Even though Lu Li had already issued an attack warning, nearly half of the population in New York City had not yet evacuated.
Among them were social media influencers, media personnel, and people like Fang Qian with ulterior motives.
But even more were the blindly confident ordinary citizens.
In their view, the military was prepared and killing a yellow-skinned mutant was a piece of cake!
The fact that puppets had been suppressed by unmanned tanks upon first encounter solidified this belief, and many who had planned to leave stayed put.
But to their surprise, the evil mutant revived the Statue of Liberty and attacked Manhattan!
Citywide air raid alarms echoed as those too late to evacuate surged towards underground parking lots and subway stations.
"The evil mutant desecrated the Statue of Liberty! He will surely go to hell!"
"What the hell is the military doing! Kill that bastard!"
