Chapter 400 They Escaped
Aunt Niu's screams echoed in the dungeon.
The others seemed not to notice and were only concerned with dealing with the closed door.
After venting his anger, the man ran and kicked the door.
Aunt Niu fell to the ground with her face red and swollen. She looked at the person who hit her with hatred.
If her son hadn't run away and she couldn't find him, she wouldn't have ended up like this.
Sooner or later she would kill the man who beat her.
Aunt Niu thought sinisterly.
Just as I was about to stand up, something seemed to drip down beside me.
She touched it subconsciously.
"Oh, my hand hurts!"
Violent screams resounded throughout the dungeon again. Aunt Niu's hand was burned and a layer of skin was broken instantly.
The man who kicked the door stopped and shone his flashlight over there.
"It's...it's magma. How could magma penetrate into the underground city?"
“Could it be the earthquake?”
A dozen people were terrified and didn't care about supplies at this time.
They all ran towards an underground passage.
Aunt Niu endured the pain and wanted to run after him.
But as soon as she stood up, another ball of lava fell beside her.
The lava fell directly onto Aunt Niu's face and shoulders.
Another severe pain came, and Aunt Niu fell to the ground and rolled over in pain.
The people who had just run away ran back, with cold sweat on their faces and fear in their hearts.
"It's all lava. We can't escape."
"Go find those soldiers and let them figure it out."
A dozen people had similar ideas and ran in the direction they had just escaped with flashlights in hand.
No one cared about Aunt Niu who was rolling on the ground in pain, and everyone was just trying to run away.
When they arrived, they found that the tens of thousands of people had disappeared.
In such a huge underground city, there were only a dozen of them left.
"Where are the people? Where did they go?"
“Why is there no one?”
They ran around for a long time but didn't find anyone.
There were only a dozen people in the empty dungeon, which seemed quiet and eerie.
They couldn't figure it out and felt like they were having a nightmare.
Some people pinch themselves hard and find it hurts, so they are not dreaming.
"Have we been abandoned? Where have they gone?"
A woman started crying.
She regretted it. If she had known not to cause trouble with these dozen people and just stayed quiet, things wouldn't have turned out like this.
Others have regrets too.
They stood there, at a loss, not knowing what to do.
There was lava everywhere outside and they couldn't escape.
Now the earthquake has caused the ground to collapse, and sooner or later the magma will cover the underground city. What should they do then?
“Ah, there is magma here.”
"There's one over there, too. Run!"
The dozen or so people in the dungeon started to get chaotic.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian didn't know about their situation because they had left the underground city long ago.
The two men were flying a helicopter with a sea of fire behind them.
The entire Nanshi City was engulfed in flames in just a few hours.
The volcano still erupts occasionally, but fortunately Gu Luan and Jiang Xian are far away.
The sky was pitch black, filled with nothing but thick smoke.
Due to the obstruction of thick smoke, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian's vision was also restricted.
They were looking for the official military that had left the Nanshi base.
Because of the thick smoke, we searched for over an hour but didn't find any official military presence.
Jiang Xian lowered the helicopter again, but his speed was not fast.
“There seems to be light there.”
Two cities away in Nanshi, Gu Luan finally spotted the large army.
There was a faint light in the thick smoke, which was undoubtedly the resting place for the large troops.
After running around for several hours without stopping once, everyone at the Nanshi base was finally able to take a break after arriving at a relatively safe place.
After experiencing many natural disasters, there are only more than 6 million people left in the Nanshi base.
This time, because the escape was too chaotic, more than 100,000 people died.
Under the smoke, more than six million people sat on the ground gasping for breath, no one spoke.
The atmosphere was so depressing that it was suffocating, and occasionally, suppressed crying could be heard.
Many people looked up in the direction of South City, feeling sad and grief-stricken.
They have no home anymore!
Why is God so cruel?
"Oh, I don't want to leave."
"I don't want to leave either. This is our home."
"Damn God, why do you do this to us?"
The endless natural disasters have made them unable to sleep peacefully, and now a volcano has erupted.
They watched their hometown engulfed in flames and could only helplessly escape.
In a tent, the top military officials of the Nanshi base were holding a meeting.
"There are still civilians and comrades in the base who haven't escaped in time. We must go and rescue them."
The speaker was a middle-aged officer.
"It's not that we don't want to rescue them. You can see the current situation. There's an earthquake over there. I'm afraid..."
A senior official has spoken up.
The middle-aged officer understood, his eyes reddened, "Are we just going to watch them die without helping? Those are real lives!"
"Save them. We must save them, but we need to discuss how to save them."
The chief and the base commander sitting in the first seat said at the same time.
No matter what, they must do everything they can to save people.
"Let's move in batches. One group will rescue people, and another group will take the people to Province W."
Province W is closest to them, and they were able to communicate on the phone before the volcanic eruption.
The response from the other side was that as long as Province A was in trouble, they would be available to help at any time.
It has been several hours since the volcanic eruption, and Province W must have been sending people here.
It’s just that the natural disaster has made the roads difficult to travel on, so there will definitely be delays.
They cannot put their hopes on rescue from Province W. If they want to survive, they can only save themselves first.
"No matter how difficult the road ahead is, we will definitely get through it safely."
The old chief of the Nanshi base stood up with a determined look in his eyes.
Everyone stood up and said in unison, "Yes, we can definitely get through this safely."
The old leader was filled with satisfaction and continued to arrange the next actions.
Rescue operations in Nanshi will definitely be difficult, as it is very likely that something has already happened there.
No matter what, they must not give up.
"Chief!"
A soldier ran in, looking excited.
The old chief looked at the soldier who ran in, "What's wrong?"
“Escaped…Escaped. They escaped.”
"What?"
After Gu Luan and Jiang Xian discovered the large force at the Nanshi base, they did not approach.
They found a safe place to collect the helicopter and then released the people in the space.
In addition to the people in the space, Gu Luan also took out the supplies from the Nanshi base.
Except for the thousands of firewood containers.
She felt that it was safer for her to keep than for anyone else.
If the country needs these in the future, she will give them all out.
After releasing these, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian entered the space.
In the space, thousands of acres of land were planted, and Gu Luan was very satisfied.
"Killing two birds with one stone is a good reward, right?"
Gu Luan tilted her head to look at Jiang Xian beside her and said with a smile.
Jiang Xian held her in his arms and kissed her on the forehead, "Yeah."
Gu Luan looked at the space where the thick fog was gradually dissipating and smiled with satisfaction.
She feels great to be able to use the space for more meaningful things.
Outside the space, tens of thousands of people who had just left the space looked on in confusion.
Somehow, they seemed to have lost part of their memory.
"Why am I here?"
"I'm running for my life, but I'm about to be eaten by mutant animals."
"I was clearly in the dungeon, why did I come out?"
Countless people were confused and panicked.
When they found themselves in a safe place, they all cried for joy.
