Chapter 251 The Great Water Ant

It was getting dark.

Backup power starts.

Lights up from some floors distributed in Hope City.

Let the hope shine brightly inside and outside the city.

This is an issue that was taken into consideration when building the city.

After a day, I hope the bugs in the city will be completely eliminated.

However, due to the lighting, there are still many new flying insects that are constantly entering Hope City.

"Holy shit, look, what is that!"

A dense mass of black, each one is the size of a silver coin, but when they spread their transparent wings, they look like they are the size of a ping pong ball.

Seeing those things really makes my scalp numb!

"Big water ant!"

"Many people don't know this name, it's a termite!"

"It seems that this period is just in their breeding season! When two of them pair up, they can create a termite nest!"

"If you don't turn off the lights, they will keep flying over."

"Be careful. They can secrete formic acid. Fortunately, they couldn't be harmed before the end, but now we don't know how powerful they are."

"Turn off all the lights in the city and leave the lights on the city wall to shine on the water!"

Xiaotuanzi has already decided in his heart that after this crisis, the entire city must be investigated, and a pair of termites must not be allowed to settle in Hope City!

Otherwise the whole city will be destroyed.

Every year from April to June, as long as it rains, this thing will be completely dark.

As long as a single team of this thing is left behind, she can dismantle the base.

Before the end, they only gnawed on wood, but now they have begun to gnaw on stones, and the walls of houses have become their favorite nests.

When people discovered them, the walls had definitely been completely hollowed out.

Xiao Tuanzi didn't know whether he should be lucky or not. The flood had flooded the dam and it was now June, which was the end of the giant water ant's breeding period.

I don’t know if giant water ants have come to the dam before.

If they were really allowed to settle inside the dam, the dam would be completely hollowed out within a few years.

Xiaotuanzi had nothing to do all day, so he wouldn't have the mental energy to go deep into the dam to check the structures.

Fortunately, there is a flood now. Regardless of whether there are such things in the dam, it can be said that all of them are dead now.

Xiaotuanzi really ignored this thing, because in the past, everyone would be very happy just looking at them!

The premise is not to miss any group of giant water ants.

At that time when food was in short supply, giant water ants were a very important source of food, otherwise how would they survive this long year.

However, the taste of water ants is really not very good. It has a strong earthy smell, which is one of the reasons why they did not become delicacies on the dining table on a large scale before the end of the world.

But what I have to say is their nutritional value. The 18 amino acids in the body of water ants are as high as 79.71%. They contain more than 10 trace elements and 11 kinds of vitamins that are necessary for the human body. They are the best among animals!

This is a very good thing. It can be said that this period of every year is a very important 'harvest season'.

Now City of Hope, after experiencing the parking lot crisis, cannot say that food is very sufficient. It is undergoing a huge restoration project.

I don’t know how long it will take to start hydroponics again.

Xiaotuanzi immediately carved words to inform other people.

There was already a very complete plan for catching giant water ants in the previous life.

Lights in other areas of the city are turned off.

Several large searchlights shone into the low-lying water.

Countless large water ants jumped into it and finally drowned in the water. Then they became food.

Everyone believed what Xiaotuanzi said unconditionally.

Due to the arrival of the giant water ants, the city wall indeed faced a difficult challenge, because the giant water ants pounced on the light, and then the zombie fish pounced on the giant water ants, but in the end, the lamp on the city wall was injured.

The lamp was directly smashed by a giant water ant.

Then the lights go out.

One night passed.

There were layers of fish carcasses floating on the water outside the city.

The fighting hasn't stopped yet.

The hunting of giant water ants in the city was finally over, and the sun finally appeared, letting everyone who was fighting breathe a sigh of relief.

If this continues, how long will the water rise?

But I don’t know if the storm has stopped upstream.

The amount of water now has reduced a lot.

The hardest moment is over.

In the city, tons and tons of giant water ant corpses were piled up together, making them look very spectacular.

The smell of a large number of zombie fish has covered up the smell of living people in Hope City.

There are very few zombie fish surrounding them.

I believe it won't be long before so many people are needed to be stationed here.

However, in the city, the disposal of giant water ant bodies has just begun.

At least initially, these large water ants need to be dried for easy storage.

As for the subsequent processing, there is no need to rush.

The water outside the city shows no sign of receding.

The normally non-combatants in the city have now withdrawn from the battlefield, but have gone to various places in the city to continue their work.

Electricians consider power supply, inspect lines, repair damaged line equipment, etc.

Planters, such as those in charge of hydroponics, need to take a look at the current situation of vegetables and grains.

Without automated control of humidity, temperature, etc., then they need to rely on some common tools and then manual control.

You must know that those vegetables have been covered for a day, and the nutrient solution has not been adjusted for a day.

If they don't make adjustments in time, the dishes will be ruined.

And those mature vegetables also need to be harvested as soon as possible.

The rice harvest is just a few days away.

The entire City of Hope needs a lot of work, and everyone with red eyes is completing their work carefully, and no one is slacking off.

Those who were specifically responsible for the battle never went down the city wall at all. Even if they should take a break, they would retreat to the wall near Hope City, and then directly lean against the wall as a small team.

He almost fell asleep as soon as he clung to the wall.

The people fighting in front were not disturbed by the noise, and no matter what splashed onto them, they were not awakened.

But one thing that is very surprising is that only the people in front shouted "Support!"

Then the people sleeping in the row behind you will immediately open their eyes and rush forward to support you without thinking.

It's like they didn't sleep at all.

In hydroponic places in the city, people can add nutrients to the hydroponic solution one moment, and then fall asleep on the wall of the hydroponic tank the next.
