Jian Xiuyun was pulled over by Xiao Jin and thrown behind him. Mao Liu was responsible for finding the car, as carrying someone on his back would be a burden to him.
Then Xiao Jin turned around and patted Tan Dong on the shoulder.
"A grown man should just bear with it."
"Yes!" Tan Dong nodded vigorously.
He is now lame, so he is naturally slower than others. If he wants to reduce the pain for Xiao Su who is supporting him, he has to move his injured leg faster.
Time waits for no one, and the supermarket above suddenly started shaking abnormally.
"Mao Liu!" Xiao Jin called out.
Mao Liu waded through the water and ran out quickly, finding the minivan in no time.
Fortunately, they didn't park in the open air when they parked, so the car wasn't badly damaged. At that moment, Mao Liu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his foot. His rain boots had been completely corroded by acid rain, and the acid was slowly seeping into the towel and spreading inside.
Despite the pain, Mao Liu quickly got into the car.
"That's enough, boss!"
Xiao Jin, carrying Jian Xiuyun on his back, rushed out first: "Let's go!"
Several people followed closely behind her.
The water outside was getting worse and soon reached everyone's ankles. As Xiao Jin was carrying Jian Xiuyun on his back and running forward, he suddenly heard a muffled groan in his ear.
It must have been the acid rain that burned the protective suits and landed on the people inside. Seeing this, Xiao Jin silently increased her speed.
Although she and Shang Fan were either carrying people on their backs or holding things, they were much faster than Tan Dong and Cheng Su behind them.
Rushing to the van, Xiao Jin opened the door, threw Jian Xiuyun onto the seat, and began working with Shang Fan to add another layer of protection to the van.
She remembered that when she was collecting supplies, she had obtained some acid-resistant paint. Regardless of whether the conditions for use were met, Xiao Jin directly opened the paint cap and poured it onto the car.
He then took the acid-resistant cloth from Shang Fan, and the two of them worked together to cover the top of the van.
At this moment, Tan Dong and his companion arrived. Their faces were obscured by the protective masks, but Tan Dong's body was swaying uncontrollably, and the hand gripping Cheng Su's arm was shaking incessantly. One could imagine how terrible his complexion must have been.
"Alright, Xiao Jin!"
"Get in the car quickly, Mao Liu, let's go!"
"Okay!" Seeing Xiao Jin jump into the car last, he didn't even wait for the door to close before stepping on the gas and driving off.
Because of the time crunch, there was still a lot of food that Mao Liu and the others had collected in the back seat. Shang Fan was in the passenger seat, so now there were four grown men crammed into the back.
Xiao Jin used his special ability to store all the supplies from the back seat into his spatial storage, which immediately made the space much larger.
After placing a small folding bed at the back and then tossing the unconscious Jian Xiuyun there, Xiao Jin took out several rolls of acid-resistant cloth and handed them to everyone.
“Seal it from the inside again, and also apply this paint. Shang Fan, you are responsible for applying a layer to the windshield.”
"Mao Liu, do you remember the location?"
Previously, the group had combined the map they found in the library with Tan Dong's description to successfully pinpoint the location of the air-raid shelter, which was about 30 kilometers away from the gas station where they were, not too far.
"Even though it was dark, I was able to find it."
"Okay, you just focus on driving, you don't need to worry about the rest!" Xiao Jin said calmly.
Following Xiao Jin's instructions, everyone wrapped the inside of the car with another layer of fabric. It has to be said that with this layer, everyone felt much more at ease, but once they relaxed, the pain in their bodies was amplified.
Everyone, including Xiao Jin, was burned to some extent by the acid rain, and for a moment the car was filled with the sound of gasping for breath.
Mao Liu was exposed to the outside for a relatively short time, so the area of his body corroded by acid rain was not that large. But Shang Fan and Xiao Jin were different; they were almost the last to get on the bus.
Not only were holes burned into their protective suits, but their throats and eyes also began to feel uncomfortable.
Shang Fan, being an ordinary person, did not have Xiao Jin's immense resilience. Sitting in the car, he couldn't help but take off his boots, and each tug on his sticky skin was a huge torment.
Considering the road ahead would be even more difficult, Shang Fan didn't waste the treatment spray. Instead, he wrapped his foot in a medical bandage to reduce the pain without hindering his movement.
As for the injuries on my body, let's leave them there for now!
Xiao Jin did not seek treatment. Others could not see it, but she knew that her injuries were actually less severe than the combined injuries of everyone else.
Previously on the train, Xiao Jin spent a lot of money to buy a mid-level protective suit. The price of 85 points was enough to deter most players, and the mid-level protective suit was indeed worth the price.
Acid rain penetrates the outermost layer of ordinary protective clothing, and by the time it reaches the intermediate layer of protective clothing, it has essentially caused little damage.
While Xiao Jin's protective suit was resisting the corrosive effects of acid rain, it was also rapidly repairing the holes that had been corroded out of sight.
After rounding up, Xiao Jin's injuries were pitifully few, so she didn't waste any medicine. Instead, she kept an eye on the situation outside, making sure she could react immediately if she noticed anything amiss.
Fortunately, apart from the road being a bit difficult to navigate and Mao Liu accidentally driving onto a side road, the group arrived at the vicinity of the air-raid shelter without incident.
Seeing that they had arrived at their destination, Xiao Jin decided to deal with the issue of his superpowers being exposed. He didn't need to worry about Mao Liu and Shang Fan for the time being; those two weren't stupid. They knew he had the ability and couldn't be offended, so they would definitely choose to keep quiet.
They might even run into Xiao Jin in the game world later, and it would be easy for Xiao Jin to kill them.
Xiao Jin was right. Even if Mao Liu and his companion had a lot of guts, they wouldn't dare to reveal the secret of the space! The two were still planning to continue currying favor with him.
As for Tan Dong, Xiao Jin will have to stay in this world for two more days. She has saved their lives, so it's unrealistic to expect them to keep quiet forever. But as long as they keep it a secret for her for the next two days, that's fine.
Then Xiao Jin turned to look at Tan Dong, where Cheng Su was treating the splint on his broken leg.
"Does it still hurt?" Tan Dong carefully lifted Cheng Su's hands, which were wrapped up tightly. Cheng Su smiled and nodded at Tan Dong.
Unfortunately, their expressions were completely hidden by their masks, so no one could see the deep affection between them.
Cheng Su, who was facing Xiao Jin, was the first to notice Xiao Jin's gaze. She tugged at Tan Dong, who was startled for a moment before quickly turning his head away.
"Xiao Jin?"
Xiao Jin remained silent, still unsure how to begin.
Seemingly sensing Xiao Jin's underlying meaning, Tan Dong readily agreed, saying, "Well... you saved both of us, so this is your privacy and I shouldn't be asking about it."
Xiao Su and I aren't talkative people, and we don't want to repay kindness with enmity. I just want to ask you, does this acid rain have anything to do with your ability?
