Chapter 381 The First Eruption of the Volcano
[It's almost night, this kind of good dream can be saved for later. ]
Shu Lingyi was about to have wild thoughts, with the corners of her mouth almost raised to the back of her ears. Xiao Ai's words, "Just dream, you can dream about anything," successfully calmed her down.
Not to mention Xiao Ai, even the broken game system may not be so kind.
Therefore, this change can only be due to special reasons.
What could be the reason? Most likely it is related to this solar term and earthquakes.
Suddenly, I had a bold idea that earthquakes would change the surface of the earth.
Although according to geographical knowledge, landslides, ground fissures and other reasons caused by earthquakes often evolve after a certain period of time after the earthquake ends.
The appearance of the earth's surface will be different, and even the seven continents of later generations were created by earthquakes in ancient times like the blue planet.
After all, as long as the cracks in the ground are big enough and serious enough, the separation of the land will not be a problem.
Of course, this is something that will take a long time to accomplish.
But now it was in the game, she was not sure whether the game area would split into several pieces, but there would definitely be cracks in the ground.
"Do you remember what the weather forecast said about the mountains and rivers changing to a certain extent?"
After Shu Lingyi reminded him, Luo Zhiqing immediately realized: "Yi Yi, what you mean is that the multiple mines this time are actually related to the solar terms."
"Even, related to earthquakes?"
"Ah, are you two serious? The earthquake hasn't even happened yet, how can a mine appear?!"
Su Ranran preferred the explanation of "cornucopia of treasures", but...she soon succumbed to the stares from Shu Lingyi and Luo Zhiqing.
"Laoran, in the game, some things cannot be considered completely with common sense. For example, if it is given to you for free now, you will lose the mine again when a crack in the ground or a landslide occurs in the future."
“…”
Su Ranran took a deep breath, and with that forced smile she wanted to punch Shu Ling once or twice, but her expression changed too quickly, and she wanted to go berserk the previous second.
The next second I felt sad and ready to burst into tears.
"I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it, you bastard, woooooo!"
"I don't feel anything in the territory. I doubt I can feel it until I go outside."
Today is the 14th, and there has been a slight tremor outside the territory, but it is not strong and will not affect the lives of players.
"I think we should go check out the smithsonite mine over there where Instructor Su is tomorrow. I guess there will be this kind of situation there too."
"Okay, okay, I'll go there tomorrow morning. Since you want that smithsonite, I'll go and dig it up too."
"But! I'm optimistic about you."
"Hehe, Qi Xuanze has been talking about these materials for a long time. He even got that ring oil from Yan Huan this afternoon."
Now Qi Xuanze has almost gathered all the materials, for example, the formula of preservatives was developed today.
It is just the same operation as a fire extinguisher and can only be learned by chemists.
Yan Huan's burden became a little heavier.
Xin Jing was actually very happy. The busier her senior brother was, the less time he had to pay attention to her, so she could be happy for many days.
All of these players are played by the player Wenjiu, who also has a new player named Qiu Xiaoyue and another named Yue Shengliang, both of whom are life-type players.
Both of them happily followed Wenjiu to mine, hoping to mine all the graphite as soon as possible before the earthquake.
Yue Shengliang came here and planted some osmanthus trees. In about three to five days, you will be able to smell the faint fragrance of osmanthus.
Yunbao also agreed with her to use osmanthus flowers to make osmanthus cake.
Yue Shengliang and Qiu Yuexiao came to the territory together, and even stayed overnight in the same cave on the way to the territory.
The friendship between the two has been built up during their journey together.
Without many special skills and abilities, they still needed the support and protection of Bai Moxi and Su Lingjue to safely enter the territory from the outskirts of the beast tide.
Now that there are more combat players, it has become much easier to pick up people.
The two of them even chose to live in the same house, living together with Wenjiu, and mining together during the day.
Mining graphite is not much easier than mining coal. If you are not careful, you will come back with something black.
"But it's good to have something to do and to be able to contribute to the territory!"
When two people have the same will and someone to accompany them, they will always find life interesting.
Now Qi Xuanze only has two materials left, one is obsidian slab and the other is periclase.
He has prepared the other materials one after another, waiting for the arrival of the last two materials.
The next day came quickly. Su Ranran said that she wanted to dig more smithsonite and took Su Moyan with her.
Xin Jing went to the river to fetch water. She didn't feel anything in the first few days.
Because there has been an earthquake outside the territory, according to Yan Huan, it is probably still at level three, so it can only be said to be a perceptible earthquake.
The reaction has already begun to appear on the ground. Since the territory has a protective shield as protection, it is not a big deal. It will probably be one or two levels less than a normal disaster.
【Xin Jing】: "But when I went to this big river, it seemed very calm, without any earthquake reaction at all?!"
No matter what happens after a magnitude 3 earthquake, the lake surface cannot be calm!
In fact, there was still some movement on the lake, but it was far from what other players described on the public screen.
And the system weather forecast said that the sea level would change, but that didn't happen...
Xin Jing was worrying about this matter while fetching water and told many people about it.
Shu Lingyi was the second person to know the news after Yan Huan.
Her little brain raced as she looked at Zhong Qingwei who was fighting hard against the enemy not far away. Thinking of the huge amount of money he had spent on Zidun before, she immediately determined the reason.
I had wanted to ask this before, but she was too busy every day, and she was a little forgetful, so I just put my curiosity aside.
If Xin Jing hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have thought of it.
In addition to Xin Jing's information, the materials Qi Xuanze needed, and one of the last two types of periclase, was in Su Lingjue's teleportation stone.
It’s no more than twenty meters away from his smithsonite!
This is undoubtedly good news.
Everything in the territory is proceeding in an orderly manner. Compared with the Haotian Territory, which is a bit tense everywhere, the internal situation is not so peaceful due to various reasons such as resources and gold coins.
But Shu Lingyi didn't want to care about such things, as long as her 001 was safe!
Such days passed quickly, and dozens of people arrived one after another, and finally on the evening of July 17, there were a hundred people gathered.
On the 17th, the earthquake had already begun, and even the nearby volcano was moving, ready to erupt.
During these days, Shu Lingyi used all the ice except the ice for the ice cellar to synthesize the protective shield.
After the synthesis, even the temperature inside the territory dropped.
Although it didn't drop much.
The morning of this day was destined to be not peaceful. Not only did the air become hotter, but even the sky was inexplicably oppressive.
In the distance, white fog rose and spread, and a dangerous atmosphere was blowing in the face.
[Yi Ling]: "Here... the volcano is about to erupt."
As expected, as soon as her message was sent out, the volcano began to shake, and a large amount of orange-red magma gushed out and fell in all directions.
Because of the long distance, we can only see the eruption, but in fact, the eruption to a long distance is relatively rare.
What's more, after an eruption, more magma will gush out from the crater and flow down the mountain range, covering every inch of the mountain.
It powerfully plundered all life wherever it passed, and the terrible high temperature even distorted the air.
The gushing continued time and again, with the northern upper part of the shield being the first to suffer.
The players in the territory gathered here one after another, watching the molten lava with white steam hitting the protective shield. The protective shield was still transparent, but it made a "sizzling" sound.
Then after a while, the part of the molten metal that touched the protective shield began to turn black and slid down the protective shield little by little.
Many people are very curious about this, but they dare not get close.
At the location closest to the volcano, the magma flowing out of the crater has already spread over.
However, after being synthesized with ice, the territory's protective shield still looked the same, but it turned all the approaching magma into black obsidian.
To be precise, the magma that has just undergone a layer of cooling cannot be considered completely solidified.
It was still in a semi-liquid and semi-solid state. Yan Huan suggested that everyone throw saltpeter and ice cubes in it to speed up the cooling and completely solidify it.
At that time, we will organize people to break these obsidian stones and use them to make stone slabs, which will then be given to Qi Xuanze for use.
Shu Lingyi was well prepared. He used a large amount of ice to cool down the molten lava, so that the protective shield did not lose much health.
Zhang Weitian was not so lucky. Shu Lingyi told everyone to use ice cubes to form a protective shield.
This is the only way to deal with a volcanic eruption.
Cui Yuyuan also gave a hint from the side, and Zhang Weitian started making ice two days later than Shu Lingyi.
By today, a lot of ice had been synthesized, but it was still not enough.
For a whole morning, the shield was still safe, and nothing more serious happened except for the loss of blood.
But after the afternoon, the volcanic eruptions intensified, and some volcanic eruptions were even completely out of control.
The molten lava that spurted out flew out like flowers scattered by a fairy.
The distance was also very far, which resulted in some players with really bad luck not being able to dodge and being directly burned to death by the lava.
Even so, the quick method of living fossils.
The number of survivors on the public screen is quietly decreasing, and now there are only 9257 left.
At this time, some players started talking about this matter on the public screen.
He was a lucky man named Mu Lingfeng from Yudao. The magma fell from the sky and flew over 30 kilometers to his side.
He was lucky enough to discover the abnormality in advance and escaped the disaster.
There are some players like him, all of whom complain about the system pranks on the public screen.
Normally, the farthest distance of a volcanic eruption on Blue Planet seems to be only ten meters. Just like Shu Lingyi said, the system will not be easily dealt with.
This safe distance is likely to double, so many players choose their temporary residence based on Shu Lingyi's guess of a starting distance of 20 kilometers.
But those people didn't expect that they could escape the first day in the morning, but they couldn't escape the fifteenth day in the afternoon.
[Mu Lingfeng from Yudao]: "Ah, I was really scared at that time. I saw a huge ball of molten lava falling from the sky and landing one meter away from me."
[A Miao]: "Stop talking. I'm so far away from the volcano. You know, I couldn't even see it from my original position, but I still encountered a group."
Miao Yueyue was trembling as she hugged her chinchilla.
He originally thought he was very safe, after all, it was so far away that he could not even see any volcano nearby.
In the end, we still encountered a few vague globs of molten lava, and we didn't know which direction they came from.
The game area is so big and there are so many volcanoes. Now, I can come all the way here to share two groups with her.
[A Miao]: "But maybe it's too far away, so even if he flies to my side, he's still far away from me, and I don't even dare to get close to him."
[Amiao]: "I heard someone say you can't get too close to this thing."
[The Really Beautiful Queen Jian Wenshun]: "I remember it was because the lava would emit some kind of gas, and if people smelled it too much, it would do no good to the body, only harm."
[Mu Lingfeng from Yudao]: "Luckily I didn't go over to smell it... No, how come I also have this negative buff?"
Mu Lingfeng said this, but before he could smell it, he had already run a long distance at the moment the molten lava fell.
But that doesn’t mean other players won’t be driven by curiosity and go over to take a sniff.
This smell is incredible.
Many players were directly infected with negative buffs.
You have to know that people like Mu Lingfeng would just run away when they encountered something like this, but because they didn't run out of that range, they would be stacked with this negative buff if they came into contact with it a little.
The health bar continues to drop, and there is no indication of the duration of this buff.
[Mu Lingfeng from Yudao]: "No way, no way, I didn't do anything and I still have to suffer this?"
Seeing that Mu Lingfeng was in trouble, Miao Yueyue also looked at her own condition. She didn't expect this. He also had a bread suit.
There were many players with negative buffs at night, and there was wailing everywhere on the public screen.
It can almost be said that there is more or less magma near the players who have not entered the territory, it just depends on whether they encounter powerful monsters.
Shu Lingyi didn't know what this matter was, so he asked Xiao Ai, but Xiao Ai didn't respond.
However, after more than 10 minutes, Miao Yueyue was revived with full health again.
[Ami]: "Although this buff took away a lot of my health, it has already disappeared. It shouldn't be a long-lasting low buff."
[Yi Ling]: "We just need to wait and see what happens to the other players."
Because of the volcanic eruption, no one has left the territory and has a lot of time to read the news here.
