Outside the city wall of Luling City, there is a large vacant land here, the original buildings here have been eroded by plants, and when the city wall was built, it was demolished by the construction team to obtain building materials and the plants were also eradicated.

This work has not stopped, and after a few times, the spreading plants seem to understand something, and they are no longer extending in this direction. Only a few weeds and shrub seeds occasionally float over and take root, and need to be cleaned from time to time.

500 meters outside the city wall, it has become a buffer zone between the world of human civilization and the natural world. As far away, Luling City is overwhelmed.

Outside the city gate, an asphalt road stretched out lonely from the dense woods, through the gate, leading to the city. This is the main road in the north of Luling City, leading to the county seat under its jurisdiction, and it is also the entrance to a highway.

Su Mo originally passed through this road, left his hometown, and entered Luling City.

Now the road is constantly spitting out cars, and a large number of cars are piled up in the open space within 500 meters, waiting to enter the city.

The procession into the city was divided into two groups, and the important vehicles carrying the production and living materials drove in first and stayed in the north bus station behind the city wall, while a large number of refugees gave up their vehicles one after another, carrying the only materials and queuing up to enter the city.

The staff of the Luling City Headquarters have rich experience, some time ago when the catastrophe began, there was a huge influx of people in the county below, and now the convoy is huge, but the number of people is actually small, they handle it in an orderly and orderly manner.

At the door, a middle-aged man was being examined and enthroned, and he was asked by the staff to strip and check for wounds and diseases on his body.

The man didn't want to, but just looked at the soldier with a gun at the door, and had no choice but to follow. After the inspection, it is time for the registration process.

"Name."

"Xie Minghui."

"Age."

"Forty-three."

"Occupation."

"Director of the Hongcheng Education Bureau."

Hearing this profession, the staff looked up, "Do you have any documents?" ”

"Nope." The other party reluctantly said, a series of inspections made him angry, and his face turned a little red.

"Oh." The registrar nodded, then bowed his head and quickly wrote, Director of Hongcheng Education (to be confirmed).

"To be confirmed?" When the middle-aged man saw it, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart anymore, "What needs to be confirmed, you suspect that I am a liar?" Isn't it just undocumented? I have worked for the party-state for more than 20 years, and this is the certificate. ”

The man's roar caused a chain reaction, as did in several other registration points, and several officials did not speak, but tacitly made trouble.

"Please don't disturb the order." The registrar looked at the chaos in front of him, didn't care at all, just said coldly. He has seen a lot of such officials, all of them are like this, they are embarrassed when they flee, they tremble in the face of all kinds of monsters, and once they are among the human beings, they will be arrogant and commanding.

Crash!

The sound of the bolt pulling was intense, and the vigilant warrior immediately aimed his gun at the muzzle of the gun and warned in his mouth, "Do not disturb the order." ”

"Okay, good, you ruthless." The middle-aged man looked at the muzzle of the black hole, his courage suddenly vented, and he took the sign and walked inside. The chaos subsided at once

"Please follow the number plate to the designated place to rest." The registrar added, then turned to look at the next one.

However, no one saw that in the shadows behind the vigilant soldiers, a figure took advantage of the temporary confusion and flashed out of the city.

The gathering of a large number of human beings, the strong breath of life kept wafting, and at once attracted a lot of hungry mutant creatures.

Unable to catch enough food deep in the forest, they wandered to the edge, where humans exposed to the vehicle were undoubtedly the most delicious temptations in their eyes.

In particular, the deepest instinct of the body tells it that it must eat humans, and that there are benefits to eating humans, and there are great benefits.

After many temptations, they could no longer bear it anymore and rushed out of the forest.

A slightly red, one-person-tall giant praying mantis took the lead in coming out of the crowd, and eight slender and powerful legs under its abdomen made him leap more than ten meters away, with wings spread out on its back, the membrane was delicate and tough, light and dexterous.

The wings didn't allow the giant mantis to fly, but they allowed it to glide low, and in a flutter, it flew over the edge of the forest more than thirty meters and pounced on a pot-bellied human man.

The sharp knife-shaped forelimbs of the praying mantis were held high, and the fiery red light covered the circulation, and the red light shone brightly, bringing bursts of burning sensation.

The person who can survive the escape will not be alert, and the man feels as if the air flow behind him is not right, and he wants to dodge as soon as he pounces.

His movements were right, but he still couldn't escape the fate of a tragic death, and the fiery red knife arm slashed, causing the whole person to split from the head and split into two parts. A burnt smell immediately came, and the body was scorched black where it was broken, and no blood was spurted out.

Out of the corner of his eye, the last thing he saw was a red mantis that was taller than him, the mantis was majestic, and its huge compound eyes showed a cruel and bloodthirsty light.

"Ahh

After leaving only a scream, the man died.

And after receiving his reminder, the people around looked over one after another, and screamed loudly! The crowd couldn't stop retreating.

The praying mantis doesn't care about anything else, the temptation of the depths of its body and its hungry stomach make it have no intention of chasing more prey, but lowers its head and keeps gnawing.

Whoop, whoa, whoa!

Blood splashed, pieces of flesh flew sideways, strands of flesh were constantly torn out by the praying mantis, and then swallowed, the man's body was shattered, and the terrifying and cruel scene made countless people vomit and faint.

"Help! There are monsters!" The people around him didn't care about anything else, and immediately shouted and ran towards the depths of the crowd themselves.

"Ahh

There was another scream, as if it had begun, and one after another screams rang out one after another, and they were all on the edge of the clearing, not far from the dense forest.

Fear is contagious, and the screams are repeated, causing the crowd to rush forward like crazy. The soldiers on guard saw that something was wrong and immediately fired a warning shot, but to no avail, no one stopped.

The soldier hesitated, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"Shoot and shoot!" A voice suddenly sounded, and when the soldiers saw it, it turned out to be the commander-in-chief Wang Guangming.

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the soldiers did not hesitate and immediately killed the fiercest person who ran at the front, who had lost his mind.

Bang bang bang!

After twenty or thirty people were shot in a row, the situation at the entire city gate was brought under control, the registration was revoked, and the crowd passed quickly and orderly.

Then, a battalion of elite soldiers was dispatched, and they went out through the small gate and went straight to the place of the incident. This is the most powerful team on Wang Guangming's hands, and it is also the foundation on which he relied to seize power. It's all good to eat and drink, and it's full of food, and even some meat from time to time.

Bang bang!

Several flares were knocked out in mid-air, and then a huge broadcast rang out.

"All residents, please stay calm, the Luling government has sent people to exterminate the monster, shout not to panic, don't panic, please enter the city in an orderly manner."

It's said to be there, but in fact, compared to the huge group of refugees, there are not many monster attacks, but the distribution range is relatively fast, making people think that these are happening around them, which causes panic and spreads from the second half to the first half.

This panic itself is just an emotional infection and catharsis, and when the soldiers wearing PLA signs appeared, people quickly calmed down and slowly lined up to enter the city.

Thanks to the propaganda of the previous era, people still have a natural trust in the military, especially the refugees in Hongcheng, who survived under the escort of the army.

The heavily armed soldiers quickly surrounded, and then the crisp combo of submachine guns rang out, clicking, clicking, and bullets pouring out.

The red mantis didn't know any firearms, it was very brave, with eight legs on its belly and wings on its back, and it rushed towards the soldiers like a fly.

The bullet hit his carapace, which could not break through the defense at all, and made a muffled thumping sound, and then the bullet deformed and fell. However, the huge impact of the bullet knocked the mantis to a smack, and the momentum slowed down.

The praying mantis was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, it rushed to the front row of soldiers, the knife arm was raised, the red light flashed, and several soldiers were immediately dismembered, and the smell of burnt paste spread.

"Ahh

The screams rang out, and the commander in the rear saw clearly that the enemy had rushed in front of him, and his face changed wildly, and he gritted his teeth and said loudly, "Use a grenade." ”

"Company commander, and his own people!" The soldier hesitated.

"Do you think there's anything else?"

The questioning soldier turned his head and was shocked, in just seven or eight seconds, a squad of soldiers was slaughtered.

All the soldiers did not hesitate to throw grenades.

Wow!

Several black, round objects were thrown under the mantis by the soldiers.

Rumble!

The flames were blazing, and shrapnel was flying.

However, when the fire cleared, the scene revealed was shocking.

The praying mantis did not die, although the carapace of the whole body was shattered, the wings were shattered, and the blood gushed out, but the general condition was intact, especially the knife-shaped forelimbs, the rich red light was more prosperous, and the knife that was dragged out was almost a meter.

The praying mantis was fierce, its knife arm was raised, its body moved, and it rushed forward again!

Yes!

A few more screams.

"40 fire!" The Commander roared.

The soldier carrying the bazooka did not hesitate at all, and regardless of whether there was a companion in front of him, with a whoosh, the bazooka was launched, and it hit the praying mantis not far ahead.

Bang!

An explosion louder than just before rang out, and the flames soared into the sky, and a violent surge of energy swept away, and the commander and the soldiers who fired were all swept away. The soldiers who were too close in the front row were directly engulfed by the explosion.

The losses can be described as extremely heavy, but fortunately, the praying mantis also died, although two squads of fighters were buried.

Finally dead!

After getting up, the commander, whose face was scorched and blackened, and even had a lot of blisters, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he really had no way to deal with it without dying.

Several of the monsters that attacked were almost the same, and when they were wiped out here, the other monsters in the open space were almost all killed, but the casualties were really large.

A company of soldiers died.

In fact, not only here, but even now because of the arrival at the destination, the slow-moving convoy has been attacked, and the monsters rush out from both sides, and the iron sheet of the sedan cannot resist it at all. It was destroyed in a few tears, and the whole scene was chaotic, and in the end, the commander-in-chief made up his mind to cover the attack with artillery to destroy those monsters.

As for the losses, it's too miserable not to mention them.

Beside the forest path, a few people were chased by monsters in a panic, and hurriedly ran into a sparse concrete path, hiding in a village that seemed to be intact.

And after the chasing monster approached the village, it hesitated a few times, his eyes flashed a few times, and he turned around and left.

If Su Mo was here, he must have been one of the fat people who was the billionaire who lived upstairs in Hongcheng and was saved by him during the great evacuation.

Next to the trailhead, a rusty, almost oxidized iron plate with only a shell remaining, the paint on it is peeling, and three big characters can be vaguely seen - Huajiang Village!
