Another World Mall

Chapter 516 Chaotic

"Evacuate! Go to the rendezvous point!" The soldier waved his hand, asking Clovis to move forward.

Clovis and Luci were able to maintain their calm, but the situation was looking bad.

While rushing out of the building, Clovis asked, "Has something like this happened before?"

"No." Luci shook her head. "This place is not prone to earthquakes, so I'm not sure what it is. The only thing I'm sure of is that the earthquake should be quite big!"

As Luci said those words, the ceiling suddenly fell down. Clovis immediately grabbed her and came to a halt, stopping her.

Right after they dropped, Clovis continued moving forward, this time taking the lead. His reaction speed was much faster, so it would be better to have him in the front.

Even though they were running straight, their bodies kept going left and right. They even had to support their bodies by placing their hands on the wall.

Clovis suddenly stopped as the ceiling collapsed. It wasn't just a single cell that collapsed, but the entire ceiling. The only thing remaining above them was just the roof with a hole in it.

"We're blocked." Clovis clicked his tongue and turned to the side. Without hesitation, he opened one of the doors but didn't see a window.

"We're stuck!" Clovis turned to Luci.

"There is no other way. We have to go back. There is another pathway to that side, so we won't find the window." Luci shook her head.

"Then, let's go!" Clovis didn't expect that the earthquake would be this powerful and last for this long.

As they came back, he kept waving to the soldiers while shouting, "Not good. This path is blocked!"

With Luci's help, the soldiers believed them and immediately informed the others.

They could see some walls collapsed and hit three people.

The last earthquake recorded, according to Skynet, was 40 years ago."

Clovis bit his lips. "Take care of that side for now. We'll regroup once the situation calms down."

"Alright." Kanaria hung up.

Clovis' expression turned pale. "With such a magnitude, won't there be an aftershock?"

Luci was still too focused on the patients, so Clovis had to figure out the situation. The commander should know about this, but he shouldn't bother him in this situation. Hence, he came a bit closer so that he could listen to what he was saying to his subordinates.

"Gather up the troops. We need the reinforcement from the rest of the military base. No matter what, we have to stop the beasts!"

"!!!" Clovis widened his eyes in shock. The earthquake was so big that even Reolf was rampaging, so it wouldn't be weird if the rest of the beasts would also come toward them.

"The 1st battalion will form the defense line. The 2nd battalion will help with the evacuation of the civilians. Ask the explorers if necessary. Tell them that right now, the base is the most dangerous place as well as their safest place. Tell the 3rd battalion to set up the perimeter."

The commander kept giving orders after orders as he needed. Eventually, he asked, "What about the headquarters? Have they sent reinforcement?"

"They are splitting their army. This place is not the only one affected."

"For fuck sake. Do they know this base is the most important front line right now? If we collapse, those areas will be impacted as well." The commander gnashed his teeth in frustration. "Tell them to come here quickly. If they don't, we won't be able to stop them. There is a chance that the Tier 7 beast will also be coming."

"Yes, sir!"

The people were running back and forth. Even though he had given all kinds of orders, there was one thing that he hadn't said. "Sir... What about the people on the way here?"

"We don't have enough manpower to do that." The commander gritted his teeth. "We have to focus our troops here if we want to even hold out the enemies."

Clovis' expression turned grim after hearing that answer.
