Since they had discussed their next destination, the seven naturally did not want to stay in the nuclear power plant and continue to be exposed to radiation.

  In fact, the nuclear powerplant had already become a complete purgatory at the moment. The fire caused by the explosion began to spread wildly, and sirens ominously blared one after another. Shattered glass flew everywhere……

  The seven soon found the stairs that led down and were about to run down the stairs when to their surprise, they saw the door of the room at the end of the corridor, which looked like a central control room, opening again. Three people wearing white clothes ran out. Two of them looked very young, looking like they were in their early twenties, and the person behind them was none other than the man who had escaped the reactor explosion with the seven of them. He was standing on the balcony.

  As they were quite a distance away, there was a lot of dust floating in the air. In addition, the three of them seemed to be a little unsettled. It was as if they had not noticed the players at the first moment.

  Hence, when the players saw this, they hurriedly retreated into the stairway. The youth and Master Kui looked at each other. The latter made a knock-out gesture. The youth nodded, but the players did not expect that the three of them would not turn around when they passed the stairway. They did not even glance at the stairway and just walked straight ahead.

  The youth was stunned. “What do you mean? Where are they going? There shouldn’t be any other stairways behind them, right?”


  He wasn’t the only one puzzled. The others were as well.

  “Could it be that they want to go to the reactor?” Although Master Kui said those things, it appeared from her expressions that she did not really trust this deduction.

  After all, it was understandable that the players didn’t know how powerful the reactor was when they first entered the dungeon. However, the man standing on the balcony was obviously an employee of the nuclear power plant. He also seemed to be in charge of the reactor. Judging from his frightened look at that time, it was impossible that he didn’t know what had happened.

  And now, he didn’t want to leave this place as soon as possible. Counterintuitively, he actually turned around and walked back to the reactor. Did he not know what was waiting for him after he opened the safety door?

  As if answering the players’ questions, the three of them really came to the safety door. They even seemed like they were preparing to open the door.

  “Are they crazy?” the young man in the Zhanfu who stuck his head out asked in surprise.

  “Don’t bother with their matters. Let’s leave this place as soon as possible,” the doctor said with a solemn expression. “If they open the door, the radiation will definitely rise.”


  As expected, everyone lost interest in watching the show. They continued to run down the stairs, and along the way, they met a few people in white coats. They were all workers from the nuclear power plant, filled with panic and confusion. However, they did not run out. Some were busy rescuing the injured, some were busy putting out the fire, and some remained at their posts.

  Regardless of what the nuclear power plant workers were doing, none of them wore any protective equipment. Be it protective clothing or breathing masks that could prevent radioactive dust from falling on their skin, they were basically dressed as they usually did at work.

  However, what was even more unbelievable was what the players saw after they ran out of the building.

  They saw that the roof of the reactor building they were previously in had been completely blown apart by the explosion. Half of the wall facing the road had also collapsed. Broken bricks, concrete, and some black substance flew everywhere, some still cindering when they landed on the asphalt pavement. The steel bars and pipes that were initially buried in the building were now exposed. A massive pillar of fire soared into the sky, emitting a faint blue luster under the effects of Cherenkov’s radiation.

  However, behind this beautiful luster was an incomparably terrifying danger.

  Without the protection of the protective cover and concrete, the high-intensity radiation was spreading from the damaged core in all directions!

  At this moment, the players only wanted to do everything possible to leave this radiation hell. However, the sharp-eyed Mouse saw a figure appear from within the ruins.

  It was the man who had been standing on the balcony. He had returned to the building where the reactor was located. He was climbing up the ruins, and below his feet was the damaged reactor core. At this moment, his body was enduring an unimaginable amount of radiation. His skin burned by the nuclear radiation became darker and darker, and his eyes swelled.

  He crawled using both his hands and feet while shouting something intelligible.

  “Who is he shouting at?” the teenager asked subconsciously.

  “His colleagues, I think,” Zhang Heng said. “Didn’t we see the workers of the other two nuclear power plants in that building? The direction he is heading to is the office where the two workers are.”


  However, the players only took one look before they averted their gazes. According to the Doctor, after leaving the building, the radiation doses they received would increase significantly. Considering the distance between them and the core, every second they stayed here increased their risks exponentially.

  This time, the maintenance worker ran at the front and rushed toward the door. Coconut was right behind her. However, after running for about 50 to 60 meters, Coconut let out a muffled groan. A chaotic set of circumstances, it was also in the night, and she couldn’t see the road under her feet. She stepped on a piece of construction waste and fell to the ground.

  Mouse, behind her, immediately stopped and helped her up. “Are you bleeding?”


  “It’s just a scratch. It’s not a big deal,” Coconut said. There was a black stone where she fell just now, which had grazed her palm. Coconut, however, didn’t take this minor injury to heart. Instead, she tried walking a few steps only to discover that she had sprained her ankle. She was limping a little.

  Then, the mouse and the teenager lifted her and continued to run toward the gate.

  “There’s a bus over there. Let’s get on the bus first,” the doctor said. He pointed at a bus parked not far away from the gate. The maintenance man got on the bus first before the driver waved his hands and feet in excitement, attempting to tell him something. However, he was interrupted by a punch from the maintenance man before he could say anything.

  Master Kui followed him onto the bus. He glanced sideways and saw that the maintenance man was holding onto the driver’s neck. The latter’s face was flushed red from holding his breath.

  “Are you planning to kill him to silence him?”


  “No, I just want him to be quiet,” the maintenance man explained; the muscles in his body tensed.

  In the end, Kui grabbed the driver’s hair and knocked the latter’s head against the iron handrail. The bus driver immediately rolled his eyes and fainted.

  “Now he’s quiet.”
