Chapter 75: Fearful Events
Subsequently, a situation which seed more frightening took place afterwards .
Thick and dark smoke columns rose up from where the cultists were originally dancing and soared into the sky .
At the end of the smoke columns, light seed to be rapidly disappearing and the space was also twisted and deford, as if the real darkness was approaching!
It was 3 o’clock in the afternoon during the day, but it seed to as dark as a night without moon .
“Why is it so dark?”
“Turn on the lights! I can’t see anything!”
“Where are you? Co out, don’t scare !”
Soon, people on the scene spontaneously noticed that there was no light at all in their world .
Even the light of modern technology products such as street lamps and mobile phones seed to be greatly restricted, as the light couldn’t exceed half a ter in the air .
Out of nowhere, the thick mist began to flood the world and the environnt with low light and low visibility instantly worsened .
The mist was very thick as people next to each other couldn’t even see each other’s face .
As they couldn’t hear each other, it made them feel that the distance between the two was at least 100 ters .
The dark environnt and the thick mist shrouding the city stunned everyone on the scene as they started panicking and wondering whether they were actually in the downtown of Tokyo or not .
“Let’s report the police departnt!”
Just as these journalists and patrolling policen moved closer and uncomfortably planned to contact the headquarters, there were sharp-eyed people who suddenly found sothing wrong in the sky .
“Look! What’s wrong with the moonlight?”
Hearing this, everyone on the scene looked up .
In the misty sky, suddenly there was scarlet moonlight sprinkled on the vast atmosphere and land, a round bloody moon was hanging up high in the original position of the sun, while there was nothing else in the sky .
Although moon was also in the sky during the day, it would always be hidden due to the strong sunlight, but no one had ever seen a bloody moon hanging solely in the sky!
“Did the cultists have a sacrifice ritual to summon it?”
Looking up at the bloody moon scarily, the crowd was frightened and stunned as they recalled what the Aum Shinrikyo cultists had done .
At the sa ti, Japanese Pri Minister Koizumi Ichiro who initially thought that the country had encountered a new teorological weapon attack from an unidentified country, witnessed the strange events .
He almost planned to flee in secret and was about to take an ergency plane to Washington State for political asylum and then remotely command the Self-Defense Force to stage a counterattack .
However, after the follow-up satellites spotted no military attacks on the major coastlines of Japan, he suddenly realized that he had thought too much .
Inside the teorological Agency departnt, the Pri Minister, Koizumi Ichiro scolded the many officials of the teorological Agency on the phone and then went on to discuss it .
“Have you figured out what’s wrong exactly?”
However, even though Koizumi Ichiro repeatedly asked, the officials couldn’t give him an answer, as obviously they were completely stunned and they couldn’t trace the source of the situation at all . The mist shrouding the entire Japan and the spooky bloody moon high seemingly ca out of nowhere!
“Stupid! Useless!”
Swearing in public, Koizumi Ichiro yelled and hanged up the phone . He imdiately ordered the Secretary-General to arrange ergency broadcasts for major TV stations since he would make a speech for the Japanese citizens and stabilize the society .
At the ti, the normal life of all ordinary Japanese people had also been greatly disturbed .
Even if there was an artificial light, it could only cover the space half a diater, which made most of the public places very dim and the original order started crumbling down .
The school began to announce ergency suspensions, the factory was forced to shut down and the shopping malls were all empty .
The mist filled in every corner of the world, motor vehicles were unable to operate and there were a large number of passengers detained in the airport since no civil airplanes could fly in such a misty day!
After all, the mist would interfere with those navigation aids and the visibility was extrely low, which made every little accident lethal .
As for the weird moon that hung up high in the sky and illuminated scarlet moonlight towards the earth, though it brought trendous psychological pressure to people, it had not caused any physical troubles yet .
But on the Internet, all Japanese netizens were discussing it and venting their inner feelings .
A netizen in Nagoya posted . “Oh my God! Is this the end of the world? My family is so scared that we blocked the door with furniture and filled every utensil with water . We even bought as much food and dicine we could from the nearest convenience supermarket and pharmacy!”
A netizen in Yokohama was desperately praying . “The omnipotent Amaterasu, please be sure to shelter from the disaster . I really don’t want to die!”
A Netizen in Shizuoka said . “Everyone, talk to , please . I’m a girl living in the rural area . There are so old and weak people in the village . Now I am surrounded by the mist I can’t see clearly . I am so scared!”
“Hey! I heard that our entire town is all misty! It’s just too interesting! It looks like a fantasy fairy tale world!”
“Right, have you heard of the Arican movie ‘Mist’? This movie is about a beautiful town, swallowed by a sudden mist and a cannibal monster lurking in the mist starts attacking humans, so that the protagonist has to struggle to survive......”
“Will the mist that shrouds Japan be an upgraded version of the movie ‘Mist’?”
“Nonsense! I think the bloody moon and the misty, gloomy environnt, looked clearly like the famous horror ga ‘Silent Hill’!”
So netizens who had not yet felt how serious it was were chatting freely .
