In the evening, Bant came to pick Chen Zhao up.
Bant drove a truck. It was a bit old, but Chen Zhao didn't mind.
"Chen, are you from China?"
"How do you know?"
"There used to be an immigrant in town. He's also called Chen."
"Oh, is he still in town?"
"No, he moved away, but he comes back to meet up with old friends sometimes."
Although they didn't interact much, Chen Zhao could tell that Bant was a carefree person. He seemed to be able to talk to anyone and didn't hide anything.
"Chen, what do you do?"
"I'm a doctor."
"Doctor. Good job."
In the eyes of Americans, doctors, lawyers, and university professors were the best jobs.
They had high incomes and were respected. In fact, Americans and Chinese had the same thoughts.
"Huh? Is there a factory over there? "Chen Zhao pointed into the distance. Thick smoke was rising from there.
"That's … Oh no, that's a winery. It's on fire. My son works there."
Bant turned the steering wheel and headed straight for the burning winery.
By now, it was already a mess outside the winery. The building had six floors and the fire was huge. The bottom four were all on fire. People outside couldn't enter at all.
There were people calling for help on the fifth and sixth floors, but because of the floors, no one jumped down.
They could only wait for the firefighters to arrive.
But at that moment, Walter, who was in the back of the car, suddenly jumped out of the car and rushed into the fire.
"Oh no, your dog ran in …"
Chen Zhao was stunned too. He didn't object to Walter saving people in the water, but this was a fire.
He glanced at Carrie. She was an ice demon. Her ice power could greatly suppress the fire.
However, he definitely couldn't use it in public. Chen Zhao gave Carrie a look and charged into the fire himself.
Carrie followed closely behind and rushed in. Bant was stunned. Rushing in with such a fire was simply courting death.
The bottom four floors were all on fire. The air vents all spewed out flames.
However, the owner and pet actually charged into the fire one after the other.
Just then, Walter actually used his mouth to drag a person out forcefully.
Bant and a few people outside saw this scene and immediately went forward to pour water on the injured person.
At this time, Bant and the others were looking at Walter with respect.
Walter looked a little disheveled. His originally shiny fur was now charred in some places.
But after Walter saved someone, he returned to the fire.
Chen Zhao wasn't in any danger. Carrie was right beside him. The flames couldn't get close to him.
In the flames, Chen Zhao saw someone shivering in the corner of a room.
Chen Zhao immediately went up to check. He was alive and unharmed, but he seemed to be in a semi-conscious state.
"Carrie, put your power on him."
Carrie immediately used the Power of Frost on the injured person in front of her. In this environment, not only would the Power of Frost not hurt him, it could even protect him.
By then, Walter had returned to Chen Zhao's side. Chen Zhao carried the injured person. "Walter, Carrie, continue searching for survivors. I'll carry him out. Carrie, give me some Power of Frost too."
Soon, Chen Zhao shivered and a thin layer of ice formed on his body. This could prevent him from being harmed by the surrounding heat.
Chen Zhao quickly charged out of the tunnel. The air here was too bad.
As soon as he left the fire, Bant and the others came over.
"Chen, you're too risky."
"He's still alive. Give me a bucket of water. I still want to go in."
"Chen, I know you want to save people, but this …"
"Hurry, my kids are still inside."
Chen Zhao was thinking that since he was already a hero, he might as well go all the way.
Moreover, saving people like this would definitely cost a lot of demonic crystals.
Chen Zhao couldn't be a hero, but Walter was definitely one.
Helpless, Bant picked up a bucket of water and poured it on himself. "I'll go in with you. My son is inside too."
"No, I'll go in alone. I can't take care of two people." Chen Zhao didn't want Carrie's ability to be exposed. "Wait for me outside and tell me what your son looks like. I'll bring him out."
"About your age. Short hair and a tattoo on his neck."
"Okay, I got it."
Chen Zhao poured a bucket of water on himself and charged into the fire.
A while later, Walter dragged another person out.
Just then, the firefighters finally arrived.
"Great, you're finally here. Can someone tell me what's going on?" The leader of the firefighters asked the people around him as he set up the water cannons. "Did you save those people?"
"No, Chen and his pet saved them. That's Chen's dog. It's a hero. It dragged two people out of the fire. Chen's still inside …" Bant was very nervous. He was worried for Chen Zhao and also for his son, who had yet to receive news from him.
Just as Bant was talking to the firefighters, Walter charged into the fire again.
The leader of the firefighters was dumbfounded. "It went in just like that? It's such a big fire. We can't even get close to the entrance with our fireproof suits … "
"Yes, so it's a hero. Both it and its owner are heroes."
A while later, another person came out. It was Chen Zhao, dragging an injured person out.
"Ken, Ken …" Bant exclaimed in surprise and joy when he saw the person Chen Zhao had dragged out.
Chen Zhao was also a bit exhausted. Moving around in the fire was too taxing on his energy.
"Do you have an oxygen mask? He inhaled too much smoke. Give him some water and then oxygen."
"Chen, thank you …"
"Let go. I still need to go in."
"Buddy, you did great. Leave the rest to us. You can't go in anymore. The fire is too big."
"No, my kids are still inside. I can't leave them in there."
"Then put this on. It can protect you." The leader gave Chen Zhao a fireproof suit.
"Okay." Chen Zhao didn't refuse. He put on the suit and the firefighters beside him poured some water on him.
The leader looked at Chen Zhao's back. "I like this guy."
As Bant gave his son first aid according to Chen Zhao's request, he also looked at Chen Zhao's back. "Me too. He saved my son."
A while later, Walter came out again and saved another person.
Then he went in again. The leader and his teammates were all dumbfounded.
Usually, animals were afraid of fire. Even the most obedient pets would run out when there was a fire.
They'd never seen a pet dive into a fire voluntarily.
"That guy went in again. He's so strong. He can even drag such a big person."
"I think he should belong to our fire department."
"No, he belongs to Mountain Town. He and his owner both belong to Mountain Town."
A few minutes later, Chen Zhao carried a person on his back and dragged another person with his hands. He'd already given his fireproof suit to the person on his back.
