The earthquake has not stopped yet, but it has gradually weakened.
The scarlet clouds in the sky have turned from red to black, and have begun to press down thickly. Yellow turbid raindrops are falling in the strong wind, mixed with granular ice slag. The temperature outside has dropped to about zero degrees, and only occasionally remains. There will be a volcano erupting in the distance.
This strong convective weather of rain mixed with hail swept away the dust between the sky and the earth, and the Taihang Mountains in the distance could be vaguely seen.
The Taihang Mountains are densely covered with traces of volcanic eruptions.
Pillars of smoke swayed in the sky with the storm.
Long lasting.
And bit by bit, Shen Cong could tell that something was wrong. He found that the distance between himself and the Taihang Mountains was gradually moving away. The sky-eye radar could barely distinguish that about two kilometers away, a bottomless ravine was slowly trembling. It slowly expanded, separating it from the Taihang Mountains.
"Plate rupture..." Shen Cong immediately thought of the researchers in the Eastern Theater Laboratory who had deduced that the earth's crust would undergo drastic changes due to active corrosion, and the plate might rupture.
At that time, Shen Cong asked whether China would also fall apart due to the rupture of the plate.
The current situation is really similar to what should happen after the plate breaks.
"There is no way to go to the site for investigation at the moment. The edges of the large cracks are constantly collapsing. I can't get too close! The wind and rain are too strong and there are hail. The weather blocks my sight, and the disordered activity blocks my activity wave perception...I am now It’s completely blind, wait, I need to wait!”
"Plate rupture will not continue, it will stop sooner or later!"
…
one day one Night.
Although the major earthquake has not happened again, there are constant aftershocks, bad weather, and dim light. It makes people feel like they have returned to the early days of the end of the world, a moment of constant panic.
Shen Cong waited patiently in the car.
It was not until the evening of the next day that the aftershocks further weakened. Shen Cong braved the wind and snow and rode Wong Tai Sin to the edge of the crack. When he arrived at the edge of the crack, he suddenly discovered a terrifying fact that he had already guessed. The crack was bottomless, and the people on both sides The width far exceeds the sight range of Sky Eye radar.
The cracks extend from south to north and seem to have no end.
boom!
There were various noisy roars below the crack, and there was a faint red light, like magma. However, the heavy rain was pouring into the crack along the gully, and the red light of the magma was soon annihilated, leaving only the echoing Dark cracks.
"This crack is too wide to pass through!" Shen Cong frowned, "I wonder if this heavy rain can fill the crack. King Kong Fortress can be replaced by a hovercraft."
Shen Cong rode Wong Tai Sin and ran quickly along the edge of the crack for several kilometers.
Yet the results are frowned upon.
This crack really has no beginning or end. I don’t know where it starts or where it ends. You can vaguely see the scenery on the other side, but it is definitely more than five or six kilometers away.
A crack that is five to six kilometers wide is no longer a crack, but a vast river.
When Shen Cong returned to the King Kong Fortress, Hu Wei also took other iron men to inspect the situation in the west: "Chairman, we found a huge crack in the west, which is bottomless and the width of the crack exceeds the range of my Sky Eye radar. It’s at least two kilometers away.”
"You have cracks there too?"
"Is there one here as well, Chairman?"
"I'll go take a look." Shen Cong immediately rode on Wong Tai Sin and set off again, running to the edge of the crack in the west. He found that just like the crack in Taihang Mountain in the east, there was a deep crack here that stretched to no end.
In other words, the cracks on the east and west sides blocked them in the middle and became isolated islands.
"It doesn't have to be an isolated island. Now that the wind and snow have reduced, and the aftershocks are not strong, we will continue to return north to see if we can't find a way to connect with the other side of the crack." Shen Cong immediately decided to take the severely damaged big boat with him. The troops set out again and headed towards Taiyuan.
There are cracks in the east and west, but the north and south can still pass through.
However, when the convoy reached the Wujin Mountain area, everyone's hearts sank. At the northern foot of Wujin Mountain, the east and west cracks met here and turned into a huge crack that extended into the distance.
Now the east, west, north and west have become dead ends.
Shen Cong took a deep breath and said, "Go south!"
The convoy drove south in the night. A few hours later, in the darkness before dawn, the convoy had arrived in Taigu County. Here, everyone's faces turned completely gloomy, because the other ends of the east-west rift merged here again. A crack that goes nowhere.
This time, it really became an isolated island.
"Chairman, what should we do now?" Hu Wei asked anxiously.
"Wait." Shen Cong did not panic, "When the wind and snow stop, the aftershocks disappear, and the environment recovers, we will go down to the crack to have a look, and if possible, spend time filling up the crack. Moreover, such a deep crack requires It won't take long for the water to be filled, and then we can just modify the chariot and we can go there."
After hearing Shen Cong's thoughts, Hu Wei relaxed: "Indeed, there are still a lot of supplies in the car now, so we don't have to worry."
"Keep in touch with the super thunder wave and see when the communication can be restored."
"Yes, Chairman."
A few words quickly stabilized the morale of the army.
But even though he said this to others, Shen Cong was far from relaxed in his heart. It was not difficult to block the cracks. Shen Cong had enough ways to get out of here. What he was worried about was how many cracks would occur this time. The spirit of fire crawls out of the ground.
And we don’t know whether this plate rupture will continue to happen someday in the future.
What changes will happen to the earth?
Shen Cong doesn't know, but before he has evolved enough to survive in space, nothing will happen to the earth, otherwise the skin will be gone and the hair will be gone!
"We need to increase investment in technological development. All my trump cards can no longer be hidden!"
"We must concentrate the power of all mankind and crazily improve technology!"
"King Kong Fortress is going to evolve into a spaceship!"
"The earth is too dangerous, I want to leave!"
Shen Cong clenched his fists. He no longer had the joy of becoming a predator at the top of the food chain, only deep worries and a desire to break out of the earth.
Looking at the still gloomy weather outside the car, the rain mixed with snowflakes and hail was mercilessly washing away the rolling earth. The howling wind was like the shrill cry of a monster, and the slight aftershocks could hardly affect the King Kong equipped with a shock absorption system. fortress.
The scientific researchers in Hu Wei's car had been safely transferred to the King Kong Fortress.
After calming down, these people continued to study the development of Fire Cloud Totem.
An Sanshun, who survived the disaster, thankfully started working.
For them, they don't need to worry about the major events of the earth. There are strong people like Shen Cong to worry about. As long as they do their job well, it is a contribution.
The next day.
December 6th.
The activity has stabilized, the Super Thunder Wave Radio Station has finally been connected, and information from the new government is continuously coming in...
