Chapter 3160: Did They Not Care About This World?
Chapter 3160: Did They Not Care About This World?
It didn’t seem like the higher-ups were here.
Did they not care about this world?
That shouldn’t be the case. Ning Shu had witnessed the collapse of a plane before, and just cleaning up the fragments was enough to drive people mad. When a world collapsed, it would significantly impact other worlds that surrounded it.
It was like having a pile of trash suddenly dumped in your home.
With the rapid growth and reproduction rate of these aliens, they would soon take over. What then?
Wen Xing was also puzzled and asked his system about this. His system said that the higher-ups had already responded and said they were sending some people over.
Wen Xing shrugged. “They said some people have already arrived, but we haven’t seen anyone.”
Ning Shu: …
Maybe some people had arrived, and someone had gotten a high-ranking host who could mobilize armed forces…
Ning Shu took out fasting pills, handing one to Wen Xing, then ate one herself.She flexed her stiff fingers to get the blood flowing. Not only did she have to shoot, but she also had to wield a scalpel.
Now the monsters had grown up, and instead of burrowing into people’s stomachs, they just gnawed on them. They left behind a bloody mess wherever they went.
Ning Shu had even seen a woman whose pelvic bone was exposed after a monster had chewed through her hips.
Even when women survived after a monster burrowed into their stomachs, their bodies were damaged, and they might never be able to have children after the attack.
A woman should have the choice to have a child or not. The thought of them getting that choice taken away from them by those monsters was something that Ning Shu found infuriating.
They didn’t make it in time to some people and found them already dead or too far gone to be rescued.
The entrustor, Duan Xue, had died that way. Duan Xue: The f*ck!? I haven’t even fallen in love or bought a house yet. I worked so hard to save up money just to have it stuck in my account? I haven’t even gotten to experience anything yet!
Wen Xing lay on the ground, hands behind his head, staring at the stars.
His posture was quite elegant, and he looked like a scholar sitting in the wild.
“Having seen the vast seas, no other water compares; after Mount Wu, no clouds hold my gaze,” Wen Xing murmured.
Ning Shu: …
At a time like this, this guy was still reciting poetry. He must have gotten his heart broken before.
“Did you live in ancient times before you became a task-taker?” Ning Shu asked.
“You can tell? Yes, I was a scholar from an influential family. Some people say I exude a bookworm’s aura too much,” Wen Xing said with some helplessness.
It wasn’t as bad as being a bookworm, but one could tell he was well-read.
The knowledge he had absorbed was now part of his demeanor.
Wen Xing looked at Ning Shu. “I guess you’re from modern times.
“Some things are ingrained in one’s bones.”
Ning Shu nodded. “Yes, I’m from the modern era.”
Wen Xing was still staring at the stars. He said, “In youth, I knew nothing of fate — lost and entangled in petty love, unable to break free.”
Ning Shu: Hmm, there’s some juicy gossip here…
“You seem especially sentimental tonight,” Ning Shu said while massaging her sore calf.
“It’s not that I’m sentimental. It’s just that when a scholar sees flowers, birds, or a city, the heart stirs, and one can’t help but sigh or lament.”
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu’s heart was also stirring with a desire to hear gossip, especially when she heard what Wen Xing said about being entangled in petty love.
She was dying of curiosity. She wanted to hear gossip to improve her mood.
Besides, hearing about someone else’s heartbreak would definitely lift her spirits.
If he had any sob stories, he should share them for everyone to enjoy!
