Suppress monsters and save the world

Chapter 417 Unexploded Volcano
"Evacuate as many residents as you can. At the same time, issue a volcanic eruption warning and let those residents move themselves." The mayor immediately issued the most standard order.

"Yes, Mr. Mayor, I'm going to contact the two bureau chiefs right now." The secretary was about to make a move.

The mayor stopped him again: "Wait, prepare a speech, I will announce it myself in an hour!"

"Understood, Mr. Mayor."

The mayor's doing this is an extra layer of insurance. If he announces it himself and adds an early warning, basically no one will doubt the authenticity of the news.

The only problem is, if the volcano doesn't erupt, he's going to get scolded.

However, all the experts have reached a unanimous answer, and the mayor is not allowed to consider other possibilities.

"Dear reporters and friends, welcome to your arrival. I regret to announce that Wood Volcano is about to erupt. Therefore, the government advises all residents living within [-] kilometers of Wood Volcano to evacuate immediately, and the government will give you the necessary help."

The mayor's speech really had an immediate effect.

A large number of reporters and media reported the news for the first time, allowing it to spread extremely quickly and widely.

And people living around Wood Volcano have also begun to take action.

The first person who saw the news hurriedly packed up his things, and by the way he called his neighbors to go with him. Gradually, the evacuation team formed a long queue.

They also know that Wood Volcano is a thousand-year-old extinct volcano,
But they dare not bet their lives.

Next to the flow of people, the police can be seen maintaining order at intervals,
Then came the roaring fire trucks, they were going to go deeper, where there were still some residents living a "primitive" life, the task of the firefighters was to bring them out as well.

The first firefighters to enter the forest reached an area ten kilometers away from Wood Volcano.

"According to the records, there should be a village not far to the northwest of us."

Three fire trucks stopped on the mountain road, comparing the maps with the information sent by the government.

"Our car cannot drive on the northwest road."

"The smaller one is still available. We are just informing. I will take a few people in."

"OK."

Immediately, a command fire engine drove to the northwest in a bumpy way.

The small village in the northwest did not receive news that the volcano was about to erupt, as the firefighters expected.

This village is a typical local Hawaiian style. The most advanced part of the village may be that it was just connected to electricity the year before last. However, the whole village does not have a TV or a radio, which leads to an extreme lack of information.

Only when young people who have gone out to work outside the village come back can they bring some fresh air to the village.

Today, a fire engine appeared in the village,

Many people in the village gathered around.

The firefighters were in a hurry, and as soon as they arrived at the village, they yelled through their loudspeakers: "The volcano is about to erupt, everyone evacuates this village immediately! Everyone evacuates this village immediately!"

As soon as this sentence came out, people in the village immediately started whispering, but no one acted.

"The volcano is about to erupt! Didn't you hear that!"

"Is it Wood?" an old man asked.

"That's right, it's Wood Volcano!"

This remark caused an uproar among the villagers.
"Everyone is evacuating, you will die if you stay here! Didn't your relatives outside send you any news!"

The firefighters had little patience, and after quick and simple persuasion, they were ready to leave.

Seeing the actions of the firefighters so vigorously, these conservative villagers could only act no matter what.

"go!"

After the notification, the fire truck immediately turned away and returned. There are five villages like this near Wood. As for those who have built a house in the mountains, the firefighters can't control them.

This evacuation work lasted for a full twenty hours, and only the last four hours were left before the volcano was about to erupt.

Geological data also changed as expected.

"How is the evacuation going?" The mayor was observing the progress of the situation at the Emergency Disaster Response Center.

"Mayor, all registered residents have been evacuated. However, our compulsory measures have met with democratic protests from some people. They wrote to the mayor's mailbox to ask for your apology."

That's right, that group of people think that evacuation from the volcano should be done, but the mayor is wrong, and it is right to let those people freely decide whether to evacuate themselves.

Well, it is freedom indeed,
"Don't worry about them, they're just clowns."

"Have all the police and firefighters evacuated?"

"Yes, they have established a cordon at [-] kilometers away, blocking irrelevant personnel outside, and now they are only waiting for the volcano to erupt."

Everyone is looking forward to it,
Four hours, two hours, half an hour,

The volcano remained silent, and the waiting people were restless.

The predicted volcanic eruption time is 24 hours, but it is just a prediction. No one would think that the volcano must erupt within four hours of No.20.

But people still couldn't hide the tension in their hearts.

at last,

24 hours. 25 hours, until the next morning, 48 hours passed,
The volcano did not erupt!

This... This is even more embarrassing than a volcanic eruption.

Not just ordinary people, the mayor, the scientists, but also Silvio and Leslie from Site 77.

"What's going on, why doesn't the volcano erupt!" the mayor roared in his office.

In the conference room outside the door, there are a large number of geologists.

They gathered together to study this abnormal situation.

"How could this be? According to the data, the volcano is already on the verge of eruption. Why didn't it erupt?"

"I have never seen the data like this, and it is approaching the highest point in history. Wood volcano should have erupted long ago."

Everyone was chattering, but they couldn't tell why.

Suddenly, someone raised a possibility.

"Could it be that our data is wrong."

"But there are at least three sets of sensing and detection instruments we use."

"The three sets of data are all wrong, and now this is the only possibility, isn't it?"

Of course it can't be confirmed, so no one agrees with this view aloud.

However, there is a solution.

"It seems that we have to go to the volcano to find out for ourselves."

Enter the volcano and observe it on the spot.

"What if the volcano erupted at that time."

With one sentence, everyone fell silent. This was a risk that had to be faced.
