Chapter 195: Strange Town

These locusts seem to be completely unaffected by the storm in this storm, it seems that these locusts are very difficult to deal with, since they can survive in the storm, then it means that they have no less speed than the storm, although you think they are not moving, but maybe it is moving too fast?

"Prepare to attack!" The officer at the head shouted.

Immediately, each soldier pulled out a bottle-like object from his duffel bag, what appeared to be pepper, and sprinkled it on himself.

At this time, the dense locusts aimed at a soldier and pressed them in unison. But as soon as they landed on the soldier, the locusts rained down one by one, as if roasted by fire. Immediately, several soldiers on the side immediately lit a fire to the pile of locusts piled up on the ground.

"Snort......"

With this popping sound and a foul smell, the locusts were eliminated.

Su Qiubai couldn't help but be a little surprised, if it was a change of himself, he might only choose to avoid these locusts, he didn't expect that these people would complete the task so simply and efficiently, and he soon admired it.

However, the officer-level person did not mean to relax because of this, and looked heavily guarded, could it be that there was anything else to come?

Feeling the material in the storm carefully, Su Qiubai suddenly found something similar to mosquitoes, the reason why it is similar is because these things look exactly like mosquitoes, but it is impossible for ordinary mosquitoes to survive in such a powerful storm, so Su Qiubai thinks so.

After a while, the mosquitoes, which were originally difficult to find, slowly gathered, just like the locusts just now, and quickly gathered into a group. With a buzzing sound, he gradually approached the side of the special forces.

"Prepare the fire!" It was still the same officer who spoke.

"Yes!" The soldiers next to him echoed.

As the thousands of mosquitoes approached, only about a meter or two, all the soldiers took a sip of what was in the kettle.

"Gollum ......"

Then, take the lighter out of your pocket.

"Flutter ......" The raging oil fire suddenly erupted from his mouth. Suddenly, the swarm of mosquitoes kept falling down.

Feeling the breath of death flowing in the air, Su Qiubai's expression became solemn.

Is this what the old man said about the horror in or behind the storm? If there were no special forces here today, would they be able to successfully defuse this crisis?

The answer is no, Su Qiubai came up with this answer with some disappointment.

However, when I think about it, I am relieved, since the special forces know the storage of these things, how can it be clear that they naturally have a way?

……

In this way, the special forces fended off several rounds of attacks by mutated monsters such as locusts, mosquitoes, snakes, and birds, leaving mountains of corpses on the ground, but the battle continued.

Fought from the afternoon to the night, and from the night to the day of the next day.

When there was a glimmer of light in the east, this powerful storm gradually weakened its sharpness, and the sky was not as oppressive as yesterday, and the air was no longer full of desert wind and sand.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that there were no other mutated species that the faces of all the special soldiers slowly showed a hint of relaxation.

After almost a day and a night of fighting, and it was so intense that even an iron man couldn't stand it. The officers counted the number of losses, and a total of five soldiers were killed and eight were wounded.

Looking at the corpses on the ground, the officer waved his hand and said, "Recover the corpses of these species immediately!" ”

Hearing the commander's order, the soldiers who were still on standby immediately sat up, and a few sets of sacks came from nowhere.

Then another person was ordered, and the corpses began to be packed inside.

After some effort, the soldiers finally packed the trophies and put them on top of the military jeep they had been sitting in.

"Assemble! Count! Seeing that the scene was almost cleaned up, the chief shouted.

The surrounding soldiers quickly gathered: "One, two, three......"

"Alright, ready to go back!" The chief ordered.

"Hoo ......"

With a long roar, the special forces soon left the town again, and all their footprints here were cleared, that is, it was as if they had never been here!

The special forces tossed and turned here for a day and a night, while the town's natives and tourists had already dispersed and returned to their residences to rest.

The only one who remembered the battle situation of the special forces was Su Qiubai.

At this time, the old man from yesterday actually appeared next to Su Qiubai again, looking at the trembling old man yesterday, Su Qiubai said jokingly: "Uncle, is this what you are talking about?" Don't you say that the desert storm is on the edge, and all living beings will be ruined because of it? You see, aren't we all alive and well now? ”

Sighing, the old man said with a wry smile: "Young man, that legend is not so simple, although our lives were saved yesterday, but it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no such thing in the future, those people can save us once, but what about the second and third time?" They can't always be so lucky to get rid of those things, and we don't always have the luxury of expecting a savior to keep us safe. ”

The pessimism in the old man's tone was overflowing, if it wasn't these mutated locusts that he encountered last night, but some ordinary robbers or hooligans and ruffians or the like, Su Qiubai would definitely not take it seriously.

However, mutant species, that is something that is still elusive!

Su Qiubai thought that yesterday's scene should have been deeply imprinted in the old man's heart. The old man's courage was not very good, and he was still so sad and sad that it was too difficult for him not to believe in the legend of the so-called storm.

Thinking that yesterday's shopping was interrupted by this storm, Su Qiubai found a store again and walked in.

As for before, the old man still persuaded bitterly: "Young man, run away if you can from this place, my old man has sharp legs and feet, and he is old, and now he is not afraid of life and death, you are still young, don't go to any desert, go home early!" ”

Thinking of the old man's words, Su Qiubai smiled helplessly, this old man is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic!

After finishing shopping, it was close to noon, that is, at this hour yesterday, I found a random restaurant and hastily ate something, and Su Qiubai walked around.

I didn't sleep all night last night and just watched the special forces fight, and now I'm a little sleepy.

So Su Qiubai found a hotel and planned to stay here for the night, make up for sleep, and set off tomorrow. Otherwise, when the time comes, there will be no soft bed to rest in the hotel.

At night, the town of Blusco.

At this moment, Su Qiubai was lying on the bed in the hotel, his eyes looking at the ceiling.

I was still tired, but since I entered the hotel, it has completely faded, and I can't help but think of yesterday's events again.

Strange old people, sudden storms, well-timed special forces, and mutated species.

In this desert, how many unknown things are still hidden!

It's been more than an hour, but Su Qiubai doesn't feel sleepy at all, it's eleven o'clock now, and for the people on the edge of the desert, it's already late at night, so the lights have already been turned off outside, and there is no sound.

"Tick Tick ......"

Listening to the sound of the second hand of the clock hanging on the wall, the surroundings that were extremely quiet suddenly sounded a noise!

It was as if everyone outside had gotten up at this time, with footsteps, talking, and crashing.

It's so late, what are you doing, Su Qiubai can't help but wonder. So, he got up, and instead of opening the door, he opened a window at the head of the bed.

At this glance, Su Qiubai saw a strange scene that he had never seen before, and saw that there were hundreds of people on the streets of the town at the moment!

If they were doing something, it would be understandable. But now that the lights of the town are all out, and Su Qiubai looks over, those people's eyes are all closed, and their hands are rising straight forward like zombies, and then rubbing against each other, slowly walking forward.

Will this be an event? The answer is definitely not!

Sleepwalking? Hundreds of people sleepwalking at the same time is too shocking to say!

Su Qiubai couldn't sit still any longer, and hurriedly opened the door, ready to rush out to take a look. But at the moment when Su Qiubai just opened the door, Su Qiubai was frightened!

A person was standing in the doorway, motionless, and unlike the people downstairs, this one was now with his eyes open!

It's the old man! The old man who declared to himself that the storm would be terrible and that the life of the town would be destroyed!

couldn't help but swallow his saliva, Su Qiubai said, "Uncle, you, why are you here?" ”

"Young man, you have seen it all, you are afraid!" The old man looked teasing and said slowly.

Su Qiubai didn't answer immediately, thought about it, and then replied, "Why aren't you the same as them?" ”

Regarding Su Qiubai's question, the old man seemed to have expected it, smiled, and said, "Don't worry, I will tell you everything, but I hope you can help us!" ”

"Why do you trust me so much that I can help you?" Su Qiubai asked puzzled.

The old man looked solemn, paused, and said, "Intuition! ”

"Poof......

The reason why the people in the town are like this is because they are all poisoned, and the old man only knows that this poison is transmitted through the only water source in the town, and as for why the old man is not poisoned, the reason is very simple, that is, the old man did not drink the water there. The old man's house was low and surrounded by a forest, so the water source was different from other places, and the old man dug a well there by himself, but escaped by mistake.

According to the old man, he had only noticed the strangeness of the people in the town half a year ago, and the first time he saw such a scene, when the old man was almost frightened to death, and the residents who had been hanging out all night all night had been out and walking the streets every night since eleven o'clock at night, and would not return until the early hours of the morning.

The old man said that he had found with my fellow residents that they had gone as far as the desert, because the old man was too old and infirm to keep up.

Naturally, the old man also told these residents about their sleepwalking, but the residents only thought that the old man was joking, or that he was demented, and they ignored him.

After listening to the old man's speech, Su Qiubai also looked stern.

"I feel like there's someone in the desert, and the townspeople are walking there, as if they're going to do something. I think it's the demons in the desert that make them like this! Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but grit his teeth, how could the old man not be sad when he saw that the people who had lived with him for decades suddenly became like this.
