“There’s an urgent matter in my office, so I have to go back. If you want to come back with me, give me a call. If not, you can go and see for yourself.”

After saying that, he rushed into the BMW that exuded an aura of escape without looking back.

"Bastard, scum, liar, you have one girl but don't look for a second one, do you really think you're a king?"

"That's the kind of guy I hate; I want to beat him up."

Linda gritted her teeth, growing angrier the more she thought about it, and her complexion didn't improve at all when she got home.

Theoborn opened his notebook computer and pointed to the news.

"Tesla has run into trouble."

"Don't even mention it, she's clinging to me!"

Siobhan opened the news, and after seeing the content, Linda's expression turned serious.

"Meteorite?"

"Yes"

Theoborn nodded: "Just as you left, a space meteorite struck the beach near the Tesla factory, and I heard it injured quite a few people."

...

Meteorite falls are not uncommon for people on Earth; every year, so many ungrateful stones fall to Earth.

However, this is the first time such a situation has occurred so frequently.

To the east of the Tesla factory, a crater has formed on a flat beach. It is not large, only a few tens of meters wide. The problem lies in the meteorite in the middle.

A stone shimmering with purple light stood out starkly from its surroundings.

Chapter 1155 Terrifying Alien Species

When Xu Fu arrived at the scene surrounded by Tesla security personnel, the last security captain, Dio, whispered...

"The researchers said he needed the meteor fragments to take back for research."

Xu Fu stared intently at the meteorite, as if this eternally burning stone had gained consciousness and set some inexplicable rhythm of life.

This thing couldn't possibly be alive.

Xu Fu frowned and muttered to himself, "What's the casualty rate?"

"Only two unfortunate people were thrown off the ground by the shockwave from the meteorite impact while walking. They have been taken to the hospital and are in good condition."

"very good"

Xu Fu took a drag of his cigarette, glanced around at the crowd, and immediately said, "Seal off the surrounding area and prohibit outsiders from approaching, for the sake of research work."

"Let's forget about it. This thing gives me a strange feeling; it might not be anything good."

Less than a minute later, two tacky black SUVs pulled up to the side of the road. The doors opened, and a group of people in black suits stepped out. The leader pulled out his ID card…

"Hello Mr. Xiao, I am the head of Division 11 of the Derington Sky Eye Association Metropolitan Branch."

Xu Fu flipped through the documents and said.

"Now that you're here, it's time for my men to leave."

"Dio, withdraw the guards. It's Christmas today, it's time to relax."

"Understood, boss."

Dior instructed his men to evacuate in an orderly manner, leaving the scene to be handled by the Tianyan Society.

At this time, senior Defense Department officials, led by Sam Lane, director of the Sky Eye Association, were arguing with Tesla over the issue of exoskeleton armor. He had heard that the argument was quite heated and thought that the operation would be hindered by the other side, but it went so smoothly.

"Mr. Xiao, thank you for your cooperation."

That's how it should be.

Xu Fu didn't say anything more and turned to leave. When he returned to the factory, Dior couldn't help but say something.

"Young Master, do you really not care?"

"I ordered Ava to collect meteor debris on her own. Don't interfere until we find the source. Oh, and get the work arranged this afternoon. Come back to Seaside City with me tomorrow."

Since there were no casualties, the meteorite incident was quickly overshadowed by the grand wave of Black Friday. After returning home, Xu Fu's first thing to do was to visit his eldest uncle's house. As for his second uncle, he was doing business in the United Kingdom and couldn't come this year.

Xu Fu left the gifts in the living room and returned to the Xiao family manor with Billy. The family enjoyed a sumptuous Christmas dinner there, and the old man formally introduced Linda to the gathered crowd, saying that he intended to announce Linda as his adopted daughter.

Fortunately, Xu Fu changed the subject in time. He didn't want to gain another daughter-in-law for no reason, as that would be very awkward.

After dinner, Billy found Xu Fu and whispered, "Xu Fu, what's wrong with you?"

"What's your relationship with this girl? Why didn't I know anything about her when she was living in our house?"

Xu Fu swirled his wine glass and spoke slowly.

"You can stay away from her."

Billy blinked, then turned to look at the beautiful Linda, who had a very pleasant smile on her face, but a very strange expression: "You shouldn't do this."

"You're overthinking it. Our relationship isn't at that level yet. Let me tell you, don't let her pretty face fool you; her strength is only so-so." The man said, giving a thumbs-up.

"The person circling over the Metropolis might not even be her match."

"Damn it!"

Billy was stunned; his eyes rolled back, and...

"really?"

"You can try, but don't expect me to save you."

Billy was both tempted and afraid. His gaze lingered in that direction. After careful consideration, he decided to stay far away from her.

Xu Fu wasn't the type to joke around. Since he said the girl was a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex, then he wasn't wrong. He was only twenty years old, with a bright future ahead of him, and there was no need for him to provoke a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Linda overheard their entire conversation, and her hard-won good mood vanished instantly.

"Xu Fu-Xiao!"

Driven by a surge of inner turmoil, the power began to spiral out of control. The steel knives and forks twisted into a pretzel. Seeing the faltering look in Billy's eyes, the old man immediately grabbed a pillow and smashed it over Billy's head.

"Damn it, lie down after you've eaten. You pig, come here and get ready."

Christmas is a time for family reunions, but this year Sam Lane encountered a little trouble.

A military base in the western part of the metropolis.

In the cramped laboratory stood several scientists in protective suits. They were top scientists from all over the country, assigned by Sam Lane to analyze the purple meteorite that had fallen from the sky.

After two days of research, preliminary conclusions were reached, and Professor Camoan, the head of the research team, gave a report.

"After analysis, it was found that the meteorite contained a special life form. According to biological classification, it belongs to a single-celled organism, but the cell is very large, thirty times the size of a human egg cell. Its internal structure is also quite complex, with a large number of structural components that cannot be obtained using modern biotechnology."

"These cells are very aggressive. We isolated a small fraction of them and injected them into mice, and the results were amazing."

Professor Camon led everyone into a comfortable, enclosed room. On the table in the middle was a glass box, and a large rat was running around inside, occasionally banging its head against the wall.

This mouse is different from the white mice in the laboratory. It is purplish-brown all over, baring its teeth and having bright red eyes. It looks extremely fierce. What is even more shocking is its strength. The box is made of high-strength bulletproof glass, which is extremely hard. However, when the mouse is hit, it vibrates unevenly every 690 times, and even small cracks appear on the surface.

Everyone frowned in unison. Sam Lane said gruffly, "Because he..."

"What happened? Why did this happen?"

"The alien creature in the meteorite must be a parasitic species, capable of invading the host's body in a short time, altering cellular structure at the genetic level, and having a certain negative impact on the host's mental state. It can make the host ferocious and aggressive."

As soon as he finished speaking, the rat in the glass box suddenly collapsed, its body trembled violently, and then shrank back inside like a deflated balloon, becoming a desiccated corpse.

Camon sighed with a serious expression: "That's its aggressiveness, or rather, its predatory nature. The host that parasitizes it needs to constantly absorb the life force of other creatures to survive. Once it can't get food, it will die."

“General, this is a very dangerous alien species. I strongly suggest that you begin a full-scale search of Metropolis, collect all the meteorite fragments, and under no circumstances allow them to come into contact with humans.”

Sam Lane took a deep look at the gradually drying rat, then turned away.

"I will investigate this matter. You must do everything in your power to obtain all information about this creature as soon as possible."

Afterwards, he and a group of his men left the laboratory.

Chapter 1156 Joshua Allen!

After leaving the base, Sam Lane did not go home for Christmas. Instead, he drove to the somewhat dilapidated building and took the elevator to the third basement level.

This is the secret experimental base of "Sky Eye" and one of the treasures left by Amanda.

The head of the secret base is named Amanda, a Russian who was wanted by the Russian authorities for some reason. After several twists and turns, he was recruited by Amanda and became a scientist in the "Sky Eye" organization.

Sam Lane dislikes Russians, but he likes Russian traitors.

"How's it going?"

"Excellent, unbelievable."

Amachekov was both surprised and delighted. He brought Sam Lane to the testing ground, where two mutated cats were fighting fiercely. They had been injected with alien organisms and turned into purplish-brown house cats. Although they were small, their strength and speed were terrifying, and they could even leave craters in the concrete floor.

"After comparison, their physical qualities have increased by at least twenty-five times, and their muscles and bones have become exceptionally strong, enabling them to withstand attacks from small-caliber guns. While large-caliber weapons can still cause damage, they will not be fatal."

"The alien creature completely altered the cat's physical structure, enhancing its physical functions in every way. It now possesses fighting power comparable to three tigers."

Sam Lane watched silently as the cats fought each other until they died, then turned away and said calmly.
