"Awakened ones" were like humans evolving again, and those evolved humans who had obtained various abilities did not treat them as humans at all!
Would humans treat apes as their kind? The answer was no. One could imagine how proud it was for ordinary people to have a brother as an Awakened in this small survival base.
When the disaster descended, they were lucky enough to gather together and hide in the dark basement, shivering. Under the intimidation of guns, they appeared to be a little orderly.
A group of people from the neighboring city found this place! Yes, they came from another city! What a piece of explosive news!
The insects outside are raging. How can humans beat those monsters? They came here on foot. Guns and bullets are useless to them! A group of people who call themselves "Awakened".
Until this small survival base, a high school boy who was often bullied awakened late at night and became a figure who could dominate them. In the past, the people who bullied him were brutally killed.
Only then did they know that the relationship between Awakened ones and ordinary humans was two completely different!
After that, there was something as magical as insect crystals. Everyone was envious. A large force was said to send the awakened ones to the outer city to investigate insects.
For the ordinary humans who were struggling in the cracks, all of this was too far away from them. It was only until they heard that from morning until now, the insect nest had already been emptied!
There were only a lot of insect corpses left! Heavens, this was a great opportunity. There were only a few Awakened ones. Naturally, they did not have enough manpower. Thus, the use of these ordinary people came.
The people participating this time could obtain ten kilograms of red-crowned beetle meat! It was simply crazy. There were even people who wanted to pick up the scraps. If they could take out an insect crystal from the insect corpse
Even if they could not compare to those Awakened ones, they could still show off their strength among ordinary humans!
At that time, those ordinary women with inferior looks who had not been taken a fancy to by the Awakened ones would obediently climb into their beds with their fingers hooked.
Everyone was extremely excited. In the past two days, the number of insects has been decreasing. They had also seen it. Although they were unsure of the reason, they did not care. In any case, if the sky collapsed, there would be a tall one. They would only have a rotten life.
They did not know if they would still care about this so-called "rotten life!"
Lunch? The moldy bread was somewhat stiff, but it was not bad.
As for the good things from the supermarket, only the awakened ones and their relatives were qualified to distribute them.
As for the bearded man who was called "boss" by the four men, his heart was gloomy. The so-called awakened brother was only a little better than the others.
The mission this time was to go deep into the insect nest, not like others, cleaning the periphery of the insect nest.
There were probably more than a dozen people with them. When the time came, there would be awakened ones entering with them, and they would be responsible for the transportation. After the end, they would give each of them an insect crystal.
It sounds pretty good. However, the bearded man did not think so. He would rather stay outside than venture into the disgusting bug nest! If an accident happened, they would be the best shield for the group of awakened ones!
The gloom in his eyes could not be eliminated, but he still had to pretend to be comfortable on his face, trying hard to fool these silly spores.
The more people there were, the higher the chance of him surviving.
Thinking of his four-year-old daughter in the base, he gritted his teeth without leaving a trace. He threw his homemade cigarette butt on the ground and spat, "Let's go. Don't let them wait too long."
The people behind him hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes. We must not let those awakened ones wait for us. Otherwise, we will suffer again."
The person wrapped in old clothes shivered as if thinking of something bad.
The bridge was not close to the insect nest. After all, it took a lot of time to lure the insects there.
Kurumi and the others ran all the way quickly. There were more insects on the road, but they were all scattered. It seemed that it was because of the destruction of the insect nest.
Without the high-level insects to lead them, they regained their freedom.
Seeing the humans running over, they screamed excitedly and were killed in one blow. Even their running speed did not decrease at all.
The ground blown by the anti-tank grenade seemed to have been plowed again. There were potholes. In addition to the corpses of the insects, there were several scattered human limbs.
Their pupils reflected the distant bug nest. With their speed, it wouldn't be long before they arrived.
The group of a hundred survivors had already arrived in the area of the bug nest. Looking at the broken rocks and insect corpses that could be seen everywhere on the road, their hearts throbbed.
No matter how one looked at it, this scene had just gone through a great battle. The charred ground was almost like a missile washing ground!
The steel pipe that had been blown out of the water supply system in the city was still spraying water outside, washing the dark ground of the insect blood.
The two Awakened ones exchanged glances. The charred smell of gunpowder in the air gave them an illusion.
"The Self-Defense Forces have been here before?"
"Heh, they were defeated by a small insect team. Why would they come here? And they even managed to beat up the insect nest?"
The man in black was silent. It was not a good sign that someone else had such a lethal weapon.
"Did you go to the headquarters of the Tokisaki Financial Group? The leader said that there might be special weapons hidden there."
"Not yet. I will go there after cleaning up the nest. It is a pity that the military factory of Tokisaki is not built here. Otherwise, it will save a lot of effort."
"Living in a dream."
Being ridiculed by the man in black, he did not care at all, "I happen to have an illegitimate child of a senior member of the Tokisaki Financial Group. It can be said that he is very familiar with the entire Tokisaki Building."
Looking around, he whispered into the man's ear, "Including the secret door over there."
A light flashed in the eyes of the man in black. He squeezed out a rare smile on his stiff face as if reminding, "There must be something good in the basement."
He nodded and stood aside, not saying anything.
Although the ordinary people behind them were curious about what the two Awakened ones were saying, they would not blindly ask. They only needed to do what they had to do.
Looking at the red-crowned beetle chewing on the insect nest, the man in black suddenly stepped on the ground. His body shot out like an arrow leaving the bow. His fist had a faint earthen-yellow wind attached, and he punched the insect's head!
With a bang, the beautiful red shell was slightly dented, with spiderweb-like cracks in the surroundings. The fierce red eyes lit up, and the giant horn on his head was aimed at the man!
"Whoosh!" The clothes on his chest were torn open, his muscles were cut with blood, and the man's leg had ruthlessly hit it!
