Chapter 252: The Plague of Locusts (Part 1)
The eyes looked straight ahead, but there was a fog except for the growing sound.
The Bay Bridge stands above the sea, close to the middle area, and the sea is steaming so that the view of this area is extremely low.
However, the increasingly loud "puff" sound came into his ears from the air in the distance, making Lin Yi frown.
"What the hell is it that makes this noise."
This kind of strange sound, it can be said that Lin Yi has hardly encountered it, in his mind, some bird-like creatures kept appearing, but in the end, he completely denied it.
The strange sound didn't look like it could come from a single creature, rather, it was like the movement of a group of creatures.
"A group, a group of ......" Lin Yi muttered a few words, thinking of a group of creatures, a small figure suddenly flashed in his mind.
"Flying locusts!"
"It's a mutant locust!"
|“。。。 Lin Yi's face changed, and he scolded secretly, but the whole person retreated a distance of nearly 100 meters at a very fast speed, and then stopped, his brows furrowed.
Flying locusts, insects of the class Orthoptera locusts, are important crop pests, if we say a well-known name, grasshoppers.
If Lin Yi knows correctly, there are three sub-three species in China, namely the East Asian locust, the Asian locust and the Tibetan locust, represented by the most widely distributed and most harmful East Asian locust.
Flying locusts are omnivorous animals that eat almost anything, and as far as he knows, locust mutant beasts generally eat meat, and if they can't find meat, they will choose other types of food.
The mutant locust can be said to be the one of the mutant beasts that Lin Yi is most unwilling to face, except for being able to fly, so that Lin Yi, who is temporarily unable to fly, has no way to deal with the other party when they are not flying at low altitude.
On the other hand, Lin Yi was reluctant to face it because every time the mutated locusts appeared, they were swarms, and as soon as they appeared, there were tens of thousands of locusts.
Locusts cross the border, and not a single grass grows.
Ordinary locusts already have this terrifying name, not to mention the flying locusts that have become mutant beasts, almost as long as they are eaten, they will not leave a trace wherever they pass.
The sound of "puff puff" soon became louder and louder, and his gaze shuttled through the mist in front of him, and the group of flying locusts finally appeared in Lin Yi's field of vision.
The East Asian locust, the most attacking locust creature among the locusts.
Seeing the appearance of this group of flying locusts clearly, Lin Yi's face couldn't help twitching, the body length of the flying locusts before the end of the world, the body length of the adults, the male insect is 32.4~48.1 mm, the female insect is 38.6~52.8 mm, and the body color is often green or yellow-brown. And the group of mutant locusts in front of him, each of them has almost reached the size of a fist, and one of them is at the level of a leader, and the size has reached the size of two fists.
The color of their bodies is either dark green or dark yellow.
The chewing mouthparts are folded and glowing under the water mist, and the milling teeth on them can almost be seen clearly, densely packed, making people look frightened.
As soon as this group of flying locusts appeared, they walked towards the few zombies that Lin Yi had killed before.
There was a carnivorous existence, and the flying locusts rushed directly to the corpses of those zombies.
The East Asian flying locusts had just come into contact with these corpses, and in the blink of an eye, these zombies directly had no bones left.
Lin Yi changed color slightly, and his figure quickly moved to the side of the bridge, and then followed the steel cable on the side of the bridge and hoisted it under the bridge.
When he looked closely, there were other fixed steel cables under the bridge that he could hold onto.
Lin Yi was overjoyed with joy on his face, and directly crossed over, grabbed it with one hand, and held the blood-devouring sword tightly with the other, his face solemn.
Flying locust swarms, this kind of evolutionary existence that has not yet reached the second order or does not have the ability to attack in groups, is almost unstoppable.
Some evolutionaries, even with the ability to attack in groups, are unable to stop the locust plague.
When encountering a swarm of mutant flying locusts, Lin Yi would either retreat and flee directly, or he would only hide out of the sight of the locusts like this.
As for whether these flying locusts would find him, he couldn't care at all, he already had a hand in hiding the aura, plus the ability of the undead robe, these were only first-order flying locusts, and they couldn't be found at all.
Plop Plop Plop ......
As if hearing countless flying locusts passing above his head, Lin Yi's heart tightened slightly.
Fortunately, the swarm of flying locusts did not notice his presence, and after a while, the voice became farther and farther away, and became quieter and quieter.
"It didn't stop for a few seconds, it should be the reason why the zombies that I killed just now are still there."
Above him, the mutant swarm of locusts paused for a few seconds before flying off into the distance.
This kind of thing will happen, and there will be no other reason than to stop and eat food.
Lin Yi closed his eyes slightly, sensing the existence of the group of flying locusts.
"There was no sound, it looked like it had flown away."
Lin Yi stretched out his hand and grabbed the steel cable when he came down, when he used the blood-devouring sword to cut the steel cable, the steel rope drooped down, and he could use it to go up to the bridge deck.
Even though he had confirmed the distance of the mutant locust swarm, Lin Yi still confirmed it, and then jumped on the bridge with a strong jump.
Looking at the direction in which the mutant locust swarm was going, Lin Yi had a trace of doubt in his heart, the direction in which this group of mutants flew and went seemed to be coming from Lingshui.
Could it really be from Lingshui City?
Lin Yi couldn't help but guess that if this group of mutated locusts really came from Lingshui City, then Lingshui City was afraid that it had already been terrified by the locust transit.
However, the defense strength of Lingshui City is extremely strong, and this group of flying locusts looks terrifying, but it should not be able to "fly" in the middle and lower areas of Lingshui City.
There are many evolutionaries in Lingshui City, and it is also one of the very few cities that have formed a defensive capability not long after the beginning of the end times, although the locusts are strong, but they can't make big waves in the central area, and as for the surrounding area, I'm afraid it has been full of holes.
In his previous life, when Lin Yi arrived in Lingshui, almost everyone was cowering in the downtown area.
Call!
Without the threat of the mutant locust swarm, Lin Yi exhaled softly, then turned around and continued to move forward.
There was a swarm of mutant flying locusts before, and on the next journey, Lin Yi didn't even encounter zombie creatures.
However, the horror of the locust crossing still made Lin Yi sigh for a while, it was completely useless.
The sun was shining, and it was close to noon, and Lin Yi finally saw the lower bridge of the Bay Bridge.
The Bay Bridge, which is dozens of kilometers long, finally came to an end, and Lin Yi's always vigilant heart slowly relaxed.
Along the way, what he feared didn't happen.
In his previous life, when Lin Yi went to Lingshui City,. He didn't dare to cross the Bay Bridge at all, but followed the other survivors of Ningcheng and went to Lingshui City from other trails.
