Chapter 254 Extraterrestrial Devil Insect? (2)


However, since they were in charge of various cities, the Martial Suppression Offices’ Commanders of City Governance naturally had to cooperate with the City Guards.


This was stipulated by the cabinet.


The City Guards could not dispatch the Commanders of City Governance, but if anything happened to the City Guards, the Commanders would still have to bear the responsibility. The two forces supported each other and also restrained each other.


Therefore, when the Prefecture Chief scolded the City Guards, Commanders also indirectly took some of it. Through the Blood Doppelganger, Su Jingxing could not see the expressions of Li Linzhou and the others. However, he knew that their expressions must be complicated.

!!

Find the source of the self-combustion?


While it sounded nice, it would be extraordinarily difficult to take action. In any case, no one had discovered anything.


It was because once the people began burning, they would be reduced to ashes in less than ten seconds. It all happened too quickly.


So quickly that no one could react or stop it.


Without corpses to study, how could they find the source?


This was a dead end to begin with. Without a start, how could investigations be launched?


Silence. Only silence. Everyone fell silent after the Prefecture Chief ended his scolding.


Just as Su Jingxing thought that the video conference was over, the Prefecture Chief spoke again. His voice came through the speakers.


“If you can’t find the reason, lower the self-combustion rate!


“The a.n.a.lysis online is very accurate. The people who have died of self-combustion died because their emotions were too agitated.


“Regardless of the truth, while we have not found the reason, keeping people calm is the best solution for now.


“After the meeting is over, immediately pa.s.s down orders to use all channels to keep the people from making a big fuss over the next few days. It’s best if everyone can keep calm.


“Alright, the meeting is over. Dismissed!”


The video conference ended.


After a moment of silence, Li Linzhou and the Qinghe City Guard continued to video call each other to discuss how to carry out the publicity.


The impact of this incident was too great. Li Linzhou was also going to appear on television.


In the past, Li Linzhou rarely appeared on television, but this time, he had no choice but to do so.


As the number one expert in Qinghe City, Li Linzhou’s words carried more weight and faith than the City Guard.


Through his Blood Doppelganger, Su Jingxing continued to listen for a moment. Seeing that there was no other news, he immediately moved silently to another corner to prevent Li Linzhou from noticing.


The Prefecture Chief had given orders to appease the various cities. This matter was inevitable.


Su Jingxing’s main body was at home. He switched on the television and waited for an hour or so. As expected, he saw Li Linzhou appear on the television for a live broadcast.


The broadcast was also available simultaneously online.


Similar activities were going on in other cities, the Qianyan Prefecture, the Dashun Prefecture, and the Baiyin Prefecture.


The officials personally appeared to get everyone to keep calm. Early the next morning, the television stations, the Internet, radio broadcasts, newspapers, and other channels continued the publicity.


When the residents in the cities saw this, they reacted differently. The residents of the functional towns reacted much more simply.


The fewer people there were, the fewer conflicts there would be, and naturally, there would be fewer incidents.


It was different in the city. Every city in Yu Nation had a population of about 10 million people.


The larger ones, the 18 prefecture cities, had between 8 to 15 million people.


The capital was an exception, it had a population of more than 20 million people.


With more people, there would naturally be more conflicts and more trouble.


As such, even though the government was publicizing and appealing, conflicts still erupted from time to time.


In the end, after a day, there were more than 300 self-combustion cases in the four prefectures.


This number was only those exposed on the Internet. In reality, there were more than 600 cases.


The number of cases had multiplied by ten again!


The situation immediately caused panic.


In the cities that were exposed, the residents were all in a state of panic, paranoia, afraid that their emotions would become agitated and they would strangely self-combust.


The crematorium’s farewell ceremony hall also became silent at once. Farewell ceremonies were stopped. Those who died from illness, accidents, or jumped off buildings were sent straight to the incinerator.


Logically speaking, once things calmed down, the frequency of conflict would decrease.


It was difficult for one’s emotions to become intense when they were stable.


However, for some reason, the invisible danger that Su Jingxing sensed grew stronger and stronger.


The unknown threat was getting closer and more prominent.


At night, Wu Shouhan slept. In his dreams, he dreamed of himself self-combusting and burning to death.


Su Jingxing tried to sleep, but he didn’t dream of self-combustion. Instead, he dreamed of boundless darkness.


This was the feedback from daydreaming too much.


It had nothing to do with the source of the self-combustion.


In the past, it would be the best news if there was no relations.h.i.+p.


But right now, Su Jingxing wasn’t in the least bit happy.


The danger was getting closer and closer, but no one knew what it was.


Things were developing as he had expected.


Not only did it not get better, it was getting worse!


The next day, the number of cases exceeded 2,000 online, but the actual number was more than 6,000.


Another ten-fold increase!


This time, everyone in the dozens of cities of the four prefectures–Changyang, Baiyin, Dashun, and Qianyan panicked.


Those with connections, and money all escaped to other prefectures. This was because none of the other dozen or so prefectures in the Yu Nation had seen any self-combustion cases!


More than 6,000 self-combustion cases were concentrated in the four prefectures.


How could the people of the four prefectures not be afraid?


Even Su Jingxing wanted to escape, let alone ordinary people.


However, that night, Su Jingxing flew on his sword to the southernmost area on his sword and tried to sense the danger.


He similarly sensed a terrifying danger approaching!


This meant that there was an invisible danger, and the strange self-combustion wouldn’t always be limited to the four prefecturesChangyang, Baiyin, Qianyan, and Dashun.


It would spread to other prefectures!


Escaping to other prefectures was useless. It was only a matter of time.


Su Jingxing didn’t know if anyone else had discovered this, but he felt his scalp tingle.


The strange self-combustion that affected the entire Yu Nation was now a natural disaster, even if it wasn’t at first.


That night, a video conference with many people of even higher level was secretly held.


Through his Blood Doppelganger, Su Jingxing listened to the voices of the other Prefecture Chiefs of the Yu Nation’s 18 prefectures and the big shots in the cabinet.


Within a day, there were more than 6,000 self-combustion cases. The cabinet could not help but feel nervous. “Everyone, to this day, I believe everyone is aware of the number of people who have died in the self-combustion cases. But what I want to say is, according to the latest intelligence, the first case of self-combustion was not the cheating husband from the Baiyin Prefecture, but the self-combusting corpse in the Qianyan Prefecture!


“That’s right. Everyone, you didn’t hear wrongly. The first case of self-combustion this time was in the crematorium at the foot of the Eastern District’s mountain in the Qianyan Prefecture’s Fog City. A corpse that was placed in the morgue suddenly self-combusted. After that, the crematorium concealed the matter because it was afraid of causing trouble. The family members didn’t know, and neither did the City Guard of Fog City.


“Therefore, self-combustion was not targeted at living people at the very beginning, but corpses!


“Although these corpses had died because they were too agitated and they only self-combusted after that, there are still doubts. Why did it start with corpses?”


There was a moment of silence.


“I have something to say about this. Could the source of the self-combustion be related to corpses?”


“General Yang, are you talking about the Corpse-raising Devil Insect?”


“Not the Corpse-raising Devil Insect, but the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect! Could the self-immolation case be caused by a new kind of Extraterrestrial Devil Insect? Some Extraterrestrial Devil Insects don’t have physical bodies and are purely energy bodies. We can’t see them with the naked eye. If these Extraterrestrial Devil Insects cause trouble and burrow into the human body and then ignite them through intense emotional fluctuations, wouldn’t that cause strange self-combustion?”


“That makes sense! Once self-combustion begins, people are reduced to ashes in less than 10 seconds. There won’t even be time to examine them. If this is really the doing of the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect, and the insect is also burnt to ashes, we really won’t know about it.”


“Is there such an Extraterrestrial Devil Insect? If there is, it should have appeared long ago. Why are there no records from before?”


“No one knows how many types of Extraterrestrial Devil Insects there are to begin with. Who knows how many types there are?”


“Agreed. The source of the self-combustion cases is most likely caused by the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect. Once we find this Extraterrestrial Devil Insect, we should be able to crack this and prevent the self-combustion from continuing.”


“The problem is how would we find it? There are so many people. Who will self-destruct? Who won’t? No one knows. We can’t possibly scan everyone with Martial Art True Intent, right?”


“Then what do you suggest we do?”


“I think…”


“Everyone!”


A deep voice suddenly sounded, suppressing the others.


“Everyone, stop talking about the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect. The self-combustion cases have nothing to do with it!”
