Chapter 664: Chapter 454 Convergence
The small transport aircraft in the sky pierced through the heavens like an arrow.
Although Dong Tianyu was seated inside the airplane, he continuously observed the situation on the water’s surface with his Divine Sense.
During the flight, Dong Tianyu saw a considerable number of survivors, either fortunate enough to cling to scattered floating debris or aboard small boats prepared in advance, wandering within the boundaries of Kyoto City.
He didn’t know why they chose not to leave the place and insisted on staying there.
Seeing the scant supplies on their boats or beside them, one could only wonder how long they could last if things continued this way.
At that moment, Dong Tianyu, for some reason, felt his once hardened heart soften considerably. He promptly took out the preserved snack foods he had stored in his Storage Space before the disaster and opened the transportation channel outside the aircraft, scattering the snacks just like an angel dispersing flowers.
As the small transport flew, the snacks fell along its flight path.
The snack foods dropped by Dong Tianyu came in large packaging, but were mostly filled with air and very light in actual weight. Therefore, even after falling from a great height to the water surface, the packaging remained unbroken. The snacks could either be collected or would continue to float on the water.
Though each packet of snack foods didn’t contain much, they were mostly deep-fried, which meant they were calorie-dense. To those who had gone hungry for a long time, these could definitely be considered life-saving food.
And while Dong Tianyu scattered the snacks in a straight line, the lightweight snacks could blow far with the wind. Although it seemed like they were being dropped in a concentrated area, they actually covered a wide space upon landing.
Dong Tianyu’s sudden benevolence did not last long. After scattering several thousand boxes, seeing only a few hundred boxes left in his Storage Space, he immediately stopped the distribution, pained by the loss.
Normally, each box of snack foods contained only six bags. While it seemed like he had scattered several thousand boxes, the actual number of individual bags was at most tens of thousands—a seemingly small amount, but if treated as a lifesaving food, it could last quite a long time.
It should be noted that the flood submerging the city was made up of ’rootless water’, that is, rainwater, as opposed to the heavily saline seawater which only made one thirstier when drunk. Rainwater could be consumed directly. Although it might be somewhat dirty, it truly could quench one’s thirst and replace fluids when ingested.
After flying for a while, Dong Tianyu finally spotted a large ship on the water surface. He hadn’t expected that the first large ship he saw would have the type-6 mark he had arranged with Ye Liuyun.
What Dong Tianyu and Ye Liuyun had forgotten was that even before the disaster, it would have been impossible to see a ten-thousand-tonnage ship like the one under Ye Liuyun even in inland waters.
Not to mention anything else, just the vessel’s draft alone exceeded some canals’ Main Avenue, making it impossible to navigate in normal inland waters.
Now, not long after the rain had stopped, the vast majority of large ships were under inspection to see if the hulls had been affected by the storm and whether they’d sustained damage.
Secondly, despite firmly refusing to let other people board before the flood, once the heavy rain stopped, they started to kindly accept the survivors floating around the ship.
If it weren’t for Ye Liuyun’s urgency to rush to Pengcheng, she might have made the same choice as everyone else by now.
After locating the ship owned by Ye Liuyun, Dong Tianyu immediately reduced the unmanned aircraft’s flying altitude.
The people on deck showed shocked expressions when an airplane suddenly appeared overhead.
Just as Dong Tianyu was about to call Ye Liuyun, her call surprisingly came through first. He pressed the answer button and heard Ye Liuyun’s cheerful voice on the other end:
"Dong Tianyu, is that plane hovering over the deck yours? Can it make a vertical landing? If so, I’ve cleared a section of the deck for you."
"Isn’t that a needless question? It’s not like you’ve got an aircraft carrier and the ship isn’t equipped with any Blockade Rope, so how skilled would I have to be to land the aircraft smoothly on the deck if it couldn’t descend vertically?"
"I knew it was you. The landing area is prepared for you; hurry up and come down."
After hanging up the phone, Dong Tianyu theatrically allowed the aircraft to descend slowly, then gradually landed it on the deck.
As the airplane touched down safely and its propellers on both wings gradually reduced speed, Dong Tianyu opened the cabin door and stepped out.
No sooner had Dong Tianyu disembarked than Ye Liuyun rushed over. Just when Dong Tianyu thought she was excited to see him and was coming to give him a hug that testified to their friendship,
Ye Liuyun treated Dong Tianyu like part of the background, completely disregarding him as she ran past and entered the airplane’s cabin.
Seeing Ye Liuyun’s actions, Dong Tianyu’s mood, initially uplifted, instantly soured. Just as he prepared to enter the plane to drag her out, Ye Liuyun had already emerged from the aircraft.
