Ye Ling nodded, inwardly despising herself. [Ye Ling, Ye Ling, get your act together! This is a post-apocalyptic story! The people in the apocalypse are far more terrifying than my parents and relatives. Don't let the fact that this is a book excuse you to ignore the ugliness of humanity.]

But I've told them all my secrets. They probably won't sell me out, right? If they really do intend to, I'll quietly leave them, hide far away, and never appear in their sight again for the rest of my life.

Her brothers looked exasperated. Were they really that untrustworthy?

Wen Mengxia was about to speak when Wen Yanchen stopped her and shook his head slightly.

At this point, any promises are meaningless; only actions can prove that she made the right choice.

"Help! My son is trapped underneath! Someone please save us!"

"Aaaaaah, my leg is trapped! Help! I don't want to die! Waaah, I don't want to die!"

Cries for help and sobs came from afar. Ye Jingyan and the others exchanged glances, and Ye Jingyan said, "Prepare to rescue them."

"Wait a moment."

Ye Ling stopped everyone, composed herself, and said to them, "I've prepared some gloves and helmets for you. While we're rescuing people, we also need to protect ourselves."

The capital city is not located in an earthquake zone, according to the notification from above, so many people have fled to the capital for refuge.

But no one expected that even though it wasn't in the earthquake zone, many houses in the capital were still destroyed by the typhoon. In particular, houses that were already on the verge of collapse during the aftershocks were swept away by the typhoon.

The rescue team, fully prepared and ready to go, immediately launched a rescue operation after receiving the notification from above.

"This rock is too big; we need someone to help lift it."

"Quick, quick, there's a child down there."

"Be careful, you can't walk on this. Nobody knows how many people are trapped underneath."

Many people, knowing the capital was safe, stayed indoors and watched what was happening outside. Little did they know that the earthquake was so violent that they had no chance to escape.

Ye Ling and Moody rushed to an old man, grabbed some rocks, and said to him, "Uncle, we're here to help you."

When the uncle saw the two girls, he shouted, "What can you two girls do? Don't cause any trouble."

Ye Ling chuckled: "Girls can hold up half the sky too. 1, 2, 3, go!"

While the man was still in shock, Ye Ling and Moody moved a huge rock aside and said to him, "Don't just stand there, let's save him."

Moody wore a mask because she was worried that people would recognize her and accuse her of putting on a show. She chose to wear a mask so that she could focus on saving lives.

She and Ye Ling worked together; Ye Ling bent down to rescue the person, while she was responsible for monitoring the surrounding situation. If any rocks became loose, she would immediately pull Ye Ling away.

The uncle quickly regained his senses and, together with Ye Ling, rescued the woman trapped underneath.

The woman pointed down and cried to them, "Please save my granddaughter, she's down there."

Ye Ling crouched down and looked inside. She did see a little girl, but her head had been pierced by a steel bar.

She shook her head at the man, who bent down to look inside. He sighed heavily, "Let's drag her out. We can't let her be buried in the rubble."

Ps:

The apocalypse has officially begun...
