Many cities around the world, in different time zones, suffered the same disaster.
The blood-red night shrouded Qing 'an City. The thunderstorm continued, and the entire city was drenched in blood. The blood came from the sky, and from the bodies of the dead and injured. The originally orderly road was now a completely different scene. There were abandoned cars, broken corpses, and an endless stream of frogs and bugs.
Bang, bang, bang …
Messy gunshots rang out on the streets, and no one could tell where they were coming from.
Since evening, gunshots had been ringing like this, followed by cries of fear, screams of pain, and angry voices.
The doors of the shops on both sides of the street were tightly shut, including this small supermarket. The two floors were filled with people, about fifty to sixty people. Some were employees and customers who were already in the supermarket, and some were refugees who rushed in after the disaster.
"How is it, still no signal?"
"No, no … all the signals are cut, everything is cut …"
"Do you think Phecda's people are here? Those things are not normal at all … "
The supermarket was filled with people's anxious voices. This matter had to be handled by Phecda.
Huang Fade was sweating profusely. He took out his phone and called his wife again and again, but there was no signal. His house was also in Qing 'an City. When the accident happened, it was the time when his wife and child were picked up from school. Could they be on their way home …
The young couple was next to Huang Fade. They had taken his taxi and fled here together.
They were scrolling through their phones. The network signal was also terrible, but they had been able to scroll through a little bit before, so they did not give up. The last update was half an hour ago. Phecda had already intervened, but the authorities still asked the citizens to stay indoors as much as possible and seal the doors and windows.
If they were drenched in the blood rain, they had to wash their bodies immediately to avoid skin contact with others.
Now, the entrance of the small supermarket was tightly shut. Some people even pulled over some shelves and goods to block the entrance. At first, the supermarket owner was hesitant. He did not want the goods to be damaged, but he quickly realized that the most important thing at the moment was to survive.
So some young men continued to pile more shelves over, but suddenly there was a scream.
"Blood is gushing in …"
Someone at the door said in shock. Immediately, many people looked over and saw blood seeping into the sealed door through the tiny gap. Clearly, the water level outside was rising.
"Be careful, don't touch the blood!" A young woman wearing a mask shouted. Her name was Liu Qi. She was a pediatrician at the nearby Third Hospital. She fled here on her way home from work. She was also the only doctor in the supermarket.
Before she received the official news, she had noticed from the window that passersby had symptoms of itchiness on their skin after coming into contact with the blood. She had warned them not to come into contact with the blood.
If the refugees did not have the opportunity to drive directly onto the covered sidewalk like Huang Fade, they would have more or less been drenched by the rain of blood. Those with symptoms were being quarantined in the warehouse on the first floor. They washed their bodies as much as possible and applied some dermatitis ointment, but the itching was still unbearable.
"If this continues, they will definitely swarm in …"
"Boss, where is the rag? Find a rag and stuff it. "
"Yes, put it in first."
The people at the door were busy again. At the same time, some people were slapping the LCD screen on the wall that had lost signal. Some people were pacing back and forth anxiously.
"Didn't you say that there is no such supernatural power? What is this now? "
"Those bugs can't be killed. Ah, they are eating the bodies …"
"It's over, it's all over this time …"
The air in the minimart was getting heavier and more turbid. Cries and complaints could be heard everywhere. Some children were crying in fear and were comforted by their mothers.
In front of a row of large glass windows on the second floor, more than ten people were standing behind the windows, looking nervously at the situation outside.
Huang Fade suddenly heard them screaming. A woman said anxiously, "Who are those people …" A man said, "They look like ancient people. Look, the weapons they are holding, they seem to be made of stone …"
While continuing to make the phone call, Huang Fade walked over to take a look. Through the glass window, he saw a group of strange people walking on the blood-soaked road in the distance.
The ten people all had bronze skin and were wearing scale armor. They held a wooden shield covered with leather in one hand and a spear, axe, sledgehammer, dagger and other weapons in the other. They all seemed to be made of stone. Vaguely, there were some inscriptions and patterns carved on the stones.
"I know a little about history …" Another middle-aged man said anxiously. "That looks like the style of the Aztecs, or maybe the ancient Egyptians …"
In fact, the people here did not care what style it was, they only cared about how the mutants with stone weapons were not shot down by the gunshots …
They soon saw why with their own eyes. Just as the gunshots came from the other end of the street, before they could even cheer, the group of mutants rushed over at an alarming speed. It was as if they had broken through the shackles of this space. Fire exploded from the stone weapons, followed by the screams of the gunmen.
Rebel Burning, Rebel Burning, it was the burning of the rebels from the underworld.
The second floor of the minimart was instantly silent. The people's hearts were in their throats as they watched the few potential rescuers being burned to ashes.
Some of them covered their mouths, some were trembling … All of them started to feel a headache, a headache that felt like their bodies were being torn apart.
"Don't stand by the window, be careful not to be noticed by those people …" Someone shouted from the staircase. "Come over here …"
The shout woke the people who were standing by the window. They quickly ran back, not daring to make any noise.
Fortunately, the group of mutants did not pay attention to the two sides of the street. They continued to walk on the road, like hunting wolves, like road cleaners, and gradually walked away.
At the same time, there were a few cars that had collided on the road not far from the supermarket. One of the cars suddenly opened its door, and a man and a woman got out. They seemed to be a couple. Upon closer inspection, they were carrying a child with their clothes, trying their best to protect the child from the rain of blood.
They had thought it through before they took action. As soon as they got out of the car, they ran to the supermarket. The blood rained down on them.
The people in the supermarket could see them, and they could also see the people in the supermarket.
"Open the door, let us in!" As soon as they reached the entrance of the supermarket, the man said anxiously. He turned his head to look, "Hurry, hurry, I beg you!"
The woman was also begging, "Open the door, we have a child here, let the child in."
They made use of the time difference. Perhaps in another minute, the mutants would pass by again.
