'Boom — —'
The sound of a fighter jet swept through the air.
From the cockpit, one could see the scenery outside in a white glow …
The streets were covered with a thick fungal carpet, and all the vehicles and objects around were covered with mycelium. They extended along the walls of the buildings and gathered into a strange and huge fungal structure above the towering buildings.
This phenomenon spread from the Astral Gate in the center of the city. If one could still see a Void City at the edge, then the city no longer looked like a city at the center.
The original steel buildings now looked more like a huge fungal creature. The fungus covered almost every millimeter of the area. There was no longer any metal in this place, and it was replaced by a white plague.
About 30% of the city's citizens were saved, and the rest had turned into nutrients for the fungus here. But what the Void people did not expect was that in less than half a day after the reinforcements arrived, these citizens disappeared and were replaced by endless fungus.
"Attention, we will now launch a bombing."
The fighter jets in the sky lined up in a row and flew over the fungus-covered city. The bullets in the air once again fell like raindrops, flying towards the area covered by the fungus.
The general listened to the imam's advice and did not use large powerful bombs such as the type 78 bomb. Those bombs with powerful shockwaves would spread the fungus further, so they planned to use pure combustion to solve this problem.
'Boom — —!'
Dazzling flames erupted in the streets. The flames surged along the fungal carpet on the ground, and the entire city was suddenly filled with billowing smoke. The huge fungal structures also withered in the flames.
However. The pilots also noticed that some of the mushrooms rapidly expanded in the high temperature, and then suddenly exploded. A large amount of dust scattered with the explosion and rose into the sky with the thick smoke.
"They are using the flames to spread …" The pilots in the sky saw this scene and immediately reported to the general.
And the response they received was, "Don't worry about it so much, continue to burn them! Use that thing! "
Under the general's orders. A few fighter jets dropped special bombs, and these bombs flew into the sky filled with fungus and thick smoke. Then a large amount of 'fog' was released.
When the fog spread to a certain extent, this bomb also made a 'boom — —!' A huge fireball instantly covered the sky, and the extremely high temperature submerged the surrounding dust …
Under the general's orders, the fighter jets flew over the entire city. Almost all the roads in the city were burning. Fungi crackled under the flames, and the whole city was filled with a strange smell.
The thick smoke drifted in the air and flew out of the city with the wind. Even the nearby cities could smell the smell from afar.
The Voidfolk who had heard about the tragedy of the Astral Gate in other cities were now staying in their houses in fear. They kept their air filters running at maximum power and closed their doors and windows to prevent anything from happening.
As for the wealthier Voidfolk, they had already boarded private aircrafts and left.
The most tragic ones were the Voidfolk who were rushing about on the streets. Most of the Voidfolk had a lot of work to do, and this heavy workload made it impossible for them to rest in the face of danger. They could only pray as they continued to move their tired bodies.
Although there were no reports. However, the Voidfolk in the surrounding cities already knew that the city with the Astral Gate was burning fiercely.
At first, they regretted that the Astral Gate was not built in their own city, because it would have reduced their tourism income, but now they were very glad …
However, only the streets were burning, and the buildings in the city were not affected much.
Although the walls of the buildings around the streets were also burned by the flames. But its interior was almost undamaged, and a large amount of fungus was still growing in the houses.
Blowing down the buildings did not have much effect. Because the mycelium would still grow under the ruins of the buildings, and they could spread deep underground.
Although the ground of the city had long been covered by steel and cement, there was still a large amount of nutrient residue under the surface. The remains of the extinct creatures were now buried under the city's steel. If the fungus came into contact with the underground nutrients, it would spread wildly throughout the world, and then there would be no way to stop the fungus.
Therefore, this unit could not carry out any attacks that might allow the fungus to spread underground, and they had to burn it out bit by bit.
"Reporting, begin the mission."
After the fighter jets flew over, a large number of members of the Blaze Unit descended from the sky, landing on the roofs of the buildings or on the burned streets. They took the latest flamethrowers and entered the buildings, burning every room in the buildings with flames.
'Bang!' The door was forcefully slammed open, and a group of members of the Blaze Unit walked into a building called the 'Ultimate Market'.
The moment they opened the door, a white scene appeared in front of them.
There were a large number of shelves in the market, and these shelves were almost all tilted, but every shelf was covered with countless mycelium. In front of the team, there was a box with the words' Fusion Fried Eggs' written on it, and this box was full of mycelium. It had been opened, and a large number of cans were spilled outside.
"These fungi … use the food here as nutrients …" The team leader stepped forward and looked at the box and the scattered cans outside.
The openings of every can that fell on the ground were opened, and a large number of mushrooms grew in the openings. Although they were called 'fried eggs', they were actually not eggs, but a mixture of algae and some cultivated edible fungi, and seemed to be very 'appetizing' to the fungi.
The team leader looked carefully at a can and said, "But most of the food is sealed, how did they pry it open …"
"Ah —!!!" Before he could finish, a white figure suddenly jumped out from behind the shelf and pounced on his face.
"Ah ah!" The team leader, who was startled, threw a punch, and the strength of the armor made him instantly knock the thing to the ground. The team members behind him quickly stepped forward and shot pillars of fire at the thing that was knocked down.
"Ah ah ah ah!" The thing screamed as it slowly melted in the flames, but the team leader did not attack. He was staring blankly at the figure in the flames.
"Just now …" After waiting for the flames to finish burning, the team leader said, "Did you see this creature clearly?"
"Yes …" a team member said, "It looks … very similar to us, it seems to be …"
"I took a picture of it just now." Another team member pressed his hand on the helmet, and the other team members immediately received an image inside the helmet.
From this image, they could see how the team leader was attacked from behind, and they could clearly see what the thing that pounced on the team leader looked like.
Its body shape was exactly the same as a Void person, but it was very small, like the body of a child, and its body seemed to be covered in a layer of mycelium, and there were a large number of mushroom-like things growing on its back.
Even though its appearance was very strange, the team members all felt that … it might have originally been a Void person.
"Will these fungi infect us and turn us into one of them?"
Bang!
The moment one of the team members asked this question, a shelf in front of them collapsed, and behind the shelf appeared a …
Void person.
This time, the team members saw it more clearly. This Void person was covered in white mycelium, and there were some fungal structures growing all over its body.
The moment it saw the team members, it screamed strangely, and then … turned and ran away madly.
"It's running away!"
Seeing the 'fungal Void person' escape, the team leader immediately shouted, "Quick, go after it! "Catch it!" We need to study this thing to see what's going on! "
"Yes!"
A few of the team members immediately chased after it, but the creature was quite fast. It kept knocking down the shelves around it, and the fallen shelves stirred up a cloud of fungal dust. While covering its body, it ran into the depths of the building.
After chasing for a while, the team members found themselves in an empty space. There was nothing there, only a thin layer of mycelium covering the ground.
"Where is this? Where did that thing go? "
Now they were all confused, and they had completely lost track of the fungal Void person.
"This looks like a warehouse?" one of the team members said. "I saw the words on the door when I entered earlier."
"But where did the goods go? Could it be that … "
Before the team leader could finish, he suddenly saw the entrance was blocked by a large number of black shadows.
"They … they're all there!"
These black shadows were formed by the fungal Void people earlier … a dense 'wall of people'. They stared at the team members trapped inside the warehouse, and some strange noises came from their mouths.
"Could it be … those missing citizens were not eaten by the fungus …" the team leader said, "but turned into these things?"
"Woo!" Suddenly, a Fungus Voidfolk cried out and pounced over.
"Fire! Fire! "
The light of fire instantly shone inside the warehouse, and the group of fungal Void people at the front were instantly swallowed by the fire.
However, their companions behind them were completely fearless as they continued to charge forward against the flames. They continued to pour in through the entrance, and the flames of the Blazing Troops never stopped until their energy was slowly depleted … ….
