"Wow, the floodwaters have already reached over thirty stories! It seems the rainfall is really fast!"
Lu Yuan quickly took out the oars and frantically paddled towards the building, while the water level continued to rise at a visible speed.
When Lu Yuan slid to the front of the building, the water level had already risen to the thirtieth floor, and that number had been submerged.
Lu Yuan packed his things, put the wooden box back into the dimensional space, and then climbed up the stairs.
Since the power was out, Lu Yuan had no choice but to use the emergency exit.
The emergency exit was pitch black, filled with a strong stench, and every now and then a few huge rats would gleam green in the darkness.
Lu Yuan held his breath, trying his best not to inhale the unknown smell spreading around him, and quickened his pace as he climbed the stairs.
After climbing for more than twenty minutes, Lu Yuan felt that he was having trouble breathing.

Lu Yuan held the phone quietly, waiting.
A few minutes later, a soft murmur came from the other end of the phone. Then Chen Yan picked up the phone and told Lu Yuan the safest and most convenient distance.
"Be extremely careful on your journey, there has been a riot here!"
Lu Yuan's heart sank: "Oh, try your best to control the situation, I'll be right there!"
