Protagonist:

Shen Yao

Time came to the twenty-third day.

The rain outside grew heavier and heavier, Shen Yao felt the surroundings full of damp atmosphere, which made her feel uncomfortable all over.

Xu Ningchen took out warm air, unfortunately after adding hot air the air became even more indescribable, Shen Yao could only helplessly wrap up the clothes on her body.

"Where are we going next?" Continue walking behind Feng Shan? But although the Feng Shan District looked big, as the flood spread, this place was also flooded quite a bit, they would sooner or later have nowhere to retreat.

"Let's go take a look in the city."

Xu Ningchen closed his phone's satellite phone, on it there was still the content of a text message from a stopover, it was a staff member he had a good relationship with before, nothing more than complaining that the situation was terrible and awful, their quality of life had seriously declined.

"Will the city be very chaotic?"

Shen Yao wrapped her own clothes tight, constantly blinking her eyes.

"Fortunately, the current situation can be temporarily controlled," Xu Ningchen did not guarantee that order collapse would not appear later, but for now official forces still occupied the majority, with official leadership organizing rescue arrangements, most people were willing to cooperate.

While speaking, the two saw several ships much larger than their own slowly sailing from afar.

The calm water surface seemed to be split open by a sharp blade, the ship sounded its whistle and docked near an unflooded mountain top, people on the ship got off one after another, followed by countless supplies and equipment, these were the foundation for living.

After waiting for those several ships to leave, Xu Ningchen then slowly started the ship's engine, following the direction the other party left, trailing far behind.

Shen Yao took out the Wang Yuan from her backpack, although the view here was obstructed, she could still observe some situations on the mountain tops.

"So many people"

It seemed the situation in the city was very bad, but unfortunately they still had to go there at this time.

Facts proved that going to the city was indeed not a wise choice.

On the way they also encountered several ships transporting ordinary people, but because the ships' whistles were too loud, they avoided the risk of bumping into them early.

Patting her chest in lingering fear, Shen Yao glanced at the figures constantly moving inside the ship, already pre-setting in her heart all kinds of problems they might encounter.

Of course, the most likely was encountering panicked people who chose paths recklessly and having conflicts with them, not forgetting that ships could sail, seeing escape tools, those with ill intentions would definitely try to seize them.

Before entering the city, Xu Ningchen mentioned the medicine in the Space Backpack to Shen Yao, saying that if there was an opportunity, they could take the chance to rescue some ordinary people stranded outside.

"Extra points?"

Shen Yao's eyes lit up, immediately understanding Xu Ningchen's purpose in doing this.

Xu Ningchen smiled, "This time period is not yet the most chaotic time," they took the opportunity to run two more trips, maybe the harvest would be abundant.

Of course, the premise for doing all this was that they themselves were safe enough.

If the situation on the road changed, then sorry, extra points were extra precisely because they were not content that must be done.

Instance missions, after all, still prioritized clearing the instance.

Shen Yao nodded with an "en," then she raised her hand and pointed ahead where the road could no longer be seen, only the vast expanse of water remained, "We can first turn around outside the city."

Xu Ningchen started the ship, the engine's sound was perfectly isolated in the rain curtain, let alone people far from them, even those nearby could not hear anything.

The ship circled around the suburbs, and they really encountered ordinary people trapped there.

This was a six-story building, water had already flooded to about the third floor, and it looked like it would continue to rise, while the families living on the top floor (sixth floor), for various reasons had not been taken away by the officials, at this moment were waving their arms with worried faces to greet the ships on the water.

"Can you take us to Feng Shan?"

Speaking was a woman not very old, holding a pale-faced child in her arms, she tried her best to shout at the top of her voice, unfortunately still because of the rain curtain could not all reach Shen Yao's ears.

Hearing the two words Feng Shan vaguely, Shen Yao with her fairly smart brain immediately thought of the people constantly transported by the ships, the terrain here indeed could not compare to around Feng Shan.

"How many people?"

Xu Ningchen had already spoken, considering their ship's passenger capacity limit, he did not immediately agree.

The speaking woman's eyes lit up, saying her family had four people, plus two elderly, but their bodies could not withstand it, currently resting in the room.

As for the other floors of this building, the advantage of self-built houses showed, except for their family of four who had not run away early, everyone else had already left this building.

Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen both wore white protective suits on their bodies, moored the ship at the fourth floor, waiting for the family of four to slowly come down.

Shen Yao even had the mood to chat with them, "Every day there are ships going to Feng Shan from the city, why not ask them to bring you along?"

Although this suburb was remote, there were ships passing through, at least Shen Yao saw several today.

The woman was named Zhou Ting, pulling open her pale mouth corner to explain they had shouted before, ships that could come all had to return to the city to pick up people, besides the city was very chaotic, their family of four neither sick nor had combat power, going there would only be delivering food.

Shen Yao:...

What Shen Yao did not say was, with their weak bodies going to Feng Shan would not get any good either.

Old, weak, sick, disabled, besides sick and disabled, the rest were all full.

After the family of four smoothly sat into the cabin, Xu Ningchen simply brought people back to Feng Shan.

On the way, Shen Yao tentatively asked about other news regarding the city, unfortunately the family of four was more homebound than herself, completely did not know what useful content there was.

"We can only moor the ship at the riverbank, you have to climb up yourselves."

Nowadays Feng Shan had few places without people, basically all crowded with heads, the family of four Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen brought back did not count for anything.

Zhou Ting thanked Shen Yao for the help, she was not the kind of person who took an inch and wanted a mile, in this world being pulled by someone was already lucky enough, asking for too much would not have good results.

Carrying the things they brought out, the family of four slowly moved along the mountain path, Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen also started the ship again and left.

It was still early, they could run one more trip to the city, Xu Ningchen and Shen Yao drove the ship around in circles.

But this time luck was not good, they encountered several trapped people, but these people could not see the current situation clearly, always thinking of giving orders.

Shen Yao was not a good-tempered person, she turned around and pulled Xu Ningchen to leave, so capable? Then swim to Feng Shan yourself.

At dusk, the ship stopped beside a building that could simply provide cover.

The two sat in the cabin and ate some food, then organized the news they got today.

Most importantly, reinforcements from other cities will arrive in three days with larger ships to evacuate people, and by then all survivors in Linqing City will be transferred.

By then, perhaps it will be the most chaotic time.

Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen definitely won't leave Linqing, so these past few days they've been going out early and returning late every day to round people up in the city and send them to Feng Shan.

As for what good this does, they'll only know when they leave the Instance.

Time came to the twenty-seventh day.

The areas around Feng Shan were filled with people, and at the same time ships kept coming and going without cease.

That day a black shadow appeared at the edge, and Shen Yao noticed a giant ship tens of meters tall appearing before everyone's eyes as if cutting through thorns and brambles.

Cheers could be clearly heard through the rain curtain; now their ships didn't need to hide too far away, since so many large and small vessels were moored in the surrounding waters.

Officials came forward and began to orderly evacuate the survivors living on Feng Shan.

Their destination was to leave Linqing; as for which city they would go to, it depended on the scope of this rain's impact.

Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen sat in the cabin, eating while watching the liveliness outside.

The liveliness was real liveliness, with some people quarreling on the spot, but because they were far away, even with the Wang Yuan's help Shen Yao could still only see a bit of shadow.

Fortunately the system wasn't just for show—how could it miss out on gossip at a time like this? It would definitely display everything from all angles without blind spots.

Shen Yao once again rode the system's coattails, white-looting this farce on the Mountain Top.

Shen Yao:...

To be sure, eating while watching the liveliness made her mood brighten instantly; life really couldn't be too calm.

Xu Ningchen:...

Xu Ningchen didn't know where Shen Yao's good mood this morning came from; he smiled as he spoke of today's arrangements, and barring accidents they would still have to make one trip back to Uptown.

"There are people left behind there," they could offer help in the snow.

Xu Ningchen looked at the population quantity around Feng Shan and knew such transport consumed countless resources; those who could smoothly reach Feng Shan were all Lucky Ones, and compared to this, Linqing's original population of several million was too tiny.

Shen Yao neither refuted nor resisted, thinking to herself, isn't it just making one trip back to Uptown? While there's still time now, earning more points is the proper thing to do.

Besides, they weren't the only ones doing this; other Taskers each showed their abilities, with a clear route to earning points right before their eyes. Unless one was the kind of Salted Fish who always had no great ambition and only wanted to eat and wait for death, anyone with some thought would find ways to get people onto ships.

Over the next two days, Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen sailed back and forth without cease on the route between Uptown and Feng Shan.

Another ship that had originally been stored in the Backpack space was taken out, and Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen cooperated with tacit understanding, only accepting people without threat (no illness and weak), so they rarely caused any other trouble.

But others weren't as lucky as them; after all, those who could still stay in the city at this time more or less had some problems of their own.

The officials wouldn't intentionally abandon anyone, but some people just liked to be too clever for their own good.

Shen Yao looked at the person making a fuss and demanding she pick them up, and shook her head speechlessly.

"Go back."

The sky was faintly darkening; calculating it, their time out wasn't early, and at this time both ships carried a few sporadic people, so hurrying back to Feng Shan was the proper thing to do.

One must know that giant ships from Outside the city didn't come every day to pick people up; now it was safer to board as early as possible, and who knew how many people secretly bribed staff in private just to be able to leave on the ship a moment earlier.
