For those who have never experienced earthquakes, a magnitude 6.5 earthquake is just a number and has no concept. But it can be compared to the Ya-An earthquake that once occurred in China is magnitude 7, with a population of 1.52 million and a disaster area of ​​12,500 square kilometers.

However, the better part of this earthquake is that it occurs during the day and the areas affected by the earthquake are mainly plains, which reduces the difficulty of rescue.

The newly completed Highway 8 has been significantly affected, and a large number of cracks appeared on the ground. Fortunately, the gap is not big, so you can repair it later.

When driving towards Wanderer Town, some low-level highways have great problems. The sections near the town are twisted and deformed, which shows how terrifying the earthquake is.

There were farms on both sides of the road. Wang Bo fell down the car window and looked out. Most of these houses had collapsed. The fences of the pastures were broken, the fences of cattle and sheep escaped, and the road was blocked.

"Farke!" Charlie slapped the steering wheel hard. He honked the horn, and the flock of cattle and sheep became even more frightened, but he did not make way.

Wang Bo looked around and shouted, "You are still honking your fart, driving down the road, and walking around the grass!"

The Raider's tires were more than one meter high, and the car's chassis had airbags, which could be raised for a higher height. Charlie drove off the road and drove forward on the bumpy grass.

The South Island has a relatively small population, with an area of ​​280,000 square kilometers, but a population of only one million, which means there are less than four people on a square kilometer of land.

Except for urban settlements, most other places are barren grasslands, and you can occasionally see a farm. In this case, the damage caused by earthquakes is relatively small.

Along the way, Wang Bo and others saw the situation relatively optimistic, but after arriving near Wanderer Town, the situation changed and the horror of natural disasters was revealed!

They had been to this town before, where they were stolen from their cars, wallets and mobile phones by Little Hani and others. At that time, the town was full of green grass and small buildings, like a paradise.

But now, almost all the houses in the town have collapsed, several cars have overturned the roadside, some trees have fallen, cattle, sheep and animals have run around, and there are terrified calls for help and howls of Maori natives everywhere.

Someone was trying hard to move the car and wanted to open the blocked intersection. Wang Bo opened the car door and jumped out of the car. He looked at the ruins in the distance and was stunned: Is this the terrible earthquake?

The sky was covered with clouds and it looked like it was going to rain.

The raider's figure was extremely conspicuous. After appearing, a policeman ran over and shouted, "People, please do a favor, can I drag this damn car away?"

Wang Bo was hanging his chest, and he nodded and said, "No problem, just say it to my driver. Also, I would like to ask if Sheriff Smith of O'City is here?"

Although earthquakes occur frequently in New Zealand, the quality of disaster relief personnel is really not very good. There are many policemen coming to the town, at least a dozen or twenty, but no one organizes them and they are fighting each other.

The policeman took Wang Bo through the ruins for a while, inquired about several people before finding the sheriff. At this time, the sheriff was also helping to dig people from the collapsed building, so busy that he was too busy to hand over.

Hearing the shouts, Sheriff Smith saw Wang Bo, and his heavy expression showed a hint of relief. He asked, "Wang, how are you doing there? How many people are brought?"

Wang Bo said: "You know, there are no people or houses in my town, and it's far away from here. The situation is very optimistic. I brought all the people I can bring. Where is Aocheng?"

Sheriff Smith sighed and said, "It has been affected and some houses have collapsed, but now statistics show that there are no casualties. The problem with Wanderer Town is quite big. You see, the surrounding police and fire brigades have been mobilized."

He assigned Wang Bo's job, and at this time, Lao Wang realized that the disaster relief scene was not too chaotic. The police and firefighters did not fight each other, but led a few residents to save people.

There were a total of ten Maori people assigned to Wang Bo. In this way, Hani, Charlie, Bowen, Anderson and the Mexican handsome guy, he had fifteen people. Of course, there was also a dog and the strong man followed him.

When he learned that the house had collapsed in O'City, he called Eva first.

The signal had been restored, but the phone could not be reached for a long time. He called several times but no one answered the phone. He suddenly became anxious.

But he couldn't go to Ao City to check the situation, after all, he was shouldering a heavy responsibility now.

Putting away his phone, Wang Bo looked around. He had not received disaster relief training. He didn't know what to do for a moment, so he asked Charlie: "Old Cha, what should I do first?"

Charlie frowned together, and his forehead was still wrinkled: "Is there any statistics? Who did not come out? Which buildings are the key rescue targets?"

A local Maori said in a crying voice: "It is impossible to count. Now we have to search from house to door. We don't know where we need help..."

It would be better if the earthquake occurred in other areas. New Zealanders pay great attention to earthquake resistance. But Wanderer Town is a gathering place for Maori people. Maori houses are mainly traditional structures, mostly wood and stone structures, and it is very difficult to rescue after being shaken.

What is even more difficult is that the work has no direction at all, and there is not even the earthquake relief command center. When Wang Bo came here, he only saw Sheriff Smith, an official, and others such as the mayor and the inspector!

Wang Bo saw several people working hard to dig a collapsed house next to him, so he ran over and asked, "Hey, guys, are there any disaster victims under you? Do you need help?"

As a result, a big man replied: "We don't know. Maybe there are disaster victims below, but whether there is or not we have to dig it open. If not, it would be a waste of effort. If there is, then our rescue is necessary?"

Wang Bo almost choked by these words. Although he is not a professional disaster relief worker, he also knows that this method that would rather kill by mistake than let go is not applicable in disaster relief.

The early stage of the rescue work is golden time, and all efforts must be concentrated for effective rescue. They waste not only their efforts, but also their time!

And at this time, time is the most precious!

Charlie also understood this and shouted, "Didn't anyone do a damn count? Is there no focus on rescue?"

Several Maori people who followed them were impatient, and some shouted, "Do you want to help save people? Do you want to stand like this?"

The best way to do now is to find a collapsed house to start digging. As for whether these tasks are necessary, it doesn't matter.

Judging from the situation in the town, it is obvious that everyone only cares about whether they are working, not whether they are useful or not.
