Chapter 988 - Omnesflores Under Attack (2/2)
“Are you sure you had enough? If you want, we could still stay here a little longer.”
“Teehee, it’s okay. I heard that it’s better for us to take a vacation once in a while. If we keep on enjoying ourselves and expend all the fun, there will be no more fun to enjoy in the future!”
“Alright. Let’s collect our things and head home. We can make more preparations for the next operation if we head back early too.”
Thus, they headed back to the hotel to collect their things.
“Oh! Oh! Remember that golden rose? It looks so beautiful! We haven’t seen one out there at all. Perhaps we could get some of its seeds and then we could plant it ourselves?”
“Sure, let’s go ask around.”
Qin Feng and Bai Li thus headed to the streets to see if they could still find Daybloom.
However, due to how peaceful the planet was, Qin Feng had not been using his conscious powers at all in the last few weeks. After looking around for a dozen minutes, Qin Feng finally realized that he had not been activating his conscious scanning abilities.
“Wow, this is what peace feels like. How relaxing!” Qin Feng smiled before activating his consciousness and started scanning the whole city.
Then, he saw Daybloom selling flowers on a street about ten kilometers away.
However, the moment he found the boy, Qin Feng also sensed something else. Bai Li, too, had sensed it as she raised her head and glared at the sky.
It was then, a crimson red meteor fell from the sky.
It was not some mere meteor too. It was a huge one. Too huge!
Nonetheless, these kinds of meteors would normally burn up as it enters the planet’s stratosphere. However, the moment it entered the stratosphere, the meteor blew up!
Booom!
A crimson red dyed the bright blue sky, as if the sky was wounded and bleeding.
Daybloom, who was hustling on the streets, raised his head and stared at the sky in shock. The golden roses fell to the ground as he shook in fear.
“Ahhhhh!! We’re under attack!!”
“Run! Run for your lives!”
“It’s the Insectoids!”
People on the streets hurried to the nearby buildings for shelter as they screamed in fear. Tens of thousands of Insectoids flew out from the meteor that exploded in the sky. Not only that, these Insectoids were seemingly led by a shape-shifting beast king!
The meteor was merely their disguise to get close to the planet. When they left the meteor, these Insectoids’ bodies got stronger and bigger.
If these monsters went on and attacked Omnesflores like this, it could very well wipe out the entire fleet of their defenses on their satellites on the planet’s orbit.
“Calling the First Fleet! We are under attack! I repeat! We are under attack!”
“Requesting for shield activation. Quick! Those disgusting centipedes are coming!”
“Over! Request is granted!”
Vrrooom!!
A loud machine-like voice could be heard throughout the city before a sphere of force field enveloped the entire continent. Countless cities on the planet were shielded by the same force field.
Meanwhile, the Insectoids had already fallen from the sky and were littered on the ground.
They were Bloodlust Centipedes. As soon as they landed, these creatures rushed straight to the force field and chomped onto it. As seconds went by, they were able to tear through and breach into the cities as they began their mindless slaughter on the local population.
Daybloom kept running and running. However, he was not fast enough—a Bloodlust Centipede had wriggled its way to him like the wind.
The Centipede was not even locking onto Daybloom. All it did was move on the streets and devour everything in its path.
This was the first time Daybloom could sense his own mortality.
“Aahhh!”
Daybloom screamed out in horror as he tripped and fell onto the ground.
Seeing that its prey had stopped moving, the Bloodlust Centipede wriggled to the poor boy excitedly.
Daybloom felt that he should close his eyes to avoid looking at the countless moving insect legs, or the terrifying jaw…
But he was so terrified that he could not move even his eyelids.
Then, in a daze, the boy saw them. The generous man, who bought his flower a few weeks ago, and his beautiful girlfriend…
That was…
“Mr Qin…!”
