Chapter 31 Men, Don’t Say You Can’t Do It
"I'll go check it out!"
Xiao Tang wants to go out to check the situation.
Several people were in the basement. If something fell from above and collapsed the ceiling, it would be a disaster if they were crushed underneath.
"No, I'll go."
Qiao Lan stopped Xiao Tang and zipped up his jacket.
"Sister Lan, let's go together."
"Come on, don't make trouble for me."
Qiao Lan opened the door and left.
Xiao Tang scratched his head.
Indeed, he did not have Qiao Lan's spatial ability and could not deal with large bricks and stones. If he went there, he would not be able to help and might even cause more trouble.
"I feel like I can't go on like this."
Staying in the safe house, Xiao Tang was depressed.
Xiao Li held the cat and said earnestly: "Men, you can't say you are not good enough."
"But men must face reality."
"What do you mean by reality?"
"...I can't help Sister Lan, and I can't help you either. Of the three of you, I seem to be the most useless."
Xiao Li frowned and thought seriously with his eyes blinking.
Nodding seriously, he said, "I think you can remove the word 'seemingly'."
Xiao Tang laughed dryly, his laughter uglier than crying: "I really am..."
"You really didn't hear that I was joking." Xiao Li was helpless.
Brother Tang is a little too serious.
She separated one of the two kittens and put it into Xiao Tang's arms.
"You are useful. Weren't you just helping Sister Lan with work? Besides, why do people have to be useful? If they are useless, they don't deserve to live. Look at these two kittens. They do nothing but eat and sleep. They are much more useless than you, but their sweet milk makes us happy. Brother Tang, you make Sister Lan happy, that's enough."
"Do I have it?"
"Yes, Sister Lan thinks highly of you."
Xiao Tang was silent.
The more Qiao Lan valued him and took care of him, the more guilty he felt in the face of disaster.
It was supposed to be him who protected Qiao Lan, wasn't it?
"Brother Tang, stop thinking about it. Didn't Sister Lan say that we might all mutate and have superpowers in the future? Maybe by then your superpowers will be stronger than Sister Lan's, and they will be very useful all of a sudden." Xiao Li comforted.
Xiao Tang's eyes lit up and hope ignited.
I wonder what kind of superpowers I will awaken in the future?
It would be great if I could be powerful enough to protect Qiao Lan!
clang.
Not long after, the door opened and Qiao Lan came back.
"Sister Lan, how is it outside?"
"Not very good, the wind is too strong, let's stay indoors!"
Qiao Lan shook off the dirt on his head and body.
I kept sighing: "The wind is so strong! So strong!"
She had experienced it once in her previous life, but she was still frightened when she saw the storm scene again.
As soon as she went out, she was dizzy because of the loud noises outside.
Woo woo woo!
Clang!
Buildings continued to collapse all around.
Various trees, advertising signs, and even cars and iron sheds on the ground were blown up by the wind, causing them to bump into each other and make loud noises.
The wind from all directions came in through the cracks in the ruins, howling, sometimes sharp as a ghost's cry, sometimes low as thunder.
She weighed over 140 pounds and was standing in the aisle, but was even staggered twice by the strong wind.
This is a two-story ruin!
You can imagine how strong the wind is outside.
She carefully checked the passage again and saw that the surrounding ruins and bricks were very solid. With her deliberate construction, the pieces of broken walls restrained each other like mortise and tenon joints, forming a whole that would not be blown away individually. Only then did she feel relieved.
Looking out through the cracks in the ruins, the city streets were filled with flying sand and rocks, and it was a chaotic mess.
The entire roof of the nearest building was blown off and fell on the ruins of the kindergarten.
It was the loud bang that Qiao Lan and the others heard in the basement.
Fortunately, the ruins were not collapsed.
Fortunately, we found this safe house in advance.
"Sister Lan, how long are we going to hide here?"
"Hide for seven days first."
As Qiao Lan remembered, this gust of wind lasted for a full seven days.
There will be a brief break in the wind after seven days, and then it will continue to blow for a few more days.
In just over ten days, the world was razed to the ground.
At this moment, all kinds of messages and news on the mobile phone are more shocking than each other.
The building collapsed here.
The dam there broke.
Someone died here.
Someone died there.
Last night's wind was still confined to the coastal provinces and cities, but real-time news from various places at this time showed that the wind disaster had spread to inland areas and was approaching deep into the northwest.
And not just in this country!
Wind disasters also occurred on several continents across the ocean.
Various self-media news exploded.
The latest news shows that some island countries surrounded by the ocean have lost contact with the entire country one after another. No communication has been received. No one knows what is happening there or whether the people in those countries are dead or alive.
The authorities are still calling on everyone to take shelter and wait for post-disaster rescue.
The reality will be, there is no need to wait for rescue, there is no more.
The world is suffering from disasters, everyone is a victim, who will save whom?
After sharing the upcoming situation with Xiao Tang and Xiao Li, Qiao Lan found that they were not too panicked.
But she was much calmer than when she first encountered a storm in her previous life.
If it weren't for Xiao Tang at that time, she would definitely not have been able to make it through on her own.
"Are you really not afraid?"
Xiao Tang said: "Don't be afraid! I'm waiting to awaken my special powers and protect you."
Xiao Li said, "Follow Sister Lan, I don't have to be afraid."
Sister Lan has stockpiled so much stuff and has such an amazing space, everyone will be fine.
Xiao Li secretly made up his mind not to cry so easily anymore. Losing roommates and classmates was certainly sad, but if the world really was going to be destroyed in the future, there would be many more tragedies.
She couldn't dwell on her grief and become a burden to Sister Lan and Brother Tang.
Even if she only knows how to feed cats, she has to feed them well!
"Come on, let's take it as a holiday here, eat, drink and have fun."
Seeing that his friend was in good condition, Qiao Lan took out a laptop from the space.
She picked it up when she returned to her apartment to pick up a supermarket delivery.
The computer contains many movies, TV shows and variety shows that she had downloaded before.
"Come, watch a movie, forget about the wind outside, and relax."
I randomly clicked on a movie, it was "Transformers 4", plugged in the speakers and played it.
A huge sound effect suddenly filled the basement.
Covering up the sound of wind and crashing outside.
The movie begins.
A ferocious dinosaur is hunting.
Its powerful jaws hold its prey in its grip and swing it around.
Qiao Lan explained, "Some of the mutant beasts we'll face in the future will be very powerful. While they're not dinosaurs, they'll be just as ferocious as this one. Once they grab you, your neck will be snapped in an instant."
Xiao Li swallowed hard, his palms sweating.
The movie continues with the dinosaurs running away.
In the sky, huge warships dropped bombs, the ground was engulfed in flames, and all lives were in ruins.
Qiao Lan continued explaining, "See? After the storm passes, not long after, there will be a nuclear war. Nuclear explosions will occur all over the world, mushroom clouds will rise, and everything will be wiped out. It will be even more terrifying than what is shown in the picture."
Xiao Tang burped loudly.
"Sister Lan, are you sure that watching a movie is to help us relax?"
Even more nervous!
"Sister Lan, how about we... talk about superpowers?"
