Chapter 156

TL: Resonance

Wen Jingrong took four hours to reach Kistler mountain. By now, he has already learned about the general situation from the investigators’ call.

Recently, accidents have frequently happened at the mining field established by Qingwei at Kistler mountain. It was delaying the progress of the project, so Bai Lin called Ge Junxuan along to check out the situation at the scene. A sudden rainstorm came when they were returning home in the evening, so the two of them had to stay at the site lodging for a night. But at around 1-2 in the morning, Kistler mountain collapsed resulting in a heavy mudflow. It buried almost the entire site, workers as well as the nearby villages. More than 300 people are trapped.

Large number of police and rescue team members has already gathered at the site by the time Wen Jingrong reached Kistler mountain. As the storm had just passed, the ground was very muddy and the mountain was still in an unstable state. The rescue work was proceeding very slowly, they have only managed to rescue a few tens of villagers in the outer area. Ge Junxuan and the workers of Qingwei are still buried under the mud, their life and death unknown.

Seeing Wen Jingrong’s anxious look, Shang Ke said, “I’ll go take a look.”

If there is negative energy, it means that there is someone alive. A large amount of negative energy has accumulated at the area buried by debris above the village. This shows that there is still a significant amount of people alive and are in extreme fear.

“Be careful.” Wen Jingrong said worriedly.

Shang Ke nodded his head, then turned invisible and flew towards the area accumulated with negative energy.

As Shang Ke dived through the ground, he continuously found villagers in the ruined houses. They are trapped in a dark place and barely breathing as they bear with the intense pain and endless despair. They might die at any moment.

After searching for about five minutes, Shang Ke finally found Ge Junxuan and Bai Lin in a cottage.

Bai Lin, a mother and daughter were hiding in the cellar and did not suffer from much injury. On the other hand, Ge Junxuan was stuck at the cellar entrance and couldn’t move his lower half. He seemed to have fainted.

Shang Ke didn’t understand. Ge Junxuan was just one step away from the cellar, why didn’t Bai Lin help remove the heavy object on him and bring him into the cellar? It has been 5-6 hours since the accident happened. Which means, Ge Junxuan has been stuck for so long. If this goes on, his lower half will probably be paralyzed even if he was rescued later.

Shang Ke does have powers, but it was limited to the characteristic of his body. He was better with illusion and didn’t have much offensive power. There was no way he could break through the thick layer of soil within a short amount of time and directly rescue them. However, it was still possible for him to help remove the heavy object pressing down on Ge Junxuan.

Taking advantage of the fact that Ge Junxuan was still unconscious, Shang Ke materialised his body and quickly acted.

“Shang… Ke…” A hoarse voice suddenly sounded in Shang Ke’s ear just as he was busying himself. Turns out that Ge Junxuan didn’t faint. He immediately noticed Shang Ke’s presence after feeling the changes on his body.

He stared at Shang Ke in amazement with his bloodstained eyes. Shang Ke’s body was shining faint white light which looked particularly dazzling within the darkness.

Seeing that he was noticed, Shang Ke no longer hid himself. He softly comforted, “Don’t worry. Someone is coming to rescue you soon.”

“Just what are you…” Despite not being completely conscious, he still knew that it wasn’t possible for a normal person to dig into the ground without a sound.
