Chapter 174 The World is Cruel

The two supermen were very efficient. Sufficiently safe rescue channels were opened up in many areas. In addition, those engineering teams that had been planning to give up and go off work because the projects assigned to them were beyond their capabilities also became much more active.

The rescuers, who had gathered together to lift the load-bearing column and were labeled "the beauty of humanity, the best rescue team in Tokyo" in the reporter's photo, finally stopped planning what to eat after get off work and persuading their families to move out of Tokyo, and demonstrated the professional capabilities they should have.

It’s not that they don’t intend to try, but they know that the so-called rescue from the beginning is a waste of effort, and such an area has no search and rescue value at all.

The machines cannot be driven in, and more advanced equipment cannot be transferred. Any effort made by manpower is in vain. Coming here and pretending to work hard is just for the sake of the government's public relations image.

Standing on the ruins, facing one desperate face after another from the little robot, I found that I could do nothing. I thought it would be better not to come. At least I could comfort myself by knowing that everyone in the ruins was dead.

But since I'm here, I have no choice but to endure the pain and continue working.

“Don’t they even have helicopters?”

Watching a seriously injured refugee being taken to the ambulance, Lu Mingfei took off his blue and orange fluorescent suit used to identify rescue workers and asked the administrator waiting beside him.

"Government helicopters were all sent to Osaka, and most rescue helicopters were donated by private individuals."

The administrator sighed.

Osaka is the territory of the Demon Clan and the families behind them. Now that their business has been completely destroyed because of Lu Mingfei, and countless industries have been exposed, the Eight Snake Families are busy mobilizing their forces to settle the accounts, and it seems that they really have no time to take care of these trivial matters in Tokyo.

After all, it is an existence that has been able to fight against the Eight Clans of Sheqi for so many years. Even if it relies on external forces, it also has sufficient size on its own.

This wave has consumed all the resources of the dark side of Japan, and the Snake Eight Families can be said to be a real behemoth in Japan.

Really, he can't even do his job well, how dare he lick the boss's bag.

If they send a few half-blood gangsters here to help, it would be considered that they have considered the disaster problem in Tokyo for a second.

'Perhaps I should give Li Ying a hint about the compensation issue.'

Lu Mingfei pondered for a while and felt that it was not a good idea to let the Eight Snake Qi Families take all the advantage. He couldn’t let these guys live too comfortably.

"The rescue department is also recruiting people like you to help. We have set up an additional reward mechanism. There are still people helping in many areas, but we are short of manpower. The rescue here is also difficult, so we have a lower priority."

Seeing that Lu Mingfei had fallen silent, the administrator thought that he had some opinions about the rescue team and quickly began to explain.

The aura this person displays when just thinking makes people feel involuntarily afraid.

"We all get paid, and we train very hard. If we have the ability, everyone wants to save more people."

This is true.

After all, those who can get a salary in Tokyo and those who give up are the very few who have money at home. If they don't optimize their own abilities, they will be optimized themselves.

"I'm not blaming you, I just think some people in the upper echelons are not human beings."

Lu Mingfei shook his head. This was something beyond their capabilities, so they couldn’t be blamed if they couldn’t do it.

And in his opinion, this situation is actually not bad.

After all, the world has not yet achieved universal peace like in the Ultraman world. Problems and contradictions in all aspects are much more acute. There is no authority to integrate the thoughts of the world, no improvement in quality brought about by social customs, and no abstract productivity that can restore a town destroyed by monsters to its original state overnight.

If the end of the world causes great turmoil on the earth, given the current state of the earth, all kinds of strange thoughts will emerge, the crime rate will soar, and it will probably be a chaos of demons.

This world is so cruel. After discovering the truth, ordinary people are filled with nothing but panic and despair, because they can do nothing but act on instinct under the pressure of disaster.

Those who are in a bad mood may just enjoy themselves while they can, while smarter ones may choose to stockpile supplies in advance.

The smarter ones would choose to stockpile guns and ammunition.

As the saying goes, my neighbors store grain and I store guns, and my neighbors are my granaries.

When a disaster causes social unrest and disorder, the other side of humanity will be completely exposed. If the disaster is not resolved, good people will either die or become bad people.

Lu Mingfei didn't want that to happen, so he began to use his own power to force the secret party to develop the power to avoid doomsday. He also didn't expect the hybrids to have the ability to overcome the crisis.

After taking the bonus handed to him by the administrator, he looked at Eiry, who was gradually losing herself in the admiration and praise of the rescuers, and decided to take her to eat something delicious later.

“Are there any areas you can’t handle?”

Seeing the administrator standing there awkwardly, not knowing how to respond, Lu Mingfei changed the subject.

"No, this is the lowest priority area. Thank you for your hard work."

The administrator bowed quickly.

To be honest, if no one came to help, he didn't know how this would end.

"That's good."

Lu Mingfei called Eri over, and when he turned around, he saw two familiar figures.

“Is this the last place?”

"Yes."

Raising his eyebrows, Lu Mingfei remembered that these were the police officer and the otaku he had rescued.

"Hey, why do I feel like there are so many ruins? I'm really exhausted today."

"Try harder."

Ida Sukeo was carrying a sports drink and an empty lunch box.

"Thanks to your strength, so many people have a chance to survive."

"But I only rescued one person just now."

"Even if we can only save one person, that's good enough."

"But what if there's no one?"

"At least you chose to save people."

Lu Mingfei walked forward with Eri.

"It is enough to make the right choice. The limitation of your ability is not your fault. Just keep this belief until next time."

"Ah, this super warrior, long time no see."

The otaku was stunned for a moment, then he remembered who the other person was and quickly greeted him.

This name is a bit embarrassing.

"Just call me Lu Mingfei."

Nodding to the otaku, Lu Mingfei turned to the police officer.

"Are you the ones who handle the other areas?"

"Yes."

Ida Sukeo responded with a smile.

"Now that my injury has healed, there's no need to occupy the hospital bed. I heard last night that the damage was severe, so I thought of coming out to help."
