Doomsday: Humanity shrinks 100 times

Chapter 7 Giant Black Ant

Lu Yuning ate six grapes in a row before stopping.

Then he looked down, thought for a long time, and gave up the idea of jumping down directly. He honestly climbed down the tree trunk again.

In fact, he felt that now that his strength had increased so much, he should not die if he fell from the air. However, it was just his guess. A height of more than one meter seemed as high as dozens of floors to him now, which was really scary.

He climbed down obediently and saw that several grapes had been pushed together by three people.

The four of them looked at the food in front of them, drooling, their morale higher than ever.

However, at Lu Yuning's suggestion, the group decided to transport the grapes out before eating them.

Lu Yuning had already thought about the problem of transporting grapes in advance, so the passage was specially made into a circle, and a few small grapes were specially selected for easy transportation.

Four people each took a grape, and after two trips, they pushed all the grapes out.

Looking at the fruits lying in the middle of the cement road, the four of them couldn't help themselves any longer. After Lu Yuning cleaned the grape skins, the three of them picked up the grapes like hungry tigers and started to eat them. Although Zhang Xinyue was also very hungry, as a girl she still had to maintain her image.

More than ten minutes later, Zou Yunxin lay in the middle of the road and burped contentedly, without caring about his image at all. Wu Xiao also lay on the ground with a look of satisfaction.

Lu Yuning and Zhang Xinyue were a little more reserved and just sat on the ground.

The grapes not only gave them a full meal, but the water in the grapes also solved their thirst problem.

This was their first meal since the end of the world, and their happiness index skyrocketed.

After eating and drinking, the four of them started chatting again.

"What should we do with the rest?" Wu Xiao asked.

"The weather is not so hot now, so it should be able to be stored for a while, right?" Zhang Xinyue said.

"Leave three for eating in the next few days, and see if the rest can be made into raisins. If possible, we will go get some more later." Lu Yuning said, telling him the plan they had thought of earlier.

"Why not move the shelter here?" asked Zou Yunxin.

"Let's not do that. There are too many bugs around here." Lu Yuning shook his head.

There were still 5 grapes left, so they decided to work harder and move them all back.

One grape could feed the four of them for two days.

In fact, if a grape this big is stored in a good environment, it will be fine to eat it for more than ten days, but you have to consider the problem of food spoilage.

Except for Zhang Xinyue, the other three pushed a grape each and walked towards the shelter. Fortunately, the cement road was flat enough, so transportation was not too difficult.

Lu Yuning thought about it and felt that if there was time, it would be necessary to make a means of transportation.

The three of them were exhausted, but they finally pushed the grapes back to the shelter before dark.

Lu Yuning got some materials together temporarily and wrapped the grapes in them. After doing all this, he was finally exhausted and fell asleep in the shelter.

Fortunately, the shelter was built big enough at the beginning, and now with one more person, it is barely enough and does not need temporary expansion. The second day of the apocalypse passed in busyness.

Early in the morning, Lu Yuning was awakened by a scream. He quickly got up and ran outside.

"Be careful, you two. If you can't defeat it, try to lure it away!" Zhang Xinyue shouted. Lu Yuning saw the situation clearly at a glance, mainly because the enemy was too conspicuous.

A huge ant covered in black was rushing towards Wu Xiao and Zou Yunxin in front of it with great momentum, its two large pliers-like teeth constantly pinching them.

Wu Xiao held Lu Yuning's rapier in his hand, hid behind Zou Yunxin's shield, and stabbed the big black ant randomly. However, the rapier did not hurt the ant's head, but instead angered it, and it kept biting Zou Yunxin's shield.

The shield was made of just some plant stems, and its defensive power was not very good. It was only good enough to block mosquitoes, but under the impact of the big black ants, it was quickly broken into several holes, and the two men were defeated.

Zhang Xinyue turned pale with fright.

Lu Yuning looked at the situation calmly. They should be able to hold on for a while. He quickly ran to the side of the road, found a stone on the ground, and then with a thought, a small piece of the stone broke off. Lu Yuning's face lit up with joy.

He guessed correctly. After using his supernatural powers extensively yesterday, he could now barely process the stone materials. It was just that the processing speed was a bit slow, but it didn't matter. He only needed a small piece. He re-condensed the small gravel and made it into the shape of an axe.

He found a slightly harder plant and made an axe handle, then fused the two items together, and an ugly little stone axe appeared in his hand.

Wu Xiao and Zou Yunxin were a little exhausted, but when they saw Lu Yuning, they were suddenly happy and immediately became braver. Zou Yunxin swung the tattered shield and hit the ant directly on the head.

But the effect was minimal. The ant just shook its antennae and rushed towards the two again.

Lu Yuning played with ants a lot when he was a child. He knew that the body of an ant was very hard, and only the abdomen was relatively soft. However, even if it was injured, it would not be fatal. The weak point was the connection between the head and the body, so this was his purpose.

He quickly approached the big black ant, and when it attacked them again, he seized the opportunity, used all his strength, and chopped at its neck, hitting it accurately.

The ant's head fell off, but its body was still struggling wildly, and its big teeth kept waving in its mouth. After struggling on the ground for a while, the two parts of its body became completely motionless.

Wu Xiao and Zou Yunxin breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhang Xinyue also hurried over with tears in her eyes.

"Hehe, it's okay, don't worry." Zou Yunxin comforted, but he was very happy in his heart.

Lu Yuning roughly understood the situation. It should be Zhang Xinyue who first discovered the ants and attacked her, but was stopped by Zou Yunxin. Then Wu Xiao, who rushed over after hearing the noise, also joined the battle.

As for the source of the ants, it should be caused by those grapes. It seems that we need to deal with it as soon as possible.

Alas, there are more and more things to do, Lu Yuning sighed, and can only do them one by one.

He sorted out his thoughts.

At present, the problems of food and water have been solved, but it is only temporary, especially water. This is a difficult problem. If there is no other solution, we can drink river water. Before that, we need to filter it. Although it cannot kill bacteria, it can be of some use.

There's also the issue of water for daily use. You can't just keep not washing your face, right? Lu Yuning felt a little sad watching the three people looking so dusty and dirty.

Then the shelter also needs to be reinforced. There may be rats nearby. Their current shelter is almost paper-made and can only keep out small insects.

Weapons and equipment also need to be upgraded, and the shields made previously were also destroyed by the giant black ants.

The next thing is what to do with these grapes. We need to isolate the smell to prevent more ants from coming.

There is another problem. Lu Yuning learned that Zhang Xinyue was attacked mainly because she needed to find a place to relieve herself. This problem also needs to be solved. After all, no one wants to be urinated when suddenly a big ant rushes over. Should they run or not?

Oh, there are really a lot of things to do, I can only deal with them one by one, Lu Yuning thought to himself.
