Chapter 708 Earthquake
So this time, she just told the approximate date.
As the time she notified got closer, all the major bases sent all the awakened talents out of the dungeons early and dispersed them to live in various parts of the base.
Those who are still living in the underground city are ordinary people who have not yet awakened successfully.
The base did not make the decision on its own this time, but informed them of everything and let them make their own choice.
If you want to go above ground, the base will not stop you. If you want to live underground, the base will arrange people to help take care of you.
In the end, most ordinary people chose to continue living underground.
It’s not that they don’t know it’s dangerous, but they really have no fuel to keep warm.
After a year of extreme cold, all the fuel stored in advance was used up.
During the last two months, there was no more burnable hay to be found on the ground or underground.
Even the purple fire crystals in Ji He's space were sold out in the middle of the extreme cold.
If the remaining ordinary people who have not yet awakened are sent to the ground by the base, even if they wear thick coats and let the awakened people turn into beasts to keep them warm, these people will not be able to survive a night and will be frozen to death.
The cold of more than 90 degrees below zero is so unreasonable.
In this dilemma, this is a choice that must be made.
Although his life was in danger, at least he would not be frozen to death immediately.
The temperature rose very quickly, from more than 90 degrees below zero to 40 degrees above zero in less than 5 minutes.
The snow layers melted and collapsed one by one, and the entire base turned into a sea of sewage.
Looking down from above, the sewage from the base gathered together from all over, wrapped in a pile of feces and garbage, and flowed towards the entrance of the underground city.
There are also some hard objects mixed in.
This seriously affected the pace of people coming out of the dungeon.
Even though the base had arranged for them to rest at various entrances and exits early on, it was still too late.
"Quick, grab the rope and climb up!"
"Give me a hand! She's not tight! I can't pull her!"
"Hurry up! There are people behind us!"
There are several people at the gate responsible for pulling, and several people inside the gate responsible for pushing. It is so efficient.
When the water in the underground city had already reached people's waists, half of them still didn't have time to get out.
Although these people were very anxious, long rehearsals allowed them to suppress their nervousness and move forward in an orderly manner, saving time as much as possible.
The one who is responsible for pulling people is a strength-type talent, and his beast body is a mammoth.
He gritted his teeth, grabbed the person's hand inside at an unprecedented speed, and threw the person out.
The base said that time is limited, and if we are one second late, the people behind us may be buried alive.
He wished he had eight hands!
At the back, there are people with flying talents who are responsible for catching the people who are pulled out and sending them to the house next door, allowing them to climb upstairs by themselves.
If nothing unexpected happens, it is expected that all the people in the dungeon will be taken out in a few minutes.
But just then.
Suddenly, there was a huge shattering sound from the ice pillar connecting the sky and the earth.
The people still standing in the house subconsciously looked up.
It turned out that the icicles in the base began to break.
"Run! The icicle is shattered!"
When the terrified shouts were heard, at the entrance of the dungeon, the man who had transformed from a mammoth was still pulling people out.
He was sweating profusely and didn't even have time to look back.
Less than half a meter away from him, a huge icicle was falling rapidly.
Everyone who saw this scene felt their hearts wrench in their throats, and they wanted to rush over to tell the man, "Stop pulling, there's danger behind!"
The next moment, someone nearby threw out a gift, which knocked the icicle that was about to hit the man to the other side.
With a "bang", the icicle fell into the sewage, splashing a large area of water at least 8 or 9 meters high.
The wave that was created instantly swept in many ordinary people who were standing at the entrance and exit of the dungeon and crawling out.
Even the gifted person standing at the gate was not spared.
"elephant!"
A cry of surprise was heard, and the man called the Elephant quickly transformed into a mammoth. His huge body blocked the entrance to the dungeon, giving the people inside a moment of respite.
However, he was hit by hard objects in the water and was covered with wounds.
After the waves passed, the elephant shook its body and slowly climbed up.
He felt as if his ribs were broken.
His teammates quickly flew over and said, "Elephant, hurry up and leave the rest to us!"
"It's okay, I'm still fine." The elephant shook his head to get rid of the dizziness, turned around and prepared to continue pulling people.
At this moment, a dazzling white light that had never been seen before suddenly appeared, and all the talented people who had adapted to the darkness subconsciously closed their eyes.
But soon, they reacted.
Can’t close your eyes!
But it was too late.
The next second after a flash of white light, there was a violent shaking, and the sky was spinning.
The whole earth began to shake continuously.
Except for those gifted with the ability to fly, everyone was thrown away by the constant shaking.
At once, countless screams were heard from various buildings.
"Go upstairs! Go to the roof! Don't jump down! There's sewage all down there! If the ground really cracks, you'll be swept into the cracks by the sewage!"
"Run! Go upstairs! It's safe upstairs!"
Just as everyone was running around in a panic, a louder noise was heard.
The sound was so loud that it even caused tinnitus in many people's ears.
Look in the direction where the sound came from.
A scene appeared that made many people feel a chill down their spines.
The entrance to the dungeon collapsed...
All those who did not have time to climb out were buried underground.
At the entrance to the underground city where they once lined up to buy bean cakes, there was a bottomless crack in the ground that was more than two meters wide and split the entire entrance to the underground city in two.
Streams of sewage, accompanied by surging waves, were quickly swallowed up by the cracks.
Flowing through the cracks into the deep underground.
It also took away a lot of ordinary people who were still trying to climb out.
The group of talented people who were still outside jumped into the water like crazy, trying to save their families.
"Help! My mom is still in the dungeon, she hasn't come out yet! I have to go save my mom!"
"An earthquake is coming! Don't go down! The ground may crack at any time! Everyone, don't go down!"
Amidst the shouting.
There was another loud noise.
This time the crack opened directly on the building next door.
A crack more than 2 meters wide directly split the entire building in half.
Those who were still in the building and had no time to run quickly jumped out of various windows, fell into the sewage, and swam towards several other intact buildings.
In addition to these people, there were many other people standing on the roof. They didn't even know whether they should jump or whether something unexpected would happen if they jumped.
