"Alien." Almost at the instant Su Xiaocai spoke, the man frantically shook it off, shook off Su Xiaocai, and turned to flee.
Unable to run fast in the crowded area, the man found another path and went upwards.
Su Xiaocai lifted her foot to pursue, telling her classmates, "It’s an insect man, call the police."
The insect man, who was discovered, fled quickly, jumping vigorously from one billboard to another, fluidly navigating through the air.
The onlooking crowd only heard the word insect man and saw two people starting a chase on the street.
The man was strong and powerful, and with a flash, he swept over their heads and shot out over a hundred ters.
The pressure on the billboards caused them to crash around in succession, like a domino effect, knocking the billboards aside.
Behind the man was a petite figure in hot pursuit, jumping onto dumpsters and stepping on roofs and sunshades like a nimble bird, darting through an incredible path.
Hu Ping, Wu Qingqing, and others were stunned.
What was happening.
Aside from in gas, people living on the Capital Star might never see an insect man in their lifeti.
What did Su Xiaocai an by insect man.
While the teammates were still bewildered, reliable Ji Li imdiately dialed; he contacted not the police, but Major Sun.
Insect man, the police can’t handle it.
Major Sun found Ji Li’s words unbelievable, absurd; the Capital Star had the most stringent security, and before foreign laborers worked in any company or store, they must pass a physical examination.
How could an insect man possibly infiltrate?
What if it really did appear?
Major Sun had to take action.
Coincidentally, so team mbers were on vacation near the square.
Major Sun notified the team mbers to rush over to assist, he told Ji Li, "It might take a little ti."
Ji Li: "Hurry up, there are a lot of people here today. If you don’t want any casualties, get here quickly."
Afterwards, Ji Li called the police to explain what had happened.
The police weren’t as easy to talk to as Major Sun, they didn’t know Ji Li, "Sir, there’s no way there’s an insect man on the Capital Star, are you sure your friends haven’t made a mistake?"
"You’re far from the military; I’ve already notified military personnel for support, yet you think such a major issue is attempting to deceive, filing a false report and wasting police resources," Ji Li retorted sarcastically.
The operator’s old face turned red, asking his location, na, phone number, "Please keep your communicator, maintain clear signals, we will contact you later."
"Hmm, I don’t actually expect you, the police always arrive last. You should bring soone who can clean up the aftermath instead."
Operator: Understood, isn’t it just finding soone to take responsibility, she gets it.
Gets what.
If an insect man really appears, not even the highest police officials can bear the responsibility.
...
Su Xiaocai and the insect man had chased for nearly a kiloter, jumping up and down, those unaware thought it was a street stunt performance.
Only they knew the true situation.
They were both playing for keeps, one desperately fleeing, one risking life to chase.
Su Xiaocai fixed her gaze on the man, calculating multiple plans for every step she took.
Testing rapid prediction and physical responsiveness.
The distance gradually closed, the insect man almost within reach.
A sudden change occurred, for unknown reasons, two tourist bubble carriages suddenly lost control, accelerating towards Su Xiaocai.
"Ahhhh..." Screams echoed without a break.
They wanted to switch to manual control, but no matter how they stepped on the brakes, they couldn’t stop.
"Get out, get out."
People below were terrified, fearing collateral damage, quickly avoiding.
Luckily, the bubble cars’ maximum speed was only thirty, Su Xiaocai reacted promptly, sliding sideways, grabbing the guardrail of a store’s balcony.
The bubble cars smashed directly into the billboards.
With two loud bangs, the crowd scread, frantically retreating.
The bubble cars stopped, Su Xiaocai glanced inside, the two won seed unhard. Just extrely frightened, hugging their heads and crying.
With Su Xiaocai’s brief hesitation, the insect man increased the distance again.
The insect man was about to escape the square, with more complicated terrain outside, alleys crisscrossing, once out of the square, it would surely escape.
Who knows what would happen after it escapes.
Su Xiaocai didn’t care much, she pulled out a piece of tal from the Space Button and threw it forcefully at the insect man.
Right on the insect man’s foot, it stumbled in midair, crashing down, lying flat on the ground.
Normally, a fall like this would render soone immobile.
But it stood up like nothing happened, it looked down at the skin on its hand, already peeling, coming off in a whole piece.
Not only was it peeling, it was irreparable damage, the insect man roared in anger, "Who are you, why do you obstruct ."
Imdiately following, a horrifying scene unfolded.
The insect man tore at its skin, peeling off half, revealing half a non-human insect face.
Its back undulated, ejecting two soft tentacles.
Upon contact with air, the tentacles ford a black hard shell, exuding a dangerous aura.
Rings of sounds, the tal Su Xiaocai had just thrown rolled off the billboard in motion, crisp sounds like a death knell.
The insect man’s tentacles stretched, grabbed a nearby dog, opened its bloody mouth wide, and bit off the dog’s head.
Blood splattered, it grinned while chewing, seemingly flaunting to Su Xiaocai, silently saying: "Look, what can you do to ."
Children witnessing the scene cried out in terror.
"Insect man, it’s an insect man, run."
"Why are there insect n on the Capital Star."
Upon hearing insect man, everyone pushed and fled outward, people squeezing against each other.
The atmosphere of fear was infectious, those inside scread and ran, those unaware also followed in flight.
Woodenly staring outside the square, so were even interested in finding out what happened.
So daredevils dashed against the crowd towards the incident’s center, making the broad street suddenly seem congested.
Ji Li and others retreated into a bank, the more dangerous it was, the less they could run around; the bank’s glass was bulletproof, thickened.
Even if suddenly struck by external forces, it wouldn’t collapse entirely and fall on people.
The bank’s fire safety was also qualified, in critical monts, one could leave through the ergency exit.
Now they were waiting for the police to arrive.
Outside was chaotic, Ji Li sat at the bank cHe borrowed Ji Heng’s communicator to talk with Major Sun.
Inquiring about insect n disguising themselves as humans.
"It’s never happened before, insect n generally gather at the outskirts of the star system to attack, they kill humans on sight, their intelligence isn’t great, hard to hide themselves." Major Sun’s reply seed to indicate the situation wasn’t serious, but it was grave, because insect n disguise had never been detected before, nobody knew how deep they were concealed.
Military didn’t disclose much about insect n, Major Sun couldn’t say much to Ji Li: "If an insect man is truly discovered on the Capital Star, the entire Star Zone’s population may need a broad investigation. I’ve sent three more military personnel over, you be careful not to get too close."
Conversation ended.
Liu Xun: "Caicai shouldn’t have an exoskeleton ch, and chas can’t be used in city centers, will sothing happen?"
Insect man’s physical strength far exceeds ordinary humans, otherwise they wouldn’t need to use chas in combat.
"The master is strong." Wu Qingqing, who was closest to Su Xiaocai.
Knowing that Su Xiaocai operated with a plan, she chased into such a crowded area for a battle with purpose.
...
Returning to Su Xiaocai’s side.
The insect man prepared for a massacre, knowing humans value their young most, the first target was that crying child, the most annoying one.
The back tentacles gathered, forming a spindle shape, directly lunging towards the human child.
The child’s father trembled, desperately pulling, but this chubby kid only knew how to cry, feet firmly planted, immovable.
Fatherly love like a mountain, the child’s father closed his eyes, embraced the child, burying his head, ready to et death.
Pain didn’t descend, the child’s father glanced back, two long blades blocking the back.
"Run farther, don’t get in the way here."
The long blades in Su Xiaocai’s hands pressed against the insect man’s claws, preventing the father and son from being bloodied on the spot.
