Chapter 67: Happy Little Ants

Osaka, early morning.

In the rising sun, the giant city wakes up lazily, the originally empty streets begin to gradually increase the number of people, the silence is slowly eroded by the hustle and bustle, and the residents who have rested for the night begin to go about their busy lives, in short, it is a calm, no different from usual.

Although the war with the Atlanteans has caused the economy to become more and more sluggish, it is not too intuitive for ordinary people, that is, there are slightly more unemployed people, gasoline prices are slightly more expensive, and there are fewer and fewer fish in the market, but there is nothing else, war is still a distant concept for them.

Unfortunately, they don't know, and it won't be after today.

A very ordinary Toyota Corolla drove along the north-south Midosuji Street into the underground parking lot of the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Shinsaibashi branch on the west side, after parking the car, a young man and woman came out of the car and hurriedly walked to the elevator door, while walking the woman kept complaining that the man got up late, it seems that the little couple had too much fun last night and missed work time.

The man urged her impatiently, but just then the woman stopped, and with a look of surprise on her face, she cast her a nudge, and then changed to the same expression, for a fist-sized hole appeared in the load-bearing wall of the reinforced concrete, and with a clear noise.

He walked over in amazement, touched the small hole with his hand, reached into it like a ghost, and then broke it hard, and in the woman's exclamation, a wall about the size of a tabletop fell with his movements, revealing a dark hole inside.

"Ichiro, let's get out of here!" The woman was obviously frightened by this strange situation, and her little face turned white and urged.

"Wait, I'll take a look!" The man said as he tried to poke his head into the hole.

But at this moment, suddenly a cold light flew out from inside, almost instantly swept over his waist, and then, like a terrifying shot in a parasitic beast, the upper half of the body of this unlucky ghost who still maintained the probe posture smashed directly to the ground, and blood spurted out of his severed waist like a fountain.

"Ahh The woman was so frightened by this horrific scene that she collapsed to the ground, and then let out a heart-rending scream.

At the sound of her scream, a giant black ant with a large silver jaw emerged from the hole, blood still dripping from the jaw, but the gray crescent on its forehead added an inexplicable sense of joy to it.

Of course, the woman couldn't feel this, and she couldn't do anything but scream.

Boss Wang looked at her speechlessly, and pounced without hesitation, the two big jaws suddenly closed, of course he didn't have the habit of killing women, this guy's target was a load-bearing column behind her, and the one-meter-thick reinforced concrete pillar was gnawed off by him by a third, and even the steel bars inside were torn off.

At the same time, the woman's screams came to an abrupt end, and a small ant broke her head in a rough bite, and there was a posture of bowing its head to feast, no wonder, they had been busy all night without eating, but it was clear that it was not time to feast.

Under Wang Yue's command, the little gray gray severely criticized its behavior of ignoring the overall situation, the latter had to leave the food, and the other little ant each found a pillar to gnaw on, the big jaws with titanium alloy sheath were driven by their terrifying power, far more efficient than the demolition machine, the reinforced concrete quickly turned into pieces under their gnawing, one was gnawed and immediately replaced with another, and the pillars that supported the building were broken one by one.

Five minutes later, in the business hall on the first floor, a man who was waiting was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then screamed: "Earthquake! ”

There was a mess around in an instant, and even the guests and staff who handled the business subconsciously looked for a place to drill.

"Bastard, how can there be an earthquake!" A security guard yelled angrily at the man, and people only came to their senses at this time, and they looked carefully at their feet, and there was indeed nothing abnormal.

"Really, there was an earthquake!" The man argued anxiously.

"Bastard, I think I should take you to the police!" The security guard rushed over, but the moment he reached out to grab the man, his feet sank, and the moment he lowered his head, the entire ground collapsed.

At this time, just outside, all the pedestrians on the street stopped, and watched in amazement as the ten-story building collapsed southward like a collapsed building block, and the huge body of reinforced concrete smashed directly into the building of the Osaka branch of the 18th Bank ten meters away in a scream, smashing almost a third of the north side of this unlucky neighbor.

Then, under the heavy pressure of itself, the exterior wall of the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Shinsaibashi branch began to gradually break, and large pieces of glass first rained down, and at the same time, a large number of employees working in their rooms fell like tolls with the broken glass.

The calm of Osaka was shattered by this terrible scene in an instant, the sound of police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances quickly poured from all over the streets, including the officials of the city hall who hurriedly left their work in their hands and rushed to brush up on the zĂ i, they did not know that at this time, the three little ants who had completed the first task had already dragged the two corpses back to the hole to replenish their nutrition.

Two hours later, while the rescue work of the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Shinsaibashi branch was still underway, the Tokio Marine Nichido Fire Insurance Osaka branch building, which was just across the street from here, collapsed without warning, and unlike this side, the building fell to the east, and to the east of it was Midosuji Street, and there was nothing to support it, and the entire building fell directly into the street in less than a minute.

What's even more unfortunate is that because the rescue work is still ongoing, this temporarily blocked most busy street in Osaka is full of all kinds of vehicles parked, crowded with disaster relief personnel, and all those who have not had time to run are smashed underneath, and the casualties caused immediately reached a terrifying number.

Tokyo, who was giving a speech in the House of Representatives, waving his fists and shouting to the lawmakers to fight the shameless seafood to the end, was directly stunned by this terrible news.

"Casualties, I want casualty figures." His lips trembled.

"It is estimated that there will be no less than 1,000 people, and fortunately, the building of the Mitsubishi Tokyo UFJ Shinsaibashi branch was blocked by the building of the 18th Bank and did not really fall, otherwise I am afraid that it is possible to break through 2,000 people." Assistant Prime Minister Eto, who came to report, said.

"Quick, transfer the Self-Defense Forces, use helicopters, be sure to minimize casualties as much as possible, and arrest the builders of these two buildings!" Diaper Brother Iron roared with a blushing face.

He has the heart to bite those builders to death at this time, isn't this purely killing him! Because of the war, his approval rating is about to fall to the bottom, and if he makes such a show again, I am afraid that even if he does not resign, he will have to be ousted from power.

"I'm afraid it's not that simple? I suspect the Atlanteans did it. Assistant Eto said in a low voice.

"The collapse of the building shouldn't have anything to do with the Atlanteans, right?" Diaper brother said suspiciously.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, do you think our buildings will be the same as those tofu scum in China? These two buildings were newly built after the Great Hanshin Earthquake, and they were both resistant to strong earthquakes of magnitude 8 or higher, and at that time, it was said that there were no explosions or any earthquakes, and suddenly they collapsed, as if all the supporting pillars were broken.

What's more, a police officer at the Dadong City Police Department received a report last night that someone saw three ants bigger than a motorcycle burrowing into the sewer, but he thought it was a drunk madman. ”

"Ants?" Diaper brother is about to collapse, aren't Atlanteans sea creatures? How is this even land creatures coming out, this is not scientific!

"Yes, ants, the bite force can reach up to six hundred times the weight of their own body, and if it is an ant the size of a motorcycle, it is easy to bite off a reinforced concrete pillar." Assistant Eto said.

"Quick, go to the Jin Kingdom immediately, go and ask the crab, if it was they did it, if so, sue it, the conditions are negotiable, as long as they stop destroying it immediately." Diaper brother said through gritted teeth.

"Also, keep this matter quiet, so as not to cause a mass panic." Then he added.

But at this moment, a secretary ran in in a panic and said, "Chief, Your Excellency Prime Minister, another building in Osaka has collapsed!" ”

"Bastards, you hateful bastards!" His Excellency the Prime Minister howled like a breakdown.

The ...... that fell this time

Well, this time it fell was the Stick Consulate in Osaka, which is the same street away from the Tokio Marine Nichido Osaka Branch, and like the former, it was facing Midosuji Street and fell, it is said that not only the Stick Consul, but even the US Imperialist Consul was inside, and at this time the whole building was slapped on the street, and it is estimated that it has been more than lucky.

At this time, everyone already understood that this was not an accident, and at the same time, the rescuers who entered the underground parking lot of the Mitsubishi Tokyo UFJ Shinsaibashi branch also found the big hole in the ruins, as well as those bitten off pillars, plus the drunkard who reported the crime told about last night's encounter, everyone can already be sure that under their feet, three cute little ants are grinding their teeth and playing.

The whole of Osaka was in a panic in an instant, and no one dared to stay in the buildings, all of them fled from the buildings one by one, and the entire Namba area was evacuated, and even the western and Naniwa areas began to flee, and countless residents fled to the mountains and the north bank of the Yodo River with water and food, and their sleeping supplies were fleeing towards the mountains and the north bank of the Yodo River, making it feel like the end of the world.
