The ground only trembled slightly before it began to shake violently! Trees and houses swayed as if they were floating on water. People could not even stand properly. It was a terrible feeling, as if the earth's crust was being ravaged by a rapist without any foreplay.
One could even see an old man who was enjoying the morning sun and fresh air on his balcony. Because of the violent tremor, he directly fell over the balcony railing and landed heavily on the ground below. Several people who were riding bicycles also fell down one after another. The screams of the surrounding cars due to the violent tremors were mixed with the heart-wrenching screams that shook people's nerves.
It was ironic that the official on the TV (Governor Swasinghe) was actually releasing the official news that the active period of the earthquake had passed before the earthquake happened. No wonder people mocked him for only knowing how to read lines.
The worst thing was that Kate, her son and daughter were still packing their luggage in the house!
"What the hell!" "Reef, you go save them. I'll start the car and get ready to run. Sanzi, tell Kulutego to stay alert. Our lives are most likely going to be in his hands soon." Sheyan roared and immediately gave out an order.
"What about me?" Zi was obviously dissatisfied with being ignored.
"Pray that bastard Bind has really been kicked out of this world! Of course, if you don't mind, you can give me a kiss to wake me up, "said Sheyan with a shrug.
Zi blushed and glared at Sheyan fiercely. She immediately put on a stern face and said, "I don't mind.
I don't mind. "
Sheyan completely ignored the shaking of the earth. He rushed to the car that was driving towards them and started the engine. This was a domineering, even wild, car that they had carefully selected before coming here! It was a pure white, six-wheeled Hummer H6! (Picture attached on Weibo)
The car could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.6 seconds and reach a top speed of over 200 km/h. The 6.0-litre V8OHV 32-valve petrol engine provided it with amazing power. Compared to it, the regular 2.0-litre and 3.0-litre engines of ordinary off-road vehicles were nothing.
Of course, the only drawback of this four-ton thing was that it consumed an astonishing amount of fuel. It was almost like drinking oil like drinking water. To use a more intuitive analogy, the H6's fuel consumption in the city was almost ten times that of the more common 0.8 displacement QQ … Fortunately, the H6 also had a dual fuel tank configuration, which could hold 240 liters of fuel after refueling once. It was not a problem for it to run 700 to 800 kilometers. Otherwise, it would have to refuel after a few dozen kilometers.
By now, Reef had already rushed into Gordon's house. The whole bungalow felt like there were several transparent monsters crazily squeezing from all directions. He kicked open the door. Everything in his line of sight was strangely distorted, trembling, and dust rustling down. At this time, there was still sunlight shining through the distorted gaps!
At this moment, the tinkling sounds of porcelain shattering could be heard. However, what worried Reef the most was the clear creaking sounds of the wood supporting the house. Obviously, under the might of the earthquake, this house probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
The cries of the children upstairs had successfully provided Reef with a direction of advancement. He rushed up the stairs and covered his head with his hands. Within a short distance, at least two chandeliers had fallen down, smashing his body with glass. However, it didn't cause any damage to Reef's iron-like body. Just as he was about to reach the second floor, a wardrobe that had been violently flung out smashed into his face. Reef clenched his fists and swept his elbow across!
With a crack, the wardrobe shattered into pieces. The underwear and dust inside flew everywhere, but they could not stop Reef's advance at all! As soon as he reached the second floor, he saw Kate and the two children hugging each other under the dining table, trembling in fear.
"Let's go!" Reef's voice was hoarse, but his voice was calm.
Kate screamed in horror.
"But the experts said it's safer to be under the table during an earthquake!"
As Reef was about to speak, he suddenly heard an extremely clear and shrill crack from the roof beam. The entire bungalow was on the verge of collapsing in a matter of seconds. At this moment, he couldn't be bothered to explain. He immediately bent down and rushed over. With a knee, he sent the dining table flying. With his left hand clamping Kate, and his right hand clamping the two frightened children, he directly broke through the window and leapt out!
Less than two seconds after he leaped out, the walls of the bungalow finally collapsed under the terrifying pressure. The entire building was destroyed as if it had been ruthlessly pressed down by an invisible giant palm out of thin air, stirring up smoke and dust all over the sky.
A sharp glint flashed across Sheyan's eyes. He clearly saw a sharp steel bar shoot out during the collapse of the house, aiming at Lily's back. He did not know if it was a coincidence or an accident.
"Such a direct attack … it shouldn't be Bind," Sheyan thought. As such a thought flashed through his mind, Zi, who was standing beside him, lightly flicked her finger. A sharp force transformed into a needle and struck the steel bar from the side, sending it flying. After Reef landed on the ground, he did a roll and ran over with the three children in tow.
Sheyan opened the car door and dragged the anxious Gordon to the front passenger seat. He then stepped on the accelerator, while Zi opened the trunk door and reached out, ready to pick him up. Amidst the rumbling of the ground, a large number of clear cracks had begun to appear on the road dozens of meters behind Reef, and they were extending in this direction.
The powerful V8 engine began to roar powerfully. Reef threw the two children and Kate, who were already dizzy, directly into the rear of the H6. Zi easily caught the three of them and put them on the sofa. Although the speed of the H6 had increased to more than 60 km/h, Reef still jumped into the car with ease.
The most amazing modification of the H6 must be introduced here. The front and back rows of the H6 could already accommodate five adults, and the extended space at the rear was renovated into a luxurious small bar. It had everything from lights, sound systems, a TV and a refrigerator. The luxurious leather sofa in the corner could seat five people. The back was wide and comfortable. (Picture attached)
On the compartment opposite the sofa, a wall-mounted 15-inch screen was connected to the DVD player in the front row. Together with the shocking sound effects from 10 speakers, it could form a mobile private cinema. There were two built-in refrigerators on the walnut-decorated bar counter next to it. The cup holder on the bar counter could hold 10 wine glasses firmly. The roof and the periphery of the car were covered with chrome-plated metal, and the side was inlaid with color-changing lights.
By the time Kate recovered from her shock, she had already been placed on the sofa next to the car. Zi fastened her seat belt for her and poured her a glass of vodka to calm her down. At this time, the car was still shaking due to the earthquake. The small bungalows on both sides of the road could not withstand the fury of nature and were destroyed one after another. A large number of cracks appeared on the walls, and they collapsed one by one. There were even billowing smoke and flames.
What was even more terrifying was that a large number of cracks and pits appeared on the road behind them. They were collapsing like dominoes, as if something was chasing after them from behind! A large number of vehicles parked on the roadside were swallowed by the rolling sinkholes! The trees collapsed one after another, disappearing into the newly formed deep ravines.
"Can you go any faster?!" Zi shouted to the front. "The collapse and sinkhole behind us are only two seconds away from us! I really don't feel safe right now! "
Sheyan shrugged and stepped hard on the accelerator again. The roar of the Hummer H6's engine suddenly became louder. The wide off-road tires played a huge role at this time. The car began to speed up on the road, trying to avoid the collapse behind them.
The speed indicator began to slowly but firmly rise: 90 km/h, 100 km/h, 120 km/h, 150 km/h! At this time, in everyone's eyes and senses, the whole world seemed to be shaking violently!!
Kate and Gordon were muttering God's name under their breaths. Apart from this matter, their thoughts seemed to have been temporarily frozen.
At this time, the thing that Sheyan and the others were most worried about happened — — a traffic jam! After entering a main road, cars started to appear in front of them. The people driving these cars were obviously ruled by fear and did not realize the huge crisis coming from behind!
"Now is not the time to follow bullshit traffic rules!" Sheyan gritted his teeth and said, "Gentlemen, hold on tight. There's going to be a violent collision!"
Just as his voice faded, a loud bang could be heard from the front. Sheyan had already fiercely swerved the steering wheel, slamming into the rear of a Toyota Corolla in front, causing it to fly out in a slanted manner. If they let the car continue to block their way, they would most likely have to say goodbye to the abyss in a few seconds.
This was the time for the Hummer H6 to show its tyrannical power. With a weight of more than four tons, a structure of high-strength alloy steel, and an acceleration of nearly 150 km/h, to be honest, as long as it was not a large cargo truck, ordinary vehicles would be no match for it!
