I'm A Wasteland Giant

Chapter 28: Someone Underneath

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After the discussion, the team advanced again, heading for the police station. It didn’t take long for them to reach the entrance of the police station, only a short street away.

Like most other places, it was in a state of disarray, with even fragments of green uniforms scattered on the ground.

The electric gate of the police station had been knocked over by the creatures and was now lying flat on the ground.

The group exchanged uneasy glances. A sense of foreboding filled their hearts.

“Let’s go in and check it out!”

Du Gang, holding a sharp knife, moved to the front, closely followed by Chu Zixuan.

Once inside the compound, they found the ground littered with bullet shells among the debris and numerous pits.

Beyond that, a smell of gunpowder still hung in the air. It was obvious that a prolonged gunfight had taken place here.

The group stopped in the courtyard where the sunlight could reach.

Du Gang looked around, the silence was eerie, not a single sound was heard. He turned to Chu Zixuan, nodded, signaling him to use his mental power to scan around.

Upon receiving the instruction, Chu Zixuan closed his eyes and moved slightly every once in a while, changing directions to complete a full 360-degree scan.

As he finished the scan, his face had taken on a stern look.

Feeling a sense of grim foreboding, Du Gang broke the silence, “How’s it look?”

Chu Zixuan frowned, sighed, and slowly shook his head, “They must’ve fought the bugs last night. Their gunfire attracted a lot of them… the building is crawling with bugs!”

“How is this possible?”

Ji Zhiwen screamed, “They had guns! Real guns!”

The group felt a sinking disappointment. They thought that with guns and grenades, the police station would’ve been able to kill the creatures.

But now, not a single bug’s corpse could be found in the yard!

This meant that the guns and ammunition were not lethal to the bugs. They weren’t able to kill even a single one…

“Look!”

Suddenly, Chu Zixuan walked towards a pit, pointed at a green liquid, and said, “This green blood is the bug’s blood. Firearms should have an effect on them, they just missed their weak point…”

“The weak point?”

Du Gang remained silent. These creatures were incredibly resilient. Unless their heads were destroyed or the crystals in their brains were removed, they were practically invincible.

Considering their hard shells, even a bullet would probably get lodged inside without penetrating deep enough.

At this moment, the six of them felt dejected.

All they had wished was to gain some intel from the police station.

In their imaginations, the police station might have even established a counter-attack line.

However, reality proved that their hopes were too high. The situation here was even worse than at their school, where most of the bugs that came out of the spatial channel had left.

Thew couldn’t imagine the regnnnqe of the creatures far awav hearing the

sound of gunshots, most likely charging over in droves.

“What do we do now?”

Chu Zixuan, being the quickest to recover among them, was already starting to consider the next move.

Upon hearing his question, Du Gang let out a breath, collected his emotions, and resolutely said, “We go in and kill all these bugs!”

Years of peace had made them hold on to the illusion of safety, even in the face of an apocalypse.

But these bugs were a stark reminder of their new reality: Humankind was doomed, and there was no going back.

Suddenly, Chu Zixuan called for Du Gang to stop. ‘Wait, there’s movement from the bugs over there!”

He had only done a preliminary scan before and hadn’t inspected everything in detail. But recalling the situation, there indeed was an area that seemed off.

After scanning it again, he confirmed that in this one area, the creatures were piled on top of each other, moving occasionally.

Chu Zixuan moved a few steps closer. After his enhancement, he was now able to scan a spherical space within a range of fifteen meters.

After switching from linear scanning to spherical scanning, he suddenly stopped and then ran a few more steps to a spot near the entrance, only stopping there.

The other four just followed a few steps behind and then stopped, choosing to stay in the sunlight.

However, Du Gang stayed beside Chu Zixuan without ever stopping, protecting him while asking, “What’s going on?”

“People!

Chu Zixuan looked at him excitedly and quickly said, “There are peopleunderground, more than a dozen!”

“What?” Du Gang exclaimed, looking at him in disbelief.

“Yes, there are people underground. I saw them; they are hiding underneath!”

Listening to Chu Zixuan who pointed to the ground and excitedly said, “The air-raid shelter, it must have been built to deal with air raids!”

“That’s great!”

The other four also got excited, “Let’s save them!”

Du Gang nodded, “I’ll go in with Chu Zixuan while you guys stay outside and alert us if anything happens.”

After saying this, he and Chu Zixuan exchanged glances and proceeded into the building, one leading, the other following.

But they weren’t too worried; they had previously run tests inside a building that housed four bugs.

At that time, Du Gang suppressed a bug and made it struggle and cry out frantically, but this still did not wake up the other bugs.

This showed that these creatures hated sunlight and detested the day. Except for life-and-death situations, they would hardly wake up.

This level of hibernation was almost like a deathlike sleep!

Upon entering the building, Du Gang and Chu Zixuan began their bug extermination, Du leading, Chu following just like they had planned.

Only when they were inside did Du Gang truly understand what Chu Zixuan had meant by “The building is crawling with bugs”.

The entire lobby was densely packed with bugs. Some were even stacked atop one another, leaving no place for a foot to land.

“Let’s start!”

Du Gang’s clothes instantly tore as his body swelled to a towering four meters in height. He quickly suppressed one of the creatures and then said to Chu Zixuan.

In the beginning, Du Gang was the one who handled most of the crystal extractions. But as time went on, he realized that Chu Zixuan’s extraction speea surpassea ms.

So, they agreed: Du Gang would be in charge of controlling the creatures, keeping them from flailing aimlessly, while Chu Zixuan would use his mental power to extract the crystals.

With this division of labor, their efficiency increased dramatically, they were now capable of killing a creature the instant it woke up.

“Sizzle”Sizzle-

Working together, they progressed rapidly. The creatures were barely able to squeal before they were killed. It didn’t take long for them to rid the area around the basement entrance of bugs..
