In this special environment, Xiao Yi is like a fearless warrior, moving forward step by step with his love for life and faith in the future.
The flood outside continued to surge, its mighty waves surging against the base. The waters roared like a raging beast, displaying its boundless power. Massive waves surged one after another, like rolling mountains, hurtling towards the base. Each wave carried devastating force, a deafening roar. White foam splashed from the crests, a terrifying spectacle against the gray sky. As the waves crashed against the base's protective structures, a chilling crash echoed like the tolling of Doomsday. The entire base trembled under the immense force, as if it would be swallowed by the surging current at any moment. Whirlpools clung to the surface of the water, like dark maws threatening to draw everything around them into the abyss. Floating debris tossed and collided in the waves, sometimes tossed high into the air, sometimes swept swiftly beneath the surface. The fierce wind and torrential rain echoed with the floodwaters, creating a chaotic scene. Raindrops fell like bullets, rippling the water. The howling wind intensified the waves, posing a graver challenge to the base. In the distant sky, flashes of lightning pierced the darkness, momentarily illuminating the turbulent waters and bringing the terrifying scene into sharper focus. Each flash was followed by a dull rumble of thunder, like the heavens roaring their wrath against the earth. Amidst these turbulent waves, the base felt like a lone boat on a vast ocean, drifting precariously, struggling to withstand the unbridled force of nature.
Every so often, the base would sway violently, like a small boat in a raging storm. Each jolt came without warning, instantly shattering the brief tranquility within. It felt like the world had suddenly turned upside down, and one's heart leaped into one's throat. First, a violent tremor spread rapidly from the base's base to every corner. The walls creaked, as if groaning in pain. Items from the shelves fell, crashing to the ground with a chaotic clatter. People panicked, grasping for stability, their faces filled with fear and helplessness. The shaking intensified, making it nearly impossible to stand. The floor undulated like waves, rising and falling, then plummeting. The entire base seemed to have lost its center of gravity, tossed haphazardly by invisible hands. From outside, the base tossed up and down in the floodwaters, lifted high by the waves, then thrown back down to the bottom. Each rise and fall was accompanied by a massive splash of water, as if threatening to completely submerge the base. The violent shaking made everyone's stomachs churn and their heads spin. Children burst into tears of fear, while adults desperately tried to comfort them, their voices trembling. The flickering lights added to the terrifying atmosphere. After each tremor, everyone prayed silently, hoping that the terrifying turbulence would stop soon, that the base could withstand the ravages of the wind and waves, and preserve their last hope of survival.
"When will this flood end?" People stared out the windows, their hearts filled with worry. Huddled together by the windows of the base, they stared blankly at the flood-ravaged world. Their eyes revealed deep helplessness and fear, and every wrinkle was etched with uncertainty about the future. An elderly man, his fingers white from the strain, gripped the window frame as he muttered to himself, "When will this flood end?" His voice was filled with endless fatigue and vicissitudes of life. He thought of the once fertile farmland, now submerged, and wondered when cultivation would resume. A young mother cradled her young child, who slept peacefully in her arms, seemingly unaware of the crisis facing the world. She gazed out the window, tears welling in her eyes as she whispered, "When will this flood end?" She worried about her child's future, unsure how to provide him with a safe and secure environment in such an environment. A strong man, usually full of energy, now frowned and sighed deeply, "When will this flood end?" He thought about how his own strength seemed so insignificant in the face of nature's fury, unable to provide a safe haven for his family and friends. A group of children, normally full of energy and laughter, were silent, staring out the window. One child whispered, "When will this flood end?" The others lowered their heads, their eyes devoid of the light they once had, only filled with fear of the unknown. Voices mingled, a thick layer of worry hung in the air. They didn't know how much longer they would have to struggle against the flood, or whether there was any hope for the future. They could only pray silently, hoping that the waters would recede soon and life could return to normal.
Yet, thanks to the ingenious construction of the base's interior, it remains relatively stable, regardless of the turbulence outside. The base's design is like a meticulously woven safety net, with every detail imbued with wisdom and ingenuity. From the outside, it may appear to be an ordinary building, but its interior holds a hidden gem. Supporting the entire base is a robust and sturdy steel frame. These beams are meticulously calculated and crafted to withstand immense pressure and impact. Like the skeleton of a giant, they provide a solid foundation for the base. The walls are constructed from a special composite material that is not only highly waterproof but also effectively absorbs and dissipates external impact. Even under the fierce impact of a flood, they remain intact and resist cracking. An advanced shock-absorbing system, comprised of a series of high-performance springs and dampers, is installed beneath the floor. Whenever the base experiences external jolts and vibrations, these dampers activate, converting the impact force into tiny energy fluctuations, significantly reducing internal sway. The ventilation system and plumbing network are also strategically arranged to prevent ruptures and leaks caused by external vibrations. Power and communication lines have dedicated protective channels to ensure normal operation even in extreme conditions. Buffer zones and isolation devices have been installed between rooms and areas to further reduce the transmission of vibrations. These buffer zones are made of soft and elastic material, effectively absorbing and mitigating impacts. Thanks to this ingenious construction, even when the floods outside unleash turbulent waves, causing the base to sway like a leaf in the wind, the interior remains relatively stable. Within this, people feel a rare sense of security, continuing to hold on to this last vestige of survival.
