"Let's check online."
Shen Yuan clicked on his watch, opened the QianDu browser, and checked the situation.
"Monster suspected to be Godzilla attacks Hiroshima!"
"Loch Ness Monster sighting? Suspected ancient dinosaur!"
"Army ants going through crazy mutations! Amazon Rainforest becomes the most terrifying area on the surface!"
"Communication paralysis in some regions worldwide, the world is about to enter a communication blackout!"
...
The disaster further escalated!
The entire civilization system of the world was collapsing comprehensively. Communication, transportation, and public safety began to break down in many places, with some cities already "cut off from the world." Phone calls could not get through, text messages went unanswered, and contact with the outside world was lost!
Shen Yuan searched for "Pengcheng" again and saw lines of blood-red text, standing up abruptly.
"The true reason for the appearance of Mutant Mice: A meteor fell into a mouse nest in Pengcheng Park!"
"The largest meteor fell into Pengcheng Zoo, causing thousands of animals to mutate!"
"Warning! Do not approach Yunlong Lake or Yunlong Mountain; there are more and scarier Mutant Creatures in the water!"
"A murderer has mutated; Pengcheng Prison has turned into a hell on earth!"
“Mutated Brown Bear attacking Southern Communication Building, communication is about to be interrupted!”
……
Suddenly.
“Boom!”
With a loud crash, Shen Yuan hurried to the window and saw a massive Grizzly Bear towering over twenty meters, roaring at the Southern Communication Building two kilometers away.
An SUV was embedded in the upper floors of the Communication Building, clearly thrown there by the Grizzly Bear!
Shen Yuan felt a chill in his heart.
Above the tenth floor, that was where the server room was located! The entire Pengcheng communication exchange center was there! Ten years ago, the three networks merged, integrating Mobile, Telecom, and Unicom. If that place were destroyed…
Shen Yuan quickly raised his wristwatch and noticed that the signal had dropped from full bars to empty in no time.
He tried to make a phone call, but there was no response.
He opened a webpage, and it was completely blank.
He looked up at the gray sky, thinking that it had become utterly silent.
As quiet as the deep starry sky.
A deathly silence.
…………
“Red Sister… we can’t wait any longer!”
Shen Yuan looked up and saw the Mutated Brown Bear charging towards him, covering several meters with each step. He quickly moved aside the bed, opened the door, picked up Chi Qinghua, and dashed out, heading downstairs.
He got into the car, started the engine, and held Chi Qinghua close as he sped out of the orphanage. A Hu quickly followed.
Once outside on the street, Shen Yuan turned back for one last look at the orphanage. He saw a red banner hanging between the second and third floors of the main building, with bold yellow letters that read:
“Every child deserves to be cherished!”
…………
He couldn’t go into the city to find Red Sister because the route either passed by Yunlong Lake, near Yunlong Mountain, or close to Pengcheng Zoo—all of which were too dangerous.
He might have dared to venture alone, but with Chi Qinghua in his arms, he truly didn’t have the courage.
He believed in Red Sister’s abilities. A fifteen-year-old who could survive being beaten and still thrive, even in a brutal apocalypse, could surely manage well.
If she couldn’t survive, then ninety-nine percent of people in this world would probably be dead!
So where to go?
East New District?
West Scenic Area?
Should I leave the city and go somewhere else, even to the countryside?
Ding!
The watch beeped, it was a text message from Shi Yiran that had been sent earlier, but Shen Yuan hadn't had the chance to read it. He set special alerts for some contacts, so certain calls and messages would remind him multiple times... like Red Sister and Shi Yiran.
Upon opening it, Shen Yuan's face turned pale!
"Shen Yuan, you need to leave! Right now! I just got news that if the situation can't be stabilized, the military has decided to deploy the Bomber to eliminate those terrifying monsters! Find a way to get to Jinling! My dad says it's the safest place! He won't let me call, so I could only sneak this text to you while he wasn't paying attention!"
Bomber!
The military is going to use the Bomber?
They don't care about the lives of civilians anymore?
Boom!
A series of roars erupted as Shen Yuan looked up and saw several helicopters circling in the sky. Then, machine guns targeted a Mutated Brown Bear below and opened fire.
It couldn't harm the Mutated Brown Bear at all; instead, it only enraged it!
The Mutated Brown Bear suddenly grabbed an SUV and hurled it into the sky!
In the next moment, the SUV collided with one of the helicopters, which burst into flames and quickly fell, destroying both the aircraft and its crew!
The other helicopters immediately ascended to avoid further attacks.
Not long after, three Bombers flew in from Northern Air Force Base.
One bomb after another fell to the ground, shattering the surrounding buildings. Shen Yuan could even see people being blown away, unsure if they were alive or dead, or perhaps those who had been bitten by the Mutant Mouse and turned into Undead!
The body of the Mutated Brown Bear was tough enough, but it was still drenched in blood and torn apart by these new powerful bombs.
It attacked frantically, throwing various objects into the sky, forcing the Bombers to climb higher!
It wanted to escape!
However, the three Bombers continued their bombardment. When they found it difficult to kill the Mutated Brown Bear, they directly deployed Air-to-Ground Missiles.
After a series of ten or so Missiles, the Mutated Brown Bear collapsed with a roar, finally dead!
The scene was as grand as a Hollywood Blockbuster!
This was a satisfying event for many, even if it resulted in numerous innocent casualties. Onlookers would likely cheer because if the Mutated Brown Bear were still alive, it would kill more people.
This was not about considering the greater good or moral righteousness.
It was simply a matter of self-interest… usually kept at arm's length, nothing more.
However, Shen Yuan felt an unusual chill in his heart.
He knew that unless absolutely necessary, the military would never recklessly use large-scale weapons; they would only be deployed against the most terrifying Mutant Creatures like the Mutated Brown Bear.
Yet this already indicated how severe the situation had become.
Pengcheng, a place of strategic importance in military affairs, is the base of a Group Army and one of the most important military installations of the Eastern Theater Command.
Even on a national scale, Pengcheng ranks among the top twenty in terms of military defense capabilities.
However, despite this, the situation in Pengcheng remains tense. Which city in the country is not facing a tense situation?
Pengcheng lacks original forests, large lakes, major rivers, and steep mountains, and it does not have many large or fearsome animals. Places like Shennongjia, Daxing'anling, Three Mountains and Five Peaks, and Great Lakes are likely to have even more terrifying Mutant Creatures, making their situations even more precarious.
How many "Mutated Brown Bears" of that level exist in all of Pengcheng? The Pengcheng Zoo seems to have fierce animals like tigers, lions, leopards, and black bears. What about the Snake House?
Who knows how many terrifying Mutant Creatures are out there?
Who knows how many people will be affected? Will any of them be among us?
If the situation worsens further, will the military conduct large-scale bombings for the sake of the "greater good"?
Shen Yuan does not know.
The text message from Shi Yiran fills him with fear because in the face of a Mutated Brown Bear and a Bomber, he, Shen Yuan, is ultimately just an ordinary person—one who is flesh and blood and easily susceptible to death!
