Global Apocalypse: The True Young Master Awakens and Tames the Villain - Chapter 48.2

Liu Jin’an was confused and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Zhao Simo, relying on his better understanding of Liu Jin’an’s new power, explained, “Your transformation can only last for thirty minutes. What if we take action later and the time exceeds?”

“It’s safer if I hold you in my arms,” he said decisively.

Duan Haiping immediately continued, “You are wrong. If someone had to hug him, you should let me hug him. I am his summon, and only I will spare no effort to protect him.”

Zhao Simo sneered. “You don’t have the ability to sense, so how can you protect him?”

“There is no need for these fancy methods.” Duan Haiping’s tone was full of disdain.

“If you think you can defeat all the enemies in the hospital, fine, it’s up to you,” Zhao Simo spread his hands. “But I can’t let Xiao Tiantian take this risk.”

Duan Haiping felt angry, and his eyes narrowed dangerously, as if he was considering whether to shut up the noisy person in front of him forever.

“Stop arguing. I’ll retreat as soon as the time is up. You don’t need me to lead the way anyway.”

Liu Jin’an was so overwhelmed by their noise that his head hurt, so he quickly calmed them down. “That’s it, the hostage rescue team, let’s go!”

According to Zhao Simo’s plan, they needed to seal all the dormitory doors first to ensure that the people inside couldn’t get out. They would take advantage of the patrol officers to put out the fire and rescue the hostages.

With Duan Haiping around, the task of locking the doors went very smoothly. Within ten minutes, all the dormitory doors were sealed, and they didn’t even need to touch the dormitory door.

“They held the hostages in three different places. The beautiful female hostages were held in the inpatient building, the doctors were held in the outpatient department, and other patients were basically held in the wards.”

Zhao Simo led the way and took them into the inpatient unit. Then he briefly described the problems they faced. “The sound of the elevator running may attract enemies. We cannot take the elevator to the ward to save people. The best way is to let them save themselves.”

He took the two of them to a hidden tea room. “Xiao Duan, I will strengthen your perception. You can try to see how far you can control it.”

After realizing the other party’s plan, Liu Jin’an frowned and objected. “Even if Xiao Duan can unlock the door where the hostages are held, the movement of the hostages escaping will attract the enemy’s attention.”

“We have set fire to the morgue to attract the enemy’s attention to the greatest extent. If they can’t escape, then there is nothing I can do.” Zhao Simo sighed. “We can’t go from room to room to rescue them. There’s simply no time, and the situation doesn’t allow it.”

So, from the beginning, Zhao Simo had planned to sacrifice some of the hostages to ensure the safe escape of most of them?

Liu Jin’an’s mood was a little low. He had really thought they could save everyone just now.

“Xiao Tiantian, you are so kind, do you want to take risks to save people?” Zhao Simo’s expression was a little playful.

Liu Jin’an shook his head. “Everything is based on our safety.”

The tragic situation in the morgue could at most make him deeply sympathize with the hostages. But if they asked him to risk his life to save others, sorry, he wasn’t that kind.

Zhao Simo groaned. “But I don’t want to disappoint Xiao Tiantian at all.”

Liu Jin’an looked at him suspiciously.

Then he heard Zhao Simo say confidently, “Don’t forget, we are not just two people fighting. The rescue team outside must do something practical, right?”

“You mean?”

“The return of your companions is my signal to them for a general attack.”

“Boom!”

As if in response to Zhao Simo’s words, a burst of intensive artillery bombardment suddenly exploded, causing the ground beneath their feet to tremble.

Zhao Simo injected all his sensory abilities into Duan Haiping’s body. Liu Jin’an followed suit and channelled his half-baked perception abilities to his summon.

Strange energy spread throughout Duan Haiping’s body, and he felt as if he had an extra pair of eyes overlooking everything. In his brain, a three-dimensional picture of the entire building appeared. Broken bodies, crying hostages, blood, and despair were everywhere.

“Found it,” he said solemnly, and immediately used his superpower to crush all the iron chains and door locks that imprisoned them into powder.

Done!

Liu Jin’an also sensed this scene, and he couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride in his heart. Although his summon had shortcomings, he never failed at critical moments.

“Xiao Duan, you are so awesome!” he praised from the bottom of his heart.

The moonlight was dim, and the base of Duan Haiping’s flat ears turned red, making it impossible to see unless someone looked carefully. However, none of this escaped Zhao Simo’s eyes. His ability to perceive things was much sharper than Liu Jin’an’s.

Duan Haiping seemed to be about to say something. Zhao Simo interrupted him. “Go to the next place, hurry up.”

Duan Haiping looked at him angrily and had to swallow what he was going to say.

With the assistance of Zhao Simo’s sensory abilities, Duan Haiping was able to accurately liberate all the hostages, even having the power to create obstacles for the enemy.

It wasn’t just Liu Jin’an who benefited from the spiritual treasure’s test. His abilities also improved by leaps and bounds, reaching level two. Manipulating metal was the nemesis of thermal weapons, not to mention Duan Haiping’s ability to perceive. It only took a little bit of superpower to destroy a powerful rocket launcher—so why not do it?

Finally, they unlocked all the rooms where the hostages were held, and the fire in the morgue had also spread to the inpatient department and dormitory building.

Zhao Simo had started preparations for today’s rescue mission early. During the process of transporting supplies, he secretly hid some combustible materials in an inconspicuous place in the building complex.

The fire was fierce, and although many people came to put it out, they had limited places to get water. Even if they smashed the water pipes and increased the water flow, it wouldn’t help.

Liu Jin’an was very happy to watch it at first. Gradually, he realized something was wrong. “What if the fire cannot be extinguished and burns down the entire hospital?”

“Who knows? It wasn’t our problem.”

Zhao Simo looked as if the matter had nothing to do with him, and his cunning fox eyes were filled with fire.

Until someone put a gun to the back of his head.
