On the pristine Earth, tsunamis are the greatest disasters humanity could encounter, not only because of their destructive power, but more because they come without the slightest warning.
Whether you're lazing on the beach or leisurely strolling through the mountains and forests, the world can be calm one moment and drastically different the next. Unpredictable disasters could strike you at any time.
When a tsunami occurs, its speed can even reach 700-800 kilometers per hour.
A moment ago, Jiang Ran's follow-up ball created a scene of impending storm.
At this moment, in the clear picture of the ball, along with the fierce waves, there are also countless life bags rising up.
Obviously, those were the contestants who didn't have time to escape.
Jiang Ran stared at the ball and took a closer look.
My goodness, probably 70% of the contestants were eliminated in this wave alone. It is indeed an epic disaster.
but……
The life-saving bag shimmered in orange-gold light, and the tsunami, which obscured the sky and appeared extremely gloomy, combined with light and darkness, life and death...
It’s really shocking!
She kept taking pictures.
“Crack!”
“Crack!”
“Ka-ka—”
“…”
"Jiang Ran!" Fu Bo was almost in despair. "It's already this late. Can you please think of a solution first..."
"We... we still have a ship, don't we?" Ren Xiayang swallowed hard, "Can we... can we take a ship..."
"no."
Jiang Ran remained unmoved, his eyes fixed on the ball tracking screen in front of him, only paying sporadic attention to them, speaking lightly.
"Forget ships. Even aircraft carriers, aircraft carriers, and aircraft carriers. When a tsunami hits, they will have to bow their heads and surrender."
"aircraft carrier?"
"What's that? Is it bigger than a ship?"
Fu Bo and Ren Xiayang asked in a hurry.
Jiang Ran: “…”
She sighed deeply.
Come to think of it, humans have entered the interstellar age, and even high-tech products such as starships have become a means of daily travel. Who would still remember the aircraft carriers that were once the pride of mankind?
But when he thought of this, Jiang Ran didn't show it on his face, but he couldn't help feeling a little empty in his heart.
Fu Bo, Ren Xiayang, and other contestants who were either injured or in urgent need of help were arguing and bickering non-stop.
"Okay," Zeng Pei interrupted them, "None of this matters at all. The most important thing is..."
"An aircraft carrier is a large surface ship that fights by carrying carrier-based aircraft." A male voice came slowly.
This voice interrupted everyone's argument. When everyone heard someone answer so professionally, they thought it was Jiang Ran at first. Then they came to their senses and remembered that it was a male voice. How could it be Jiang Ran?
They subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice and found that the person who spoke was Xu Yang.
In fact, not only were the others surprised, but even Jiang Ran's heart trembled for a moment.
"How do you know?" she asked subconsciously.
Xu Yang said: "I am quite good at history."
I see.
Jiang Ran found it a little funny for a moment.
She had overthought it before. The other people didn't know about aircraft carriers just because they were poor students.
At the same time, Fu Bo and Ren Xiayang looked at each other, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Was this really taught in history class? How come they have no idea about it?
It's really strange.
During the conversation, the tsunami came closer and the few white clouds that could be seen occasionally in the sky were now completely obscured.
The overwhelming waves rushed towards them, and the tension that had just been slightly relieved immediately rose again.
Less than 500 meters.
The waves were getting closer, but Jiang Ran stopped pressing the shutter button.
Everyone was very anxious, and Fu Bo also began to subconsciously look for topics to talk about, trying to find something to distract himself.
"Isn't the tsunami getting closer? Why don't you take pictures?" Fu Bo asked.
Jiang Ran: "I'm waiting."
Fu Bo: "Wait..."
Jiang Ran: "Wait until it jumps in front of you before taking the photo."
Fu Bo: “…” Damn, even more anxious.
Jiang Ran seemed completely unaware of Fu Bo's change in mood.
Her eyes curved into two crescents, and she thought with a smile, "This is my first time photographing a tsunami up close. I'll have to frame the finished product when I get home and look at it every night before bed. I guess even my dreams will be filled with beautiful memories."
Fu Bo held his breath for a long time and said, "...Oh."
The last hundred meters.
The waves are so close.
"So we can't escape, right?" someone asked.
Jiang Ran nodded: "Get the life-saving bag ready."
As soon as the words fell, everyone sighed in unison, but their subsequent behavior surprised Jiang Ran.
When everyone heard that there was no hope at all, they seemed to relax, even their tense shoulders relaxed.
"When I get back to the capital, I'm going to treat you to a good meal. These past few days have been really rough!"
"Everyone who listens gets a share! Old Xu, you have to treat this guest, right?"
"Hahaha, being splashed by such a big wave once is worth it in this life!"
"Please, don't talk like you're going to die, okay? It's not like we don't have a life bag!"
"Plus one, if nothing else, the experience of this race is truly amazing."
“…”
Jiang Ran looked around for a moment and soon felt relieved.
Having this kind of attitude of finding joy in adversity isn't such a bad thing.
After all, she is still one of the shareholders of the event, so she has to consider the impact more.
The last ten meters.
The huge waves were right in front of us, and the white waves were even more than ten meters higher than people.
Jiang Ran was concentrating, focusing all his attention on the screen that was tracking the ball.
At the same time, a dozen circles of light appeared around her, which were the light emitted by the life-saving bag.
The aperture on the life-saving bag was originally used as a signal to indicate the rescuer's location.
However, at this moment, the light curtain emitted by the life-saving bag, which radiated from various points and gathered together, just provided a perfect light for Jiang Ran's last photograph.
If Jiang Ran could spare some time to think at this moment, she would understand that in addition to escaping, this was also everyone paving the way for her photography dream.
Of course, she didn't have the mind to think about these things right now, so she didn't notice that there was still one person beside her who hadn't opened the life bag yet -
Xu Yang.
At the moment Jiang Ran pressed the shutter, Xu Yang pressed the life bag control button for both of them at the same time.
A tsunami like a landslide rushed past, but two golden life bags ignored the huge pressure of the waves, passed through the sea water, and then continued to rise, and finally merged into the star ship that had been waiting for a long time.
When he opened his eyes again, Jiang Ran found that his life bag had been tied up with a rope.
A few steps away, Fu Bo put his hands on his hips and said smugly, "Do you know what it means when fortune changes?"
Jiang Ran: “…”
This guy really holds a grudge.
"Untie it." Jiang Ran said calmly.
The words Fu Bo had prepared were suddenly stuck in his throat.
This situation seems to be different from what he imagined?
Fu Bo wanted to say something else when the cabin door suddenly opened.
Someone standing at the door reminded him: "Stop playing, Teacher Zhou is calling everyone to the hall. Although the competition is over, the final results still need to be carefully judged."
"Oh." Fu Bo responded sullenly.
After Jiang Ran was freed, he just got out of the life bag and grabbed the rope immediately and tied Fu Bo up easily.
Fu Bo: "What are you doing!!!"
Jiang Ran shook the rope in his hand: "Don't ask, it's just a matter of time."
Fu Bo: “…”
Jiang Ran: "Let's go to the hall."
Fu Bo: "How can I leave like this? Let me go first!"
Jiang Ran: "Can't you leave?"
Jiang Ran said as he walked out of the cabin.
As she walked, the rope in her hand naturally pulled Fu Bo behind her forward.
It looks like taking a puppy for a stroll.
Fu Bo: “!!!”
Fu Bo: "Let me go!!!"
Fu Bo: "If you don't let me go, I'll scream!!!"
One minute later.
Fu Bo: "...I really want to scream!"
Jiang Ran made a "please" gesture without even turning his head.
Fu Bo: “…”
After taking only two steps, Jiang Ran suddenly remembered something.
She turned around and asked, "The contestants with us should have all opened their life bags. Is there anyone who hasn't been eliminated yet?"
Fu Bo looked at her steadily.
Two seconds later.
Fu Bo turned his face away.
"snort!"
