the orders of the Ant-Man leader in this way, and the other Abilities may respect the Ant-Man Orcs, but only a few of them made a great effort just now. It's more about watching the excitement. They are waiting, waiting for the task of clearing the black ants in the mission center to be released, and only those who have enough interests to see the excitement can really contribute to this cleanup.
The hearts of the people in the last days are so realistic, and there are so many bases in the last days. There are few people who are really willing to sacrifice their lives for this base. Unless there are enough entanglements of interests. The task reward is still good, Guo Yili also went to receive it, this is all for nothing. Anyway, they all want to help kill the black ants, and the benefits given by the leader of this ant-man should not be in vain, who made him look at himself with such strange eyes.
After receiving the task, Guo Yili and Si Zhao and Hao Li returned to the exit with the task army, this place has been opened, with the attack of the supernatural, the black ants can not enter, they can only throw a corpse at the door, it is estimated that there are too many dead black ants, there is an invisible and silent energy coming, the black ants began to change their strategies, they no longer attack hard, but cocked their abdomen, a look at the posture of the black ants, the strangers are inexplicable, but the ant orcs are shocked.
"Get out of the way!"
Someone shouted, but it was too late.
The hissing sound seemed to be something spinning, but the thing that was sprayed over the head and face refreshed people's senses about the liquid, a power ability was the first to be sprayed by the liquid because it was too close to the hole, and the translucent liquid only stained his upper body because of the angle, and a terrifying scream came from this power ability, only to see him covering his face and instantly fell to the ground and rolled, and the screams were chilling to hear, and it didn't take long for the screams to disappear, replaced by a small hiss, and then look at the past, The power powerhouse had melted the upper half of its body, leaving only its lower body, which had not yet completely lost its vitality, squirting and shaking.
Not only this power powerhouse, but no less than a dozen people were sprayed with transparent liquid, and all the places they were sprayed were melting, even if the clothes and weapons on their bodies were not made of some absolutely hard mutant biological limbs, even the steel had a tendency to melt.
"Stand back, get out of the way!"
Seeing this scene, even if there is no voice shouting that the strangers will retreat, it's too scary, what kind of liquid is this, this is sulfuric acid, no, it's aqua regia that is more terrifying than sulfuric acid, God, is this still an ant!
The paranormals were shocked, they had already come for the mission, they saw with their own eyes the process of a person from a living person to a yellow water, many people flinched for it, everyone in the last days wants to live, it is better not to rush forward at this time.
After the first wave of spraying, the black ants did not immediately start the second wave of spraying, with the influence of the previous wave of spraying, they entered a lot of burrows, the number of black ants was underestimated by the survivors, not only more than 300, but more than 500, the queen ant who did not know where to hide actually used the means to hide.
The leader of the Ant-Man looked at this scene with a face sinking like water, the black ant colony is occupying the exit position step by step, this exit is the exit with the most abilities, if the other entrances and exits are also the same as before, then it is likely that the other exits have been lost, after all, there are not many ant orcs who are loyal to the Ant-Man at the other entrances and exits, once they see the misery of the people who are splashed with liquid, the others are very likely to escape, not possible, they will definitely escape.
"Stop them."
As orcs, they don't have attribute abilities, but their bodies are their most powerful weapons, and they have their own specialties with certain characteristics of the mutated beasts, and the specialty of the ant-people is their strength, as well as their unique calcium armor belonging to the ant-man.
More than two dozen Ant-Man took off their clothes together, revealing the calcareous armor that should have been white inside, but now it seemed to grow on its body, which was a unique defense method of Ant-Man, which was extremely hard and could play a greater role than the strength and ability.
I don't feel that there are clothes in the way, but once the ants take off their clothes, looking at this orc in dark gray armor, Guo Yili's heart is very shocked, is this the way orcs fight, sure enough, the end of the world is the world of evolution of all species, whether it is the supernatural, the ability or the orcs, there has never been a waste race, some are just biological chains and the law of survival of the fittest, even Guo Yili, seeing those ant-man armor that has no abnormalities even if it is poured with transparent liquid, he can't help but be tempted.
Woo, it seems that the application of armor is still very good in the last days, at least it plays an absolute defensive role when encountering something like ant venom, Guo Yili looked down at the equipment full of jewelry on his body, and had the idea of changing his clothes when he went back. (To be continued.) )
