The recovery unit had already arrived.
Three red lights hovered high above the village. They looked small from the ground, but they were getting larger with every passing second.
A faint humming sound filled the air.
It soon became loud enough to make the windows and doors rattle.
"Everyone, get away from the open area!" Ouyang Jin shouted.
The villagers did not need to be told twice.
Those who could still walk supported the injured and rushed towards the nearby houses. Others remained on the ground because their bodies had not yet recovered from the parasites.
Old Chen tried to lift his granddaughter, but his arms were too weak.
Blaze hurried over and picked her up.
"Which house?" he asked.
"Mine is the last one over there."
"That one looks as if it could collapse if someone sneezes."
"It has survived until now."
"Fair enough."
Blaze carried the girl away while Old Chen followed.
Chief Gao watched them from inside Leng Pan's mist barrier.
