Chapter 524, Earthquake and Tsunami

Lucas called Kong Xiyan aside and said in a deep voice, "What did you mean when you said there was a laboratory under the sea? A laboratory that can create tsunamis? Does such a thing really exist?"

"The Eastern Morning Star tragedy." Kong Xiyan looked at Lucas: "I remember that among the victims on that ship were members of the Wilson family... right?"

"That's right." Lucas nodded. He originally had two very outstanding uncles, but they both died on that ship.

"That tsunami was not an accident, but man-made." Kong Xiyan said to Lucas.

"You mean? Wait a minute, that's impossible." Lucas looked shocked. "That's a tsunami! It's a natural disaster second only to earthquakes! You're telling me a tsunami can be... caused by humans?"

"Strictly speaking, as long as the amplitude of the mechanical impact is adjusted properly, earthquakes can be artificially induced." Kong Xiyan shrugged. "A simpler method is to carry out large-scale blasting operations at specific locations, which will stimulate seismic waves. This method is now also used in geophysical surveys and fault detection.

Of course, if it can be done from top to bottom, it can also be done from bottom to top, such as an underground nuclear explosion.

Also, water is a good thing. High-pressure water injection into deep wells can also trigger earthquakes.

However, all of this requires comprehensive surveys and risk assessments in the early stages, otherwise you'll end up in jail for life, which is not advisable~"

"You'd better tell me about tsunamis. If earthquakes can be caused by physical vibrations, what about tsunamis?" Lucas still felt a little unbelievable.

"Of course, it's difficult to create a tsunami artificially, almost impossible. But you have to know that one of the causes of tsunamis is submarine earthquakes, and the tides are affected by the moon's gravity." Kong Xiyan crossed her arms and said, "It's impossible to trigger a tsunami anytime and anywhere, but if the time is right, you can create a tsunami, just like the waves you saw before were magnified into a holographic projection."

"So, the Eastern Morning Star only encountered a manageable wave back then, but due to human error, that wave turned into a tsunami." Lucas understood. "How did you know?"

"Hey, who hasn't fantasized about destroying the world when they were young? I just did some research and accidentally came up with a feasible operation method and data calculation." Kong Xiyan smiled and patted Lucas on the shoulder: "Hahaha~"

Lucas couldn't laugh at all when he heard Kong Xiyan's words. There was only disbelief and fear in his eyes.

What kind of lunatic would study this and even let her figure it out!

"Why aren't you smiling?" Kong Xiyan blinked and looked at Lucas. "You don't think the Eastern Morning Star incident has anything to do with me, do you? No, I wasn't even born at that time."

"No, I don't think so." Lucas immediately waved his hand and said, "I just think...it's great that the Wilson family has a close friend like you."

It’s great that such a powerful madman is not an enemy of the Wilson family!

"Hehe." Kong Xiyan clearly felt panic and embarrassment from Lucas. This kid clearly didn't think that way, but he acted like it was the case.

However, Kong Xiyan didn't care. She hoped that the subsequent development would be smooth.

Thinking about what happened next, Kong Xiyan looked back at Anne Wilson.

At this moment, Anne was standing by the boat, gazing at the shore with a sullen face. She lacked the perfection she usually pretended to have, and instead displayed a kind of beauty that was almost broken.

What a beautiful woman in every frame!

"What do you think of what she said?" Kong Xiyan looked at Lucas.

"Although she pretended to be Stella, she does have the blood of the Wilson family in her body." Lucas looked back at Anne Wilson and said, "I am willing to give her a chance to confess, as long as she tells the truth."

"What happens after the explanation?" Kong Xiyan wanted to ask more clearly.

"The Wilson family won't abandon any of their members," Lucas said sternly. "But if she still tries to hide it, then you can't blame me for being ruthless. As the next head of the family, I must consider the entire Wilson family."

"I understand." Kong Xiyan nodded and looked up at the stars in the sky. Suddenly, a bad premonition hit her: "Is there a telescope on this ship?"

"have."

"Give it to me." Kong Xiyan pointed the telescope at the night sky and recited the star table.

"She's quite romantic and leisurely." Damian, who was not far away, noticed this scene and chuckled, "She's still admiring the stars and the moon at this hour."

Anne Wilson looked over when she heard the voice, her eyes slightly moving: "There's nothing wrong with this."

At least she still has the ability to appreciate, unlike her. Since Alice's death, she has been living a tight and twisted life.

It seemed as if the only meaning of her life was to avenge Alice.

No matter what the cost, she wanted to make that demon pay with blood.

But the fact proves that she is really useless...

I have endured for so many years and studied hard for so many years.

There was such a good opportunity today, she had already pointed a gun at him, but still failed.

Most importantly, in that moment, she retreated.

At one point she even accepted that the demon was a god.

If the Master is God, what does Alice's death mean?

What was the hatred she had for so many years?

Anne couldn't forgive herself for that moment of betrayal.

Although Kong Xiyan said that it was because she was brainwashed by the Master's violin hypnosis, if she did not have this cognition deep in her heart, how could she have such a cognition?

It's betrayal...

Now she will not be accepted by the Wilson family, has no ability to avenge Alice, and even she cannot forgive herself.

What's the point of living for her like this?

The land was getting closer and closer, and Anne Wilson seemed to have seen human figures on the land.

Are those people here to arrest her?

Somewhere in the dark, Anne seemed to hear a tragic and melodious violin sound in her mind again. Following an extremely real gunshot, Anne rushed to the side of the boat like an arrow from a bow, and jumped into the dark sea with a kick of her foot.

Just die.

"Hey!" Damian saw this scene, and his body reacted before his brain. He rushed out and hugged Anne, who looked dead, in mid-air. The two fell into the sea together.

With a thud.

"What's going on?" Someone heard the noise and came over, screaming, "Someone jumped into the sea!"

"Quick! Bring the rope! Light! Turn the searchlight over here! Quick!"

"Two people! I saw them! Quickly throw the lifebuoy down!"

"Hey! Go on!"

Shouts came one after another. Kong Xiyan moved the telescope, looked over there and sighed heavily.

It's really like one problem after another!

"What's going on?" Lucas asked Kong Xiyan, "Does their falling have anything to do with you watching the stars? Eastern witchcraft?"

"I'll say it one last time! I don't know anything like that!"

That’s enough!
