All work within the fortress has now ceased, and everyone has returned to their lodgings.
Apart from Guo Jialiang, who brought a few people to guard his office, everyone else could only hide in their homes, trembling with fear.
He shouted to the assistants behind him.
"Open this lock for me, I need to go in!"
The assistant didn't know what Guo Jialiang was up to, but seeing his anxious expression, he didn't think much of it.
They found a winch nearby, unlocked the door, and Guo Jialiang pushed open the door and rushed inside.
Lu Yuan was standing on the stairs, constantly looking out the window.
Before long, another fortress was blown to pieces by the superstorm.
This is already the fourth fortress; they are basically all fortresses that Guo Jialiang's men repaired.
These fortresses, which had been destroyed once before, were still not strong enough even after being repaired.
Lu Yuan had a feeling that all the fortresses that Guo Jialiang had repaired were probably doomed.
Looking at the largest and most solid core fortress, Lu Yuan kept telling himself that he had to pull through.
At that moment, Lu Yuan suddenly felt something cover the glass window, which was about half a meter thick.
Then he couldn't see anything anymore.
"Ugh, really, even this small window is covered up with something. I can't even see what's going on outside. I'd better get back to work."
Lu Yuan sighed and climbed down the ladder.
Continue to inspect this protective layer with your family.
Every area that has been inspected is marked with a marker. The highest-standard technology was used when this protective layer was built. Although the time was short, it does not mean that the workmanship is rough.
After a day, everyone finally finished inspecting all the places.
After finishing everything, everyone was exhausted and sat down on the ground.
This repair took a lot of their effort, and Xiaoshan's mother smiled as she watched everyone sitting on the ground.
"Warriors, you've worked hard. Our logistics department has prepared a delicious meal for you. Please go back and eat now!"
Upon hearing Xiaoshan's mother's words, the family members burst into laughter.
So the group went back to the restroom, washed up briefly, and then returned to the dining table.
While eating, they chatted about what had just happened outside. When Lu Yuan mentioned that the fortresses that Guo Jialiang had repaired were destroyed during the first super storm, everyone looked saddened.
"When they built this fortress, it wasn't very sturdy to begin with, so it was to be expected that the core of it would be destroyed in the face of this superstorm!"
Lu's father nodded slightly, picked up a piece of food, and ate while talking.
"Yes, I've been to that place. The workmanship was so rough it was appalling. I knew it was no good after just one visit!"
The old man sat quietly eating his food, but after hearing Lu's father's comments, he couldn't help but glare at him.
"You talk too much, and you think you're the only one who's ever worked in renovations?"
After being scolded by the old man, Mr. Lu lowered his head and pouted.
"I'm telling the truth. The workmanship over there is really rough. If I were to fix it, there's no way it would be destroyed in the first superstorm. It would at least hold out for a few days!"
"Alright, alright, stop talking. Let's talk about something else. Let's not keep bringing up such heavy topics. Are we even allowed to eat?"
The old man spoke, so everyone immediately changed the subject.
However, the topics that people can talk about at home are basically the plantation or the youngest child, Qiqi.
As soon as the topic of Qiqi's upbringing came up, everyone started discussing it with great enthusiasm.
“Lu Yuan, now that we’re back, we can help you take care of the child. We have so many people here to take care of one child, it should be more than enough. Aunt Liu has been working hard lately, so let her get some rest. We’ll take care of Qiqi!”
With a smile on her face, Aunt Lu looked at Qiqi in Aunt Liu's arms and immediately beamed, reaching out to take her in.
Xiao Shan's mother quickly chimed in.
“In-laws, let us take care of the children. You’ve been very busy lately, handling everything back home. Let us help take care of them!”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Lu was immediately displeased.
"No, no, no, how can that be considered hard work? It's just moving cement and sandbags or something, it's not much of a job. We'll take care of the kids, you guys rest!"
So the two families started arguing about the child again.
Lu Yuan watched from the side and smiled helplessly.
"Alright, let's not argue about this anymore. How about this, we make a schedule, each family takes turns taking care of her for a week, that way Qiqi can adapt better, what do you guys think?"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's decision, his family members all nodded in agreement.
Just then, a loud noise suddenly came from outside.
Upon hearing the noise, Lu Yuan quickly put down what he was holding and ran towards the glass window.
Lu's father, Xiaoshan's father, and the old man all followed after them.
With a tense expression, Xiao Shan quickly took Qiqi from Aunt Liu's arms.
The child was so frightened by the loud noise that he started crying.
Lu Yuan picked up the ladder and climbed up.
I was about to peek out the dimly lit window.
Suddenly, he felt a drop of water fall onto his hair. He looked up at the sky above him.
Sometime later, a crack appeared above my head.
That area was inspected yesterday, and it was marked with a marker.
But unexpectedly, a crack appeared in such a short time, and water slowly seeped down, dripping faster and faster.
Lu Yuan suddenly felt a little flustered.
"Damn it, the thing I feared most has happened. Dad, go get the crack detector. Let's see how big the crack is!"
Mr. Lu nodded immediately and ran quickly toward the tool shed.
A short while later, he returned carrying a fully charged crack detector and handed it to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan picked up the detector, adjusted the data, and probed in the direction of the dripping water.
The information above the instrument immediately came through with a "beep beep beep".
After looking at the information above, Lu Yuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"How are you? Is there any danger?"
