Chapter 58: No One Survived

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The volcano, which had been erupting for several hours, gradually came to a stop.

Volcanic ash kept falling from the sky, and the air became pungent.

The respiratory tract seemed to be affected, and a suffocating feeling came over everyone.

Monroe immediately ordered people to take the masks in the car, that had been prepared for emergencies, and distribute them.

After Mary put her mask on, the air in the car was clear again, and gradually her breathing became better.

However, the passersby outside who were watching, were not as lucky.

Some people suddenly fell to the ground with their hands on their necks, and some people immediately rushed over to knock on their window to ask for help when they saw that they had masks.

Monroe mercilessly looked away and ordered, “We have to break out of the encirclement.”

The car began to move forward, no longer standing in line.

The emergency lane was occupied, so they pushed aside.

The people and cars of the other groups didn’t care how much their cars were worth, they just wanted to leave.

Mary also didn’t look at the panicked faces of those people on the roadside.

She couldn’t help them now, because resources were limited. She had to ensure that their people were protected first.

Mary’s lack of kindness here made Monroe feel relieved.

Her previous behavior had made him think that she was too kind.

But now it seemed that she knew what was important and what was not.

Mary tried to recall the information about the volcanic eruption that she had heard in before and began to analyze it.

“The volcano hasn’t stopped completely. Now we can feel the magma eruption, the volcanic ash, and the poisonous gas.”

“But it’s said that there’s still a shockwave. We might have been too far away, so we didn’t feel it.”

“Apart from that, there’s also combustible gas. Everyone, try not to use fire.”

“There’s also mudslides, earthquakes, and tsunamis. Those would be the worst possible outcomes.”

“No matter what, let’s not get separated. The more of us, the safer we are. We’ll return to New York safely.”

Mary’s words made everyone panic, but there was nothing they could do.

After all, no one had expected to encounter such a serious natural disaster this time!

The car stopped again. They were almost at the location of the car accident.

At this moment, the radio in the car suddenly rang!

Sizzle sizzle sizzle, after a burst of interference, a clear news report suddenly came!

Mary took out her cell phone, which had two bars of signal!

Mary immediately pulled out her cell phone and dialed Herman’s number again.

However, there was still no answer.

Just as Mary was about to hang up, Herman’s voice came through the phone, “Hey, Mary, is that you?”

Mary smiled as soon as she heard their safe voices. “Yes, Herman. Are you safe?”

Herrmann, who had always been calm, sounded anxious. “We’re stuck on the road. We were hit by the shock wave just now, and many people died. Fortunately, we hid in the low-lying area. How about you?”

“We don’t have the shock wave here. There is just volcanic ash and poisonous gas right now. However, we went in the opposite direction, so we don’t know when we’ll be able to return to New York.”

“Go… go… how… to… Hello…”

The signal was cut off again.

Mary put down her phone weakly.

Fortunately, the news was still broadcasting.

Everyone was listening to the content of the news silently.

“According to the Union news agency, the sudden eruption of Mount Hearth was an absolute monitoring accident! Although it was only a small eruption, the impact and disaster caused is already incalculable!”

“Magma covered the entire park. Trees, animals, plants, and humans, were instantly robbed of their lives

“It is estimated that there are currently 3,000 species of animals, 40,000 tourists, and 5,000 workers residing in Hearth National Park. I’m afraid that all of them have been met with tragedy and no one survived!”
