Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 19 Chirami

"Don't go up to him. That guy is possessed by Chirami. Fists are useless. If you get bitten and injected with mutant cells, you're doomed."

Su Ming reminded Chen Tong.

"You two stop arguing, that guy seems to be targeting us."

Mingke said to Su Ming and Chen Tong in fear.

Su Ming and Chen Tong immediately looked at Zhou Kang, who was being held captive, with caution. They saw his dark red eyes staring at them intently, and then his mouth split open, with drops of black blood seeping out.

Then Zhou Kang rushed towards Su Ming and the other two.

Just then a rough voice came from behind.

"Step aside!"

Su Ming and the other two subconsciously dispersed.

At this time, the burly dormitory manager rushed towards Zhou Kang with a kitchen knife in her hand.

"Don't go, Aunt Li!"

Su Ming reminded immediately.

Aunt Li didn't listen to Su Ming at all, and she chopped Zhou Kang's head with a close range knife, with half of the knife going into the head. If it were a normal person, he would definitely have died.

Unfortunately, Zhou Kang did not fall down, but instead grabbed Aunt Li's neck with both hands.

"Ugh~Help, help!"

Aunt Li's face turned red.

Seeing this, Su Ming and the other two were about to take the risk and rush over to save her.

At this time, Zhou Kang opened his mouth and faced Aunt Li's mouth. Then, a bunch of disgusting black cell substances flowed out of Zhou Kang's mouth and drilled into Aunt Li's mouth.

When Su Ming and the other two saw this, they stopped immediately.

Aunt Li, who had been struggling desperately, suddenly stopped struggling. At the same time, her eyes began to turn dark red and her skin all over her body turned black and bulged.

The classmate who was bitten on the ground also staggered to his feet.

Zhou Kang and the other two infected people looked at Su Ming and the other two at the same time, and Su Ming and the other two instinctively stepped back.

At this time, screams continued to be heard in the dormitory building, the outside area was in chaos, and then a shrill alarm sounded throughout District 13.

"Su Ming, I remember this thing is afraid of fire. Does anyone have a lighter?"

Mingke asked very nervously.

"Lighters are useless. We need to find a way to get a flamethrower. Now is not the time to talk about these things. Run!"

Su Ming remembered that the school had flamethrowers, because invasions by creatures like Chirami were not uncommon, so he pulled Mingke and Chen Tong and ran back.

Zhou Kang and the other two who were being boarded chased after him madly.

Su Ming looked back, and using all his strength, his body bursting with unprecedented potential, he ran for his life.

District 13: Administrative Office Building.

In a clean and spacious office, a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt, black suit, and red bow tie, with a resolute face and sharp eyes, sat at his desk, reviewing complicated documents.

A dozen administrative officers stood respectfully in front of him, waiting quietly.

At this moment, he heard the alarm sounding outside the window and immediately put down the pen in his hand.

Deng Deng~
Accompanied by a burst of hurried footsteps, the half-open door was pushed open, and a burly, muscular man in black combat uniform walked in hurriedly.

"District Chief Xiao, something happened!"

"Speak, Ye Wei."

"In District 13, there has been an invasion of Chirami larvae."

Ye Wei reported breathlessly.

"It's just a juvenile. Can't you just deal with it according to the emergency treatment rules? Is there any need to rush here in such a hurry?"

Xiao Lie looked at Ye Wei calmly.

After hearing what Xiao Lie said, Ye Wei showed a hint of hesitation on his face, but in the end he gritted his teeth and reported.

“Although the outbreak this time was of chirami larvae, the number is enormous.”

"What are you doing? Why did you only discover such a large number of Chirami invasion now?"

After hearing what Ye Wei said, Xiao Lie's calm face showed a hint of anger. "The source of this outbreak is from the Yuanda garbage disposal site in the lower city. The garbage there is piled up like a mountain, providing cover for Qi Lami."

Ye Wei explained immediately.

"What the hell is going on at the garbage dump? They didn't notice anything unusual and report it immediately. This is a serious dereliction of duty!"

Many officials in the office made an angry accusation.

In fact, due to the fear of infiltration by the mechanical clan, not many surveillance devices are installed in the entire District 13, so there are many blind spots.

And since we cannot rely on smart machines, patrolling and security can only rely on manpower.

Since manpower is used, mistakes are inevitable. Usually they are patched up, but the mistakes this time are extremely big.

"That's enough. Now is not the time to pursue responsibility. First mobilize the troops to resolve this incident, and we can deal with the rest later."

Xiao Lie interrupted everyone's accusations in a cold voice.

"Yes"

Everyone responded quickly.

Miente Intermediate College.

Su Ming and the other two rushed out of the dormitory building breathlessly and in a panic.

"Finally I got out and was saved!"

Mink said breathlessly.

"Not always."

Su Ming sighed and said with a severe headache.

Mingke was stunned for a moment, then he looked up and saw that everything outside was in chaos.

There were people everywhere who were infected by Chirami Boarding, frantically chasing after the students who were not infected.

"Help!"

"Don't be afraid!"

At this time, a security guard came with a portable flamethrower and sprayed fire at the infected people.

"Ah~"

The infected people's bodies suddenly began to burn with flames and they howled in pain.

However, there were too many people infected and the number of security guards was very limited, so they were unable to control the situation at all.

Looking down from the sky at this time, you can see the host rats crawling out from the sewers and dead corners in the campus.

Their scarlet eyes stared at the students running around and the security guards holding flamethrowers, and they rushed over at an extremely fast speed.

Security captain Qian Feng, who was directing his subordinates, noticed the attacking rats at the first moment. He immediately turned the muzzle of the flamethrower and fired at the attacking rats.

"Everyone beware of the infected rats!"

Many security guards were shocked when they heard this. They raised their flamethrowers and turned around to spray flames at the rats that were attacking from all directions.

baah~
The scorching flames swept past, and the attacking rats were burned one after another, while a foul smell emerged.

However, the number of the attacking rats was too large, and these parasitic rats were very inconspicuous under the cover of night, and their movement speed was faster than that of the human-shaped parasites.

Soon, one of the security guards was not paying attention and was jumped by a lodged rat. He immediately shouted in fear.

"Help!"

"Old Sun, get rid of it!"

Security Captain Qian Feng turned his head and shouted immediately.

Unfortunately, it was too late. The rat opened its mouth and bit Lao Sun's arm. Black cells seeped out of its mouth and invaded his body through the wound.

"Ah~"

Old Sun suddenly let out a cry of pain.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this, Qian Feng had no choice but to steel himself and raised his flamethrower to spray at his former companion.
