Chapter 680: Chapter 548 Outburst_2
The Fake Creator·Swallower was rendered speechless by Su Mo’s words.
Su Mo then ran quickly towards the Tide Restaurant.
Not long after, Su Mo arrived at the Tide Restaurant ahead of others.
He looked around everywhere, seeing the streets filled with refugees running. It didn’t take him long to spot a familiar figure in the crowd, running towards him.
Su Mo waved and shouted at them.
Qian Chengxue, upon seeing Su Mo, relaxed her tense expression slightly, and after coming over, she reached out to grab Su Mo’s hand and said.
The moment Qian Chengxue took hold of his hand, Su Mo’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat, and he hastily spoke up.
“Where are we going?”
“Of course we’re going to my place to take refuge. My house is in the upper district, where the buildings are relatively sturdy. Let’s not talk about this now, we need to run. Even though the broadcast informed us that there is enough time, no one knows when disaster will strike,” Qian Chengxue said with urgency.
Wait, come with me, I have a better refuge area,” Su Mo said.
After saying this, without waiting for Qian Chengxue to react, he pulled her towards the GT department.
Qian Chengxue was taken aback, but even though she didn’t know where Su Mo was taking her, she still followed him instinctively.
Soon, Su Mo led Qian Chengxue to the GT department and ran towards the G3 area.
The entire GT department was blaring with shrill alarm sounds.
“Attention to all department personnel, due to an imminent White Hole outbreak, to prevent the worst-case scenario, everyone is to enter emergency evacuation status. The GT department will initiate lockdown mode in one hour, shutting down protective doors in each area. Those without special permissions will not be able to pass after this time, so please ensure you enter the designated evacuation areas before the lockdown begins.”
At this time, everywhere were people hurrying to evacuate, but unlike the residential areas, there was not a hint of chaos here, and the evacuation process was very orderly.
“Su Mo, you’re going to G3 area?” Qian Chengxue asked, utterly astonished, looking in the direction they were running.
“Yes,” Su Mo affirmed.
“But we don’t have a combat mission, and isn’t it full evacuation right now?” Qian Chengxue was puzzled.
“Shh, don’t worry about anything, just follow me,” Su Mo turned his head and made a shushing gesture to Qian Chengxue.
Seeing Su Mo say this, Qian Chengxue didn’t say anything more. She believed that Su Mo would not let her down.
They quickly arrived at the entrance to the G3 area.
There were still soldiers standing guard here. The leading captain was also surprised when he saw Qian Chengxue and Su Mo running over.
“Officer, this area is about to be sealed. In a little while, we’ll also have to leave,” the captain said.
“We know, we have something to take care of; you don’t need to worry about us,” Su Mo bluffed.
“Alright, officer, be mindful of the evacuation time,” after some hesitation, the leading captain nodded in agreement, after all, both Su Mo and Qian Chengxue had access rights to the G3 area.
“Thank you,” Su Mo said, pulling Qian Chengxue to run further in.
Upon entering the G3 area, they saw rows of neatly standing fourth-generation Biological Mechas, with numerous restraint shackles securing the machines. All maintenance operations had come to a halt, leaving the vast hangar empty, with hardly a soul in sight.
Su Mo, dragging Qian Chengxue along, dashed to the front of the massive Gluttonous Mecha rather quickly.
Compared to when it had first been brought in, many parts of the Gluttonous Mecha had been repaired and didn’t look as pitiful.
This showed how concerned the upper echelons were about Su Mo’s situation.
Keep in mind that other fourth-generation Biological Mechas had started repairs earlier than Gluttonous Mecha and still hadn’t been fixed as quickly.
“Let’s get on; the Gluttonous Mecha is safer than anywhere else,” Su Mo told Qian Chengxue.
Qian Chengxue, somewhat dumbfounded, replied, “But this isn’t proper. Without combat orders, we are not allowed to activate a fourth-generation Biological Mecha at will. It goes against the rules and laws.”
“Trust me, it’s okay. We can sneak on without activating the mecha. Besides, this mecha is mine; getting on my own mecha isn’t against the rules,” Su Mo confidently explained to Qian Chengxue.
“Alright!” Qian Chengxue was not a rigid person either.
Su Mo and Qian Chengxue climbed up agilely, and when they got to the chest area, Su Mo reached for the concealed emergency switch to initiate the opening of the Biological Cabin.
The Gluttonous Mecha’s biological cabin automatically popped open and unlocked.
Su Mo, pulling Qian Chengxue’s hand, crawled into the biological cabin. After entering, Su Mo found the built-in switch, and he proceeded to close the biological cabin back up.
After all this, Su Mo let out a sigh of relief, finally having sorted things out.
However, as they relaxed, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue inadvertently looked into each other’s eyes.
For a moment, they both felt a bit uneased and subconsciously averted their gaze.
But the biological cabin was so small that they were very close together, close enough to hear each other’s breathing.
To ease the awkwardness, Qian Chengxue lowered her head and deliberately found a topic to chat with Su Mo.
“Su Mo, do you think we’ll be able to survive this crisis?”
“Don’t worry, it’ll be fine. Even if we truly can’t withstand it, I am here. I will stand in front of you and block it for you,” Su Mo replied sincerely. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel★fire.net
“Mhmm,” Qian Chengxue affirmed strongly after hearing his response.
Inside the Black Brilliance Command Room, Li Ruiqi looked at the progress bar of personnel rallying, clenching his fists involuntarily, his palms sweaty.
Now, more than four hours had passed of the designated five hours, with the remaining countdown less than thirty minutes.
