Chapter 487: Lost Companions
"General God, have you seen other members of my team?"
Before Hans and I met, they had gathered three of his subordinates, but when he got on the spaceship, he had a total of seven people. Then one of them was hit by a rocket and was shot out at the last moment of the spaceship taking off. So besides himself, there should be six Hydra players.↑, but now there are only three people around him, and three are still missing.
In fact, there are far more than three subordinates of Hans, and I am not full of people. In addition to me, those who boarded the spaceship before were Ye Yue, Ling, Xiaochun, Emmenis, Jingjing, Lingling, Shuangxue, Bailang and Xiaobai. The remaining ones were a few robot dogs, and it doesn’t matter if they lost them. Now those gathered by me are Xiaochun, Emmenis, Jingjing, Bailang, and the rest are gone, which means that there are more people here than Hans.
"Don't worry, I guess people may be buried under the ruins, so there is no signal. I also lack five people here, and I don't know where they are buried!"
In fact, for the missing people, we really have no way to do anything except wait for them to come out by themselves. The crashed spacecraft destroyed several blocks. Now a large area around is almost covered with collapsed ruins and holey buildings. The streets are covered with wounded people covered with mud and blood. All kinds of damaged cars and building debris fell on the streets. Rescue is probably not allowed to be in for a while. And even if you come in, it is not so easy to find our people in such a large area. But one thing we are more at ease is that at least our people are protected by power armor. Even if they are buried, as long as they are not particularly unlucky, they will generally not be in danger of life.
As soon as I comforted Hans, a life recognition signal suddenly popped up in the communication channel. This is a soldier of Hydra. The other party can go online and indicate that the signal is connected. But I don’t know why it cannot be connected quickly, and the light can see the life recognition signal.
Without Hans speaking, I just asked everyone to follow this signal and see the situation. Everyone didn't go any further. Anyway, the streets were covered with rubble, so it would be better to just flip over the building ruins directly, and the speed would be faster.
The previous signal was not far from us. However, the signal was obviously abnormal and it disappeared completely. Fortunately, we had already positioned the coordinates before, so we quickly found the signal location, but there were no Hans's team members here, and we only saw a group of Japanese people cleaning up the rubble. It seemed that some companions were buried and busy with rescue. However, after seeing us appear, these people were stunned. After all, our outfits don't look like rescue teams. And obviously they are not ordinary people.
Regardless of the dull eyes of those people, we positioned an approximate position according to the surrounding situation, and then asked Xiaochun to use electromagnetic induction to detect it, and the signal was really discovered.
"Here." Xiao Chun waved his hand, and Hans and the others ran over immediately. There were some broken rubble on this place. A group of us climbed up directly, and then kicked and threw it with both hands and feet. In less than a minute, most of the rubble was removed. After all, for ordinary people, the concrete blocks and stone slabs that required two people to work together to move were like movie props made of foam to us. When we saw a large stone, we kicked it away. Even if there were steel bars, it was okay. Cutting steel bars on our high-frequency vibration blades was as easy as cutting tofu.
As the Japanese around us were stunned, we cleared the rubble on it in a few seconds. Then Xiaochun, Emmenis and Jingjing, I, together with me, grabbed a huge wall fragment with dozens of flat surfaces, and then flew away with force. The wall fragment flew across the road, and then smashed on the edge of the ruins opposite and shattered.
As the wall was lifted, we immediately received the signal again. However, it was still quite weak.
"Hurry up, I see the signal." Hans shouted anxiously.
We went up and threw away all the things that were hindered from above. Even the fragments weighing several tons were easily lifted to the side of the road. Then we found a twisted H-shaped steel beam. This thing is generally the main support structure in large buildings, and its function is similar to the steel bars used in ordinary buildings. However, the steel bars are too thin. If you need to build a building with a maximum of ten-story buildings, it is obviously not enough to use reinforced concrete. At this time, this h-shaped steel beam is needed. There are many models of this thing. The width of the one we saw is fifty centimeters and the thickness of the middle keel part is ten centimeters. The load-bearing capacity of this steel beam is very terrifying. Put it in the center of the concrete support column, in a group of four, forming a tic toe frame, and then pouring concrete, and then a particularly strong support and load-bearing structure can be formed. All high-rise buildings with more than eighty floors need a load-bearing system of this structure.
Because it is used for load-bearing, the hardness of this thing can naturally be imagined. Hans's subordinate was obviously stuck under the steel beam, otherwise he would not be able to come out with the power of his body, but since we found him, it would be easier.
I first tried to hold the steel beam and lift it up, but I found that I couldn't use it. I pinched obvious finger marks from the places I grabbed, but the steel beam just couldn't be pulled out. There were probably many things connected below, so I got stuck.
There is no way, we can only clean up the surrounding debris first, and clean up all the things that are in the way.
In fact, there are only a few aspects of the difficulty of disaster rescue. The first is that the victims cannot be found; the second is that the landslide will cause secondary damage during excavation; the third is that most of the building fragments are not light, and it is difficult to carry by manpower, and the machine is afraid of hurting people inside; the fourth is that there are many steel bars in the building, and these steel bars will be pulled together. Although the strength of the building is guaranteed, these steel bars will pull each other in the rescue, resulting in the fragments being entangled in some places and cannot be moved away. The steel bars need to be cut short to remove the fragments, but the steel bars are wrapped in concrete. It is easy to hurt people inside by demolishing them with large machinery. Small machinery is not strong enough and requires time to be delayed. These are the main reasons for the difficulties in rescue.
However, these reasons are not a problem for us.
First, we all have signal transmitters on them, so positioning is not a problem.
Second. We all have power armor, so we don’t worry about landslides or other situations during excavation that will cause secondary damage.
Third, everyone here is a powerful force like heavy machinery. To us, bricks and rubble weighing several tons or dozens of tons are like children's building blocks. It is completely unnecessary to grab them.
Fourth, we can break steel bars and other things with bare hands, and we are equipped with high-frequency vibration blades. Cutting steel bars is like cutting tofu, so there is no need to worry about the rubble being entangled and unable to pull them away.
Because we didn't care about the four kinds of troubles, our excavation speed was obviously much faster than that of the normal rescue team. Those who didn't know thought it was a group of groundhogs digging holes, so we saw us digging on the rubble pile, and then we dug into the rubble pile, just seeing gravel and rubble flying everywhere.
"Damn, I said why can't I receive the signal?"
Finally, we cleared out the things that were in trouble nearby. We finally saw the situation below.
It turned out that this Hydra soldier was pressed down by a spacecraft fragment as big as two double beds, and above it was load-bearing beams in three large buildings. These load-bearing beams were inverted by steel bars, H-shaped steel and concrete. The metal content inside them was very high, and the signal shielding effect was very strong. With the spacecraft fragments below, it was no wonder we could not receive the signal.
Because all the moving things around were dug up, the remaining three support beams were exposed. Armenis and I lifted one of the broken beams and threw them out, and then broke the connection part of the other beam that was inserted into the deep one below. Xiao Chun and Jingjing pulled the measurement out on it. We didn't move the last beam. We broke the pile on both sides directly from the middle, and then began to cut the hull fragments below.
After cutting a gap in the hull fragments, we started to tear the gap with bare hands. Soon the gap was torn open, and the Hydra members below finally crawled out.
It's almost as we guessed, this guy is basically fine, with no other impact except for the discomfort caused by the shock.
As soon as he came out, he started hugging us one by one, obviously very excited. Although this guy was also from an elite army, he was buried under the ruins and was unable to move. The signal was not available, and I don’t know if there would be rescue. That situation puts great psychological pressure on humans. Although this guy is an elite, he is still a human after all, which is different from us. He still has the innate defects of humans, which is smaller than that of ordinary people. Besides, although he was nervous and afraid when he was down, he did not have it after all. Moreover, although he was nervous and afraid when he was down, he was not
I was panicked and knew to use my equipment to save myself. The signal we received before was that he used a small robot for reconnaissance to drag a communication line, and then climbed from the gap in the rubble pile to a relatively close to the outside, so we received a signal for a short while. However, the rubble pile fell, the reconnaissance robot was smashed and the wires were broken, so we lost the signal again. However, even the short signal still allowed us to accurately locate his position and rescue him.
Just as we were just dropping the Hydra member, a muffled sound came from the rubble pile that the Japanese were digging behind us. The entire ground vibrated. The Japanese carrying fragments on it were all shocked and some even rolled down.
With this explosion, we suddenly received a signal, and it was different from the unlucky Hydra. The signal we received was very strong, and communication was directly established in the spiritual network.
"Lingling, are you okay?" We asked the moment the communication recovered quickly.
Lingling replied directly: "Master, I was pressed down by something unknown on the spaceship. Help me!"
"I understand, we are not far above you. Please leave the things above you right away."
As I said that, I led everyone over, but when I saw us coming, there was a woman in her thirties who suddenly blocked our way.
"We want to save people, why are you stopping us?"
The woman did not let us go immediately, but said very politely: "I saw that the excavation process you just dug was very fast, but the noise was too loud. Our friends and some passers-by were buried below. You dug like you just now, and none of them could survive. After all, our people are not as powerful armor protection as your friends."
This woman is obviously the very smart type. Others are happy to see us coming because they all think that our digging ability is so strong that we must come to help save people. Once we join, we will definitely be able to quickly dig out the trapped people. However, only this woman noticed that our movements were too exaggerated, and she also found that the people we rescued were wearing armor like everyone else.
Although the woman with Xiaochun and I didn't know anything about her armor, Hans and her power armor had a mechanical feeling. You can see things like hydraulic tops in many places. You can tell at a glance that it was power armor. So she quickly realized that the reason why we move so much is because we are not worried that our own people will be killed in it. But their companions are ordinary people after all. If we dig like this, it is probably that the rubble that has not been dug out and their people will be killed by the quadratic collapse caused by the vibration.
"Don't worry, we will be careful not to hurt your people."
"Please, please." The other party bowed to the end, expressed his feelings to us, and quickly asked others to move aside to make room for us. After all, when we were working, it was like a group of excavators starting work. It was absolutely dangerous to stand next to us.
As usual, Xiaochun first scans the environment to confirm the structure of the rubble and the location of the survivors before he can start. However, after Xiaochun completes scanning, he has trouble.
"Sorry, your companion has died, and there is only one survivor left below. It is in a deep position and is with our companion, so we plan to use blasting to remove the rubble from it."
The Japanese around him immediately stopped doing it when they heard it. After all, no one could believe it. After all, we are outsiders. Now we suddenly say that their companions are dead, so of course they will not believe it. And even if their companions are dead, they will definitely want to dig it out. If we use the blasting method, even if their companions are not dead, they will definitely die. Therefore, these people are excited. If we were not wearing power armor, they were obviously from the military system, which is obviously not easy to mess with. They would probably be able to rush up and fight with us. But even so, these people started to make trouble and did not let us use blasting methods. However, Lingling was buried at a very deep place, and there was a lot of rubble piled up on it. I don’t know when it was dug. Anyway, there were no living people on it, so it was obvious that the blasting method was the most efficient. But those Japanese people just refused to do it.
"Boss, what's going on?" (To be continued...)
