…
Mo Fan returned to the second floor. The demon leeches were obviously scared. They did not climb any higher. Mo Fan walked to the bridge that was connected to another plaza. He saw a tunnel full of wriggling demon leeches. It looked like he was standing in the throat of a black monster. He could not look at it directly.
Mo Fan let out a sigh. He was afraid no one would be able to escape from the tunnel under such circumstances.
Mo Fan glanced at the position where the demon leeches were crawling toward him. He locked onto the disconnection of the tunnel with his Telekinesis. His eyes suddenly sharpened.
"Squeak!"
Following a crisp crack, the bridge broke in the middle. The end of the bridge that Mo Fan was standing on continued to crack in the next few seconds, all the way until it was right in front of Mo Fan!
Mo Fan turned around and left after cutting off the tunnel leading to the plaza.
On the other hand, Shen Qing had already set up the suspension bridge that connected the Hai Cang Expressway Viaduct. In order to make it easier for the people to move, Shen Qing had arranged the glacier suspension bridge very densely. Under the guidance of a few other magicians, the frightened people moved onto the expressway bridge one after another.
There were some who were willing to stay in the square, which seemed safe and secure. After all, the square covered a large area. There were five floors in total, and they had everything they needed. It would not be a problem for them to survive for a few days until the tide subsided. Shen Qing did not hold back when she met those who were unwilling to leave. She directly told them that in a few hours, monsters scarier than the demon leeches would appear. By then, all the people hiding on the floors would become their food.
The people were scared when they heard the word 'demon creatures'. The Magicians' words immediately sounded authoritative.
The group of people was heading toward the Haicang Highway. Mo Fan glanced at the map and noticed that the plaza was located right in the middle of the highway. In other words, the people in the shopping plaza only needed to follow the highway to the west to reach the Haicang Bridge, which was connected to the mainland.
"Protect them until they reach the Haicang Bridge. Someone will pick you up along the way," Shen Qing said to the Magicians in the crowd.
"Not a problem," the middle-aged Magician in the lead nodded.
Shen Qing glanced at the young man called Liu Xi, then at Fang Xiaoxue. She said, "Be careful. I still have some rescue teams to go to."
"Mmm, mmm!"
Liu Xi and Fang Xiaoxue were quite brave. Not only did they bring their blind mother, who was trapped in a residential building not far from the shopping mall, but they also escorted a few elderly people who had difficulty moving to the BRT line. No one knew how they did it since they didn't know magic, but it was obvious that in the face of such a disaster, they had become calmer and more adaptable compared to their panicked appearance before.
…
After sending the people away, Mo Fan glanced at Shen Qing, who was still wearing a worried look. He asked, "Where's the next rescue?"
"It's a primary school," Shen Qing.
Shen Qing still had a communication device with her. Normal communication devices and text communication devices could not be used. Only a red dot from the military could display the device. The Donghai Magic Association was using the device to inform the rescuers and Magicians of the locations where they needed help. The faster the red dot flashed, the more urgent the situation was.
Mo Fan glanced at the search-and-rescue device that looked like a pocket watch that Shen Qing was carrying. He noticed red dots flashing on the map. There were at least eighty to a hundred of them around the river. It was likely that every building had a few survivors.
The flashing dots were coming from a primary school. It was around two blocks away from the shopping plaza. They would arrive in no time with their speed.
"Someone went to the primary school before we came, but it didn't seem to be going well," Shen Qing said.
"Then lead the way. They are the flowers of our country. We can't let anything happen to them," Mo Fan said.

Between Foxtail Mountain and Immortal Yue Mountain was the west end of the Haicang BRT Line. Many people had gathered on the two mountains. They were being led to the BRT bridge by the government.
"We will be safe after crossing the Haicang Bridge," Liu Xi let out a long sigh and said to Fang Xiaoxue happily.
"Thank you for always helping me," Fang Xiaoxue said softly as she stood beside her mother.
"Of course, of course …" Liu Xi felt that Fang Xiaoxue's tone and attitude toward him had changed significantly, and he felt even more delighted. However, considering that her mother was still beside her, he felt a little embarrassed. Looking at the hazy bridge in front of them in the heavy rain, he changed the topic and said, "There are still a lot of people in front of us. It will probably take some time to cross the bridge slowly."
There were three bridges in total. Cars were not allowed to pass. Everyone was on foot. From where Liu Xi was standing, the BRT Line was connected to the magnificent bridge across the sea.
More than a hundred parallel steel cables were hanging from the cable towers. The bridge looked like a long silver ribbon hanging over the sea. The heavy rain had darkened the sky. It was difficult to see the end of the Haicang Bridge, but the people living in the city knew that the Haicang Pier was on the other side of the bridge. It was the place where the pier was connected to the land.
The six-lane bridge was very spacious, but the long line of people was still congested, especially at the end of the bridge. It was extremely slow to move forward.
"There are so many people. I wonder how long it will take to cross the bridge. I remember the Haicang Bridge is around seven hundred meters long," Liu Xi said.
"Let's take our time. We are already very lucky. There are still a lot of people trapped in the water tower behind us."
Liu Xi nodded, and his gaze involuntarily fell on the magicians flying in the rain.
There were many Magicians at the bridgehead, including Battlemages, Magicians from the Magic Association, Hunters, and the government … they were basically escorting the people in the rain. Liu Xi admired the Magicians who could fly. If he could fly too, it would be a piece of cake for him to bring Fang Xiaoxue and her mother away.
"Officer Chu, the water under the bridge is unusually strong!" a Mage of the Hongling Division reported with a stern face.
