That crack was like the gaping mouth of an abyss, devouring everything that approached it.
This was a mountain road, and the drop of that abyssal mouth was dozens of ters deep—a fall here would spell near-certain death.
As Wang Fan stepped out of the driver’s cabin, he caught a glimpse with the corner of his eye, which gave him so understanding of the situation unfolding ahead.
However, this understanding was barely comforting, causing his heart to pound like a drum.
Things that fell either hit his head, slamd his back, or scraped his arms, but he had no ti to care about these now; he had only one wish, or rather an expectation, in his heart.
"Damn it, I hope this isn’t it today! Co on, L5, do your thing!"
The massive crack continued to spread across the road surface, like a wound on the earth, daunting and terrifying. The asphalt road was shattered, with debris scattered everywhere, mixed with dirt and rocks.
At this mont, the raindrops were dense and heavy, with occasional thunderclaps; playing music in the car made it impossible to notice the danger.
Fortunately, the L5 automatic driving was truly an existence surpassing human driving in all aspects, not only detecting the disaster in advance but also taking effective asures imdiately.
Finally, when the motorho was still forty or fifty ters away from the crack, it halted just in ti.
Feeling the intense montum vanish, Wang Fan finally let out a long sigh of relief, and his heart hanging by the tonsils finally returned to his chest.
Only then did he feel the soreness all over his body and the trembling of his legs.
"Bo... boss, what happened..."
Zhuo Qianqian’s sowhat timid voice ca from underneath Wang Fan, who forced himself to stand up slowly.
Through the rain-soaked windshield, he could vaguely see the large rocks and earth continuously rolling down.
"We encountered a landslide, phew... almost didn’t make it today."
Wang Fan couldn’t help but have a tremor in his voice; human power seed so small in the face of nature’s awe.
"Warning, warning, a vehicle is approaching from behind within 500 ters, collision expected in 40 seconds, please host avoid by moving to the roadside."
"Warning, warning, a vehicle within 500 ters behind..."
"Damn it, you jerk!"
Wang Fan cursed furiously; isn’t this just endless misfortune?
He had just dodged a landslide, and now a car was approaching; if it hit him, his motorho could be shoved directly into a pit.
Grabbing Zhuo Qianqian in one swift motion, he pushed open the RV door and ignoring the torrential rain, he took her by the hand and fled to the roadside barrier.
"Wait here, hold onto the railing!"
This road was a two-lane one-way street, and Wang Fan took less than 10 seconds to get out of the car, instructing Zhuo Qianqian, and then quickly returned to the motorho, sharply turning the wheel to position the motorho across the lane!
Taking a tripod from a drawer, he swiftly ran out of the car and towards the rear, even through the rain, he could already see a car speeding in the distance.
No, not just one car, but several were coming at a considerable speed.
Wang Fan quickly set up the tripod on the ground, took two steps back, and began wildly waving his arms.
"Stop! Don’t co here!"
"Stop! Don’t co here!"
Zhuo Qianqian snapped out of her befuddlent, seeing the rapidly approaching cars and Wang Fan waving with urgency, her heart tightened.
Without further thought, she jumped back on the road, promptly climbing into the RV.
Rummaging through the chaos, she picked up her laptop from the ssy floor before jumping out of the car.
Her frequent exercise paid off as she quickly hurried before Wang Fan, hugging her laptop.
The laptop she cherished greatly was now unhesitatingly placed on the ground as a barricade.
There was a small USB lamp on the laptop, which emitted so light.
Speaking of the quality of Zhuo Qianqian’s laptop, it was quite impressive; it managed to emit a soft glow despite the relentless pounding of rain.
Seeing Zhuo Qianqian beside him, Wang Fan suddenly beca anxious: "Go back! It’s dangerous here!"
However, Zhuo Qianqian stubbornly stayed put, for the first ti not listening to Wang Fan: "We’ll leave together!"
...
Wu Qian drove his flashy Lamborghini Asterion on the highway.
Lin Mu and Zheng Yaoyang were also in the car, all three ready to go to Guangfu for a comic convention.
The car was playing dynamic music, and occasionally the three of them would chat a bit.
Looking at the strange weather outside, Lin Mu couldn’t help but complain: "Wu, the weather in your area is too weird, isn’t it? It changes from sunny to torrential rain instantly, which really leaves with no choice but to rant a little."
Wu Qian was indifferent: "It’s just a sprinkle, you get used to it. This isn’t even the heaviest rain."
Lin Mu extended a thumb: "Aweso, bowing to Guangfu!"
"Boom..."
A deafening thunderclap made the three shudder, provoking simultaneous curses, but they were unaware that danger had quietly arrived.
Under the torrential rain, the visibility range was very limited; they could see neither Wang Fan nor Zhuo Qianqian waving their arms in the distance.
"Crack..."
A dazzling lightning bolt streaked across the sky, illuminating the surroundings for an instant like daylight; using this lightning, Lin Mu, sharp-eyed, suddenly saw the scene of collapse in the distance and the two figures jumping and waving their arms.
"Damn!"
Lin Mu was instantly scared blank, nearly crashing ntally on the spot; he trembled, pointing ahead: "Gou... gou... gou..."
Wu Qian laughed and interjected: "Ole Ole Ole!"
Lin Mu instantly erupted, slapping Wu Qian’s head with a big palm: "I Ole your big-headed ghost Ole! Hit the brakes, damn it, hit the brakes! Hurry and hit the brakes!"
Wu Qian was baffled by the slap, his mind blank too: "Why hit the brakes? Which one is the brake?"
"Left foot all the way, right foot on the left!"
Lin Mu’s adrenaline pumped fast, allowing his mind to beco montarily clear; he didn’t keep chanting hit the brakes but issued correct instructions first thing.
As the distance rapidly closed, under the high beams, Wu Qian finally saw the reflective tripod in the middle of the road and sothing emitting white light.
Upon receiving Lin Mu’s directive, Wu Qian’s blanked mind instantly executed the command.
"Screech..."
The tires and ground made a sharp sound once more, and the three involuntarily lurched forward.
Luckily, they were securely fastened by seatbelts, keeping them firmly in their seats.
"Screech..."
The tires continued skidding forward on the rain-slick road, causing the braking distance to increase sharply.
The distance between the two sides kept decreasing, Zhuo Qianqian watched the approaching car, scared with weak legs but still stood firm, waving her arms.
Wang Fan, with enhanced eyesight, clearly saw the car starting to brake and decisively pulled Zhuo Qianqian back.
They were initially there to warn people, definitely not to use their flesh and blood to stop the vehicle.
"Crack..."
As Wang Fan and Zhuo Qianqian retreated quickly, Wu Qian’s Lamborghini finally ca to a stable stop after crushing the tripod and laptop computer.
His unusual action also affected several cars behind.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
Though due to the insufficient braking distance, these cars could not avoid rear-ending, but fortunately, the speeds had slowed considerably, except for the second car’s hood that popped up, the following ones suffered nothing too serious.
Seeing this, Wang Fan couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief, as dizziness and nausea suddenly overwheld him, causing him to gag.
This was just too nerve-wracking; he swore internally, never wanting to experience it again in this lifeti!
Wang Fan trembled all over, unable to resist secretly swearing.
