"About the Mysterious Giant Creature in Northeast China, and a Mosquito that Saved Humanity!"
A female college student typed out this line as the title, but then felt dissatisfied and deleted it one by one.
"Tongyu, are you still struggling with summarizing our adventure?" Her roommate walked into the dormitory and saw the scene of the female college student sitting in front of her laptop, furrowing her brows as she deleted text.
"You wouldn't believe it anyway!" Ye Tongyu scowled at her roommate and then continued typing angrily.
But she also knew that their adventure on the border of Northeast China was really as exciting as a movie plot, perhaps even too exciting for others to believe.
After returning to the tranquility of Shanghai and resuming her college life, Ye Tongyu couldn't shake off the experience for a long time.
The only strange thing was that after the two mentors reported the incident and contacted the media, there was no follow-up!
And both mentors separately called her, instructing her not to attempt to contact the media herself.
But Ye Tongyu was a student at the School of Journalism, and her future career goal was to become a reporter. Keeping such excellent news to herself felt almost sacrilegious!
Moreover, for some reason, every time she rested, she would think of the 'giant mosquito' that supposedly saved them several times!
Mr. Lin had mentioned that there was a very large mosquito that flew past her captor during her moment of danger, as if deliberately distracting the captor's attention.
Although she was subsequently captured, she was still very grateful to this giant mosquito, whether it was intentional or not, for saving her once.
And the student from the School of Life Sciences, the heroic young man named Zhang Shiming, had also said that he had been helped by that mosquito more than once. When he was entangled with two captors, the mosquito seemed like an intelligent comrade, always helping him out of crises. Otherwise, he would have surely been captured as well!
As for Ye Tongyu herself, she had been saved by that giant mosquito once during a crisis when she was being pursued by one of the henchmen with a lecherous gaze!
Once could be considered a coincidence, but everyone being saved by this mosquito at least once didn't seem like a coincidence anymore. Could that giant mosquito really be intentionally helping them?!
This idea had been lingering for a long time, so Ye Tongyu wanted to describe it.
Traditional media wouldn't do, but what about putting it online? After all, there were so many false news stories on the internet every day, adding one more wouldn't hurt, right?!
That was Ye Tongyu's idea.
Bang! Just as Ye Tongyu was organizing her thoughts and preparing to continue typing, the dormitory door was suddenly thrown open!
The slightly sharp voice of Tingting reached Ye Tongyu's ears.
"Miss Genius, Miss Beauty! How come you didn't tell me when you came back?"
Ye Tongyu's expression changed, but this time there was no trace of fear.
She just calmly shifted her gaze to the girl who had entered from the dormitory door.
After the life-and-death experience in Northeast China, Ye Tongyu was no longer afraid of Tingting's blackmail. Compared to those armed men from Northeast China, this girl was not scary at all!
Maybe next, she could ask Tingting to compensate her for some mental damages?
Even if she really called someone...
Could she ask that seemingly powerful classmate, Zhang Shiming, to help her?!
Thinking of that big boy, Ye Tongyu smiled faintly.
The next day, an article titled "The Mysterious Giant Creature of Northeast China, and the Legendary Adventure of Our Group" began to appear on certain forums.
No one knew whether this bizarre article would be regarded as a joke, forgotten after being read, or whether it would spark some discussions as a curious anecdote.
Some things always have a fermenting time. When the time comes, they will slowly reveal their true face!
The characters in the story happening in Shanghai were completely unaware of what was going on in the Northeast region.
They were facing a more violent scene!
The protagonists of Shanghai had returned, but for the people in the factory, their perilous situation had just begun.
Bang!
A bullet hit the factory wall, raising a cloud of dust!
Northeast Wild Tiger, sitting in the office of the factory, immediately stood up in alarm from his restless state.
He quietly stood behind the curtain, peering cautiously outside.
Snap!
Just as he was looking out, a bullet flew directly towards his face!
Crack!
Northeast Wild Tiger saw the bulletproof glass in front of him instantly showing signs of fragmentation!
There was a bullet stuck in the bulletproof glass, and from where the bullet was stuck, cracks resembling a spider web spread across the glass!
Startled, he stumbled backward!
"Young man, got a scare, huh? I've told you not to show up near the window. Don't do it again next time! The window won't withstand a second sniper shot!" came the calm voice of the addict over the intercom.
Northeast Wild Tiger swallowed hard and quickly rolled away from the window.
Bang! Bang!
Intense gunfire erupted outside.
Later, the voice of the addict came through the intercom again.
"Alright, this wave of five people has been taken care of again. Send some food for the men who came with me! It's been a while since we've done this, and I'm a bit tired. Age catches up, you know..."
Incredible!
Northeast Wild Tiger was almost jumping with excitement.
This senior addict he had brought in had wiped out four waves of five-person squads.
All by himself! It was said that those opponents were top teams in the country, and some of them were specially selected soldiers, disguised as retirees, sent by certain big shots to participate in the mission!
But even such formidable opponents were no match for the senior addict!
Northeast Wild Tiger was sincerely delighted that he had managed to persuade this senior to become his partner.
"Boss, here's some water for you. I've already arranged for someone to bring food for the senior addict," said the man with glasses, handing a cup of water to Northeast Wild Tiger.
"Thanks..." Northeast Wild Tiger took the cup of water and was about to drink to calm his nerves.
"Wow!"
A cry of surprise came from the second workshop, causing him to drop the cup to the ground!
Without further thought, Northeast Wild Tiger dashed out of the office.
"What's going on?" The man with glasses looked oddly at his boss's retreating figure.
The first-floor hall of the second workshop.
This was where the pipeline was connected, and a ventilation fan was installed here. If the workshop operated properly, the fan would constantly draw air from the underground world and send it to the boiler on the second floor.
The boiler would then undergo special treatment to extract black liquid from the underground air.
Humans couldn't directly use this black liquid; it needed to undergo chemical processing in the first workshop and be mixed with certain drugs to transform into 'antibacterial peptides,' a purplish-red liquid with almost half the symptoms beneficial to humans!
Some people had already dubbed this liquid as 'water of life.' However, it was so precious that only big shots could easily get their hands on it. Even the slightly wealthier middle class could only obtain it through certain means, paying a hefty price!
A bottle could be priced at
millions, making it practically priceless!
Otherwise, why would a top-tier killer like the addict be bought and used by Northeast Wild Tiger for a few bottles of such stuff?
And now, with the boiler explosion, the factory would have to stop production for a while. The loss incurred by the daily halt in production was not just money, but also the anxious hearts of many big shots for the lack of their precious liquid!
Now, repairmen were urgently repairing the damaged pipes and boilers caused by the explosion amidst the incessant gunfire, but they couldn't work fast enough!
The earlier cry of surprise came from the mouths of these repairmen who were located in the second workshop.
"What's happening?!" Northeast Wild Tiger's heart trembled as he ran.
The first time they found this factory, he remembered it very clearly. At that time, he and five or six brothers had entered the ruins of the factory.
But in the ruins, there were three or four extremely large creatures that resembled wasps hovering!
Especially one of them, a purple-colored fellow, had bitten to death one of Northeast Wild Tiger's brothers as soon as they appeared!
Northeast Wild Tiger fired his pistol, but the purple wasp was only pushed back by the bullets, with no effect!
In the end, it was only when its wings were hit and pierced through that the purple wasp had to scurry into the already ruptured and rusted pipeline to enter the space below the pipes.
Actually, Northeast Wild Tiger's pistol was already out of bullets. If the opponent had continued to attack them, it would have been Northeast Wild Tiger's side that was wiped out for sure!
Could it be those things again?!
Northeast Wild Tiger didn't know. The so-called wasps were actually purple mosquitos from the underground world. These purple mosquitos couldn't stay on the surface world for long. Perhaps at that time, they appeared on the surface world just to conduct a routine inspection of their 'territory,' or maybe to change their diet and catch some food from the surface world before returning.
But this time, was it those giant mosquitos again?!
The answer was naturally negative!
In the second workshop, a huge mosquito was causing chaos!
Buzzing!
Four or five repairmen held tools and iron bars, looking at the monstrous creature flying in the air, resembling an enlarged version of a mosquito, wanting to attack but not daring to!
It was a creature that looked like a mosquito magnified hundreds or even thousands of times.
Just now, a pipe repairman had stuck his head into the pipe, spinning one of the screws.
This pipe repairman looked at the dark space below and couldn't understand why this seemingly bottomless pipe led to where.
He even worried that if he accidentally fell in, would he disappear just like that!
While the pipe repairman was feeling anxious.
A creature that seemed to crawl out of the depths of hell, with a pair of faintly glowing compound eyes, flapped its wings and made a buzzing noise as it flew up from below the pipe!
The pipe repairman heard a slight sound, and when he looked up, the huge mosquito had already appeared in front of him!
It was only about thirty or forty centimeters away, close enough for him to see the cold, faintly glowing compound eyes on the other side!
