Chapter 537: Meteorite Falling From the Sky

That was a huge fireball.

A fireball falling from the sky.

Even from so far away, it could still be seen that it was a fireball.

It was unclear exactly how big this fireball was, but using the city below, which looked like a small black dot, as a reference, then this fireball was about the same size as the city.

In short, it was quite terrifying.

"A fireball!"

"Idiot! That's a shooting star!"

"Shooting star my ass! You're a fucking idiot too, that's a meteorite! Run, fucking run!"

Compared to some people who had already been scared silly, the captain was slightly more clear-headed.

And the team members, after being roasted by the captain, also woke up.

Meteorite.

That's right, that thing falling from the sky wasn't some fireball, but a huge meteorite trailing flames.

Although...

Alright, there's no although.

Anyone with a bit of brains knew clearly what the consequences would be if a meteorite about the size of a city fell to the ground.

So they also followed behind the captain and started running wildly.

When starting to move, someone even took out another speed potion to replenish themselves.

As long as they didn't run themselves to death, they would run for dear life.

At this moment, they incomparably envied the flying brooms in the hands of the Black Witches.

If they had that kind of transportation, not to mention the Rolling Thunder Wilderness, they could come and go freely even through high mountains and lofty hills.

But saying all this now was in vain.

It would be best if they could reach a shelter before the meteorite fell.

Otherwise, they would definitely be implicated by the meteorite.

In fact, this was indeed the case.

Even if they drank speed potions, how could two legs outrun a meteorite falling from the sky?

Therefore, while this group of people... no, while everyone was running for their lives, planning to find a place to lay low.

The meteorite smashed heavily into the ground, just as everyone had imagined.

Subsequently setting off a massive shockwave.

"Jump!"

Compared to others, this group of people was lucky.

Right in front of them was a chasm about ten meters deep.

This was a place they often visited for gathering, hunting, and doing missions, which was why the captain ran in this direction.

And before the visible shockwave arrived, their group finally leaped into this gully with a stream at the bottom under the captain's command.

What followed was a tsunami-like impact and violently shaking earth.

"We're going to die, we're going to die!"

"Shut up, feel it with your heart!"

"Feel my ass! If we hadn't run fast, us brothers would have definitely met our end here today."

Squatting under the wall of the ditch, several people looked at the opposite wall with gloomy faces.

Because that side directly faced the shockwave, the upper end of the ditch wall was basically scraped off at an unknown angle.

This wasn't just a section, but the entire chasm was like this.

In short, the topography of this chasm was slightly altered due to this shockwave.

"Wait, why do I feel like even the originally gloomy sky has brightened up a bit?"

After the violent shaking passed, the captain looked up at the sky above.

The Rolling Thunder Wilderness was most famous for its highly random lightning strikes.

This was the main reason why people in all surrounding areas didn't want to step in here.

Although the lightning strikes were the result of the gathering of thunder-element magic power in the air.

The gloomy sky and the daily rain also played a part.

Yet now, a clear sky actually appeared!

They could even see sunlight piercing through the dark clouds and shining on the earth!

This was something unimaginable in the past.

"Who's going up to take a look?"

With his curiosity piqued, the captain asked his teammates beside him, who were in just as sorry a state as he was.

"Let's not for now. After all, it just fell; maybe the dust is coming next."

"Indeed. With this time, we might as well run further. How many meters have we even run? Probably not even ten kilometers."

"Ten kilometers..."

Hearing this unit, everyone's mouths couldn't help but twitch.

Good heavens, they had never run this far in their entire lives.

Even when they encountered danger in dungeons before, they hadn't run this fast or this far.

Now... sigh...

How many chances in a lifetime does a person get to be scared by a meteorite into going all out?

So ah, stop complaining.

"Let's run. We've already run this far anyway. I don't want to run for half the day only to end up eating dust there."

The captain had figured it out.

This kind of clash between big shots was not something they could get involved in; it was best not to even pass by them to buy soy sauce.

Otherwise, you wouldn't even know what kind of hellish painting you'd be swept into.

As for the transport plan they were enthusiastically discussing earlier, the captain completely threw it to the back of his mind.

From the sight he had just seen, that meteorite was definitely heading for the city.

So whatever transport plan, whatever striking it rich on the spot, there was no need to mention it anymore.

Thus, the regretful captain stood up, got his bearings, and walked along the gully towards the upstream of the stream.

In that direction was his shelter, and also the entire squad's shelter.

Seeing this, the team members didn't say much and followed.

After all, compared to eating dust outside, the air quality inside the shelter was better, and it was safer.

Day after day, a witch attack, then a monster appearing, and finally a meteorite falling from the sky.

Right now, what they lacked the most was a sense of security.

On the other side.

While they were dejectedly hurrying home, the world channel became lively once again.

Originally, because of the witches' 'curtain call', the world channel had returned to its normal message sending speed.

But not long after, someone posted a series of highly informative and quite explosive photos on it.

"What is this?"

"I saw a shooting star."

"Idiot, that's a meteorite."

"Meteorite?"

"Yes, right above the Rolling Thunder Wilderness."

"A meteorite in the Rolling Thunder Wilderness, huh? What exactly is going on?"

"Can someone in the Rolling Thunder Wilderness talk about the situation? Waiting online, quite eager to watch the drama."

Even for the onlookers watching the drama, some things couldn't be done just by holding a melon and watching from the sidelines.

For an apocalyptic scene like this that they had never seen before, no matter what, they needed to understand it thoroughly.

After all, they might just encounter it themselves someday.

One must know that this was a magic world more magical than fantasy novels.

Anything was possible.

"Where's the scumbag who took the photos? You just threw a few photos out and ran off, huh? I wish you sleep paralysis every night."

"No need to ask, I'll tell you. Just now, the Adventurer City in the Rolling Thunder Wilderness was razed to the ground."

"No, a huge crater appeared directly."

"Are you guys even human? With so much smoke and dust right now, you can actually see so clearly?"

"Yeah, a mushroom cloud has appeared. I don't believe you can see through such thick smoke and dust."

"Oh, because I'm the one who dealt with that meteorite."
