Chapter 302 Landslides
As soon as they got off the plane, everyone immediately pulled out their phones to contact their team and gather the latest updates.
Eric’s phone, along with those of his companions, was off and unreachable.
After George finished his calls, his expression grew increasingly grim.
Staring out at the heavy rain, he gritted his teeth and decisively ordered, “Continue the search. and deploy everyone!”
Eric’s safety was the top priority.
Before they left, they had stationed personnel in Melvern City as a precaution. Those team members quickly brought over several sets of rain gear. Kate put on a raincoat without hesitation, her eyes determined. “Let’s go now.”
Regardless of the road conditions or weather, all she wanted was to find Eric.
No one objected to Kate’s decision. They quietly and swiftly put on their rain gear and got into the off–road vehicles that had been brought over.
George took the wheel, driving at full speed toward the mountain outside the city.
Meanwhile, Eric’s team was also searching the mountain, but the area was vast, and the heavy rain had washed away many traces and made the paths even muddier.

Even though they had been informed immediately after Eric’s accident and rushed to the scene, they still couldn’t pinpoint where the car had gone off the road.
There were enemies in the area as well.
The search teams struggled through the mountain, their positioning equipment less accurate due to the weather.
Everyone was anxious, fearing the worst for their boss.
During these gruelling ten hours of searching, some of the rescue team members had missing in the mountains or lost contact entirely.

George managed to reach the teams that still had signal, but none of them had found any trace of Eric and his companions.
A deafening clap of thunder echoed, and the wind and rain intensified. The already weak soil could no longer hold, starting to slide rapidly downhill.
In this extreme weather, two terrifying natural disasters–landslides and mudslides–were creeping into the mountains.

“Quick, run to higher ground!”
The search teams made a swift decision and began running uphill and in the opposite direction.
Those who were slower to react, or too close to the landslides and mudslides, couldn’t escape in time and were quickly engulfed….
As Kate and her team drove into the mountains, they were met with a scene of chaos and terror.
The road was completely blocked by a landslide, preventing any further progress.
Rescue personnel were retreating from the mountains. In such conditions, continuing the search would be suicidal.
Kate stared at the blocked road, at the devastation in the mountains, her heart wrenching with pain.
How could this be happening?
She opened her mouth, but no words came out.
George was also stunned. Looking at the blocked path, he gritted his teeth. “We have to go back!”
Pushing forward would only lead to unnecessary deaths.
He quickly contacted the rescue teams to pull back. They had to wait for the rain to stop and the danger to pass before continuing the search.
Though George appeared calm while giving orders, his eyes were bloodshot, and his hands. trembled slightly. He bit down hard, his frustration evident.
This weather was a severe disadvantage.
They hadn’t found Eric, and now they had lost so many men…
For now, they had no choice but to return to Melvern City.
Kate slumped in her seat, her eyes unfocused.
Her heart ached as she closed her eyes in pain.
