Chapter 473: Landmass
After he replied to Yao Ran’s question, the guard opened his waist bag and pulled out a small glass vial.
Holding it up for Yao Ran and Long Yu to see, he explained, "This is an ability enhancer potion. It can also replenish an ability user’s energy."
Looking at the identical blue liquid inside the small glass vial, Long Yu asked, "Where did you get this?"
"We are each given ten vials of this potion before every mission," the other guard replied.
Hearing this, Yao Ran suddenly realized something and asked, "Besides The Origin, where else can you get this potion?"
The two guards exchanged glances for a second before one of them answered, "The Ark."
As soon as he said that, Yao Ran turned to look in the direction where the convoy had gone.
"If you two don’t recognize them, then they must have a connection to The Ark," Yao Ran said with a frown.
The two guards nodded in agreement.
Seeing that the sky gradually brightened, Long Yu said, "Let’s wake the others and leave this place." Discover exclusive tales on Freewebnovel
"Yes, Captain Long." The guards said at the same time.
After that, the four of them went to wake the others. Once they had finished breakfast and refueled the planes, they left the plateau basin.
Meanwhile, inside one of the off-road vehicles, Du Zhaoyi said, "Give me the phone."
Hearing this, the man in a black combat uniform sitting in the passenger seat handed him a satellite phone.
After dialing a number, Du Zhaoyi waited for a moment before a cold but weak voice came through.
"Speak."
Du Zhaoyi raised his eyebrows slightly upon noticing the weakness in Gao Shuwei’s voice and asked, "What happened to you? Why do you sound so weak?"
Too lazy to waste words, Gao Shuwei coldly replied, "If you have nothing important to say, don’t call me."
Before he could end the call, Du Zhaoyi quickly interjected, "Why are you so impatient? Do you know who I just met?"
Gao Shuwei fell silent for a few seconds before asking, "Who?"
Sensing his curiosity, Du Zhaoyi chuckled and replied, "Your beloved younger sister."
As soon as those words fell, Gao Shuwei’s eyes lit up. He pushed himself up from the bed and shot a sharp look at a nurse who had stepped closer to him.
When the nurse saw his cold gaze directed at her, cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She hurriedly lowered her head and stepped back.
Shifting his gaze away from the trembling nurse, Gao Shuwei sat up on the bed and asked, "Where is she?"
"I met her in a plateau basin in Zhongyang Province a few hours ago," Du Zhaoyi replied lazily.
Hearing that several hours had already passed since Du Zhaoyi met Yao Ran, Gao Shuwei’s expression darkened. Sensing the chilling aura emanating from him, the nurses standing nearby didn’t dare to breathe loudly and prayed that he would forget about them.
Getting no response from him, Du Zhaoyi asked, "Why don’t you say something?"
Gao Shuwei knew Du Zhaoyi’s twisted personality and forced himself to stay calm. Once he had regained control of his emotions, he coldly ordered, "Send me the location."
Upon hearing this, Du Zhaoyi suddenly felt bored and decided to stir up some trouble.
With a smirk on his red lips, he lazily responded, "No problem. But, Director Gao, do you know that your beloved younger sister has a fiancé? They look like a match made in heaven."
As soon as Gao Shuwei heard this, he knew Du Zhaoyi was trying to provoke him. Ignoring his words, he said flatly, "I want the location in thirty seconds."
After saying that, without waiting for Du Zhaoyi’s response, he ended the call.
In the off-road vehicle, Du Zhaoyi clicked his tongue upon hearing the busy tone. "Tsk, what a boring man."
After saying that, he sent the location to Gao Shuwei and closed his eyes to sleep.
Beep!
A few seconds later, when Gao Shuwei received the location, he ordered, "Go and get her."
Standing at his side, his assistant replied, "Yes, Director."
At the same time, Yao Ran and the others finally left the plateau basin area. Just as she was about to transfer her consciousness to her space to care for the animals and farmland, she heard a deafening roar coming from behind.
Groo~!
Looking out the window, Yao Ran’s eyes widened in shock as she saw a massive wave rushing into the plateau basin, swallowing everything inside.
In mere seconds, an overwhelming amount of seawater flooded the basin, causing the unstable ground to crack apart. A gigantic sinkhole formed, swallowing the seawater and creating a massive whirlpool.
Yao Ran had no idea how deep the hole was, but the water continued to pour in, churning violently.
Sitting beside her, Jia Xiang watched the catastrophe unfold below and muttered with despair, "Can this planet even survive after this?"
Yao Ran heard her question but remained silent—she didn’t know the answer either.
After her rebirth, the future events she once knew had accelerated. Everything that should have happened after her death was now unfolding in less than two years. With disasters striking so fast, humanity had no time to recover or prepare, leading to devastating losses in population.
A few minutes later, Yao Ran tore her gaze away from the disaster below and said, "We need to fly faster."
Shi Xuan and Long Yu had also witnessed the disaster below and knew they couldn’t afford to waste any time.
After a moment of silence, Shi Xuan said, "Understood."
He then turned on the communication device and contacted the other pilots, instructing them to increase speed.
By the time they finally reached the location provided by Quan Yuanwei, ten days had passed.
Looking at the landmass ahead, surrounded by water and only half the size of her country, Yao Ran took out the map drawn by Quan Yuanwei from her space.
After comparing the land on the map to the one in the distance, she said, "That land matches the location given by Brother Quan."
