It was just that these families were all hiding behind the scenes. Ordinarypeople wouldn’t know the complicated network behind them. If it was made public, it would definitely surprise the everyday citizen.
Before the apocalypse, they had kept a low profile. After the social system had completely collapsed, they gradually showed signs of wanting to separate, just like more than a hundred years ago.
The Tan family, Zhan family, Jin family, Xing family, and Lu family were the main instigators of this event.
It was just that when faced with external enemies, they would band and fight together. For example, the You family that they had never taken seriously but had risen rapidly with no foundation.
Soon, the helicopter was filled with people and flew to a safe place.
Eighth thought of Zhan Chunhui’s importance. He gritted his teeth and fed him a bottle of blue medicinal liquid that he had bought from Tang Susu.
Originally, they had each carried a bottle with them in case something happened to their boss.
He didn’t know if it would be useful in Zhan Chunhui’s situation, but if he did nothing at this time, this direct descendant of the Zhan family would really be dead.
And the Zhan family was the only one among the families that the Metahuman Squad could actually communicate with!
He believed that if the boss was present, he would allow him to do so as well.
As for making the boss lose a bottle of “food”… He was sure that Tang Susu had more.
They would come together eventually, anyway.
He could get her more crystal cores if she had a problem with it either way.
However, just as Eighth was about to feed the bottle of medicine to Zhan Chunhui, Qing Mo said worriedly, “The tsunami is heading to Fengxi City…”
Monkey looked through the window at the city that had been flattened by the waves. There were ruins everywhere.
All kinds of corpses and debris floated in the water. The seawater surged so much that it was impossible to see beneath. It drowned the streets they used to take, the roads they used to drive on, and every place with their memories.
The boy, who had always been optimistic and cheerful, couldn’t help but cry.
“Our home’s gone…”
“It’s okay. As long as we’re alive, we can rebuild our home!” The class monitor clenched his fists and cheered the others.
The few young ones pulled themselves together and took turns taking care of Zhan Chunhui, whose injuries had obviously improved.
They were originally the favored grandchildren of their grandparents, but after the apocalypse, they grew up quickly. No matter how big the problem was, they would wipe their tears and continue to march forward.
Although the tsunami had suddenly struck and there was basically no way to escape, under the efforts of the Tang family and the Metahuman Squad, they had saved nearly 10,000 people in just a few minutes.
Most of them escaped on their own after hearing the radio. The Metahuman Squad also saved many people near the beach.
As for those that couldn’t be saved, although they felt sorry for them, they didn’t indulge in their sorrows. Instead, they immediately began a new round of rescue. They didn’t have the time to think about all of that.
About ten minutes ago, they were using the helicopter to take part in the rescue missions…
A helicopter that didn’t belong to them flew up from the roof of a building. At first, the helicopter was flying a little wobbly, but the pilot soon became familiar with it.
Originally, their family wanted to leave as soon as possible, but when they saw countless people crying for help below, they felt as if they had fallen into purgatory, especially those who brought the elderly and children. They couldn’t bear to do so.
The helicopter was neither big nor small. It could carry over ten people, and there were only six of them. It could still carry half of them.
“What should we do?”
“Save them!”
“We can’t…”
“Grandfather!?” The children and grandchildren couldn’t believe that their grandfather, who had always been kind and charitable, had actually refused. “We can’t save him. We can’t predict their intention!”
There were so many people. Those who saved them might be grateful to you, but those who didn’t would hate you instead. Their family had lived together for four generations, and they had lived in constant fear after the apocalypse. His great-granddaughter, who was still in her diapers, had even been stolen…
The old man thought of the tragic scene and closed his eyes in pain. “We can’t save them!”
The children and grandchildren were very obedient. Under the scolding of countless people below, they flew to a place that had not been submerged and met another group of people.
These people were obviously different from the others. They looked calmer and more prudent as they protected the person in the middle.
Just as they were about to fly over, those people hurriedly waved their weapons.
“Help! He’s a talent that the country urgently needs! He’s an academician of the European Academy of Sciences and a Nobel Prize winner. You don’t have to worry about us.. Just take him!”
