Chapter 262: Opening the Door to the People and Arriving at the Imperial Encampment
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, almost submerging the car's exhaust pipe. Zhang Lei had no choice but to get out of the car and sweep the snow to prevent the spark plugs from getting wet and causing the vehicle to stop working.
What's worse, since they had been driving on the road for five or six hours and participated in the rescue, they were exhausted both physically and mentally, and were plagued by hunger and dehydration all the time.
Dong An, in particular, was prone to hunger due to her pregnancy, and she also participated in the subsequent work of transporting the wounded, so she was now starving.
Even though he didn't say it, Zhang Lei still saw his wife's dilemma. As the head of the family, he had to protect his wife and unborn child.
So he took the initiative to ask the owners of other vehicles if they had any extra food, and the first person he chose was the young man in the car in front.
When Zhang Lei, wrapped in a blanket, knocked on the window of the car in front, the young man quickly got out of the car.
After learning about the plight of Zhang Lei and his wife, he took out the bread that he had originally intended to eat without hesitation, and the truck driver who had been lying in the back seat of the truck hurriedly said, "Brother, I have a pot in my truck."
"Luckily, what I pulled out were Chinese cabbages. Since my sister-in-law is hungry, go get two Chinese cabbages and cook them. They will be of some use. Share some with the others."
If everyone hadn't pulled him out of the squeezed and deformed front of the truck, he would have died long ago. The truck driver now wished he could stuff all the cabbages into everyone's stomachs to thank them for saving his life.
"Well, thank you, brother." Zhang Lei's lips trembled slightly, and his hand holding the truck driver's hand moved up and down.
"Don't thank me, go now, don't let your sister-in-law go hungry."
"Why!"
After leaving the car in front, Zhang Lei moved forward in the snow with difficulty, step by step. Although the front of the truck hit the railing, most of the doors had been opened during the previous rescue, so it was not a problem to pick up a pot.
Just when Zhang Lei had just pulled the pot off the car with great difficulty, the roar of a helicopter came from far above his head.
"What's that sound? Is the rescue coming?" Drivers came out of their cars one after another and looked up.
I saw two pure black helicopters dropping ladders, and soon a group of young people climbed down the ladders. They seemed to be - high school students?
The drivers present looked at each other, somewhat confused. So was this a rescue?
Just when people were doubting themselves, Wen Xi led a group of national Ye Luoli warriors to jump to the top of the vehicle that was scrapped due to a car accident.
"Everyone listen carefully. Time is short and the task is heavy. Our goal is to clear this important highway as soon as possible and then spread it to the surrounding areas immediately after it is cleared!" Wen Xi took the lead and gave the order.
The highway in front of us just leaves Yan City and is not far from the urban area, but it was the worst hit by the disaster, so the Emergency Support Department arranged them here first.
"Understood, Captain." Zina shook her hair confidently, took out two cards and eliminated all the accumulated vehicles blocking the road, while the other Ye Luoli warriors also displayed their skills one after another.
In less than a quarter of an hour, all the snow on the road had melted away, and a complete road was opened.
Long before Wang Mo and other Ye Luoli warriors were still playing house games, Wen Xi had already submitted a request and established her own Ye Luoli warrior team.
And Zina is one of them.
She deeply understood that in this aggregated society, unless one had strength that surpassed everyone else, it would be impossible to fight alone.
If you want to become a strong person, you must have your own power, and this nationally organized Ye Luoli team is the foundation of her success.
As for why Zina was chosen? Because she also had half the aura of a protagonist. After Xin Ling refused to split Fei Ling, she was lucky enough to be spotted by a fairy from the Investigation Bureau.
Yes, without the Empire's instructions, she was really chosen by a fairy from the Investigation Bureau by luck alone.
After Wen Zheng knew about this, she couldn't help but sigh that she was indeed a girl with half the aura of the protagonist.
Here, Zhang Lei watched a group of boys and girls who looked like Sailor Moon and Kamen Rider easily use magic to lift and straighten the collapsed vehicle. He couldn't help but wonder if he was dreaming.
"Am I too tired? I actually saw such a strange scene?" Zhang Lei rubbed his eyes and walked back unsteadily.
As a result, he hit the guy in the car in front before he reached the car.
"Oh, I'm sorry, brother. My eyesight is a little blurry and I didn't see you." Zhang Lei apologized to the young man with some guilt.
But who would have thought that the young man was not angry at all. Instead, he grabbed Zhang Lei's shoulders and shook him back and forth, "Brother, I seem to be blind. I saw magic!"
Hearing what the young man said, Zhang Lei was shocked, thinking that he was right.
"You saw it too? I thought I was seeing things."
"You're not seeing things, there really is magic in this world!" The young man looked at Wen Xi and the other boys and girls with great excitement, and he wished he could take out his transformation device and transform immediately.
Although Yue Heng cast his projections on various countries, they are not available everywhere. After all, that consumes too much spiritual energy.
In addition, everyone on the highway was busy transporting the wounded and had no time to look at their phones, so they didn't know that such a big thing had happened.
Meanwhile, Wen Xi, who had quickly resolved the situation, met the drivers' surprised or incredulous looks and smiled gently, "We are Ye Luoli warriors affiliated with the National Bureau of Investigation, and we are participating in this disaster relief under the orders of the higher-ups."
"The country has never forgotten you!"
"Of course, I also know that you are surprised that we can use magic. Regarding this matter, the country will issue a detailed report after the snowstorm. Comrades, please wait for a while."
After saying that, Wenxi saluted and led the team members to quickly climb up the helicopter ladder, leaving everyone with a confused and excited look on their faces.
The young man was the first to react and bumped into Zhang Lei, "The road has been cleared, so we can go now?"
“Yes…right.”
"But I didn't expect that there is actually magic in the world! Do you think it will become popular in the country in the future?"
"have no idea."
…………
Unlike Wen Xi and her group who were carrying out disaster relief work everywhere, Wang Mo and other unorganized Ye Luoli warriors had already arrived above the Fuso Nuclear Power Plant, which is where the empire is stationed.
Facing the patrolling guards, Wang Mo took the lead and shouted to them: "We are here to persuade the king of the empire not to harm the human world. Please let us in."
The guard fairy glanced at them, then scanned Wang Mo and others with the radiation detector in her hand. After confirming that there was no threat, she let them in directly.
"Just go straight ahead."
"Okay, okay. Thank you."
Seeing the fairy guard being so straightforward, Wang Mo, who thought he would need to say a lot of words, was stunned for a moment, and then kept bowing and thanking her until Chen Sisi tugged at the corner of his clothes and he stopped.
"let's go."
"Um."
The temporary garrison of the empire was not prosperous. Although the fairies had the ability to create buildings through magic, Yue Heng himself did not love to enjoy himself, so he did not waste his fairy power.
When Wang Mo and his companions arrived in the hall, they saw Yue Heng sitting on a rattan chair, slowly flipping through a book.
The man in front of me with a smile on his face doesn't look like a king. Instead, he looks more like an ordinary office worker reading a book and drinking afternoon tea in a coffee shop.
Seeing Wang Mo and others coming, Yue Heng was a little surprised, but he still politely put the book away.
"It seems that you are here to convince me. Come on, I want to hear your reasons."
