Starting From Zero

Volume 20, Chapter 16 Ruins Search and Rescue

"Lead the way, Captain, isn't that what we are here for?"

"Okay general, please come with me."

Under the leadership of the captain, we quickly passed through the small playground in front of the garrison, and then bypassed the building in the center of the garrison to reach an area at the side and rear. There are still two three-story apartment buildings standing here, and in the middle of the two buildings is a three-story apartment of the same specifications. But the difference from the other two is that one side of it has completely collapsed, and the other one has completely collapsed. The entire first floor on the side also collapsed, and the second and third floors above turned into a diamond-shaped structure leaning against the middle floor. All the glass windows on it had burst, and many windows had varying degrees of damage. It is deformed, but the overall structure of the building does not seem to have changed much.

We were a little surprised when we saw the miserable state of this building. I heard from the captain that one side of the floor collapsed. I thought it was just a small corner, but now it seems that the entire building has actually collapsed.

"Is this what you call one side collapsed?" Ling couldn't help but ask after seeing this building.

The captain said helplessly: "Originally, only one side collapsed, but just an hour before you arrived, the first floor on the other side also collapsed. Fortunately, the rescuers were concentrated on the other side at that time, otherwise the people who were buried would definitely still be there. Want more!”

I nodded and said to the ring knights: "Come over and help, see if anyone is still alive." As I said that, I started to run towards the ruins over there.

Although the news of our arrival attracted many people, the rescue team here did not move at all. There were still dozens of people cleaning up the ruins, just because they were not professional search and rescue personnel and did not have suitable cleaning equipment. So the efficiency is actually very bad.

Seeing our arrival, the commander here immediately asked some people to withdraw from the cleanup work. After all, the ruins are so big that no matter how many people go up to search together, and if too many people go up to the ruins, it may cause a secondary collapse due to the weight of the human body, so the cleanup crew can only go up one by one and wait to go up first. Replace people when they are tired.

The captain who brought us here said something to the person in charge here, and we walked directly to the ruins. After turning on visual enhancement and infrared thermal scanning, the ruins looked like a huge glass brick to us. We could clearly see See everything inside, especially humans with body heat.

The infrared signals received by our eyes are transmitted to the electronic brain, which then filters out the high temperatures caused by low-temperature objects and flames, leaving only targets that are within five degrees of the human body temperature. After such a screening, there are not many things left. Combined with the analysis of the shape of the signal source, it is clear at a glance which one is the person and which one is the unrelated object.

After seeing the situation clearly, we immediately rushed to the ruins, and then Ling and Yeyue first ran to a few soldiers who were digging. Ling directly stretched out his hand to fend them off, and then used his left hand to hold a cement board stretched out in front of him with his left hand and lifted it up while they looked at them in surprise. He only heard a bang, and the cement board was accompanied by a large piece of wood on it. All the bricks and stones were lifted up at once, and there were still three soldiers standing on top of the lifted ruins.

After being stunned for a few seconds, the soldiers hurriedly jumped down from the ruins, while Ling continued to lift the cement board upwards with one hand, then ducked in and grabbed a piece with his right hand that was as big as two microwave ovens. The large concrete block was pulled out and thrown into the open space behind.

After Ling pulled out the concrete block, Yeyue immediately ducked in, while Ling put his right hand against the cement board to prop it up. Yeyue took advantage of the opportunity of the expansion of the space and quickly got into the depths of the space in a semi-crouching position. Then she grabbed the three rebars lying in front of her and directly twisted them and bent them so that they were close to the gravel on both sides of the space. , then she quickly drilled through this area and smashed a leaning concrete beam in front of her with one punch, throwing the rubble backwards. After taking out the space, she pounced forward and lay on the ground to drill forward. through space.

After passing through this space, a small triangular area appeared in front. This place should have been the corner of a toilet, and a curled up body was held here.

Yeyue quickly scanned the survivor's body with the sensor system of her eyes, and after confirming that he was not pressed anywhere, she grabbed his shoulders and dragged him back. In less than five seconds, she He pulled this person under him. However, just when she was about to take the man out, there was a sudden bang from behind, and then a pile of rubble collapsed directly, completely covering up the light coming from the outside.

"Damn it!" The soldiers outside had been squatting outside to observe the situation. When they saw Ye Yue pulling the man under her, they were still glad that they finally rescued someone, but they didn't expect that their hope was shattered in the blink of an eye. . The cement board that Ling was holding up broke at a critical moment, so that the collapsed stone sealed the hoped-for passage again. However, just when everyone was feeling depressed, regretful, and grieving, there was a sudden bang from the ruins in front of them. A large hole was opened in the ruins, and the rubble flew up. After five or six meters, it fell back to the ground with a clatter. The other rescuers were frightened and quickly jumped off the rubble to avoid the scope of the rockfall.

Just when those people turned to look here after avoiding the falling rocks, they saw a man wearing ancient armor jumping out of the big hole that exploded, holding a man covered in dust. That's right, it didn't crawl out, it jumped out. The opponent's hands were holding a person, so he couldn't climb up at all. The person jumped up directly. Although there is only a height difference of more than two meters between the bottom of the ruins and the top of the ruins, the problem is that there are not many people in the world who can jump over this height with bare hands, not to mention that this person is not only wearing a suit of armor, but also holding someone in his hand. What's more important is that looking at this person's appearance, it seems that it is easy to jump up.

The reality is actually pretty much what these people think. With the strength of our dragon clan, let alone a person, we can still jump up to six floors even if we carry a heavy motorcycle in one hand. Carrying someone and jumping two meters high is not much more difficult for us than ordinary people jumping over a mobile phone on the ground.

Just when Yeyue put the rescued man on the stretcher that had been waiting for a long time, I had already jumped to the edge of a ruin. We reached out and grabbed a steel bar that stuck out of the cement, and then waited until Scott on the opposite side also grabbed the other end. The two of us worked hard together, and directly lifted up the floor to connect this piece of floor to the gravel above. It was lifted like a quilt. Without the pile of ruins above, the space below immediately became much cleaner. Scott and I jumped in together and started to grab the gravel on the ground with our bare hands and throw it back. Because we were faster, people around us felt that we were just two mice digging holes. They saw the gravel behind us. Smoke and dust filled the sky, and we soon dug two large pits. During this period, the steel bars blocking the road were directly twisted, and some cement beams that were in the way were also directly broken and thrown out. Finally, when two of us came out of the pit holding a human body that had turned into cement, there was a cheer outside.

After we pulled these two people out of the ruins, Jingjing and Lingling worked together to dig out three more people from under the ruins. However, after digging out these three people, we all evacuated outside the ruins.

The soldiers and civilians who saw us rescuing six people alive in just a few minutes thought we would continue to rescue people. Unexpectedly, we all evacuated the ruins after the six people came out. A British man in a suit with only a vest on his upper body immediately shouted to us: "Why did you stop? There are still people who haven't been rescued!" While shouting, he rushed to us and grabbed my arm and shouted: " Please save people quickly! There are still people who haven't come out yet! My Alice is still down there!"

After supporting the obviously out-of-control British man and pulling him off me, I replied in as gentle a tone as possible: "Sorry, our equipment has an infrared device that can see human body temperature. There is no one close to him in the ruins." Human body temperature is something. So..."

"No, you are lying. There must be something wrong with your equipment. Please help, my Alice, she is still down there! Help..."

The guy yelled and suddenly went limp. I supported him directly, and then said to the soldier next to him: "He fainted. Take him down to rest." Just now, I actually used electromagnetic pulse to shock this guy. The guy's nervous system caused his brain to overload and enter a protective stupor. After all, with his current mood, it was difficult to explain things clearly to him. It would be better to let him faint. Waking up would somewhat ease his mood. .

"Um..." After the man was carried away, the officer next to him asked: "Is there really no one left alive?"

I nodded firmly and said: "If you think it is necessary, I can ask my men to help you dig up the entire ruins, but I must say it first. Even if you dig up the ruins, you will only see a pile of scars. Even corpses that have turned into rotten flesh will do no good except increase the sadness of others. So..."

"Okay, I understand. Anyway, thank you and your men for your help. I just want to thank you for your help on behalf of the British Empire."

"Speaking of help..." I looked at the surrounding environment and asked, "Do you have a translator here who is familiar with the local dialect?"

The officer was obviously stunned for a moment, but he quickly responded and nodded: "Yes, yes. But the other party is you Chinese, I think you'd better coordinate with them yourself. But I can take you there. .”

I didn't express any surprise at the officer's answer, I just said politely: "Thank you then." Ro! .
