Shancheng Earthquake Bureau.

Wuuuu!

The alarm sounded suddenly!

Director Yang Wanli ran to the earthquake monitor at a sprint pace in his leather shoes, and when he looked at the data, he was stunned.

"How come...what's going on now?"

The person in charge of monitoring was a young man who had just graduated and was assigned to the position. He was trembling and his voice was shaking too.

"At 6:58 a.m. on August 28, 2025, Imperial time... an earthquake with a focal depth of 15 kilometers was detected... the Richter magnitude is predicted to reach... 9..."

Yang Wanli's head looked like it had been hit by a hammer.

Level 9!

The mountain city is built on the mountain, and the buildings are very complex. Once a magnitude 9 earthquake occurs, people will have nowhere to escape!

There are tens of millions of people in the mountain city, how many can survive?

The loss of life and property this time is probably the highest in history! His blood flowed upstream.

"How long will it take for the earthquake to occur?"

The young man's face was pale.

"Two hours at most..."

2 hours!

Yang Wanli immediately called to report the incident, which was then passed down through the national government. After confirming that the incident was true, a comprehensive earthquake forecast was immediately issued.

All departments took action and began to organize the evacuation.

The military district troops acted quickly to evacuate and resettle the people.

Earthquakes develop very quickly.

People have already felt the tremors.

Some trees fell down and glass fell from high places.

Less than one percent of the personnel were evacuated!

"30 minutes left!"

"Not enough time, not enough time!"

Even if sufficient preparations have been made, we should start responding immediately and evacuate earthquake warning personnel as quickly as possible.

But the terrain of the mountain city is too complicated.

Among the residents, there are the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, pregnant women and children. How is it possible to complete the evacuation of the entire city in 2 hours!

Even if helicopters were used, only a few people could be evacuated!

Yang Wanli's every word was filled with tears. He blamed himself for not discovering it earlier, much earlier.

But this is a natural disaster, and natural disasters are not something that can be decided by humans!

"Chief, let's go! It's too late!"

Yang Wanli refused to leave.

"Where are you going? I won't go! If... I will be a sinner, a sinner in history!"

Even if he survives.

He is totally unable to bear the self-blame in his heart and will definitely choose to commit suicide. It is better for him to stay here and do as much as he can!

Looking into the distance, people were fleeing in panic, with screams and cries coming one after another.

There are too many people, and it’s so crowded.

But he knew that they couldn't escape. There was not enough time, not enough!

Twenty minutes before the earthquake.

National Strategic Command.

The old director stared at the earthquake monitoring map.

His eyes were red, as if he was going to stare a hole in the surveillance map.

"The earthquake developed too quickly. We didn't have time to organize an effective evacuation. I'm afraid..."

The Chief of Staff could not continue, his words were heavy and piercing.

How could this happen?!

How could this happen?!

The country was clearly getting better and better, and had already mastered controlled nuclear fusion, ready to take off into the sky. But now it has to endure such a huge disaster!

Once a disaster occurs, the country will be destroyed!

The wound cannot heal within a hundred years!

There are brothers and sisters, flesh and blood!

"No matter the cost, do you hear me? No matter the cost, if you can save one more person... then save one more person!"

The old director had been a very proud person all his life and had never shed tears, but now he was shedding tears.

We cannot stop the disaster and can only watch it happen. How helpless we are!

If possible, he would rather replace himself, but is it possible?

It is not clear whether his life can be exchanged. Even if it can be exchanged, how many lives can be exchanged?

"yes!"

Without further ado, the order was carried out immediately.

A military vehicle was driving on the road.

The driver rushed as fast as he could, wishing he could grow wings and fly over, but that was impossible!

"Cut to the mountain city."

The old director gave the order.

"Old Chief, no!"

Everyone advised that this was too cruel and no one could accept this scene!

"Cut it over!"

The old director ordered.

His voice trembled.

"We are still too weak to fight against natural disasters. In the face of natural disasters, we are just ants!"

"But someone has to remember this kind of pain, take it as a warning, and work hard to overcome it. I just hope that such a tragedy won't happen again next time!"

Everyone shed tears silently and the scene was cut away.

Watch it together.

The old director looked at Song Lanpu.

There is infinite sorrow and pain in the voice.

"Xiao Song, if nuclear technology had been invented earlier... oh... I am getting old and confused..."

The old director seemed to have aged twenty years in an instant.

Tottering and about to fall.

Song Lanpu quickly supported him.

He was also extremely sad.

He felt the same way as the old director.

The old director, a rational man who had seen a lot throughout his life, admitted that he was confused because he hoped that if nuclear energy technology had been developed earlier, perhaps there would be a way to prevent this disaster.

But it is a great blessing that we now have control over controlled nuclear fusion!

It is already a gift from God!

It's because I realized that I was dreaming about the impossible that I lost my composure!

"If, if there really are gods, all the gods and Buddhas in the sky, I pray to you, please be kind and help us get through this disaster!"

The old director knelt down.

Everyone was silent and knelt down.

It is absurd to place one's hopes on an illusory god.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!

But now, this is the only comfort in their hearts.

Song Lanpu also knelt down.

But suddenly a flash of lightning flashed through his mind.

I had an idea that even I found incredible.

If Miss Gu were here, would she be able to do anything?

At the same time, almost all Chinese people put down what they were doing and watched.

My heart is in a knot and I pray silently.

Those who have family and friends in the mountain city are even more kneeling, hoping for a miracle from heaven!

But, are there really miracles?

Ten minutes, nine minutes, eight minutes...

The earthquakes are getting stronger.

People have already felt the obvious tremors, and the ground seems to have begun to shake and crack...

Those who had not yet escaped from the mountain city were in despair, as if the sickle of death was hanging high around their necks, ready to cut them off at any time.

They might have a choice between being crushed to death by a rock or being stabbed to death by glass!

There were helpless cries and unwilling roars, accompanied by the shrill sound of cars, and some glass and trees collapsed.

Some couples, mothers and sons, fathers and daughters, etc. have already begun to say their final farewells.

The people in front of the video closed their eyes in pain.

Those who could not endure the pressure had already fallen down with pale faces.

But suddenly.

A blue light suddenly passed through the sky.

Then the earthquake disappeared.

The earthquake predictor alarm went off and returned to normal. Yang Wanli rushed over in disbelief and kept checking the data.

I'm afraid this is just a system error.

But after checking, he found that the earthquake had really disappeared and the data was completely normal!

Now there is not even the slightest vibration in the mountain city!

The friction between the mountains would have caused some small fluctuations, but now even these fluctuations are gone!

Crust slabs, extremely stable!

"Disappeared? The earthquake disappeared?"

He waited and waited, until the predicted earthquake time passed, and there was not even the slightest shaking on the ground!

He immediately spread the good news!

The people who were originally waiting for death received a message on their mobile phones in despair, saying that the earthquake alert was lifted and the earthquake had disappeared!

Everyone escaped death, sat down on the spot, and then cheered!

The earthquake really disappeared and they saved their lives!

strategic bureau.

"Quick, quick, zoom in on that blue light and remove the noise. What is that?"

The true appearance of that blue light and shadow was revealed.

That's a car.

A blue car.

When Song Lanpu saw the familiar car, he was startled.

Is it really her?!

Could it be that the disappearance of earthquakes has something to do with her?

See the blue nuclear gas, information about it, in a sealed bag, that appeared in a recent flood.

"I remember that this car also appeared during the flood, and the flood disappeared?"

The old director relaxed and felt like making a joke amidst the ups and downs.

"Could it be that this little girl Gu is really a living god on earth?"

Not many people knew about Gu Manxian's expertise in nuclear technology, and this old director was one of them.
