Xiao Lin and Xia He stood to the side, their brows furrowed. Dr. Qian said, "You two can't be of much help here. Go and do what you need to do. I'll keep an eye on things here, nothing will happen."
Xiao Lin and Xia He nodded and walked out of the medical station. Xia He said, "Although I haven't had much contact with Granny Li, it's really heartbreaking to see her like this."
Xiao Lin said, "Since Professor Wang arrived, he has made many contributions to the base, and now..."
At that moment, Haidong rushed over and said, "Boss! We just got through to Professor Wang and his group via satellite phone. They're trapped in a building!"
Xiao Lin and Xia He exchanged a glance, and Xiao Lin asked, "Do you know exactly where it is?"
"We only know the general direction of Haidong, not the exact location."
Xiao Lin said, "Knowing the general location is enough. Get the men together, ask Dr. Fu for some equipment, and then set off for the rescue."
Xia He looked at Xiao Lin and said, "I'll go too."
Xiao Lin said, "No, it's too dangerous outside right now!"
Xia He said, "I have weapons and equipment."
As he spoke, he took out a protective suit that protects against acid rain from his spatial storage. "I have many more protective suits that protect against acid rain."
Xiao Lin looked at Xia He and sighed, "Alright, but be careful in everything you do."
Xia He followed Xiao Lin to Xiao Lin's office and took out several large boxes of acid rain protective suits from her spatial storage. "These protective suits still look too thin, so for safety, everyone should wear at least three."
Xiao Lin nodded in agreement, then took out three protective suits from the box and put them on.
Xia He also put on a protective suit.
"This trip will require walking because the acid rain is too corrosive; vehicles cannot be driven out."
Xia He nodded to indicate that she understood.
Hai Dong and his group of 10 were ready. Xiao Lin had already told Dr. Fu to prepare some equipment to prevent acid rain, so Hai Dong and his group brought the equipment to find Xiao Lin.
Just as Xia He and Xiao Lin finished putting on their protective suits, Hai Dong and his group arrived. Hai Dong told Xiao Lin that the outside temperature hadn't dropped yet, so they still needed to wear thermal underwear underneath. Xiao Lin and Xia He, having cultivated spiritual power, were no longer afraid of the scorching heat outside, so they told Hai Dong that they had already put them on, and Hai Dong didn't suspect anything.
They took several large boxes of protective suits and led people to the next room, where they put on a thermostatic garment inside and three protective suits on the outside.
The protective suit covers the feet as well, so there's no need for special shoe covers, which also avoids the risk of leaks.
The equipment Dr. Fu provided was a huge cloak with an umbrella-shaped hat on top. Underneath the hat was a thick layer of fabric that could wrap a person up under the umbrella. Under the cloak, one could carry a bag or supplies without fear of acid rain corrosion, and movement was very convenient. The cloak also had a small transparent viewing frame designed in front of the face, solving the problem of visibility.
The group of 14 people, each carrying a backpack containing protective suits and cloaks, set off. Professor Wang had brought 9 people with him, making a total of 10. The current casualty situation is still unclear. The satellite phone signal was not good due to acid rain, and they could only determine Professor Wang's approximate location. After that, the satellite phone could not be connected.
Fortunately, Professor Wang was not too far from the fortress; it was about an hour's walk from there.
After getting ready, the group left the base.
