Chapter 659: The Insect Tide Rises Again
Chu Ge's pupils suddenly contracted like the tip of a needle.
After a few moments, the reflection of the light like a ball of lightning turned into a snowy white.
Before he could react, a deafening roar came from the ground where the bright light flashed, and then the mountain shook like a dragon dormant in the ground, spreading its teeth and claws, and soaring into the air, causing the entire street to burst open.
"Boom!"
"Click!"
"Bang la la la!"
The shock wave roared out from the ground, like a shadowless but devastating army, stirring the air, shaking the reinforced concrete, and blowing all the glass windows of the surrounding buildings to pieces.
Chu Ge happened to be standing at the window, but he bore the brunt of it, feeling that the tip of his nose was hammered hard by the heavyweight boxer, tears and snot came out of his eyes, and he subconsciously closed his eyes, just dodging the glass ballasts like bullets, strafing the eyeballs, but his face was pierced by thousands of glass ballasts...... A little bit.
With the explosion of the entire street, seventy or eighty cars were blasted into the air by the shock wave, and then "crackled" and fell, just like a grotesque and terrifying rain of steel.
Then, there is the flame.
The raging flames, like a monstrous dragon, rose from the ground and spread across the main roads of the community, licking the residential buildings on both sides.
Fortunately, the residential buildings in this area are all stupid and coarse black old-fashioned designs, and the rough cement exterior walls are not equipped with too many flammable thermal insulation paints, so they can't burn for a while.
However, the explosion just now, the current flames, coupled with the continuous cracking of the earth, as well as the continuous "aftershocks" from far and near, still torture the rigid support of the residential building.
Many cracks have climbed from the ground to the wall, and even through the entire building, and the scene is shocking and precarious.
Within a minute of the explosion, Chu Ge's eyes were full of stars, and his nostrils, ears, and corners of his mouth were wet with blood, and he couldn't see or hear clearly.
A minute later, the whole Happy New Village exploded.
The sound of burglar sirens in cars, the cries of residents, the collapse of a house somewhere, the sound of the earth continuing to crack...... Gathered into a screaming symphony, Rao is a senior awakened person like Chu Ge was a little dazed and unable to parry.
"Yes, it was the eruption of the underground spiritual veins that caused a small-scale earthquake, and the earthquake damaged the underground gas pipeline in the happy community, causing a big gas explosion?"
Chu Ge didn't bother to clean up the stinging glass ballast on his face, and threw himself into the broken window to look at it again, and saw that the entire main road of the community had collapsed, revealing a ravine about three or five meters deep, in which green flames were rolling, which should be caused by the combustion of pipeline gas mixed with impurities.
His mind raced, and he immediately made a judgment.
However, in the core of the city in the distance, the successive explosions, rising fireballs, and "aftershocks" that came one after another made him fall into deep confusion again.
"It shouldn't be!
"The shaking of the earth was not particularly strong, and the aftershocks were sporadic and came from all directions, not quite like naturally occurring earthquakes of high intensity.
"But if it weren't for a high-intensity earthquake, how could it have collapsed so many underground gas pipes in so many places across the city at the same time, causing so many strange explosions?"
Chu Ge smelled a hint of conspiracy.
Raising his wrist, Chu Ge prepared to contact President Yu through the wrist-type tactical communicator and ask about the situation on the side of the Extraordinary Association.
However, the small square in the upper right corner of the LCD screen of the tactical communicator, which represents the signal, is intermittent and intermittent.
"No signal?"
Chu Ge scolded.
In the era of Reiki revival, this is the worst, because the atmosphere is full of psionic ripples inside and outside, just like the sunspot explosion, which often forms a strong interference with wireless signals.
Earth science and technology are temporarily helpless against such interference, so they can only adopt clumsy methods to build more communication base stations, strengthen the position of wired communications, and bury 10 times more cables and optical cables underground than in the past.
But now, not to mention the interference of the wireless signal by the eruption of the underground spiritual veins, the nearby cables and optical cables were obviously shattered and completely paralyzed by a series of underground gas pipelines exploded.
Chu Ge fell into an island of information.
It was dark all around, and the water and electricity in Xingfu New Village had been cut off, and the thousands of panicked residents were surrounded only by the green ghost fire, and ......
"Buzz buzz!"
As the blood dried up, Chu Ge regained his keen sense of hearing, and suddenly heard a familiar and strange voice coming from the ground outside the window.
Looking at the source of the sound, he saw that the dual effect of the underground spiritual veins gushing and the explosion of pipeline gas tore apart the solid underground rock formations one after another—these black and swarthy cracks, although not enough for humans to pass through, were more than enough to become a shortcut for snakes, insects, rats and ants to enter the surface world.
At this moment, a large number of floaters the size of dragonflies gathered into a rising pillar of smoke, rushing out of the ground and condensing into a wriggling dark cloud in mid-air.
Chu Ge was dumbfounded, his scalp exploded, and he thought of one thing in an instant.
That's right, in the past month or so, the military, led by Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, has painstakingly and spared no effort to build an impregnable underground defense line in the underground of Lingshan City, and 90% of the underground cracks have been monitored and locked to ensure that not a single bug or rat can climb to the ground along these cracks.
But, if not the gaps that existed in the first place.
But five minutes ago, it was just born, and it went straight to the ground, or rather, the crevice from the ground to the ground?
It is not yet known whether this series of small-scale "earthquakes" just now, coupled with the explosion of underground gas pipelines, will cause fatal damage to the high-rise buildings on the ground, but Chu Ge can be sure that it must have brought a devastating blow to the known cracks in the underground, including the underground defense network and alert system that the military has worked so hard to build and smash down a lot of resources to build, and those most advanced wireless monitoring probes and remote control combat robots have all been completely buried by hundreds of millions of tons of rocks!
"How can this be, didn't geological experts just recently issue a report, the geological structure under Lingshan City is quite stable in the near future, and it is impossible for a large-scale disaster to occur?"
Chu Ge swallowed a mouthful of his own blood and felt bitter in his mouth.
Since it is necessary to suppress the underground threat, it is impossible to be ignorant of the geological situation, Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting may be a martial artist, but he is by no means a reckless and unwise person, before the whole operation began, he also had the Lingshan City Council, which had already invited the world's top geological survey institutions to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the underground situation in Lingshan City.
Lingshan City was originally not located in several major earthquake zones around the world, except for the darkest years of the Calamity Era, there was a "doomsday earthquake", and in the following decades, there has never been a major earthquake that affected the whole city, today's disaster is sudden, is it a natural disaster or-
"Buzz buzz!"
Before the word "man-made disaster" popped up in Chu Ge's mind, swarms of mutant giant mosquitoes had already discovered him.
These mutant insects that grow underground, their eyesight is about equal to zero, but they have an extremely keen sense of smell, Chu Ge did not restrain the surging spiritual energy around them in order to prevent the shock wave and flame burning, in their eyes, it was as clear as a torch lit in the night.
Therefore, these mutated giant mosquitoes followed the instinct of moths to fight fire, turned into black tides, and pounced towards Chu Ge.
"Good time!"
Chu Ge was hoping that these mutant giant mosquitoes would pounce in front of him and send them to death, otherwise, if these insects scattered and attacked the elderly and aunts in the community, it would not be something that ordinary electric mosquito swatters and flower water could handle.
At that moment, the shock energy was mobilized from the meridians and blood veins to the palms, and with a rub of both hands, dozens of crackling pale golden arcs were immediately entwined between the ten fingers, and when a large group of giant mosquitoes pounced in front of the window, their hands suddenly discharged, and the criss-crossing arcs were woven into an electric mosquito swatter with a diameter of more than ten meters, and they slapped down fiercely.
For a while, the sound of "crackling, crackling" was endless, electric sparks bloomed like fireworks, and mutant giant mosquitoes swelled, burned, burst, fluttered one after another, and fell, leaving only curling green smoke and a strong pungent smell of burnt protein.
After a while, this group of mutated giant mosquitoes was wiped out by Chu Ge, and there was not half a wing left.
However, before Chu Ge could take a breath, not far away, from the countless cracks in the ground that had just been blown up, a large nightmarish swarm of mutant insects was drilled out again.
