How does H. G. Wells create suspense in the opening paragraph of The War of the Worlds?

ABy having the narrator recall the story's past events and giving hints about what happened
BBy explaining how ruthless the Martians are and telling the reader exactly what they will do
CBy informing the reader that the narrator will survive the terrifying events of the story
DBy allowing the reader to believe that all of the characters in the story will die at the end

The narrator hints that a superior race was envious of us, somehow and wanted something that we had. When he does that, he compares the alien race to humans when comparing humans to mindless beasts. It is clear that the narrator is remembering the beginning of it all and it is more than enough to make the reader tense and wondering what happened.
