Apocalypse Invasion: Survival on the Infinite Train
With a loud splash, a massive wave crashed down. Ming Chu, who had just landed, bent her knees and lowered her center of gravity, managing to steady herself.
However, the others lacked her stability. Several people stumbled into her, others slammed into the railings, and most terrifyingly, one figure was flung right through the gap in the railing.
"Haohao!!"
Amidst the heavy, bean-sized raindrops, Ming Chu heard a shriek and saw a small body, likely only five or six years old, fall into the water. Her eyelids twitched; she grabbed a thick rope nearby and jumped in after him.
The sea was turbulent, but the depths were no better. The ship they were on was a passenger liner, similar in size to the cruise ship Ming Chu had used to escape with Professor Wang Rui in the previous world. Consequently, the relatively light vessel couldn't hold its own against the relentless, massive waves.
Furthermore, as the liner struggled to increase its power, several small whirlpools formed in the water.
Due to the gale and heavy seas, the water beneath the surface looked somewhat murky, but for Ming Chu, it was only a slight irritation. She could still keep her eyes open and track where the child had fallen.
It was that one glance that made her heart skip a beat.
The child had been swept under the hull of the liner. Because of the ship's forward momentum, he was not only being pinned down, unable to surface, but was also rapidly approaching the propellers!
Ming Chu already knew how to swim, and with her superhuman physical strength, she was as agile as a fish in the water.
She swam to the child in a few strokes. Although he had only been in the water for a moment, he had already choked on quite a bit of it, and the propellers were very close. Ming Chu didn't panic; she flipped over in the water, kicked off the hull to gain momentum, shot out from beneath the ship, and surfaced while holding the child.
"Over there, is there someone over there?"
People on the ship exclaimed. The rain was so heavy they could barely keep their eyes open, but Ming Chu was close, and the child was wearing a bright yellow outfit, making them quite visible.
"Was the kid saved? Wasn't that girl trying to jump into the sea to commit suicide just now?"
