Survival in the apocalypse: I exploited a bug in an infinite dungeon.

However, those weren't the most alarming pieces of news.

The scariest thing is:

The average red ant queen is about 7-10mm in size and can lay 1500-5000 eggs a day.

The ancient queen ant is over 20mm in size and lays as many as 500.000 to 1.000.000 eggs a day.

These insect eggs have extremely high hatching and survival rates.

The number of new red ants born each day is terrifying.

They are also much more aggressive than existing red ants.

After it escaped, the research institute began a secret search.

Later, when the "staircase collapse" incident occurred, they immediately determined from the video that these were all mutated red ants.

Knowing they could no longer hide it, they reported the matter to the authorities.

Before the authorities could find the queen ant, the ant infestation broke out completely.

……

After this news was released, netizens were furious, and players were stunned.

Both NPCs and players know that the current extermination rate is not as fast as the queen ant's egg-laying rate.

If the queen ant isn't found, this disaster will continue indefinitely.

Given the current situation in Anqing City, they may soon invade other cities.

Such consequences are something no one can bear.

Finding the queen ant is an extremely difficult task.

The residents had only just learned about the news, and now they were too afraid to even leave their homes. Where were they supposed to find this thing?

Fortunately, the authorities simply told the public the truth and did not harbor any other hopes.

However, players in the community immediately started researching the news after seeing it.

A new player joined today; their skills are similar to those of a hacker.

He intercepted some information that had not been officially released and sent it to the group.

One of the most important points is that the authorities conduct comparisons and investigations.

Three locations suspected to be where the queen ant is hiding have been identified.

However, there are too many ants in the city now.

They would have to get rid of the ants before they could even investigate.

This gives players time to act.

According to the intercepted intelligence, the official plan for the operation was three days later.

There are three suspected locations where the queen ant is hiding: the basement of a collapsed building, an undiscovered area of ​​the research center, and below the sewer outlet where the red ants emerge the most.

Players who wish to complete the mission should act within these three days.

There are currently 76 people in the group, and some people have teams, making a total of 90 people.

If divided into three groups, each group will have approximately 30 people.

However, since the places of residence and teleportation points are different, it's impossible for it to be so evenly distributed.

After discussing it, everyone decided to first check which location they were closest to before forming groups.

Fill in your nickname, available weapons and skills, and nearest location in the form.

After you finish writing the form, send it to the group admin, who will then compile it and post it in the group.

Shi Jinwei's residential area is in the city center, and the nearest place is the research center.

Her rent is high, so there are fewer players staying here.

After the forms were submitted, only 7 players, excluding Shi Jinwei, were allowed to come to the research center, including the hacker player.

The area with the most players was at the sewer exit, where there were 44 players.

As for the collapsed building, there were 38 players.

Seeing this number, Shi Jinwei was initially worried that her players might back out.

But when I saw the skills section, my eyes lit up.

In the two groups with more players, nearly half of them were players whose support skills were completely useless.

In addition to hacking skills, four of the other seven members of her group also possess offensive skills.

They are:

Guoguo: Attack - Lightning Attack.

Auntie: Assistance - Mental Perception (perceives all life forms within a diameter of 200 meters and a height of 3 meters).

Grass Jelly: Auxiliary - Hacking Techniques.

Get a bottle of DDT: Support - Conceal your presence.

AD Calcium: Both offensive and defensive – two playing cards.

123456: Can attack, support, and defend – Harden.

WORD: Can be used for both support and defense – Water condensation (condensing water molecules in the air into water droplets).

The skill "It's Auntie" is the same as that of a player killed on Volcano Island.

The group was quite satisfied with the team's composition.

In particular, other teams also need to figure out how to arm themselves before going out.

Their ability to use a bottle of DDT is almost identical to Shi Jinwei's invisibility, and it can also be used on others.

So once you've gathered them, you don't need to worry about being attacked by red ants.

The other players in the group were very envious when they saw this, and they also brainstormed ways to get out of the group.

Jinwei didn't have time to pay attention to these things.

Because the group owner created a separate group for each of the assigned teams.

The network signal is still weakening.

They can chat without any problems, all thanks to the group admin's skills.

The players believe that the group leader needs to ensure everyone's communication and prevent any incidents from happening.

His skill serves no other purpose than attacking or defending.

So all he needs to do in this mission is protect himself from dying.

As for why he wasn't told to stay home and not participate in the operation, it's because they knew the importance of 1000 points.

The group admin didn't stand on ceremony and accepted everyone's kindness.

After discussing it, everyone decided to take action tonight.

Going out during the day is too conspicuous; nobody wants to be on the front page.

As for how each squad should act, they can discuss it within their respective squads.

We only discuss things in the main group when we need to communicate with other teams.

Everyone agreed and joined their respective team groups.

Shi Jinwei and eight others formed a team.

He didn't remain silent after going inside.

The first person to speak up was to ask for a bottle of dichlorvos.

Here's a bottle of DDT: my skill level is the safest when I go out. My idea is for me to pick you guys up, what do you think?

Hearing him say that, everyone except Shi Jinwei breathed a sigh of relief.

They were also worried about how to get to the research center.

If my teammates come to pick me up, it will be much safer.

Shi Jinwei joined the team, and she wouldn't be a lone wolf who didn't care about anything.

Happy Horse: Can your skill conceal the presence of a car? @Give me a bottle of DDT.

Give me a bottle of dichlorvos: Sure.

Happy Horse: How about you meet up with me first? I rented a modified SUV. Once you arrive, we can drive there to pick them up faster.

The reason I say this is because even the air vent filters in her car are custom-made.

This material is breathable and sturdy, and given the current level of evolution of red ants, it would be very difficult for them to squeeze in through the ventilation openings.

With the addition of the DDT technology, it's definitely safer than a regular car.

Upon hearing her description of the car, the others immediately nodded in agreement.

So they agreed to act at 7 p.m. and everyone went to make their own preparations.

At 6:40 PM, Dichlorvos called out to Shi Jinwei in the group chat.

Tell her you've already left and tell her to get ready.

Shi Jinwei replied "received" and waited patiently at home.

The network is now completely down.

The same applies to the power system.

At night, fires caused by power lines can still be seen in other places.
