236: An astonishing rescue success rate of 85%.

Even when the medical staff ran over with stretchers, they were still too shocked to speak.

In these past few days, they had seen countless survivors rescued from the ruins; some were severely injured, a horrific sight, requiring amputation; some were unharmed, only suffering minor fractures or hairline cracks; and some only had scrapes, able to fully recover after a few days of rest.

But someone like the person before them, buried underground for almost four days yet able to crawl out on his own, and even stand there waiting for the rescuers to approach, was truly one of a kind!

Among these, Su Yu's contribution was paramount!

However, even after everyone had settled Chen Wentao on the stretcher and prepared to return, they still couldn't believe the miracle before their eyes.

The medical staff cautiously leaned towards a rescuer beside him and asked,

"Brother! How exactly did you rescue him from underground?"

"I heard the survivor at Rescue Point Two was buried more than ten meters deep and was in a critical condition, yet you all..."

The rescuer shook his head and replied somewhat innocently,

"If I told you that we actually didn't do anything, and he was brought up through a passage dug by those Ant underground, would you believe it?"

Upon hearing this, the medical personnel shook his head like a rattle drum.

"No way! No way!"

"See, I told you and you still don't believe it! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it either!"

It wasn't just the medical staff who didn't believe it.

In the live stream, the shelter, and even Su Yu, who was on site communicating with the Ant Queen via brainwaves, everyone was too shocked to speak the moment they heard this news!

Although Su Yu had some expectations in his heart, knowing the amazing carrying capacity of the Ant colony, he never expected that these little guys would directly surpass the rescue team's speed right after they started.

They actually brought the survivor from underground directly out!

Indeed, the Ant species cannot be viewed with common sense! It's not an exaggeration for Animal World to call them a wise and united species.

Through continuous communication with the Ant Queen,

Su Yu quickly understood how this colony of a thousand Hex Tech Ants managed to do it.

In fact, Ant are not only top-notch transporters of nature, but they are also top-tier cave construction experts!

Every Ant is born with the ability to construct underground tunnels.

In complex underground caves, they can accurately find every route and plan the overall cave road infrastructure in advance.

Therefore, digging a passage from the ruins that could directly transport the survivor out was effortless for them.

In the eyes of these Ant, the survivors buried underground were like food they stored underground. Moving food is an innate instinct.

Of course, this also benefited from Su Yu strengthening their body structure modifications.

Otherwise, when facing the task of moving giant stone fragments, steel bars, cement, and hard building debris, the Ant' weak bodies alone would not have achieved such a noticeable effect.

With the first attempt, Su Yu felt more confident.

Compared to the Ant colonies working with large excavation equipment on the surface for rescue, letting them complete the entire rescue alone was faster and more efficient.

Given this, Su Yu immediately informed the Deputy Captain of the rescue team stationed at the shelter.

"Deputy Captain! I'm sure you saw what just happened through the live broadcast.

"The independent rescue efficiency of the Hex Tech Ants is more than twice as fast as when they cooperate with human rescuers. I want to halt all excavation equipment first! Let the Ant quickly complete the rescue at these twelve most urgent rescue points."

"After all the survivors are rescued from underground, then let all the Ant disperse and cooperate with excavators for rescue, how does that sound?"

"Let's strive to rescue all survivors within ten hours!"

Su Yu's words were like a hammer striking hard in everyone's hearts.

Facing the scene before them, although everyone found it hard to accept that humanity's proud unity was still inferior to the modified, tiny biological Ant.

But they had to admit!

In terms of underground transportation and rescue, these little guys completely outmatched humans.

The Deputy Captain nodded, and after agreeing to Su Yu's request, immediately halted all excavation equipment. He only allowed three rescue teams to cooperate with the hex ants in transporting debris through the underground passages.

And this order also made the audience in the live stream, who had been following the rescue progress, anxious.

"Hiss, letting biotechnology completely replace humans in rescue, is this really reliable?"

"Although the biological Ant just rescued a survivor from underground, what if that was just luck? The rescue captain's decision is too rash."

"At this point, we just need to choose to trust the country and trust the Streamer! The rest is up to fate!"

"Exactly! If one can be rescued, a second one can definitely be rescued! I believe in Brother Streamer, and I believe in myself!"

...Three hours later.

Under the non-stop work of the Hex Tech Ants, all twelve extremely dangerous rescue points successfully completed their rescue excavations!

When the last two bodies were carried out of the underground tunnels by the Ant, everyone couldn't help but close their eyes.

Although there was help from Hex Tech Flying Ant and hex ants, the brutality of the Wenchuan Great Earthquake was evident for all to see!

Despite Su Yu and the rescuers giving their all, only six people were rescued from the last twelve extremely dangerous rescue sites.

As for the remaining six, the Ant also transported their bodies to the surface.

They all passed away on the way from underground back to the surface.

Su Yu looked at the stretchers covered with white cloths on the ground, feeling very uneasy.

Not being able to rescue everyone meant that this rescue mission was not a success for him.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, everyone's life and death are destined, and wealth is in the heavens! Everyone has their own fate!

But for Su Yu, the pressure he felt in his heart still lingered and could not be erased.

However, although he felt bad, he also knew that this was not the time for sadness. Out of forty-seven rescue points, only the twelve most dangerous ones were completed, leaving thirty-five more waiting for him.

If he couldn't save everyone, then he would do his best to complete every rescue!

This was Su Yu's only thought at the moment!

...Five hours later.

The final rescue mission of the Wenchuan Great Earthquake was declared over.

All forty-seven rescue points, crushed by high-rise ruins, were successfully cleared.

Ultimately, forty people were successfully rescued, and seven lost vital signs during the rescue, achieving an astonishing 85% success rate.

It's important to know that the overall rescue success rate in this Wenchuan disaster relief effort was less than 65%, and finally, the most difficult high-rise rescue points not only didn't lower the rescue success rate but actually increased it by a full twenty percentage points!

This, in the entire history of earthquake rescue, is an astonishing figure that has never been achieved before!
