Chapter 519: Chapter 345 Faster Than a Shooting Star_1

Feng Yi had been staking out meteors these past few days, and even when he was asleep at night, he was not in a state of complete dormancy; he could wake up at any moment if there was any movement and enter a working state.

In the sky, an enormous net made of energy stretched into space, quietly placed there until it sensed an approaching celestial body.

Unlike the smaller meteor fragments from before, this time, it was a genuine "big fish" level!

The "big fish" made contact with the energy net, and the resulting energy fluctuation feedback instantly woke Feng Yi from his sleep.

He flipped out of bed, and in the next moment, he was by the window.

At that time, the "big fish" was not visible outside the window.

It had not begun to burn noticeably yet.

"It’s kind of big."

Feng Yi felt the information from the energy fluctuation feedback and started to operate.

He had already practiced his skills on those smaller meteors during this period, and if nothing else, he had become skillful at locking onto targets.

The energy net quickly captured and precisely anchored the target.

In this process, Feng Yi still had to solve a problem.

He had considered this issue before.

If this "big fish" had a large initial mass and could not entirely burn up in the air, some parts would fall to the ground, potentially passing over areas crowded with people, posing a certain danger.

But if its landing spot were to shift towards a farther, uninhabited desert area, then even if its fragments exploded, the impact would be much less severe.

If he could split it into smaller pieces and burn them up in the sky as much as possible, the impact on the ground would be much less!

Feng Yi was still at the initial stage of learning the full set of skills; it wouldn’t happen overnight.

He had to be steady and take it one step at a time.

First, to make the big rock shift a bit toward the desert area.

Just a bit would do.

Given the meteor’s falling speed, a slight angular deviation would result in a substantially different landing site.

There were no lights in the room, and the silver moonlight outside seemed dim; the streetlights were not as bright as those in bustling cities, and objects further away were very hazy on the ground.

When the window was open, you could see the blurry silhouette of someone, but soon the figure merged back into the darkness, invisible.

No one would see the changes happening to the person near the window.

Feng Yi’s pupils narrowed, then dilated into an ellipse, and during this process, filaments spread across the iris.

As his own energy was stimulated, the arm he extended became rapidly covered with scales from upper arm to fingertips.

Faint energy fluctuations surrounded him.

In the air, the invisible dust trembled.

Outside, a gust of wind swept over the road.

Tiny grains of sand were lifted by the wind, scraping against the ground, hissing as if an invisible behemoth were crawling on the spot.

[Shift it a bit]

[Shift it a bit more toward the desert]

The "big fish" that had entered the atmosphere, with its massive size, began to emit a fiery light under the intense heat of ablation.

An unseen force tugged at it, slowly shifting it from its original trajectory.

During this process, the large chunk itself burned even more intensely, the fire growing stronger.

Under the night sky.

Next to Feng Yi.

Jia rubbed the back of his neck where his hair bristled, watching his surroundings with vigilance.

He was already familiar with this sensation and thus didn’t overreact.

Every time his boss was up to something, it felt like this.

However, this time Feng Yi didn’t inform him, meaning it wasn’t any of the issues he was worried about.

Perhaps it was related to the external environment?

Jia looked out the window at the quiet town beneath the night sky.

There was neither the dazzling lights of modern metropolises nor streams of people enjoying late-night snacks.

This town, after its past splendor had faded, no longer had the vibrant nightlife. It would quietly go to sleep as the sun set.

Day after day, a monotonous stillness.

And so it was tonight.

At this time, most people in the town were already deep in sleep.

It seemed just like any other night.

But Jia knew, it was different!

Each particle of dust, every strand of fiber in the air, the grains of sand rolling on the road, all the information flowing in the evening breeze, everything was telling him...

The boss was up to something!

No telling what commotion it would cause.

Jia, like a silent guardian lurking in the shadows, quietly observed, patiently awaiting the imminent events.

In the room next to Jia, on the other side.

Wen Zhiyu had been chatting with a group of friends from Jing City until late. He had just gone to bed, and dreams were beginning to brew, when suddenly he felt an inexplicable sensation!

It was kind of cold.

But actually not cold. He couldn’t quite put his finger on it.

As his consciousness detached from his dreams, Wen Zhiyu opened his eyes, his gaze filled with confusion.

He had been extremely sleepy a moment ago, but now he was very alert.

Why was that?

There was an air circulation system and a temperature control system installed in the room, so he didn’t feel cold, but suddenly his skin broke out in goosebumps!

There it was again! That inexplicable feeling of cold!

"Could it be a cold heart?"

Wen Zhiyu pulled back the curtains.

The surveillance camera on the outside terrace was still diligently at work.

Wen Zhiyu just glanced at it, not bothering to look further.

He sat down by the window, and opened it. He craved a cigarette and wanted to smoke one.

In the deep of night, sleepless, another cigarette, a sentimental song, creating a quaint piece for a social media post—perfect for a friend’s feed!

Wen Zhiyu put a cigarette in his mouth, about to light it.

His peripheral vision caught something unusual, and he abruptly looked up.

In the night sky, a bright line of fire blazed across the horizon!
