Chapter 478 [Warehouse, broken pot, blanket, and little girl]
Chen Nuo: "…………"
He stared at the deer carefully, his eyes full of disbelief, and then in an instant, he made a decision!
call out!
Before the electric light in Lu Xixian's hand fell, the two people, stacked on top of each other like horses, disappeared from the place at the same time!
·
Chen Nuo's "Teleport" skill was activated, and Lu Xixi, along with him, moved dozens of kilometers away in an instant!
puff……
In the cold and dark water, two figures appeared at the same time.
Chen Nuo, who was prepared, had already held his breath, and then at the same time, he broke free from the deer's thin hand and ran away like a fish.
Turning around and looking at Lu Xixi - Chen Nuo was even ready to save this woman who was afraid of water.
However, he was stunned!
The deer in the water was thin and looked at him coldly with squinted eyes.
Is there any trace of panic or fear?
Not only that, the deer twitched the corners of his mouth and waved his fingers lightly.
The cold sea water automatically separated within the distance between the two people in an instant!
Control water?!
When did my wife have such a beautiful ability to control water?!
The sea water separated automatically, and the bodies of Chen Nuo and Lu Xixian in the water were floating in the waterless air.
"Are there any more lies? You lying bastard!"
The deer narrowed his eyes: "You are dead! I will definitely kill you!"
Chen Nuo was a little confused at this moment.
Really...not Lu Xixi?!
The name is not...
What you like to eat is wrong.
Not even afraid of water anymore?!
Is it just that they look similar?
But this thought only passed by for a moment, and Chen Nuo immediately rejected the idea!
impossible!
This is not similar!
But they are exactly the same!!
The deer has already rushed over!
Chen Nuo took a deep breath, flashed again, and activated his teleportation ability again, trying to put a thin distance between him and the deer!
As the teleportation skill was activated, Chen Nuo flashed again! His figure spread out more than ten kilometers!
However, the next moment, Chen Nuo suddenly felt that he was hit hard under his left rib!
The deer's slender figure was very close, almost touching Chen Nuo, and a palm was already pressing on Chen Nuo's ribs.
Chen Nuo's eyes widened!
This...isn't possible?!
In a thought, Chen Nuo's body fell upside down, broke through the water in the sea, and fell to the depths.
The deer twisted its body and rushed forward, looking like a nimble fish in the sea. It quickly caught up with Chen Nuo's back, and a bolt of lightning fell!
Chen Nuo twisted his body, his mind cocoon blocked the lightning, and saw the deer approaching...
Chen Nuo took a deep breath, and countless telepathic tentacles quickly opened up, like a densely packed net that trapped a deer in it.
And the next moment, Chen Nuo was sure that the shock he just felt was true!
The deer was thin and disappeared in place!
In a flash, the deer disappeared under the dense network of spiritual tentacles!
Chen Nuo can be 100% sure that this is definitely not using abilities to act at high speed!
Because my mental tentacles have blocked all angles, the line has formed a web without blind spots!
The deer Xixi did not break through the net, but just disappeared on the spot.
So, this is...
Teleport?!
·
At an official institution in London.
"What the hell! What's going on with this movement?!"
The fluctuations on one side of the monitoring equipment aroused a staff member's surprise. He almost dropped the coffee cup in his hand and rushed forward crazily, pressing the buttons quickly.
A few minutes later, a supervisor in a suit arrived quickly: "What's going on?!"
"The sea conditions are fluctuating." The staff member looked strange: "There are fluctuations in the water conditions in the sea area 60 kilometers southwest of London. Our weather detection floats experienced a brief high-frequency response!"
The supervisor was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Where's the weather forecast? Is there a storm?"
"No." The staff member looked dumbfounded: "I checked the weather forecast and called to verify. It should be calm and no storms in that place now."
"So...an earthquake? There was an earthquake on the continental shelf, causing water flow?" The supervisor thought quickly: "We also need to rule out whether there is an equipment failure. Maybe...the instrument of the buoy is broken?"
"It can't be a malfunction!
The six nearby floats reacted at the same time. Depending on the distance of the six floats from the center of the energy fluctuation, the energy distribution of the waves also showed a very obvious diffusion trend!
It’s impossible for all six floats to break down, and the energy reaction that happens to react spreads out so evenly, right?”
"So, it's an earthquake under the sea?"
"I called, but I didn't feel the earthquake."
"..." The supervisor was speechless.
"I think you'd better report it. According to the display, whether this thing was caused by an earthquake or something else... it was like a big explosion at the bottom of the sea, causing the sea water to surge and react into a small tsunami.
The first wave will reach London's coastline within twenty minutes."
"so?"
"So, make that damn phone call! Evacuate the ships and people at the Thames outlet!"
·
Chen Nuo was forced into a desperate situation!
In terms of strength, Lu Xixi at this time is not as good as the Star Queen in 2002.
But it’s also a controller level!
And the most important thing is that her fighting skills are obviously higher than those of the Star Queen in 2002.
My wife is good at controlling lightning.
And the person in front of me... In addition to controlling electricity, he can also control water, and his control of mental power is extremely precise.
At the same time, what the hell...she can also teleport!!
This is space skill!!
Of course, even so, Chen Nuo is not invincible.
But the problem is...
Does he dare to kill him?
The deer in front of me was very thin, and the murderous intent was clear in its eyes. It struck again and again without leaving any room for error.
How could it be so cruel! How could it cost people’s lives!
Even if he can beat Chen Nuo, can he really kill a deer?
When two people are at the same level, even if their strength is different, one can attack without restraint, while the other is restrained and cannot even bear to seriously injure the other...
So it is not surprising that Chen Nuo was at a disadvantage and found himself in danger many times within a short time.
Chen Nuo has already received three heavy blows from Lu Xixi.
The ribs under the left rib were broken once, but he managed to heal quickly despite controlling his body.
Then he was hit by Lu Xixi's lightning whip. Although Chen Nuo dodged the vital point in desperation - Lu Xixi hit Chen Yanluo's Tianling Gai! Chen Nuo forced to dodge, but was hit on the shoulder.
The entire shoulder blade was shattered, and half of the arm could only hang down.
The controller's ability to control the body and recover at a microscopic level was pushed to the extreme by Chen Nuo.
But Chen Nuo knew very well that if he continued to fight like this, he would only become weaker and weaker!
"It's definitely impossible to kill...but if you're seriously injured, there's nothing you can do."
Chen Nuo took a deep breath.
After quickly retreating to open a distance, he quickly summoned something from the consciousness space!
In an instant, Chen Nuo's eyes suddenly changed, with murderous intent in his eyes!!
The sea water on all sides seemed to be rolled back quickly by tangible force, and Chen Nuo's body was suspended in the sea!
Seeing the deer approaching quickly to attack, a ball of power burst out from Chen Nuo's body!
The tangible killing intent, like the actual half, cuts the surrounding sea water!
Qingyunmen!
The sword of killing thoughts!
`
Under the sea, two groups of forces collided head-on, and soon the force of the collision turned into a potential energy similar to an explosion!
In the turbulence of the bombarded sea water, Chen Nuo could no longer see the thin figure of the deer. However, the rapid flow and huge power of the water quickly carried Chen Nuo's body away...
Chen Nuo's heart moved, and he suddenly realized the huge problem!
This huge wave caused a tsunami impact. How many deaths would be caused?!
Chen Nuo was hit by the waves, and his body was wrapped under the waves. He forcibly activated his consciousness space and searched out every remaining mental power...
Mental storm!!
Countless mental powers surged out quickly, quickly forming a huge cocoon of mental power!
After opening in the water, it is like a huge net, trying to catch the waves!
·
On the coastline southwest of London, at the outlet of the Thames River, the tidal walls on the coastline have experienced significant wave fluctuations.
On both sides of the coastline, both fishing boats and transport vessels were responding urgently.
A shrill siren echoed in the surrounding air.
Some passers-by looked up in surprise, while some shops and residents stuck their heads out.
However, the policemen wearing hats rushed over quickly, shouting sternly, asking the crowd to leave quickly.
The crowd ran back crazily...
·
Fire truck, ambulance, police car...
In the southwest area of London, more and more special vehicles are gathering here.
People on the street fled north quickly, and the police yelled loudly at the intersection and trotted while blowing whistles in an attempt to organize some order.
In a building on the roadside, there is a television still playing emergency announcements.
In the Thames River, the water flow has risen a lot visible to the naked eye.
The water pouring in made the buildings on both sides of the river look so small.
It was during this era that several iconic buildings along the Thames River had not yet appeared, such as the London Eye.
When the first wave finally hit from the southwest, a huge wave surged up along the coastline.
Then it spread quickly, poured into the Thames River, and soon spread to both sides...
·
The greatest luck is that the scale of this tsunami is not large. Under the momentum of the first wave, the incoming seawater only broke through the southwest coastline and entered less than two kilometers of the city.
Momentum ran out.
But that night, the entire city of London was destined to be sleepless.
·
Chen Nuo struggled out of the water and climbed up a drainage channel.
Then, he lay on his back, panting like crazy.
Next to you is the fast-flowing Thames River.
The first wave, forcibly held by the mental storm, offset at least 60% of its momentum.
After the second pass, the momentum gradually weakened.
Chen Nuo, who had been seriously injured by the deer, had exhausted all his strength and was lying in the drainage ditch like a dead fish in the ocean. He could no longer muster the strength to move even half a minute.
The water that spread ashore began to recede, and fell into the drainage channel on the river bed. The water on the land flowed down the river. Chen Nuo, who was hiding in the drainage channel, felt like he was in a water curtain cave.
After lying down for half an hour and regaining some strength, Chen Nuo finally got up, walked out of the drainage channel, and quickly climbed onto the shore.
The water on the road has gradually receded, but many houses along the street have been flooded on the first floor.
Chen Nuo walked in the water all the way. The water that was originally below his knees gradually became longer and longer as he walked, and the water line gradually became shallower.
In the houses on the roadside, you can occasionally see citizens hiding upstairs watching from the windows. A person like Chen Nuo walking on the road in the water attracted a lot of attention.
Chen Nuo naturally ignored it and passed by a supermarket whose door was washed away. Chen Nuo walked directly in and found two bags of bread in the store where the water was still up to his ankles.
After thinking about it, I took some bottled water, took off my clothes and used them as a bag, stuffed them in my arms, and walked out again.
After walking out of a street, Chen Nuo found a building that looked a little dilapidated and ran over quickly.
The warehouse was somewhat flooded, but because the terrain was relatively high, the damage was not serious.
Chen Nuo broke through the door directly and went up the steps on the left.
The upper floors of the warehouse were separated into several rooms, but they were all empty.
The entire warehouse was empty and obviously in a semi-abandoned state.
Chen Nuo searched along the room and quickly found some useful things in a room.
After picking up a blanket and wrapping it around him, Chen Nuo quickly found a stove and a pile of cinders.
I picked out a few larger pieces of cinders and put them in to light.
There was a small pot that looked quite clean. Chen Nuo poured water into it and put it on the stove to boil.
He dared not use tap water.
With the seawater pouring in, God knows whether the waterworks have been flooded.
At this time, don’t dare to drink water casually.
Bottled water is particularly important.
Just as the water was boiling, Chen Nuo's eyes suddenly moved!
After entering the warehouse and walking upstairs, Chen Nuo had already released his spiritual power, and the entire warehouse was enveloped by his induction!
But at this moment, suddenly, under the mental induction, there was a fluctuation!
·
The drain outlet outside the warehouse and the cover on the ground have long been washed away.
It was probably pushed open when seawater poured in from below.
At this moment, the sea water recedes, and the water on the road flows rapidly towards the drainage outlet.
Chen Nuo stood next to the drain. After hesitating for a second, he sighed, took off the blanket and hung it on the wall next to him, and then jumped down!
London is an old city, and the underground drainage system is actually very old.
That is to say, this place is a warehouse, and the drainage system is industrial standard. If it were a residential area, it would be impossible for people to get through the narrow drainage channels--rats would be the same.
Inside the drainage channel, after more than ten meters, at a corner, Chen Nuo found movement!
This is an inverted L-shaped drainage channel, but because there is a little space protruding at the corner, it becomes a subtle T-shape.
The space in the corner is not big, just about the size of an ordinary wardrobe.
When Chen Nuo rushed to the corner, he saw a small figure hanging there.
A jacket that had been soaked in water was taken off and tied to the arm. The other end was hung on a water pipe in the drainage channel...
When Chen Nuo arrived, this little figure had lost half of his consciousness, but the remaining consciousness was still doing one thing.
That hand held a stone and knocked it gently on the water pipe, making a sound.
·
After a while, Chen Nuo carried this little figure out of the drainage outlet and entered the room on the second floor of the warehouse.
He placed the little figure next to the stove and covered it with the blanket.
Chen Nuo looked at the boiling water, took out the bread, broke it, and threw small pieces into the pot.
"Speak when you wake up. Don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person." Chen Nuo didn't look back, but gently stirred the pot with a spoon: "Besides, I just saved your life."
Next to the stove, the little figure wrapped in a blanket shook slightly.
Then, he slowly stood up and stared at Chen Nuo quietly in the darkness - with a trace of fear in his eyes.
"Thank you for saving my life, sir."
British speaking with a very standard London accent.
Chen Nuo turned around and paused next to this guy.
A little girl, very young, she looked like she was five or six years old at most.
Judging from what he was wearing... he was clearly not living a good life.
"Where are your parents? Well...where is your home?" Chen Nuo hesitated and asked.
The little girl seemed more hesitant, but still answered.
"Right here, sir, this is my home.
Well...the pot you used belongs to me."
Chen Nuo was stunned.
"When there was a flood, I hid upstairs, but in order to pick up something, I fell down and was washed into the drain.
Fortunately, I grabbed a water pipe, took off my clothes and tied myself to it, so that I was not washed away by the water..."
The little girl told her story intermittently.
Chen Nuo frowned while listening.
Then he looked at the girl.
Very ordinary appearance.
A typical British man, with brown hair and a few freckles on his face.
Very thin.
The kind of thin person with bad yin and yang.
The look in Chen Nuo's eyes was like a timid kitten.
Chen Nuo sighed and picked up the pot of noodle soup that had been cooked: "Well...since this is your home, do you have a bowl at home?"
"Originally, sir. But when I was lying by the window to look at the water conditions outside, the bowl fell. I just wanted to pick up the bowl and it fell - I was drinking water at the time."
Chen Nuo had no choice but to get a ladle of noodle soup and handed it to her.
"It's hot, eat slowly."
After hesitating for a moment, the girl took a sip, then took a deep breath, blew a few times, and then drank it slowly bit by bit.
The pot of noodle soup was half full. After the girl took a few spoonfuls, she put down the spoon, shrank back, and looked at Chen Nuo cautiously: "Sir, I'm full."
"No, you didn't." Chen Nuo smiled: "You are just afraid of me, or you are embarrassed. It doesn't matter, you can eat all this pot, there is still bread and water, and I can make another pot
.”
"But I don't have money to give you." The little girl struggled for a moment: "If you eat something from you, just think of it as... the fee for using my pot."
Chen Nuo smiled and pursed his lips deliberately: "Then how should I count it if I saved your life?"
The girl's eyes suddenly widened.
It can be seen that she thought for a moment with a frown on her face, and then tentatively said: "I only have one blanket here, and... everything is here. This pot is the only valuable thing."
Chen Nuo glanced at the child, sighed, and reached out his hand to touch her hair. However, this action made the little girl immediately shrink back and look at Chen Nuo warily.
Chen Nuo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and retracted his hand: "I mean no harm."
After a pause, Chen Nuo asked: "What's your name?"
"...Louise."
Chen Nuo nodded: "So, Louise, why do you live here alone?"
"…………"
After the two people, one large and one small, looked at each other for a moment, the child answered slowly.
"My mother... left. Just a few days ago."
·
After spending about an hour chatting while eating, Chen Nuo successfully made the little girl named Louise relax her guard a little and tell her story.
The so-called mother is gone...not that she is dead.
But he really left.
According to Louise, her father might have been a sailor—possibly.
Because her mother is actually not sure either.
Well, if you put it this way, there are obviously a lot of stories in it.
As for Louise's mother, Chito originally hoped that the sailor would marry her, so she gave birth to the child after becoming pregnant.
The result is very cliche.
The sailor never came back.
And the mother is obviously not a person who has the ability to work and support herself.
Louise previously lived with her mother.
Not that I live in this warehouse.
The child’s explanation of the mother’s means of making a living was a bit vague—maybe she didn’t understand.
"She worked in the tavern, dancing for people."
Chen Nuo guessed that maybe not only dancing, but also drinking or doing other things with him.
Louise didn't live in a warehouse before, she had a home.
Although that home is not very good, it is still a house or an apartment. It must be very messy, but it is better than a warehouse.
According to the child, her mother may owe a lot of money.
Maybe it's because you have been in debt for a long time.
But after all, he is a child, a five-year-old child, and his memory of the past is not very clear.
Anyway, this mother left a few days ago.
He probably ran away after being forced into debt.
Or perhaps he collapsed under the weight of such a life.
Maybe she has never loved this daughter - Chen Nuo can basically be sure of this, because from Louise's description, her mother was not very good to her.
Then, one day, the mother went out and never came back.
Louise remembered that before her mother left that day, she gave her a rare hug and a kiss.
And told her that there were two pounds in the drawer of the cupboard.
Then the mother left with her bag on her back.
As for why this child appears here...
After the mother left, she didn't come back for a few days. At first, the child didn't pay attention.
Because based on past experience, that woman often doesn't go home.
But until one day, the landlord, creditor and others came to the house together.
That home is gone.
A five-year-old child is not sensible. She just naively thinks that those who come to her door are bad people.
Then, there may also be people from social welfare agencies or the police...
The child doesn't know.
Then she ran away and ran out.
Hiding in this warehouse - this place is where she occasionally comes to play.
That's it all.
·
Chen Nuo looked at Louise sitting there.
The five-year-old girl wrapped the blanket tightly and looked at Chen Nuo nervously and fearfully.
"How do you live?" Chen Nuo frowned.
"For two pounds, I bought a pot, the one you used." The girl thought for a while: "Also... I will go to the bakery and ask others to give me some bread that was not sold that day.
The blanket was picked up by me.
besides……"
When the girl said this, she hesitated for a moment, but she still spoke in a low voice.
"I met a friend... This friend would come and bring me some food occasionally."
