My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 896

Chapter 896 It Has To Be Me

Ashlyn's voice was stained with sheer urgency.

Although the distance felt negligible right then, it would take time were they to go around the mountain to the other side.

She had taken a look at the map previously and knew that a flash flood had broken out on the other side of the mountain. In fact, they had initially planned on closing up that thirty-centimeter gap.

If they didn't do so, the intense water pressure would gradually rupture the crevice, leading to a massive flash flood. Not only would the waters submerge all the villages below, but also the tents they built on the mountainside.

However, reality had proven that someone was behind the mountain.

If they were to circle over, the person would probably have long since perished, either swept away by the currents or stopped breathing.

There was no time to lose.

Immediately, Lucas ordered, “Break the mountain wall and save him!”

“If we do so, Boss, what about those below the mountain and in the tents? Are we going to sacrifice everyone for the sake of a single person?” Spencer asked anxiously, wiping the rain off his face.

Out of the blue, Cassandra charged over while brandishing a shovel. “Leave it to me! Making a gap of about sixty centimeters will be enough. After that, we'll quickly block it again.”

With a bang, the shovel struck the rock and emitted a grating sound.

Compared with the mountain wall, the shovel was still too fragile at the end of the day, for it snapped.

As Spencer witnessed that, his lips inexorably twitched.

Uh... What kind of supernatural strength does she have? She looks sweet, but she's a bit too strong, isn't she?

Cassandra, who possessed supernatural strength, eyed the handle of the shovel in her hand in disappointment. “What the hell? Is this for real? It split into two!”

Ashlyn cast her a glance. “Stop dragging your feet here. Didn't we bring a jaw crusher along? Hurry up and don't waste time. Widen this gap, quick.”

A few men promptly ran over with a jaw crusher and aimed the sharp drill at the hard rock. In the next second, the machine started whirring.

While observing the flow of the water, Lucas instructed a few men to take the rescued villagers someplace safe.

“They're very weak at the moment, so bring them back for treatment posthaste.”
