"This group of raiders must have been attacked by bugs, judging from the marks on the body, it may be poisonous bee bugs, and I saw a lot of pinprick marks on the body. In addition, no one was seen. It may have been dragged away by bugs, but I didn't find any traces of dragging, so it's likely that the bugs tore them apart and ate them on the spot. Ning Yi simply made a report on the results of his inspection.

Bugs are very economical, and what they eat will not leave any traces, after all, bugs will clean up even the residue.

Everyone knows this habit of insects, and since Ning Yi said that he didn't see people, then there is a chance that the latter is the case. Although the raiders were very hateful, now that they were buried in the belly of insects, it still made everyone in the hunting party feel a lot more gloomy.

The two cars of the Human Weapons Hunting Team came back at the time when the gates of the airport settlement were closed.

At this time, the patrol team guarding at the north gate also knew that the human weapon hunting team was out to investigate the insect swarm in S County, but at this time, when they saw the members of the human weapon hunting team, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, so no one in the patrol team took the initiative to ask.

After the inspection was completed, Lao Chen and Lao Wang drove the vehicle to the place where Lao Wang lived, and this time every time they did routine work, after each mission, Lao Wang had to inspect and maintain the vehicle. After all, the vehicle is a very important material for the hunting team, and if it is not well maintained, it will be bad if the car suddenly fails to drive when encountering a large number of bugs.

Nanxing and Murong went home directly, Zhou Shuyun knew that the two children had to do a very dangerous task, they couldn't eat well in the past few days, they couldn't sleep well, they didn't even take the task of picking beans, they worshiped the gods and Buddhas at home every day, and begged them to bless their children to return safely.

Ning Yi did not go back to his residence, but went directly to Li Chen.

……

"Look at your face, the situation of the insect swarm is not optimistic?" As soon as Li Chen looked at Ning Yi's face, he knew that the matter of the insect swarm might not be easy to handle.

Ning Yi didn't hide it, and recounted everything they saw and heard along the way, emphasizing that there seemed to be intelligent bugs controlling the swarm, and the size of the swarm might increase in a short period of time, and the swarm was moving, and unfortunately, the direction might be the airport settlement.

In addition, Ning Yi also said that he encountered a lot of bugs on the road that he had never seen before, and the evolution or mutation of bugs was accelerating, perhaps to adapt to the environment, or it may have been controlled in some way.

Li Chen put his chin on his hand for a long time before he said: "This series of bad news really makes people feel heavy. If the swarm is really coming towards the settlement, what do you think? ”

"My opinion?" Ning Yi shook his head, "I don't have an opinion, the insect swarm within a radius of nearly three kilometers, even if these insects are all attacking by instinct, it is not something that our settlement of less than 10,000 people can deal with." ”

"Yes, if the settlement is full of hi abilities, the number of about 10,000 may be able to compete with the insect swarm, but the number of people in our settlement is less than two thousand, and many of them are not suitable for combat. Now things are tricky. Li Chen was silent, as if thinking about how to respond.

Ning Yi thought for a while and said, "Can you let the people in the settlement evacuate?" ”

"Evacuate? Talking about it is not easy, not to mention whether everyone agrees or not, but where to evacuate is a big question. And with so many people on the road, it will definitely cause the insects around to move. Li Chen took out something like a cigarette from the iron box in his hand, but it seemed that the match was damp, and Li Chen melted it several times, but the match did not melt.

Ning Yi saw the anxiety in his heart from Li Chen's movements, reached out and touched a box of matches in his waist bag and handed it over.

Li Chen didn't answer the match, and put the cigarette in his hand back into the iron box, "In this way, I'll be anxious to discuss it with the management tomorrow, and you don't leak the news about the swarm, so as not to cause panic." ”

"By the way, the matter of the brain-eating worm before ......" Ning Yi thought of this when he heard the three words of the management, so he asked.

Li Chen waved his hand, "The management has already checked and found no infection." ”

"That's good." Ning Yi stood up and prepared to leave, "I hope that the settlement of the swarm can be prepared early. ”

……

When Nanxing and Murong returned home, the look on Zhou Shuyun's face turned from cloudy to sunny.

After the family of three had dinner, Nanxing thought about it and told Zhou Shuyun about the swarm.

"Huh? So serious? Will it really come to the settlement? ”

Nanxing thought to himself that unless I wasn't here, I'm afraid the swarm would definitely come, and now I just hope that because of the distance, that guy won't sense his specific location too quickly.

Murong nodded, "It's hard to say now, but it's definitely right to take precautions in advance." Mom, you can quietly stock up on some defensive things these days, which are suitable for you. ”

Zhou Shuyun showed an embarrassed expression, "I'm so old, you kid still want me to dance with a knife and a gun?" ”

"Mom, Murong is right. If the bugs do come, the management of the settlement will definitely recruit the people of the hunting team, and I am afraid that the two of us will not be able to take care of you at that time. ”

"It's true that you take care of yourselves. I'm so old, if there is a day, I'll go down to be with your father. ”

"Mom, what are you talking about?" Nanxing couldn't hear this kind of thing the most, probably because she had no parents since she was a child in 3700, and she couldn't see her parents leave or die by themselves for fear of delaying their children, "Otherwise, I'll talk to Captain Ning when I go back, in case the management recruits people from the hunting team, I'll let Murong come back to take care of you." ”

Murong was obviously dissatisfied with Nanxing's platoon, "Sister, you should take care of Mom, I'll go to the front to kill insects." ”

"I'm more excited than you." Nanxing suddenly had an idea when he said this, "My space has been upgraded, I can hide in it, if I am defeated, I will hide in the space, and when the insects retreat, I will go to you." ”

Murong obviously didn't believe Nanxing's words, obviously he said before that the ability to upgrade the space was to view data, how could he still put people in at this time.

Nanxing had no choice but to show Murong a demonstration, which convinced Murong. Then Nanxing instructed Zhou Shuyun not to tell others about this matter, it would be bad if the insect swarm did not come to cause a riot.

Zhou Shuyun is a person who has experienced the beginning of the insect disaster, and naturally knows that once people are in chaos, it is more troublesome than any bug or weapon, so after Nanxing finished speaking, she also nodded and said that she would never say anything outside.

……

Two days had passed, and the situation in the airport settlement had been as usual, and there was no sign that there was any preparation for the swarm.

Nanxing walked around the settlement and found that it was no different from usual. However, when Nanxing turned to the distribution of materials and the exchange of locks, he keenly felt a trace of abnormality.

In the past, although the distribution and exchange of materials would also control the quantity, ordinary grains, such as potatoes, which are always high-yielding goods, will not limit how much people can exchange. But today, Nanxing found that a notice was posted in front of the exchange office, saying that the settlement was to breed, so potatoes could only be exchanged for two catties per person per day.

Although everyone is not satisfied with the restriction on the number of exchanges, ordinary adults can fill their stomachs with two catties of potatoes a day, so those people just complained a few words and did not take other actions.

After that, Nanxing walked to Brother Yu's sales store and found that there were a lot less things here, although the store was not full of things, but you could also see a lot of things, but today there are only three or four kinds of things, and they are all common foods.
