Chapter 681: Chapter 548 Outbreak_3
But the progress of the evacuation of the operational staff reached only sixty-three percent, and that was after everything had been abandoned.
It really confird what Spade had said, even ten hours wouldn’t be enough.
“Lord Li Ruiqi, there’s only half an hour left, and the evacuees in the outer areas have started panicking again, many are sending inquiries. They’re asking if there’s a plan to extend the deadline because there isn’t enough ti left,”
asked an operator in a panic.
“What a joke, who’s talking about any plans for extension, five hours is already the limit,”
Spade replied sternly before Li Ruiqi could speak, fearing that Li Ruiqi might soften.
Li Ruiqi’s face turned ashen, he shook his head and said,
“There’s no extension plan.”
At that mont, a sinister light flashed through Augustus’s eyes as he suddenly said to Putmi, “Lord Putmi, announce to the public that the evacuation ti is extended by another two hours.”
“Lord Augustus, what are you doing?”
Putmi was stunned.
Li Ruiqi’s and Spade’s expressions changed as well.
Augustus said darkly, “Just make the announcent, but in half an hour, leave as planned. Anyone who dares to leak even a whisper of information, kill without rcy!”
Putmi imdiately realized that such an announcent would at least prevent chaos and maximize the evacuation of personnel.
But this announcent was also a sweet poison.
Because as the announcer, he would inevitably bear the infamy and the bla.
“What are you waiting for!”
Augustus glared at Putmi.
“Understood!”
Putmi replied through gritted teeth.
Imdiately after, Augustus turned to the operator and asked, “How is the evacuation of the Military Departnt personnel?”
“Most of the Military Departnt’s personnel have been evacuated, only those maintaining order are left.”
“Have them evacuate too, just announce it as a shift change. There will be new personnel taking over their duties in maintaining order,”
said Augustus, showing his shrewd and indirect approach.
In hangar G3, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue sat quietly inside the Biological Cabin, waiting.
At that mont, the broadcast suddenly broke the silence.
“Latest plan: because many personnel have not yet returned, Deputy Captain Putmi of the Black Brilliance made an imdiate decision to extend the shelter ti by another two hours…”
…
Upon hearing the ssage,
Su Mo was montarily taken aback. What was happening? Another delay?
This was not the original plan.
Qian Chengxue, however, took a long sigh of relief, saying gratefully, “Good, they’ve extended the departure ti. Waiting another two hours will probably save more people.”
“No, there’s sothing wrong with this,”
Su Mo stated resolutely.
“Why?”
Qian Chengxue looked at Su Mo, puzzled.
“The evacuation ti was set by , Li Ruiqi, and a few others. We nearly ca to blows over it. The first delay was already a gamble. If there’s another, it would be playing jokes with our own lives. Also, listen closely to the broadcast. Since when can Putmi make such a significant decision?”
Su Mo’s brows were deeply furrowed.
“You an, this delay is a false ssage?”
Qian Chengxue quickly caught on.
“There’s no other possibility,”
Su Mo answered with certainty.
Qian Chengxue looked at her phone for the ti and said, “According to the original plan, we have twenty-seven minutes left.”
“Wait and see,”
Su Mo replied with an uneasy feeling in his heart.
In the starry sky, the many civilian operators who were returning all received the latest ssage.
“Because there’s not enough ti for evacuation, and many have not left, Deputy Captain Putmi of the Black Brilliance has issued a special order to extend the evacuation ti by another two hours. Black Brilliance will not abandon any mber. May the Federation’s light shine upon everyone.”
“Notice: The order-maintaining guard squad will rotate, and during this period, any behavior that violates order will be considered a breach, and serious offenders will be ejected from the ship. Please follow the boarding order, do not cause any disturbances,”
said the ssage.
The once anxious people burst into cheers upon seeing this information.
“I knew Black Brilliance wouldn’t abandon us!”
“That’s great.”
“Saved, thank goodness, two hours is enough for to rush back and board the ship.”
“Lord Putmi is so wise!”
…
The public channel in the entire area was filled with cheers and excitent.
The sowhat chaotic order quickly returned to normal.
When there was ample ti to save lives, people were willing to follow rules.
Ti slowly ticked away.
In the Black Brilliance Command Room, Li Ruiqi looked at the countdown clock that now showed 2 minutes and 59 seconds.
2 minutes and 58 seconds!
…
Li Ruiqi, with a contorted expression, waved his hand.
“All propulsion systems begin energy output, prepare for ignition of the drive unit.”
All present, with complicated emotions, began entering various commands.
“Activate State 2 of the hibernation power engine.”
“CSW-02 type nuclear fusion power engine number 2 starting preheating.”
…
“Cut all unnecessary energy output.”
“Shutting down lighting system.”
Click
In an instant, inside the Black Brilliance, many of the lighting fixtures went off, and what was dayti turned into night.
Every household lost power.
The evacuating civilians were stunned.
“What’s happening?”
“Shutting down the gravity system.”
In an instant, everyone’s bodies began to float…
…
At this ti, the countdown also began.
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3.
2.
1.
Zero.
As the countdown hit zero, Li Ruiqi shouted.
“Seal all passageways, ignite the drive unit, let’s depart!”
In the starry space, the Transportation Ships and chas preparing to enter the Black Brilliance suddenly found each of the entry points…
