Chapter 40 Hurry Up! Get the Principal Here!
It was early in the morning.
Yuan Congming told the surrounding people that the foundation under the collapsed position was not stable enough.
It was very likely that there would be a second collapse, and it would even affect the surrounding residential buildings.
Yuan Congming suggested that the residents had better not stay at home tonight, go to a relative’s house, or go to a hotel to stay.
The crowd dispersed.
The crowd had all left. They did not dare to stay in their own homes.
The rescue was still ongoing.
The roaring sounds continued. Excavators and forklifts entered the vicinity of the ruins one after another. They began to slowly clean up the rubble scattered on the surrounding roads.
A few students had been fighting from the afternoon until late at night. They were physically and mentally exhausted.
With dark circles under their eyes, they continued to cast magic to help.
“More people are coming up. It’s two elderly. Quickly check their vital signs and send them to the hospital.”
The doctors ran over with stretchers. After carrying the injured into the ambulance, they rushed to the hospital.
The rescue team had already rescued more than 40 people. Other than three people who died, the rest of the people were basically not in danger.
If it weren’t for the help of the students from Hogwarts University this time, the rescue work would definitely not have gone so smoothly.
Jiangbei District gradually quieted down in the latter half of the night.
Yuan Congming and the others carried a few boxes of instant noodles and walked over with a smile. “Boys, eat something.”
“Our current conditions don’t allow it. Let’s eat some instant noodles and ham sausages first. When the rescue is over, I’ll definitely treat you to a big meal!”
Zhang Jinlong and the others took the instant noodles and wolfed them down. They were famished.
A bowl of instant noodles was quickly finished. They even drank all the hot soup.
The few of them put down the instant noodles boxes in their hands and looked straight at Yuan Congming.
“There’s more! There’s more!”
“Huzi, prepare the instant noodles again. The little brothers aren’t full yet.”
“Alright, we’ll go right away!” The firefighters who were still eating instant noodles in the distance couldn’t help but look at each other and smile when they saw a few students finish their instant noodles with an expression that said, “I’m not full yet.”
“Actually, we’re about the same age as those students!”
“That’s not good. They’re really amazing. If it weren’t for these students helping us, how could we rescue those people so easily?”
“I feel like going to a magic university.”
“We don’t have the talent to learn magic…”
The second bowl of instant noodles was delivered to Zhang Jinlong and the others. They finished it in a few gulps.
After eating two boxes of steaming hot instant noodles, Zhang Jinlong and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
It was so comfortable.
The search and rescue dogs were still working while the firefighters were taking turns to sleep.
Yuan Congming said to Zhang Jinlong, “Little brother, our conditions here are limited. You guys should also take a break from your shifts. Don’t overwork yourselves.”
Zhang Jinlong nodded after hearing that and said to the three people next to him, “You guys go to sleep first. I’ll watch the first wave.”
The few of them were so sleepy that they didn’t waste any time. They sat cross-legged on the ground and entered a meditative state.
Their mental energy was overused, and they could recover faster by meditating.
At the same time, the depleted magic elements in their bodies could recover faster.
In the distant building, Chu Xiaoxiao did not appear. She had actually arrived a long time ago.
Seeing that there were no seriously injured people who needed help, she decided not to show her face.
At three in the morning, the sky was still dark.

At this time, a search and rescue dog was barking at a collapsed area.
“Captain, we found the trapped people!”
“All of them are here. Hurry up and help!”
Yuan Congming was asleep. When he heard the shouts of his team members, he got up and shouted loudly.
The other firefighters quickly ran over.
Zhang Jinlong also opened his eyes.
The meditation just now had allowed him to recover some of his spiritual power. When he heard that another trapped person was found, he stood up from the ground, gritting his teeth.
Now, every time he moved, his entire body would ache.
Zhang Jinlong walked over and began to cast the earth element magic.
The earth element began to gather, and the stones under his feet began to gather in the surrounding sand.
A tunnel that extended downwards slowly appeared.
Although the magic elements in his body had recovered a little, this level of casting was still quite strenuous for Zhang Jinlong.
One after another, a few students woke up and walked over.
“Old Zhang, go and rest. Leave the rest to us.”
Some students took over Zhang Jinlong’s shift.
The moment he stopped casting, Zhang Jinlong felt his entire brain twitching.
He had overused his energy, and he needed to meditate and rest for a period of time.
The four students took turns casting their spells and opened up a passageway to look down.
Chu Xiaoxiao, who had not shown up all this while, also came over.
After opening up this passageway, basically, all the people trapped below would be rescued.
“All of you go and rest. Leave the rest to me.”
A few students saw Chu Xiaoxiao and immediately greeted her, “Teacher.”
“Teacher…”
“Teacher is here…”
Chu Xiaoxiao squatted down and chanted a
spell.
With Chu Xiaoxiao’s help, the tunnel was opened even faster.
Half an hour later, the entire tunnel was opened.

“You can go down now, but this tunnel should be very stable. You guys should be faster.”
After Chu Xiaoxiao said that, the firefighters nodded.
Two people went down at once. After tying the safety rope, they slowly began to descend.
Five minutes later, the safety rope was pulled.
A trapped person was pulled up.
Followed by the second, and the third…
Until the fourth person, the ground suddenly shook again.
Chu Xiaoxiao’s expression instantly turned extremely ugly. She quickly squatted down and pressed her hands on the ground as earth elements gushed out frantically.
The foundation below was unstable, and the tunnel was about to collapse.
“Quick! Let the people below come up. I can’t hold on for long!”
Chu Xiaoxiao, who was trying her best to stabilize the tunnel, shouted anxiously.
“Crack crack crack…”
Suddenly, the ground began to shake rapidly.
Cracks appeared on the ground.
The foundation below completely collapsed.
Driven by inertia, Chu Xiaoxiao’s earth element magic could not hold on at all.
The tunnel instantly collapsed.
“It’s over!”
At this moment, everyone’s hearts turned into despair!
There were still two firefighters and trapped people below!
“Call the principal immediately and tell him to come over!”
Chu Xiaoxiao shouted loudly.
Zhang Jinlong was the first to react. In this situation, only Jiang Han could stabilize the situation.
Looking at the rapidly collapsing tunnel, everyone was in despair.
At the same time, Jiang Han was woken up by a phone call in school.
“Something bad happened, Principal. The rescue tunnel that we just built has collapsed. There are still trapped people and firefighters below. Only you can save them!”
After Jiang Han heard that, he jumped up from his bed. “Give me the coordinates. I’ll be there right away!”
The collapse was extremely dangerous. Jiang Han was still wearing his pajamas and quickly carved a magic array on the ground.

After more than ten seconds, a hexagram array was formed. Jiang Han strode in!
