It's dark, and night is approaching.

The snowflakes in the air gradually stopped, but the wind still howled by.

On the ruined streets, the snow buried the wreckage and other debris that could have been seen everywhere.

A small, strange purple flower swayed and spread its petals from the snow.

The bright pollen is so conspicuous in the dim night.

Before the wind could spread its offspring across the cold city, a fist-sized firefly flapped its wings and buzzed quickly.

The metallic arthropods glide over the hard petals, leaving trails.

The round, green compound eyes of the firefly scanned the stamens.

Soon, it found its purpose.

A touch of fluorescence in the stamens.

Eager to bring food to the Queen, it was rewarded with a razor-sharp jaw that snapped the stamens with a click.

Then, a thin tongue sticks out of her jaw, wraps around the magical stamen, and begins to lick it repeatedly.

It didn't take long for all the fluorescence to enter the firefly's fat hairball-like body.

After harvesting, the fireflies flapped their wings in satisfaction, and then prepared to move away from this place to the next location to continue harvesting.

Perhaps the harvest was so satisfying that it even fanned its trembling wings harder.

Everywhere it passed, the sparse and muted snowflakes were smoothly cut by its sharp wings.

Fireflies are the most common demon species that can be found after the end of the world.

These little ones covered in yellowish fluff are active all over the world.

With a round green compound eye, he scanned the passers-by.

The entire body of the firefly looks like a ball, with two pairs of wings hanging behind it, and two normal insect antennae on the top of its head.

The most obvious physical feature of fireflies is also in their tails.

The firefly bee's tail is flat and long, curling out like a paper ribbon from underneath its body, supporting its fat hairball-like body.

Although fireflies do not die like normal bees after attacking, their lethal attack method, the tip of their tail, can even grow again in a very short period of time after attrition.

However, fireflies generally do not show aggression, and their only preference is harvesting.

Harvest the magic on those cute stamens, or other magical gadgets.

Sometimes, their tails can carry large amounts of pollen and absorb the magic in them.

They will be transformed into a new substance, which alchemists call "firefly bee pink".

Firefly bee powder is a powdered product of pure magic crystals mixed with firefly secretions, emitting a faint yellow light in the dark.

At this moment, under the cover of night.

This firefly is as eye-catching as a large firefly.

This attention is a good thing for Qi Rin, as it can be used to track it to obtain the location of its lair.

And then catch them all.

But for the skeleton task force lying in the window on the third floor in a nearby building.

It's a bad thing.

Even though the captain and the deputy have the latest results of the research institute, the demon seed camouflage cloth covers the whole body.

Even if they strictly follow the code and do not move.

But it was still discovered by this little guy.

To be precise, they found the special potion of the research institute carried by the two of them around their waists, which contained the magic needed by the queen bee.

The firefly was about to fly away when the tentacles on its forehead turned slightly to the floor where the two of them were.

The inciting wings paused suddenly, and then the fireflies rushed towards the third-floor window like sharks smelling blood!

With the consumption of the mana stored in the tail, its speed is as fast as an arrow off the string!

The firefly soon rushed to the burglar-proof window outside the window, and its speed continued to increase, but it sped up its magic.

With the glow of its tail, the harmless-looking little creature flew straight in with its wings flapped!

The seemingly sturdy security window did nothing to prevent bad actors.

With the sound of metal hissing, the burglar-proof window fell and smashed into the snow downstairs.

And the captain in the house found that the firefly bee went straight to the deputy's waist, and he suddenly kicked the deputy's hand!

The dignified waist quickly twisted with force, and his right hand synchronously touched the military thorn on his waist, and then swung fiercely at the firefly that rushed for some reason!

Boom!

The stinger fused with the new material is stabbed into the oncoming firefly bee!

Metal sparks instantly lit up in the dark room, and they also responded to the fact that they quickly got up, their faces were flustered, but they still subconsciously felt for the military stinger, and then rushed towards the deputy of the firefly.

"We are no match for it! Walk! ”

The captain looked at the firefly that was unharmed in the buzzing and roared, then grabbed the information book on the ground, and jumped out of the window with his desperate deputy!

Boom!

The captain was the first to smash down on the burglar-proof window, and then with one hand he dragged the deputy who jumped off next.

"Captain! Our camouflage cloth and televisibility." The deputy, who was pulled by the captain's arm and ran away, shouted anxiously.

Those things are the brainchild of the research institute, but they have not yet been mass-produced, and they can only be distributed in small quantities to be used on the cutting edge.

"I'll pick it up later!"

The captain didn't look back, he frantically pulled his deputy and ran.

In the brief encounter just now, the highly trained captain learned through the force of the shock that the bee was no match for them.

If you stay to fight to the death, it must be the result of the death of the two.

Therefore, the captain did not hesitate to abandon those valuables, but just grabbed the more valuable information book, took the deputy and ran.

However, the captain underestimated the speed of the fireflies.

Even if they have opened the speed skills prepared for them by the military, they are still not comparable to these bronze-level flying demon species.

This little guy doesn't just have a lot of physical defense.

It also has a blazing fast flight speed and a short burst of mana amplification!

Feel the buzz behind you getting closer.

The captain knew that he couldn't run, so he let go of his deputy's arm and kicked on the street lamp next to him.

Boom!

With the help of this kick, the captain's body quickly reversed in the air, and the military thorn in his hand poked at the firefly bee that was waving its wings and preparing to slash the backs of the two!

Boom!

When the stinger came into contact with the head of the firefly, a large number of sparks were sputtered again.

The captain watched the firefly fall to the ground, shaking his head and flapping his wings to take off again.

The captain, who knew that he couldn't defend himself with the military alone, grabbed his deputy again and ran.

From the time he came into contact with the fireflies to the present, all the choices of the captain have been successful and have paid off.

If you only know how to run, you will definitely have your head cut off by the iron wings of this little guy.

But after each of the captain's counterattacks, he would take advantage of the empty period when the fireflies were dizzy and quickly fled.

This choice cannot be called a mistake.

This is the best option for the captain.

But suddenly, he overlooked a fatal problem.

Fireflies are bees.

Bees, on the other hand, have tail needles.

As soon as the dizzy firefly took off, he saw the two people carrying the magic element in front of them about to rush into a nearby alley.

Stunned twice, it shook its fat tail.

In between, the yellow magic flowed on it, and the sharp and thin tail needle slowly emerged from its tail.

Then the firefly flicked its tail suddenly, and the tail needle, which was driven by the magic power, was as fast as an eye, and suddenly poked at the captain's back in silence!

The captain was running and felt as if something was passing through his body.

As he strode to his feet, a sharp pain came from his abdomen.

Boom!

The captain fell to the ground heavily, and his otherwise solemn face was now full of pain.

But his left hand holding the intelligence book still subconsciously guarded the book tightly.

"Captain!"

The deputy, who had already rushed to the alley, saw the captain fall to the ground, and hurriedly turned around and rushed over, holding the captain's arm and rushing into the alley again.

The captain, who felt that his steps were getting heavier and heavier, was supported by his deputy to escape, and one hand quickly tore off the cotton suit on his body.

Looking down, a dark blue blood hole was impressive!

Next to the blood cave, there was also a faint yellow light.

This is the toxic secretion of fireflies, which not only contains severe pain, but also causes the injured person to suffer immensely all the time.

And that yellow light will spread throughout the body with the toxic secretions, and become more dazzling by absorbing the basic qualities of the human body.

And this secretion will also attract a large number of fireflies around the area to attack in a frenzied retaliatory manner.

Normally, no one would want to provoke a swarm of fireflies in the wild, except that they didn't want to affect the development of the magic industry.

No one wants to be a big, glowing ball.

This is especially true for the dangerously large glowing balls.

The captain, of course, did not know this information.

But he knew one thing.

The attacks of these demon seeds are extremely strange.

This yellow light may be used for positioning.

The painstaking information must be brought back!

The captain glanced at the real-time constitution attribute that was falling wildly on the panel, and there was a hint of determination in his eyes.

He quickly stuffed the information book that he had not had time to put into his inner pocket and hold in his left hand to the deputy.

"Take it!" The captain began to appear a dark blue face, looking a little ugly.

He looked at the deputy, who was a little dazed, and stuffed the information book into the pocket of the deputy's clothes.

"Even if you die, you have to send this book to the military department!"

After the captain finished speaking, he pushed his deputy forward, and then turned around and took out the antidote from his waist with his right hand and poured it down.

In his left hand, he took out the stimulant, flicked the metal socket with his thumb, and then pricked it on his neck, which was already black.

Immediately, another shot of the research institute collected the demon seed biological materials, and the special stimulant pierced the heart.

The potion was quickly pushed in, and the captain's eyes were fixed on the firefly bee that was swinging its fat tail in place to promote the growth of tail needles.

"Captain! Before you came, you said you would take me back with you."

With an angry face, the deputy stuffed the information book into the pocket of his clothes, and then took a stimulant shot, clenched the military spur and chased after the captain.

The latter looked at his comrades who wanted to fight side by side, and his eyes showed a hint of relief.

But soon, the captain said fiercely: "Escort the book back to the military headquarters!" ”

The deputy "I" did not finish speaking.

I saw that the captain had already removed the last bottle of potion from his waist.

Explosive agents.

The Demonic Seed Research Institute is currently the pinnacle of the field of pharmacy.

It can strengthen the user's complex attributes by 50% in ten minutes, and there will be a certain attenuation according to the user's level.

Such a powerful potion was not burst from the demon seed.

It is the crystallization of human ingenuity.

Unfortunately, the side effects are also enormous.

After an hour, the user will die like a corpse beast.

But normally, once it is time to use this potion, it basically does not last for an hour

"Sergeant Ho's family!" Seeing that the firefly bee tail needle was about to be promoted, the captain raised the explosive potion that he had drunk and fell to the ground suddenly.

There was a snap and the bottle shattered.

"It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders!" The captain yelled at his deputy: "I order you to immediately escort the intelligence back to the military headquarters to report!" ”

The squeaking of the deputy's hand holding the stinger, he was reluctant to abandon the captain and return alone, but when he saw the empty bottle of explosive potion on the ground, which had been drunk.

He knew it was useless to say anything.

The deputy, with his legs together and tears in his eyes, gave a silent military salute, then turned and ran deeper into the alley.

The captain smiled at the young man's back, and then rushed to an abandoned vehicle on the side of the road.

Looking around, the military thorn in his hand slashed across the junction between the door and the body.

"Since the army can't pierce the defense, then I'll be stunned!"

The military thorn can't break through the defense of the firefly, but for these vehicles, it can still be easily broken.

At this moment, the fireflies have already given birth to a new tail needle.

The yellow light of the tail that was about to run out of magic was greatly reduced.

But even so, the captain who rushed towards the car door shot out of his round compound eyes, and he wiped his compound eyes with his forehead tentacles in a boring way, as if mocking the powerlessness of small human beings.

With a flick of the firefly's tail, the second tail pin shot at the roaring captain again.

The latter saw the Hotaru bee's movements and subconsciously raised the door of the car that was ready to act as a blunt weapon to block it.

With a bang, a tiny red-glowing hole appeared in the door.

It fell to the ground with a slam on the door.

The captain slowly fell to the ground with his bloody palms clutching his neck.

The captain, who fell to the ground on his side, looked at the fireflies flying slowly in front of him, and his palms, which were already covered with dark blue, wanted to raise and counterattack.

But just as he lifted it, his limp and powerless arm fell heavily into the snow.

In the tiny hole in the palm of his hand that was pierced by the tail needle, blood could not stop flowing onto the snow-white snow.

Even though the captain was blessed with an instant burst potion, under the firefly bee toxin, the constitution attribute on his panel had dropped to 0.3.

And it's still declining.

The captain smiled bitterly as he looked at the approaching fireflies.

He muttered in a faint voice, "This damn world."

"Mom me."

Whoa!

Fireflies' steely arthropods slashed across the captain's head.

Yellow and white things and blood were drenched in the white snow all around.

Captain Huaizhuang, on the ninth day of the catastrophe.

Fall.

Inside the alley.

The doping deputy sprinted like crazy towards the southeast.

The snow that covered the calves was full of obstacles.

But the deputy didn't care, just blindly ran desperately towards the southeast.

He clutched the captain's order in his hand.

That notebook.

Boom!

A corpse in the snow that had been gnawed into a skeleton suddenly tripped over the deputy.

The latter quickly got up, felt the position of the inner pocket on his chest, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to run.

I don't know how long I ran, maybe ten minutes,

Maybe twenty minutes.

It wasn't until the sweaty deputy came to the boundary line that the ghost Lao Liu had cleared before, that he hid next to the dark garbage can on the side of the road, stopped and gasped for breath.

After adjusting slightly, the deputy pursed his lips and prepared to continue running.

At this moment, a cry for help came from afar: "Huh! That guy! Can you help? ”

"My leg got stuck in this damn car!"

The deputy who heard the sound looked up and was about to follow the sound to step forward, but stopped vigilantly.

He touched the notebook on his chest.

remembered what the captain had said to him: "Soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, do their own things, and the rest, the above has their own considerations, it is not your turn to worry about me, if we only care about personal will and act against orders, then this world will only be worse." ”

"Huh! Did that guy go with the captain before? We've met it before! Your captain gave me a compressed biscuit!" ”

The deputy listened to the familiar voice, as if remembering that the person who called for help was a familiar person.

The two had previously met a man wearing a cap.

He survived alone, and later met the captains.

The captain gave him a compressed biscuit and told him that there was a safe zone to the southeast where he could take refuge.

The man in the cap was sincere, honest, and spoke with a picture of admiration and gratitude for the army.

There is no other survivor of the kind: why not save us? We were blind enough to provide for you soldiers!

The man in the cap was full of words: The catastrophe came suddenly, and I can understand that the army was also caught off guard, so it is natural to resume production as soon as possible, and people in various important industries will be rescued.

Thinking of this, the deputy's vigilance dissipated a little, and he followed the sound with his steps.

In the snow on the side of the road, the man in the peaked cap was pale and sweating.

Its right foot is stuck in two twisted vehicles that are twisted into an unknown corpse beast or something.

Seeing this, the vigilance in the deputy's heart gradually relaxed.

He stepped forward quickly, swinging his thorn and slicing the vehicle open to help the man in the cap get out of trouble.

At this time, the latter saw the sharp thorns that were as sharp as clay, and his eyes showed envy.

"It's great, I thought that those monsters were stronger than us, what can we humans do."

"Now it seems that the wisdom of our human beings is still infinite!"

"The military is right to take the lead in rescuing high-value scientific talent, which can reduce a lot of casualties."

All kinds of words that don't want money are spit out of the mouth of the cap.

The young deputy smiled shyly: "Thank you for your understanding." ”

As the vehicle was cut, the man in the cap finally got out of trouble.

Heavy bruises were visible from the torn cotton pants on his legs.

"Looks like I've been trapped for a short time." The deputy thought in his heart.

"Thank you so much!"

"If I hadn't had your compressed biscuits, I guess I'd starve to death!"

"I'm not afraid of your jokes, I really don't have the courage and courage to fight those corpse beasts face-to-face."

The man in the cap thanked the deputy, and then, without waiting for the deputy to speak, asked, "Why don't you see the captain?" Aren't you two together? Are you going to the military security zone? Can you take me with you? ”

"Don't worry, although I don't have the courage to go out and fight with corpse beasts, I am a good farmer, and I will never eat in vain!"
