Chapter 451 Cancellation of the Battle
Chapter 451 Cancellation of the Battle
Oh no, the people from Tingbai are here!
Anjiu turned on his toes and walked towards his grandmother.
"Go back to your original position and continue working!" The captain noticed her instantly and ordered in a stern tone, "Whatever happens outside has nothing to do with you!"
Anjiu paused for a moment and said okay.
The captain called his teammates over, and after whispering for a few words, the other party disappeared into the darkness. It seemed that he went to find the leader to ask for instructions on the next step.
If it were in the past, the sixth-class citizens might have been fooled by a few casual words, but now, everyone vaguely guessed that the people coming from outside might be Tingbai’s forces, and they couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
I secretly looked at the captain. His tough attitude seemed better than those drivers. I guess he would not make a decision that would make people feel uncomfortable...
Tingbai’s people will not go deep into here for the time being. They are safe for the time being. Just by looking up, they can see a large area of bright white light in the northwest corner.
——I guess there will be quite a few people coming.
The captain's eyebrows were twisted into a shape of a "川" from the moment he heard the roar of the engine.
A moment later, the teammate he assigned to go out to get information came back.
The two of them huddled together and talked in low voices so no one could hear them.
Everyone couldn't help but look back from time to time, wondering how the big leader would handle this matter.
Then, the captain called all the teammates and issued instructions and weapons.
Now everyone can feel relieved for a while.
The task of collecting supplies is still going on, but everyone's nerves are on edge.
As the sky turned pale, the team wearing Tingbai uniforms finally walked out from behind the ruins.
The two sides finally met each other.
The air seemed to freeze in an instant, and the tense atmosphere hung like a dark cloud.
The teammates let go of the stones they were holding and put their hands on the weapons at their waists, with sweat on their brows and cold, murderous eyes.
The biting cold morning breeze blew by, but it couldn't blow away the tense atmosphere.
Anjiu glanced at his grandmother implicitly, reminding her to hide in the shelter behind her if anything went wrong, and to enter the space only when no one was paying attention, and not to panic.
The captain of Tingbai lowered his gaze to the work area where they had worked all night. He looked at it for a moment, suddenly curled his lips, and continued to move forward with his men.
After seeing them completely disappear into the wreckage, everyone finally relaxed.
The captain looked at the direction they left thoughtfully, and signaled a teammate to follow them secretly.
Ting Bai clearly wanted to divide the city's resources with Qi Jiuqi. How could Qi Jiuqi be willing to yield to someone else in such a major matter?
The sun had just climbed a few centimeters when a large truck arrived, roaring louder than a thunderbolt.
The newly arrived team was equipped with a full set of equipment, and they walked through the streets and alleys that Ting Bai had walked through with pride and confidence.
When passing by Anjiu and the others, the captain recognized a few of them and greeted them happily.
An hour later, the roar of the engine exploded again.
The team that came to support Tingbai passed by them, and the captain's face darkened again.
"Rest here for five minutes, then head to the next target point!"
But the new target point he mentioned was only one street away from the Tingbai team next door.
The citizens on the 48th floor all wiped their sweat. Even though you are strong, you can't stand right under the other party's nose, right? !
Captain Ting Bai, who was sitting astride the stone, slowly stood up. When the eyes of the two captains met, it seemed as if flames burst out.
At this moment when the war was about to break out, Anjiu suddenly realized something was wrong——
The building behind the Tingbai team appeared like a phantom under the sunlight, and it began to disappear from the corners!
"My God!"
Surprised cries came from all around, and it seemed she was not the only one who had discovered the problem.
The two captains looked in that direction at the same time and frowned fiercely.
"Depend on!"
"here we go!"
They immediately stopped targeting each other and shouted at their teammates to quickly collect supplies.
A battle that had not yet been completed was canceled.
Both sides began to race against time to grab supplies.
High up, a bluestone pillar stabbing diagonally toward the sky seemed to be brushed by an invisible giant hand. Starting from the top, it gradually became blurred and dissipated into the air like a scattered dandelion.
Seeing this scene, An Jiu's heart was trembling. She murmured almost with a sigh: "I guessed right..."
Things from other worlds will really disappear. Her guess last night was confirmed at this moment.
Pu Huai approached her, his eyes looking deeply into the distance, "Don't forget to exchange all your contribution points for supplies when you go back. I have a feeling that high-level crystals are related to the abyss."
"understood."
This dissipation occurred simultaneously in various places in the ruined city. In just half a day, the diameter shrank by nearly fifty meters.
"It looks like we need to speed up," the captain said solemnly as he read the new information during the meal break. "The rate of disappearance doubles with each passing day. It's rare to come across a relatively intact city. We must collect more supplies and bring them back!"
So everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks, stood up and started working.
By the next night, they could no longer hold on after working for 36 hours straight. Their eye sockets were black and bloodshot, and they walked unsteadily.
The captain began to arrange for them to rest on the spot.
Anjiu found her grandmother and walked with her to a place sheltered from the wind. She wrapped her clothes tightly and lay down on the ground. Where no one could see her, she quietly took out a sleeping pillow and let her grandmother sleep first.
Grandma was going to refuse stubbornly at first, but as soon as her head touched him, her eyelids clenched heavily and she soon let out a long breath.
An Jiu was also very tired. She had also been injured in a car accident before. She was drowsy at the moment. She took out a few pills from the space and drank them with her back to people.
"Go to sleep, I'll watch over you."
Pu Huai had just returned from the ruins. His head, face, and clothes were all covered in gray and black. When he turned sideways to clean them, a white light passed through his handsome profile and fell on An Jiu's eyelids.
She closed her eyes as if she was blinded by the glare, but in the next second she forced them open a crack.
The scene before her eyes became blurry, and she stared drowsily at the sharp outline outlined by the light, suddenly hoping that he would return to his original size soon.
This is cute, but——
"What's wrong?" Pu Huai tilted his head slightly, catching her eyes that were a little slack behind her thick eyelashes, but she was stubborn and refused to fall asleep, "Aren't you tired?"
Anjiu felt like he was back in his eggshell, his whole body limp and he couldn't muster any strength.
She was actually thinking about sleeping with the pillow under her head after her grandma woke up, so that she could recover more efficiently. But for some reason, a circle of tiny bubbles gurgled in her heart.
Pu Huai slowly stopped wiping his face and walked towards her, meeting her gaze...
Put your hands over her eyelids.
"Go to sleep, I'll call you later."
