Official Broadcast; the Ant King Appears
Underground Shelter #3 in Longjiang City.
The shelter that could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people was divided into ten areas. In each area, there were more than 10,000 three-story iron beds. They were all packed with people.
There were also several large kitchens and bathrooms. The power came from the underground power grid, which had not been destroyed yet.
However, there were differences in treatment among the people. No matter what era it was, there would always be unfairness.
Divine Runemasters had their own rooms with kitchens and bathrooms.
The supplies in this shelter were only enough to feed so many people for about ten days.
A depressing atmosphere loomed over the entire place.
The survivors were shocked and confused, grieving the deaths of their loved ones. Their hearts were just like the gloomy sky outside.
Since the satellite network had been turned on, those who still had their phones were browsing news about the disaster on Dragon Net. The announcement made by the government was nothing more than a bunch of comforting words.
Bzzzzt!
At this moment, a notification of an official live broadcast was sent out.
A commotion broke out in the shelter immediately.
“Look, there’s an official broadcast!”
“Really? Is the government making an announcement?”
Those without their phones quickly gathered around those with phones.
At this moment, the big screens hanging on the walls of the shelter suddenly lit up one after another, showing the scene at Gu Changqing’s shelter.
Everyone watched as an unimaginably huge army of ants surrounded the high walls of the shelter and felt their skin crawl.
“F*ck, so many ants!”
Suddenly, the scene cut to the armor-clad Divine Runemasters at the entrance of the shelter.
“Are they all Divine Runemasters?”
“Isn’t it obvious from their armor that they’re Divine Runemasters?”
“Look at them. Are they going to fight the mutant ants?”
Everyone’s eyes were glued to the screen at this moment.
…
At the entrance of the shelter.
“Boss!”
Everyone was raring to go at this moment.
Gu Changqing, who activated the Grim Reaper divine rune, looked like the Grim Reaper at this moment. The aura he emitted made everyone feel ill at ease. Under the fearsome mask, he said in a low and hoarse voice, “Wu Rui, bring 50 people with you to collect crystal cores. The others will kill the ants!”
Wu Rui, who donned the Demi Dragon Armor, nodded and quickly selected 50 men.
After that, Gu Changqing pressed the switch to open the gate.
Rumble!
Gu Changqing stood alone in front of the gate while the others stood at the back.
In just a moment, the ants crawled into the compound in large numbers.
Gu Changqing watched silently as thousands of gigantic ants crawled in. Although the gate was barely one-third open, many ants were already very close to his feet.
The people watching the broadcast all over the country could not help but hold their breaths as they watched.
Boom!
Gu Changqing suddenly made a move. The death aura, which was like a black fog, surged out of his body. His bone scythe shone with a black light as he thrust it out.
Boom!
In just an instant, a black chain, which was dozens of meters long, shot out, killing at least thousands of ants that had crawled in. Their bodies exploded, and milky-white crystal cores dropped to the ground.
“Kill!” Gu Changqing said in a hoarse voice after killing the ants that crawled in. Then, he took the lead and charged out.
As soon as he stepped out, he saw more brownish-black ants swarming over like a tide.
Boom!
Gu Changqing stomped his foot on the ground. A rumbling noise rang out before the death aura surged out from the ground.
The ants exploded and died as soon as they came into contact with the black fog.
The Grim Reaper divine rune and the Skull divine rune were the most suitable for mass killing.
“Kill!”
Zhang Hu and Lin Feng led the others and charged out as well at this moment.
At the same time, Wu Rui and the 50 men followed closely behind. Their job was to collect the crystal cores.
Since there were too many ants, it was impossible to kill all of them at once. No one knew if they could drive the ants away.
After the men left, the guard closed the iron gate. With that, the massacre of the mutant insects began.
Zhang Hu brandished his saber and killed a few ants every second. The ants that managed to get close to him and climb up his body could not even leave a scratch on his armor, let alone hurt him.
Boom!
Unsurprisingly, Gu Changqing was the fiercest of them all. As he brandished the bone scythe, the death fog spread through the entire place. All the ants that came into contact with it exploded and died without exception, leaving only their crystal cores behind.
The death fog left a trail of destruction in its wake. Even the mutant plants in the surroundings withered and died.
The men dressed in demonic armor fought fiercely as well. They brandished their weapons and hacked at the ants. In just a moment, green blood covered the ground.
This one-sided massacre would only come to an end when they were exhausted.
…
The survivors watched with rapt attention.
Someone exclaimed, “That Divine Runemaster dressed like the Grim Reaper is so awesome! Just a casual wave of his hand can kill a large number of mutant ants!”
“These Divine Runemasters are undoubtedly strong, but how long can they last? Can they kill all the ants?”
“You’re right. No matter how powerful they are, can they really deal with millions of ants?”
“Whatever it is, I dare say that no mutant beast is a match for that Grim Reaper Divine Runemaster in the Nine Region Empire!”
No one doubted the strength of Gu Changqing and his men, but they could not help wondering about how long they would last against his endless stream of ants. However, after witnessing their strength, they seemed to have a little hope, no longer drowning in despair like before.
…
About ten minutes later, a thunderous roar rang from the distance.
Subsequently, a vicious-looking ant that was the size of a van and covered in hard scales slowly appeared on the distant hill. It was clearly the king of the ants. It stood proudly on top of the hill and looked at the humans killing its kind with its lantern-like eyes. Without wasting another minute, it charged forward.
