Chapter 67: Rainbow-Winged Louse
"Attention."
Luo Yan picked up the communicator and said on the public channel, "The third and fourth floors of the waiting hall have Giant Beast Parasites."
Zeng Shan’s voice immediately sounded, "Giant Beast Parasites are in this place?"
"What do these bugs want hiding here?"
Luo Yan didn’t know what these parasites wanted, but knew they needed to be cleaned out, or the camp couldn’t be used here.
Wanting to take the easy way out, he fired his mecha towards the waiting hall.
But that would destroy the waiting hall.
Besides, it would make too much noise and reveal the camp’s location.
Attracting giant beasts or drawing attention from other teams.
It would all be more trouble than it’s worth.
So in the end, there was only one way left.
Luo Yan picked up the communicator and said, "Li Bohang, let’s each take a team to clear out the parasites on those two floors."
"Alright," Li Bohang agreed.
Shortly after.
Luo Yan and Li Bohang led their own teams into the waiting hall.
Zeng Shan activated his mecha, just in case.
Inside the waiting hall.
The dim light made the once bustling hall seem eerily quiet with no power supply.
The hall’s facilities were mostly damaged, from the large screens displaying train information to the seats for travelers to rest.
Everything turned into trash and junk.
There are countless skeletons here too.
Skeletons lay everywhere.
At each checkpoint, the skeletons piled up like mountains.
On the ground.
Newspapers, magazines, suitcases, clothes, shoes, daily necessities, cosmetics, phones, laptops, tablets, and so on.
The ground was littered with all kinds of items, filled with a sense of decay.
Luo Yan, who had lived on the surface for three years, was doing fine.
The other students.
Including Li Bohang.
Seeing so many skeletons, everyone’s faces looked very upset.
Some students even covered their mouths with their hands and kept gagging.
Good thing these bodies have been dead for a long time.
All the flesh has rotted away.
Otherwise.
The waiting hall is not only depressing, but also filled with a nauseating smell.
The two teams carefully navigated through the skeletons, afraid of making any noise.
And attracting the attention of the parasitic swarm above.
Luo Yan always used his ‘Illusion Breaking Eye’ to watch the parasitic swarm above.
Just then, someone accidentally stepped on a can, causing a loud ‘clang’ to echo through the quiet hall.
Luckily, at that moment, a thunderstorm started outside, covering up the sound of the can.
Luo Yan suddenly looked over at the student.
The student shrunk back, afraid to make eye contact with Luo Yan.
"Be careful."
After warning him, Luo Yan gestured to separate from Li Bohang’s group.
The two teams explored upwards from different staircases.
When they reached the third floor.
Luo Yan led the team deep into the area.
Soon, in the waiting hall on the third floor, they saw some small parasites the size of puppies.
These bugs clung to pillars, human bones, and walls.
Completely still.
They had pointy heads, round bellies, smooth back plates, and three pairs of limbs at the front.
They slightly spread out some wings as thin as cicada wings, but these wings were colorful and dreamlike.
If it weren’t for the gray glow representing living organisms in Luo Yan’s vision, along with a halo of vitality next to the gray light.
Luo Yan almost thought those bugs were dead.
However, every so often, the bugs would turn their heads 180 degrees.
When Luo Yan turned around, he could clearly see that the bugs all had faces on top of their heads.
However, these were obviously not the common parasitic bugs, Human-faced Demodex, found in ‘Flower City’.
Instead, they were Feather Insects that were more commonly found on giant beasts.
At that moment.
The communicator in his ear rang out with Li Bohang’s voice, "Everyone, be careful. These are Rainbow-winged Lice."
"They fly quickly, and as they fly, their wings scatter colorful powder."
"That powder is a nerve toxin that paralyzes creatures but does not kill them."
"Next, you will become their food."
"It can also be preserved for a long time."
"The "Rainbow-winged Lice" is afraid of fire, so you can use flames to deal with them."
"However, be careful of causing a dust explosion if they scatter too much powder."
Dust explosion?
Luo Yan looked around and quickly saw a row of closed windows.
Next, he and Li Bohang came up with a simple battle plan.
While waiting for Li Bohang’s team to be in position, Luo Yan used the ‘Illusion Breaking Eye’ to mark the number and locations of the parasites on this layer.
And shared the information with his team.
Soon, Li Bohang’s team was in place.
The two captains counted down, and gunshots rang out on the third and fourth floors simultaneously.
Parasite cleaning operation, begin!
The battle begins.
In Luo Yan’s team.
Two snipers, following Luo Yan’s instructions, prioritize cleaning up the parasites in the distance.
The ‘Rainbow-winged Lice’ attached to pillars or lying on bones didn’t even have time to react before their heads exploded into mush, along with what they were attached to.
Several students next to Luo Yan aimed at parasites closer by, using rapid-fire mode to shoot the bugs into pieces.
Luo Yan also started shooting.
However,
He aimed at the windows on this floor.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
With a powerful impact, the window shattered open.
The outside was hit by a fierce wind.
As the air currents rushed in, keeping the indoor air circulating, reducing the chances of a dust explosion.
After some parasites were sneakily eliminated by humans.
The remaining Rainbow-winged Lice had already taken off.
Just like Li Bohang said.
These insects are very fast.
Luo Yan couldn’t even see their movements clearly.
They could only capture a vague shadow.
While flying at high speed, the ‘Rainbow-winged Louse’ wings scattered colorful powder.
They created a beautiful and dreamy ‘mist’ in the air.
But it was a deadly poison mist.
However.
Luo Yan and others were already prepared.
When they heard the parasite’s wings flapping, two students had already made hand seals.
Using level 5 mystical art: Empty Wall!
So, an invisible barrier appeared in front of Luo Yan’s team.
The poison powder sprinkled by the Rainbow-winged Louse was all blocked by an invisible barrier.
This allowed the students inside the barrier to shoot at the parasitic insects flying all over without any worries.
Although those things flew fast, they couldn’t escape the continuous crossfire, and soon one by one they fell down.
It looked like the three layers of parasitic insects were almost cleaned up.
Suddenly, Luo Yan heard Li Bohang’s exclamation in his ear, "Not good, they flew into the ventilation shaft."
The next second.
Waiting hall, third floor.
Behind Luo Yan’s team, a ventilation shaft grille suddenly fell down.
Then a buzzing sound came from inside.
A "Rainbow-winged Louse" flew out and quickly dove towards the students on the ground!
