After knocking away the slow-moving Toyota Corolla ahead, the Hummer H6 only slowed down slightly before it once again accelerated sharply, spewing black smoke from its exhaust pipe. But after making a sharp turn, Sheyan could not help but swear out loud again.

That’s because an accident involving more than 20 vehicles was taking place right in front of them. Fire and smoke filled the air. Under the circumstances, no matter how powerful the Hummer H6 was, there was no way it could just force its way through like a bulldozer.

Therefore, Sheyan did not hesitate to press the button on the dashboard to switch to off-road mode. With a turn of the steering wheel, the vehicle steered towards the lawn to the side!

The Hummer’s performance on the road was about the same as cars like Jetta and Santana, but in terms of off-road capability, the Hummer was the king among civilian vehicles!

Amidst the loud roar of the engine, large masses of wet soil mixed with a large amount of crushed grass sprayed out from under the wheels and splashed onto the trees nearby. The lawn had obviously been carefully managed; the owner must have spent a lot of time on it, but he was now unable to make any protests because he was currently buried under his collapsed house.

Sheyan showed not the slightest hesitation in driving over several patches of lawn and smashing into a beautiful fence with blue and white morning glory growing on it. After that, the Hummer crashed into a shaky shed at more than 80 km/h, then dashed out among the dust and debris like a giant metallic beast.

A wet slope more than sixty degrees steep appeared in front of them. Most people could only stop helplessly and sigh when they see this.

Seeing the inevitable collision approaching, Gordon could not help screaming out loud.

“You’re crazy!”

Zi pulled him to the back of the car to join his family, and she herself took the front passenger seat.

Right before the moment of impact, without the need for Sheyan to give the order, a yellow glow already appeared from Kulutego’s hand.

The slope collapsed slightly, forming something like a staircase. Sheyan put the pedal to the metal, and the engine roared loudly. The custom Bridgestone off-road tires provided amazing grip for the vehicle, launching it forward. A large amount of wet mud frantically splashed out from under the rear wheels. The steel monster forcefully climbed up the steep slope!

Even after overcoming this obstacle, the path ahead was still not a smooth ride, but at least they had temporarily steered away from the direction which the fissures were extending towards. From this high ground, they could clearly see the vast land in the distance waving and undulating. The buildings were shaking and collapsing in this unprecedented disaster, and the trees were falling down one after another.

The family at the back trembled when they saw this scene. Gordon could not help yelling in fear, “Where are we going now?”

“Santa Monica Airport. There’s a plane waiting for us there,” answered Sheyan calmly.

“You can save at least half the time if you take the airport highway!” Gordon immediately gave a suggestion.

Sheyan smirked. With a turn of the steering wheel, the Hummer steered back onto another road which had less traffic. It charged forward violently, knocking away all the vehicles in its path.

The earthquake had lasted for nearly five minutes now. All the buildings that would collapse already did, while those that had not collapsed could probably still persist for a while longer, ushering in a relatively safe period in the city for the moment. Although entering the city was a very dangerous thing to do, in order to cut back time on the journey, Sheyan decided to take the risk.

“You should’ve turned left to get to the airport highway,” Gordon pointed out Sheyan’s mistake, but he immediately shut his mouth. He stared wide-eyed into the distance, because he already saw what the airport highway that was built on a bridge looked like at the moment. From a bird’s eye view, it would look like the corpse of a snake that had dried up.
