Chapter 305: Chapter 152: The Power of Nature (Part 6)

Gu Ji and Fatima boarded an old blue train.

The carriage was packed to the brim, a sea of people in the aisle stretching endlessly, bodies pressed against each other, forming a noisy, crowded flow, reminiscent of the overcrowded green trains during the Chinese Spring Festival travel rush, but even more congested.

“Move, move, move!”

“Keep going forward! Hurry up! Everyone’s waiting back here!”

“Waaa… waaa I want to go home!”

…

Gu Ji’s ears were bombarded with a chaotic mix of conversations, curses, and the cries of children, making his head feel like it would explode.

With the screeching sound of the train’s whistle, the carriage windows shook, rivers and mountains blurred past, indicating the train had begun its slow departure. The setting sun, half-hidden behind clouds, cast an orange glow on the water and walls, exuding a gentle halo.

If this were a lake, it would be beautiful;

But unfortunately, this was a city.

The train quickly left Gauhati, passed through Dis布尔, needed to go through a tunnel, and then headed straight to the disaster relief center, a journey of about half an hour.

As the first train reached its destination.

The barren land had been transformed by the government into a temporary relief center, with large tents stacked on the ground, waiting for the people to open them.

And in the process of unloading people from the train.

The long-awaited game prompt finally appeared.

[Objective: Successfully lead at least 2,000 people out of the disaster area!]

[Please choose your reward!]

[Endurance Boost (Medium)] or [Immunity Boost (Medium)]

These were options Gu Ji had chosen before, marked in blue. What intrigued him was that a natural disaster level would appear where a public health “immunity” boost was available.

Of course, it didn’t rule out the possibility that this level would include an outbreak of Infectious Disease.

Gu Ji glanced at the mostly shoeless Indians in the car. Should the flood hit, the lack of matching medical resources could easily lead to disaster-borne diseases.

Taking this into account, he chose the second reward.

Blue light descended, and the task refreshed.

[New Objective: Keep casualties under 400 until the central government intervenes!]

Damn.

So, the central government still couldn’t be bothered with Assam’s torrential rain disaster?

As Gu Ji and Fatima were responsible for accompanying the train, after all the disaster victims alighted, the two, along with government officials, returned to the train to fetch the next batch of victims.

And so, batch after batch was transported.

Night fell quickly, and Gu Ji kept pondering how to tackle this new task.

Fortunately, the transfer was proceeding in an orderly manner, and they could relocate everyone to the relief center before floodwaters disrupted the railway tracks. Once at the relief center, fatal incidents would almost cease. But to prompt central government intervention, the fastest approach was a two-pronged strategy: reporting to the central government by the state Chief Minister and exerting pressure through online media and public opinion.

Fatima saw Gu Ji’s worried expression and thought he was concerned about the disaster.

“Don’t worry, once the next batch of victims is relocated, half of the danger near the riverbank will be eliminated…”

“I hope so.”

Gu Ji replied absentmindedly.

Just as the train entered the tunnel, an ear-piercing scraping noise came from below, prompting the disaster victims in the carriage to lean forward with inertia.

The train screeched to a halt.

“What’s happening?”

“What’s going on? Why did the train stop?”

“Officer, are we in trouble?”

…

The disaster victims shouted one after another, some clinging to Gu Ji and Fatima, constantly asking questions, fearing something had gone wrong.

But Gu Ji and Fatima were just as confused.

He pulled out his phone, only to find there was no signal.

Fatima stood up and reassured everyone, “Please don’t panic, the train may need temporary repairs. I will go find the conductor to clarify the situation. Please stay seated, be quiet, and wait patiently…”

She turned and headed to the conductor’s cabin.

About three minutes later, she returned with reassuring news: Animals had strayed onto the tracks ahead, causing an obstruction. The relevant personnel were dealing with it urgently.

“What a scare, I thought we were trapped in the tunnel…”

“Don’t say such things, Shiva will surely protect us!”

Rumble…

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Gu Ji’s ears twitched, catching a faint rolling sound coming from behind.

Crunch—!

The rear of the train suddenly emitted a nerve-wracking metallic twisting sound, accompanied by screams, one after another. In the next moment, the carriage he was in shook violently, and with a crash, was suddenly toppled by a mysterious force.

Gu Ji’s face changed dramatically!

It’s a flood!!
