Chapter 1440: Chapter 786: Who Wouldn’t Be Confused by This?
The cockroaches in City 20 have started to spread.
They are everywhere in the streets and alleys, too numerous to count.
City residents noticed the cockroaches beginning to attack humans. They even saw people covered in cockroaches, wailing and screaming.
The cockroaches had evolved sharp mandibles, and with a bite, blood spurted from the attacked person’s body.
The scene was grotesque and terrifying.
This plunged everyone into fear, as if the disaster of City 10 was about to repeat here.
It should be known that after the disaster in City 10, the population of 12 million was reduced to just 6 million!
For a time, the powerful figures urgently called the Garrison Forces for rescue, while the common people banded together and fled towards the city outskirts.
But soon, everyone realized something different.
These cockroaches... actually did not attack civilians.
Someone shouted on the long street, "Everyone, don’t panic, don’t panic yet! Did you notice, they’re only attacking the high caste, they don’t care about us lower caste at all! I know the person who just died at the intersection, he’s a lapdog of Jindai!"
Slowly, people in every corner of the city discovered this pattern!
The dense swarm of cockroaches passed through, making a rustling sound, but they were indifferent to the residents who gradually stood still, showing no interest whatsoever.
"What’s going on, why aren’t the cockroaches attacking us? Do they hold a grudge against Jindai?"
"I don’t know, but I feel something’s not right."
"Wait, could it be that the Parents’ Meeting is taking revenge against Jindai? Jindai destroyed City 10, and they’re using the same method to destroy Jindai?"
"Now that you mention it, it seems possible, but how did they do it?"
Just as the words were spoken, someone on the street saw a white man, bare-chested, wailing as he ran out of a building, followed closely by cockroaches behind him.
He was finally bitten to death!
After the white man died, the cockroaches did not attack anyone else but continued to search for their next target.
Though the cockroaches couldn’t find every high caste or white person, even killing half was enough to boost the spirits of the common people.
They couldn’t help but wonder if...
The Parents’ Meeting had returned!?
Just as the people of City 20 were reaching their breaking point with Jindai and the Kingdom, the Parents’ Meeting finally returned, just as they hoped in their hearts.
The ramen stall owner stood among the swarm of cockroaches, suppressing his disgust, excitedly sending messages to all his friends and family: Don’t panic, the sudden appearance of cockroaches in the city was orchestrated by the Parents’ Meeting, they won’t harm civilians!
This message spread quickly.
In the six northern cities, any news about the Parents’ Meeting would quickly spread and get retransmitted, as that was the public sentiment and foundation that the Parents’ Meeting had left behind.
At this moment, Hope Media’s Gao Wen suddenly published a post, detailing the inside story of the disaster in City 10: After Jindai Chika’s death, the Jindai Consortium placed his corpse in the sewers of City 10, where it was eventually devoured by cockroaches and rats.
The rats caused the disaster in City 10, while the cockroaches had already been controlled by the Parents’ Meeting.
Now, everything happening in City 20 was turning people’s methods against them, and this time, the target was to kill all those lawless white people!
With this, the people of City 20 finally knew the truth; they began not to fear the cockroaches, and even suppressed their disgust to greet them...
The people carefully observed the ground beneath them, only to see cockroaches surging like a tide from manhole covers, both large and small.
The large ones were as big as washbasins, the small ones as big as fingernails, the large protecting the small, like tanks covering the infantry on the battlefield...
Truth be told, they were clearly happy to see the Parents’ Meeting return and stand up for everyone.
But the problem was, why did they feel both excited and disgusted at the same time?!
By the time Jindai realized something was wrong, the cockroach tide had already spread, and their attempts at resistance were quickly dismantled.
Only then did they understand the fear that City 10’s residents had felt back then.
The cockroach attacks were numerous, but particularly precise: all branches of the PCE Security Management Committee, the Garrison Camp, all residences of Jindai Members, locations exclusively accessible to the high caste.
At one point, Zhu San, the infamous outlaw, walked along the street, exceedingly grateful for Jindai’s high caste system; this system really helped him gather all the Jindai Members and their lapdogs together, making them easy to find.
During his time in City 20, he hadn’t been idle, sleeping only three hours a day to identify these targets.
Zhu San knew that he was the most crucial link in the Parents’ plan, and only if he succeeded could the final plan of the Parents be completed.
Thinking of this, Zhu San couldn’t help but fantasize about returning to the Outer World Whale Island, thinking how he would drink and brag with his family members.
Inside the Garrison Camp, a commander was roaring: "Close the gate quickly, bring the flamethrowers! Bullets are useless!"
Normal guns might be effective against humans, but against this dense swarm of cockroaches, even if you emptied a whole clip, there wouldn’t be a visible reduction in the cockroaches, not even a noticeable difference from before.
So they could only use RPGs, airburst grenades, and flamethrowers.
When they saw the gate of the Garrison Camp lowering and the soldiers going to get the flamethrowers from the warehouse, the swarm of cockroaches, upon reaching the gate, only paused briefly before suddenly taking wing.
They saw them easily soaring into the sky, descending again like a dark cloud.
The garrison troops looked at this massive scene and began collapsing, "Holy crap, they’re wall-hacking!"
