Chapter 144 A "Guest" from Another Realm

This meteor shower was large in scale, even causing casualties in cities, but the vast majority of meteorites landed in sparsely populated areas, with very few falling in cities.

Rong Yi wasn't the only one who suddenly pulled out a gun to eliminate the ferocious insects; this kind of situation occurred in almost every city where a meteorite appeared.

The authorities are taking this very seriously. The police force is rushing to the office building that Rong Yi just went to clean. People only found out that there were alien creatures on the upper floor that could eat people, and they had to run away quickly, after being alerted by employees on the top floor.

However, as more and more videos were uploaded, people discovered that these alien insects not only ate people, but also devoured living animals such as cats, dogs, cattle, and sheep.

The city, attacked by creatures inside the meteorite, has mobilized a large number of police forces.

Rong Yi walked up the stairs and mingled with the crowd as they went downstairs.

As soon as I stepped out of the office building, police cars were parked at the entrance, and the police officers entered the building against the flow of people.

Rong Yi brushed past them. Shi Haokong led the police officers, taking the elevator to the top floor, while another group went up the stairs, searching each floor to ensure that the alien creatures inside hadn't escaped the building.

Upon reaching the top floor, as soon as the elevator doors opened, each officer smelled the most acutely known stench of blood.

After a careful inspection, the team member nodded to him.

"Search from both sides, and open fire immediately if you encounter any suspicious objects!"

He received instructions from his superiors: instead of capturing the alien creatures alive, he should do everything in his power to eliminate them all.

They split into two groups and went to the sides. After carefully checking, they found nothing suspicious except a pile of blood-stained clothes.

"team leader?"

Shi Haokong frowned. "Check all the pipes. According to intelligence, the alien creatures are insect-like beings that might crawl through the pipes."

Everyone immediately took action. One team member turned around and saw a suspicious substance on the ground, stuck in a hole that had somehow appeared in the floor. The area around the small hole was pitch black.

The bolder team members put on gloves and took out tweezers to try to extract it, but the tweezers softened as soon as they touched it.

He suddenly stood up, and Shi Haokong quickly walked over. "What's wrong?"

The daring team member picked up the tweezers, "I wanted to pick up that thing, but it seemed to be very hot."

This attracted everyone's attention, and someone suggested trying to pick it up with tweezers, but the result was the same.

Shi Haokong had a bad feeling; he thought someone might have come by.

"Notify the reinforcements to bring heat-resistant containers; there are special items here that need to be retrieved."

"yes!"

·

The police outside tried to stop the people who were trying to escape, but there were too many people working in the building, and shouting at the top of their lungs was useless.

Rong Yi put on his hat when he was far away and turned to look at the building.

There's no need to worry about insects causing parasitic infections, because once they come into contact with flesh and blood, they will act immediately and kill a person in less than a minute.

I took out my phone and saw the news that the CBD area of ​​Guofu New District was blocked off, and cars were no longer allowed to go this way. Many people also saw many planes flying by, heading in the direction where the meteors landed.

Suddenly, Wei Yanqing sent a message: "[The situation in Xingchao District is quite serious. A lockdown has been implemented here. It will take me some time to find you. You can stay in Fuxin District.]"

It's alright, everything's fine here for now.

There's no widespread chaos yet, so the number of meteorites hitting the city is limited. But the ferocious insects are so aggressive that people will immediately recognize their terror and stay away from them.

After walking a few blocks, the people here knew nothing about the situation in the CBD. Rong Yi put his hands in his pockets. He had just checked his pockets and found that he had no identification and no cash.

She messaged Wei Yanqing: "We can't stay in hotels or guesthouses. We'll decide on accommodation after we meet up."

Okay, you'll have to wait about two hours.

Rong Yi entered the large shopping mall, where people looked at various shops and thought about what items to take home.

No one would find it strange to wander around here for several hours. Rong Yi found a movie waiting room, sat in the corner, and picked up his phone.

A couple sat down next to us.

"Hey, look, something happened not far from here. They say a meteor hit there, and glass fell down and injured someone. To avoid meteorite radiation, the area has been cordoned off." The girl read the news to her boyfriend.

"This meteor shower was quite large. It hit not only our country, but also many places abroad. However, most of the places hit abroad were farms."

"Is there really radiation? Maybe we shouldn't watch the movie, we're too close."

The boy put his arm around his girlfriend's shoulder and said, "What are you afraid of? The whole area is under lockdown. Since it's only that area, they must have done the testing. Don't worry."

The girl, persuaded, nodded and snuggled into her boyfriend's arms to continue scrolling through her phone. "And this, someone's shooting... what's this?"

Her video was played aloud, so people around her could hear it. In the video, worms were crawling out of a corpse. The girl covered her mouth and exclaimed, "How disgusting! These are worms?"

The boy took the phone and looked at the contents closely. In the video, a voice shouted, "Everyone back up!"

With her back to the couple, Rong Yi raised an eyebrow. She recognized her own voice and was surprised that someone had recorded the scene.

The video then turned to her, but only showed her side profile. Then it showed Rong Yi shooting the bug and the person recording the video running away, with the camera shaking.

The girl's tightly furrowed brows remained furrowed, then her attention was drawn to the person next to her. "Look, her clothes look like the person who fired the gun in the video."

Rong Yi pretended not to hear them, pretending to be wearing headphones and scrolling through his phone, showing no reaction to their words.

Seeing Rong Yi scrolling through his phone, the boy said, "What a coincidence! Lots of people wear casual clothes of this color this season. Don't scare yourself."

The girl then looked away, but her boyfriend stood up and started tidying up the things on the table. "We're not going to watch the movie today. Let's buy some things and go home."

He spoke calmly, but the image of the juvenile carnivorous insects being blown up was deeply etched in his mind, making him feel that things might not be so simple.

The girl was already worried about the meteorite incident, and upon hearing her boyfriend's words, she immediately started packing her things, and the young couple quickly left.

After they left, Rong Yi made sure no one was looking at her before getting up and quickly heading to the bathroom.

When she came out of the private bathroom again, she had changed her clothes; she was wearing a typical brown long trench coat paired with black trousers, a common sight on the street.

The video has been leaked. Even if others don't think that there are armed madmen around them, the similar clothing will likely bring her unnecessary trouble.

When Rong Yi returned to his seat, he checked the relevant keywords but couldn't find the video the couple had mentioned, suspecting it had been deleted by the authorities.

At this moment, the CBD business district was indeed in chaos. Rong Yi dealt with the insects that came out of one of the meteorites, but more than one meteorite had crashed into that area.

When the police took people to other places, the situation was not so peaceful.

The office building behind the one Rong Yi had dealt with also suffered damage, but the meteorite hit the rooftop. However, there were many ferocious insects hatching inside. Since the tiny insects couldn't find any flesh and blood around them, they followed the scent of living things and crawled down from the rooftop.

The people inside the building didn't notice the insects on the glass; they crawled all the way to the ground and attacked passersby.
