Chapter 168 - Leaving
Chapter 168: Leaving
“Let’s go!” After the people in the flying car were quickly in place, Teresa ordered the driver to start the car.
According to the satellite data, the Calamity Grade tornado monster would arrive in about three minutes. They had enough time to escape.
“Lucy, did you hear the order to evacuate everyone?” Zhou Chen asked Lucy who had already entered the flying car and was standing beside him. He wanted to know if the order to evacuate had been issued to all the residents.
“Yes,” Lucy nodded. “The radio suddenly broadcasted the evacuation order several times. I was wondering if someone was pulling a prank…”
“That’s good.”
Since the entire city had been informed, Zhou Chen felt that with Li Guofu’s cautious nature, he would definitely escape immediately.
While Zhou Chen was thinking, he suddenly felt the flying car shake violently, as if it had lost control.
“What’s going on?” Confused, he immediately looked around and realized that the reason the flying car was like this was because of the tornadoes outside!
“Ah! That monster is here!”
“Stop the car! Stop the car!”
“Hurry up and fly down!”
…
The flying car had completely lost control and began to fly diagonally upwards. The people in the flying car were in chaos.
“Don’t panic!” Teresa immediately used her superpower to stabilize the flying car and calm everyone down.
Zhou Chen was calm as he observed the situation outside to determine what was going on with these tornadoes that had suddenly appeared.
“At least ten tornadoes have appeared outside the city. From the looks of it, they seem to be natural tornadoes, but they have some aura of monsters. Could these be caused by the Calamity Grade monster that is approaching?” The current situation was too strange. So many tornadoes appeared out of nowhere, Zhou Chen could only make this association.
“Reporting! We are surrounded!”
While Zhou Chen was thinking, the flying car that had just stabilized encountered another situation. A tornado happened to circle around it.
The driver immediately let out a cry of despair. Teresa could no longer control the flying car. This large vehicle was unable to endure the destruction of the violent airflow around it. It crumbled apart in the blink of an eye, making the people inside fly into the sky like hot air balloons and be swept into the tornado.
The strength of these tornados was so great that before many people could shout, they were torn apart like the flying car.
“F*ck!” Zhou Chen was speechless. No one had expected that these tornadoes would hunt people like they had consciousness, not giving them a way out.
He immediately activated his Windrun skill to escape from the control of the violent airflow, but his strength was not enough. The Windrun could only slow down his speed of being swept away.
‘I hope it doesn’t bring me near that monster…’ Before he was sucked into the tornado, he thought to himself.
He knew that with the strength of his body, such a tornado could not do anything to him. The only fatal thing was if he were to be swept into the face of the Calamity Grade monster. If that happened, he did not dare to imagine the result.
After being sucked into the tornado, Zhou Chen quickly lost his vision. He could only rely on his perception to know that there were other things around him that had been swept away.
He felt like he had flown into the sky and crossed a long distance. Then, his surroundings suddenly opened up, and the tornado that had swept him up disappeared in the blink of an eye. He began to fall rapidly.
“Fortunately, there’s no sign of that monster.” Zhou Chen was glad that the worst situation he was worried about had not occurred.
“Captain! Help!”
At this moment, Zhou Chen heard a voice from above him. He looked up and saw that dozens of meters in the sky, Lucy was free-falling.
‘She was also swept here?’ Zhou Chen quickly approached with Windrun and grabbed her.
After catching Lucy, Zhou Chen maintained Windrun to reduce the speed of their descent.
Two seconds later, a few broken objects smashed at them from the sky, forcing him to dodge.
Looking at these falling objects that brushed past him, Zhou Chen realized that there were leaves, tires, glass, and a few human limbs among them.
“Lucy, your body is quite strong. There are only a few scratches on you,” Zhou Chen smiled at Lucy.
“Of course, Captain! Lucy’s body is the latest version! Moreover, Lucy was curling and protecting her head.” Lucy was no longer flustered. She turned to look at Zhou Chen and replied.
“Yes, very smart,” Zhou Chen nodded. Then, he increased the strength of the Windrun and began to quickly descend to the ground.
This process took a while. Zhou Chen and Lucy landed safely on a roof in the ruins of a city.
“Lucy, do you know where this is?” Zhou Chen looked around and asked Lucy.
“Reporting to Captain! Lucy knows!” Lucy raised her hand and pointed at an old building that looked like a television tower in the distance. “According to Lucy’s new information module, that is the landmark of the B145 pollution area! This should be the B145 pollution area!”
“B145 pollution area… Is it a moderate pollution area?”
“Yes,” Lucy nodded. “This is 80 kilometers west of Paradise City. It’s a moderate pollution area. The exploration team has been here before.”
“Okay, let’s continue west.” After knowing that this place was near Paradise City, Zhou Chen wanted to leave as soon as possible.
“No, Captain! There’s a severe pollution area about 40 kilometers to the west! It’s very dangerous!” Lucy immediately said.
“Then recommend a direction. Apart from the east.”
“South!” Lucy replied quickly.
“There is no severe pollution area within 300 kilometers of the south. It’s the safest.”
“Have you forgotten about that monster? It came from the southwest. Many places over there have definitely been contaminated.” Zhou Chen immediately shook his head.
“Looks like we can only go to the north. How’s the situation in the north?” He asked..
