Chapter 434 Meteorite

". The Observatory reported that at 21:37, Duoling time, a very large meteor shower will land in the southwest suburban area. To avoid accidents, the general public is requested not to go out during the meteor shower time. Please pay attention to the general public. "

 The land shrouded in night, white lampposts would hang down from time to time, breaking through the darkness and illuminating a gap.

Those are the lights that occasionally fall to the ground when the patrol mecha of the city's defense system flies through the sky.

Above the black wilderness, several figures stood at the bottom of a slightly arched hillside, as if waiting for something.

 “There are three minutes left”

 One of the four people raised his hand and looked at the time, reporting in a low voice.

No one spoke to the remaining three, all of whom looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old.

One of them always raised his head and stared intently at the dark sky. The other two, including the one who reported the time, one tall and one short, stood on his left and right like followers, constantly checking their mobile phones.

The last boy didn't seem to be very gregarious. He stood a little far away from the other three, clutching a satchel on his waist with both hands and looking at them timidly.

　　The time projected on the three-dimensional light screen in the middle of the crowd jumped every minute.

 “Stop inking, get in the car quickly, the patrol mecha will be here later!”

Amidst the excitement, several "fish that slipped through the net" successfully escaped the "predation" of the defense system and fell toward the bottom.

With a soft sound of "Bang!", a black off-road vehicle with rough lines and a beast-like shape appeared out of thin air.

 The young man who was the leader of the four people immediately withdrew his gaze when he saw this, quickly took out a capsule-sized object from his pants pocket and threw it on the ground.

This process lasted for several minutes.

"Walk!"

Almost at the same time, in the dark sky above their heads, meteors trailed down like rain, trailing brilliant flames.

Perhaps the scale of the meteor shower tonight is indeed a bit large.

The young man in the passenger seat stood with most of his body leaning out of the car, staring unblinkingly at a fireball falling rapidly in the sky in the distance ahead, his eyes burning, and his face full of excitement.

One of them seems to have landed not far from where the four of them are now.

The young man jumped into the passenger seat first, and then shouted urgently.

The remaining people reacted quickly, one person got into the driver's seat skillfully, and the other quickly got into the back seat.

It is said that this meteor shower was caused by an asteroid that accidentally entered the star orbit.

The eyes of the four teenagers soon reflected the spectacular scene of meteors falling in half before exploding into a ball of sparks and disappearing.

The timid boy carrying a satchel hesitated for a moment, then was yelled at to get in the car.

The main body of the asteroid had been repeatedly smashed several times outside the planet. What appeared in front of them and turned into meteors was just a bit of meteorite residue that had not been completely erased.

The black off-road motor roared and raced quickly in the wilderness.

  Even with this little bit of debris, the probability of falling to the ground “safely” is less than one in 10,000.

 The "autonomous defense system" covering the entire metropolis will accurately lock on the meteors when they approach and crush them one by one.

 When the three-minute countdown ended, several people subconsciously raised their heads.

Exactly one second ahead of the time predicted by the observatory, a super-large meteor shower appeared. The eyes of the four teenagers who looked up at this scene all lit up.

“Qiyuan, why do you have to pick up a meteorite?”

While driving cross-country, the young man in the driver's seat was controlling the car while asking his companions beside him boredly.

Standing on the front of the car against the night wind, with a hint of tenderness on his face, the young man's hair was in a mess, and he replied: "Venia's birthday is in a week, and I plan to give her a 'star'."

 The two companions immediately had such expressions on their faces after hearing this.

 The only person who can make the man in front of me so enthusiastic and caring is probably his "goddess".

From the perspective of the two of them, this kind of romantic behavior of running out to pick up stones as stars in the middle of the night is really stupid. Even if it is done, it will only impress themselves at best. But as the other party's "follower", of course it's not easy to say this in person. I can only mutter casually: "Then why come to pick it up in the wild? Such things are not easily sold online."

 “You know nothing.”

The young man known as Qiyuan retorted directly, "Can the broken rocks I bought online be the same as the ones I picked up myself?

Vinya hates insincere people the most.

 Hurry up.! "

As he spoke, the young man couldn't help but urge his companion in the driver's seat, "Hurry up, if we are caught by the patrol mecha, we will be forcibly sent to Huicheng."

 “The horsepower has been turned on to the maximum”

“Don’t talk nonsense to me. The top speed of my car is 380. How much is it now?”

While several teenagers were noisy, the young man sitting in the back row clutching his satchel tightly remained silent.

From time to time, he looked back towards the main city area, which was getting farther and farther away from the others, and then looked at the current time. His buttocks seemed to be covered with nails and he was restless.

Ten minutes later, the speed of the black off-road vehicle gradually slowed down in the wilderness.

Before the car came to a complete stop, the young man in the passenger seat had already jumped out of the car and rushed towards a location directly in front of the car.

Several other people also got off the car.

The group finally stopped in front of a large pit with green smoke.

This large crater made by a meteorite from the sky is only a dozen meters wide. Standing on the edge, you can see the faint light of fire under the crater.

This was the first time for several people to witness the scene of a meteorite falling to the ground with their own eyes, and they all had a look of novelty on their faces.

Even the timid young man with the most distant relationship among the group of people seemed to have forgotten his troubles at this moment. He followed the group of people and stretched his neck to look down curiously.

As time goes by, the firelight from the crater gradually extinguishes, and the blazing high temperature generated when it hits the ground is also rapidly decreasing.

The surrounding area gradually darkened, but a faint golden light shone through the bottom of the crater that gradually "cooled".

“At a depth of 17.8 meters, the temperature in the pit has dropped below 300, and first-level protective clothing is more than enough to cope with it.

 Look at this meteorite light, it may contain some kind of precious precious metal, Viniya will definitely like it very much.

 It’s a pity that I can’t bring my mecha out, otherwise I wouldn’t have gone to such trouble. "

The leading boy looked excited and briefly measured the situation in the crater with the instrument he carried. Then he took out a capsule-like thing from his pocket and threw it on the ground. It turned into a set of light white with a "bang" sound. Heavy protective clothing.

He then glanced at the two followers beside him and asked: "Which one of you is going down?"

 The two teenagers who were taking photos and videos of the crater with their mobile phones were stunned when they heard this.

The two of them looked at the young man in front of them, then at the crater that was emitting billowing heat, and forced a smile: "Qiyuan, are you kidding me?"

 “Who the **** is kidding you?”

The leading young man looked at the two of them indifferently and said, "Why else would I ask you two to come out so late at night?

You can’t possibly think that I will go down in person, right?

Stop inking, put on protective clothing and get out quickly, don’t let me wait too long.”

The two young boys who followed him looked at each other in confusion. After looking at each other for a few seconds, one of them spoke first: "I just drove! You go!"

"I"

The other person was immediately at a loss for words. He also wanted to find an excuse to excuse himself, but looking at the leading boy's increasingly cold eyes, large beads of sweat gradually seeped out on his forehead.

 Suddenly, he glanced to his side and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"let him!

 Let this guy go down! Mr. Lu! "

The follower grabbed the timid young man carrying the satchel next to him, pulled him roughly to a few people, and said quickly: "This kid has been with us all the way, and he hasn't done anything. We just let him go down to pick up stones."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of several people on the scene suddenly fell on the timid young man who had always had no sense of existence.

 The latter was stared at by several people, and when he heard what they wanted him to do, his expression suddenly became tense.

Suddenly he broke away from the hand holding his follower, hugged the satchel in his arms, turned around and ran away without saying a word.
