I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse

Insect Disaster

Du Yue did not know if the person had posted it on his Moments, but the issue caused quite a stir on Weibo.

The netizens all left comments under the post, saying that they had never seen so many flies in their lives, let alone such big ones.

Du Yue continued to scroll through the comments. Unsurprisingly, she saw a few comments with photos of groups of flies. The people who replied to the post said that they had encountered a similar situation.

The appearance of these flies also meant that the end of the world was coming soon. The temperature during the day was already above 60 degrees. Under normal circumstances, an environment like this did not meet the conditions for flies to survive. The fact that there were flies despite such high temperatures was an outrageous phenomenon in itself.

Besides, not only did the flies not go extinct despite the high temperatures, but they had also grown more than twice their size. Their numbers had also increased by many times.

Du Yue did not do much research in the field of biology, so she had no idea what was going on.

However, having experienced the apocalypse once, she knew very well that these flies had a very strong reproductive ability. They would lay eggs everywhere, and the eggs they laid would hatch in two or three days. The cycle would continue as the flies would fly elsewhere and lay eggs again.

Du Yue could not help but shiver at the thought of being surrounded by these flies in her past life.

In addition to flies, the number of snakes, insects, and rats also began to increase abnormally, especially the cockroaches in the South. Later on, not only did they have strong reproductive abilities, but their bodies also became abnormally large.

Du Yue had been living in the North since she was young. She had always heard that cockroaches in the North and cockroaches in the South were not of the same species. She did not believe it at first until she saw someone post on the internet about cockroaches the size of a child’s palm. She had no choice but to believe it then.

As someone who did not have trypophobia, even Du Yue was frightened by the photos on the internet during that period of time. They were way too disgusting.

The snakes, insects, and rats not only adapted to the apocalyptic world faster than humans, but they also ate and destroyed the supplies that the people had hoarded.

The hot weather and limited water and electricity meant that very few resources could be preserved.

However, the number of snakes, insects, and rats had doubled, which was a huge blow to their heads.

Now, all food had to be vacuum-packed and stored in a shaded area. Cooked food must be finished within half an hour, and kitchen waste had to be disposed of under the hot sun.

As long as one was not careful, not only would one not be able to eat anything, but one would also be surrounded by rats, flies, and mosquitoes.

Du Yue had experienced all of these scenes during the apocalypse in her previous life. Whenever she thought of the feeling of disgust that filled her entire body, she would never want to experience it again.

Du Yue could not be bothered to read the comments under the post anymore. She quickly turned off her phone and took action.

She first tidied up every corner of the house, then put all the furniture that she did not need into her interspace.

Du Yue’s house was originally simply decorated with only some commonly used furniture. Now that most of the furniture had been packed away, the house looked even more spacious.

Even so, Du Yue was still a little worried. She found the pesticide and sprayed it all over the house. She also placed some rat poison in every corner, including the cabinets that she usually didn’t pay much attention to and places near the drains.

When everything was ready, Du Yue finally felt at ease and walked into the bathroom.

Although the air conditioners had been running while she was sleeping, her body was still wet with sweat and sticky.

Fortunately, it was time for the water supply to return, so it was not troublesome to take a bath.

That night, Du Yue did not go out again. When night fell, Du Yue carefully lifted a corner of the curtain and looked outside.

The street lights in the neighborhood were a little dim. She could see many people gathered together and chatting in the garden. It was very noisy and lively.

However, Du Yue knew very well that these peaceful days would soon disappear.

In a few days, the number of flies and mosquitoes increased sharply, and more and more posts about homes being occupied by flies and mosquitoes were published on the internet.

Although the flies and mosquitoes could survive in high temperatures, they would not appear during the day when the temperature was the highest. They would all hide in the dark and only fly out at night when the sun had set and the temperature had dropped.

Flies were disgusting, but at least they did not bite. However, mosquitoes were both disgusting and bit.

The mosquitoes in the apocalypse were many times more harmful than the mosquitoes before the apocalypse. As long as one was bitten by them, one would have a big red bump on one’s body, and the bump was itchy and painful.

What was even more hateful was that they would lay their eggs inside the bump.
