Apocalypse: After Being Reborn, I Stocked Up on All Supplies Chapter 168: 168 Earthquake: High Altitude Escape

Chapter 168: Chapter 168 Earthquake: High Altitude Escape

Food was naturally the most precious commodity at the mont.

Jiang Yan moved her thoughts, and the sowhat shrivelled onions and sweet potatoes that had been in the living room were taken from the Space and thrown in.

The dehydrated vegetables, dried fruits, instant noodles, fried rice, and so table salt and chili powder that were not easily exposed but needed later, which Sun Jingtao and the others had brought, were also added.

Then there were so clothes that took up space but not weight, suitable for concealing items stored in the Space.

In just over ten seconds, she had quickly filled two bags.

It was very cold outside at the mont.

Once the speed of the assault boat picked up, the cold wind could tear one’s face apart.

Although her body had been enhanced by the Space and was very cold-resistant, she still took out a thick padding jacket to put on.

The padding jacket, bought in Maple Country, was not only cold-resistant and warm but also waterproof, and quite suitable for wearing during an escape at sea.

In less than a minute, Jiang Yan was ready.

As usual, shouldering her large backpack that concealed everything, Jiang Yan opened the door.

Ye Qing just happened to walk up to door 3202.

His sleeves rolled up, face flushed, and breathing heavily.

Apparently, transporting that rubber boat down from the 32nd floor was no easy task.

“Jiang Yan, is there nothing else?” he asked, glancing at the luggage bags beside Jiang Yan.

“Right, that’s all.”

“That’s good. Brother Tao and Sister Dai have also gathered a lot of supplies, so you don’t need to worry too much. Here, take this and protect it at your chest,” Ye Qing said, handing her a square pillow and bending down to pick up the two large luggage bags.

“We might experience an aftershock soon, so let’s try to hurry,” he instructed, then quickly headed toward room 3204 with the luggage bags.

Jiang Yan gave an “mmm” and hastened after him.

It was unclear whether it was due to the poor quality of the building or the earthquake being too strong.

The corridor had many cracks as wide as a thumb running from the skirting to the ceiling, which was extrely alarming to see.

There were also so tube lights dangling in midair.

A thick layer of white dust covered the ground.

The dust slled very pungent, prompting Jiang Yan to quickly put on her mask.

The two entered the house one after the other.

Su Dai’s house had ordinary glass, unlike Jiang Yan’s more earthquake-resistant house, and it was all shattered.

The floor was littered with piles of glass shards.

Two high-altitude escape ropes were secured to the window fras and an earthen stove.

The earthen stove also had many cracks.

For safety, a heavy stone table from inside the house had also been moved over as a final anchor point.

Sun Jingtao and Su Dai, both wearing cotton and linen gloves, were busily working by the living room’s floor-to-ceiling windows.

They too had their sleeves rolled up, faces flushed.

Sun Jingtao’s forehead glistened with tiny beads of sweat, and his arms showed exposed veins.

Not far beside him on the counter, a shotgun and a submachine gun were placed.

Jiang Yan glanced at them and instantly understood.

She knew that Song Qian had once worked officially, rumored to be Anming’s top sharpshooter.

He also looked very righteous.

However, these did not an anything.

As for Sun Jingtao and people like Song Qian, they were neither relatives nor friends, having only t on the first day.

Even though Sun Jingtao was previously in the special forces and naturally felt a bond with Song Qian and the young boat pilot, in this apocalyptic environnt with each serving their own camps, it was impossible not to be cautious.

Especially now, having moved all their belongings down.

With the guns placed beside them, they had a chance to retaliate if sothing happened.

“Jiang Yan,” Su Dai turned her head and saw Jiang Yan, a glimr of joy flashing in her eyes, “We’ve finished transporting our supplies, we’ll start with yours next.”

Their house still had many items.

However, the boat’s carrying capacity was limited, and with the uncertainty of when the aftershock might occur, they had prioritized transporting what was urgently needed.

Jiang Yan gave a nod and stepped forward to help.

Actually, she had a flying suit in her Space.

That thing was much more convenient and safer than what Sun Jingtao and the others were using.

But she lacked an appropriate reason to take it out.

In just a few words, her two luggage bags were already transported downstairs by Sun Jingtao.

Next were the people.

“I’ll go down first to set an example, the two of you in the middle, Brother Tao last,” Ye Qing and Sun Jingtao exchanged looks and decided.

Their arrangent had deeper considerations, but there was no need to explain further.

In the midst of talking, Ye Qing had already put on his specialized gloves and strapped the safety rope around his body.

From the 32nd floor to the 24th, an eight-floor distance, not quite 30 ters.

Neither far nor near.

Su Dai used to be a fitness coach, so her core stability was solid.

As for Jiang Yan, her recent “closed-door cultivation” in the Space was not for nothing.

Still, both were sowhat worried inside.

The rope, after all, was not obviously secured, and the boat itself was also wobbling.

Ye Qing, standing by, picked up the safety rope and quickly started to instruct:

“When you go down later, keep your legs slightly bent, push off the wall with both feet while extending your arms straight, slacken your hands slightly, and keep your eyes on the lower area as you slide down the escape rope. When you’re close to touching the cabin, rember to tighten the rope, flex your legs slightly, and land toes first.”

Ye Qing repeated worriedly, “Rember, bend your knees, toes first when you land.”

Jiang Yan and Su Dai, listening to his words, simultaneously gave a humming acknowledgnt and then helped Sun Jingtao secure another end of the rope.

Ye Qing swiftly slid down.

The safety belt was quickly sent up.

Accompanied by loud screams, Jiang Yan and Su Dai were quickly lowered.

With Ye Qing catching them below, the mont the two landed was indeed much safer.

“Hubby, be careful!” The last one down was Sun Jingtao.

There was no one above to secure him; he could only hope that the earthen stove and window fras were relatively stable.

Song Qian, watching the continuously fluctuating water, frowned slightly, “Not good, the aftershock is coming!”

He yelled upwards, “Brother Sun, co down quickly!”

Sun Jingtao pursed his lips without a word, strapped the gun on his back, buckled the safety rope around his body, then grabbed the escape rope and executed a free fall.

His movent was smooth and stylish, just like the professional rappels of special forces seen on television.

Recalling how he had hit the target with a Fish Shooting Gun last ti, Jiang Yan inwardly clicked her tongue:

This Sun Jingtao, he truly had so skills.

“Hubby, be careful!” Su Dai looked up, her heart nearly leaping out of her throat.

The mont Sun Jingtao landed, Ye Qing and Song Qian caught him, one on each side.

He was about to reach to retract the escape rope when he felt the assault boat begin to violently rock.

A flash of red light streaked across the sky.

“Boom!”

A loud explosion erupted from all around.

Tiny shards of glass and dust began to cascade down from the building.

The already rippling surface of the water suddenly turned tumultuous.
