Chapter 486 Natural disasters come. Humans were too weak to withstand them.
There was no way for them to fight against the cruel nature.
The air was mixed with a smell of rottenness, and the unpleasant smell was disgusting.
A strong stench came. Perhaps it came from the ground or caused by the death of those domestic animals.
The earth kept shaking and a house instantly became dust.
The surrounding mountains began to roar and huge rocks rolled down.
They were relentlessly rolling towards the crowd that were escaping. It lasted only a few minutes and the town was razed to the ground.
The earth shook and the mountains shook, and in a moment, houses collapsed and roads cracked.
A prosperous town turned into ruins.
It was all like a nightmare. All houses were reduced to rubble.
The falling boulders from the collapsed houses and the pouring rain destroy so many lives in this town.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChildren lost their parents and parents lost their children.
There was no more home. Only the pain of sorrow that filled the air.
Time seemed to freeze at that moment. There were cries mixed with howls.
Some turned into psychos. Some were begging God. They just hated they couldn't run faster.
The sudden onset of the disaster, a strong earthquake, took away everything here.
With the lightning and thunder, mountains fell and the earth cracked. Everything was over.
This disaster had left countless people homeless, and had also made those kids cherished by their parents become orphans, taking away the bright smiles from their faces.
Sylvia led the medical staff from Lilypad General Hospital to the southwest town. When they arrived, they saw a few hundred villagers remaining on top of the nearest hill.
Everywhere was a rubble. Everywhere was a panic crowd. Everywhere were miserable scenes.
Not only did the southwest town suffer heavy losses, but all the towns near the southwest town were destroyed hard. The entire city suffered great losses.
And almost the entire southwest town was reduced to a rubble.
Several cities adjacent to the southwest city had sent troops over to support them. Those government employees, and some: volunteers had also arrived on the scene.
Each was clad in a raincoat and saving people in the pouring rain.
In front of natural disasters, humans were weak like ants.
Maybe before the earthquake, they were still watching TV, eating, and talking with their families or friends ... But after the earthquake, it became silent.
"Take down all the medical supplies," Sylvia said to everyone behind her, she was dressed in white, put on her raincoat and rushed off the plane, "The strong ones go with me to save the villagers buried inside the rubble, the girls all stay here to treat the injured villagers." After she finished, she tugged directly at a man closest to her, "Sir, may | ask which one is the supreme commander here?" "Oh, | heard that a mayor was sent over. It seems that his last name is Wright ..." The man was covered in mud and it was impossible to tell what he looked like. "There he is! You go to the west and you'll see him." Sylvia nodded and stepped on the muddy water towards the west.
Could it be Mayor Cody? She thought so. A few minutes later, she saw the middle-aged man cloaked in a raincoat. The man's elegant face was now pale in the night. The rain streamed along the edge of the raincoat and wet his face.
"Cody!" Sylvia called out loudly. Mayor Cody turned his head. He saw Sylvia's slender figure. His face was frozen, "Sylvia, it's dangerous here .." "It's okay." Sylvia shook her head, "We brought medical staff, and some medical supplies, and we are moving them. Where should we put them?" "The villagers are hiding on the hillside, near the hillside there is a bomb shelter left over from the former war period. It's very old, but it's still dry. Put the supplies in there, I'll have Brayden take you there." Mayor Cody hurriedly said to Brayden, who was digging with a shovel not far away to rescue the victims, "Brayden, take Sylvia to put the supplies!" Brayden wiped the mud from his face and trotted towards Sylvia.
Just after the two left, Franklin's plane arrived.
He brought a plane full of Maskelyne Group volunteers and some food and drink.
Maskelyne Group and SouthStar Airlines spent longer time in calling upon the volunteers than the hospital because the group was larger.
So Franklin was a little bit later.
Sylvia was carrying medical supplies with everyone else. She listened to the heavy rain in her ears, looked at the dark and dreary sky.
Suddenly, a thunderclap and a lightning bolt then split the night sky.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmImmediately afterwards, there was another shaking of the earth and mountains.
Many people dropped their boxes of supplies and fled in all directions with shouts.
The terrified people were like birds of prey, screaming and holding their heads as they tried to run for their lives.
Facing natural disasters, the human beings were so fragile. None of them wanted to die.
Sylvia barely managed to steady herself as she called out urgently, "Don't panic. Don't be afraid! Protect yourself! The supplies are not important. You must protect yourself." Just then, suddenly, a mellow male voice rang out in the clattering night rain with a soothing effect, "This is an aftershock. We must be united and unified in order to overcome it! It's not scary when a disaster comes. What's scary is that we don't have the courage to overcome it! Now, everyone, hold the supplies in your arms and continue to place them in a neat and orderly manner.” Sylvia, after hearing the familiar voice, she looked back in surprise and saw a tall figure striding towards her in the night.
Franklin ? He was here? The man stretched out his long, strong arm and snatched the large box she was holding in her arms away.
Those dark, bright eyes seemed like the only stars in the dark night.
"Honey, let me help you." Franklin looked at the mud splattered on her face and couldn't help but feel the pain in his heart.
His husky and mellow voice said, "You take care of here and go see how the injured villagers are doing." Sylvia nodded hard, "OK." The two had no more talk. After a brief conversation, they parted again.
Sylvia made her way quickly to the makeshift medical shed.
Her colleagues were there trying hard to treat all the injured villagers who were carried over.
The air was thick with the smell of blood, accompanied by the painful wails of the villagers.
"Blood, Dr. Andrews, we need blood, and the blood packets we brought are simply not enough. These villagers are all too badly injured, especially many needing amputations. Their bodies have been pressed heavily by the rubble for so long that their bones are shattered and their limbs can no longer remain." An orthopedic doctor rushed to Sylvia's face, his hand holding a blood packet that the nurse had just handed him.
"And our medical conditions here are so poor that there is no way to do this kind of surgery." The doctor was so anxious that he was about to cry.
Sylvia frowned, "I'm contacting a hospital in a neighboring city and arranging for a helicopter to take the seriously injured villagers there."
