Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse-Chapter 410: Reinforcements Have Arrived
Chapter 410: Chapter 410: Reinforcements Have Arrived
"Here he comes, Zhang Tiezhu is here~"
"Rooooar~"
The people below began to cheer. Zhang Tiezhu was now a triumphant hero, not only had he brought back gasoline, but he had also brought reinforcements.
Hearing the noise below, he even whistled for a while as a response.
The atmosphere suddenly changed. Looking at those insects, they had begun to cover the area.
The blankets had already burned out, and some were even crawling to the side.
If they came up, it would be dangerous for them.
"Make way~"
Zhang Tiezhu shouted, and immediately below, everyone scattered like birds and beasts.
Two helicopters began to buzz busily, sprinkling continuously.
Another one stopped at a village across the way.
"Everyone go over there and help move things."
There was no need to say it, but it was definitely gasoline.
"Strange, what are they sprinkling?"
"It’s ignition accelerants and phosphorus powder~"
Jiang Yuan patiently helped Ye Mianmian with her question and he himself sighed in relief.
Zhang Tiezhu had not only brought gasoline but also other things.
This time, they were truly saved.
Now, those who had gone to fetch the items also returned.
Indeed, it was all gasoline, and there was quite a lot of it.
Song Yi called to others to start moving as well.
Once the spraying over there had finished, according to the original positions, everyone started to get busy.
At the same time, about twenty young men also ran over.
Each one of them carried firewood on their backs, gasping for breath.
"Professor Jiang, we have come to support."
"That’s great, you’ve come just in time."
With the firewood, gasoline, and accelerants,
these insects, no matter how tough, couldn’t make any more waves.
The moment the first batch was thrown down, it dealt a fatal blow to these little creatures.
Sizzling and crackling noises rang intermittently.
Immediately, waves of stench spread.
This was the unique smell emitted by the insects after they exploded.
Jhiang Yuan quickly tightened her mask. They were in a forward position, still wary of any that might escape, naturally, they couldn’t be careless.
Simultaneously, protecting oneself was also extremely important.
Song Yi glanced over and saw that her defensive awareness was strong, which pleased him.
The first wave of insects had been eliminated, and the ones below would soon climb up.
They worked busily, and it took six batches to completely end the ordeal.
The time had also taken three hours, plus the previous, it was now nine o’clock in the evening.
The temperature was very low, the fire soared high, and at the same time, the stench spread wide.
They brought a wireless radio over, and firewood continued to be delivered steadily.
"Brother Song, Professor Jiang, that should be enough, right? We can’t see them anymore.
Our gasoline and accelerants are all gone, what are the next steps?"
Clearly, the guard captain regarded them as the leaders.
Jiang Yuan looked at Song Yi, who also felt uncertain himself.
"Let some people go back first, the rest will wait until it’s over here."
"Alright~"
Having received the order, it was time to work.
Jhiang Yuan looked down; the fire was still burning, just the last of it, the bottom glowing red.
Aside from the corpses of the exploded insects, there were also embers.
"Be careful..."
Song Yi came over and pulled her back, fearing she might fall.
"It’s all right, I’m just looking."
"No wonder Second Master Teng said this place was a deep ditch, it’s really deep indeed."
"Yes, it was unexpected, in the end, the insects used it as a nest."
Looking now, it was still about twenty to thirty meters deep.
Before, she had thought the villagers were making a big fuss over nothing.
Once a single-log bridge was set up on both sides, they could cross over.
Now it seemed, not developing the area was indeed the correct decision.
If someone really fell down, it would be a disaster, with very little chance of survival.
Not to mention, jumping from a building as high as ten stories, how could anyone possibly be unscathed?
Besides, it wasn’t easy to rescue someone from here.
Song Yi suddenly looked at her leisurely, his face full of smiles.
"Jhiang Yuan, what did you just do?"
She turned around and saw the man’s face, tough yet gentle.
"What did I do just now?"
"You were very worried about me, weren’t you?"
Well, it was an emergency, and she was indeed agitated.
"It’s quite normal, you were about to die."
Jhiang Yuan stiffened her neck, speaking logically and convincingly.
Song Yi chuckled softly, his whole body radiating a joyous aura.
"I don’t believe it, you definitely wouldn’t bear to see me die~"
Saying this, he stepped forward as if he wanted to whisper something.
Jiang Yuan walked over quickly with an urgent look.
"Song Yi, that’s enough now, let Yuanyuan go back with us, it’s too cold."
How annoying, his good moment disrupted, Song Yi shot him a sharp glance.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Nothing, nothing, since it’s like this, then I’ll go back."
"Yes, Zhang Tiezhu has gone to start the plane, you guys should go back with him."
This "you guys" referred to her, Ye Mianmian, and a few other idlers.
"By the way, Yuanyuan, where did you find so many blankets just now?"
He had wanted to ask earlier but never got the chance.
"It was by the big tree..."
Jhiang Yuan said, pointing with her hand.
"There were blankets there? How did we not find them when we came before?"
Jiang Yuan was somewhat skeptical, he really hadn’t seen them.
Besides, Jhiang Yuan had brought out so many at once.
"They were right up there, we all saw them.
Last time so many of you came and didn’t find them?"
Jhiang Yuan looked incredulous, as if he was making some huge joke.
It was difficult to respond at that moment.
"Alright, you better hurry back, Professor Jiang probably didn’t wear his glasses last time."
Song Yi joked, but his words affirmed that the items were indeed brought from that side.
Jhiang Yuan looked puzzled at Jiang Yuan, said nothing, and walked down with Ye Mianmian.
"We really didn’t see them~"
He still argued, unconvinced. Song Yi sighed, shook his head, and patted his shoulder.
Then, he also went down.
There were six people returning this time, including Comrade Zhang Tiezhu.
Most of them would walk back shortly.
"By the way, Song Yi, that tree itself is not ordinary.
Better make plans early, don’t leave it to the last minute."
"Alright, let’s go back and rest now!"
"Okay!"
Jhiang Yuan had reminded him, tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
This area would definitely be guarded by the institute’s people, except for these few trees.
The lake on top, Half Moon Lake, was the scariest part.
Now, with insects in the lake water, nobody could get close.
Who knew what was still to happen later, unexpectedly, this place was this unsettled.
Upon reaching the base, she saw quite a few people gathered around, all poised and ready for action.
"Sister Yuan, what’s going on?"
"Not sure, probably heading over there, let’s hurry back."
"Okay..."
