Chapter 39: The Heavens Fall
Seven or eight rescue vehicles were speeding all the way, causing traffic chaos, and the momentum was very loud, and it was not difficult to track.
Not long after driving in the back, I came to the north business district of the city, and saw the smoke and dust covering the sky, as if I was fighting.
The entire road was blocked by cars, and there were panicked crowds running out in front, the drivers in the cars were unknown, and many people also got out of the car and ran along, Chu Ge and Yan Tieshou were completely blocked.
The two climbed onto the hood of the jeep, stood on tiptoe and watched for a long time, covered by smoke and dust, and could not see clearly, only to hear someone running and shouting: "The building is collapsing, the building is collapsing!" β
However, there are also some strong citizens who rushed to the scene of the disaster against the crowd, and some people spontaneously maintained order and guided the people.
ββAfter "a hundred years of calamity, once nirvana", the social atmosphere in these years is not bad, and many elderly people still remember how to help each other and fight against natural disasters together; In the school, a lot of knowledge of earthquake prevention, disaster resistance and fire fighting will be taught, and the glory of heroes will be promoted; Many employers often give priority to hiring and promoting those who act bravely; Even if you are unfortunately injured, the relevant subsidies from the alliance and insurance companies are enough to ensure food and clothing.
Therefore, in the face of disasters, there are still many people who are willing to stand up.
Yan Tieshou was a veteran, and the Lei San Cannon inside was his brother, so he didn't want to think about it, and yelled at Chu Ge: "You stay in the car and don't move!" β
But he jumped on the top of the car in front of him, stepped on the roof of a car, and rushed towards the smoke.
Chu Ge looked at the heat in his eyes, and said in his heart that fame is in the present day, and he has come here, how can he "not move"?
He also followed the example of Yan Tieshou, jumped from the roofs of the cars, and shouted loudly as he jumped: "Don't stop me!" Don't stop me! I'm going to see the righteous and brave! Human life is at stake, 100,000 urgent! I, I just slaughtered the immortal cultivators, don't stop me! β
In fact, others didn't expect that he and Yan Tieshou were the only two people jumping around in the car, who stopped him?
However, shouting like this is really eye-catching, and many citizens who escaped have sideways glances, as if there are still a few little girls, and their eyes are not right.
"Ding, ding, ding!"
Chu Ge harvested a few small points of shock energy, although it was not much, but it seemed, probably, seemed to come out from the direction of those little girls, and his heart was full of joy.
It's a pity that the two of them ran on the roof of the car, and many people also thought of this shortcut, and many people who were willing to help climbed onto the roof of the car and ran.
ran a few more steps, plunged into the smoke and dust, coughed a few times, and no one could see his sassy and heroic posture clearly.
Further ahead, several multi-functional rescue vehicles, fire trucks, police cars, and ambulances were all parked horizontally and vertically, just pulling up the cordon, and before sorting out the relationship between the on-site command, all kinds of uniforms were chaotic like headless flies.
At the forefront, there stood a pyramid-like building, Chu Ge didn't remember that there was such a building in Lingshan City, rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, he was taken aback, it was originally a ten-story high, square building, but at this moment, half of it collapsed, forming a sloping ruin.
No, not a collapse, more precisely, a crack in the ground, a huge hole appeared in the ground, and half of the building sank into it!
"How so?"
Chu Ge was secretly surprised, although Lingshan City was located on the coast, the soil was crisp and loose, and there were many hollows underground, but the void that was enough to swallow half of the building, he had never seen it since he was born in the Nirvana era.
This is a natural disaster that can only occur during the darkest times of the Calamity.
Somehow, Chu Ge seemed to smell a strange breath, and saw bright and dripping smoke, surging out from the depths of the crack, as if something was shattering and leaking underground.
"Could it be that it has something to do with Reiki revival?"
Looking at the battlefield-like environment around him, there were constantly survivors being helped out by the police and red helmets, and some people were even carried out on stretchers, the scene was very bloody, and Chu Ge's expression became serious.
Yan Tieshou was a few steps faster than him, and before the scene was blocked, he rushed in.
Chu Ge also wanted to rush in, but was stopped by a policeman and a red helmet, who pulled up a cordon and yelled at him: "Retreat, it's too dangerous here, the crack in the ground will expand at any time, all retreat, don't come again!" β
Chu Ge couldn't help it, and watched the tense rescue scene inside.
Strengthened by the shock energy and genetic potions, his sense of sight and hearing was somewhat improved compared to before, and he could faintly hear the conversations of the rescuers, and found that they were also a mess.
On the left, a red helmet yells at a police officer: "Your people can't go in anymore, the building is likely to collapse, you are not professional rescuers, what should you do if you fall in together!" β
The police officer was disgraced, as if he had just been fished out of the mud, and he also stared, and shouted with a stalk on his neck: "There are still hundreds of survivors inside, and there are so many citizens outside, why don't we go in and watch them sink into the ground?" What about your people, why are there so many? β
After saying that, he ignored the red helmet, beckoned his fellow again, and rushed into the collapsed and collapsed building.
On the right, it seems to be the correspondent of the Red Helmets, facing the communicator, shouting hoarsely: "There has been an overall collapse accident in the north of the city 'Jinchang Building', the main structure has not been damaged, but no one knows how long it can last, the upper part of the building is being renovated, the lower part is for commercial and residential purposes, and there are many residents, at least hundreds of survivors are trapped inside, ask for support, ask for support!" β
In the middle, there was Yan Tieshou and a red helmet with a beard and a star on his shoulder, both of whom spoke quickly and looked very anxious.
Chu Ge pricked up his ears and listened carefully, Yan Tieshou said: "Three artillery, why is it so serious, even the instructors and rookies of your training base have to go on a mission?" β
"What can I do, since yesterday, the entire Lingshan City has been like a boiling pot, and the underground cavities have collapsed, fires, explosions, gas leaks, and even large-scale power outages...... Ten times more than before.
"The Red Helmets up and down, all of them are spinning, one person splits three sections, can't cope with it, no, early in the morning there was an accident in the factory area in the western suburbs, and a large number of red helmets were dispatched to the past, before noon, the newly built complex in the southern area also caught fire, and there were sporadic small accidents, there was really no one, only us!"
Yan Tieshou said: "Then, I remember that there are many experienced instructors in the training base, and the level of many trainees is also quite good, why didn't they bring it?" β
"Ahem, just now, there was also an accident in the university area in the east of the city, that is the top priority of the entire Lingshan, the senior instructors under my command and the trainees who are about to finish are all gone, only a group of administrators and rookies who have just arrived for a few days are left, they don't go up, who is on it? I even brought the cook from the base cafeteria. β
The beard slapped his thigh heavily, "This day, it's evil!" β
"Three guns, tell me honestly-"
Yan Tieshou said in a deep voice, "So many disasters and accidents, is it related to 'aura recovery'?" β
The bearded gaze flashed, and said with a wry smile: "Is it interesting to ask this now, no matter what, it's important to save people!" β
"Okay."
Yan Tieshou didn't talk nonsense, "How can I help?" β
"You ......" Beard hesitated.
"Brothers, you know me."
Yan Tieshou said, "If you are all elite red helmets who have experienced a hundred battles here, I will obediently drill out of the cordon, retreat five hundred meters, and never cause trouble for you, but since you are all executives, rookies and cooks, then our skills are somewhat stronger than them, I think back then-"
"Well, don't think about it back then, there's really a place for you here."
The beard also knew Yan Tieshou's temper, and pointed to the two large impact grinders next to him, "We have locked the signs of life of dozens of survivors, and I am ready to personally lead a team of people to rush in, but the crushing claws on our power armor are used to deal with the reinforced concrete on the exterior wall of the building, it is too wasteful of time, I need to make a hole in the outer wall of the building at an inclination of forty-five degrees in the shortest possible time to construct a 'life passage' to facilitate the transportation of survivors."
"Time is pressing, we didn't bring the corresponding equipment, these are two impact crushers temporarily transferred from the construction site next to them, but the two operators have never seen such a formation, they are so scared that their legs are weak, and they don't dare to climb up anything, I'm in a hurry, Lao Yan, can you do it?"
"Phew!"
Yan Tie spat at the foot of his beard with his hand, and said coldly, "Do you think I can do it?" β
"Okay!"
Luo Hu breathed a sigh of relief, "You can definitely do it, then so, hurry up and change your equipment and change into our heat-insulated and anti-chemical combat uniforms!" β
"Wait, there's an impact grinder?" Yan Tieshou asked.
"There's another one, no one can play it for the time being, forget it."
"The work efficiency is a little lower, the rescue mission is not a joke, just find a second knife, drive the ducks to the shelf, and then freeze in the middle of the road, and kill people." β
"Yes."
Yan Tieshou thought for a while, "Make do, one, just one!" β
Before the words fell, I heard a voice from outside the cordon: "Instructor Yan, I, and me, I can do it too!" β
