Ninety-six Arson
Many refugees were bitten to death at once, most of them cried and shouted for their mothers to run around, and only a few dared to resist desperately with kitchen knives and iron rods. The soldiers launched a fierce counterattack as early as when the mutant ants appeared, but the ants' vitality was really tenacious, and they were still alive after being shot several times, and they bit people when they saw them. The soldiers fought for a long time, and the mutant ants did not die a few, and there were not as many as the refugees who cut with knives.
Some mutant ants dragged the people who had been bitten to death before and left, all of them dragged to the north of the city, where it seemed to be their nest.
For a while, the scene was bloody and chaotic, the situation was almost one-sided, the ants firmly gained the upper hand, and what was more dangerous was that there were more ants coming from all directions, gradually surrounding the crowd and draining the water, looking at the scene as if they wanted to catch turtles in the urn.
Surrounded by mutant ants, ants piled with ants, the number of deaths of soldiers and refugees continues to rise, no one can run out if this continues, the officer ran out of pistol bullets, gritted his teeth and looked at the chaotic battlefield, his eyes were red: "Blow up a gap with a grenade!
After the end of the world, the combat soldiers rarely use grenades, one is that the soldier grenades are limited, not like bullets can be supplied indefinitely, and the other is that the zombie weakness is more obvious, as long as one shot hits the brain, it can be solved. Therefore, the grenades of these soldiers were basically not moved, and even if the material was tight, each soldier was equipped with at least two.
The soldiers were a little hesitant when they heard the commander's order, but looking at the mutant ants piled together in the circle around the periphery, the refugees who were bitten like blood gourds, they also knew that it was impossible to do it without hurting the refugees at this time, so they could only be heartbroken, give up less to save more, and one by one the grenades were thrown into the mutant ant colony, and a few seconds later, a deafening explosion sounded in the ant colony, directly blowing up a qiē within a radius of ten meters, which of course also included the people who had no time to escape and the mutant ants piled together.
Grenades exploded in many places, and for a time the stumps of insects, the severed arms of humans flew everywhere, and the blue and white blood mist flew all over the sky. That's not all, many explosions emitted dense white smoke, and some insects that were relatively close to the explosion point burned directly, so that the ants were really blown back more than ten meters, giving the living people a chance to breathe.
The ants who arrived later seemed to be very resistant to the burning fire and the white smoke coming out, and the antennae on their heads were moving, but they were not trying to get closer to the crowd, the bigger the smoke, the farther away the ants were, and then they simply walked farther and farther, lingering more than ten meters outside the flames, and some of the ants simply turned around, as if they were lost.
"They are afraid of fire and smoke, let's make the fire bigger, they will definitely not dare to come up again. Li Ting saw the ants like this, and her brain suddenly moved, remembering that the science and education channel didn't say that ants rely on smell to transmit information to each other, or to find prey, so now that the smoke is so big, can it block the chance of ants finding them?
Thinking about it like this, Li Ting strengthened her point of view, and immediately called Shangshan Dayu and a few people rushed to the flames, and threw the stump of the mutant ant into the fire to burn, the mutant ant had just died, and the body was still damp, so thrown directly into the fire, it was even more black smoke billowing outward, mixed with the strange smell of barbecue wafting everywhere, and the mutant ants standing on the periphery retreated directly as if they had been smoked and fried, and retreated straight to a place where they could not touch the taste, and then they circled around everyone randomly.
Obviously, the ants want to eat human flesh, but they are afraid of fire and smoke, and they are twisting and turning.
At first, the soldiers were very puzzled by the actions of Li Ting and the others, feeling that they were purely adding to the chaos, but seeing that the smoke really had a miraculous effect on the mutant ants, they quickly organized the refugees to go up together to help, and the soldiers also put away the remaining grenades, rushed up and desperately collected the fragments of the ants' corpses, and threw them into the fires burning in all directions.
Suddenly, in the area where the refugee soldiers were, thick smoke rose and spread rapidly in the breeze to the surroundings, and the mutant ants all ran back as if they had smelled a powerful insecticide, and stopped farther away to confront everyone. In fact, the human beings who tried to set the fire did not feel much better, the billowing smoke covered the sky and the sun, and it shrouded the refugees, people stayed in it for a long time, their eyes could not stop the brush and brush down, the nose was quickly stimulated to a little numb, the choked people coughed vigorously one by one, and the sensitive people seemed to cough out their lungs.
"It's so choking!cough~!How do I think, even if it wasn't for the mutant ants to gnaw us to death for a while, we would have to be smoked directly into bacon jerky, cough~!" Shan Dayu is fat and thick, when the ants besieged just now, the ants showed their sincere love for Shan Dayu, at this time his arms and thighs were clamped out by the ants A bunch of holes, and some places were not clamped through, but they were also bruised, and now they are roasted by the fire, and the wound killed by the smoke and sweat hurts, as if the sentence is pouring salt water, the painful Shan Dayu grinned, and spoke with a hissing pump.
Looking at Sun Bin and Li Ting, although they were all lighter than Shan Dayu's injuries, they were not easy to go, large and small openings were all over the body, and Li Ting felt that she was in pain. Only Kuroko's martial arts are more superb, and he is considered to be the least injured of the four.
"Ahem~!I'm afraid it won't be beef jerky, ahem~!We have to die of lack of oxygen first, the density of smoke here is too high, and it is estimated that there is also a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning." Li Ting is not feeling well now, not to mention the pain all over her body, while busy burning the fire, she has to observe the reaction of the mutant ants in the distance, her throat and lungs are even more hot and uncomfortable, some time ago when she was under the giant tree, the injury to the trachea and lung lobes was just right, and this is another smoke stimulus, Li Ting feels that after coming so many times, it is not surprising that she has asthma.
Fortunately, these ants are very good, they hide when they smell a cigarette, or they fight again after a while, and it is estimated that the four of them will not be able to withstand it even if they are strong.
Shan Dayu came over with the ant stump and said to a few people: "Ahem~!What should we do now, let's keep burning the fire like this~!It's not a way, such a large amount, when the ant corpse is always used up, ahem~! When it's all burned, don't we have to be besieged?"
Sun Bin was busy burning the fire, but he was not very worried about this, and said to Shan Dayu: "What are you afraid of, cough~!As long as you know that these mutant ants are afraid of fireworks, if there is nothing to burn, isn't there still one over there." After saying that, he raised his head and pointed his chin at the soldier who was also burning the fire.
"Burn them?cough~!People probably don't smoke so much, it's interesting to say that these soldiers are also quite interesting~!, if we burn them, it will be so unkind. Shan Dayu grinned with a look of disapproval.
Sun Bin shook his head and said: "Do you want to cough cough~!, where did you go, I mean when there is nothing to burn, you can ask them to use grenades to blow up mutant ants at the point, as long as they support until dawn, and wait until the ants retreat, can't we swagger out? cough cough~!"
Shan Dayu nodded and said, "This idea is really reliable, cough~! Fortunately, Li Ting discovered that ants are afraid of fireworks, otherwise I really have to cough cough today~! After a while, I have to go to the soldiers' side to set up a set, or modern equipment is good, cough cough~! If you can't beat it, you can throw a grenade, which is much more magnificent than us holding an axe and a knife. After saying that, he stared at the busy soldier with envy and greed, and the soldier who was looking directly noticed it, and glared at Shan Dayu several times as if he was perverted, and Shan Dayu barely retracted his fiery gaze.
Sun Bin kept moving his hands and said: "But Li Ting's words just now are to the point, cough cough~! Burning a large amount of things will reduce the oxygen concentration here of us, and after things are burned, a large amount of toxic gases will be produced, cough cough~! People who inhale these gases for a long time are likely to be in a severe coma." Sometimes in the event of a fire, many people die before they are burned, because they inhale too many harmful gases and do not have enough oxygen concentration. ”
Shan Dayu blinked and asked, "What should I do then?" cough~!"
Li Ting interjected: "What else can I do, use the trick we used to save you under the giant tree, and cover your nose with a wet cloth." Ahem~ This is common sense. After speaking, Li Ting walked directly to a corpse on the ground, said offended to the corpse, and then directly ripped off the corpse's cotton clothes, cut it into four pieces of cloth with a scimitar, and finally wet it with water and distributed it to everyone.
A few people covered their mouths and noses, feeling that the pungent smell of smoke was much less, and they were not so uncomfortable and wanted to cough.
Thanks to the joint efforts of the refugees and soldiers, the smoke kept billowing out, and later on, people gradually got used to the ants surrounding outside, and the fire was not as panicked as it was at the beginning, and everything they picked up was thrown inside, and finally the flames were extinguished.
Tonight was destined to be a long night, and although the ants were not advancing, they did not want to leave just like that, so they surrounded the fireworks for a whole night. That night, everyone did not dare to sleep, and they crowded into a small place and burned the fire until dawn. When the first rays of sunlight after dawn hit the earth, the mutant ants retreated unwillingly, coming and going like a tide.
After a long night of smoky fire, seeing that the mutant ants finally retreated, the surviving refugee soldiers let out earth-shattering cheers, and even those who once thought they were dead hugged and cried. After cheering, he was at a loss, this time the mutant ants attacked, less than half of the 1,7800 people who retreated, and everyone was injured, and a few people were already dying, lying on the ground with a high fever, and some people were about to be bitten off their hands and feet, and it is estimated that even if they are good, they will be crippled.
