Chapter 1269: Simultaneous Attacks, and Rescue

Chapter 1268: Simultaneous Attacks, and Rescue

The four of them went to the parking lot, said goodbye, and drove off.

Luke and Selina headed south toward Brooklyn as they went home.

It seemed Matt had a thing to attend to, and Foggy drove him west.

It was already past one, and there were more pedestrians on the street. Like Luke and Selina, many of them had left work early.

They had relaxed smiles on their faces. It was always fun to be rid of the burden of work for a while.

Luke and Selina were also discussing what to eat tonight.

Luke suggested that they have hot pot, but Selina shook her head firmly.

Not even when Luke promised that they could have two types of soup this time.

To quote Selina: It was torture to watch him have spicy soup while she had to drink clear soup herself.

As they bickered, suddenly, there was a boom not far away.

They both looked in the direction of the sound.

Luke turned the wheel, and Selina took out her badge.

There was no doubt that it was an explosion.

They were in the busiest part of Brooklyn, which was crowded with people.

This explosion would definitely cause chaos, and they would be busy.

As Luke drove, Selina reported the situation to HQ via the walkie-talkie.

When the car was close to the scene of the explosion, she gave a quick description. “…There’s a lot of smoke at the subway station. We suspect there’s been an explosion inside, and a lot of people may be injured. Requesting immediate backup.”

She looked around and saw people crying and running around. Many of them were covered in dust and blood.

Something big had really happened this time.

With that, she dropped the walkie-talkie, grabbed the tactical vest with the NYPD logo on it, and got out.

On the other side, Luke had already started running, and warned, “Have Gold Nugget follow you at all times. Don’t split up.”

The explosion looked like a terrorist attack; it was possible that there might be a second one.

He had Elementary Self-Healing to protect him, but Selina didn’t. She had to bring Gold Nugget with her.

Gold Nugget began to whine.

As she put on her vest, Selina patted the dog’s head. “I know you don’t like loud noises, but it’s gone now, right?”

Gold Nugget didn’t say anything else.

It wasn’t complaining, but reminding her to be more vigilant.

An explosion easily caused loud noises and fire. These two things had a huge impact on it, and might cause some problems.

But Selina was connected to it, which was enough.

They got out of the car and didn’t bother with the crowd running on the streets. Although these people were in a sorry state, they weren’t in serious trouble.

The most serious situation would be inside the subway station.

There were a lot of travelers inside, and the damage from an explosion in an enclosed space would be even worse.

They were slightly relieved when they reached the subway entrance. At the very least, the place hadn’t collapsed, and the rescue workers could enter directly.

Luke kicked away all the debris that was blocking the passage and cleared a more complete path.

He was very fast, and it only took him ten seconds to reach the subway station.

It was dark here, and most of the lights were out. There was also thick dust everywhere, and the only illumination was scattered emergency lights in several corners.

Luke took out two masks from his pocket and gave one to Selina.

When they brought the mask close to their face, it automatically stuck to their mouth and nose and cleared their airways.

A gas mask with nanotechnology was useful.

Gold Nugget didn’t need one; it was already covering Dollar’s mouth, nose, and ears.

Luke said, “I’ll go in to rescue people. Clean up the entrance. When the rescue team arrives, have them evacuate the wounded.”

Selina nodded and moved to the side.

As they talked, they each took out a small flashlight from their waist, turned it on, and fixed it in place with nylon buckles on their vest before they got to work.

Luke went inside, and his Gucci sunglasses switched to yellow lenses. He activated the scan function and quickly searched for injured people in the subway station.

Coupled with Sharp Nose, he prioritized rescuing those who were severely injured, and only casually comforted those with mild injuries, telling them that reinforcements would be arriving soon.

While scared for now, the people with mild injuries would be fine. If Luke got to the heavily wounded too late, they might not survive.

To his relief, the explosion had happened in one corner of the subway station.

There weren’t many people here.

Even then, there were still close to a hundred people in the subway station.

Except for the 10 or 20 survivors who escaped with mild injuries, the other 70 or so people had more severe injuries.

Most of them were lying on the ground with lifeless expressions. Blood oozed from their ears and noses; they had clearly been injured by the explosion.

Some moaned, some cried, some prayed, and some cried for help. It was like hell on earth.

After rescuing a dozen people, Luke grew agitated. “Selina, when is help coming?”

Selina said, “A few patrol officers have arrived. The fire trucks just arrived, but the ambulances are stuck two blocks away and can’t move any faster.”

Luke said, “Tell them to hurry up.”

He didn’t blame the paramedics.

After the explosion, a lot of people must’ve scattered.

In a panic, accidents and traffic were inevitable.

But there were too many heavily wounded people here.

In the end, there was only so much he could do as one person, and he had only been able to administer emergency treatment for now.

If the ambulances didn’t arrive in half an hour, at least 20 people would die.

And there was a bigger problem.

The multifaceted system had sent a message just now. There had been simultaneous explosions in the three most populated areas of New York.

There had been explosions at two subway stations in Manhattan.

And three in Queens and Brooklyn each.

The police comms had exploded, and the phone lines were jammed.

On the other hand, everyone could use the instant messaging apps on smartphones to contact each other.

In particular, a chat group for communication could be temporarily set up and colleagues added to it, which could replace walkie-talkies as a frontline command platform.

The multifaceted system had received countless relevant intelligence reports which gave Luke an idea of what was going on in New York even while he was rescuing people in the subway station.

It was for this reason that his mood was rather heavy.

Too many people were injured, and even more had severe injuries.

Based on the casualties in this subway station, explosions at eight subway stations would see hundreds of deaths in half an hour, and over a thousand would have severe injuries while countless others would have minor injuries.
