Upon finding their eldest and fourth uncles, the second, third, and fifth uncles were so excited that they wanted to personally go and pick them up.
"Fifth Uncle, why don't you stay? We still need you to keep things running. Others might not be as thorough as you."
Qin Su persuaded him, saying that among his uncles, only his fifth uncle did not have any special abilities.
This time, we're going to the seabed where there are schools of monster fish; it's very dangerous for people without superpowers to go there.
“Yes, Fifth Brother, you should stay. We can’t all leave. We’ll feel most at ease if you stay and keep the house safe.”
My second and third uncles also joined in the persuasion.
Fifth Uncle's face fell: "Fine, I'll just wait at home."
"Don't try to comfort me with those words. I know I don't have any special abilities, and I'll only be a hindrance if I go."
Seeing his dejected look, no one said much.
But they couldn't teach him about superpowers either.
The underwater city has about 10,000 inhabitants, but only 20 aircraft. Each aircraft can carry a maximum of 100 people, meaning that only 2,000 people can be transported at a time, and it would take five trips to complete the transport.
A round trip takes about four hours, so five trips would take 20 hours.
"Everyone, please work hard to bring the people from the underwater city back safely."
Although 20 hours is not a long time, Qin Su still felt a little worried.
"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, and Li Tang, you must always pay attention to the surrounding movements."
"If all else fails, preserving your own lives is the most important thing!"
Qin Su thought about it and went along too.
She had a bad feeling, but she didn't know where the bad thing would happen.
However, Hope Base is heavily guarded, and its basic infrastructure is complete, so the interstellar people cannot attack it for the time being.
The round trip shouldn't be too much of a problem.
But the underwater city was different; she always felt that the place was eerie.
The interstellar people have transformed the entire ocean area; how could they not know about underwater cities?
Or are the people in the underwater city also their test subjects?
Thinking of this, Qin Su increased the speed of the aircraft even more.
"Oh my god, why is Miss driving so fast?"
Li Tang, who had once studied spaceship piloting, exclaimed in surprise, "Even an expert like me can only see the afterimage of the spacecraft in front of me. How did you manage to do that, Miss?"
"Let's speed things up too!"
The second and third uncles also sped up; this trip was to transport people out of the interstellar people's test base, and they couldn't afford to make any mistakes.
"Okay!"
"Acceleration!"
Li Tang felt like he was young again, and the feeling of flying in the sky was really wonderful.
They arrived at their destination in just one and a half hours, a journey that should have taken two hours.
On the sea, schools of fish were swimming back and forth, as if sounding an alarm.
"Master, we've been discovered!"
Xie Erxun exclaimed in surprise that these fish were controlled by interstellar people.
Under normal circumstances, they move freely in the sea.
They only appear on the sea surface in groups when manipulated by interstellar beings.
"The people in the underwater city are in danger; we must go down and rescue them immediately."
Qin Su frowned. Given the nature of the interstellar people, if the experiment went wrong, they would probably exterminate the people in the underwater city.
"But with so many ferocious fish, how are we going to get down there?"
Xie Erxun knew how powerful these fish were; even he, an interstellar being, couldn't escape from the mouths of so many fish.
Moreover, besides themselves, there are so many ordinary people in the ocean.
"Then kill them!"
Qin Su could feel the tremors underground, which was likely the collapse of the underwater city.
If they don't hurry, the people in the underwater city will either drown or be eaten by these fish.
"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, get ready to unload!"
Anticipating the danger, she had filled the aircraft with explosives.
If we can't go down, then let's blast these fish to death first.
"Alright, let's go!"
Qin Sufei's second and third uncles followed him to the sea and dropped the explosives.
Bang bang bang!
As explosions echoed across the sea, the fish that had been huddled together began to scatter frantically.
"As expected of a product of interstellar people, they are just as afraid of death as interstellar people."
Seeing the fish scatter in just a quarter of an hour, Qin Su snorted coldly.
"Help!"
Time is of the essence. Although the fish have escaped, the interstellar people must have discovered what's going on here.
They had to move the people of the underwater city to the safest place in the shortest possible time.
Xie Erxun led the way back to the previous entrance, but by then, the entrance had been sealed off.
Seawater was continuously pouring into the underwater city, accompanied by constant tremors and cries of alarm.
"What do we do? We can't get out!"
Are we going to die?
"Waaaaah, the seawater is already up to my neck, I'm about to be submerged..."
Xie Erxun nervously pried open the door with his bare hands. These people were his friends; how could he just watch them die?
But the door was very heavy, and no matter how much force he used, he couldn't pry it open.
The brothers went to help, but it didn't work.
Qin Su observed the surroundings, estimating the force required to open the door and the impact on the survivors inside.
"Get out of my way!"
She felt that if she tried her best, she should be able to succeed.
Once everyone had left, Qin Su took a deep breath and aimed her strength at the door.
Bang!
With a huge explosion, a hole was broken in the door.
The people inside were swept in, but Qin Su exerted his strength again and brought the water flow under control.
"I can't hold out much longer, you all need to get everyone out of here right now!"
The brothers didn't dare to delay and arranged for people to come out as quickly as possible.
The eldest and fourth uncles were the last to come out. They wanted to leave with Qin Su, but Qin Su stopped them.
"You go first. I'll hold back for a bit. The force of the seawater is too much for you to handle."
The eldest and fourth uncles knew that if they stayed, they would only hold Qin Su back, so they quickly left.
Finally, when everyone was safe, Qin Su felt her body go limp.
She gathered her strength and used her last bit of energy to rush towards the sea.
Her uncles were already waiting at sea, and when they saw Qin Su come out to sea, they immediately brought her over.
“They will definitely send people from interstellar space. Uncles, we don’t have much time. Let’s get everyone to a safe location first.”
"We'll return to Hope Base once the danger from the interstellar beings is gone."
Qin Su took a breath and looked at the light coming from the horizon.
Those were beams of light emitted by an interstellar spacecraft. Judging by the intensity of the light, they would be arriving in less than three hours.
"Okay, everyone line up..."
The eldest and fourth uncles organized the evacuation, and the people in the underwater city lined up quietly.
The first wave of aircraft still carried the elderly, children, and the wounded.
The second wave consisted of women, followed by young adults.
Finally, just as Qin Su and her uncles were about to take off, a huge flying machine blocked their way!
