People in America: My Uncle Don Quixote
Chapter 438 Man or God?
Chapter 438 Man or God? (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Let me see, let me see!"
Anya's entire face was crammed into the camera lens, and even the distorted image couldn't diminish her beauty.
"Show me outside!" she exclaimed excitedly, directing Levi. "I've never seen what a hurricane looks like in my entire life!"
"It hasn't even started yet," Li Wei said helplessly as he walked to the window, opened it, and stepped onto the balcony. "Look, all we can see right now is a huge expanse of dark clouds. The weather station says it won't make landfall until around 4 a.m. on Howard Beach."
"Hey, be careful, don't get blown away by the wind," Anya scolded, looking at the camera. "Well... there really isn't much to see."
As she spoke, she began to complain again: "Everything is normal here in Riverdale, and people are even taking walks downstairs. Here, it's just normal for it to get dark. I should have stayed with you on Long Island."
"Riverdale is relatively inland, and it's a wealthy area, so it's normal," Levi said with a smile. "I'll see if the helicopter can land tomorrow, and you can come and take a look at the mess."
"I wonder how much of your garden is left?" Anya picked up her phone and went to the bathroom, washing her face and putting on a face mask. "If I want to completely change the style, can I find a designer I like? I really like her style."
"Whatever," Li Wei said, a man with little artistic talent. "I don't care about this."
"Hehe, you're so nice," Anya said with a smile after putting on the face mask. "Here's a reward for you."
As she spoke, she loosened the strap, and the phone camera shook rapidly.
Li Wei only felt a line of pink brush against the white background.
"You're trying to seduce me, aren't you?" he said, feigning anxiety. "I'll come over right now and punish you severely."
"Come on, come on," Anya made a face at him, "I recently bought a new uniform, it's a little devil style."
"But why can't I attach the tail?" She tilted her head, gently biting her index finger with her pearly teeth. "The end is round, and I don't know how to tie it. Darling, would you like to teach me?"
She flirted with Li Wei while talking about adult topics.
"Knock knock knock!" Katya's knocking sounded, and Anya instinctively screamed.
"Miss Anya, you should rest now." Butler Katya's voice was very flat, as if she hadn't heard Anya's words from just a door away at all.
"Aunt Katya!!!!" Li Wei could see Anya's face turn bright red quickly. "Next time you walk, make some noise!"
"Okay, you should get some rest." Katya left in a lighthearted tone, making a stomping sound on the floor as she went.
"Alright," Li Wei said, suppressing a laugh, "you should get some rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow."
Anya hung up the phone, her face flushed.
Next, Li Wei made a brief phone call to Elizabeth, saying very little. Elizabeth was definitely going to be working overtime all night.
As for Don Quixote's side, as soon as Li Wei made the call, he heard Lily's scream and Don Quixote's chuckling voice.
"I! Don't! Want! To! Learn! Horse Riding!" she screamed. "You big liar! I want to go back to New York!"
Don Quixote chuckled and said, "There's a hurricane in New York right now, so we can't go back."
"France is so elegant, Uncle," Li Wei joked. "And why is there a soprano singing in the background?"
Don Quixote laughed heartily: "Lily is being difficult and doesn't want to go to her riding lesson."
"Let's discuss some terms," Li Wei said after thinking for a moment. "Is there anything she wants?"
"Brother Li Wei?!" Lily's voice rang out. "Please save me! I don't want to learn horseback riding anymore!"
"I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to help you," Li Wei said helplessly. "Just learn it."
Don Quixote picked up the phone and steered the conversation back to the main topic: "Is everything alright on Long Island?"
"It's alright," Li Wei glanced downstairs, where construction workers were gradually coming in from outside. "The reinforcement is all done."
"That's good. Be careful," Don Quixote said.
"Okay, I just wanted to call and let you know," Li Wei said. "I'm about to rest too, you guys go ahead with your work."
After hanging up the phone, Li Wei went downstairs and met with the housekeeper and construction team.
"Thank you for your hard work," Li Wei said. "I'll have the finance assistant contact you tomorrow. Each of you will receive $5000 in overtime pay. I'm really sorry to have you working overtime during a hurricane."
Upon hearing this, the workers had no complaints whatsoever. They began to sing praises of Li Wei, wishing they could work overtime to reinforce Li Wei once more.
"It'll be completely dark any later," Li Wei smiled and refused. "The hurricane is coming tonight, let's hurry back."
After the workers left, Li Wei also paid the housekeeper overtime pay. The housekeeper, along with the cook, maids, and others, lived in the next building and were ready to respond to Li Wei's calls at any time.
Finally, in the vast Long Island Manor, only Li Wei remained.
Li Wei looked at the empty living room, the wooden strips sealing the glass and windows, and let out a long sigh of relief.
Today is his moment to advance to the Gold rank, and the entire city of New York is his stage.
At 4 a.m., Li Wei heard the wind outside the room intensify and the leaves whistling through the air. He then took off his headphones, paused the game, and got up to go outside the window.
He looked out through the reinforced gaps and saw that the sky outside had changed from black to a grayish-white.
The sand on the beach was thrown into the sky, and the raindrops were no longer raindrops, but were torn apart by the wind at a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour, forming one rain curtain after another.
The trees in the manor's garden, which had just been reinforced with steel cables that day, now bent in unison as if trampled by an unseen giant's foot.
In the garden of the neighbor's villa, a large tree that hadn't been properly reinforced was uprooted by a tremendous force and crashed into the swimming pool with its crown facing down.
However, before it could even take a full sip of water, it was blown over the courtyard wall by a huge crosswind and rolled outwards.
The distant coastline had completely disappeared, and the sea and sky had merged into one, turning into a churning, dark gray monster.
Super Hurricane Vespera is approaching.
Li Wei took some photos and recorded some videos, intending to send them to Anya, Don Quixote, and others the next day.
After doing all this, he put his phone on airplane mode, changed into clothes that didn't display any personal information, pushed open the door to the fourth-floor rooftop, and went out.
As soon as he stepped outside, a strong gust of wind blew Li Wei off balance.
Fortunately, in the next instant, Li Wei's [Air Step (Level 2)] came into play, firmly sticking him to the ground.
However, the fact that it almost blew him away despite his weight of over 95kg truly makes it worthy of being called a super hurricane.
After regaining his footing, he calmly activated [Vision Concealment], lifted his feet off the ground, and initiated [Flight].
It flew off towards the edge of the rooftop.
However, as soon as he took off, Li Wei regretted it.
In a hurricane with winds exceeding 200 kilometers per hour, the air acts more like a mixer than a stable space.
His body was tossed about in mid-air, and the irregular air currents surging from all directions made it difficult for him to reach his maximum speed.
Suddenly, a violent gust of wind, like a solid wall, slammed into him, blowing him horizontally nearly 300 meters.
The rice grains crashed into a parking lot.
Water splashed everywhere, and Li Wei crashed directly into a Ford pickup truck, denting the entire vehicle.
"Sorry," Levi said, getting up from the badly damaged pickup truck and removing a clump of seaweed from his head. "I believe you have insurance, my good neighbor."
People living on Long Island are all worth at least a billion US dollars, so they definitely have insurance for their property and don't worry about damage.
You can't force it to fly.
Li Wei quickly adjusted his strategy.
Fortunately, 10.0's spirit allowed him to begin to understand the rhythm of the wind, and there were also a few seconds of breathing space between gusts.
Then, he took to the air again.
This time, Li Wei controlled his power, as if he were flying with the wind rather than fighting against it.
A rock hit Li Wei, shattering into pieces, but Li Wei continued towards the eye of the storm unharmed.
The eye of the hurricane was undoubtedly the testing ground. Li Wei recalled the hurricane path map published by the weather station and drifted towards the eye.
While swinging through the air like Spider-Man, Li Wei carefully observed the New York suburbs, which seemed to have become a ghost town.
Without the cacophony of car horns and the oppressive presence of skyscrapers, the entire city seemed to breathe a sigh of relief for the first time, allowing its citizens to rest at home for a few days.
However, the cost may be quite high.
However, Li Wei has no intention of being the savior of the world; he can help out when he sees something in front of him that he can't stand.
Are you really going to ask him to sacrifice everything and become a superman for all of humanity? Forget it, that would just exhaust him.
He just wanted to live freely and without restraint with the people around him in this world.
As he floated in the sky, his thoughts drifted along with him.
Ordinary humans can only stay at home, but he can go wherever he wants.
Is he still considered human? Or has he already been called a demigod?
As Li Wei pondered this, he checked the status of the person he had set up the beacon of protection for.
Don Quixote: Physical strength 100%, mental strength 94%, still declining, probably trying to persuade Lily.
Elizabeth: Stamina 82%, Spirit 68%. She must be working overtime late at night. Although Levi's Knight Aura can remotely restore her status, it is already 4 a.m., and it is still not enough to completely resist the exhaustion.
Anya and Kim Hae-eun are both at full strength and energy, so they should be sleeping.
"Everything's alright." Li Wei was relieved and chased after the eye of the storm.
A few minutes later, Levi had already flown over Howard Beach.
The eye of the storm was still some distance from the beach, so he planned to wait there.
Suddenly, he vaguely heard something.
In such an extreme environment, the sounds around you are far beyond ordinary noise; to an ordinary person, it sounds more like a jet fighter constantly whizzing past their ears.
However, Li Wei's hearing still allowed him to hear the sound of car horns not far away, and it was very rhythmic.
Li Wei tilted his head to confirm the direction.
On a residential street in Howard Beach, an uprooted oak tree lies across a Ford Taurus, its front end almost touching the ground.
The worst part is that, due to the low-lying environment of Howard Beach, the floodwaters have already submerged the wheels and are still rising.
Inside the driver's seat, a middle-aged man was struggling desperately.
