Chapter 10, Clamor

Zhou Liming suddenly shivered, his keen senses allowing him to hear every sound occurring nearby with remarkable clarity. This was absolutely impossible in the past, yet it was undeniably happening now. Zhou Liming did not have the time to ponder the reasons behind this; his thoughts were focused on the cries of anguish around him.

Like a chain reaction, monstrous beasts burst forth from within each black sphere, appearing in the sight of humanity

A fishing boat owner ordered his crew to stop the vessel, walked to the side of the boat, leaned against the railing, and gazed at the countless black spheres below. Lacking composure, he immediately began to curse loudly. These black spheres appeared to be light and buoyant, and despite his anger, the boat owner did not dare to instruct his crew to ram the boat into them; who knew what those strange things were?

The incoming and outgoing vessels could still evade just moments ago, but as the number of these black spheres increases, the only way to avoid colliding with these strange black spheres is to bring the ship to a halt

People working by the seaside stared curiously at these black spheres. The individuals on the ships entering and leaving the port pointed and exclaimed at these black spheres. Initially, there were only a few of these black spheres, but then they began to emerge continuously like bubbles from the seabed, quickly filling the entire nearshore area.

A week ago, I was still a good student in the eyes of my teacher and a well-behaved child in the eyes of the dean. However, a week later, I transformed into a delinquent student who fights at school and a murderer in society. This was something Zhou Liming could never have imagined, yet it has indeed happened.

Not correct

In the police station where Zhou Liming was located, the sound of running footsteps echoed intermittently, and piercing alarm bells rang out. Police cars rushed out of the station with a wail. Shouts and whispers could be heard, triggering waves of panic. The officers on duty hurriedly ran outside, and within moments, the entire police station fell silent, with no one paying any attention to the detained Zhou Liming.

Ah, monsters, monsters..." The terrified cries of the people rang out as the hideous and fearsome monsters emerged from the broken bodies and surged toward the coastline. Some ships that were close to the black spheres were climbed upon by the monsters, unleashing a brutal massacre.

The effects of incendiary devices are far from the perfection envisioned at https://m.hetushu.com. Unknown creatures have no concept of fear.

Zhou Liming was aware that chaos was unfolding outside, or rather, that a significant event was occurring, yet he had no means of understanding what exactly was happening

On the dock, all the workers have put down their tasks and turned to gaze at the strange sight on the sea surface

What the hell are these things

Amidst the echoes of blood-curdling roars, there are the cries of the people, occasionally accompanied by the sounds of collapsing buildings

The chaos of the city outside is further intensifying at this moment

The ships on the sea have come to a halt, and all the people on board are staring in astonishment at the attacking fighter jets.

The roar of fighter jets still echoes in the sky, and the sound of explosions from missiles hitting their targets seems to occur right beside the ears

Feeling somewhat frustrated, Zhou Liming once again withdrew his heightened sensitivity to sound and murmured, "What has happened? What does it have to do with me? After all, I have killed someone!" He silently sat down, hugging his knees, burying his head in them. The events of the past few days had been too chaotic and mysterious. The scales on his body and his transformed physique—Zhou Liming could not comprehend the reasons behind all of this.

The strange chirping of "jiji" appeared on the street in front of the Public Security Bureau, resembling a vast number of crawling insects moving and producing a rustling sound.

Zhou Liming certainly could not know any of this. He was awakened the next day by the sound of a violent explosion. From the moment he opened his eyes, he was met with the terrified shouts of people and the incessant honking of cars. There were curses and heart-wrenching screams. These sounds surged into Zhou Liming's ears all at once, making him think he was still trapped in a dream.

"Call 1, target acquired, fire at will under the premise of ensuring the safety of maritime vessels"

After a long while, as I lifted my head, my gaze swept over the cold fast food in front of the iron gate, and a rumble of hunger echoed from my stomach

The energy consumed yesterday made Zhou Liming disregard everything else, rushing to the iron gate, grabbing this cold fast food, and devouring it hungrily.

During dinner, the on-duty police officer delivered a simple meal, a fast food order costing five yuan, which was passed through a small opening at the iron gate. The on-duty police officer paid no attention to Zhou Liming's silent demeanor, simply called out that it was time to eat, and then turned to leave

Zhou Liming then listened carefully; apart from a faint breathing sound not far from his side, the Public Security Bureau had become completely empty.

The fighter jets, long awaiting in the sky, did not need to discern the dense cluster of black spheres on the sea surface upon their discovery. Under the command from the control center, each fighter jet emitted a sharp whistle as they swooped down from high altitudes. Upon reaching the launch angle, incendiary bombs detached from their wings and plunged toward the sea. After launching, the fighter jets abruptly raised their noses again.

The entire lengthy coastline of the East China Sea is submerged under this wave of ferocious beasts. The countries surrounded by the dark ocean are in an even more dire situation; without any depth zones, they seem destined for a certain fate. As the last region to erupt, the Pacific actually has a gap of less than ten hours from the Indian Ocean.

This is a placeholder text.

A regular fast food meal simply cannot satisfy Zhou Liming's appetite. After discarding the empty lunch box, he returned to the corner, lost in thought, occasionally glancing at his hands, which appeared normal yet concealed a surging power within. The shadow of yesterday's transformation still loomed over his heart.

Countless people on the ship, clutching mice, let out terrified screams and hurriedly took refuge in the cabin

The city suddenly became lively under the sunlight, with numerous small black spheres floating up from the sea.

As the incendiary device made contact with the surface of the sea, a tremendous explosion echoed, and a massive fireball surged outward within a radius of several dozen meters, enveloping all the black spheres in that area under the searing flames. Great plumes of fire shot into the air, and in an instant, the entire surface of the sea was covered in raging flames. The black spheres floating on the water emitted a sound akin to sizzling, reminiscent of frying, under the intense heat.

What do they want to do

Roar ... ...

Outside the street, there are sounds of people running for their lives. Occasionally, someone rushes into the police station, creating a flurry of activity. The first few groups even express joy, likely having found what they needed. However, those who enter the police station afterward leave cursing, joining the ranks of those fleeing for their lives

The attack of the fighter jets was akin to poking a hornet's nest. From the variously sized black spheres came the sound of tearing roars, filled with anger and fury. These black spheres, ignited by incendiary bombs, contained ferocious beasts that emitted waves of strange howls, struggling with all their might. Their strong and sharp claws tore through the membranes of the black spheres, allowing them to break free from within
