Chapter 616 - 615: Repairing the bridge

Luciel paid attention to the sea, but it seemed that the fish below couldn’t smell them, as he hadn’t seen any and the water just remained peaceful with the waves moving to and fro.Of course, Myla and the others who were cleaning the road for them were careful not to make too much noise, as they didn’t really want to attract things from the sea.

Even though they were only crossing the shallow part of the sea, they didn’t have much information on the evolution of aquatic animals, so they still moved more carefully than when they were on land.

They were still on the bridge and didn’t want to be thrown into the sea, as it would certainly be harder to navigate and harder for them to make their moves.

They didn’t have much information about the sea creatures, which was why Luciel was curious and wanted to see some, aside from the zombie fish that they had already seen before.

The others might not have information about the sea creatures, but he had some, as some of it was written in the novel that he read.

Luciel knew that a lot of sea creatures that hadn’t become zombies had evolved to be even bigger than those that they had seen on land.

He wanted to see how big they had really become, so he was looking at the sea to see if a few of them would emerge, but he and the others hadn’t spotted anything at all.

Well, since they were on the bridge, it was actually good that they hadn’t seen anything, because if those creatures had really become very big, then they could certainly destroy parts of the bridge, and if they were the strong type, then they might completely destroy it.

Luciel and the others hadn’t seen any sea creatures; instead, they saw that a large section of the bridge was actually destroyed.

"Look! The bridge is destroyed!" Sophie said and couldn’t help pointing at the section in the distance where the bridge was obviously cut off.

They were a bit far, but it was obvious that the destroyed part of the bridge was wide enough.

"Are we going to continue?" Yang asked Treyton.

"Yes, let’s continue. We can just repair that part of the bridge for us to pass through. It’s still easier to repair it than going back and traveling through those densely populated cities," Treyton answered while looking at the bridge that was cut off.

After a while, they finally arrived at the section where the bridge was destroyed.

"There are really no signs of the bridge being destroyed by an explosion, or signs of waves destroying it," Luciel said as he looked at the wide section of the bridge that was destroyed.

He saw Treyton looking at the part of the destroyed bridge since they first saw it, and knew that he was looking for the reason why it was destroyed.

He had also seen the state of the bridge, and it wasn’t destroyed by an explosion or by strong waves, because there would always be signs of those things left if it had been destroyed for those two reasons.

"Yes, I’ve also been looking for signs of explosions, as a wide-range explosion could destroy such a large part of the bridge, or it could be struck by strong waves. But it seems that the bridge was indeed destroyed by something else, and not by an explosion or by water."

"Everyone, be more alert while we are here, as we don’t know if the thing that destroyed this bridge will return," Treyton warned and then started giving orders on how they’ll repair the bridge.

Treyton and the others planned to repair the width of the bridge, and they planned it for long-term use, as they were going to use the bridge again when they needed to go back.

So, there were also members who were in charge of gathering all the cars near Treyton and Dan, and they would use all those metals from those cars as materials for the bridge that they were fixing.

The destroyed area of the bridge was about 250 or 300 meters in length, so they needed a lot of metal to repair half the width of the bridge.

Of course, they also couldn’t just use the metals from those cars, so Treyton also assigned the plant users to grow vines from where they were to the end of the bridge so that it would act as another layer of support for the metal bridge that they were going to make.

So, Treyton and Dan started manipulating the metals from all the cars nearby, while Nichole and Jane got busy controlling the vines that they had to make them bigger and sturdier than the normal vines that they have.

Luciel didn’t plan on helping, as the two could do the job themselves, but he still gave them two small vines that he had grown, as he had already made those vines very sturdy, which was certainly better than the vines that they had.

Of course, even if it was already very sturdy, if they could make it tougher, then it would certainly be better. So, the two got busy making the vines stronger and making them grow longer and bigger for the bridge that they were going to make.

The two continued using their plant powers, absorbing crystals, and then inputting their plant ability into those vines again.

As for Treyton and Dan, they were also doing their task of filtering the metals of the cars, strengthening them, and lining them up at the edge so that they could readily use them when they finally had enough metals.

Actually, all the other members were doing their tasks repeatedly as required. Those assigned to collect the cars further away had to do it repeatedly, while those tasked with killing the zombies on the bridge also had to do so until the others were done with their repairs.
