Lu Xiaoran had just ordered the most expensive and high-end dishes in the restaurant. Plates of steaming food were served to the table, and Lu Xiaoran picked up his chopsticks, sampling a bite from each dish.
Since eating was considered a form of contact, there was no need for Lu Xiaoran to grab rice with his hands. He had ordered over one hundred eighty dishes, and soon the entire table was piled high with food.
Seeing the waitress bring another newly served dish, unsure of where to place it, Lu Xiaoran casually said, "Please take these dishes away; I've tried them all and don't particularly like them."
The waitress paused for a moment, staring at the lavish spread before her. A one thousand five hundred dollar Australian Lobster sat untouched after just one bite, and a one thousand two hundred dollar Bluefin Tuna Sashimi was also left after only a single chopstick's worth.
The waitress had never witnessed such a scene before and secretly wondered if this young man might be the illegitimate son of some wealthy tycoon. After sampling every dish he had ordered, Lu Xiaoran stood up without any hesitation and went to the front desk to settle the bill.
Fifteen thousand dollars on the tab, and Lu Xiaoran didn't even blink. Once he left, the cashiers stood there in shock, whispering among themselves as they speculated about the identity of this young man.
Of course, Lu Xiaoran didn't care about such money; he still had over seven hundred thousand left from a loan he took out at a pawnshop and was currently pondering how to spend it.
In the following days, Lu Xiaoran visited several high-end brand stores, replicating some luxury clothing and daily necessities. After confirming that he had encountered everything he could think of, Lu Xiaoran arrived at Dragon Ridge Mountain on the evening of March thirty-first.
He circled around the safe house and used his ability to replicate twelve pinhole cameras, strategically placing them around the perimeter of the safe house. This was to ensure that he could monitor external conditions clearly while staying inside.
Once everything was set up, Lu Xiaoran entered the safe house. The meteorite was expected to fall soon. Lying on the large bed inside the safe house, Lu Xiaoran reflected on what had happened previously.
The meteorite was set to land in Ugly Country, Texas, in the early hours of April first. In just six and a half days, toxic gas would spread across the globe. Although it would take four more days for the gas to reach Haitong City, Lu Xiaoran didn't want to take any extra risks. Staying outside might lead to unforeseen variables; it was safest to remain in this secure location.
Lying on the soft and comfortable high-end mattress, Lu Xiaoran quickly drifted off into sleep.
The next morning, Lu Xiaoran groggily sat up in bed. He had slept particularly well last night. The safe house effectively blocked out all external noise, allowing him to rest soundly.
He picked up his phone from the table and glanced at the time; it was already past eight in the morning. Logging onto the web, Lu Xiaoran noticed that five or six trending news stories were related to meteorites.
He clicked on an official report released by Ugly Country media, which matched perfectly with his memory. In the early hours of the month, a meteorite had fallen in Texas, Ugly Country.
According to expert estimates, this meteorite weighed over five billion tons. The massive rock had created a deep crater upon impact. A city in Texas was completely flattened, leaving nearly two million people unaccounted for.
The Texas Government dispatched rescue teams overnight to conduct search and rescue operations. However, when these rescuers arrived at the scene, they were met with an extremely bizarre sight. Within a ten-mile radius around the meteorite, a pale yellow mist hung heavily in the air.
