Chapter Seventy-Five: A Feast in the Woods

Under Xia Lingyun's precise operation, the Sun Xingzhi 8 drone quietly followed behind one of the hornets. Pressed against the outer wall of the roof, suddenly the hornets stopped above a neighborhood square, restlessly flapping their wings.

In the middle of the square is an artificial lake surrounded by green space, and a group of hundreds of infected zombies seems to be preying on a gray beetle in the woodland by the lake. The dense insect eggs on the trunks of the trees in the woodland were torn off by the zombies in pieces, Wang Zhiyuan looked at the picture of the zombies eating the insect eggs and asked: "Cortana~ These beetles look like they should be some kind of tree beetle bugs, and the infected humans actually go to prey on beetles?" ”

Cortana clicked on a few pictures of beetle bugs and compared, "It should be normal, even if humans are unconscious by fungal infection, they need energy to move their bodies, that's for sure." ”

The gray beetle bug jumped down from the branch, and the pointed mouthparts stabbed ferociously into the head of the infected zombie, and a zombie grabbed a pair of front limbs of the beetle bug with both hands, writhed and struggled for a while, and then lay on the ground and did not move.

Several infected zombies around quickly pounced on the beetle bugs more than a meter long, gnawing and tearing frantically, and dismembered the beetle bugs into a pile of stumps in a few clicks. Dozens of gray beetle bugs were pulled from the trunk of the tree by the zombie swarm along with the dense insect eggs around them, and the beetle bug's sucking mouthparts did not cause much damage to the infected human individuals.

The infected zombies were feasting in the woodland, and the hornets that were being tracked by the unmanned robot dog turned and flew over. Soon the two bee colonies merged into one large bee colony, and the entire woodland was covered with black bee colonies that blocked out the sunlight.

After changing the frequency of the wing resonance a few times, the swarm of bees scattered through the air and pounced on the zombie swarms in the woodland that were still gnawing on the stumps and eggs of the beetles. Wang Zhiyuan looked at the picture transmitted from the Sun Xingzhi 8 drone and said: "It seems that ~ the infected body is not exactly the enemy of human beings~ Robot No. 5 turned into a spider form and went out from here to the limit distance of signal transmission, and found a commanding height to carry out wireless signal relay operations." ”

The infected zombies don't seem to care about the threat of rushing down their heads, and a large number of zombies in the woodland are pounced on the back by the hornets and bite the back of the neck, and the hornets shake their fat bellies and pierce the zombies' backs and spines with stingers.

Those zombies who were not stung through the spine by the hornets completely ignored the giant hornets that were biting their bodies, and immediately pounced on them to bite and tear and attack the other zombie hornets.

Soon, a large number of wasps and zombies were biting and rolling in the woodland. A number of other insects, large and small, emerged from the vicinity of the woodland to join the frenzied battle.

Although the exoskeleton and mouthparts of hornets have some advantages over zombies, the number of infected zombies is much larger than that of wasps, and the coordination between zombies seems to be better than that of ants.

Wang Zhiyuan was drinking small herbal tea and watching a group of infected creatures fighting in the woodland by the lake, when Xia Lingyun's voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie: "Red wolf~ You come over here." ”

I took some pot of small herbal tea from the storage compartment and went into the small bedroom in the tail compartment of the tank. Xia Lingyun leaned on the head of the bed wearing a commemorative T-shirt of the world of chariots, holding the tablet in her hand and staring at the picture that came back. Seeing Wang Zhiyuan coming in, he said: "Red wolf~ Come and see, these infected people even eat anything, don't you think it's incredible?" ”

Wang Zhiyuan sat next to her and handed her a bottle of small herbal tea and said, "It's normal~ What's so strange, no matter what kind of infected organism it is, it needs energy to sustain life in the final analysis, and it's normal to prey on other creatures." ”

Raising his left arm to open the beep boy, he looked at the picture sent back by Robot 5, the picture was extremely elegant, and it felt like Robot 5 was crawling and jumping between tall buildings like Spider-Man. After a while, he climbed up to a telecommunications company's signal tower, and a red mechanical spider hung from the silver-gray signal tower.

Xia Lingyun looked at the beep boy on Wang Zhiyuan's left arm and said very curiously: "Red wolf~ This is an armband computer, which is really good, and we also have a similar distribution, but unfortunately I didn't have time to bring it when I came out." ”

Wang Zhiyuan glanced at her little worried eyes and said: "My name is Wang Zhiyuan, I am not a soldier, the code name of Red Wolf is my own, after all, this time is unpredictable, and if you are not careful, you will have to worry about your life." ”

Xia Lingyun smiled slyly and said, "After so many days, I haven't said a few words, I thought you were a bionic robot." In just over half an hour, the hornets that rushed into the woods were basically wiped out, and only more than 20 of them flew in the air and fled to the east.

Seeing that such a large bee colony was wiped out, Xia Lingyun put her hand on the drone take-off control button on the screen, turned her head and asked, "Now do you want to take off and chase after it to determine the location of the beehive?" ”

Wang Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Wait a minute~ Hornets will not admit defeat easily, and if you guessed correctly, there will be more hornets to retaliate." And I think there must be something in the water, and there are more or less infected creatures in the waters along the way. ”

While he was talking, a group of infected zombies rushed to the lake frantically as if they had suddenly received some signal. Lying on the edge of the lake, the whole head plunged into the water, and for a while the stomach swelled into a round ball because of drinking water.

Looking at the picture of hundreds of zombies drinking into leather balls by the lake on the screen, Xia Lingyun asked with some laughter: "What are they doing, which zombie movie doesn't say that zombies like to drink water~ This is not logical~"

Wang Zhiyuan said while looking at the path point transmitted back by the mechanical dog: "This should be normal, they are infected by some kind of alien fungus, and most fungi need a lot of water to grow and reproduce." There are similar fungal species on Earth, but no cases of infection in humans have been found. ”

For the first time, I experienced the feeling of being a school bully and was worshipped, and I just had a small impulse when I looked at Xia Lingyun's adoring eyes. The tablet screen suddenly switched to Cortana and said: "Master Chief ~ Several four-meter-sized beetles were found behind the hull of the car, and they were approaching. ”

Wang Zhiyuan opened the equipment cabinet next to the bed, took an AK47 and a few magazines, and said to Xia Lingyun: "I want to find a way to deal with it, you continue to monitor the place over there, and contact me if there is any change." ”

Xia Lingyun made an OK gesture, and Wang Zhiyuan looked through the shooting hole of the tail hatch to see three black bulls the size of off-road vehicles gnawing on the tires of roadside cars along the street.

The big cow ripped off a car tire in a few bites, and the thick chelicated mouthparts chewed the tire in a few minutes and swallowed it into the stomach. Wang Zhiyuan returned to the bedroom, took a gray sweater from the closet, and put it in the bathroom sink to wet it.
