The insects over there didn't continue to advance, as if they were in a standoff with them.
Camp Commander Xie was also bustling about, looking as though they were almost ready.
"Start the fire..."
His voice was very loud, clearly audible throughout the mountain.
The glow of the fire below slowly began to rise.
Song Yi kept his eyes on the insects above, fearing any unexpected movement.
"Jiang Yuan, if these insects stay still, are we just going to wait here?"
"Comrade Song, if you have any good ideas, please don't hesitate to teach us."
Indeed, after interacting over the past two days, he had come to understand their intentions.
"Otherwise, let's burn the original trees first.
Then gradually reduce the range inside.
Now that the living insects have all come up, those inside should all be dead.
They're not advancing, probably because they sense the danger.
But returning to the lake is also dangerous. While the effects of the chemicals are still strong, we need to hurry!"
