Chapter 43: Mayor, don't rush to sacrifice yourself
"The mayor is coming, make way, the mayor is coming!"
Just then, a voice came from behind the crowd.
A woman in a fiery red coat walked through the crowd.
"Make way!"
The mayor quickly made his way through the crowd, then ducked on the ground, touching the gap in the dam with his hands.
“Crack…”
The water in the breached dam froze instantly, and the thick ice completely blocked the gap.
Mayor, she is the most powerful ice-type mutant in Jiangcheng.
It would take several people to block the cracks, but she could block them all in just a blink of an eye.
"Mayor, you are amazing!"
Everyone was excited when they saw the mayor appear.
Even those who were timid and planned to leave secretly had the confidence to stay again.
The mayor listened to everyone's cheers, but looked at the dam with a serious expression and a frown.
She had come across three such gaps along the way.
As for the Huangu Dam, the actual situation may be worse than she expected.
Jiangcheng has a limited number of superpowers and is simply overwhelmed. Ordinary blocking methods are of little use, and no one knows when the reinforcements will arrive...
The mayor took a deep breath and said to the people nearby: "Everyone, be quiet!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd, which had been noisy just now, suddenly became quiet.
Even those who were further away were all listening quietly to what the mayor was saying.
Everyone looked at her with hope, but she said, "Those under 40 should all go to safe havens now..."
As soon as these words came out, the crowd exploded.
"Mayor, is the dam really going to collapse?"
"We're not leaving..."
"What if everyone leaves and there's no one here?"
"Mayor, you must have a solution, right?"
…
All the people nearby started talking almost at the same time, and the originally quiet dam suddenly became extremely noisy.
The mayor simply pressed down with his hand, and the crowd soon quieted down.
"Everyone listen to me. I will do my best to save the dam, but the evacuation action cannot be delayed..."
Time was limited, so the mayor simply said, "If you are under 40, leave now and don't stay here."
The mayor spoke again, and everyone listened carefully, their eyes still stubborn.
But those who were timid, after hearing the mayor's words, hesitated and planned to leave early.
It’s not that they are afraid of death, it’s just that they have elderly people and children waiting for them at home.
There were also some unmarried, brave ones, even if they were very young, and they all stayed.
Seeing this, the mayor had no time to continue persuading him.
But the people living on the dam have already deeply understood the crisis of the dam.
Silence spread to every corner of the dam.
The mayor asked someone to send her the "evaluation map" of the dam, then she picked the weakest point and walked slowly towards it.
With her level of supernatural powers, even if she activated the source of her supernatural powers and condensed an ice wall, she would not be able to cover the entire dam.
However, covering half is enough.
The remaining half, with the current number of people with special abilities in Jiangcheng, can hold out for one more day.
Within one day, when the news of her sacrifice is learned in the capital, people will be sent to provide support in time.
Enough time, but she hasn't lived enough...
She walked slowly towards her destination and suddenly felt a fear of death.
No one is not afraid of death, and she is no exception.
However, there are many ways to die, and the one she chose is very valuable.
"Chiu~"
"Chirp~"
Just as the mayor arrived at his destination, two huge parrots flew in the sky.
Liu Wanqing and another garrison soldier arrived in time.
"Mayor, please reconsider this!"
"Mayor, even if the dam breaks, we can evacuate the citizens in time."
The two of them rushed over mainly to protect the mayor from being attacked by mutant beasts when he used his superpowers.
But after they learned of the mayor's plan, they couldn't help but run over to persuade him again.
"No."
The mayor looked down at this section of the dam, squatted down and touched the soil on the ground, then clapped his hands and said, "This is it, everyone step back."
Once she has made up her mind, no one can change it.
Liu Wanqing and another garrison soldier had the same personality as her. They all kept silent and stared at her for a long time before letting the parrot take them into the air.
Liu Wanqing, who had just flown high into the sky, felt sad and couldn't help but look up into the distance.
Maybe she was too tired recently and had an illusion. She actually saw a group of porpoises swimming upstream in the river.
Even, there was a small animal standing on the back of each of the group of finless porpoises.
Even the naughty monkey was standing on the back of the porpoise.
And the little girl Xu Xinxin was also sitting on the porpoise's back, waving at her...
Wait a minute, these don’t seem to be illusions!
Liu Wanqing looked at the scene in front of her in surprise and rubbed her eyes hard to make sure she was not seeing things.
Just then, her card rang. It was Xu Xinxin calling.
As soon as the call was connected, the excited voice of a young girl came from the inside: "Sister Wanqing, I'm here with the supernatural animals to support us. Please give me a location quickly, and we will go to plug the crack now!"
The wind was strong in the air, but Liu Wanqing understood Xu Xinxin's meaning very clearly, and immediately shouted to the mayor below:
"Mayor, don't be too quick to sacrifice yourself. Support is here!"
“Crack…Crack…”
The mayor, squatting on the dam, began to use his supernatural powers with a fearless attitude.
A cold ice wall instantly formed next to the dam.
But at the moment when Liu Wanqing's voice rang out, the ice wall was halfway through solidification when it suddenly ended.
The mayor stood up and asked, "The support you mentioned is..." where.
Before she finished her words, she saw a young girl sitting on a porpoise on the river with a smile on her face. Behind her was a group of small animals swimming in the water and flying in the sky, and they were coming towards her quickly.
Liu Wanqing was afraid that she didn't hear clearly, so she shouted again: "Mayor, these are animals with supernatural powers, they are all here to support us!"
At this time, the people who were still on the dam also saw that a large group of small animals suddenly appeared on the river and all swam towards this direction.
Some people who didn’t know the truth were almost frightened and exclaimed: “Oh my God, could it be that mutant creatures are attacking?!”
"No way, mutant creature, why did you choose this time to come here?"
"It's over, now everyone is done..."
Just when everyone was getting anxious, someone saw Xu Xinxin and immediately pointed at her and said loudly:
"Look, there's a person over there!"
Hearing the exclamation, everyone squinted their eyes to look, and sure enough, they found a young girl sitting on the leading porpoise, waving at the sky.
Everyone suddenly had an outrageous yet hopeful idea.
This person... Could it be that she brought these animals here to provide support?
