Chapter 841: Land Becomes Ocean
Zhao Pingan shook his head: "No. I checked it when I moved in. This is the highest level of explosion-proof material. Even tanks can't break it. If even it breaks, then other parts of the hull will not be able to withstand it."
Everyone felt relieved and continued to sit in a row and look out the window.
No one was talking in the room, the radio outside had stopped, and the whole room was so quiet that I could hear my own heartbeat.
I stayed in this tense state for a while, but there was still no new movement outside.
Aunt Hu lost her patience: "What's going on? Is everything alright?"
Long Cong'an shook his head and said, "Since the authorities have issued a warning, they must have discovered something unusual. We..."
Before he finished speaking, Annan raised his index finger and put it to his lips: "Hmph! Listen!"
Long Cong'an immediately shut up and listened carefully.
"The sound of water! It's the sound of water!" Li Shihan's voice trembled a little.
Maple City is an inland city. There is not even a large lake in the city, so there is naturally no sound of waves.
The sound came from far away and became clearer and clearer.
“Here they come!!”
Chu Peipei and the others had never experienced a tsunami before, so they were extremely nervous. Annan and Gu Zhiyu had seen the power of a tsunami once before, so they were even more nervous than they were.
As everyone's breathing became rapid, the lights in the room suddenly went out.
At the same time, all the super-powerful searchlights outside the hull lit up.
The light made the outside scene a little clearer. Although I couldn't see things too far away, I could already see the hill next door.
As the roaring sound of water got closer and closer, a huge wave rushed over within sight and instantly swallowed up the opposite hill.
Then the water slanted down the valley, soon engulfing the mountain and roaring toward them.
The mountain where the ark was parked was the tallest one around, but it was still not very impressive in the face of the huge waves that covered the sky.
Fortunately, this place is far from the coast, and the attack of the sea water should be much weaker than that of Haicheng and Jishan. If the ark is set up in Haicheng, they will definitely not survive.
At the critical moment, the radio, which had been silent for a while, sounded again:
"Prepare for impact!"
"Prepare for impact!"
Just after the two warning sounds, the dark sea water rushed in, and at the same time, there was a huge sound of splashing water coming from the hull and the glass.
Everyone's eyes went dark and the whole room shook violently.
The impact was much greater than expected. Everyone was thrown off the bed and hit the wall hard.
Only Fugui was not affected because he was hiding in a corner and had Baihu, a loyal bodyguard, to protect him. The others were all thrown to the ground.
Fortunately, they were in the small bedroom. If they were in the living room, they would probably be thrown directly from the sofa into the kitchen.
Seeing that the boat was about to shake, Annan made a quick decision: "Quick! Go into the closet!"
At this time, the narrower the space, the safer it is.
The group of people no longer cared about what was happening outside and crowded into the closet.
The cabinet wasn't very big, but fortunately it wasn't filled with clothes, so it was just enough to accommodate seven people.
Although the space was small and everyone was crowded together, it was a lot safer because there was no room to sway.
And if we really need to slip into space later, it will be easier for Annan to recruit people if everyone squeezes together.
In the panic, Chu Peipei did not forget to look back at the four little ones: "Nannan, what about Fugui and the others?"
The white tiger tilted its head towards her upon hearing the sound. It thought, this skinny human may look weak, but he actually has a kind heart. He still remembered them while running for his life.
But... don't worry, we have a good place to go.
Annan shouted back, "Don't worry, you go in first. Fugui and the others are big and can fit between the closet and the bed. It's no problem."
Of course, that’s what he said, but after Chu Peipei and the others all entered the closet, Annan immediately and quietly took the four little ones into the manor.
Fugui is a pregnant woman, so she naturally cannot be tossed around and thrown around here.
After collecting the four little ones, Annan also squeezed into the closet.
The next moment, the room began to shake more violently. It was no longer like before, where the waves pushed it in one direction, but it began to swing and spin wildly.
Annan grabbed the cabinet door tightly, and was held in Gu Zhiyu's arms, shaking until he felt dizzy.
The Ark must have entered the sea by now, and was tossed around by the waves and undercurrents. For several moments, it could even be felt that the direction of its head and feet was reversed.
When people are in the closet, in addition to hearing the roaring waves, they can also hear the sound of things in the living room being thrown everywhere.
When faced with a rough sea, this huge ark is nothing more than a fragile fallen leaf in the water.
Everyone prayed silently, hoping that the ship could withstand such hardships and float to the surface safely after the storm.
While enduring the dizziness of a roller coaster, Annan kept herself alert and prepared at all times. If the hull or glass broke, she would have to rush into the manor with her companions.
Among this group of people, Lee Si-han, who was born with seasickness, felt the most uncomfortable.
She was shaken to the point of nausea, and the food in her stomach kept coming up uncontrollably. She could only grit her teeth and try her best to hold it back, and when she really couldn't help but vomit, she quickly swallowed it back down.
She absolutely cannot vomit it out! Otherwise, all the dirt will have to be shaken out in the closet! How can she face her friends in the future? ?
Fortunately, after a few minutes, the situation gradually stabilized. Although it was still swaying from side to side, it finally stopped turning upside down.
Zhao Pingan breathed a sigh of relief: "The wave has passed, and the boat should have floated to the surface smoothly."
Gu Zhiyu grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "Wait a minute, wait until things are more stable before going out."
Another ten minutes passed, and the shaking became less and less until it completely settled down, and people climbed out of the cabinet one after another.
Annan came out first, and when no one was looking, he released Fugui and the others from the space.
The quality of the Ark is really good. Not only is the hull not broken, but even the power supply system is still functioning normally.
Without the waves blocking out the sun, the searchlight outside the ship illuminated the outside clearly again.
After the group of people stood firm, they were immediately attracted and walked towards the window.
"I can't believe it! We are actually at sea..."
I don’t know if it’s because of the limited light or the speed at which the seawater is invading too quickly, but at this moment, there is no trace of land outside the boat. All I can see is the endless sea.
It was hard to imagine that they were on a high mountain just now, and in the blink of an eye, they were floating in the middle of the ocean.
This scene really gives people a sense of fantasy as if they were traveling through time.
