The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 492 Yang Le is still on his way

It is not an exaggeration to describe the destruction caused by the giants as a natural disaster.

An entire city block was reduced to ruins, all because of a high-five from a giant. If it had happened in the past, Reed would have thought that this was a joke played by someone on him, but now it happened right before his eyes.

Reed was extremely grateful at this moment that the group of people who might be mercenaries or superheroes did not launch the attack in the neighborhood where they were.

If you look from a bird's-eye view, the street where Reed is located and the one that has become ruins are connected to form an L shape. Reed and his friends are at this end, Thompson and his friends are at the other end, and the giant that Robert has turned into is at the corner.

However, although they did not suffer a direct attack, the neighborhood where Reed and Susan were located was affected a little because they were too close. Cracks appeared on some buildings, and the car where Reed and Susan were hiding also overturned.

Fortunately, he and Susan only had some minor scratches, but the car that they had finally found and started was obviously unusable.

Reed couldn't help but feel annoyed. Was he cursed? Why did every vehicle he handled today either run out of gas or break down?

Reed calmed himself down. Now was not the time to think about probability problems. They had to escape from here quickly. The giant transformed by the latecomer was much more powerful than the ones they had encountered before.

At Reed's signal, Susan tiptoed out of the overturned car, then half-knelt at the door and pulled Reed. The two did not act rashly and tacitly chose to wait for an opportunity behind the cover.

"We need to find Ben and the others," Susan signed to Reed.

"I know." Reed responded to Susan. Ben and Johnny also fled into this street when they were being chased. If they were lucky, they should still be alive.

But after seeing the destructive power of the giant, Reed felt that the possibility was really small, but facing his best friend and brother-in-law, Reed was willing to gamble on that small probability.

But the key issue now is how they are going to find those two people. The giant is standing near the intersection. It would not be a good thing if they were discovered by him. First of all, this is not a horror game, so there is no option to start over if failed.

So Reed had to plan before he could act. He had to first find out the exact location of Ben and Johnny, and then plan a route to take the two of them. The four of them then quickly left this hellhole.

Just as Reed was thinking of a solution, Susan took out her cell phone from her shirt pocket and started operating it.

Reed was puzzled and quickly used sign language to ask Susan what she was doing, and told her that it was irrational to rely on the ringing tone of the phone to find someone at this time, and that this behavior would kill everyone.

Susan rolled her eyes at De, and replied in sign language: "I installed a tracking device on Johnny."

"?" Reed tilted his head and suddenly felt that his fiancée in front of him was a little scary.

In fact, Susan installed a tracker on Johnny for a reason, but the situation was urgent and she had no time to explain it. It was also too troublesome to explain it in sign language, so Susan decided to talk about it later.

Praying that the tracker would not break, Susan nervously opened the homemade app, which displayed the tracker's location in real time. Seeing the flashing green dot on the radar map, Susan almost cried for joy.

Susan showed Reed the radar map, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Although he couldn't be completely sure whether the two were alive, at least he knew their location. Reed estimated their location based on the radar map, then quietly peeked out to observe the surrounding environment and found that the location shown on the radar should be the flower shop across the street.

Although the flower shop had two floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides of the door instead of ordinary walls to facilitate the display of bouquets, and the glass of the windows had long been shattered, the bouquets, flower pots and other items inside were lying on the ground in a twisted manner. Coupled with the dim light in the evening, Reed could not see the specific situation inside the flower shop.

So Reed and Susan still couldn't be sure that Johnny and the other man were inside.

This meant that Reed still had to go and check it out, or at least stand at the door of the flower shop and look inside. This action would undoubtedly be dangerous when there were giants wandering around nearby.

Reed did not hesitate. He first confirmed the giant's position. After finding that it was still standing near the intersection, he gestured to Susan to stay where she was, then he crouched down and tiptoed towards the flower shop.

The reason for not letting Susan follow is that a person is a smaller target, more flexible, and not easy to be discovered. Even if they are discovered by the giant, it will prevent the entire army from being wiped out.

Reed tiptoed to the door of the flower shop, stuck his head out and took a look, and was immediately overjoyed. Johnny and Ben were both inside, but they were both lying on the ground motionless, and no one knew whether they were dead or alive.

After calming down, Reed carefully walked over the debris and came to Ben's side, gently turning Ben over. To his relief, there were no obvious injuries on Ben's body.

He put his ear to Johnny's chest and listened. He heard a strong heartbeat. Based on his previous performance, Reed inferred that Ben must have fainted from exhaustion. Reed then checked Johnny again in the same way. It can only be said that Ben protected him very well, but if Johnny did not receive treatment, he would most likely say goodbye to his legs.

Reed breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he was still alive, everything would be fine. Even if modern medicine could not cure Johnny's leg, Reed was confident that he could make Johnny a prosthetic leg that would be as good as the original one.

Just when Reed was worrying about how to take the two people away, a very familiar shout suddenly sounded behind him.

"Run! Reed!"

It was Susan. Reed didn't even need to think, he knew why Susan was talking to him so loudly at this time. He slowly turned around and saw a figure blocking out the sun standing at the door of the flower shop.

At some point, a huge body blocked the door of the flower shop. Reed could not find any gap at all and was completely blocked, which meant that Reed had no possibility of escape.

"Stay away from them!" Susan picked up all the garbage on the ground and threw it at Robert, but her strength was not enough to tickle the giant Robert.

Ignoring Susan behind him, the giant was obviously more interested in Reed and the other two in the flower shop. However, judging from his ferocious expression, this interest was definitely not friendly.

Looking at the huge hand that looked like his own, Reed suddenly felt a little funny. He had imagined that he would die of old age or die from an experimental failure, but he never thought that he would be crushed to death.

What a crazy day.
