Chapter 272: Mutation - Suspended Ground 2
Anjiu was so busy taking care of himself that he had no time to see what was happening next.
The terrain was high in the middle and low on all sides, making it impossible for her to stand steadily. She always felt like her body was falling backwards.
She bent down, felt her way up the stone steps to the original location of the pavilion, stretched her limbs as flat as possible on the ground, and pressed her fingers tightly into the gaps to avoid being thrown out of the ground due to the violent shaking.
Recalling the roof of the residential building, there are three pointed roofs in total. Counting the number of vibrations, the second one has passed and only the last one is left.
Just as he was thinking this, his body shook again. Anjiu used force with his fingers and held his breath to avoid inhaling too much dirt and dust into his lungs.
She looked around carefully for any signs of fracture, but watched helplessly as the soil at the edge cracked and fell down.
And she couldn't hear any sound of it landing.
It’s almost there…it’s going to be over soon.
Finally, the residential building slowly moved and revealed a corner. Looking at the roof that had become a ruin and was full of rubble, An Jiu guessed that the bottom of his land was almost flattened.
With the last jolt, it finally stabilized.
Anjiu loosened his fingers, but still lay on the ground, not daring to move, for fear of any unexpected situation.
As more and more of the residential building was exposed, she saw the blue-gray marble on the building's exterior wall falling off one after another, the window glass was shattered, the curtains were flying, and several air-conditioning units were hanging in the air by their wires, bumping around.
On the side walls on both sides, a vertical crack appeared, as if the residential building would be split in half in an instant.
Two large trees and the pillars used to build the pavilion fell from her place, causing the landscape lake below to be horribly damaged.
Five or six survivors fled out of the building, covering their heads. Looking at their former homes, they didn't know where to run.
At this time, someone discovered Anjiu upstairs, stepped on the ruins and approached her, waving and shouting desperately.
"Help!"
"Save us!"
However, the land under their feet drifted to the left, and the land under Anjiu's feet drifted forward, and they were getting farther and farther away.
They didn't know that the crack in the building behind them was getting bigger and bigger, like a zipper being torn off, and the building was separated to the left and right and was shaking above their heads.
An Jiu was terrified and couldn't help but yell at them, "The building is going to collapse! Run!"
Just at this moment, a crosswind blew and her voice was blown away before it could be heard.
"…Did she speak?"
"What did you say? I can't hear you. Save us!"
Seeing that they didn't understand what he meant, Anjiu desperately pointed upwards, indicating that the building was about to collapse.
Unfortunately it's still too late.
When they finally understood and looked up, they saw with their own eyes large chunks of steel and concrete falling down.
It seemed very slow, but it was almost instantaneous, and the figures of several people were submerged by the building.
The dust rose several meters high.
The twenty-plus-story building began to disintegrate, spreading beyond the scope of the land and falling downwards in a mighty manner.
Anjiu ran to the previous position, lay down and looked down.
There were countless slowly moving floating lands below, and most of them retained their original buildings, so she couldn't see if there were any survivors on them.
The first thing to be affected was a large piece of land for a football field.
Twenty or so students in sports uniforms heard the noise above their heads and ran towards safety screaming.
Just a few seconds into the run, building debris slammed into the football field.
One of the thick walls fell down along the edge, and actually lifted the land up suddenly.
The students, who were completely defenseless, were lifted high up and, under the influence of their own gravity, crashed uncontrollably into the steel and concrete.
In the blink of an eye, his head was bleeding and he lay unconscious on the bed.
The wall that caused the accident continued to fall.
The football field was suspended in midair and its trajectory was forcibly changed, floating towards Anjiu.
Her eyes suddenly lit up.
The land was too small now. If she encountered some special situations, she wouldn't even have room to dodge. Moreover, if another big collision happened, it would most likely break into pieces, which would be even more dangerous.
At the moment, the football field is large enough to serve as a temporary shelter.
Anjiu waited patiently for it to get closer, praying that it could float a little higher. Otherwise, if it continued in its current direction, when the two pieces of land overlapped, the height distance between them would be as high as three stories.
The snail-like pace made her anxious, and time seemed unbearable.
At this moment, several of the injured students below woke up from their coma, held up their bleeding heads, and sat up. They looked at their bloodstained clothes and were unable to react for a while.
It was not until they felt unbearable pain in their bodies that they recalled what had just happened.
Looking around, I saw my old friend lying on the rubble, his eyes closed, his fingers drooping, his chest motionless, as if he was dead...
As if they were pierced by these two words, several people supported their weak bodies and crawled away frantically.
The few survivors huddled together tightly, like a group of quails drenched by a rainstorm, and any slight movement would make them tremble with fear.
Anjiu finally waited until the football field got closer. Although the height was not as shorter as she prayed, if she missed this opportunity, it would be hard to say when she would meet it again!
She summoned the space, stretched it as long as possible, found a place on the stone steps where she could fix it, used the space as a rope, tied it tightly, and then tied the other end around her waist.
At this moment, she was scratched by the hard object in her pocket, and suddenly remembered that it was Pu Huai who secretly put it in her pocket before he left.
When I took it out, I found it was a master key.
As for why she knew it, it was actually because the word "universal" was written on it.
After putting it into the space, Anjiu walked to the edge, and while the ground below was still flat, he made up his mind and jumped down.
"Someone's coming down!"
The students stared in amazement as she jumped from a high altitude without any protection.
"It's so high, isn't she afraid of falling to her death..."
"But she is alive! Maybe, maybe she can help us."
"How can I help? Everything that can be seen with the naked eye has become like this. Where is the land?"
Under the sad gaze of the students, Anjiu rolled to the ground.
She stood up, brushed off the fake grass leaves on her clothes, looked at them briefly, and then set her sights on the backpacks piled by the goal.
When I walked over, I found that a whole can of mineral water was entangled with the net - otherwise it would have flown out when the ground was lifted up.
Anjiu picked up a bottle, unscrewed it and drank it.
The students came over, supporting each other. Perhaps because they were all of similar age, they were not too wary and asked:
"Where did you float from?"
"Have you been affected as well?"
"Did you see any land on the way here?"
"Where is the rescue? When will it arrive?"
