Apocalypse: Infinite Supplies System - Chapter 129

Chapter 129: Meteorite Impact
After their passionate encounter in the room, Alex breathed out a sigh of relief, leaning back against the headboard, looking somewhat conflictedly at Olivia.

“Olivia, have you figured out how to face Mia?”

Smack! Olivia pursed her lips, lifting her head.

“It was Mia who encouraged me to come over. She said you’re passive, so I should take the initiative.”

Then she lowered her head without saying another word.

Hiss! Alex sucked in a sharp breath.

“So, it’s the two of you scheming together, huh? I see, both of you are craving for me!”

“Pfft!”

Alex froze.

Olivia froze too.

This laughter came from outside the room…

The door cracked open.

Mia apologized verbally, but her face was smiling.

“Sorry, I didn’t come at the right time.”

“Come here!”

Alex raised an eyebrow.

Mia obediently walked over, seemingly scared she had angered Alex.

“What’s wrong?”

Alex’s originally stern face gradually softened into a smile.

“You came at just the right time!”

Then, he pulled Mia and Olivia into his embrace.

That night, the three slept together.

…

After breaking the ice, the three got along even better.

Meanwhile, the meteorite rain began to fall.

The old city was the first to be hit.

Every survivor could receive videos and news updates through the system announcements.

Everyone was hiding in underground bunkers. If there were no updates from the system, no one could know the specifics of the meteorite rain.

Alex saw a video.

A group of zombies gathered in the old city, looking up at the meteorite with a long tail like an arrowhead approaching them.

Roar! The zombies were uncomfortable due to the increasingly high temperature brought by the approaching meteorite, roaring in agony.

It seemed that this kind of roar would make them feel cooler.

The next moment, the meteorite fell.

Through the screen, Alex could clearly see the distorted air caused by the high temperature.

After a burst of white light, a large crater appeared in the picture.

It was several meters deep, with a diameter comparable to a standard football field.

And those zombies, located in the deep pit, were completely obliterated.

“Alex, what are you watching?”

Mia leaned on Alex’s back, her arms around his shoulders.

Seeing Alex engrossed in the video, she asked.

Olivia also approached, curious to see the video.

Alex didn’t stop them, instead, he pulled them into his embrace, projecting the video played by the system on the screen for them to see the destruction caused by the recent meteorite impact.

After watching the video, Mia and Olivia fell silent.

They were shocked by the devastation of this disaster.

And this was just the beginning.

Next, there would be more meteorite showers.

They dared not imagine how great the disaster would be when those meteorites hit.

If they hit the villa area, would the underground bunker really be able to withstand it…

Seeing his two women full of worry, Alex gently stroked their hair, comforting, “It’s okay, don’t be afraid. We’re probably the only high-level underground bunker in this city. If we can’t withstand the meteorite showers, then this meteorite shower is truly a system-designed extermination of all of us.”

Mia sighed in frustration.

“Hey, I wonder how many survivors will perish this time,” she said.

Though the system had given survivors a month to prepare for the meteor shower onslaught, gathering resources and constructing underground bunkers proved impossible for many of the city’s hundreds of thousands of survivors.

In times of chaos, the majority of resources were in the hands of those with weapons. The simple truth was that facing large groups of just a few hundred people, some lower-tier teams, and even groups of over a thousand huddling together for warmth, dared not confront head-on.

In this era of firearms, sheer numbers couldn’t bridge the gap. Without weapons, in this post-apocalyptic world, survival was more precarious than facing zombies.

Hence, the vast majority of these survivors would perish in this catastrophic meteor shower.

Some survivors might maintain optimism. Having struggled for so long, they might choose to shout “God!” when the meteor struck them, resigned to their fate.

Others, unable to find a way to survive, would shed a tear and await death in silence.

Olivia remained silent. Unlike Mia, she was not as sentimental. Since arriving in this apocalyptic world, she had witnessed too much cannibalism. Human life had become insignificant to her.

Alex opened the chat channel and found many survivors sharing their thoughts. It appeared both ludicrous and desolate.

[Chat Channel]

ID 567457: “I’m about to die. I’m in the old city area, not killed by the meteor but dying of thirst! There’s not a drop of water left!”

“Heh, after the meteor hits, the high ground temperatures will dehydrate you, not to mention the radiation…”

ID 364573: “It’s truly tragic. Those with means have all hidden in underground bunkers, living worry-free. Only we, the survivors who are worse off than ants, are left on the surface, living second by second!”

ID 834567: “I really don’t want to die! I’ve damn well fought so hard to survive in this post-apocalyptic world, why? Why is this happening? Damn it!”

ID 84566: “Hey, bro, I’m even worse off than you. I’m damn well trapped on the streets of the old city area. Can’t get back to the underground bunker. It’s damn well useless. Unjust!”

Similar desperate messages flooded the chat channel endlessly. There were just too many.

In the face of death, everyone sought someone to confide in. The chat channel had become their final refuge.

They frantically flooded the chat channel with messages, even though many survivors residing in underground bunkers were cursing them.

ID 474633: “Damn it! When will you all stop! If you’re gonna die, die further away. What’s the point of spamming the chat channel? Whether you live or die has nothing to do with us! Who do you think you are, a hero?”

ID 364563: “Exactly! A bunch of weaklings who can’t even build underground bunkers. Dying is no different from insects dying. Still spamming here, really annoying!”

ID 734534: “We just like to vent! Come on, hit me! Come up to the surface! Hahaha!”

Survivors living in underground bunkers naturally couldn’t venture to the surface. With the massive radiation and high temperatures brought by the meteor shower, only fools would go up and meet their demise.

These survivors on the surface would all perish within the next day or two.

The heated argument continued.

After a while, the system played another video.

Once again, it was from the old city area.

This time, several meteors fell consecutively.

And it didn’t stop there.

Even the densely populated central area began to see meteor impacts.

They came one after another!

There was nowhere to hide from the onslaught of the meteor shower.

If so, it’s just that I was lucky and came later than others.
