Bound to the Multiverse Restaurant, I'm now the darling of my staff.

Chapter 61 Excessive Consumption of Spiritual Energy

"Baby, baby, where are you?"

"Waaaaah, Mommy, I want Mommy..."

"Wife! Please, someone, save my wife!"

"Son, my son is trapped underneath! Help!"

Amidst the ruins, cries, calls for help, and shouts mingled together, and panic and despair permeated the air.

The earthquake happened so suddenly that they had no time to react.

Many people were buried forever under the collapsed buildings without even knowing what had happened.

A mother held her lifeless daughter in her arms, her disheveled face filled with despair.

The young boy was pinned under a thick concrete slab, blood seeping from beneath it, yet he held the hand of the weeping girl, trying to make her forget herself.

"Why? Why is there no cell phone signal?"

"Waaaaah, someone please save us..."

Everywhere was desolate and tragic; the entire town was like a living hell.

One person looked up at the sky and prayed, "Gods and Buddhas, please, save us..."

Staring blankly at the sky, he vaguely thought he saw people flying overhead. Was it just his imagination...?

"No, that's not right, there really are people! There are people in the sky!"

The last sentence was spoken in a loud voice, causing the people around to look up as well.

At first, they were just black dots that were hard to see, but as they got closer, the clothes they were wearing became clearer.

The iconic green military uniforms were a sight to behold and a source of inspiration for everyone who saw them.

"It's the People's Liberation Army! The People's Liberation Army has come to rescue us!"

Everyone wept with joy, and hope began to appear on their faces, which had been filled with despair.

The girl, clutching the hand of the boy whose body was half-trapped under the stone slab, cried, "Hold on a little longer, please, hold on a little longer for my sake, you'll be saved soon..."

In the sky, when skydiving from 5,000 meters high, the descent speed will increase as you go further down due to gravity.

Every soldier's heart was in their throat; from that height, one wrong step and they would be smashed to pieces.

As they broke through the clouds, the situation on the ground gradually became clear, revealing broken walls and collapsed mountainsides everywhere.

The horrific situation horrified them and filled them with worry.

Given the complex conditions on the ground, there was simply no suitable landing spot...

"Everyone prepare!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in their minds—it was the deputy regimental commander's sister!

"Open the parachute!"

Everyone instinctively pulled up their parachutes.

Countless umbrellas suddenly bloomed in the gray sky.

It was at this point that the soldiers realized they were still some distance from their planned parachute deployment altitude, and deploying their parachutes too early would increase the difficulty of their landing and the risk of injury.

Wen Yan heard her teammates asking her what to do through her communication headset, and she remembered her sister's voice from earlier.

Although he was somewhat annoyed by her disobedience and reckless behavior, he always trusted his younger sister unconditionally.

"Don't worry, everyone can just land anywhere."

That voice echoed in my mind again.

But just find any place to land or something...

What if it lands on a protruding boulder or exposed steel bars?

The deputy commander's sister is definitely an amateur, huh... they'd better not take it too seriously...

Wen Yan was also speechless. She held back for a while, but in the end, she could only say, "Listen to her, and prepare for landing!"

"Yes!"

As they got closer to the ground, some soldiers found themselves in a small open space, which brought a sense of relief.

Some soldiers were surrounded by sharp stones or reinforced concrete, and could only cry for help in their hearts, their eyes filled with despair.

When they were only a hundred meters from the ground, everyone felt their bodies lighten, as if they were suddenly enveloped in a thin film of light.

The parachutes overhead weren't even needed; all the soldiers found that their bodies had automatically avoided the danger zones and landed safely.

To the people on the ground, this scene appeared as if the People's Liberation Army soldiers had descended from the sky, surrounded by an aura of glory, like gods descending to earth.

But they didn't realize anything was wrong, simply assuming it was just their imaginations running wild and they were automatically adding a filter.

All two hundred-plus soldiers landed safely without injury.

"Cough cough..."

As soon as she stood up, Wen Nuan bent over and coughed violently, her little face pale.

"Are you okay?"

The two people who landed with her nervously surrounded her, with Chu Ze looking at her anxiously.

"Could it be due to excessive consumption of spiritual energy?"

Zhou Chong and Wen Yan, who had rushed over from the side, looked at her with complicated expressions upon hearing this.

"I'm not... cough cough..."

Wen Nuan wanted to say something, but she couldn't help coughing as soon as she opened her mouth, which made her face even paler.

"What else do you want to say after all this? Just shut up and rest."

Wen Yan couldn't help but scold him a couple of times, but then her eyes welled up with heartache.

The soldiers who landed nearby also looked at her with guilty expressions.

It's all because of them that the fairy is like this...

"I……"

Just as he was about to speak, Zhou Chong raised his hand to stop him.

"Wen girl, stop talking. You need to rest. Leave the rest to us."

Zhou Chong's eyes were full of gratitude. Thanks to this child, otherwise they would have suffered heavy losses before they even started the rescue.

warmth,"……"

Seeing the guilty and concerned looks from everyone around her, Wen Nuan, who was not allowed to speak, felt somewhat helpless.

While she was indeed very touched, her cough was simply due to accidentally choking on the wind while descending; it had absolutely nothing to do with any depletion of spiritual energy...

"Comrades of the People's Liberation Army, you've finally arrived! Please save my wife! She's trapped under that slab of stone!"

"And my son, his leg is pinned down by a big rock and he can't move..."

"Comrade PLA soldier, my daughter is injured, please save her!"

Seeing them, the disheveled people, covered in blood, were like seeing saviors, and they rushed forward to ask for help.

After surveying the surroundings, Zhou Chongsu ordered with a stern face, "Everyone, pay attention! Organize into small teams and conduct rescue and search operations in their respective areas. Be aware that there may still be survivors under the collapsed buildings!"

"Yes!"

"The medical team should immediately find a suitable location and set up a mobile medical station!"

"Yes!"

All soldiers immediately sprang into action, dispersing to begin the search and rescue operation.

Wen Yan didn't even have time to say much to her sister. She just glanced at her and then quickly ran towards the ruins to start rescuing people.

Looking at the busy crowd, Wen Nuan felt a little lost for a moment, not knowing what she should do.

"Sister, you came with the People's Liberation Army uncles. Are you also a soldier? Can you save my mother?"

Wen Nuan looked down and saw a little girl, about four or five years old, standing barefoot beside her. Her clothes were dusty and torn, and she had scrapes all over her body. Her forehead was bleeding from a wound, and her shoes were nowhere to be seen.

Looking at the child, I felt my eyes welling up with tears. I knelt down and gently stroked the little girl's wound with my palm. The fine, still bleeding wound immediately healed.

Warmth tried to force a smile and said softly.

"I'm not a soldier in the People's Liberation Army, but I'll help you rescue your mother. Where is your mother?"

The girl was stunned by this magical scene and stared at her with wide eyes, "Sister, are you a fairy?"

Then she felt a little happy. The fairy sister was so powerful that she could definitely save her mother, so she took Wen Nuan's hand and left.

"Fairy sister, I'll take you to find your mother. She's trapped under a rock, right over there!"

Noticing that the girl wasn't wearing shoes, Wen Nuan wanted to pick her up immediately, but someone beat her to it.

Chu Ze had a stern face, and his movements as he held the little girl were somewhat clumsy, but his voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of scaring someone, "Just give us directions, tell us the way."

The little girl was a little scared of the tall and stern-looking uncle, but her desire to save her mother prevailed, and she mustered up her courage to point in a direction.

"It's over there..."

The three of them immediately ran in the direction she pointed...
