Many people may have seen it in movies and TV, but the shock is far less than one ten thousandth of seeing it with your own eyes.
The plume of smoke and heat erupted from the volcano rushed up to a thousand meters in the sky, and the volcanic ash it raised dyed the blue sky and white clouds gray, shrouding the entire vicinity of Wumendake in spectacular volcanic clouds.
The wind carries the volcanic ash sprayed high into the sky farther away. The closer you are to Mount Kirimon, the lower the visibility, the stronger the smell of sulfur in the air, and the more volcanic ash falling from the sky.
Looking down from a high altitude, it looks like a gray cover covering the earth and blocking the sun, making the earth below look like dusk or even night during the day.
Fields, houses, roads, etc. are all covered with a thin layer of gray-white volcanic ash, and no other colors can be seen. The trees that have just sprouted have turned into charcoal, and the cherry blossoms that have just bloomed have turned into ashes.
The silence was terrible, and no sound could be heard, because all living things here were killed by the pyroclastic flow composed of high-temperature gas, rock fragments and volcanic ash, even if they were lucky enough to escape the first wave of high-temperature and high-pressure
After the impact, you will also die quickly and painfully due to inhaling too much volcanic ash, which solidifies in the lungs.
The only good news is that the road is easy to drive, because the high temperature has melted all the snow or even evaporated it. The air and the ground are terribly dry, and the skin feels hot when exposed. Therefore, the TPC rescue teams entering the volcanic ash-shrouded area all wear high-level clothing.
Wearing protective clothing and masks with filters, without exposing any skin, their mission is to search for possible survivors.
And this was the TPC rescue video that Munakata played to Chiba Makoto in the car on the way to Mount Kirimon, letting Chiba Makoto, who had never experienced a volcanic eruption, know why TPC sent underground Pippa tanks even though they knew the danger.
To cool down the magma at the bottom of Wumen Mountain.
Because the greatest threat to humans from volcanic eruptions is not magma, but volcanic ash. The volcanic ash thrown high into the sky will float with the wind. The higher the density, the more sunlight will be blocked, the lower the visibility of the ground below, and it will also cause atmospheric pollution.
, acid rain and a series of secondary disasters.
The current eruption level of Mount Kirimon has caused thin volcanic ash to be detected in the southernmost tip of Hokkaido. It can be expected that the incidence of respiratory diseases will increase significantly in many areas of Hokkaido.
Each time the eruption level increases, the damage caused will double. Right now, we are only evacuating the villages near Mount Kirimon. If one or two more levels are added, the entire Hokkaido may have to be evacuated, and the volcanic ash can float to big cities.
Even across seas to other continents.
After Chiba Cheng understood the dangers of volcanic eruptions, Munakata said: "So, even if Golzan is underground, the victory team must go down to prevent the magma from continuing to gather."
Chiba Cheng didn't say anything, just stared at the screen to see the situation outside at Mount Wumen. It was obviously broad daylight, but the world was as dark as dusk. And this was not yet at Mount Wumen. The concentration of volcanic ash near Mount Wumen was even higher.
, I guess it will be even darker inside.
The dead creatures and volcanic ash covering the ground of houses and the rescue workers wearing protective suits struggling to search and rescue in the disaster area are clearly telling Chiba Cheng that this is a real world, there will be no volcanic eruptions, but the sky is still clear.
BUG.
The only good thing is that the Feiyan did not use a traditional internal combustion engine. Otherwise, it would have crashed due to volcanic ash getting into the aircraft engine and causing engine damage before it even reached Wumen Mountain. But even so, the volcanic ash would still give the Feiyan a
The flight caused a huge impact, and it took several times longer to land on the ground.
The hatch of Feiyan 2 opened, and Munakata drove the car out of the cockpit. Chiba Cheng suddenly saw the gray sky in the distance, and a glimmer of light in the gloom, which was the erupting Mount Kirimon.
From time to time, a volcano will have a wave of fire rain falling from the sky, making the area near Wumen Mountain as terrifying as a flaming hell.
Zongfang drove the car to a nearby shelter. It was breakfast time. Refugees with frightened faces walked out of the temporary tents. They lined up with bowls and chopsticks to serve steaming soup and rice. There were also a large number of rice and soup piled next to them.
Supplies such as mineral water and instant noodles.
Munakata came here in the name of understanding the situation in the shelter, but in fact he sent Chiba Makoto and said: "It's very safe here. You can stay here. You can interview the people affected by the disaster like they did."<
/p>
Zongfang is talking about the TV truck parked next to the shelter. The three letters KCB are clearly painted on the door. It is also the only news media in this huge shelter. It is interviewing the victims and asking questions yesterday.
The scene during the late volcanic eruption was actually broadcast live.
The adults were all frightened and recounting the horrific scenes last night, while some of the children who should have gone to school happily were squatting on the ground, some were looking eagerly at the place where food was distributed, and some were crying and wanting to go home. But they are lucky, because they are still alive and escaped safely. According to the current TPC statistics informed by Munakata, at least hundreds of people can be confirmed dead, and more missing people should be confirmed as dead in the future.
Zongfang was about to leave, but he heard Chiba Cheng ask: "If Golzan leaves Wumendake, can you completely cool the magma at the bottom of Wumendake and let it become an extinct volcano again?" p>
"The freezing rays carried by the underground Pippa tank can be fired twenty times, and can complete the task of cooling the magma at the bottom of the Kirimondake volcano three times."
Chiba Cheng nodded, glanced at Munakata's car, and asked, "How far can your car get to Kirimon Takeyama?"
Zongfang thought about it seriously and said: "At present, it can be close to the distance of three thousand meters. If it is any closer, it will be dangerous. After all, this is not an armored dram vehicle. It only has better performance than civilian cars."<
/p>
Looking at the victims in the shelter, and then at the 'dark clouds' composed of volcanic ash that were still approaching, Chiba Cheng said with determination: "Okay, lend me your car, and... you can
Go underground from the northeast to completely cool the magma in Wumen Mountain."
Zongfang looked back at Wumen Mountain. Their current position was southwest of Wumen Mountain. He didn't ask a single word, but just nodded to Qianye Cheng and said: "I understand, the underground Pippa tank will be on the second day of the war."
The mission will start in ten minutes. I have to rush there. Goodbye!"
After saying that, Zongfang put the car keys on the roof of the car, then turned around without any hesitation to find the people in the shelter, borrowed their car, and rushed to meet the victory team.
