The insects in my house are dragons.

Chapter 22 Bloodshed!

Blue River Cultivation Base.

Yun Che planned to go to the warehouse to buy some food suitable for Kong Kong to eat at employee prices to enrich its nutritional intake.

However, he stopped when he passed through the quarantine zone.

Therefore, he heard some noises coming from inside the quarantine zone, like... something hitting the iron gate, or like some kind of metal being struck.

"grumble?"

What's wrong?

It popped out of the collar of the clothes.

"No, it should be a pet shedding its skin," Yun Che shook his head and said.

Yesterday, the animals in the quarantine area were anesthetized to repair the anesthesia system, and they should have recovered by now.

"grumble?"

Shedding skin? Why is there such a commotion?

Kongkong blinked.

In its mind, isn't shedding skin just... taking a nap, then waking up and peeling off the old skin?

Upon hearing this, Yun Che chuckled lightly, "You think everyone's skin peeling is as simple as you do?"

Take the axolotl as an example; their molting process is much more difficult than that of the pufferfish.

Not only do you need to bite and tear off the old skin that's stuck to the new skin, but you also need to make sure there's no residue left.

Because newly grown skin is very fragile, it is painful to peel off the old skin, especially in corners that are difficult to reach with your limbs. You may need to use something like a tree or a wall to reach it.

Furthermore, the recent continuous sunny and dry weather has made it more difficult for axolotls to molt.

After all, even with manual humidification, there is a difficult adjustment process.

Bang—bang—

The commotion inside the quarantine zone is getting louder and louder.

Yun Che frowned slightly.

Why does this commotion make it sound like they're going to demolish the quarantine zone?

After a slight hesitation, Yun Che took out his phone and tentatively called the person in charge, Lan Xiangyao.

The phone rang for a while before it was finally answered.

"Hello, who is this?" Lan Xiangyao's voice came from the phone.

However, the sound on the other end of the phone was somewhat noisy, and it seemed to be accompanied by the roars of some kind of creature.

Before Yun Che could speak, Lan Xiangyao said again, "Tidal Salamander, Water Blade!"

Clearly, this wasn't said to Yun Che, but rather he was giving instructions.

Is Lan Xiangyao fighting?

"Feed?" Lan Xiangyao asked again after giving the order.

Yun Che realized what was happening and asked, "Sister Yao, are you busy?"

"A-Che?" Lan Xiangyao hesitated for a moment before recognizing Yun Che's voice.

"It's me..."

"It's alright, go ahead. Tidal Salamander, one more time, Water Blade!"

Since Lan Xiangyao had said so, Yun Che no longer hesitated and said in the fastest and most concise way, "The commotion in the quarantine zone is not right."

"Quarantine zone?" Lan Xiangyao was taken aback.

"I have something to do here. A group of black beetles have inexplicably appeared on the riverbank, and we are currently cleaning them up."

Black beetle?

Is this an attempt to "invade" the breeding base?

However, considering the strength of Lan Xiangyao and the combat personnel in the breeding base, as well as the strength of the Black Beetles, Yun Che doesn't need to worry about them.

"I'll send someone over right away. You go to the entrance first to check the situation, and be careful!"

"But Sister Yao, I don't have permission..."

The quarantine area is divided into an outer garden-like temporary free-range area and an inner single-room quarantine area.

He was outside the courtyard, and could only hear noises coming from inside the building, but couldn't see anything.

"You already have it. I added it for you after Dr. Niu finished speaking yesterday," Lan Xiangyao interrupted.

The pets in the quarantine area are mostly molting and growing, which means that the Blue River Breeding Base has invested a lot of resources in their cultivation, and these are all valuable assets.

Listening to Lan Xiangyao's words, Yun Che walked to the sliding door and swiped his identity card.

Sure enough, the door opened.

As we approached the isolation room, the activity inside became even more noticeable.

Yun Che hesitated for a moment before releasing the power of Everlasting.

However, because his Everlasting Power is at a rudimentary stage, his range of perception is limited.

He only felt...

There seemed to be a six-horned axolotl at the entrance; it was in very poor condition, and its emotions included pain, anger, and a plea for help.

Ok?

The pets in the quarantine area are fighting?

As the axolotl's aura grew weaker and weaker, Yun Che knew he had to do something.

"Chirp..." Kong Kong crawled out of his clothes, perched on his shoulder, his expression serious, ready to fight at any moment.

Swipe.

Open the door.

When the door to the internal isolation area opened, Yun Che, who was standing at the door, froze upon seeing the scene inside.

"Chirp!" Kong Kong's expression also turned solemn at the same time.

Before it, in front of Yun Che, was a long corridor with individual isolation rooms on both sides.

But in the corridor at this moment...

The ground, walls, and even the ceiling were covered with black beetles of all sizes—black beetles!

There were also glaring crimson bloodstains, mixed with black shell fragments and a viscous, unidentified black liquid.

And... the remains of some pets!

Some of the metal doors to the cubicles were already open.

You can also hear painful groans coming from inside, as well as the dense, gnawing sounds, which are chilling.

The corridor of the entire quarantine area was filled with a pungent smell, a mixture of fishy, ​​foul, and putrid odors from the mud.

Yun Che's stomach suddenly clenched, and a wave of acid surged up his throat.

He gritted his teeth and forced himself to suppress the nausea in his heart.

"How is it?" Lan Xiangyao's voice came from the phone. She had already sent people over, but it would take time for them to get there.

Yun Che didn't have time to explain. He put away his phone, immediately took out the healing ointment, and applied it to the hideous wounds on the dying axolotl at the door to stabilize its condition.

At the same time, the power of Tokiwa is used to soothe its emotions.

However, when the door opened.

Some of the black beetles that were relatively close had already noticed them.

With a series of "clicking" sounds as the joints collided, the black beetle, seemingly in a bloodthirsty frenzy, charged forward!

"Empty!"

"grumble!"

The little guy bumped its head and flicked its tail, sending the two nearest black beetles flying away.

After quickly treating the axolotl's injuries, Yun Che glanced at the narrow corridor in front of him.

There are many black beetles, but this narrow space... is actually quite suitable for empty space to play freely.

I glanced again at the switch on the wall next to me.

You can withdraw at any time if things don't go well.

Hearing the groans and chewing sounds coming from inside the room, I made up my mind!

With a way out and the advantage of the terrain, we can put up a fight!

"Spit silk onto the walls, the floor, and the ceiling!" Yun Che commanded.

Without hesitation, Kongkong immediately spat out four mouthfuls of insect silk, which were then spread out in different directions along the corridor.

Although these silk threads cannot stop the black-shelled beetles from moving forward, they can slow them down!

The fact that the first two black beetles were swatted away did not frighten them; instead, it made them even more ferocious.

"Sizzle—!!!"

The shells of a large number of black beetles trembled, emitting angry hissing.

Bang! Bang! Bang—

Facing the black beetle charging up again, Kong Qi's momentum was not weak at all, and his attacks were fluid and swift.

"Dragon Dance!"

The rhythm of a heartbeat, the dance of a ritual.

The empty space's momentum surged wildly.

But from a corner deep in the corridor, a particularly clear and loud roar came from somewhere else.

"Sizzle!!!"

The first few black-shelled insects that were swatted away, which should have been unconscious, actually twitched, showing signs of reviving...

Yun Che's heart skipped a beat, and he frowned.

Could it be... the leader?!

If this thing manages to awaken and defeat the black beetle, the situation won't be very optimistic...

At this moment, another black-shelled beetle, significantly larger in size and at the late stage of mutation level, broke through the insect silk barrier first, its scarlet, cruel eyes wide open and its ferocious mouthparts agape.

Without time to think, Yun Che took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"No mercy!"

Kong Kong was briefly stunned upon hearing this.

He grinned, revealing a smile.

Faced with the sudden attack of the late-stage mutated black beetle, it pulled out its tail without hesitation.

A tremendous force suddenly erupted!

boom! ! !

Smash it right against the wall!

The black-shelled beetle's body exploded, just like a water-filled balloon!

The sound of the shell cracking and the sight of sticky black liquid splattering together paint a bloody picture at this moment.

Then came two more black beetles.

The empty tail twitched and slapped repeatedly.

Black blood splattered again on the walls and the ground!

Yun Che still felt a little uncomfortable, but he gradually got used to it.

This scene seemed to have finally intimidated the black beetle.

For the first time, they stopped moving.

All the black beetles in the corridor turned to look at Kongkong.

But the next moment, the voice, which may have originated from the leader, came again.

"Sizzle!!"

Immediately afterwards, all the black beetles seemed to be encouraged by something and started to make noise in unison.

"Sizzle—!!"

The chilling voice echoed in the narrow corridor.

But Kongkong showed no fear whatsoever; instead, it called out to them.

"grumble!"

In terms of momentum, they were in no way inferior!

At this moment, what Yun Che could sense from the little guy was a strong fighting spirit.

It has a kind of imposing presence, like one man holding the pass against ten thousand.

He placed his palm on Kongkong's body.

Remove the "Forced Forging Device".

The moment the restraints disappeared, Kongkong felt a lightness all over his body and spoke again:

"Chirp! (♯▼皿▼)"

The light blue dragon shape is outlined, exuding the dragon's might!

kill!
