Chapter 434 Meteorite

“.The observatory reports that at 21:37 Duling time, a super-large meteor shower will fall in the southwest suburbs. To avoid accidents, please try not to go out during the meteor shower...Please pay attention.”

The earth is shrouded in the night, and white lamp posts fall from time to time, breaking the darkness and illuminating a gap.

Those are the lights that the patrol mechas of the defense system outside the city occasionally cast on the ground when they fly high in the sky.

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

“Three minutes left”

One of the four raised his hand to check the time and reported in a low voice.

The remaining three people did not speak, all of them were teenagers who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old.

One of them always raised his head and looked at the dark sky intently. The other two, including the one who reported the time, one tall and one short, stood on his left and right sides like followers, swiping their phones from time to time.

The last boy seemed to be not very sociable. He stood a little far away from the other three, holding a shoulder bag on his waist tightly with both hands, and looked at them timidly.

The time on the three-dimensional light screen in the middle of the crowd was jumping every second.

When the three-minute countdown ended, several people subconsciously looked up.

Almost at the same time, in the dark sky above their heads, meteors fell like rain with brilliant flames.

The super-large meteor shower appeared exactly as the observatory predicted, and the eyes of the four boys who looked up at this scene all lit up.

It is said that this meteor shower was formed because of an asteroid that strayed into the star track.

The main body of the asteroid had been repeatedly shattered several times outside the planet. What appeared in front of them was just a little bit of meteorite residue that had not been completely wiped out.

Even with this little residue, the probability of falling to the ground "safely" is less than one in ten thousand.

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

In the eyes of the four teenagers, the spectacular scene of meteors falling halfway and then exploding into a ball of sparks and disappearing.

This process lasted for several minutes.

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

In the "lively" sparks, a few "slippery fish" successfully escaped the "hunting" of the defense system and fell down.

One of them seemed to land not far from where the four people were now.

"Let's go!"

The leading teenager among the four immediately retracted his gaze when he saw this, and quickly took out a capsule-sized object from his trouser pocket and threw it on the ground.

With a light "bang!" sound, a black off-road vehicle with rough lines and like a beast appeared out of thin air in the field.

The teenager jumped into the co-pilot of the car first, and then urged hurriedly.

"Don't waste time, get in the car quickly, the patrol mecha will be here later!"

The remaining few people reacted quickly, one of them got into the driver's seat skillfully, and the other quickly sat in the back seat.

The timid boy with a backpack on his back hesitated for a moment, and was yelled to get in the car.

The black off-road motor roared, running fast in the wilderness.

The boy in the co-pilot stood in his seat, most of his body leaned out of the car, staring at a fireball falling rapidly in the sky in the distance in front of him without blinking, his eyes were burning, and his face was full of excitement.

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

During the off-road driving, the boy in the driver's seat was controlling the car while asking his partner beside him boredly.

The boy standing at the front of the car with his hair flying in the night wind showed a hint of tenderness on his face, and replied: "It's Venia's birthday in a week, and I plan to give her a 'star'."

The two companions immediately showed an expression of "as expected" on their faces when they heard it.

The only person who could make the man in front of him so enthusiastic and attentive was probably his "goddess".

In the eyes of the two, this kind of romantic behavior of running out in the middle of the night to pick up stones as stars was really stupid. Even if it succeeded, it could only move themselves at best.

But as the other party's "follower", of course it is not easy to say such words to his face, so he can only mutter: "Why come to the wild to pick it up? This kind of thing can be sold casually on the Internet."

"You know shit."

The boy called Qiyuan directly retorted, "Can the broken stones bought online be the same as the ones I picked up myself?

Venya hates people who are insincere the most.

Hurry up.!"

The boy couldn't help but urge his companion in the driving seat, "Faster, if we are caught by the patrol mecha, we will be forcibly sent to Huicheng."

"The horsepower is already at its maximum"

"Don't talk nonsense to me, my car can reach a maximum speed of 380, how much is it now?"

While several teenagers were arguing, the boy sitting in the back seat holding the backpack tightly never said a word.

From time to time, he looked back at the direction of the main urban area that was getting farther and farther away from the few people, and then looked at the current time. It seemed that there were nails under his buttocks, and he was fidgeting.

After more than ten minutes, the speed of the black off-road vehicle gradually slowed down in the wilderness.

Before the car completely stopped, the young man in the passenger seat jumped out of the car and rushed to a certain position in front of the car.

The others followed suit.

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

This big pit created by the meteorite is only a dozen meters wide. Standing on the edge, you can see a faint glow of fire at the bottom of the pit.

It was the first time for several people to witness the scene of a meteorite falling to the ground, and they all looked curious.

Even the timid boy who was the most distant among the group seemed to have forgotten his troubles at this moment. He stretched his neck and looked down curiously beside the group.

As time passed, the glow of fire in the crater gradually extinguished, and the scorching heat generated when it fell to the ground also dropped rapidly.

The surroundings gradually darkened, and a faint golden light shone from the bottom of the crater that was gradually "cooling down".

"The depth is 17.8 meters, and the temperature in the pit has dropped below 300. The first-level protective suit is more than enough to cope with it.

Looking at the light of the meteorite, there may be some precious metals. Venia will definitely like it very much.

It's a pity that I can't bring my mecha out, otherwise it wouldn't be so troublesome."

The leading teenager excitedly used the instrument he carried with him to simply measure the situation in the meteorite crater, and then took out a capsule-shaped object from his pocket and threw it on the ground. With a "bang", it turned into a set of light white heavy protective clothing.

Then he glanced at the two followers beside him and asked: "Who of you two will go down?"

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

The two looked at the boy in front of them, and then at the crater emitting rolling heat waves, and forced a smile: "Qiyuan, you are not kidding, are you?"

"Who the hell is kidding you?"

The leading boy looked at the two with indifference and said: "Otherwise, why would I call you two out in the middle of the night?

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

Don't waste time, put on your protective clothing and go down quickly, don't make me wait too long."

The two followers looked at each other, and after staring at each other for a few seconds, one of them spoke first: "I just drove! You go!"

"I"

The other one was immediately speechless, and he also wanted to find a reason to prevaricate, but looking at the increasingly cold eyes of the leading boy, beads of sweat gradually seeped out of his forehead.

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

"Let him go!

Let this kid go! Young Master Lu!"

The henchman grabbed the timid boy with a backpack on his back and roughly pulled him to the front of the group, saying quickly: "This kid has been with us all the way and has done nothing. Let him go down and pick up stones."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the people on the field immediately fell on the timid boy who had always had little presence.

The latter was stared at by the eyes of the people, and when he heard what they wanted him to do, his expression suddenly became nervous.

He suddenly broke free from the hand of the henchman who was holding him, hugged the backpack in his arms, and turned around and ran without saying a word.
