Doomsday: Humanity shrinks 100 times

Chapter 16: The Mutant Appears

Lu Yuning looked at the sky. It was already afternoon. With his current ability, it was very slow to process the materials in the trash can. It took him almost two hours to get rid of just a little bit.

Wu Xiao can put these things away without packing them, as they are just about the same size as the space he has.

A small hole can be seen on the trash can, barely enough for an arm to fit in.

There is no need to move the things inside out, just make the hole wide enough for people to get in and collect materials.

His main purpose is still materials such as mineral water bottles, which are much softer than the outer shell of the trash can and easier to process. Metal is not needed for the time being.

"It's getting late, let's set off and go home!" Lu Yuning shouted to the three of them, in high spirits.

The three of them were standing at a fork in the road at this time, looking around curiously, and only turned around when they heard Lu Yuning's call.

"There seems to be a building on Yu Ning's side." Wu Xiao pointed to the fork in the road on the right.

"There are also two forks in the road here, and I only walked the one along the river," Zhang Xinyue gestured.

Lu Yuning also looked over and could vaguely see a building, but it was a little blurry and its outline looked like a pavilion.

"Come over again when you have a chance. Today's time..." Before Lu Yuning could finish her words, she was suddenly interrupted by Zhang Xinyue.

"Be careful, there's a bug coming! It sounds like a mosquito, huh? That's not right..." Zhang Xinyue looked confused and inexplicably nervous.

Lu Yuning noticed her emotions and immediately became alert.

Zou Yunxin and Wu Xiao, however, didn't take it seriously.

They had killed countless mosquitoes along the way, and they were no longer a threat to them.

Just as Lu Yuning was about to remind him, an insect appeared in his sight.

It looked like a mosquito, but it was red all over and flew incredibly fast!

Zou Yunxin and Wu Xiao also noticed something was wrong at this time and quickly became alert.

The three of them stood in front and protected Zhang Xinyue behind them.

The mosquito rushed towards the four people quickly without slowing down, and just crashed straight into the three people in front. Judging from its route, it would be blocked by Lu Yuning's shield.

This red-bodied mosquito was really weird, and the three of them didn't dare to act rashly. They could only hope that it would just hit Lu Yuning's shield and not cause any trouble.

Lu Yuning was also prepared for the collision, and even took a step back just in case.

Under the gaze of the three people, the mosquito quickly approached the shield, and the three people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As soon as it is intercepted by the shield, Zou Yunxin and Wu Xiao will immediately rush forward to attack it. They have already mastered this coordination.

At this moment, the mosquito actually climbed up in the air in a strange route, and then fell down quickly, drawing a sharp angle in the air!
Zhang Xinyue flew to the back of the three people at lightning speed, with a needle-like object emerging from its mouth, and stabbed at her!
Lu Yuning's hair stood on end. This mosquito seemed to have intelligence!?
It actually knew to bypass the three of them and instead attack Zhang Xinyue who was unarmed behind them. It was also obvious that it pretended to attack Lu Yuning first, and then launched a follow-up attack when everyone was distracted.

Lu Yuning didn't have time to think about it. The mosquito was too fast and flew over his head. He had no time to turn around.

But if I give up now, Zhang Xinyue behind me will probably be in danger.

He gritted his teeth, retracted the leg that was stepped behind him, and pushed hard on the ground. He flew backward at an angle, holding the shield in front of him.

After the perspective changed, the mosquito appeared in his field of vision again, and this time it was very close.

He saw it clearly. Except for its wings, the mosquito's entire body was blood red. There was a faint glow on its body, as if it had grown a layer of scales?
The mouthparts on its mouth were actually exposed in advance. They were about five or six millimeters long and looked extremely sharp.

The mosquito was about to disappear from Lu Yuning's sight, its speed significantly faster than his. "It's over," Lu Yuning muttered to himself, feeling a chill in his heart.

As Lu Yuning fell backwards to the ground, a muffled groan sounded behind him!
Lu Yuning ignored the pain, jumped up, and looked towards Zhang Xinyue, but the tragedy he had expected did not happen.

Zhang Xinyue sat on the ground in a daze, while Zou Yunxin in front of her was squatting on the ground with a painful expression.

A thin needle-like wound went straight through his shoulder, and blood was flowing out from the front and back of his body!
The mosquito succeeded in its attack, but then flapped its wings and flew back into the air, apparently preparing for its next attack.

"Old Zou!"

"Brother Zou!"

"Yun Xin!"

Three different calls sounded at the same time, but the tone was very urgent.

Zhang Xinyue was the closest to him. She didn't care about the mosquitoes above her head and quickly crawled towards Zou Yunxin, but tears were falling down her face.

The moment Zhang Xinyue saw the mosquito, she was stunned and had no time to react. She thought she was going to die. Then she thought of her parents at home and thought that she might not have the chance to see them again. A feeling of sadness came over her.

At this moment, a figure rushed over and pushed her to the ground.

When he came to his senses, he found Zou Yunxin lying in front of him, and he probably knew what was going on.

"Yunxin, how are you? Don't scare me, just say something." Zhang Xinyue asked anxiously while wiping her tears.

Fortunately, a weak voice was heard.

"It hurts... I'm fine, Xinyue, Yuning, be careful!"

Hearing his words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but his condition was still not optimistic, as the mosquitoes above were still lurking around him.

Lu Yuning and Wu Xiao looked at each other and quickly ran towards Zou Yunxin and the others.

The mosquito also moved and rushed down again, its target still being Zhang Xinyue. It seemed that it had determined that she was weaker.

Seeing that it was too late again, Wu Xiao had an idea. He stopped where he was and threw out everything in the space. The shield in his hand quickly disappeared, and then he stared at the mosquito's flight path nervously.

Lu Yuning glanced at him, his expression slightly changing. He probably knew what he wanted to do. Without hesitation, he dropped the shield in his hand and rushed over.

The mosquito swooped down at lightning speed, and when it was less than a centimeter away from Zou Yunxin and the other man, a shield appeared out of thin air in its flight path.

Because it happened too suddenly, the mosquito couldn't dodge and hit the shield head-on.

Lu Yuning was still some distance away at this time. Seeing this scene, he gritted his teeth and exerted force with his legs and bounced out, hitting the mosquito accurately, and then fell to the ground with it.

He didn't care about the pain. If they lost this only chance, all four of them would have to stay here today.

He took advantage of the situation and grabbed the mosquito's mouthparts to prevent it from attacking him with it. At this time, his entire body was almost stuck to the mosquito.

The mosquito's legs kept hitting him, but it had no effect.

Lu Yuning looked at the mosquito in front of him, whose body was covered in blood and whose legs were covered in hair.

Without time to feel disgusted, he curled up his body, clamped his legs on its chest and abdomen, held the mosquito's mouthparts tightly with both hands, and then suddenly exerted force from his core, pulling out its mouthparts and head together.
