Tsugawa City.

Ten miles away.

The golden sand dunes are everywhere, and the sand grains are constantly emitting a trace of heat to the surroundings, like smoke steaming.

In a low-lying area of the many dunes, there is a sparse bush jungle, and five or six fire ants are passing through it at the moment.

The fire ants were all one meter in size, not counting the pair of red tentacles on the top of their heads, which were half a meter long, with sharp beaks in the shape of inverted triangles, and a pair of sharp teeth that were bare and shining.

The fire ants were surrounded by a fiery red color, like a burning flame. There are as many as six pairs of antennae, lying in the bushes, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, as if foraging.

Since the moment the mega meteorite was smashed and landed 500 years ago, the world pattern has quietly changed, and it is no longer a situation where human beings are dominant.

Fish, insects, birds and beasts have mutated, grown in size, fierce and bloodthirsty, and moved quickly, and even pet cats and dogs have become extremely manic and no longer suitable for domestication.

They occupy most of the wild, the ocean and the sky, and even every once in a while, they gather together to attack the cities inhabited by humans, called beast tides.

As for the conflicts between ordinary people and human beings, there are countless ones. Every year, many people die in the mouths of insects and beasts, and countless insects and beasts are beheaded by human swords and guns.

Halfway up the sand dunes less than ten meters from the bushes, Ning Gang lay there quietly, except for his dark eyes and nostrils to breathe, his entire body was buried in the golden sand.

Ignoring the slightest stinging pain brought to the skin by the scorching sand, Ning Gang's eyes stared at a few fire ants not far away without blinking, and his right hand was holding a brown knife handle tightly, but the entire bright blade was already immersed in the sand dunes.

Ning Gang's eyes were full of coldness, and there was even a thick hatred hidden in them. At this moment, he had waited too long, too long.

Twelve years ago, when Ning Gang was a six-year-old child, two fire ants sneaked into Ning Gang's home from underground in the evening. Although the family fought hard, how could his father, who had only a dozen combat strength, be the opponent of fire ants.

Fortunately, the sound of fighting and scolding at that time attracted the attention of his neighbor Lin Minglei, and he, who had a combat strength of seventy, rushed directly into Ning Gang's house and killed the two fire ants.

However, in the end, Ning Gang's father's right leg was pierced by the sharp teeth of the fire ants, and his eight-year-old brother's eye was injured by the formic acid spewed by the fire ants, and he was permanently blind. If it weren't for my mother taking Ning Gang and my sister Ning Xin to play outside, I'm afraid the whole family would not be able to escape the poison.

Therefore, Ning Gang has worked harder than others since he was a child, because he knows that the fate of his whole family needs him to change.

"Wait, the combat power of the fire ants is between fifty and eighty, and they are not my opponents. But their agility is around 15, which is not much different from me, and they must wait for these six fire ants to only gather together before they can be wiped out, at least not as scattered as they are now. ”

In order to make people have a clear understanding of the difference between human and other creatures' combat effectiveness, the federal government specially organized manpower and material resources and compiled a "Combat Encyclopedia", which recorded the combat effectiveness of various fish, insects, birds and beasts, as well as their strength, agility, and so on.

Moreover, this "Encyclopedia of Combat Effectiveness" is still being improved, and new species information is added almost every day and the original information is modified in a timely manner.

"Okay, now is it!"

After about ten minutes, seeing that the six fire ants were not far away, Ning Gang moved, and his whole body suddenly shot out of the sand dunes like a cannonball, and the sword light in his right hand shone brightly, jumping directly towards the fire ants in front of him.

"Wow!" "Wow!"

The six fire ants also discovered Ning Gang's existence in an instant, and at the same time let out a piercing scream. A slightly larger fire ant jumped up and pounced towards Ning Gang in the air.

Ning Gang's eyes lit up, he didn't dodge or dodge, although this was the first time he faced fire ants, but the big gap in combat effectiveness still made him full of confidence.

The difference in combat effectiveness is generally only about ten to determine the outcome of a battle. If nothing else, it will be the one with the highest combat power who wins.

"Whew!"

As soon as the fire ant approached, two fiery red tentacles more than half a meter long swept out towards Ning Gang's waist, like a steel whip, bringing out gusts of wind.

Ning Gang held the battle knife in his hand, did not hurry, snorted coldly, raised the knife above his head, and then slashed down in the air against the fiery red tentacles.

"Ding!"

The two collided, and there was a unique golden sound of metal colliding, and Ning Gang unconsciously said, "It's so hard!" ”

Ning Gang did not use the martial art "Plum Blossom Sword Technique" at this moment, but chose to use his own strength to directly resist the fire ants, so that his combat strength at this time was only sixty-one, and did not reach the highest value of eighty-one.

Ning Gang didn't exert all his strength at once, and by doing so, he was showing weakness to the fire ants. If this fire ant is killed with a single sword, the other five on the ground will definitely scatter and flee. What Ning Gang wants is to catch them all.

But even so, this fire ant is not comfortable, its combat power is only 57, 4 different from Ning Gang, although the war knife did not directly cut off its tentacles, but it still cut out a wound, and blood continued to flow from it.

Moreover, the body of this fire ant also smashed heavily into the sand dune from the air, rolling out more than ten meters away.

"Wow!" "Wow!"

Seeing this, the other five fire ants let out an even more piercing scream, and almost at the same time, they jumped up and pounced on Ning Gang who had just landed on the ground from all directions.

At the same time, five green sour liquids erupted from the mouths of the five fire ants and shot directly into Ning Gang's face.

"Good time!"

Seeing this, Ning Gang shouted, took a big step forward with the knife in his right hand, and the second layer of the plum blossom knife technique was directly used, and the combat power instantly reached eighty-one.

With the swing of the knife light, two huge plum blossoms instantly bloomed in front of Ning Gang, one on the left and one on the right, protecting him completely. The green formic acid is blocked by the plum blossoms formed by the knife light, and it is impossible to move forward.

The plum blossom knife technique is intended to be as dense as the plum blossom. There are four layers in total, and each layer can produce one more plum blossom than the previous layer.

The first layer, one flower!

The second layer, two flowers!

The third layer, three flowers!

Fourth layer, four!

One plum blossom represents ten combat strengths.

The plum blossom knife technique is a basic martial art designed to train the speed of the person who wields the sword.

The knife must not only be fierce and domineering, but also fast. In the same situation, every extra swing you make means that you have a better chance of winning than others.

"Brute, it's my turn!"

Seeing all the formic acid fall to the ground, eroding a small hole in the sand dunes, accompanied by a sizzling sound, Ning Gang shouted again, holding the war knife in his hand, and slashed out at the five fire ants that were almost in front of him.

The light of the knife is dazzling, and the entire bright blade changes five times in the air in an instant, and there are several changes in each time, such as plum blossoms blooming, and the knife makes a ding-ding-bang sound.

When Ning Gang stopped and retracted, there were already five more headless fire ants at his feet, and scarlet blood was pouring out from between their necks, staining the pile of sand dunes red.

These six fire ants are not strong in their kind, and the highest combat power is still the fire ant that was split by Ning Gang more than ten meters away, only fifty-seven, which is as much as twenty-four different from Ning Gang's combat power.

The difference in combat effectiveness by ten can determine the victory or defeat. Twenty years high, that's a complete victory!

The fire ants more than ten meters away shook their heads, and as soon as they got up again, they saw that their companions had all died, and without hesitation, they fled frantically in the opposite direction.

"I want to escape!" Ning Gang sneered, "Five or six of you fled together, I can't help it, but only you, you are dead!" ”

Ning Gang's agility is 17, and this fire ant's agility is 16, and every time Ning Gang takes a step forward, the distance between him and this fire ant shortens by one point.

It didn't take long for Ning Gang to be less than two meters away from the fire ant. Ning Gang suddenly jumped into the air, and when he reached the top of the fire ant, the war knife swung and the sword light fell like a plum blossom, instantly splitting the fire ant in two from the middle and cutting it into two parts.

"Dad, brother, I finally did it!"

When everything was over, Ning Gang looked at the corpses of these fire ants around him and was stunned. He had waited too long for this day.

Since the family accident at the age of six, Ning Gang secretly decided in his heart that one day, he would kill the fire ants with his own hands to avenge his father and brother.

Although he knew at the time that the fire ants he would kill in the future could not be the two that hurt his father and brother, Ning Gang still regarded the fire ants as his goal and inspired himself to continue to practice hard.

Ning Gang understands that only by practicing hard, constantly improving his combat effectiveness, and becoming a strong man will he change everything in his family now.

The sun was scorching, and my father had to stand with one limp leg, sweating and forging iron by the stove.

The snow was blowing, and my mother had to brave the cold to go to her employer's house to clean and do housekeeping.

Ning Gang no longer remembers how long it has been since his sister, who studied art, has not added a new dress to herself. It's just that if it's dirty, wash it and wear it. Even if they are old and worn, she will change them and wear them again.

The reason why my parents and sisters did this was just to earn more and save some money to treat my brother's eyes.

Although my brother's eyes were diagnosed with permanent blindness, the doctors also said that the formic acid of that day did not completely necrosis the peripheral nerves in the eyes, and as long as the peripheral nerves can be kept stable, maybe one day, medical technology will move forward, or the legendary things can be obtained, and my brother still has hope of regaining his sight.

So for this slim hope, the whole family did not give up, and always used a valuable drug to ensure the stability of the nerve in my brother's eyes.

Even though my brother has repeatedly emphasized that he doesn't want to drag down his family and let his parents give up, his family is his family, and no one can replace him. At a fixed time, my parents would still buy medicine for my brother.

No matter how much suffering they endure, no matter how tired they are, their parents have no regrets.

Ning Gang tightened the war knife in his hand, he knew that all this was waiting for him to change!

Glancing at the corpse of the fire ant beside him, Ning Gang half-squatted, held the knife in his backhand, and completely peeled off the entire leather along the lost head of the fire ant.

By the end of the five, a thick smell of blood had spread. Even under the scorching sun, it is a little fishy.

Just as Ning Gang was about to make a move, about to peel off the skin of the fire ant that he had cut in half, he suddenly saw a wave of sand dunes not far away, and the ground was undulating like a wave, and it quickly stretched to his side.

"Not good!"

Seeing this, Ning Gang instantly felt a wave of shock all over his body, and without any hesitation, he dropped the last fire ant and quickly ran towards the other side.

Although Ning Gang didn't know what kind of insects and beasts were coming, he knew that outside Jinchuan City, there were only a few kinds of insects and beasts that could run underground, and the lowest combat effectiveness was more than a hundred, and it was definitely not something he could handle now.

This beast should have been attracted by bloody gas!

Sure enough, as soon as Ning Gang left less than five hundred meters away, a huge body that was three meters tall and seven or eight meters long suddenly broke out of the sand dunes and appeared at the corpses of five fire ants.

The back of this body is covered with a layer of jet-black carapace, which is abnormally hard, and the legs are even more green scales, and Zeze is shining.

As soon as he appeared, his dark eyes showed an excited light on the corpse of the fire ant in front of him, and as soon as he lowered his head and opened his mouth, he took a bloody fire ant in his mouth and chewed it up. It didn't take a few bites before swallowing it all into my stomach.
