I’m A Wasteland Giant Chapter 3

Chapter 3: A Chaotic First Day

Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The dark matter at the edge of the film spread throughout the entire solar system almost instantly.

The top of Earth wasn’t spared by the dark matter that couldn’t be observed by the naked eye either.

Unlike the bright and scorching afternoon in Nan Yuan City where Du Gang lived in, Trane City, which was across the ocean, was right in the middle of the night.

Or rather, at that moment, spatial channels of several meters appeared one after another on places that weren’t illuminated by the sun.

A steady stream of “cockroaches” that were three to four meters long and half a meter tall swarmed out of the spatial channels.

“Oh my God, what is that?”

“It’s disgusting…”

In Trane City, there was a group of night owls wandering in the streets. Suddenly, they were shocked by the “cockroach” that appeared in front of them.

And after the “cockroach” spotted them, not only were they not scared away, but they also pounced on the people like a shark that smelled blood.

——!

A cockroach that was still four to five meters away from the crowd immediately zoomed toward them.

Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!

One of the men who subconsciously raised his arm was bitten as blood spurted out of his wound.

“Ah!!!”

He let out an agonizing scream.

“F*ck!”

“F*ck!”

“F*ck!”

His partners were dumbfounded and couldn’t help but spew profanities one after another.

They were completely unaware of how far their voices traveled in the middle of the night as they shouted at the top of their lungs.

The tentacles on the head of the “cockroaches” twitched as soon as they detected the voices. And almost immediately, more “cockroaches” wildly darted toward the source of the sound like a cheerful husky that had just arrived on a wide snowfield for playtime.

Before the man who just lost an arm could scream for another second, a “cockroach” rapidly munched his skull.

“S-Sh*t…”

These people present had only lived through peaceful times and had never seen such horrors in their lives.

They were scared silly, not to mention stepping forward to offer help. Two timid men plopped onto the ground, and a steam of yellowish liquid immediately flowed from their crotches.

The other man who was brave enough to get on his hands and knees fled in the other direction.

The “cockroach” that killed their companion ignored the limp duo on the ground, as well as the man who escaped. It continued to savor its delicious meal on the ground and in just five seconds, it had completely devoured the man’s upper body.

“F-F*ck…” The two were so terrified that they couldn’t speak clearly. Their words started to sound like unconscious murmurs.

“Ah!!!”

Just when the two finally gathered their strength and crawled away from the place, they heard the screams of the man who escaped earlier in the distance.

At that moment, the scene before them made them fearful and desperate.

Numerous similar “cockroaches” were heading toward them in an overwhelming manner.

“F*ck!”

They only had time to curse once before the intrusion of “cockroaches” swarmed them. Within a second, both of them disappeared into thin air.

This scene didn’t just happen in Trane City, but everywhere where there was no presence of sunlight and but had a spatial channel!

Blare! Blare! Blare!

At that moment, the highest military alerts in all countries in the Eastern Hemisphere rang out almost simultaneously.

“Dark matter has filled the entire solar system, including Earth and especially throughout the Western Hemisphere. Several spatial channels that are several meters in size appeared, and countless otherworldly creatures have come to us…”

“These monsters show a strong bloodlust. Almost all humans they encountered became their food…”

“According to the analysis of global satellite data, these inter-dimensional spatial channels are appearing in places where sunlight can’t reach and have been shifting to the east…”

Yang Xiaotian frowned and quickly said, “You guys mean that when it gets dark, a spatial channel will be created and those things will appear?”

“Yes!”

“How long do we have before the last ray of sun disappears in China?”

“China spans five time zones; the earliest sunset is still four hours away…”

Without any hesitation, Yang Xiaotian commanded: “Pass the order. Make all the citizens stay in their homes and prohibit them from wandering outside. Caution them to lock all doors and windows… We can’t… hide this secret any longer!”

At that moment, a representative of the brain trust quickly stepped forward, “On Earth, there are two areas that are polar in day and night. The Arctic Circle, right now, is under the polar day. Please go to the Arctic Circle and command remotely…”

“Command remotely?”

Yang Xiaotian became somewhat furious. “The entirety of the world is going to be done for. Why do I still need to go to the Arctic Circle?”

Despite the criticism, he quickly calmed down and continued. “Inform the administration and scientists to retreat and head to the Arctic Circle!”

“Chief, what about you?”

“I’ll stay here. You’re responsible for leading the scientists and prioritizing their retreat!”

News was all over that day.

What happened in the Western Hemisphere hardly needed any official notification. Just the local agencies that shared satellite information were enough to spread the news all over the country.

The military’s deduction to the situation had also spread all over the world in an instant.

Those of the wealthy class made every effort to escape in a private plane. Those who didn’t own a private plane bought the worst seats at the most expensive prices, just to get their hands on a ticket that would fly them to places with high latitudes.

On that day, planes in every country filled up and took off in the shortest possible time. None of the planes followed the usual routes, but flew toward the north, side by side, instead.

In addition to that, the same thing happened to almost all means of sea transportation, such as ferries, cruise ships, and motor boats.

However, compared to the fact that there were planes everywhere, only some of the people living in the seaside cities could escape on boats without any problems.

Moreover, the people who lost their minds and just wanted to escape north, completely disregarded whether the congested highways were viable at that moment. They jumped into their cars and drove off right away.

If those people did a little math, they would know that four or five hours, even on a non-congested highway, wouldn’t be enough for them to drive out of their respective provinces, let alone flee to the Arctic Circle.

On that day, all programs were off air, and on TV, only a single headline looped with an announcer broadcasting a message for everyone to stay home.
