Chapter 88 The order gradually becomes chaotic(1/2)
[Outstanding Jinjiang Literature City] (including 6w nutrient solution plus update)
Looking at the dense and slender insect bodies and hammer-shaped tentacles facing him, You Xi's inner discomfort was no less than the discomfort when he first saw a giant moth.
The body shapes of these butterflies have not changed much, and their colors can be described as beautiful. But there are too many, and they are facing her at such a close distance. It seems that they are looking at her through the glass, as if... they are coming towards her...
For some reason, she actually felt hostility from a group of butterflies.
You Xi remembered the few wisteria petals she shot down in the afternoon. At this time, she recalled that she could not argue whether the falling petals were real petals or butterflies disguised as petals?
So, did they not only remember her, but also found her place to live in accordance with her breath?
Why in the afternoon, they didn’t react at all? Aren’t butterflies active during the day?
Could it be that mutations also change their living habits and become nocturnal animals like moths?
So, I lurked quietly during the day, and waited until the night before I came to seek revenge?
Wait - nocturnal sex?
You Xi suddenly thought of something, and for a moment, some clues were connected in her mind.
At night, silent creatures, large-scale poisoning incidents... She now boldly assumes whether the incident in the gymnasium will be related to butterflies?
She remembered that even before mutation, some butterflies were poisonous, but most of the more famous poisonous butterflies were divided into M and F continents. Such butterflies had a very poisonous scale and were highly toxic in their bodies. It is said that they could poison five or six cats.
Now, some butterflies have undergone mutation, not only bringing their poison, but also becoming smart, knowing how to lurk and sneak...
There are also the missing people in the community, which seem to be closely related to these butterflies.
However, after being poisoned, the people in the gymnasium were still in place and the people in the community were completely missing. The connection and difference between the two could not be found by her alone.
Maybe the matter in the gym has nothing to do with butterflies, but it should be done by similar creatures.
There are too many butterflies outside the glass, and this is the fifteenth floor. Even if she opens the window, she can't go out to deal with the butterflies. The butterflies can fly in as long as they find a gap.
Although it will not harm her parents, the end of the world has just begun. She doesn't want to turn her home into a battlefield. Moreover, the butterfly is so small, it seems to have become smarter. If one is hiding at home or dropping toxins, it will be hard to guard against.
Let's assume again that if these butterflies were coming for her, why didn't she come when she just came home in the afternoon and wait until it was late at night?
So the key question is, after this type of butterfly mutation, do you like night activities or have to go at night?
You Xi prefers the latter, and if it is the latter, you can find out the answer by just waiting for a few hours.
Therefore, she did not alarm the butterflies and quietly retreated from the floor-to-ceiling window. She took off her protective clothing and mask and threw it into the Star House warehouse. She went to the kitchen to make a large cup of coffee for herself, then took a box of cookies and prepared to wait on the sofa until dawn.
In addition to checking various news and videos online every day, she has been downloading information about plants and animals. However, there are too many animals and plants on the planet, and it takes a lot of time to download it.
A few hours passed quickly. When the second cup of coffee came to the bottom, the butterflies that had been lying outside the floor-to-ceiling window began to move, first a few, then a group of them, and finally all the butterflies left the glass and flew down the building.
There is about half an hour left before dawn.
You Xi also moved. She entered the star house and posted the note she wrote in the morning to the place where her parents could see it when they woke up.
The above briefly said that I should investigate something, so that they should not open any windows or open the door after they get up - no matter who knocks on the door, don't open it for the time being. If possible, it is best to stay in the star house before she comes back, which is the safest.
Afterwards, she put on her protective suit, walked out of the star house, and called the emergency rescue number.
She did not hide it and told the community that she accidentally broke the wisteria petals, butterflies would disguise themselves as wisteria flowers, and came to the door in groups to seek revenge at night, as well as her speculation about the death of collective poisoning in the gymnasium.
There is a lot of attention there and said that the rescue team will be dispatched immediately.
She also reminded the other party that it is unknown whether the butterfly is poisonous. It is best to wear protective clothing and gas masks all.
After hanging up the phone, she also took out a gas mask from the Star House Warehouse and put it on. After carefully checking, she quickly opened the door and left the apartment.
She checked the floor where their house was located, and the windows and security doors in the stairwell were closed, and there was no sign of butterflies invading.
She left a voice message to Xu Yan, briefly explained the situation again, and said that she was planning to go to the east gate to wait for the rescue team, which was a little further away from the Wisteria Flower Corridor, which was safer than the north gate.
She asked him to consider how to say this in the community's residents' group, mainly conveying several messages: First, try not to get close to wisteria flowers, nor do they deliberately destroy them, so as not to cause revenge.
The doors and windows must be closed tightly on the second night. The butterflies have the characteristics of nocturnal movement. As for how to comfort the residents, she believed that Xu Yan could do it herself.
A few minutes later, Xu Yan came to news that he and she went to the East Gate to wait for the rescue team members.
You Xi: If you don’t have a gas mask, it’s not safe to go there.
Xu Yan: Don't worry, I have a gas mask. I am a fan of the apocalyptic literature. After a tornado occurred in the suburbs of S City, I stocked up a lot of useful things according to the specifications. You wait for me in the lobby on the first floor, and I will come down soon.
Youxi: OK.
It was before six o'clock, and just dawn, the rescue team's car arrived.
A military jeep drove into the community and stopped in the open space in front of the small garden.
The rescue team got out of the car. They were wearing light chemical protective clothing, which was safer than the protective clothing on Yuxi and the others.
You Xi also stocked up such protective clothing. Not only did it stock lightweight, but it also stocked up heavy-duty sealed protective clothing, but it was not available in this environment now.
The rescue team leader was the same as last time. He looked much haggard than before, and there were fewer team members than last time. Four or five people, several people were holding flamethrowers, and one of them was holding an insect trap.
The man was an expert, and his catcher was improved. He could use a built-in blower to suck the insects into the back container while catching them, so as to ensure survival and not escape.
Everyone got off the car and put on gas masks. The rescue team also brought them gas masks. At this moment, they saw that they were fully armed and gave thumbs up to the two of them.
You Xi had already explained the point of the statement on the phone. The captain asked them to stay in place with one of the team members, and took the rest of the team members and experts to the wisteria flower corridor they signaled.
Their plan is to catch several butterflies first for research, and then...burn them with fire.
"Fire?"
The team member heard her question and thought that she had begun to believe that animals and plants were mutating like some people on the Internet today because the planet was driving humans away, and humans should not be enemies with animals and plants, etc. So he explained: "This is also impossible. There are too many butterflies. They are in residential areas and pose a threat to your survival."
"I'm afraid that you have too few people. This butterfly seems to have become smarter and will hold grudges. If you escape some..." You Xi did not completely object to the remarks online, but he did not completely agree with them, let alone priorities.
These butterflies have already set their sights on her. Even if the rescue team doesn't take action today, she will eliminate them all by herself. Otherwise, she and her parents will never be able to guard against unless they don't go out every day in the future.
Hearing that she was worried, the other party breathed a sigh of relief, and then revealed a message to her: this kind of butterfly is dormant during the day and even when awakened, he is very slow to react.
In fact, the news last night did not reveal all the information. The gymnasium incident was too horrifying. The person in charge of this matter set up an investigation expert team in the shortest time.
The expert team had already found a purple-blue iris bush in a corner outside the stadium yesterday afternoon. One of the experts was an insect expert and noticed something was wrong. Later, they came forward to carefully identify it and found that there were many butterflies hidden in the flower bush that were almost exactly the same as iris.
The experts captured butterflies and brought them back, and organized several insect experts to study together.
These mutated butterflies are dormant during the day, and it is difficult for ordinary people to tell whether they are flowers or butterflies, but they begin to wake up and become active at night, and even become extremely aggressive.
The scales on the butterfly's wings and the body contain highly toxicity. This poison comes with a paralysis effect and will cause the organism to die unknowingly in a coma...
Afterwards, the expert group cooperated with the hospital to compare the toxins extracted from the butterflies and the deceased, and found that it was indeed the same.
So those in the gymnasium all died of butterfly poison.
The only thing that puzzles the experts is that the people in the gym have been living in for several days, so why does butterflies suddenly attack humans?
And this doubt was answered on the phone call that You Xi called not long ago.
Knowing how to hold grudges will take revenge.
Although it is not clear what the people in the gym did offend these butterflies, the reason for their sudden attack on them should be here.
The team member said she was very lucky because the building in their community was very tight and the butterflies could not fly in, so nothing happened.
In front of their right, fire rose into the sky, and You Xi couldn't help but walk forward for a while.
The expert had successfully captured the sample and retreated to the periphery. The rescue team leader was leading the team members to form a circumambulation from several places, and thoroughly cleaned up the flowers and butterflies on the corridor.
Under the high temperature, the butterfly, which had originally returned to the dormant state, moved, but as described by the team member, the butterfly's reaction ability and flight speed were not as good as at night.
Not only that, the rhizomes of wisteria flowers also seemed to twist slightly in the flames.
The rescue team leader realized that something was wrong and ordered a few people to open the flames to the maximum immediately, speed up the burning speed, and clean up everything from flowers to vines to roots.
You Xi could feel the burning high temperature so far away, not to mention the butterflies and plants with almost zero defense capabilities.
After a moment, both the butterfly and the twisting rhizomes turned into ashes.
On this day, when the ashes of the flames dissipated and the sunlight fell on the soil on the corridor, sharp-eyed team members found several shriveled and charred corpses in their burned roots...
After investigation, the bodies were found that, except for the murderer who had committed the crime in the Union villa area, the rest were the people who had disappeared in the community.
As Xu Yan said, they had never left the community because they were all infected with butterfly toxins and developed hallucinations to approach the wisteria flowers. Then they were dragged by the vines of the wisteria flowers into the gap between the corridor and the wall, and were pulled by the roots and buried in the soil...
At noon, the city news reported the cause of the collective poisoning incident in the gymnasium. In order not to make people random speculations cause stronger panic, the official announced this mutant species that must be vigilant: the butterfly of the flower poison.
This kind of mutant butterfly is rare. Two known forms include wisteria and iris. The former has hallucinogenic effects, while the latter has paralysis effects and is extremely toxic.
They are in a companion relationship with the simulated plants, and neither butterflies nor flowers can be easily destroyed, otherwise they will attract revenge.
Later, the news hid the community name and the name of the person involved, and informed the butterfly incident in Youxi Community where they came to seek revenge.
The cause of the gymnasium incident was that someone privately picked some iris and wanted to decorate the boring living environment, but he did not expect it to attract such malicious revenge...
At present, there are other undiscovered butterflies in the city.
For a time, the Internet entries about the poisonous butterfly of flowers exploded again.
There are people saying anything online. Someone insulted the person who picked flowers privately and said he didn't know who it was. One person killed nearly two hundred people, and he was really a murderer! He was so brainless, even though he knew that many animals and plants had mutated, he still dared to pick flowers secretly!
Some people also say that the deceased is the most important thing, and no one likes such a tragedy. If you lose someone, just accumulate virtue...
But more people show fear and fear.
This fear and panic came to a peak in the next few days when some residents of the community lacked food at home, and the promised fresh food packages had not arrived.
To be continued...
