I Am Cultivating in the Apocalypse-Chapter 928 - 1017: A Thrilling Escape

The countdown clock shows five minutes, and the numbers are decreasing frantically, glaring in scarlet.

Jing Shu’s heart is pounding, and the beeping sound is particularly grating.

"Damn! Bomb!"

Forced to curse, Jing Shu turned and ran. For someone who’s been single for over thirty years, her sprinting speed was naturally too slow. Given that the hotel was about to blow up, she simply summoned Hulk to carry her away, rolling and crawling together.

"High-priced recycling of household appliances, air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, motorcycle batteries, cardboard, aluminum cans, and various old appliances!"

It was the loudspeaker Jing Shu turned on, blasting this announcement.

Jing Shu couldn’t bother with it as she placed it on the broadcasting platform in the control room.

Consequently, the entire hotel echoed with the voice of the loudspeaker recycling appliances, which she hoped would wake up some sleeping members of the Bodyguard Team.

And indeed, hearing this familiar sound startled many awake; it was practically a nightmare from childhood.

Jing Shu also yelled into the walkie-talkie: "Emergency! This hotel is about to self-destruct. Hurry and get everyone to evacuate the hotel. If you have the ability, jump out the window! Don’t take the elevator!! If you can’t, use the stairs!! There’s only 5 minutes! Yes, fully utilize these five minutes, and grab whatever you can while you’re at it!"

At that moment, a team on night watch didn’t waste any time and immediately went to alert their teammates. Unknowingly, the trust in Jing Shu increased greatly among everyone, and they didn’t even need to ask; they understood the gravity of the situation.

Suddenly, chaos erupted in the hotel. Not only were members of the Huaxia Team staying here last night, but also Mama Has’s official guard team, and even some other business discussions were taking place among various bosses.

However, while others focused solely on escape, the Huaxia people’s reflex was, well, a minute is enough to run away, leave a minute for reserved time, and use the remaining three minutes to grab some stuff, right?

So—

They couldn’t be bothered with revealing their abilities; one by one, they finally showed their true faces.

Jing Shu dashed forward and kicked open the door of the presidential suite, "Old man, still sleeping? Hurry and get up, or you’ll be bombed to death! Yang Yang, hurry up, get out of bed!"

Yang Yang’s eyes hadn’t opened yet, but his body was already moving. He spun around, threw on his clothes, grabbed his luggage, then swiftly packed the hotel cups, towels, and small drinks, even the quilt into a burlap sack, only then opening his eyes.

Old Zhou was about the same; by the time Jing Shu entered, Old Zhou had already packed everything, and the entire presidential suite was suddenly missing many items.

"Let’s go." Old Zhou didn’t need to ask anything.

"Jump out the window; we have Hulk as a cushion. Ten-plus floors aren’t that high." Jing Shu said directly; at this time, the elevator must be crowded, and the stairs would be full of people too.

Old Zhou suddenly stopped, "What about Mama Has?"

Jing Shu slapped her forehead, "Forgot about him. You go first; I’ll find him. He’s a key person." With that, she handed him a Hulk.

They split into two groups.

Jing Shu took the stairs and ran up two floors to find Mama Has’s room, kicking open the door of the ordinary suite. Mama Has glanced over, yawning and with hair like a bird’s nest,

"Oh, what time is it now, dear Miss Zhou? It’s very impolite to barge into a man’s room like this."

"Polite my—! #@￥." Jing Shu seized Mama Has and wrapped him in the bedsheet and blanket.

A bewildered Mama Has had no idea what was happening, only feeling the surroundings go dark and suddenly experiencing free fall.

"Ahhhhh!!"

This feeling of falling from a high place was too familiar to him.

Could this be his end?

Did Miss Zhou throw him out the window? Oh, god, this high-rise is over ten stories tall!

With a thud.

Mama Has felt himself landing on something soft, undamaged, and even bouncing a few times, which was rather fun.

Struggling to sit up, he hadn’t steadied himself before he was flipped over by a jolt, followed by the sensation of being inside something’s belly, as it frantically ran and he kept tipping over.

"Ugh~ so dizzy!"

Yet after a while, just as he was catching his breath, a sound like an earthquake shook the air, and something exploded!

His heart raced, unsure what was happening, but it seemed truly dangerous now!

Soon, after opening the blanket wrapped around him, revealing some light, he saw the surroundings: he was under a former residential building, while far away thick smoke billowed, with a mushroom cloud exploding there.

Mama Has stared dumbfounded, swallowed a lump, and asked with difficulty, "What, what happened?"

Old Zhou rummaged through his bag, pulled out a thermos, drank some goji water, and exhaled, "Your good buddy, Jie, blew up the hotel."

"Blown up??" Mama Has’s mouth hung open, "How could that be? Why would he do that?"

By now, beneath the area of an already abandoned residential building, members of the Huaxia Bodyguard Team were gathered.

Each person carried large bags; not only were their backs loaded but they also held things in both hands. Most outrageously, many directly used sheets as luggage bags, stuffing them with various hotel items.

Bedding sheets, towels, toiletries, combs were minor; anything that could be taken wasn’t left behind, and some even carried the hotel mini-fridge away on their shoulders.

"Darn it, I sneaked into the kitchen wanting to pack some stuff, but there was nothing at all; they must have planned everything, and it pissed me off."

"Old Zhang, are you coming back empty-handed?"

"No way, I took out every pot, pan, and all the stainless steel cookware from the kitchen, almost uprooted the gas stove too." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Don’t mention it, hearing the news I knew it was trouble. I deliberately went to the warehouse, but it was barren too; just some broken pots and old sheets, and a few disposable shampoo sachets, which I took as well."

"Gosh, even though I’m a speedster, I only managed to grab all the bedding from the floor I stayed on."

Mama Has stared in disbelief; for a moment, the image of Huaxia’s lavish squanderer shattered in his heart. Seeing them not only escape but also haul out everything from the hotel left him full of questions.

So, his good buddy Jie wanted to blow him up, while these lavish Huaxia people didn’t even spare the hotel’s smaller items. What’s going on in this world?

Then, Old Zhou stood up and said, "Alright, count the number of people, check if everyone has escaped, and then, we need to give Jie a proper return gift."
