"Okay! I understand!"
Then Feng Yuanheng paused for a moment and said, "Brother Lu, take care of yourself!"
"Okay! I understand! Your brother is safe now! Don't worry!"
"Okay! I understand! Thank you!"
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan boarded the kayak. Because it was pitch black all around, they didn't know where they were and could only rely on their vague memories to search for survivors.
After rowing for a while, the small boat came to rest against a wall that was half submerged. Zhou Tong stood up and shouted into the wall, "Is anyone still alive inside? Answer me!"
After shouting several times, several heads immediately peeked out from the collapsed half of the office building above.
Then several beams of flashlight light shone over.
"Brother Zhou? President Lu?"
Lu Yuan nodded, shielding his eyes from the blinding flashlight beam: "How many people are inside?"
"There are over three hundred people here! We have about several dozen injured!"
"Okay! Wait inside! We're coming to rescue you!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan looked around and then said to Zhou Tong, "Old Zhou, keep the kayak steady, I'll swim in!"
Wang Mingming reached out and took out a test pen to measure it.
"There's a faint electric current, Brother Lu, maybe... maybe we should just row across!"
However, at that moment, Lu Yuan had already jumped into the water with a "plop".
The weak electric current in the water felt like tiny needles pricking into Lu Yuan's skin, but it was still within a tolerable range.
Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and then swam vigorously towards the other side.
Upon arrival, the group immediately pulled Lu Yuan over.
"Boss Lu! Are you alright?"
After recovering for a moment, Lu Yuan shook his head: "I'm fine! Have your people been organized?"
The other person quickly shone a flashlight inside: "Everything is ready!"
Lu Yuan stood up and looked at everyone. Everyone's eyes were filled with fear. Clearly, the rain and power outage had a huge impact on everyone's mental state.
Just as Lu Yuan was about to lead them away, the leader suddenly said, "Boss Lu, those devices..."
Looking in the direction the other person was pointing, I saw traces of some equipment still visible in the flooded area.
"What kind of equipment are these?"
"Um...they're all spinning equipment!"
"It should still be usable after being soaked in water, right?"
The other person thought for a moment and said, "It should work!"
"Okay! That's good! You guys come in with me first!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan flicked his finger, and everyone immediately disappeared from the spot.
Lu Yuan reached out and touched the water, feeling a tingling sensation.
"Phew! Gotta try it again?"
After taking a deep breath, Lu Yuan immediately waded into the water.
Fortunately, the protective clothing worn by electricians provides good protection.
Then Lu Yuan found the first piece of equipment and with a gentle thought, some of the equipment disappeared from the water.
After placing all the equipment into the dimensional space, Lu Yuan checked the time and realized that half an hour had passed without him noticing.
"Damn it! It's so slow!"
So Lu Yuan walked to the front door, took a deep breath, and plunged back into the leaky water.
Wang Mingming and Zhou Tong both looked at Lu Yuan with tense expressions. When Lu Yuan popped his head out of the water, they immediately grabbed him and pulled him onto the kayak.
"Brother Lu, are you alright?"
Lu Yuan nodded slightly: "The power is very weak, it just causes a slight stinging sensation, but it doesn't have any other effects."
Zhou Tong, standing to the side, said in a deep voice, "Lu Yuan, don't be careless. You are the backbone of all of us now. You absolutely cannot have anything happen to you! Even if it means we have to wait a while to rescue him, we can't take any more risks! Although the electricity in the water is very weak, prolonged contact could cause heart problems! Don't take this lightly!"
"Okay! Got it! Let's go to the next place!"
Just then, a series of "squeaking" sounds came from the distant sky. The sound grew louder and louder, and Lu Yuan's heart skipped a beat.
"Stop! Don't go any further!"
Zhou Tong and Wang Mingming quickly stopped the kayak and shone their flashlights in the direction Lu Yuan was pointing.
The flashlight beam gradually illuminated the situation overhead, making it clear.
A huge steel frame was teetering in the air, seemingly about to collapse. It didn't look very big to Lu Yuan and his group, but after being attacked by these steel frames several times, Lu Yuan knew that the area and structure of this steel frame should be at least several hundred square meters.
Something this big falling would have the same force as a piece of explosive material.
"Go! Go back!"
Lu Yuan shouted at the two of them in a deep voice.
Wang Mingming and Zhou Tong quickly took out their oars and began to slowly paddle the kayak backward.
They dared not make too much noise, for fear that an accidental loud sound might affect the mobility of the steel frame above.
Finally, just two minutes later, the steel frame overhead suddenly started creaking and groaning, and the shaking became even more intense.
Lu Yuan frowned as he looked into the distance, feeling extremely nervous. He was prepared to immediately take Zhou Tong and Wang Mingming into the dimensional space if the steel frame fell near him.
