Chapter 484 Breathing

In the previous two earthquakes, Ji Changqing had noticed them in advance and resolved the crisis in time, either before the earthquake occurred or just as it began. But this time, the situation was completely different.

The shelter only launched the distress broadcast after the earthquake occurred. Information transmission was already delayed, and the delay just now was compounded.

So when He Rui and the others teleported to the sky above the disaster-stricken area of the shelter, the entire city was already a doomsday scene.

He Rui's blood almost froze as he stared blankly at the horrific and tragic scene beneath his feet.

Compared to the tragic situation when the mutant beast tide attacked the shelter before, the earthquake disaster at this moment seemed to have increased the level of destruction by several orders of magnitude.

The earthquake came swiftly and with a high magnitude.

The earth was shaking wildly, and the tall buildings were swaying like building blocks, and they could collapse at any time.

But the most terrifying thing is the ground.

He Rui witnessed the entire process of the earth's crust tearing with his own eyes.

Amidst a deafening roar, a crack as wide as a small river suddenly opened like the mouth of a giant beast, and several survivors who had no time to escape fell into the abyss in an instant.

He Rui screamed in shock, grabbed the clothes of the person next to him in panic, and pointed down, "Someone fell in!" His voice was trembling.

In a trance, he saw a nearby helicopter, a building on the ground that had not yet collapsed, and a group of people fleeing, all of which suddenly disappeared in an instant.

And something even more terrifying suddenly happened. The crack that swallowed up humans seemed to be "breathing" and quickly closed again.

For a moment, He Rui felt as if his soul was being pulled out and was completely frightened.

Even though he possessed extraordinary abilities, he still felt a terrifying sense of oppression when faced with a natural disaster of this scale.

In the face of such a devastating disaster, human beings are as small as ants.

Even an evolver with a strong body becomes equal when faced with a natural disaster of this magnitude.

Once you fall into the cracks of the earth's crust, no matter who you are, it is likely that you will be crushed to pieces.

"Don't look." Ji Changqing held the frightened little thing tightly in his arms, and gently covered his eyes with his warm palms. "We came not too late. I put those who fell into the small world. No one died."

His voice was calm and gentle, with a reassuring strength, "Let's go somewhere safe first."

After saying that, he teleported his men out of the disaster area and into a hotel room.

Feeling that the person in his arms was still trembling slightly, Ji Changqing tightened his arms, gently stroked He Rui's back with his palm, lowered his head and leaned close to the person in his arms, and said in a very soft voice, "Don't be afraid."

As he spoke, he controlled the invisible wind element to clean the room, sweeping away all the dust and dirt.

Afterwards, he put away the original beds and furniture in the room one by one and replaced them with clean furniture he brought with him.

He Rui's eyes were still a little dazed, and he obviously hadn't fully recovered from the shock just now.

This disaster made him realize the horror of natural disasters and made him more awed by the Blue Planet.

In this world full of dangers, he was protected so well by Brother Ji and felt at ease for so long that he almost forgot the danger and cruelty of this world.

If the two of them fell into the crack at the same time while Brother Ji was unconscious, he would probably not only have no power to protect the other person, but would even be crushed and splattered with blood.

This realization sent chills down his spine.

"It's okay." Ji Changqing sensed his uneasiness and rocked him gently like a child, his warm palms slowly soothing his heart. "Take a deep breath."

He Rui's emotions gradually calmed down. He lowered his head and squeezed into Ji Changqing's arms, burying his face deeply in the other's neck.

"It's so scary..." His voice was hoarse and full of fear, "We have to take turns to keep watch from now on, otherwise if there is an earthquake while we are asleep..." That would be like going to heaven.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the other party's sudden and powerful grip of his arm.

Ji Changqing's voice was gentle, yet filled with unquestionable determination, "I'm here, don't worry."

He patted He Rui's back soothingly, sensing the emotions of the person in his arms. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly suggested, "Do you want to go and take a look at my little world?"

He wanted to try to distract the idiot.

He Rui raised his head, his eyes still filled with nervousness and hesitation, but also with a hint of curiosity. "Is it possible? Can I enter your little world by myself?"
