Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies novel Chapter 519

Seeing that everyone had a gloomy expression, Li Tianyu played another surveillance feed from the file and said, "Here is another surveillance feed. It was taken from a secret laboratory in Luocheng City before it was destroyed."

As he spoke, Long Yu and Yao Ran exchanged glances because they were the ones who had destroyed the secret laboratory in Luocheng City.

At the time, they had been unable to retrieve the surveillance footage and thought there was no way to learn how The Ark had extracted abilities from ability users. But now, Li Tianyu had unexpectedly found the footage in the satellite database.

Realizing they were thinking the same thing, Yao Ran turned her attention back to the surveillance feed.

The moment her eyes fell on the familiar white room, her body trembled, and memories she had worked so hard to forget flooded her mind.

Noticing her reaction, Long Yu swiftly pulled her into his embrace from behind and then covered her eyes with his palm. He held her tightly and whispered gently, "Don't be afraid. I'm here. No one can hurt you anymore."

When he said this, the others looked at them and quickly noticed Yao Ran's pale complexion.

After knowing her for nearly two years, this was the first time Shi Xuan and the others had seen her tremble in fear. Judging by the cold sweat covering her pale face, they realized her reaction was far more than simple fear.

Jia Xiang reached out to hold Yao Ran's hand, but Long Yu grabbed her wrist. He shook his head and said, "Don't touch her for now."

Jia Xiang withdrew her hand and asked worriedly, "Captain, what is wrong with Yao Ran?"

Long Yu looked at Li Tianyu and said, "Captain Li, please turn off the recording."

Understanding that Yao Ran's condition was because of the footage, Li Tianyu nodded and quickly closed the laptop.

Only then did Long Yu let out a sigh of relief. Lowering his head, he gently whispered, "Ran Ran, it's gone now. Don't be afraid."

He kept repeating the words softly until Yao Ran's trembling gradually subsided. Still holding her close, Long Yu looked at their concerned friends.

Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Shi Xuan signaled to the others with his eyes.

Understanding his intention, Jia Xiang said, "Captain, Yao Ran looks exhausted. Why don't you take her to rest first?"

Long Yu glanced at her gratefully and nodded. "Alright. I will take Ran Ran upstairs and be back soon."

Carrying Yao Ran in his arms, he headed to their bedroom on the second floor.

Once they had left, Li Tianyu turned to Shi Xuan and asked, "What exactly is going on with Miss Yao?"

Shi Xuan shook his head. "I don't know," he admitted.
