Chapter 1410: Chapter 826: Perilous Rainfall! (Part 2)

Four walls, a door in the middle.

But just as he opened the door, the wind forcefully pressed his entire body towards the door.

Bang!

After the door was opened, it was slammed against the wall by the wind, leaving his entire body hanging on the door.

He gripped the door handle and the door frame tightly.

Neck veins bulging.

His whole body dangled by the door, legs swinging up and down in the wind.

With all his strength, he clawed towards the wall by the side of the door.

His eyes were almost forced shut by the wind.

Squeak!

A heavy sofa in the living room was blown, then started to move towards his room.

The wind was too strong; it was already very difficult for him not to be blown away.

One minute later.

Just as he could barely hold on, thinking he was bound to die.

Clang!

The sofa was blown over.

Heavily fell at the door of the room, but because the sofa was too large, it couldn’t pass through the door, instead blocking the wind for him.

The wind suddenly lessened.

His whole body fell heavily from mid-air.

His expression lit up with joy, but he hadn’t yet had time to rejoice.

He crawled into the bathroom forcefully like a dead dog.

He also brought the bathroom door closed.

Thud!

He successfully closed the bathroom door.

The bathroom had no glass windows, only a broken exhaust fan.

But this enclosed space gave him unparalleled safety.

After entering the bathroom, he didn’t stop, turned to lock the bathroom door, then hurriedly moved away from the door, leaned against the thick wall behind him, and his body slowly slid to the ground.

Breathing heavily in gasps.

Adrenaline peaked, heart rate accelerated.

"Almost, almost."

Brother Dong’s eyes were full of fear. He didn’t know what was happening outside the window, he was curious, but he didn’t dare to be curious.

He didn’t dare to approach the window.

In such a huge typhoon, just stepping out of the bathroom could mean being blown away by the wind.

Sweat poured like rain, soaking his injured arm.

"Hiss——"

A sharp pain shot from his arm, the wound that had been ignored earlier was now being scorched by the salt from the sweat, making him extremely uncomfortable.

The dim bathroom.

Outside, the fierce wind roared, sharp enough to instill fear just by hearing it.

Soon, he suddenly felt his bottom becoming wet, running his hands over the floor.

Only then did he realize the rain had whistle in through the door crevice from outside.

What he didn’t know was that the top-floor suite he was in looked like it had been bombarded by grenades - broken glass everywhere, even the walls had cracks.

The room he was in, the bathroom was near the door.

On the left was a surrounding wall, taking most of the wind for the bathroom door.

Yet.

He looked at the door rattling in the wind, feeling worried, unsure of how long the door could hold.

.......

The range of this typhoon covered several thousand kilometers.

At this moment, it was merely the outer edge that had arrived.

...

Thunder exploded.

Xiangtan.

In the basement of a building.

"Water’s flooding in, water’s flooding in!"

Along with a scream, a group of people dashed from the underground parking lot towards the stairs.

The rainwater below filled up, rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This group consisted of fifteen people.

One man complained: "I told you not to hide in the basement, during the last flood, if we hadn’t run to the rooftop, we all would have drowned."

Another man in a security uniform snorted and then said: "Ha! Then go ahead, go upstairs then."

Afterward, he opened the door to the first-floor stairway.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh——

A rush of wind blew in, making the people in the hallway stumble.

"Are you crazy? Hurry and close the door."

"What the heck! Close it fast."

"Damn!"

...

The man wearing a security uniform smiled, then forcefully pushed the door shut.

The corridor returned to silence.

Everyone fell silent.

They definitely couldn’t go upstairs; the higher they went, the stronger the wind became, and the glass above the third floor had been shattered by the wind.

However, they couldn’t go downstairs either.

The rainwater was flooding in below, and the water level was rising higher and higher. Stuck in this limbo, they didn’t know what to do.

Since the Doomsday broke out, without maintenance for the city’s large drainage systems, flooding often occurred.

Whenever it rained heavily, in some of the city’s lower areas, it could submerge two or three floors at the least, and five or six floors at the most. Once, there was even a massive flood that directly submerged buildings up to over ten floors.

Listening to the howling winds outside, their faces turned ashen.

This time, it seemed they were truly doomed.

.......

Xiangxi.

On Wuling Mountain.

In the mountains, the wind was blocked by the high peaks, and its strength was greatly reduced.

But on this cliff-ringed summit, many problems persisted.

The typhoon, though greatly diminished from its coastal might, still posed a disaster for these survivors in the forested mountains.

In the fierce wind, their mobility was already limited. They could only build wooden huts using the most primitive methods and mix mud with dried leaves and grass to pile up walls.

But in this Level 10 typhoon, it relentlessly blew down their wooden huts.

Compared to the coastal areas directly hit by the fiercest hurricane, where the typhoon could reach thirty levels if calculated by speed, though the maximum level of a typhoon is usually only 17. So thirty levels was just a crude and unrealistic calculation.

But even on the fringe of the typhoon, this Level 10 typhoon was already making it difficult for them to withstand.

The cries of babies, the shouts of men and women, and wails could be heard.

Yet in the thunderstorm, these sounds were drowned out.

The typhoon was merciless.

Sawdust filled the sky, scattering over the cliffs.

At a site where a wooden hut had been blown apart, a man and a woman cried bitterly. This had been the most painstakingly built house yet.

But just three days after its completion, it had been swept away by the typhoon.

The typhoon raged.

They embraced and sobbed, and then a large tree was uprooted by the wind, crashing heavily in their direction.

.....

An hour earlier.

Big Camphor Tree Base.

After ordering everyone to stay indoors, Li Yu remained in the duty room, observing the changes of the typhoon outside.

The gate below the wall was tightly shut.

The main gate weighed several tons.

Yet at this moment, it was clattering violently in the wind.

After receiving Bai Wenyang’s group, Xiao Jun had them checked, staying in Weng City for five minutes.

Then they were sent to the Third Outer City.

The rain in the sky changed from sparse to dense.

It beat against the roof of the greenhouse with a rattling sound.

At this moment, the wall surrounding the entire Big Camphor Tree Base was like a sturdy fortress, blocking the wind.

But the wind was omnipresent, and inside the vast Inner City, fist-sized stones were swept up by the wind, crashing loudly against the buildings.

Throughout the entire Big Camphor Tree Base, aside from a few personnel hiding in the guard rooms along the wall, everyone else was taking shelter within various buildings in the base.

Others had all entered the Big Camphor Tree Base’s underground growing chambers.

People from the villa area went to the second underground floor.

Suddenly, Li Yu saw a tree outside the wall being uprooted by the wind, flying towards the base.

Bang!

It crashed against the wall of the base.

Li Yu’s pupils slightly contracted.

Soon after, news came from Li Tie in the West Gate duty room that the wind had blown the door off the duty room.

Fortunately, the duty room connected vertically, with many weapons stored not on the top floor but in the middle.

Upon hearing this, Li Yu realized that this typhoon significantly impacted the inland, mountain-surrounded Big Camphor Tree Base, and issued an order that had never been given since the base’s establishment.

Everyone, evacuate the walls.

Everyone, return to the buildings.

This included some personnel Li Yu had tasked with emergency handling to prevent zombies from being blown in.

Because the wind had exceeded his expectations.

Even inland, the wind was still fierce.

Upon hearing the order, everyone began descending from the duty rooms. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

They didn’t go through the walls but descended directly through the passageways within the duty rooms.

Each duty room’s personnel tied ropes around one another to avoid being blown away.

Yet, when they came down from the wall, they astonishingly found the wind along the foot of the wall much weaker.

So they gradually returned indoors along the wall’s foot.
