They gradually left the high-rise villa and went to check other villas, where they found that many refugees had already arrived.
Some of them were counting supplies, some were installing protective equipment, and some were organizing personnel.
"Hello everyone, I'm Junjue, the temporary manager of the official shelter," Junjue called out, attracting everyone's attention. He explained the current situation and the villa's typhoon-resistant capabilities to the crowd.
The crowd began to murmur, expressing their concerns and anxieties. The Duke decided to have an in-depth conversation with everyone so that they would understand how to take appropriate protective measures.
"Everyone, please calm down. I understand your concerns, but we must be prepared to weather this powerful typhoon." Junjue's voice resonated throughout the villa, bringing a sense of reassurance.
"The authorities have taken a series of measures to ensure that the structure and equipment of the villa can withstand the test of a strong typhoon. We have enough food, water and medical equipment, as well as backup generators, in case of emergency," Junjue said with confidence and strength.
Wan'er stepped forward, picked up a protective mask, and gestured for everyone to pay attention. "Everyone should wear these protective masks. They can effectively block dust and impurities in the air. Also, please remember not to go out, so you don't get blown away."
The crowd began to receive protective masks in an orderly manner and then accepted the distribution of other protective equipment.
Their unease was gradually replaced by confidence, because they believed that since Junjue and Wan'er had saved them once, they would do everything in their power to protect them now.
"Thank you, two heroes. We feel very safe with you here. We will be careful."
"Thank you for your hard work, heroes. We are very relieved to have you here."
Junjue continued to communicate with everyone, telling them what preparations they needed to make before the strong typhoon arrived. "Everyone needs to secure items in the villas that are susceptible to wind damage, close all doors and windows, and protect their valuables. At the same time, we will arrange for personnel to patrol to ensure the safety of the villas."
Following the Lord's instructions, everyone began to act methodically, carrying out the preparations in an orderly manner. Their actions exuded a resolute and united strength, seemingly transcending the threat of the powerful typhoon.
Junjue and Wan'er stood in the center of the villa, looking at everyone's efforts, a feeling of admiration welling up in their hearts. "We must persevere and do everything we can to protect everyone's safety," Junjue said softly, and Wan'er held his hand tightly.
After observing the other refugees from the villas taking precautions, Junjue and Wan'er returned to their own villa at 6 PM.
"My Lord, this typhoon looks really scary. Are you sure the villas in the official shelter can withstand it?" Wan'er asked with some concern.
Junjue took a deep breath, trying to remain calm, and replied reassuringly, "Wan'er, the villas here are designed according to the latest building standards and should be able to withstand the test of this strong typhoon."
Since you're so worried, let's go check it out to make sure everything is safe.
She walked to Junjue's side and replied with some relief:
"Okay! Let's go then!"
Upon hearing Wan'er's words, Junjue led her and the two dogs to explore the surrounding area.
They walked out of the villa, through the garden, and into the backyard. A strong wind had already begun to blow, causing the trees to sway violently, as if they might be uprooted at any moment.
Wan'er gripped Junjue's hand tightly, her heart filled with fear.
Seeing that the people outside had already reinforced the villa's windows, and looking at the wooden boards fixed to the windows, the three of them felt very reassured.
"Wan'er, the windows outside have been reinforced, and the other areas should have been checked by the evacuees. Let's hurry back! The strong typhoon will be here soon."
"Um!"
The sky outside was already gloomy, and with the approaching typhoon, it became even darker.
They quickened their pace and entered the villa. Junjue noticed the lights were on. In the dim light, they scanned every corner of the villa, searching for any possible weak points.
Suddenly, a sound came from the second floor of the villa. Wan'er's body trembled violently. She clung tightly to Junjue's side, and they silently led the two dogs back to the small room.
Junjue stopped in front of the room's door. He gently turned the doorknob, and the door slowly opened. They entered the bedroom and saw dozens of people inside, each one filled with tension and fear.
A fierce wind began to blow, rattling the windows of the villa and causing the curtains to flutter wildly. Junjue walked to the window, drew the curtains, and locked the window tightly.
Wan'er stood to the side, gazing at the darkness outside the window, her heart growing even heavier.
"My Lord, what do you think we should do?" Wan'er's voice was filled with unease.
Junjue turned around, his eyes revealing determination and resolve. He said, "Wan'er, we can't just sit here and wait to die. If the typhoon really hits, we need to be prepared. I will do my best to protect you; we'll face this storm together."
A flicker of gratitude and dependence flashed in Wan'er's eyes as she gripped Junjue's hand tightly. They stood silently in the bedroom, waiting for the typhoon to arrive.
An hour later, the typhoon arrived with tremendous force. The wind howled, and the rain lashed against the windows with a piercing sound.
Junjue, Wan'er, the two dogs, and dozens of people stayed in the villa, listening to the roar of the typhoon and feeling the strong air currents seeping in through the cracks in the room.
Junjue held Wan'er's hand tightly, and they supported each other.
Suddenly, a loud crash came from outside the villa. Wan'er's face turned pale instantly. Junjue looked at Wan'er with concern and gently comforted her:
"Wan'er, don't be afraid, I'm here, you'll be alright."
"Roar roar roar~"
"Woof woof woof~"
Shortly after the two dogs finished barking, there was a loud bang as a heavy object crashed into the wall.
They rushed to the outer hall and saw that one wall of the villa had been destroyed by a gale of more than level 10, with debris scattered on the ground.
Seeing this, Junjue quickly called the dog to his side.
"Five blacks, daylilies, come and stay close to your master, lest you get blown away."
Upon hearing their owner's call, the two dogs quickly ran to their owner's feet and continued barking at the howling wind outside.
Animals are very sensitive to nature, especially when they detect danger, and will give early warnings.
"Ah... everyone run! The wall here has collapsed after being hit by something outside."
"It turns out that the huge stone pillar outside collapsed, causing the wall to crumble."
"Stop talking, the wind is so strong, if we don't leave now we'll be blown away."
After he finished speaking, the dozens of people in the room fled in panic, afraid that they would really be blown away.
"Wan'er, stay close to me! There are walls around here to block the way. Let's leave quickly before it gets too big."
Junjue, holding Wan'er's hand and having the two dogs follow, carefully circled around the crumbling wall and returned to the villa's main hall. Seeing everyone leave, he quickly locked the small door.
