Chapter 40: The Third Day Begins

On the third day of the apocalypse, early in the morning, when it was just dawn, Tianlan and the others were woken up by a strong vibration.

They weren't harassed by the giant worm last night, but this morning, they were awakened by a strong vibration.

Chu Mosheng, who had just woken up, was full of confusion, and his brain couldn't function normally at all.

Tianlan quickly came to the window and looked at the situation outside.

Everything around me was normal, but the shaking had no intention of stopping.

Not only that, but the tremor seems to be getting stronger, and if it continues, the building will be dangerous.

Tianlan, who realized this, did not hesitate at all, and directly left here with Chu Mosheng, who had not fully woken up.

The weather is very hot in the summer, but it is still very cool in the morning.

Chu Mosheng, who was still confused, came outside, feeling a little cool breeze, and instantly sobered up.

However, even when she was awake, the tremors did not go away, but became stronger.

"What the hell is going on?" Chu Mosheng subconsciously asked this question, but when she reacted, she felt a bit silly to ask like this.

If Tianlan knew about this problem, it wouldn't be like this.

But what the hell was going on, they quickly understood.

When I came to Tianlan on the street, I saw a huge taro worm, almost the size of a ten-story building.

The taro worm was coming towards their location, and as it wriggled and gnawed at everything around it, including the building.

As the taro worms wriggled, the ground trembled, and the sensation grew closer and closer to them.

If you stay here, you'll be crushed by this giant taro.

As for whether they will be eaten, it is undoubtedly a foolish question, for taro insects, they are just ants, and they can't even fill their stomachs.

Instead of thinking about this problem, the thing to do now should be to find a way to escape.

According to the direction in which the taro worm is moving, it is only a matter of time before it arrives here, so it is better to leave before it arrives.

Thinking of this, Tianlan planned to leave here with Chu Mosheng.

In this regard, Chu Mosheng did not object, but asked, "Regardless of Moyang, do you care about them?" ”

Anyway, Mo Yang is also a member of their team, so wouldn't it be a bit too much to just let it go?

"It's fine." Tianlan didn't bother to care about their life or death.

And they also have a certain amount of strength, if they die at this level, it will be a real bargain.

After getting such an answer, Chu Mosheng didn't hesitate anything, and fled here with Tianlan.

Fortunately, the giant taro worm is not targeting them, their location is just the place it is going to pass through.

This made Tianlan feel lucky, but Chu Mosheng realized that something was wrong.

"It's weird, it's kind of weird."

Tianlan looked at Chu Mosheng suspiciously, Chu Mosheng knew much more about insects than herself, and now she said that it was strange, so there must be something strange in it.

Chu Mosheng also quickly gave an explanation.

"According to the size of the taro insect, the size of this taro insect is too short!"

Generally, the size of the taro insect is determined by its own thickness.

But this taro insect is different, the thickness is almost ten meters, or even thicker.

But the length is very short, and the shortness is ridiculous.

According to the normal proportions, the standard body length of this taro insect should be about 50 meters long, but now it is only 20 meters, which is completely lower than the original body proportion.

Thinking of this, Chu Mosheng instantly realized something, and shouted loudly: "Cocoonization!" It's about forming cocoons and then metamorphosing from larvae to adults! ”

Taro insects spend their entire lives eating in order to accumulate the energy to transform into adults.

And when they are about to become adults, their body size will begin to shrink, and then they will become a pupa that will disrupt all the cells in the pupae, reorganize, and finally turn into a butterfly.

Looking at the appearance of this taro worm, it is now out of the moment of pupation, and now it must urgently need a place where it can form a cocoon, and then stay in the cocoon to metamorphose.

"Yes." Yin Yue, who appeared next to Chu Mosheng at some point, looked at the huge taro worm and said expectantly: "How beautiful should such a big caterpillar be after turning into a butterfly?!" ”

"No, it won't turn into a butterfly."

"What?" Yin Yue was incredulous.

"It won't turn into a butterfly." Chu Mosheng ruthlessly dispelled her delusions, and explained: "It's a silkworm, it won't turn into a butterfly, it will only become a big fluttering moth." ”

Taro does not refer to a type of larvae, but rather a general term for insect larvae.

And now this taro insect, although its body has begun to shrink, Chu Mosheng can still recognize its species.

Yin Yue, who was ruthlessly interrupted from her delusions, was extremely lost at the moment, as if she had lost her ideals in life.

For such a Yin Yue, Mo Yang directly chose to ignore it, and then said: "If it's a silkworm, then it should be no problem." After all, silkworms are very mild taro insects and do not cause much harm to humans. ”

"Huh!" Chu Mosheng let out a merciless laugh.

Who said that silkworms are very docile, and the docility of silkworms is just a definition given to them by human beings without authorization.

The real silkworm is very brutal.

Their stomachs are like a huge bottomless pit that feeds on them before they become adults.

It's just that after being domesticated by humans, they only eat mulberry leaves, and in fact, silkworms in nature also eat some plants with tall stems.

This will help them form cocoons more easily.

Don't look at them as just eating plants, in fact they are not picky eaters, not only plants, but even meat, they will eat it.

Of course, in general, they do not eat meat, because they have a layer of fine hairs on their mouths.

It's this layer of villi that helps them identify food.

If this layer of fluff is scraped off, the silkworm will become a ruthless feeding machine, regardless of the consequences, as long as it can reach it, it will become their food, including their companions and themselves.

Therefore, the average person's awareness of insects is still too little. Only stay in your own cognition, and you don't really understand the nature of these insects at all.

And Chu Mosheng, who knew this very well, was shocked now.

Looking at the appearance of this silkworm, it is simply like that, it will not care about any consequences, as long as it can touch something, it will be devoured.

But fortunately, they are not in the path of this silkworm, and there is such a big movement, compared to the military, they will not be watching.

Sure enough, after a while, the sound of fighter jets passing by was heard in the sky.

The morning that had been silent was soon covered with a roar.

The military, who arrived without any hesitation, fired directly at the huge silkworm, constantly bombarding the other side with artillery shells and grenades.

However, the silkworm's skin is very flexible, and no matter how much they bomb, at most it only leaves a cloud of dust on the giant silkworm's body, and does not cause any substantial damage.

However, the military did not eat dry food, and seeing that the first round of attacks had no effect, they replaced them with armor-piercing shells, intending to carry out a covering attack on the taro worms again.

But before they could launch new missiles, a large number of bugs suddenly appeared out of nowhere and stopped this wave of attacks.

The number of swarms is very large, and each bug has its own bugs, each of which is about the size of their armored vehicle, and it is impossible to ignore it.

In order to protect themselves, they can only temporarily leave the target away from the giant silkworm, and choose to deal with this group of annoying bugs first.

And the giant silkworm is still moving forward, while moving forward, gnawing at the surrounding buildings and road sections.

At this moment, Chu Mosheng opened the map on his mobile phone, and after a while, Chu Mosheng pointed to a location and said: "If it wants to form a cocoon and turn into a butterfly, that location is the best place, we have to stop it!" ”

In that direction is a huge statue, a landmark of the city that was recently built to attract attention.

And this statue is very complicated, very ten are used to form cocoons, and the direction of this giant silkworm is there.

But at this moment, Tianlan hesitated.

He is not a person who will work hard for others, and if he can't see something beneficial to him in this operation, then he will never help.

Chu Mosheng looked at the unmoved Tianlan, she understood what Tianlan was thinking, so she said to Tianlan: "If you want to survive with the help of human power, then you have to do it!" ”

If a giant insect is left alone, it will be a great harm to them and to humans.

Especially for enemies like silkworms, although after turning into butterflies, silkworms don't have to eat anything.

But the silkworm after this is the most terrifying.

Not to mention the fact that moths themselves carry their own phosphorus powder, just laying eggs is enough for humans to drink a pot.

Silkworm moths that have been reaching adulthood can lay up to hundreds, or even tens of thousands, of eggs a day.

Once these eggs hatch, it will be a fatal blow to humans.

In addition to spawning accidents, there is also the existence of phosphopho powder.

Although Chu Mosheng didn't know what harm the silkworm moth's phosphorus powder was to humans, according to the current situation, it was definitely not a good thing.

Very good, Chu Mosheng successfully impressed Tianlan.

After thinking about the pros and cons, Tianlan didn't hesitate anything, grabbed Chu Mosheng's back, and quickly rushed in the direction where the silkworm was going.

It is impossible to stop a giant worm in the middle of the way, so all Tianlan can do now is to set up a trap at the end and wait for the other party to take the bait.

And Chu Mosheng looked at Tian Lan who chose to help her, and she was very relieved in her heart, but the place that Tian Lan grabbed made her very uncomfortable.

Since Chu Mosheng is wearing a backless top now, Tianlan can't grab the collar.

Yes, Tianlan who can't catch the collar can only choose where she can catch it.

"Wait......! Change places! Please, catch it in another place! ”

Now where Tianlan is grabbing, except for the strap of the underwear, there is really nowhere to catch it.

Of course, Tianlan didn't care about these things.
