Although the explosion occurred at an altitude of 100 kilometers above the ground, the powerful shock wave released still destroyed most of Lakewood's houses. The situation in Denver was not much better, with the glass facades and windows of almost all high-rise buildings shattered. Fortunately, the explosion of the energy body does not produce a stream of neutrons that are extremely harmful to the human body, and most of the energy is converted into internal energy and electromagnetic radiation.

At the time of the explosion, Nicole and his wife had just left the city.

When the night suddenly turns into day and everyone is terrified, Nichole suddenly breaks free from Rachel and Maya and returns to the city alone. Rachel reacted immediately, and after asking Maya and Chloe to pick up Clara and Zhong Ruirui, she returned to the city with Isabella and the others.

Before the explosion, they could clearly sense Chu Tianjiang's existence, but after the explosion, they couldn't sense anything. Although Nichol and Rachel had already thought that it must be Chu Tianjiang who absorbed all the unstable energy bodies, and then jumped into the air before these energy bodies lost control, and then a big explosion occurred, they didn't want to believe it, they thought that Chu Tianjiang was still alive or, in that courtyard.

By the time Rachel and Isabella caught up, Nichole had already returned to the compound.

Directly below the explosion site, the houses had collapsed and were all reduced to rubble. In the ground in the center of the courtyard, there is a large pit with a diameter of several meters.

"Nicol ......"

He ...... He's dead......" Nichole shuddered.

Rachel walked up, and although she was also grief-stricken, she knew that Nichole was the most sad, because it was Nichole who loved him the most.

"He's dead...... He's dead......" muttering a few words under his breath as Nichol suddenly knelt down, "No—don't leave us...... You liar, you said you would never leave us behind...... You're a liar, you said you'd come to us...... Why do you want to leave us behind...... For what...... Why do you want to leave us behind...... You promised, you swore and you spoke...... Never leave us behind...... Never ......"

"Nichol......" Rachel shed tears, but did not cry, for she knew that at this time, she had to be strong.

"Rachel, you have to live well and take care of Clara and Anna."

Rachel was shocked. "Nicole, you ......"

Before Rachel could finish speaking, a white glow erupted from Nichol's body, indicating that she was unleveraging the white energy body that made up her body.

She's going to kill herself!

"Nicole, don't do anything stupid!" Rachel didn't dare to hesitate and immediately hugged Nichol.

Isabella, Michelle and Kelly also understood and rushed up to Nichole with Rachel to hug Nichol and prevent Nichol from doing stupid things.

"Leave me alone. He...... He's dead, what's the point of me living? ”

"Nicole, don't be impulsive. Think of Clara, think of Anna, think of the child they were carrying. Rachel hugged Nichol. We feel the same way you do, but we have to be strong, and we're going to get Clara out of here and send her back to our riverdale home. After settling Clara and Anna, we will go with you to meet him and still marry him in another world, as his wife. ”

"Rachel ......"

"We must be strong, not because we want to live in secret, but for the sake of his children, for the sake of his flesh and blood left in this world."

"But...... But he's dead......"

The white light emanating from Nichol's body gradually dimmed, and Rachel knew that Nichole had suppressed his grief.

In fact, when she realized that Chu Tianjiang was dead, Rachel's first thought was the same as Nichol's, except that she was more rational and stronger. If they kill themselves by blowing themselves up here, not only will all the civilians of Lakewood be buried for them, but even Clara, who is on the way, will suffer. Perhaps, Clara will also be grief-stricken after asking, but she is pregnant with Chu Tianjiang's child.

The five of them huddled together, Nichole was crying loudly, Isabella, Michelle and Kelly were crying, and Rachel was the only one who didn't. Although after getting to know Chu Tianjiang, Rachel's little woman's true colors were vividly expressed, but the tragic experiences in the past few years had already taught her to be strong, especially when she was hit and the other sisters became weak, she would be extraordinarily strong.

"Nicol ......"

"Rachel, he's dead...... He's really dead......"

Rachel didn't know how to comfort Nichol. Before meeting Chu Tianjiang, Nicol was the simplest and most immature among them. At Chu Tianjiang, Nicol got everything a woman wanted, including everything she wanted in her dreams. Although Rachel and the others also loved Chu Tianjiang deeply and got everything they wanted from Chu Tianjiang, Nicol loved the most and was most attached to Chu Tianjiang.

"Who said I was dead?"

Rachel was startled, and Nichol, who was leaning on her arms, immediately got up, and Isabella and the other three stood up suddenly.

"Start, who said I was dead?"

The fireball from the explosion had dimmed, and a gray figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard, walking towards them.

"Husband......"

"Who are you?" Rachel grabbed Nichol. Although that voice was very similar to Chu Tianjiang, that person gave her a very strange feeling.

What's more, Rachel was unable to form a spiritual connection with him.

"Husband? Nicole, can you be sure I'm your man? ”

"Don't come here, who the hell are you?" Rachel pulled Nichole behind her.

"Rachel, you've always been rude, but I've always liked you, do you know what it's for?"

The man had already approached and saw his face clearly, and Nicol and the others were all shocked, because he was indeed Chu Tianjiang, at least he had Chu Tianjiang's face.

"Stand, don't come."

"By this time, you're still protecting Nichol and the others, and that's what I like most about you."

"Without further ado, who the hell are you?"

"Didn't Nicol start to say that?" The man appeared innocent.

"Don't talk nonsense with me, you said you are Chu Tianjiang, why do you feel so strange to me?"

"Really? Maybe I've changed something that has given you the illusion. ”

"Fart!"

"Well, how do you want me to prove myself?"

Rachel gritted her teeth and said, "If you answer me a few questions, and if you answer correctly, I believe that you are Chu Tianjiang, and if you answer wrong, the old lady will break you into pieces." ”

"Okay, you ask."

"Who are we?"

"It's all my wife."

"That's not counting, Nichole already said it at the beginning." Rachel rolled her eyes and said, "Where did we do our first time?" ”

"Me with you?" The man smiled and said, "On the way to Alamos, on the armored car that was stolen from the robbers, to be exact. Need I be a little more detailed? For example, it was a 'Stryker' armored car, and Nicol was sleeping in the captain's seat at the time, and Chloe was taking care of the injured Maya in the back, and you were trying to seduce me, I didn't want to, but I could only ......."

"Enough!" Rachel's face flushed. "What about your first time with Nichol?"

"Spiritual, or physical?"

"How can there be so much nonsense, answer truthfully."

"Spiritually, on the day you were captured by Stephanie, in a lake in a river valley north of Los Alamos. Physically, it was after the intruders had evacuated, that is, before I returned to you and formally proposed to you. ”

"No, can you endure it that long?"

The man smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, ask Nichol." ”

"Nicol?"

Nichole nodded, and then buried his head in it.

"What about you and Clara?"

"Grandma, Clara is not here, even if I say it, if you don't believe it, can you prove that I am telling the truth?"

"You ......"

"Enough trouble?"

Before Rachel could react, the man appeared in front of her, one hand on her forehead, and the other on Nichol's.

Isabella, Michelle, and Kelly were startled and quickly attacked.

"Don't do it!" Rachel suddenly held out her hand, "He...... He is Chu Tianjiang and our husband. ”

"Now, what about believing it?" Chu Tianjiang retracted his hand. At first, he used direct physical contact to communicate with Nicol and Rachel spiritually.

"Husband, you...... You're not dead. ”

"What, disappointed?"

"You bastard, do you think we want you dead?" Rachel couldn't help but give Chu Tianjiang a fist. "Nicol almost killed himself for you."

"Grandma, I was wrong!" Chu Tianjiang smiled, hugged Rachel and kissed him, and hugged Nichol again. "It's okay now, we're all alive, and we're all alive and well. It's just that you're not in a bad situation. Isabella, go and call Maya, Chloe, Zhong Ruirui, and Clara. Meet Connie and ask them to help the others, and come to me after dawn. ”

"You killed Stephanie?"

"No, let her run. But don't worry, even if I run to the ends of the earth, I can find her. ”

"But ......"

"I'll have to help you recover before I go to her to settle the score, right?" Chu Tianjiang smiled and let go of Rachel and Nichol. "If there's nothing to do, let's go clean up the basement. When you're back in shape, we'll go to Stephanie to settle the score. ”

By the time Isabella came back with Maya, Chu Tianjiang and Nicol had already cleaned up the basement.

Fortunately, the main structure of the basement is very strong and has not been collapsed by the big explosion.
