Chapter 7 Wen'an City 7

 When Bai Xi woke up, it was already evening.

I fried shredded pork with green pepper and served it with white rice mixed with chopped corn. I turned on my phone and checked the latest news while eating.

Forums on the Internet have already exploded.

"Oh my God! There is a huge ant nest under our community, and many people were dragged directly into the hole."

"It was so scary. I saw a person being dismembered into pieces while alive."

"Our house is on the first floor. If anyone can come to save me, I will give you a reward of 10,000 yuan."

"Ten thousand? Even if you give one hundred thousand, no one will come. Brother, let me give you a piece of advice. It is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself."

Suddenly, a new video appeared online.

In the video, several people are surrounded by giant ants, among which the shiny black ants that are several times larger than the surrounding ants are particularly conspicuous.

Bai Xi recognized at a glance that these should be the soldier ants she had guessed before. The following paragraph was mosaic, but based on the color, it can be inferred that these people were dismembered.

"Oh my God! Is it really the end of the world?"

"Have you noticed? We can no longer receive news from the outside. We can only receive speeches from Wen'an City, and other places seem to be blocked."

"I also discovered that when I sent a message to my classmates in the provincial capital, I couldn't send it out at all."

"This is too scary. Are we being imprisoned and making food for these giant ants?"

Panic and fear from the Internet spread, and then affected everyone in reality.

Bai Xi is not surprised. Being able to send them to this world and isolate a city's information is not a difficult task for the game.

After watching for a while, Bai Xi turned off her phone and walked into the kitchen to wash the dishes.

The information just collected online shows that, in addition to the fact that Wen'an City is under quarantine, ants seem to be becoming more and more active.

And after seeing blood, these ants went crazy, and their combat power instantly soared.

Just as Bai Xi was thinking carefully about what to do, a game-wide notification alerted all players.

[When the player completes the side mission, the genetic medicine in the laboratory is leaked in advance, the game progress is accelerated, and the remaining time until the mutation is 24 hours. Players, please be prepared!]

Seeing this message, all the players cursed.

"Holy shit! Who is that bastard? If I meet you, I will kill him."

"You must be mentally retarded! There are people in this world who take the initiative to make tasks more difficult for themselves."

In a hidden laboratory somewhere, a young man looked at the news in front of him with a confused expression. The big computer screen in front of him displayed:

[The release of the agent is complete and is expected to spread throughout the city within thirty-six hours.]

"What did I do?" The young man couldn't figure it out. He just accidentally touched the red button.

"It's over, now I have become a public enemy of the game. No, I can't show up." The young man thought for a while and decided to break the problem.

"Anyway, this lab bug doesn't dare to come, so we might as well just stay here and wait until the game is over."

Bai Xi was also shocked when he saw the news. Is there such an operation?

There are still twenty-four hours left in the game notification, which means that there are only twenty-four hours left in the relatively safe time.

Bai Xi sorted out the existing supplies. The inventory in the space was enough for her to eat for ten days and a half. There were still some unpacked in the house, so she should be able to eat for three to five days.

I don’t know how long it will take for this game to end, and I don’t know if these supplies are enough?

But it’s too dangerous to go out now.

Other players will definitely not miss the last 24 hours of stocking up, so she should stay at home peacefully!

Nine o'clock in the evening,

Bai Xi was awakened by a burst of thunder.

Immediately afterwards, crackling raindrops hit the window glass, accompanied by rumbling thunder, and lightning illuminated the dark room.

She walked to the window and looked at the city streets washed by the rain outside, and her heart sank.

On the third day of the game, the survival rate was 93%.

It rained heavily all night, and in the early morning there were still raindrops flying. The streets were washed clean, and a few big ants were wandering on the streets.

After breakfast, Bai Xi sat by the window and observed the situation outside.

It was seven o'clock in the evening when I received the news about the game yesterday, and there were still more than ten hours before the big change.

Not long after, Bai Xi broke out in sweat, "Why is it so hot today? It's like a steamer."

The sky outside has also become brighter, gray and a little gloomy.

The heavy rain last night has not yet penetrated, and the weather has not cooled down. It is uncharacteristically hot and humid.

"Dong dong dong~"

There was a knock on the door outside the house, and the girl's anxious voice came, "Hello, is anyone here?"

Bai Xi walked to the door, opened the peephole and saw a cute-looking girl in her mid-teens.

"What's the matter?" Bai Xi asked.

Coming to the door for no reason is probably premeditated. What happened before has made Bai Xi wary of everyone, especially players.

Hearing the response, the girl outside the door was happy, "Miss, do you have any fever-reducing medicine? My brother suddenly has a fever, and it's still raining outside. I dare not go out."

"I don't have any fever-reducing medicine."

Bai Xi decisively refused. She refused to contact anyone, especially people she didn't know or understand.

In fact, she had fever-reducing medicine. She didn't know what to buy when she was stocking up on supplies, so she bought a little of everything, but most of it was food.

"Sorry to bother you."

Disappointment flashed across the girl's face, but she was not angry.

In the last days, everyone is in danger. Helping is a matter of friendship, but not helping is a duty.

Before leaving, she kindly reminded: "Little sister, don't go out when it rains, and don't get wet with rainwater. This rain may cause problems."

After saying that, the girl turned and walked to the opposite door, knocked on the door in the same way, and asked the same questions, but did not receive any response.

The girl just knocked on the door one after another, and soon there was no sound.

Bai Xi stood behind the door, frowning, feeling entangled and guilty.

That girl looked like she really needed help, and the last words of concern hit her hard.

But Bai Xi was really afraid, fearing that she had a premeditated plan and was here to test him.

As a child who grew up in peacetime, Bai Xi is very troubled.

Emotions told her that she should help the girl, but reason told her not to contact anyone if there was danger.

A few minutes later, Bai Xi put on her backpack and went out.

She listened carefully in the corridor. The girl was going up the stairs to the fifth floor, knocking on the door one after another. There was no one else around.

Girls know how to take the stairs and are very alert.

Bai Xi thought for a moment, then quietly placed a box of antipyretics on the stairs leading to the sixth floor, then turned and returned to her hut.

She no longer cares whether the girl really needs it or not. It is enough for her conscience to be comforted.
