Chapter 560 - Chapter 560: Chapter 560: Scorpion Enters the City (2/2)
“So what?” Chen Yu said with an indifferent expression, “Right now, load the medicine from the warehouse onto the truck; I am taking it away.”
Zhou Wutong gritted his teeth: “Dream on, I’ll never hand the medicine over to you!”
Chen Yu turned his gaze directly to the doctors outside the door.
“Do it now, as I said, or I will kill your director.”
The doctors immediately panicked, as the relationship between the director and the City Lord was no ordinary one; otherwise, he wouldn’t have become the director with his mediocre medical skills.
They immediately called the warehouse to have a truck filled with medical supplies packed up.
Without lingering any longer, Chen Yu took Zhou Wutong as his hostage and walked toward the warehouse.
When going up to the third floor, Chen Yu had already instructed Ba Wan to go to the warehouse in advance and wait there.
At this moment, a truck was being hastily loaded with medicine by the anxious workers inside the warehouse, and Ba Wan had already climbed into the truck’s co-driver seat early on.
By the time Chen Yu and Zhou Wutong arrived, the truck was fully loaded.
“Director Zhou, thank you so much,” Chen Yu said. “This batch of medicine is exactly what I urgently need.”
After patting Zhou Wutong’s shoulder, Chen Yu jumped onto the truck and drove off into the distance.
Zhou Wutong was so angry he clenched his teeth and rushed into the warehouse.
The truck that had just been taken was the largest one they had, capable of moving an eighth of the warehouse’s medicines.
Indeed, large empty spaces now appeared in the once fully stocked warehouse.
“What the hell are you guys good for? Had I not come here, would you dare to load the medicine?”
The several workers who were loading the truck were utterly confused by the scolding; the person who came to give the orders earlier had used Director Zhou’s name, or else they wouldn’t have dared to load the truck.
Now, they were being blamed for it.
Just as Zhou Wutong was about to call the City Lord to report the situation, a piercing alarm sounded in the sky.
“Urgent notice, scorpions have entered the city; people, secure your doors and windows, activate the defenses, Sky Sand City is going into lockdown.”
Fear reached an extreme on Zhou Wutong’s face; he hurriedly hung up the phone, ordered the warehouse doors to be closed, and activated the perimeter defenses himself before he frantically returned to the hospital.
Upon hearing the broadcast, Chen Yu couldn’t help but frown slightly.
“Scorpions? Is that someone’s code name? How terrifying.”
Ba Wan’s breathing also became rapid, his face showing a hint of horror.
“It’s the Myriad Poison Scorpion from the desert! Just one drop of its venom can kill more than forty strong men at once!”
Chen Yu was startled; he had heard of such creatures in the desert, known for their extremely potent venom.
But even then, it seemed impossible for it to kill more than forty people at once.
He shook his head, dismissing the thought without dwelling on it, and floored the gas pedal to drive the truck back to the shantytown.
Chen Yu’s brow furrowed deeply; a mere scorpion managed to scare the people in the city like this; it seemed this creature was definitely not simple.
Just as he was about to call out to the people here to receive the medicine, a whizzing sound suddenly came from not far away.
