Chapter 44: The Sea of Sorrow
"The ground beetle has a hard shell, a soft belly, a mouth like a sharp drill, is very good at burrowing into the ground, and likes to eat living animals and metals.
It is easy to be attracted by beetles and certain music, and is extremely threatening to ordinary people. ”
He Mu recalled in his mind the introduction of the ground beetle on the monster book, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.
Likes to eat metal and living creatures, so isn't this safe house in front of this group of ground beetles equivalent to a huge sandwich food?
But for ordinary people, there is no hiding here, and there is no other place to hide.
"Don't panic, it won't be long before a strong person will come to support, this safe house is so thick and strong, even a ground beetle has to gnaw on it for a long time. ”
Next to him, Dr. Zhang comforted.
As soon as he finished speaking, the car-sized ground beetle king jumped and clung to the heavy walls of the safe house.
Then there was a cacophony of sounds, and the outer layer of reinforced concrete on the wall began to splatter in all directions.
Other small ground beetles followed, their sharp beaks like awls striking the wall, making a thumping sound like a chisel striking the wall.
For a while, the walls of the safe house were full of ground beetles, and in just over ten seconds, the sound of chiseling became the sound of gold and iron.
This means that the ground beetle has destroyed the reinforced concrete layer on the outer layer of the safe house, coming into contact with the solid alloy layer.
He Mu calculated that it might only take a few minutes for the beetles to break into the safe house and carry out a massacre.
Listening to the strange sound of metal wearing, some sobs faintly sounded in the safe house, and some women subconsciously hugged their children tightly, then took out their mobile phones and began to contact some relatives outside.
The move soon became contagious, and many elderly people began to contact their children outside the home and tried to confess some last words.
However, the sound of the ground beetle breaking through the alloy layer was too high-pitched, and there were so many people gathered in the safe house that no matter what they said, the relatives on the other side of the phone could not hear it.
In the end, I had to cry silently to my relatives in the video, and then tap the screen to confess some words.
Even Dr. Zhang, who had been calm and calm next to him, took out his mobile phone.
Obviously, the words he comforted He Mu just now were just comfort, and after seeing the power of the ground beetle with his own eyes, he became pessimistic in his heart.
He Mu could see clearly, he connected the video, and on the screen, his wife and daughter were hiding in his safe room, and suddenly received a video from Dr. Zhang, and the women and children in the video were very happy.
But after seeing the text sent by Dr. Zhang, the woman's face turned pale in an instant, and her eyes were full of fear that the sky was about to fall.
Dr. Zhang was smiling and calm, and after typing out a text, the five or six-year-old girl in the video kissed the camera.
Looking at his daughter's cherry-like mouth, Dr. Zhang showed a satisfied smile, and then replied with a paragraph, explaining some things, ignoring his wife's shaking of the head and hanging up the video.
As soon as I hung up, the phone immediately lit up again.
Looking at the video request on the screen, Dr. Zhang's eyes turned red, and he finally shed tears.
After refusing ruthlessly, he looked at He Mu, no longer caring about any face, and said loudly while crying uncontrollably: "Little brother, I'm not afraid of you laughing, I'm afraid that I'll die too embarrassed! It's too ugly! I'm scared of my wife and children! And they've all pretended to be deep for a lifetime, how can I destroy my tall image in their hearts in the end!"
As he spoke, he took out a ring from his arms and put it on He Mu's hand.
"You are a Red Mist Warrior, after the earth beetle rushes in later, as long as you are not targeted by the insect king, you have a chance to escape!
He Mu looked at the ring in his hand, clenched it, then glanced at Doctor Zhang deeply and nodded heavily.
Inside the safe house, this kind of situation is playing out everywhere, and an extreme mood of sadness and despair spreads wildly.
Whether it's the people in the safe house or the people on the other side of the phone, they're all crying.
But no matter how much they cried, the sad voice could not suppress the sharp metal grinding sound, as if their fragile lives could not withstand the overthrow of fate.
He Mu, who was in it, only felt that he had become an island for a while, and fell into a sea of sadness.
As if thinking of something, He Mu took a deep breath and squeezed into the crowd and came to Grandma Wang.
Grandma Wang also held her mobile phone, but the number on her mobile phone could not be dialed.
Her youngest son, a front-line officer, was most likely directing the battle at the moment and did not receive a call from his mother.
He Mu leaned over to her and said loudly: "I'll take you to break through later!"
Grandma Wang was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then pointed to the little boy held by a woman not far away, and said in He Mu's ear: "That's the son of the second eldest of the Feng family on the top of the building, I watched his father grow up, and I also watched him grow up, very well-behaved and sensible, every time I see me, I will laugh, if you can, you can take him with you when you break through!"
I'm an old woman, it's not much use!"
He Mu's heart sank suddenly when he heard this, and he turned his head to look at Grandma Wang in front of him, whose eyes were full of complexity.
For society, for this world, everyone's value is different.
But for themselves, everyone is the most precious.
He had seen on the news some self-sacrificing people, and it seemed to him that they all had holy light in them.
Now such a person really appears in front of him.
Only then did he realize that these people who were truly willing to sacrifice themselves for others did not have the Holy Light, but were quite simple and ordinary.
If something hadn't happened, you might never have known he was like that.
It is precisely because of this kindness and simplicity that they don't have time to think too much, so that they will only see the world with the simplest thinking.
Others are in danger and need to be saved.
I'm old, I should save the young first.
He Mu gritted his teeth, Grandma Wang could see it, but he couldn't.
Because Grandma Wang is strictly the only elder he is close to in this world.
He is not a saint, he has relatives and distances in his heart.
Before he could make up his mind, two things were placed in his hands.
A large gold bracelet and a key.
"The big gold bracelet is still handed down by my grandmother! I am reluctant to give it to the insects, give it to my youngest son, let him give it to his daughter-in-law in the future, the key can open my cabinet, and there are 100,000 yuan in it, and donate it to the Nancheng Tengyun Fund!"
After taking these two things, He Mu's chest kept rising and falling, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.
At this moment, there was a sudden fierce gunfire outside.
Hearing the gunshots, He Mu immediately walked to the door and looked outside through the tiny air hole.
In the distance, in front of the gate of the military community, the team of soldiers guarding the military community rushed out of the fortress-like communication room and fired at the ground beetles in the safe house with their rifles.
However, the ground beetle is so hard that bullets cannot penetrate it at all.
Even the shells of the ground beetles with less than ten combat power can resist bullets.
The officer's face flushed, and he held a light machine gun in his hand and roared as he approached the safe house while firing wildly.
A few ground beetles were shot in the abdomen and killed instantly, but only a few died.
It didn't take long for the bullets to run out and the gunfire to stop.
Followed by......
Rumble!
There was a muffled sound, and a large chunk suddenly bulged from the wall of the safe house.
Then, dense dots appeared on the raised wall with a sharp intersonance.
At this moment, the safe house is on the verge of collapse, and it is only one final blow away.
