I’m A Wasteland Giant

Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Entering the Air Raid Shelter

Translator: 549690339

Du Gang thought for a moment, walked in front of the TV in the living room, stretched out his hand with a little effort, lifted the TV. Indeed, there was a note inside it.

This was the place where his parents often left him notes, an unspoken agreement between them.

He unfolded the note and scanned it.

“Du Gang, the city leaders have asked us to go to the underground air-raid shelter, so we’re there!”

The message was simple, just one line. They likely held out some hope, thinking that Du Gang might retreat north with the Nanyuan Military District team and possibly come back to check, so they left this note.

“The air-raid shelter!”

Du Gang smiled, opened the note, and said, “My parents should be fine, they’re in the air-raid shelter, let’s head over there!”

Luo An City’s air-raid shelter was built a long time ago, the city authorities had always assigned specialized personnel to maintain it, so it was not surprising that it could still be used.

The duo quickly descended the building, sat back in the car, with Chu Zixuan driving again. He had observed closely when An Ya drove using his Mental Power and had practiced for several hours. Now, he was quite proficient.

“Head west first, I’ll guide you!”

Soon, under Du Gang’s guidance, the car traversed more than half the city, reaching the most western part, the old town of Luo An City.

Only the old town had such a thing, air-raid shelters weren’t present in the newly developed East Town.

Du Gang had visited the air-raid shelter once as a child. He knew there was an entrance in a clock tower. He and his friends had peeked through the door crack into a staircase leading underground, which they referred to as the Gate of Hell…

“How is it? Do you see anyone?”

Arriving by the clock tower, Du Gang looked at Chu Zixuan and asked.

Chu Zixuan shook his head, “No, this air-raid shelter is quite long, and the passage inside is inclined. I can’t probe straight down along the passage!”

Du Gang nodded, understanding that this meant there were definitely no people within several dozen meters beneath the air-raid shelter.

They reached the side of the clock tower, and found that the door had been bolted several times from the inside. The original staircase leading underground had also been covered by a metal plate.

“Can your Mental Power unlock this?” Du Gang asked casually.

Chu Zixuan smirked but didn’t respond.

Du Gang laughed, moved forward one step, pressed the door lock and shoved hard, “Click”.

A lock that even Black Beetles couldn’t break, was broken by his bare hand.

Plus, the locks here were clearly better than those in the school dormitory; yet Du Gang managed to break this without transforming.

Chu Zixuan raised his eyebrows, his heart fluttered.

Like Du Gang, he was also a top student. He calculated in a few seconds, the force the lock could withstand. He inferred that the force Du Gang applied was no less than one tonne just to push the door.

Without transforming, he had a pushing force of a tonne, this guy…

Chu Zixuan was seeing Du Gang in an increasingly inscrutable light, suspecting that he was the rumored Chosen One.

Entering the clock tower, it was deserted with nothing inside, except for a metal plate embedded in the ground. On both ends of the plate, there were handles, clearly placed there by humans.

Du Gang tried pulling, the plate moved slightly but didn’t come off.

He laughed, “It’s probably locked from the inside!”

Chu Zixuan nodded, “You’re right, I saw a big lock inside!”

Du Gang was speechless, realizing having Chu Zixuan around rendered his wisdom useless.

His intelligence level of 250 was wasted!

With some mental preparation, he stood firm, and then stretched out one hand, tightly gripped the handle on the plate, and pulled hard!

“Bang!”

After a loud noise, he had pulled the handle right off the plate.

“Shit!”

Du Gang cursed quietly, dropped the iron handle in his hand, and quickly moved to the handle on the other side, ready to pull again.

“Wait!”

Chu Zixuan stopped him, “You can’t pull hard, you have to use a trick. You have to catch the door handle off guard, and pull the lock inside off…”

“Bang!”

Before he finished speaking, Du Gang had already pulled off another door handle, looking puzzled, “What did you just say?”

Chu Zixuan shrugged his shoulders, helplessly said, “Nothing, let’s find another entrance, I can follow the underground passage with my Mental Power, I should be able to find…”

“Transform!”

Du Gang’s body instantly began to lengthen and expand, his bones and muscles growing massively in an instant.

“Rumble!”

The originally eight-meter-high clock tower was burst open, the previously tight and square structure was squashed and deformed in an instant by Du Gang’s body. One of the walls even collapsed directly under the pressure.

Luckily, while transforming, he had purposely controlled his direction, avoiding the fallen bricks from hitting Chu Zixuan.

“Shit!”

Although Chu Zixuan suffered no injury, he was startled by the sudden commotion.

“Haha!”

Du Gang laughed, lifted one foot, and stomped hard on the metal plate on the ground.

Take a detour to find a new entrance?

No way!

After a loud noise, the seemingly solid metal plate instantly folded in half. The original tightly joined floor now revealed a big hole that allowed people to climb in.

Seeing the entrance appeared, Du Gang instantly restored to his original size.

“Let’s go!”

He grabbed the folded metal plate and casually threw it aside, went back to the car, picked up Ma Li, and headed in.

The duo had walked about a hundred meters in the shelter when the one leading the way switched from Du Gang to Chu Zixuan.

Because after several turns, it had become pitch-black and impossible to see clearly.

Du Gang could convert his eyes into infrared or ultraviolet imaging, but everything appeared too monochrome in these modes which felt strange to him. He let Chu Zixuan lead.

About four or five minutes later, Chu Zixuan suddenly laughed and said,

“There’re people ahead!”

Then, they went down two very deep steps in the shelter, entered deeper into the ground, took several turns, and then finally, light streamed in from both sides of the tunnel. There was a lit candle placed in a wall. From the way the flame was flickering, they could peep out there was an air vent above the wall.

Having found the air vent, human habitation must be nearby too.

At the same time, there was another candle illuminating a small area a short distance away within the surrounding walls.

After another turn, a man lying on the floor appeared in their sight.

Chu Zixuan had already detected the man’s situation and said, “He’s fine, just asleep!”

Du Gang nodded slightly and quickly went forward to push the man lying on the ground.

“Umm, is it mealtime?”

The man woke up and yelled. When he saw the people in front of him, he frowned, “Who are you?”

They learned that the man had been mobilized by the government to come here two days ago. The food he brought was handed over for unified distribution. He was the night-watch and hadn’t slept all night. He was now catching up on sleep. Most of the other people had gone out for food and were about to return.

After obtaining the information about the location where the others were living, Du Gang and Chu Zixuan continued on..
