Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

While things were in chaos outside, life inside the little castle remained peaceful.

After an illness.

Everyone seemed a bit listless, and they all huddled together in the living room, not moving an inch.

Lin Shuangshuang sat next to Huo Ling, hugging a cushion, with her right leg draped over his lap, watching the news and videos posted by netizens.

This is used to observe the external situation.

Huo Ling was the same; he would occasionally glance at the messages on the big screen, but spent the rest of his time on his smart device, checking various documents.

We are also gathering information.

Wu Zhe sat on the carpet, watching the news and peeling sunflower seeds on the coffee table. "The authorities can't suppress this for the past two days, and the base is in complete chaos."

"Life is tough these days, it feels like we've gone back to the time right after the apocalypse started." Luo Na sat next to Wu Zhe, braiding the squid strips into pigtails, then eating them in one bite, occasionally sneaking a handful of Wu Zhe's sunflower seeds.

Wu Zhe, that silly kid, didn't notice and continued to save up the sunflower seeds. He planned to eat them all at once once he had enough, saying that it would be more satisfying that way.

Gao Lei was shelling edamame. A batch of edamame had grown on the rooftop. Xiao San and Xiao Si said that fresh edamame was delicious, so he shelled some since he had nothing else to do. "Judging from the situation online, it seems that large-scale farms are safer."

Lorna nodded in agreement. "Indeed, large bases react much faster than small bases. Sigh, when will this end?"

It would be a terrifying thing if everyone died.

Wu Zhe said, "It's really bad that we can't even use our points anymore."

They still have hundreds of millions of points.

But there was nothing else they could do.

As the three of them chatted, they couldn't help but sigh, feeling that the future was bleak.

Suddenly there was a loud bang outside.

They were startled, but then quickly realized it was a meteorite.

Lin Shuangshuang pressed the remote control and switched the screens on the right to the outdoor monitoring screen. Sure enough, the meteor shower started again, which was just adding insult to injury.

No.

That would be adding fuel to the fire.

Lorna saw it too, and sighed after reading it, "Sigh, ever since the first meteor shower, meteorites have been falling from the sky every now and then."

She was used to it.

Gao Lei and Wu Zhe smiled wryly, then continued with their work.

Lin Shuangshuang was staring at the news when she inadvertently caught sight of a somewhat dangerous post: "Meteorite Storm...?"

Her voice drew everyone's attention.

Luo Na asked first, "What meteor storm? Shuang'er, what did you see?"

Lin Shuangshuang zoomed in on the news article, saying, "This suggests that a meteorite storm may occur soon."

That's what the experts said.

At the same time, a speculative video was released, suggesting that the sky has been unsettled since the meteor shower, with recent wind patterns being strange and their behavior unpredictable.

Rona exclaimed in disbelief, sitting up straight and looking closely. "This isn't a meteor storm, it's a meteor hammer!!"

Meteorites are terrifying enough, but if a meteorite is carried by strong winds, how could a person survive to reach the ground? Wouldn't they be smashed to pieces?

Huo Ling then spoke up, "Don't even think about going out for the time being. Stay home and rest. Stop the mission and focus on getting better first."

A crisis caused by skyrocketing pollution levels has already claimed many lives in this disaster.

Although no deaths occurred in the small castle, the people who experienced it all suffered varying degrees of physical damage. Rona and the other two are still quite weak. So, in the apocalypse, you can die without even knowing how.

Luo Na was also terrified. "Luckily, we were high-level, and Brother Zhang reacted quickly, while Brother Zhao was skilled. That saved our lives. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable! Pollutants are terrifying!"

Gao Lei and Wu Zhe wholeheartedly agreed.

Lin Shuangshuang nodded eagerly, "Indeed, this thing is terrifying!"

Not only will it harm the human body, but it will also make Huo Ling more ferocious.

Huo Ling couldn't help but chuckle and said to Lin Shuangshuang, "Why are you meddling in this?"

She wasn't affected.

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to meet Lin Shuangshuang's fearful yet shy gaze.

Huo Ling: ...

I want to die.

Suddenly recalling unpleasant memories, such as calling someone "wife" hundreds of times in one night, he immediately lowered his head to reply to the message.

Playing dead.

Lin Shuangshuang suddenly pressed herself against him, resting her head on his shoulder. "What are you looking at?"

Huo Ling was drenched in sweat. "It's nothing, just replying to a message."

He was terrified that she would say, "Why don't you call me wife anymore?" He would be so embarrassed that he would accidentally reveal his true feelings. He looked like a cool guy, but he actually dreamed of becoming a husband every day.

Lin Shuangshuang glanced at it and found several messages from the Huo family.

Grandpa Huo said he had been discharged from the hospital and told him not to worry. He would make good use of the supplies on the space card. Grandma Huo said that she and Grandpa Huo were safe and told him not to worry. She reminded him to be careful while he was away.

Huo Ling blocked Huo Yichuan's contact information, so he sent him messages using Huo Ting and Huo Yuan's numbers. Ninety percent of the messages accused him of being disobedient and called him an unfilial son, while the remaining ten percent told him to come home, saying that the family couldn't be without him at a time like this.

Lin Shuangshuang frowned and pouted, "You only think of me at times like this? Where were you before?"

In her hazy memory, after Huo Ling's mother passed away, Huo Yichuan devoted himself to his new marriage and career, completely ignoring Huo Ling.

The stepmother quickly gave birth to children one after another, like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

The elders' attention was also diverted to this, and coupled with Huo Ling's maturity and the grief over her mother's passing, she chose to distance herself from her former home, so it was inevitable that she would drift further and further away from the Huo family.

Now that they're in danger, the Huo family has suddenly remembered that they still have Huo Ling.

Huo Ling casually deleted all the contact information of his stepmother's younger siblings. They had never chatted before, and for a moment he had forgotten that the three of them were in his contact list.

Turning his head, he saw Lin Shuangshuang standing up for him, looking indignant. His mood improved considerably. He reached out and pinched her cheek, making her pout, before smiling and saying, "Why get angry with those people?"

not worth it.

Lin Shuangshuang then snorted, feeling a little sorry for him, "I will always stand by your side."

Huo Ling said in a good mood, "Yes, I know, so I'm not sad."

The little monster felt very powerful and reliable, and she earnestly said to him, "You can rely on me, I'm very strong."

Huo Ling glanced at her; she was much smaller than him, but her fighting skills were indeed very high, which pleased him. It proved that Lin Shuangshuang could protect herself well. As for him, he absolutely could not hold her back.

To appear more reliable, Lin Shuangshuang sat up straight, puffed out her chest, and gave a determined look.

Huo Ling was almost driven mad by her cuteness. She was so cute that his teeth itched. He wanted to bite her and kiss her, but unfortunately, they were in the living room.

It's hard to suppress the corners of my mouth.

Huo Ling could only raise his hand and ruffle her head, making her already messy curly hair even messier. "Okay, fine, I'll let you protect me, okay?"
