My apocalyptic heroine has come true

Just now.

Amid the sound waves of the hovering drone, Xia Xiaochi seemed to hear another discordant and unfamiliar voice.

It sounded like the sound of electricity from some miniature engine starting up.

Since Xia Xiaochi herself was in the Ark Shelter, she could only judge the situation outside through the images brought by the reconnaissance aircraft from high above.

Xia Xiaochi adjusted his gaze but couldn't see where the strange sound came from.

And the other side.

Fang Ming, who had the ability to observe everything within a kilometer, naturally saw the thing at a glance.

at this time.

A black spider, about the size of a basketball, was standing under Xia Xiaochi's drone.

The spider is black with a hint of blue, its body looks furry, and its eight legs are covered with strange blue patterns.

Unlike those black spear spiders that are taller than humans, the compound eyes of this little spider are not red, but blue that is closer to cyan.

This bluish-green color... reminded Fang Ming of the color of the special energy crystal that Shi Yi told him yesterday.

Fang Ming immediately became alert. He pressed the microphone and said in a steady voice:

"Xia Xiaochi, don't move yet."

"Uh-huh?"

Xia Xiaochi, who was operating the drone's robotic arm, froze.

"It doesn't mean that you should keep your body still, but you should keep the drone still." Fang Ming said.

Xia Xiaochi suddenly thought of something, and his tense arms hung in the air without falling down.

Fang Ming adjusted the perspective of the reconnaissance plane for her, and Xia Xiaochi finally saw the furry black and blue little spider.

The spider seemed to have noticed them too.

It slowly raised its head, and its spider head covered with blue lines actually looked towards the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft high in the sky.

"..."

The little spider blinked its blue compound eyes.

Fang Ming's heart tightened as a result.

For some reason, it could actually see a kind of 'wisdom' in these eyes.

This little spider seems to be thinking.

and……

It seemed to know that the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft in mid-air was observing it.

"Buzz..."

The little spider's eyes emitted a bright blue-green light, and the markings all over its body glowed at this moment.

Fang Ming heard some subtle resonance in the air.

His pupils shrank, and he directly snatched the operating authority of the supply machine from Xia Xiaochi.

"Run!"

The supply plane, which was only ten centimeters above the ground, suddenly soared into the sky.

Although Fang Ming's reaction speed was fast enough, he was still a step too late.

Blue energy instantly exploded under Fang Ming's feet, and high temperature heat instantly spread out with the little black spider as the center.

The signals of a supply plane and a reconnaissance plane were cut off.

"Rumble--"

It took a second for the sound waves to reach the Ark Shelter.

Then came a violent shaking.

Apart from Fang Ming's active throwing of explosives onto the ground, this was the first explosion in the Ark Shelter.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the charred soil that was still burning on the ground gradually became apparent.

Several potholes appeared four hundred meters outside the Ark Shelter.

Debris was scattered around the pit, sparks rose with the heat, and thick smoke continued to billow out from the explosion.

Fang Ming counted them carefully.

At that moment just now, at least ten energy crystals exploded.

In addition to the energy crystals that the little spider already carries in its body, there should also be energy crystals that are waiting to be recovered. They produced a resonant reaction with the little spider at the time of the explosion.

fine……

I collected most of the energy crystals early in the morning.

Otherwise, if more than 100 grams of energy crystals exploded at the same time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Brother Fang Ming?!"

Xia Xiaochi's little face was pale.

Even she hadn't expected that the mutant spider, which had just been discovered yesterday, would appear in the Ark Shelter today?!

It's too fast!

"It's okay. The walls of our shelter are made of very hard material and are not damaged."

Fang Ming took a quick look around and found that the explosion had not caused any changes to the wall.

"Luckily, you let me and Tomato come back early, otherwise we would have been killed or seriously injured..."

Xia Xiaochi felt a little scared.

"...By the way, what about those two drones?"

"I'm sending two more supply planes to bring them back. If they can be repaired, they'll be repaired. If they can't, they'll be dismantled."

Fang Ming answered casually.

Compared to this, he was more concerned about what happened just now.

Fang Ming wanted to do an experiment because he didn't know the conditions for these little spiders to self-destruct.

After noticing that the other party was observing the drone in the sky, Fang Ming's first guess was that the little spider would explode on its own when it saw a "living thing" or a "moving object".

So he told Xia Xiaochi not to move.

result……

Fang Ming's guess was wrong.

Spider-Man exploded anyway.

But they didn't do anything just now, no shooting, no releasing of energy, no moving, and even no sound except the sound of the drone's propellers.

Why did that little spider explode by itself?

If they were really the type that could explode at any time, then they wouldn't be so quiet during the day and at night.

Their explosions definitely have some purpose, and are even planned.

And there are definitely limitations to this type of explosion.

Otherwise, they can fully utilize the characteristics of resonance explosion and carry out a large-scale explosion of overall resonance when mutant species appear densely at night.

Since the last few nights have been peaceful, it proves that the abilities they have evolved are not that outrageous.

"The last time it exploded at the gate of Shelter 2737, this time it happened at the gate of Shelter Ark..."

While Fang Ming was thinking, Xia Xiaochi's guess had already taken shape in his mind.

She raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Fang Ming:

"Just now, when that little black spider exploded, there wasn't a single living thing around, yet it still chose to self-destruct and cause damage to the area around it."

"Brother Fang Ming, do you think... their purpose is to destroy the building?"

Xia Xiaochi's guess made Fang Ming suddenly enlightened.

"Very likely." Fang Ming nodded.

Recalling the scene of the mutant little spider looking up at "him", Fang Ming felt a chill down his spine.

Of course, Spider-Man wasn't really looking at Fang Ming.

It was just observing the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft controlled by Fang Ming, and its sight was locked on the only camera of the drone.

This scene reminded Fang Ming of the time when he was out for a stroll with a drone and passed by those large mutant spiders, and those spiders would look at him like this.

However, the mutant spider at that time did not care about Fang Ming. Its scarlet compound eyes just glanced at Fang Ming briefly before turning away.

"Do you think they want to destroy more than just 'buildings'?"

Fang Ming thought for a moment and then said, "Perhaps what they want to destroy is the 'weapon'."

"Weapons?" Xia Xiaochi pondered these two words.

Fang Ming nodded. "As their population grows stronger, the only thing that threatens them is human weapons. However, they can't yet distinguish what is a weapon, so any technology or building related to weapons is within their attack range."

Chapter 96 Are you threatening me? (48K)

Strong winds carrying fine sand swept across the sky.

Even through the phone screen, Fang Ming seemed to be able to taste a rusty earthy smell.

The outline of the shelter in the distance was submerged in sand, and the entire building seemed to be soaked in muddy soup.

Only when the reconnaissance plane got close enough did Fang Ming see the current situation of Shelter 2737.

The wall that was blown up yesterday has been barely filled evenly with metal plates.

But on the other side of the building, there was another deep hole.

This time the hole is larger, and has even exposed the wiring inside the wall. Hundreds of people are standing under the hole, busy welding the metal plates back on.
