Infinite Disaster Survival

Chapter 22 Chapter 22

In the next few days, Wen Zheng led his team to be busy with the task of removing worm eggs, and did not worry about the worm meat incident at all.

But no matter how little they worry, they live in this area, and they are the first to discover this matter. The logistics personnel in charge of handling it will not deliberately avoid them when talking about trivial matters.

They obtain worm meat from the stationed team, and then process the worm meat into powder. They use the official flag of the stationed team to deceive the local residents and exchange a large amount of special hemostatic drugs from them.

The whole process was already perfected before Wen Zheng and his team arrived. I don’t know what tricks they played, but they really deceived the local residents that the powder was useful.

Faced with the special medicine that stops bleeding and saves lives after being attacked and the powder that directly avoids worm attacks, normal people will choose the latter.

So the hemostatic drugs were collected by them and sent out at a time. Even if they were arrested and searched again, they would only find the worm meat and part of the fake powder that had just been sent, and the hemostatic drugs would have been sent to who knows where.

Obviously, this place is one of the collection points, and the person in charge is trying to find the source.

Wen Zheng and his team put all their efforts into removing the eggs. Practice makes perfect, and the tasks in the green area are not difficult for them.

After dealing with the eggs in this area, Wen Zheng took the uninjured team members to the next target, and the injured team member was sent back to the base for temporary recuperation.

In short, the matter of worm meat has nothing to do with them.

From the cold weather to the bright sunshine, the weather changes with time, and the number of worms decreases rapidly. Wen Zheng's team has reached the edge of the city.

During this period, there were worms that had just been transferred in the yellow area.

The first time they were underground, when they saw the red light representing danger on the signal detector, the team members were panicked for a moment.

Fortunately, it was only one that was transferred. The team that was dealing with the eggs stopped and returned to the subway passage next to it as quickly as possible, quickly set up traps, and then patiently waited for the worm to approach.

The underground tunnels for subway operation are not as solid as those ordinary mud layers. Even if the worms can collapse them, they have enough time to move.

What's more, when the worms smell the food, they will find a gap to turn in and fall into the trap prepared for them.

Each time the new worms come, they act alone, and they are safe when they encounter them.

After two months, there were members of Wen Zheng's team who were accidentally injured, but they were all minor injuries, and the casualty rate was the lowest among all teams.

As time went by, the skilled team accelerated the speed of clearing, and the white fog that never appeared again weighed heavily on the hearts of all the operators.

In the past few days, there have been fogs, but they are all normal natural phenomena after being alert.

Without seeing the strange white fog appear again, people are looking forward to it not appearing again, and the worms will not evolve. At the same time, they are worried that there will be mutations during the underground clearing process, and it may be too late to retreat.

Moreover, without the white fog, the worm eggs are likely to hatch on their own. After so much time, there is one more thing to worry about.

Therefore, the personnel who went underground during this period were a little nervous.

Some times are inevitable, and soon they stopped worrying because the things they worried about happened.

On this day, Wen Zheng and his team were on a remote village. They spent several days cleaning up the worms in this area and calculated the approximate location of the worm nest. Then they went down from an abandoned dry well not far from the target.

"Is it foggy?"

The logistics personnel who stayed on the ground were always monitoring the situation underground. When they heard someone mention the word "white fog" which had become a sensitive word, they immediately looked up and looked around.

It was originally a sunny morning, but it felt foggy at this time. When they didn't pay attention, they just thought the weather turned from sunny to cloudy. Once someone mentioned it, they immediately became sensitive.

It was indeed a bit like foggy.

"Issue an emergency signal to notify the removal team to retreat from the underground. Everyone should be prepared for prevention and response."

The order was issued, the emergency notification button was activated, and a white fog pattern with a red edge appeared on the screen.

All the members present did not care about the relatively high temperature. They took out clothes from the equipment car parked nearby and wrapped themselves tightly, not even showing any skin on their faces. They even wore goggles where their eyes were.

This was a plan that had been prepared long ago. When ordinary fog appeared before, they dressed like this. Even if it was later found to be a false alarm, they would still do the same thing next time the same phenomenon appeared.

"No, the speed of this fog spreading is too fast. I'm afraid it's really that weird white fog." Someone shouted.

The others hurriedly looked up. In the short time they changed their equipment, the fog that was almost invisible became extremely obvious, and the entire sky protection was covered with white gauze.

"The speed of the white fog spreading is faster than last time." The commander in charge of the logistics unit muttered to himself, fearing that the evolved worms would be stronger than last time. He looked at the monitoring screen, "What's the situation below? Where did they retreat to?"

"The emergency retreat signal has been issued, but they have stayed underground for a while and just retreated." The monitoring personnel said, and adjusted the brightness of the screen again.

Everyone around was staring at the screen nervously, watching the white fog blocking everyone's sight at a speed visible to the naked eye. The originally peaceful nest began to have red dots flashing from time to time.

Hurry up, hurry up, the clearing team will soon reach the dry well to return.

"Backup team, get ready, turn on the lights!" The commander shouted towards the direction of the dry well. At this time, the situation there could no longer be seen. Only after the lights were turned on could people be seen.

The monitoring screen issued a piercing alarm, and the red dots of light connected into a piece. Those eggs were probably about to hatch.

The members of the underground operation could not see the appearance of the white fog at all. When they received the alarm from the ground for the first time, they had just found the nest of suspected worms.

The moment they received the alarm, everyone's heart tightened, and immediately thought of the many false alarms before, and they were not particularly nervous.

"Is it likely that fog will appear in this weather and time?" Wen Zheng asked, and his body kept sending him dangerous signals.

The team members became nervous after Wen Zheng spoke, and followed Wen Zheng to speed up and enter the possible nest.

After seeing the insect eggs inside, Wen Zheng did not destroy them as he did in the past, but took out the tightly sealed bombs and installed them in the cave.

Seeing Wen Zheng's actions, the team members knew that this time the white fog might really come, and none of them asked to return immediately, but used the fastest speed since training to install the bombs.

"Quickly evacuate in order, I'll be the last." Wen Zheng immediately asked after the installation. The alarm from the ground continued to sound, and he felt nervous for a long time.

Without arguing about the order of leaving, the first one to finish the installation ran to the cave entrance, and when the last team member ran away, Wen Zheng followed closely behind.

They had simulated this situation many times, and this time it was no longer a drill. When they were still a few meters away from the dry well, water drops seeped from the soil above their heads and dripped on their heads.

The others didn't care, but Wen Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He suppressed his anxiety, grabbed the rope thrown from above, and quickly moved up with the force given by the ground.

The team members left the wellhead first. When Wen Zheng was about to go out, he took out the safe ignition device from his waist, ignited it and threw it down, and pressed the button of the remote control bomb.

Using the rope to climb out of the wellhead, Wen Zheng shouted to the outside: "Lie down!"

The worm eggs in the ground cracked, the worm signal detector sounded, and the remote control button activated the bomb buried in the ground. The thick white fog blocked all kinds of signals, and the alarms from all places stopped abruptly. The fuse ignited by the flame spread underground, and the white fog gathered into water droplets in the soil and dripped slowly.

Everything happened within a few seconds or even shorter.

The ears caught the shouts of lying down, and there was no time to distinguish who was coming from which direction, and the body automatically obeyed the command to lie on the ground.

The violent rumbling sound appeared in the next moment, like an earthquake, the ground collapsed, and the violent vibration was felt even if you were lying down.

The ground personnel who were unaware of it thought that it was a worm drilling out of the ground, and tried their best to stay away from the part where the vibration occurred.

There were several people who were sensitive to directions. They felt that direction seemed to be the approximate location of the insect nest.

The worried worm attack did not come. In fact, the ground returned to calm in two minutes. Wen Zheng stood up from the ground and loudly conveyed their actions to the surroundings.

It turned out that it was not the movement of the eggs hatching, but the clearing team directly blew up the insect nest.

They were able to make such a decision at a critical moment and seize the opportunity to succeed. The ground staff wanted to cheer.

But Wen Zheng reminded everyone again that they could not relax their vigilance. The eggs hatched in the white fog might evolve stronger defenses. Those eggs that had not yet hatched were protected by hard mud pupae and might not be killed by the explosion. They might appear again at any time.

The communicator was destroyed by the white fog, and these warnings were all communicated by everyone's voice.

The staff who recovered from the shock caused by the explosion turned on the searchlight installed on the roof of the car, and the light illuminated the direction in the thick white fog.

The personnel stood up from the ground, supported each other and groped towards the location of the light. After accidentally colliding with their companions, the team of support lengthened again.

Those who were not good at fighting entered the carriage. The combatants led by Wen Zheng patiently groped around to set traps. The luring animals carried on the car were placed in the traps and shrouded in white fog.

Wait patiently, without making any sound, and use your ears to catch any movement that may come from underground.

No, there has been no movement.

After an hour, there was no movement, which can only mean that the worms underground were either blown to death or half-dead.

In short, they will not suddenly appear to eat people.

A small cheer came out of the car immediately. The white fog was too heavy to see who was cheering, and more people cheered immediately.

Everyone was able to be selected to complete the task, and they knew the limit. After a few cheers, they returned to calm. The commander divided all the staff into groups, taking turns to pay attention to the ground, measure the white fog and check the communication. Those who had no tasks temporarily rested on the spot and could not send out any animals.

The white fog was so thick that they could only stay where they were, patiently waiting for it to dissipate.

Waiting to check if all the worms in the underground nest were dead.

Waiting for the latest news after the communication was restored.
