It was Denton who managed to grab Tyler in time. But because he yanked so hard, and the oxygen was already thin, Denton straight up fainted on the spot, eyes rolling back! Tyler panicked and slapped at Denton's philtrum to wake him. He had gotten his storage space too late, so things like oxygen tanks were impossible to obtain. He hit Denton so hard—because he was terrified—that he nearly knocked him out again from pain. Then, in a moment of clarity, Tyler shoved Denton into his own storage space. And that was how the two of them managed to survive, taking turns hiding in the storage space—one stayed inside for a bit, then swapped with the other. That was the only reason they hadn't passed out. Only when they heard Caroline causing a commotion outside did they both emerge, finally feeling the restored oxygen in the yard. "Caroline, where did you go? We searched everywhere! Tyler was about to cry." Denton was on the verge of tears himself. The area under his nose, where Tyler had pinched him earlier, had several fingernail marks, making him look ridiculous. "I went into my storage space. Nelson's in there too," Caroline explained simply. "Caroline..." Denton's tears burst out instantly, his whole face scrunching up like a steamed bun. Caroline thought he was upset that she hadn't mentioned her storage space could take people inside. But Denton's next sentence nearly made her collapse laughing. "I want a storage space too! One I can go into! That's so cool!" Caroline gently patted his head. Same answer as always, “In dreams, anything's possible.” Tyler, standing beside them, looked Caroline up and down several times. Seeing she was completely unharmed, his tightly clenched fists finally relaxed. As for Caroline's storage space being able to hold people, he didn't ask anything or seem shocked. After all, his storage space could hold people too. Caroline hadn't said anything before, but Tyler didn't care.Caroline always managed to surprise people. And whenever they were in danger or needed something, she never withheld anything from them. Just like this base. Just like the spring water. Caroline had already given them so much, and neither he nor Denton had any right to expect anything more from her. "As long as you're okay," Tyler said in a hoarse voice. No one spoke further. They all looked up at the pitch-black sky above them—what were they supposed to do now? If they asked the storage space to remove the barrier above, the soil would fall straight down. And who knew what the outside had collapsed into by now? Caroline and Tyler's storage spaces might fill up completely and still be unable to hold all the falling dirt. Just then, they suddenly heard noise above their heads! It sounded like someone outside was trying to break through. There was the sound of machinery too—loud machinery. The three of them exchanged quick, tense glances and stared up. Could it be that some powerful mutant creature had found the base? Or had someone already discovered the base before, someone who had set their sights on them, and now, with the disaster burying the house, was trying to take advantage of it? While they were all preparing for a fight, the noise above grew louder and louder. It sounded like heavy equipment operating overhead. Then came shouting—people's voices—calling out commands. Caroline and Tyler exchanged a look, both of them seeing the same hint of astonishment in each other's eyes. Because that noise ... sounded a little familiar. But with the glass barrier overhead and layers of dirt and rubble piled on top, the sound wasn't very clear. After about half an hour, Caroline pulled out several dozen more oxygen tanks from her storage space and smashed them on the floor, filling the base with oxygen again.And at that moment, a beam of light suddenly broke through above them! It was the first time they had seen natural light since being buried. The feeling was strange, almost like the light was coming from another world. Then more and more light filtered down, and they could make out several excavators above them, along with a few pairs of boots—military boots. All of them relaxed immediately. Because one pair of boots suddenly shifted apart, crouched down, and a grinning face with a perfect row of bright white teeth appeared above the barrier. "Hehehe, I'm here to save you!" None other than Francis. Judging by Francis's expression, he was very pleased with himself. After he spoke, several more pairs of military boots separated as their owners crouched down, heads popping into view above the glass barrier, calling down to them. "Caroline!" "Hi, Caroline!" "Don't worry, Caroline, we're here!"
