"Heyang County is too small, and the number of survivors is pitifully small, with poor information flow. I hope that after arriving in Haishi, we can find out some useful information."
Yang Shen was very curious about what the nuclear bomb had targeted.
If they are just infected people, there is no need to use nuclear bombs.
"Could it be a mutated creature? Or rather..."
Yang Shen couldn't help but think of the two flying palaces from last night. Even now, those two flying palaces still gave him a feeling of unfathomable mystery.
However, he also had some doubts: were those two flying palaces qualified to be bombed by nuclear bombs?
If, besides those two flying palaces, there is anything else that would warrant launching a nuclear missile?
At this moment, Yang Shen thought of another question: Was that nuclear bomb the first nuclear bomb to explode in three years?
Perhaps, without his knowledge, a nuclear bomb had already exploded somewhere?
Maybe the nuclear explosion happened on the other side of Earth?
It's possible that because of the great distance and the obstruction of the earth, mountains, buildings, and so on, they couldn't see the light or hear the sound, so they were unaware of it.
In that instant, Yang Shen thought of many things, such as where the space passages opened by those scientists led.
Did the catastrophic virus that appeared on Earth really originate from that spatial portal?
How did this virus come about?
Was it man-made, or for some other reason?
"Go! Let's go right now!"
Yang Shen pulled Elaine and started walking back.
At this moment, Liang Yueqin and the others also noticed the light on the horizon, and everyone was speculating about what was happening there.
"A nuclear bomb, it must be a nuclear bomb!"
"A nuclear explosion occurred in that direction. What was it that required a nuclear attack?"
"I knew it! I knew humanity wouldn't be defeated by the apocalypse! Humanity still has nuclear weapons! Nuclear weapons can destroy everything!"
People were talking about it, some were shocked, some were terrified, and some were excited.
At this moment, Yang Shen walked over and said loudly, "Drivers who have eaten, start driving immediately. Everyone, those who haven't eaten, make do with the reserve rations and get on the bus to eat."
"Brother Yang, what's wrong?"
"What happened?"
Gao Shou and Liang Yueqin hurriedly came over and asked.
"Don't ask so many questions, get in the car quickly. Liang Yueqin, remember to shield your breath and voice. Elaine, protect Liang Yueqin."
After Yang Shen finished speaking, he asked Mao Ya, "Can you continue driving?"
“No problem. I’ve gone three days and three nights without sleep before to survive, so what’s a few days of driving?” Mao Ya said, patting his chest.
"Alright, go get the car. I'll check the vehicle and catch up soon."
As Yang Shen spoke, he quickly walked towards the rear of the convoy, releasing his mental energy to scan the area.
The scan did indeed reveal some poisonous insects that had climbed onto the bus under the cover of night, but under the intimidating presence of Yang Shen, the insects fled for their lives.
This is only possible because of Yang Shen's existence. If it were someone else, they wouldn't even know if a poisonous insect crawled onto their car and bit them to death in the middle of the night.
The people from Heyang County immediately got into the car without daring to complain. Anyway, with Brother Yang protecting them, their lives wouldn't be in danger.
Two hundred meters behind, the people of Kaiyang County were stunned to see the convoy from Heyang County suddenly set off.
"Are they planning to travel at night?"
"This is too dangerous..."
"Uncle Steel, should we follow?"
Everyone instinctively turned their gaze to the steel-clad man, but quickly looked back at the young girl, Xu Tingting.
"Don't look at me, I don't know." Xu Tingting pouted. She wouldn't make the decision; she would feel guilty if someone died after she did.
This burden is too heavy; let Dad carry it.
"Keep up, keep up," Uncle Steel said without hesitation. Since someone was clearing the way, only a fool wouldn't follow.
Two vehicles from Kaiyang County also started up and quickly gave chase.
After checking all the vehicles and confirming that it was safe, Yang Shen sped up, quickly overtook the convoy, and got into the leading off-road vehicle.
The roadblocks in front of the tunnel had already been cleared by Gao Shou and his team.
When Mao Ya saw Yang Shen return, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother Yang, could that light on the horizon just now have been a nuclear bomb?"
"I don't know, just focus on driving," Yang Shen replied casually.
The duck immediately shut its mouth.
Soon, the convoy entered the tunnel and saw the still-burning wreckage of cars inside and the densely packed snake carcasses along the roadside. Everyone in the car felt a chill run down their spines.
"So Brother Yang killed so many snakes while digging the tunnel..."
"As expected of Brother Yang!"
Everyone was shocked. Some of the roasted snake carcasses were as big as a thigh, and they weren't pythons. They looked terrifying.
When the convoy from Kaiyang County arrived at the location of the snake's den, they were once again taken aback.
"It looks like he was burned to death. Could that young man be a fire-type ability user?" Uncle Steel guessed.
"Not a fire-based ability user," Tingting retorted from the back seat.
The steel-clad man's eyes lit up: "Tingting, you can tell? What kind of superhuman is he?"
"I can't tell," Tingting pouted. "Dad, have you ever seen a fire-elemental user with such great strength?"
“Well, that makes sense…” Uncle Steel scratched his head. “But the snake nest behind was clearly burned by flames. Even if that car exploded, it shouldn’t have killed so many snakes, right? The most important thing is that I saw the road surface and the walls on both sides seem to have crystallized, which was caused by the instantaneous high temperature.”
...
The two convoys continued their journey towards the city.
With Yang Shen fearlessly unleashing his aura to clear the way, the weak mutated creatures dared not block their path.
