Only half an hour had passed when Cen Fangyuan was informed of the completion progress by Song Ren.
"So fast?" he was surprised.
"This is only one-fifth of the progress." Song Ren said, not stopping his digging. "One of our team members went to the dock to get water. Your people should avoid it."
"I know. We'll ask them to stay away after we make the arrangements." Cen Fangyuan replied.
After hanging up the phone, I couldn't help but confirm with the people at the dock.
When Lin Fan arrived at the dock, he easily spotted the two containers. Perhaps someone had deliberately repositioned the other boxes, leaving these two clearly empty.
She tried to lift it. The weight wasn't a big deal, but it was a bit large.
The two movable doors were also a bit of a hindrance as they kept opening and closing. She pulled with one hand, tore the door off, and threw it aside.
Holding one in each hand, they filled them with water from the river nearby.
The container was indeed leaking, but fortunately, it could still be filled. Lin Fan flew back to the fire scene at top speed in less than twenty seconds. In such a short time, very little water had leaked out.
Cen Fangyuan watched as an almost invisible mecha in the distant sky dragged two huge containers and poured water down with ease.
In an instant, nearly eighty tons of water poured down, and the fire was suddenly extinguished by the huge flow of water.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but the sky illuminated by the fire didn't seem that red anymore.
Seeing the effect, Lin Fan didn't even bother to rest. He flew back to the river with two empty "buckets" to draw water, and repeated this process over and over again.
Xingchen can deliver an average of 80 tons of water every minute. With such a large amount of water poured into the fire, no matter how big the fire is, it will be extinguished.
"Commander-in-Chief!" When the fire instructor brought the stubborn one down, he saw Cen Fangyuan standing outside the tent and thought he was waiting for them. "Sorry, Commander-in-Chief, I brought him down."
Cen Fangyuan looked at the face behind him, which was completely black, with only two eyeballs showing. He was angry, but he couldn't say anything to blame.
"Go into the tent and wait for processing!" Song Ren had already informed him when he met these two people, so he definitely couldn't let them leave now.
Both knew that things would not end so easily after seeing the robot, so they accepted the order calmly.
After the two entered the tent, they heard a voice from outside, "Rest for a while, wash your face, and drink some water. We'll deal with it later."
Someone came to the tent to guide them, and the stubborn man who was feeling uneasy finally felt a little relieved.
All in all, the leadership's attitude is still relatively gentle.
Cen Fangyuan just stood outside and watched Lin Fan carry water.
No matter how many times he watched it, he was still amazed at the advancement of technology. It turned out that technology had advanced to this point in places they didn't know about.
Lin Fan was fast, and the river water was inexhaustible, but the container was old after all. It had been exposed to the sun, wind, and rain, and had worn out in many places.
In less than an hour, the bottom door of the large container, which was filled with more than 50 tons of water, collapsed.
A little bit of water leaking could be fixed by speed, but if the bottom was completely gone, that was absurd. Even if the star was moving at a very fast speed, there wouldn't be much water left after twenty seconds.
Lin Fan simply abandoned the large container and used only small "buckets" to carry water. This naturally made the process much less efficient.
But looking for other containers at this time will undoubtedly waste more time.
Seeing that more than half of the water was gone, Cen Fangyuan regretted not finding two more containers as backup.
"Don't worry, it should be about the same." Song Ren and Lin Fan kept communicating with each other.
They dug a firebreak on the ground upwards, and the fire was visibly much smaller.
Lin Fan could have an overview of the situation from the sky and estimated that there would be enough time.
There's no point in thinking about anything at this time, just roll up your sleeves and get to work.
It was already past three in the morning, and no one in the woods, in the sky, in the tent, or outside the tent could sleep.
There were also some people who fell asleep and woke up again at the gathering place at the foot of the mountain.
"Hey, is the fire getting smaller?" The person waiting for news at the foot of the mountain urged his companion.
The companion rubbed his eyes dazedly and looked. "It seems so. Half the sky was red before, but now it seems... it seems only a little red."
If the wildfire looked like a continuous dragon of fire before, it now looks like an oil lamp, with only tiny spots left.
"Is it out? The fire is out?" More and more people were woken up and couldn't believe what they saw.
"It's destroyed, for sure."
"But the firefighters and we had evacuated, so how did they put out the fire?" someone wondered.
It takes manpower to put out a fire.
"Have you forgotten the cars that went in before?" someone else said.
"I didn't forget. What happened to the car?"
"The car is covered tightly. There must be a secret inside that they can't let us know, so they kicked us out." This person's analysis was quite accurate.
"That makes sense. So it was something in the car that put out the fire?" Everyone who heard it thought it was correct and that it must be the case.
Although everyone didn't know what was going on, they all thought it must be the truth. They started discussing what was in the car...
After losing a "bucket", and the one with a larger capacity, the speed of fire extinguishing was indeed much slower.
After more than two hours and forty minutes, Lin Fan finally reached his limit and could no longer maintain the state of Xingchen.
At this time, there were still some remaining fires.
Fortunately, Song Ren and his four companions had already dug to the end and were about to close in. When the fire started, the four of them put it out.
When the last spark disappeared, even Song Ren was exhausted.
In order to keep up with the fire, the few people really did not dare to stop for a moment, and their spirits were extremely tense. When they stopped, they naturally felt exhausted.
However, Lin Fan, who was even more tired than them, was completely unable to move.
Because he had persisted for an unprecedentedly long time, Lin Fan felt a sense of fatigue that he had not felt for a long time.
She felt so tired and hungry that she could eat an elephant.
The few people who were familiar with her condition naturally knew that they could not delay, so they took turns carrying her down the mountain and used the thrusters to quickly return to the parking lot.
Doctor Xiao and Wu Yi, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly helped Lin Fan examine his body.
Song Ren had already come out of Fuguangli, took a bag of food from the RV, opened one and stuffed it into Lin Fan's mouth.
"Captain Song, are you done?" Cen Fangyuan vaguely saw them coming down the mountain, but they were moving too fast and he couldn't see anything clearly.
As the noise down the mountain grew louder and the green lights went out one by one, he still called to inquire.
"Yes, the forest fire has been put out, but the commander-in-chief should still send someone up to check it out." Song Ren replied as he watched the trunk where the mecha was parked slowly close.
"Oh, okay." Cen Fangyuan was very happy and quickly sent people to patrol the mountain. "Then is it convenient for us to meet now?"
Song Ren looked at Lin Fan who was eating, thought for a few seconds, and finally agreed.
"Okay, I'll take people up there."
