1684 A Swarm of Locusts
“Retreat! Evacuate immediately! Return to the outpost!”

The transport team had never expected to encounter a group of mutated forms here. The trucks were full of goods and there were not enough guards. They only had the most foundation combat strength.

Such a large swarm of mutated locusts suddenly appeared…

They couldn’t block it at all!

Chi! Chi chi chi!!!

Large groups of locusts rushed over and attacked the SUV that Midwell was in.

“Boom! Boom Boom!!!”

The mutated locusts used their bodies to slam against the windows continuously. Midwell stayed in the car, and a dense swarm of locusts instantly covered the windshield in front of him.

“Hurry up! Retreat! Return to the outpost area!”

Midwell urged the driver to get them out of this predicament.

The driver’s scalp immediately went numb. He used his memory to forcefully control the off-road vehicle to make a 180-degree turn on the spot and quickly escape!

The driver stepped on the gas pedal and drove the off-road vehicle to break through the area covered by the mutated locusts.

The mutated locusts attached to the windshield were gradually thrown away.

Had they successfully escaped?

The swarm of locusts didn’t seem to have any intention of chasing after them.

Midwell was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. Before he could heave a sigh of relief, he suddenly thought of something and quickly poked his head out of the window to look behind him.

D*mn it!

The off-road vehicle could escape, but the trucks transporting the supplies behind them would be in a dire situation!

They had heavy loads, and it would take time to turn the trucks around.

With a slight delay, the densely packed swarm of mutated locusts surrounded the trucks!

The flying locusts seemed to be very interested in the trucks transporting goods. They gathered around the trucks and kept hitting them with their bodies.

There were also compressed magicite cannons at the back of the transport trucks!

For a moment, there was a loud thud.

“Reinforcements! Quick, send reinforcements from the outpost!”

Midwell realized that something was wrong. His face turned pale as he shouted at the top of his lungs.

“Boom! Boom Boom!!!”

Before his subordinates could go offline to ask for help, the swarm of mutated locusts had already overturned a few trucks!

The compressed magicite cannon on the back of the truck also fell to the ground with a dull thud.

Midwell’s expression was terrifyingly gloomy.

The mutated locusts continued to attack the trucks for two minutes before they began to lose interest in the vehicles. Then, they left like a gust of wind.

The driver opened his mouth.

Left again?

It had been about two minutes since the attack.

The mutated locusts came and went off in a hurry, leaving only a mess.

Midwell said in a deep voice, “Quick! Drive over and take a look!”

The off-road vehicle returned to the trucks that were attacked.

A few trucks had already flipped over under the attack of the mutated locusts.
The driver hiding in the truck was not badly hurt, but the goods being transported were seriously damaged.

The compressed magicite cannon was a precise instrument. After experiencing a wave of impact and continuous impact, its surface was already full of holes and even shattered into pieces…

A repairman inspected the remaining magicite cannons and turned his head. His face turned green as he said, “The compressed magicite cannon has been severely damaged. It’s no longer usable. It needs to be repaired…”

F*ck!

Midwell was so angry that he was about to go crazy!

Why were they suddenly attacked by a group of mutated locusts?

He immediately thought of something and quickly turned around to shout at his subordinates, “Where are the people from Starfish Company?”

“They’re still at the outpost. When we left, they were still there. It looks like they’re still communicating with the higher-ups of the company.”

“Stop them! Make sure they stay! You can use whatever method! I must see them! Hurry up! Pack up all the parts and return to the outpost immediately! I repeat, immediately!”

The entire transport team once again began to move in a hurry.

Leaving the truck behind, Midwell took the lead and followed the SUV back to the outpost.

In a dense forest not far away, more than 20 masked players looked at Fana.

“Fana, controlling these creatures has consumed a lot of our strength. This will affect part of our plans tonight. Is it worth it?”

“Yes, I think it’s necessary.”

Fana retracted her gaze from the front and said, “Tell Fang Heng that the mission has been completed. The rest is up to him.”

…

At Outpost No. 6, the communication between Starfish Company’s team and the upper management of Obsidian Company was fruitless. Lu Yanlong was holding back his anger and was about to take the maintenance staff to load the car and leave.

“Mr. Fang, the company just talked to the management of the Obsidian Company. They said that the goods we want are listed on the Federation’s list of prohibited transactions and can’t be traded. They want us to exchange them with other items of equal value.”

“Tsk, the list is full of ordinary goods. Who wants them? We spent so much effort just for this trash?”

Lu Yanlong did not hide his displeasure.

This kind of secret transaction could not be seen in the light. There was no such thing as a contract at all.

They could only accept it.

The Obsidian Company was shameless, but Starfish Company needed to preserve their face.

Lu Yanlong was filled with righteous indignation along the way, but Fang Heng did not seem to care at all. He even asked his companions to pack up and prepare to leave. He could not help but feel a little strange.

This didn’t seem like Fang Heng’s style.

“Mr. Fang, we’re almost done packing. Are we leaving just like that?”

“Let’s go. Calm down. They’ll come back for us.”

Fang Heng was calm.

Lu Yanlong didn’t know what Fang Heng was thinking. He waved his hand at the engineers behind him in frustration.

“Let’s go, brothers.”

Just as they were about to leave, a player rushed over from the outpost and stopped in front of the off-road vehicle, forcing the group to stop.

“Friends of Starfish Company, please wait a moment.”

Lu Yanlong was in a bad mood and was in no mood to respond. He stuck his head out of the car window and said sarcastically, “What? And now you’re not letting us go? Is there a federal law that forbids us from leaving?”

“No, I’m afraid there’s a misunderstanding between us.” The supervisor in charge of the warehouse had a fawning smile on his face as he said, “Director Midwell will be back soon. He has repeatedly asked everyone to stay for the time being. He wants to talk to you personally.”

Lu Yanlong’s heart skipped a beat when he heard that. Could it be that there was still a chance for things to turn around?

He couldn’t help but look at Fang Heng.

Fang Heng shook his head subtly.

Lu Yanlong received Fang Heng’s signal and rejected, “Alright, stop. Can’t you see what time it is now? If we wait any longer, the mutated monsters will appear! Can you take responsibility if something happens to our people?”

“And I don’t think I have anything to continue talking with you guys about…”

“It’s enough to be fooled once. Is there any point in targeting a company?”

Lu Yanlong said as he prepared to drive off.
