Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse-Chapter 408: Surrounded by Bugs

And it seemed like the bug was doing it intentionally.

It knew how to avoid risks and assess the current environment, almost as if it had become sentient.

"Hurry up and climb up, it’s dangerous."

Actually, there was no need to say it, everyone already knew.

The half of the bug from earlier had already run off, and for all they knew, it had already squeezed through some crack.

Who wouldn’t be scared in front of such a defiant example?

The people above had also started to move, throwing down a rope.

"Quickly~"

Jhiang Yuan and Ye Mianmian also ran over to help. Thankfully, they had brought plenty of rope today, so climbing up was not too hard.

However, there was still a patient, which was quite troublesome.

The rope had been thrown down, and just as the people below had grabbed it, they hadn’t even started pulling yet.

Jhiang Yuan noticed tiny red specks starting to appear inside the previously dense pile of firewood.

Little spots crowded together, her cold sweat broke out in fear.

Pointing below, she shouted loudly, "Hurry, the bugs are coming~"

Right after she spoke, the people below looked down for a moment.

That single glance was enough to scare them to the point of wetting themselves, what on earth was this!

"My God, run, don’t let them touch you."

These bugs could burrow into the skin even through objects, utterly terrifying.

Song Yi also became tense, grabbing Jiang Yuan’s collar and starting to run to the side.

"Ah~"

"Help~"

Some people were already affected, even those who had grabbed the rope and climbed up a few steps.

They now lacked any resistive power, all of them fell down.

It was the same on Song Yi’s side, still gripping Jiang Yuan.

The other person had never seen such a scene before and was hindered by being dragged by the collar.

"Let go of me, I can run on my own."

"Shut up!"

Song Yi bellowed loudly, his voice very loud; Jhiang Yuan saw them reaching the edge.

She grabbed a nearby rope and ran over.

Ye Mianmian saw what she was doing and understood her intent, following to help rescue.

"Song Yi~"

She shouted, throwing down the rope, but there were bugs under their feet too, making it impossible for them to climb up.

Jhiang Yuan was beside herself with worry, her tears flowing out in an instant.

She wasn’t trying to cry, it was just that she couldn’t control her own tears.

Song Yi saw her anxious appearance and cracked a smile.

He turned on the ignition gun, and the flame tongue activated instantly.

He swept around his perimeter, and it indeed had an effect.

Some of the bugs had started to flee for their lives.

At the same time, some were burnt, but he didn’t linger for long, only serving as a warning.

Afterwards, those bugs would keep coming relentlessly.

Jhiang Yuan suddenly thought of something and quickly took off her backpack, quickly producing three ignition guns.

"Song Yi, catch~"

She threw them over, and the other person was very responsive, catching them instantly.

He handed them to Jiang Yuan, who looked touched for a moment.

"There’s more~"

As she spoke, she threw down two more.

Now each of them had two guns, even the Double Gun Old Woman couldn’t compare.

With weapons in hand, the two let loose and started attacking the bugs beneath their feet indiscriminately.

In some places, fires even started.

"Quickly, move this way~"

Jhiang Yuan had already taken shelter beside the ditch, beginning to guide them. If they could get here, pulling them up with the rope would mean safety.

The two didn’t dare to move too quickly, taking it step by step, ensuring safety before making a move.

Around them, fires had mostly started.

There were branches and some leaves around as well.

"Jiang Yuan, you go up first."

"You go first, I’ll cover our retreat," he said.

"Stop arguing~"

Song Yi was firm, simply insisting that Jiang Yuan be the first to climb up when they reached the rope.

"This time, you must go first."

Jiang Yuan didn’t argue; he had given his hopes to the other man.

"Stop fighting, the ignition gun will run out of air soon."

Jhiang Yuan was speechless, unsure whether to call them foolish or noble.

Even at this moment, they were still being polite.

"Hurry up~"

Song Yi grabbed the rope and wound it around his arm.

"Song Yi, you have to be careful!"

People above began to exert force, and Jiang Yuan was quickly pulled up.

It wasn’t particularly deep; perhaps they would have climbed up sooner if the two hadn’t been so self-effacing.

Jhiang Yuan took another rope and urged Song Yi to climb up quickly.

When the two met mid-air, Jiang Yuan was speechless.

If there were two ropes, what were those two doing earlier.

Soon, the survivor had escaped the depths of the deep ditch.

"Song Yi!"

Jhiang Yuan was truly terrified, and so was the other person as he embraced her upon reaching the top.

She didn’t push him away, having just experienced what felt like a parting from life and death.

His embrace was tight, as if trying to merge her into his bones.

Then, Song Yi quickly let go.

"I’m not sure if I’m clean, stay away from me."

So, he was worried about possibly having bugs on him.

If they hitched a ride up, it would be a disaster.

Jhiang Yuan, well-prepared, took out a bottle of disinfectant and sprayed it fervently.

After confirming several times that both were clean, they finally ceased.

The people who had gone down before them, apart from these two, were gone.

Now it’s even more horrific, with their bodies covered in both big and small red bugs.

Those with a fear of clusters would find this situation unbearable to look at.

"What do we do now?"

Clearly, the bugs here had matured.

With the recently added nourishment they were even more formidable.

If not handled promptly, it could be worse than at Half Moon Lake.

"Burn it, go, bring up all the gasoline."

With Song Yi’s command, everyone behind him started bustling.

The urgency of the situation here surpassed that of any other; it was severe.

In a second, they might come attacking.

As Jhiang Yuan observed the situation inside the deep ditch, she too was utterly speechless.

She hadn’t expected obstacle after obstacle in this bizarre world, and wondered when they would ever reach the end.

Second Master Teng had strongly discouraged everyone from coming here before. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Maybe he also knew something was lurking in the deep ditch.

Now with people gone, the mystery of the village deepened.

And it seemed an unsolvable one at that.

Just then, others had brought the gasoline down.

They needed to pour it directly across, as it was all going to be used anyway.

Another group came over, evenly distributing the liquid.

Once everything was prepared, everyone spread out.

"Ready? Ignite~"

At Song Yi’s command, everyone threw their matches down.

Flames instantly soared, and the bugs below became frantic.

They ignited separate fires, ensuring no escape for the creatures.

Noises of popping and crackling rose from below, the sound of bugs being incinerated.

The bottom of the deep ditch was lively, even increasingly so.
