Chapter 492 Yang Le is still on the way
The destruction caused by the Giant can be described as a Natural Disaster.
An entire Block had turned into Ruins, and the reason was simply because of a single clap from the Giant. If it were in the Past, Reed would have definitely thought someone was playing a joke on him, but now this Business was happening right before his eyes.
Reed was extremely grateful at this moment that the group of people who might be Mercenaries or Super Heroes or something, did not launch an Attack in the Block where they were.
If viewed from a Bird's-eye View, the Street where Reed was and the one that turned into Ruins were connected in an L-shape. Reed and his group were at one end, Thompson and his group were at the other, and Robert, who had transformed into a Giant, was at the corner Position.
However, although they did not directly suffer an Attack, the Block where Reed and his group were located was also affected to some extent due to being too close. Some Buildings developed cracks, and the Car where Reed and Susan were hiding also overturned.
Fortunately, both he and Susan only had some minor Scratches. However, this Car that they had finally found and just started was obviously unusable.
Reed couldn't help but feel annoyed. Was he Cursed by someone? Why were the Transportation Tool that passed through his Hand today either out of Oil or scrapped?
Reed calmed his Mood. Now was not the time to think about those probability Problems. They had to escape from here quickly. The Giant that the later joiner transformed into was much more powerful than the ones they had encountered before.
Under Reed's Gaze, Susan tiptoed out of the overturned Car, then squatted at the Doorway of the Car and pulled Reed up. The two of them did not act rashly and tacitly chose to wait for an opportunity to act behind the Cover.
"We need to find Ben and Johnny," Susan said to Reed in Sign Language.
"I know," Reed Response to Susan. Ben and Johnny had also escaped into this Street when they were being chased. If they were lucky, the two of them should still be alive.
However, after seeing the destructive power of the Giant, Reed felt that this possibility was really small. But facing his best friend and brother-in-law, Reed was willing to bet on that small probability.
But now the key Problem was, how were they going to find those two people? That Giant was standing near the Street entrance. If they were discovered by him, it would not be a good Thing. This was not a horror Game, and there was no Choice to start over after failing.
Therefore, Reed had to plan before acting, first know the exact Position of Ben and Johnny, and then plan a route to take the two of them. After that, the group of four would leave this Ghost place nimbly.
Just as Reed was thinking of a Method, Susan took out her Mobile phone from her upper Pocket and started to Maneuver it.
Reed was filled with Puzzlement and quickly used Sign Language to Ask Susan what she was doing, and told her that it was not Reason to rely on the Bell Ring of a Phone to find people at this time, and it would be an act that would kill everyone.
Susan rolled her eyes at Reed and Reply in Sign Language: "I installed a Tracker on Johnny's Body."
"?" Reed tilted his Head, suddenly Feeling that his fiancée in front of him was a bit scary.
In fact, there was a Reason why Susan installed a Tracker on Johnny, but the Situation was Emergency now, and she couldn't explain it at all. Moreover, it was really too much Trouble to explain it in Sign Language, so Susan decided to talk about it later.
Praying in her Heart that the Tracker would not break, Susan nervously opened the self-made APP, which would display the Position of the Tracker in real time. Seeing the flashing Green Dot on the Radar Chart, Susan almost burst into tears of joy.
Susan showed the Radar Chart to Reed, and the latter also breathed a sigh of relief. Although he could not be completely sure whether the two were alive, at least he knew their Position.
Reed estimated the Position based on the Radar Chart, then quietly poked his Head out to observe the surrounding Environment, and found that the Position displayed on the Radar should be in the Flower Shop across the Street.
Although the two sides of the Door of the Flower Shop were not ordinary Walls for the Reason of facilitating the display of Bouquets, but two Floor-to-ceiling Window, and at this time the Glass of the windows had already Shattering, but the Bouquets and Flower Pot and other Things inside were crookedly lying on the Ground. In addition, with the dim Light Ray of the evening, Reed could not see the specific Situation inside the Flower Shop clearly.
Therefore, Reed and Susan still could not be sure that Johnny and the other were inside.
This meant that Reed still had to go and check. At the very least, he had to stand at the Doorway of the Flower Shop and look inside. In the Situation where a Giant was wandering nearby, this move was undoubtedly dangerous.
Reed did not hesitate. He first confirmed the Position of the Giant and found that it was still standing near the Street entrance. Then he made a Gesture to let Susan stay in the Original Place, and then he crouched down and tiptoed towards the Flower Shop.
The Reason for not letting Susan follow was because one person's Goal was small, more flexible, and not easy to be discovered. Even if they were discovered by the Giant, it would save them from being completely annihilated.
Tiptoeing to the Doorway of the Flower Shop, Reed poked his Head out and took a look, and was immediately overjoyed. Johnny and Ben were both inside, but the two of them were lying motionless on the Ground at this time, and he didn't know if they were alive or Death.
Calming his Mood, Reed carefully stepped over various Debris and walked closer to Ben's Body. He gently turned Ben's Body over. What relieved him was that there were no obvious External Injury on Ben's Body.
Putting his Ear to his chest to listen, the Heartbeat was strong. Reed inferred from the previous performance that Ben should have Fainted from Exhaustion. Afterwards, Reed checked on Johnny in the same way. He could only say that Ben had protected him very well, but if he did not receive Treatment, Johnny was likely to say goodbye to his Leg.
Reed breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they were still alive, everything would be fine. Even if modern medicine could not cure Johnny's Leg, Reed was confident that he could get Johnny a Prosthetic Body that was as good as the original.
Just as Reed was worrying about how to take the two of them away, a shout that was extremely familiar to him suddenly sounded from behind.
"Run! Reed!"
It was Susan. Reed didn't even need to use his Brain to think. He knew the Reason why Susan was talking loudly to him at this time. He slowly turned his Head, and a Figure that covered the sky and the sun was standing at the Doorway of the Flower Shop.
At some point, the huge body size blocked the Doorway of the Flower Shop. Reed could not find a single gap at all, and was completely blocked. This meant that Reed had no possibility of escape at all.
"Stay away from them!" Susan picked up various Garbage from the Ground and threw them at Robert. But with her Strength, it was not even enough to tickle Robert who had Giant-ified.
Ignoring Susan behind him, the Giant at this time was obviously more interested in Reed and the other two inside the Flower Shop. But judging from the ferocious Expression on his Head, this interest was definitely not with Goodwill.
Looking at the huge Palm that seemed to be grabbing towards him, Reed suddenly Felt a little funny. He had imagined that he would die of old age, or die because of an Experiment Malfunction, but he had never thought that he would be pinched to Death.
What a crazy day.
