Chapter 126 The Second Tsunami
"I, Su Yiling, am making this clear today: if you ever need any help again, I will never help you again."
After finishing her sentence, Su Yiling ignored the person's reaction and walked away, no longer wanting to argue with them.
Such incidents happen in various places, and some people have already experienced them, so they choose not to rescue others.
On the other hand, Jiang Li and his group were the only six people there, since no one would think of climbing up the city wall. The top of the city wall was only wide enough for two people to sit side by side, so they could stay there comfortably.
When the tsunami hit, they had already climbed to the top of the city wall, so they could clearly see how the seawater flooded the base and how many people were swept into the water, but there was nothing they could do.
The water level remained at a certain height and did not rise further, but the current was still very rapid. The group wanted to take out the submarine, but they were afraid that they would be swept away before they could even get in it.
The group could only wait on the city wall until the water calmed down.
Everyone was wearing raincoats. The raincoats were thick and windproof, so they wouldn't be cold while wearing them.
The water wouldn't slow down anytime soon, so the group took turns on duty, resting on the city wall to conserve their energy. When they got hungry, they would eat some bread. Although they said they were resting up there, they couldn't actually fall asleep; they just closed their eyes and pretended to sleep.
Finally, after a long wait, the seawater became less turbulent. Jiang Li and the others were considering whether to take out the submarine or wait a little longer.
Suddenly, a very bright light shone down.
Everyone was instantly awakened.
Another tsunami is coming!
Jiang Li looked towards the sea and realized that she didn't even need binoculars this time; she could already see the giant waves. The roaring waves surged and rushed in, threatening to destroy the world. A bad premonition arose in her mind.
"Quickly, we have to leave now."
She moved quickly, first slinging her bag over her shoulder, then taking out a rope and having everyone tie it to their bodies. The city wall wasn't wide enough to fit a submarine, so there was only one way.
"I'll take out the submarine in a bit. We can point the door at myself. Gu Jin, you just need to hold my hand and go straight ahead, no need to worry about the direction. We'll try to get in as quickly as possible and then bring them into the submarine as well."
Jiang Li then turned to Fu Xiaxia and the others behind him and spoke.
"When the time comes, I'll bring out the submarine, and you should catch up as soon as possible."
Gu Jin wrapped her arms around Jiang Li's waist, ready to go, and the others nodded in response.
"good"
Only two people can stand in a row on the city wall. She took the submarine out of her spatial storage and placed it on the sea. They had to get in before the submarine was washed away.
"Then I've taken it out, you guys get ready."
Jiang Li addressed everyone, and only after they nodded did he take out the submarine.
"run."
Jiang Li shouted, and the group immediately ran towards him. Gu Jin also grabbed Jiang Li's waist and walked forward without hesitation.
Fortunately, the group had a high level of teamwork and all managed to get into the submarine smoothly. After closing the door and fastening their seatbelts, the submarine was suddenly swept away by a giant wave.
Jiang Li felt a wave of dizziness. His first thought was that it was a good thing he hadn't eaten much, otherwise he probably would have thrown up.
At the base, waves crashed against the buildings again and again, and the people inside could clearly feel that the buildings were shaking more violently this time than before.
Everyone in the swaying building sensed something was wrong. The waves kept crashing against the building, and the shaking became more and more violent. Everyone's faces turned extremely pale.
On the top floor of a building, several young people huddled in a corner wiping away tears.
"Why am I so unlucky? I finally earned enough points to rent a nicer place, and even bought some things I'd been saving up for a while to treat myself, and then the tsunami hit. All my money is gone, and my home is gone..."
"Me too. My wife ran off with someone else before. We were finally getting a little better off, and now this has happened again."
...
For a moment, the cries drowned out the roar of the waves.
A young girl sidled up to her boyfriend, fighting back tears and refusing to cry out loud.
"I have a feeling this building is about to collapse..."
The woman's voice trembled violently as she spoke, giving the impression of a strong woman trying her best to suppress her fear.
Men are very susceptible to this, and they immediately show their concern, their eyes filled with affection for the vulnerable.
Another woman standing nearby rolled her eyes so hard they almost popped out of her head.
Suddenly, a white line rolled rapidly towards us, faster and faster, until it exploded like a bomb, creating a vast expanse of waves.
A huge wave crashed over, and seawater rushed directly onto the roof.
Some people were quick to dodge; after a running start, they jumped and landed steadily, avoiding the waves perfectly.
The others weren't so lucky; they got completely soaked.
The seawater was icy cold, and when it poured over a person, it felt like being cut by ice scalpels.
Before anyone could react, another giant wave crashed in.
Clang!
The people's bodies tilted uncontrollably to one side, one side of the building caved in, and below was a surging, man-eating wave of blood!
The screams of men and women were deafening.
"Grab something, don't fall!"
Someone was shouting, their voice hoarse and hoarse, as if their throat had been torn apart.
The young girl had a weak core and couldn't hold onto the exposed steel bars after the building collapsed. She fell into the air, teetering on the verge of falling.
Her boyfriend bent down and pulled her up with all his might.
Some people were unlucky and fell into the waves and were swallowed by the sea.
The waves continued to roar, and the building wouldn't hold up for long in the storm. Everyone clung tightly to the walls, afraid to move.
The seawater gradually rose above their calves. Everyone held on for five or six hours until the waves became smaller and smaller. The survivors blinked with difficulty, their eyes bloodshot.
Someone opened their mouth, their lips were white from the cold, and their voice was trembling.
"Everyone... cough cough."
boom!
The building shook violently and half of it collapsed. Seawater reached waist-deep, and many people finally couldn't hold back their tears and cried uncontrollably.
"The waves have calmed down, let's hurry up and leave, we can't hold out here for much longer."
A few brave individuals found planks that could be used as boats, or located the small boat from the previous base nearby. After saying a few words to the others, they jumped in.
Carrying the planks or boats, Xiu Shuo quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Many people originally planned to wait until the storm completely subsided before setting off, but given the current situation, they can't wait any longer.
Many people followed the example of those who came before and began to flee this place. Some fled alone, while others fled in groups. Once someone took the lead, more and more people began to act.
A small wave crashed over, and the small wooden plank bounced and swayed precariously in the spray, turning the faces of many timid people pale.
As the seawater crashed against them, Jiang and his submarine drifted further and further away. At first, everyone was dizzy from the spinning, and by the time Gu Jin and the others regained control of the submarine, a while had passed.
