SRTT Chapter 41.2

“Now, we have clearly known that the Southwest Library has been destroyed by the flood, and the North Library is also in danger.”

“Look outside the library. There are still many dead trees there.”

“I hope everyone will think about it again. Even if we have to burn it in the end and erase the traces of thousands of years of civilization, we can do our best to make it exist longer.”

“Leave hope for our civilization.”

“Maybe one day the disaster will be over. At that time, do you hope that your children will all be illiterate and don’t know where we came from?”

“These books were written by our ancestors who traveled across mountains and rivers and experienced untold hardships. They hoped to leave us with survival experience through words and bring a happier life to future generations through observation of the universe.”

“Compendium of Materia Medica.”

“Essential Techniques for the People.”

“The Exploitation of the Works of Nature.”

Lu Ping’s voice was not loud and even a little hoarse.

Standing next to him were two soldiers who looked to be under 20 years old, with traces of frostbite on their faces and hands.

The crowd finally calmed down.

Ruan Ning asked the system: “What is Chu Dingfeng doing in there? Has he come out yet?”

The system said: [No, he teleported into the ancient book library and is reading a book inside.]

Ruan Ning felt helpless. She didn’t know how to teleport, so she couldn’t just rush in and fight with Chu Dingfeng.

If he didn’t come out, she wouldn’t be able to copy the teleport skill today.

Should she wait for him to come out here? But Chu Dingfeng could teleport now, so maybe he would just leave later.

When Ruan Ning was hesitating, the big man who had just spoken outside the wall stood up again.

Compared to Director Lu, he seemed more confident: “Everyone! What the director said makes sense, but isn’t it also reasonable for us to survive?”

“What he said was very beautiful. I don’t know how to say such beautiful words. I just know that there is hope for us to survive!”

“If we rush in, we can get warm and don’t have to pick up trash in this icy and snowy place.”

“Our loved ones won’t suffer from the cold.”

“Look at the frostbite on your bodies. How many people have committed suicide after being frozen to death? Can we still care so much?”

The big man yelled again: “Are you guys going to follow me?”

After these words, the crowd began to riot again.

Ruan Ning decided to leave the group first and act according to the circumstances.

Seeing that everyone was hesitating, the big man’s eyes became fierce: “I will play as a forward. As long as you follow me, you won’t have to suffer from the cold in the future!”

After saying that, he rushed toward Director Lu and the other two men with an extra-long machete.

As most people expected, the two young soldiers did not shoot. They did not dare to point their guns at the victims.

The result was that there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and the big man’s knife stabbed into the body of the soldier on the left.

The crowd was in an uproar.

Ruan Ning didn’t expect something like this to happen, or rather, no one expected it.

The big man yelled, “Their guns are broken! They are frozen! Let’s rush together.”

Some people in the crowd really started to move.

But they completely forgot that someone inside had just fired a warning shot.

The gun wasn’t broken.

Of course, not everyone was so vicious. Some people saw the soldiers being injured and immediately shouted: “What are you doing? We just want books and wood. We can’t hurt anyone!”

“Hurry up and shoot.”

“Hurry up and shoot to stop them.”

More than a thousand people were in chaos and confusion.

Some wanted to stop, some wanted to rush, and some wanted to escape.

Because Ruan Ning had left a step ahead, she had already retreated outside the crowd. She went around to a relatively secluded place and saw the big man throw away the knife and pick up the gun of the soldier who fell to the ground.

It turned out that he knew the gun was good.
