Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 432 - 221 Strange Phenomenon

"Chief, it’s not good!"

Just as the Fire Chief was directing his team in the follow-up work of firefighting, a firefighter hurried over. Seeing the appearance of this firefighter, the Fire Chief’s heart couldn’t help but sink.

In Dragon Country’s firefighting team configuration, there is a specific member responsible for predicting fire behavior and assessing risks based on the surrounding environment and weather changes.

On ordinary days, if no team member reports to him, it means everything is operating normally. But if someone actively seeks him out, it means the fire is about to undergo unpredictable changes.

The next words from this predictor made the Fire Chief’s recently ignited hope plummet to the bottom.

"According to the message from the meteorological bureau and observations of the surrounding airflow, there will be another gust of wind here in five minutes!"

The predictor’s voice trembled uncontrollably as he spoke. They understood better than anyone the lethal impact of Gale on a forest fire.

The reason forest fires are so hard to manage is not just because of the abundant combustibles in the forest but also because in mountainous environments, the wind is uncontrollable. And wind is the main factor that exacerbates the fire.

After receiving the report from the predictor, the Fire Chief did not hesitate. He immediately informed the other district Fire Chiefs of the predictor’s message through the intercom.

Then he quickly switched channels to contact his firefighters, instructing them to evacuate as quickly as possible and ensure they do not get trapped in the mountain fire.

But just as the Fire Chief issued this order, the Gale surged, and the originally calm fire instantly grew bigger. Seeing the scene in front of him, the Fire Chief shouted loudly, a pained expression on his face.

Barring any miracles, the firefighters who just went in would not come out alive. The Fire Chief’s only hope now was that their heavy-duty fireproof suits could help them escape.

"You must hold on!"

The Fire Chief prayed silently in his heart.

He knew that when firefighters are trapped in a fire, mental perseverance is more crucial than external help. If the firefighters’ mental fortitude collapses and they give up, no one can save them.

Meanwhile, the firefighters trapped in the mountain fire felt the surrounding heat seeping in, instantly sweating profusely.

"Although this new equipment is fireproof, this scorching feeling is really uncomfortable!"

A firefighter managed a wry smile on his face. To be able to smile in such circumstances proved that this firefighter was a seasoned warrior.

Upon hearing this firefighter’s words, another firefighter tilted his head and gave him a look as if he were a lunatic.

It was only then that the first speaking firefighter noticed that while he was drenched in sweat, his companion beside him looked completely unaffected, without a drop of sweat.

"Don’t you know there’s a cooling system in our Fire Axe?"

The firefighter wore a helpless expression as he walked over to his sweating companion, lifted the cover on his wrist, and pressed one of the buttons.

The moment the button was pressed, the sound of a blower came from the back of the suit, and white gas slowly entered the suit. The sweating firefighter instantly felt his body cool down, like jumping into a refreshing pool straight from the desert.

"There’s not just oxygen in our tanks but also specially treated cooling nitrogen and atomized adrenaline for emergency handling in dangerous situations."

After hearing this, the firefighter scratched his head awkwardly and muttered as if talking to himself.

"How come I didn’t know our new equipment had so many features?"

Though he spoke softly, his words were still caught by his companion.

"If you knew, that would be strange! It’s because during training sessions, you’re either skipping class or on your way to skip class!"

The firefighter looked at his companion with an expression of frustrated disappointment.

This brother was good in every way except for being utterly inattentive during theoretical lessons. Technically, equipment training isn’t part of theoretical lessons, but he seemed to think that as long as he was physically strong, he could handle anything.

"Alright, we need to get out of here quickly. If we stay any longer, we’ll really be in danger!"

The firefighter beside him spoke with a serious expression.

"After all, this is the first time we’re using this equipment in a real situation, and we don’t know how long it can last. The theoretical values are inexact!"

Hearing his companion’s words, the other firefighters gathered around, trying to stay close to each other as they headed back the way they came.

At the same time, this situation was happening to other firefighters too, and as the wind grew stronger, the flames grew higher, causing the Hunters trapped in between to look increasingly worried.
