I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse - Chapter 190

190 Whole Body Goes Numb

After preparing it, Du Yue opened the wooden door and released the trigger. The bugs that were originally on the wooden door were all burned to death by the high temperature. Their bodies fell to the ground and made crackling sounds. The wooden door was also burned black. However, Du Yue did not care about it. After she killed all the bugs on the wooden door, she went on to flame the iron gate. Then, she opened the gate, put on a helmet with a flashlight attached, and held the flamethrower in her hand. She started to spray fire in all directions.

When she reached the car, Du Yue put the two cars in her interspace. If those bugs had already gone into the cars, they would die for sure in the space.

Fortunately, the entire courtyard was only about 80 square meters. Otherwise, Du Yue would be exhausted if she wanted to flame every corner. There were not many bugs on the walls because the bugs that climbed up were all electrocuted to death by the power grid. There were already many dead bugs at the base of the walls.

The iron gate in the yard was already covered with bugs. Du Yue flamed the gate a few times with the flamethrower, and the bugs fell to the ground. After a while, there were no more bugs on the iron gate. Finally, all the places were dealt with, and Du Yue also knew where they had come from. The ground of the courtyard was not paved with cement, it was just soil. Right now, the ground was densely packed with tiny eyes. The bugs were crawling out from the ground.

!!
After Du Yue used the flamethrower to burn the bugs to death, she did not dare to waste a single second and sprayed the entire courtyard with the pesticide. As soon as she was done, Du Yue heard someone knocking on the door. Then, she heard He Xing’s voice. “Du Yue, there are bugs all over the door. I’ll think of a way to kill them now. Don’t come out, okay?” Du Yue was standing in the courtyard. When she heard He Xing’s words, she pushed the door open without hesitation.

“Didn’t I tell you not to—”

“Use this flamethrower and burn them to death!” As Du Yue spoke, she stuffed the flamethrower into He Xing’s arms. At first, He Xing had no idea what this thing was for. However, after Du Yue’s demonstration, he instantly understood how to use the flamethrower. The two of them worked together to burn all the bugs on the door and sprayed two large jars of pesticide before returning to the yard and closing the door again.

The two of them stood in the courtyard, not even daring to breathe. The smell of pesticide was already pungent, and with the smell of the burnt bugs, one breath of it was enough to make one nauseous. Du Yue carefully examined He Xing from head to toe. “Are there any bugs on you?”

He Xing waved his hands. “No, no. Not a single one. But I can’t say for sure about the bike.”

Du Yue immediately kept the bike into her interspace before entering the house with He Xing. The dead bugs in the house had been swept into a pile by Du Yue with a broom and placed into a bag. He Xing only took one look before looking away.

“Why did you come back so early today?” Du Yue was a little confused.

“The base was attacked by bugs. I was afraid that you would be scared, so I came back first.”

Du Yue could not contain her joy when she heard He Xing’s words.

However, his words also indicated that Du Yue’s previous guess was correct. A bug disaster had indeed occurred. “When I was in the courtyard just now, I noticed that they all came out from the ground.” Du Yue’s brows furrowed as she spoke. “Did the sudden rise in temperature cause them to resurrect and then climb out of the ground?”

The weather was extremely hot before, then it was extremely cold. Now, the temperature suddenly rose back up again. The fact that the bugs could still come out from the ground showed how terrifying their survival ability was! If all the bugs were so tenacious, then the bugs they were seeing now should only be a small portion. There would definitely be an endless stream of bugs after this.

Just the thought of that scene made one’s body go numb. “We have to find a way to cover up the ground in the courtyard. Otherwise, there’ll definitely be more bugs coming out,” Du Yue said.

“Do you have cement and sand in your space?” He Xing asked. “If not, I can only ask Captain Zuo to help me get some.”

Du Yue sighed helplessly. “I didn’t expect that I’d need to use these in the past, so I didn’t keep them.” She had never planned to build her own house, so she naturally would not store these things.
