Chapter 258

~5 min read 803 words

Ning Chen tore the vegetation aside with his hands.

He saw the content above:

【Waitomo Glowworm Caves are located in a karst region, famous for its underground caverns. The limestone layers have formed a massive cave ecosystem, densely populated with various stalactites and glowworms, breathtakingly beautiful.】

【You can take a bamboo raft through the pitch-black caverns to reach and admire the cave scenery.】

【Now you can continue along the Welcome Road; after about two kilometers, you will see the Visitor Center.】

【Staff there will introduce the site, register you, and guide you further.】

Ning Chen read every single word of this content without missing a thing.

As for the map beside it, it was blurry and indistinct.

"Let's go." His face showed no expression.

He continued walking forward along the highway.

Two kilometers is not far.

The Visitor Center.

Last year, the power of that "Cason" was terrifying.

This place is practically a massive landfill.

Countless debris items were swept here.

Many high-rise buildings were destroyed.

Shards, glass, plastic, steel plates.

All were torn apart and ruined by the hurricane.

There were also cars with severe damage, rotting food, and all kinds of toys and goods.

And because it happened last year,

most of this place is now covered by green vegetation.

It has a feeling of a new ruin.

Zhang Xiao asked in surprise, "What happened here?"

Ning Chen, expressionless, took a step and walked forward.

"A super-hurricane swept through everything; no one lives here anymore." He said it lightly.

"Oh... truly terrifying!" Zhang Xiao looked around and hurried to catch up.

Ning Chen casually picked up a soda can from the ground.

It was not broken.

But the rust on the can's body told of time passing.

Or perhaps it was due to being washed and soaked by rainwater.

But the result, for a soda can,

was undeniable.

It was dead.

If not for that super-hurricane,

this trip would have come true with her.

Instead, it was like this rusty soda can now.

They had prepared so much together.

Prepared so much.

Full of joy, they prepared to come here.

But because of the hurricane,

they could not arrive.

At that time,

he remembered her standing by the sea, gazing into the distance.

But now he could not recall her gaze at all.

In Brother Shiguang's live stream,

【Where is this? Why has it become ruins?】

【I heard Brother Shiguang say it experienced a super-hurricane!】

【I think I recognize this place.】

【The most recent super-hurricane occurred last year; at that time, a super-hurricane named "Cason" swept across the entire Dongfu Island!】

【Did Brother Shiguang come here to take us on a ruin exploration?】

【As expected of Brother Shiguang; this place hasn't been visited in a long time, yet he even thought of a way to enter through the caverns!】

【I wonder what kind of surprise this streamer will bring us this time!】

The number of viewers in the live stream began to surge again.

The online count had already exceeded one million.

Moreover, many big streamers also dropped in one after another.

With a wave of their hands, they sent several large gifts.

Just at that moment,

"Woof, woof, woof!"

The husky barked.

Ning Chen looked up.

He saw a middle-aged man wearing a cotton-padded jacket.

He was pushing a small cart in his hands.

Inside lay quite a few relatively intact supplies for daily life.

Time seemed to pause for two seconds.

Did Ning Chen frowned slightly.

Wasn't it said that no one lived here anymore?

How could there be strangers moving around here now?

Could it be that, driven by some departments,

reconstruction activities were underway here?

Yet there was no news from any quarter about reconstruction.

Moreover, the current method of reaching the island was extremely perilous and difficult.

How did the person before his eyes manage to get here?

Did Ning Chen looked at this person.

His steps were somewhat unsteady.

Yet within that unsteadiness lay a natural ease.

Did Ning Chen suddenly realized something.

Could this person have been here all along, never evacuated?

That sounded incredible.

But Did Ning Chen merely watched the person quietly.

180. Only a Husky could have such grand airs!

【How could this person be on the island?】

【Just now, seeing Brother Shiguang's method of entering the island, did he perhaps go through the same?】

【That doesn't make sense; I recall Dongfu Island should have no residents now!】

【Could it be we guessed wrong? This place might not be Dongfu Island after all!】

【The one above, you definitely guessed right; I once came here to travel!】

【Then what is going on here?】

【Perhaps he is a staff member.】

The viewers in the live stream also saw that person and began to discuss.

All sorts of experts started to reason and speculate.
