Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 98

Chapter 98: The Others
Who didn’t want to go to the official base?

But the problem was that the official base was located so far away from their place. Even if there were military people who came here, these were the military under the people from Business District’s Base.

If they didn’t want to come, they would not force them.

But if they wanted to come, they would only be escorted towards this Business District’s Base.

If they wanted to go to the official base made by the nation, they would have to walk by themselves.

Who would do that?

At least, not the Taylor Family.

If they have the strength to go out, they would have done that a long time ago.

“Dad, are there any medical equipment there?” Ciera suddenly asked. She felt really uncomfortable and it has been a long time since she did her medication. If this continued, she might end up dying first before anything else.

“There’s hospital there.” Mr. Taylor nodded. He had asked about this first when the military people come.

“That’s good.”

“Let’s go.”

“Yes!”

The family of four quickly go out and greeted the military people. They had to go as fast as possible. Of course, they used their own cars while loading it with a lot of resources. They wanted to trade these things with various resources from the base.

“Ciera, you’re also going?” One of the youth there looked at Ciera and his eyes lit up. He was one of Ciera’s suitors and had been trying to get close to Ciera for a long time.

Unfortunately, his family’s condition was not very good and Ciera didn’t like him that much. She would rather stay away rather than staying with him.

Ciera frowned when she saw him, but she still nodded politely and said, “Yes. Are you also going?”

“Yes. Business District’s Base is built by my uncle.” The youth grinned. “He said that he’ll give my family a preferential treatment.”

Even though his family was not very well off, his uncle was successful. When he heard that his uncle managed to build a base, the youth was excited. This meant that he would be able to live a comfortable life in the future.

“Really?” Ciera’s attention was immediately attracted.

The youth nodded. “Yes.”

“Can I…”

Mrs. Taylor watched as the two people were chatting at the side and ignored them. She looked at the destruction on the street and then looked at their car. At this moment, she felt that it was really bad.

“Can this car really pass?” Mrs. Taylor asked.

“Of course it can.” Mr. Taylor looked confident. “The military people come here with car and they have cleaned up most of the road.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Taylor’s eyes flashed.

It would be good if they could go to the Business District’s Base. While it was not the place they wanted to go the most, they could settle there for the time being and then figured out a way to go.

“Then we should go.” Mrs. Taylor steps carefully to the car, trying her best not to touch the dirty ground.

Even when the situation was still like this, Mrs. Taylor still behaved pretentiously. It was clear that she didn’t care too much about the world’s situation and still treated herself as the best person in the world.

Mr. Taylor’s eyes flashed when he saw this and he sneered. If it was not because of Mrs. Taylor’s family background, he would not have married this delicate woman. She didn’t know how to take care of him and only knew how to make trouble all day long.

Without her family background, she was nothing.

But thinking that her family was still quite powerful… Mr. Taylor took a deep breath and walked inside.

“Have you contacted them?” Mr. Taylor asked after he entered the car and pulled down the curtain to block the driver. What he wanted to talk next was not something for outsiders to hear.

“My family?” Mrs. Taylor asked back. She arched her eyebrows and smiled. “They have built a base on their own and said that they will send someone to pick me up in the future. All I need to do is to wait for them to arrive.”

When she said this, Mrs. Taylor’s tone was very arrogant. Her chin was also raised high as if she was the best in the world.

Beside him, Mr. Taylor’s eyes flashed and he nodded.

Even after the earthquake, their residence remained stable and nothing happened to them. No matter what, they were still staying in rich area’s district and the building was made from the best materials.

It could withstand various natural disaster.

The problem was that they didn’t have enough resources to stay here for the rest of their lives. There were also many people who lived nearby and came knocking on their door to look for trouble.

Rather than staying here and invite trouble to come to the door, it would be better for them to go out and stay in the Business District’s Base.

At least, temporarily.

“Good.”

…

Other locations

Bang! Bang! Bang!

There were many people who stepped forward to clean up the magic beasts that came out of the cracks. The current situation was not very optimistic and there were many people who couldn’t go out.

Among the group was Sophia and her family.

They followed behind the military and looked at the mess outside.

“Father, how long would it take to reach City A Base?” Sophia asked softly and hugged her dog, Melly.

She was scared.

But more than anything else, Sophia wished that she could reunite with her friends at the fastest speed possible.

“Soon, darling. Soon.” Sophia’s father looked at his daughter with pained look. He also wanted to go out as soon as possible.

If it was not because of these magic beasts, there was no need for them to suffer so much like this.

“Run!”

Hearing the yell from the front, Sophia’s father quickly steered the car and stepped on the gas.
