Chapter 154 A "Guest" from Another Realm

It was quite a coincidence. I had met Song Hang before in the Brave Survival game, but we hadn't met again since because of different times when we entered and exited the dungeon. However, we met again in this dungeon, though not at close range. Song Hang was currently in a major foreign country and learned from the comments that Rong Yi was also in this dungeon.

Song Hang's experience was quite thrilling. He almost died in a certain dungeon, but unexpectedly obtained the research potion of that dungeon world. After consuming it, he mixed it with a second talent activation potion to gain a new talent, thus saving his life and becoming a promising player.

Since they were already friends, it was easy for Song Hang to contact Rong Yi. Rong Yi happened to ask him about the situation abroad.

Wei Yanqing asked, and Rong Yi put down his phone to check if Song Hang had replied.

"I saw it, they sent some photos." She forwarded the photos to Wei Yanqing so they could look at them together.

The pictures I received showed that the country was in chaos. Initially, the northern region fell quickly, and the army used missiles and other bombs to contain the situation, but many civilians there were also killed.

These messages were suppressed by the authorities and could not be posted online, but these players were well aware of them. There were also players in the north. Some were lucky enough to dig tunnels and survive, or used their talents to withstand the bombing. Others were not so lucky. In addition to the seeded characters, there were many players with ordinary talents in this instance, and many of them were killed by the bombing.

It has been proven that, within a certain period, even the strongest body is vulnerable to large-scale thermal weapons.

“Speaking of missiles, this method can be used against meteorites that fall in uninhabited areas. Anyway, there are many meteorites that fall on planets, so blowing up a few won’t hurt.” Wei Yanqing also noticed that the larvae were afraid of fire.

Rong Yi: "That's what we should have done, but throwing missiles at a crowd, tsk tsk." The news really needs to be suppressed.

The second image shows a player who hacked into a foreign official base and found a carnivorous worm captured by a drone. Unlike the sub-worm stage, this carnivorous worm is the size of a bus and covered in a black shell, looking exactly like a monster that jumped out of a movie.

Rong Yi recognized the form of the ferocious insect. "This one is an adult. It looks like it has eaten quite a lot."

Wei Yanqing raised an eyebrow. "If it's this big and only just reached adulthood, how powerful must it be?"

Rong Yi pondered for a moment, “The leaders of the branch races are as big as planets. Of course, it depends on which planet, but anything with the word ‘planet’ in it is bound to be big. As for the Zerg Queen, I can’t remember her, but I seem to have seen her before.”

It's hard to imagine what it would be like to encounter a bug the size of a planet in space.

The third photo shows a large-scale protest abroad. According to Song Hang, most areas there are without internet access. Some of this is due to the authorities' orders, while others are due to the bombing of the northern region, which has caused internet outages in areas closer to the north.

Song Hang also brought a message: "Everyone here is armed now, looting supermarkets and convenience stores, basically any kind of shop. The rich are starting to leave in private jets, all seeking refuge in countries not hit by the meteorite. There's a tendency towards riots."

Rong Yi asked: "So, are you planning to stay there?"

After saying this, he turned to Wei Yanqing beside him and said, "When the ferocious insects grow to adulthood, they will reproduce until they form an insect tide that sweeps across the globe. It's just unknown where the insect tide will begin."

Wei Yanqing: "An insect swarm?"

Rong Yi nodded, "That's right. When an insect swarm forms, it will be an unstoppable force, like locusts crossing the globe to devour everything. The first circle will eat up all life on the planet's surface, the second circle will eat up the topsoil, and the third circle will eat up the minerals deep inside. They will go around in circles, but they will avoid magma."

It's hard to imagine what a hellish scene that must have been like.

Wei Yanqing couldn't help but sigh, "Can this planet really last a year?"

Without surface vegetation to produce oxygen, how can the atmosphere remain stable? How can life survive on a planet without an atmosphere?

Rong Yi: "So there's not much time left for this world."

A desert area in China.

Personnel, fully equipped with specialized gear and traveling in desert vehicles, entered the bombed area. Twelve large meteorites fell in the desert, and officials immediately mobilized satellites to determine their exact coordinates and issued bombing orders.

There was hardly anyone in this place to begin with, and even plants and animals were scarce, so the bombing went smoothly.

They came to check the condition of the meteorite, to see if all the insect eggs inside were dead.

"We're still 600 meters from the coordinates," said the person holding the equipment.

Everyone looked in the designated direction. The car had been driving for a short while when it arrived at the bombed area. The crater was still quite deep and had not been completely buried by sand and gravel.

"The bio-detector is activated and is expanding the scanning area."

"Diameters of 20 meters, 30 meters, 40 meters..."

Nothing was detected even at a distance of fifty meters, as all the nearby creatures had fled due to the bombing.

"The meteorite fragments need to be collected quickly and transported back to the base."

The personnel who came with the vehicle began to work. They used the detector to mark the location of all the suspicious objects and then dug them out one by one.

Everyone was working feverishly, while the biological detector reached its limit: "120 meters in diameter, no abnormalities."

After speaking, the man placed the instrument in the shade under the car. The leader next to him instructed, "Continue to observe, and report immediately if anything happens."

The meteorite here was shattered into many pieces, and soon someone dug out the first fragment, "Found it."

On the glazed black meteorite, the red lines have lost their luster and turned dark red, and the eggs inside are all dead.

"The bombing was successful; all the insect eggs were rendered inactive."

These meteorites were carefully packed into boxes, followed by a second, a third...

Just when everyone thought everything was going smoothly, the leader's headset suddenly received a call request. She immediately answered, "Team codename Wasteland 1662, please evacuate immediately. There are also ferocious insects nearby. I am flying a Raptor-25 fighter jet to provide support."

The leader, encased in his gear, paled drastically. "Stop working immediately! Load the meteorites onto the truck and get out of here right now! There are still living ferocious insects nearby!"

Before we came, this place was patrolled by several rounds of fighter jets to make sure there were no ferocious insects. How did these things come out of nowhere?!

Everyone had this question in their minds, but now was not the time to ask; they had to run.

The person who picked up the biometric detector again saw a red dot appear within the scanning range. After scanning again, dozens of red dots appeared. "There's something unusual. The savage insects are approaching us, coming from the south!"

This is terrible!

The leader immediately asked the driver on the other end of the headset, "How much longer until we reach the rescue location? We're being pursued!"

"Arrive within 30 seconds, release a signal smoke to indicate your location, and then leave immediately."

The leader immediately called to those around him, "Shoot signal smoke to reveal our position!"

Several people released signal smoke and left it on the spot, then the car quickly drove north away.

Within ten seconds, swarms of black ferocious insects appeared, conspicuously visible in the golden desert.
