The legend of Tiga

Chapter 269 The Erupting Volcano

The Shiretoko Peninsula is located in the northeast corner of Hokkaido. The climate is cold. Sea ice will appear in the surrounding waters every winter. The peninsula, which is less than 60 kilometers long, is full of undulating peaks. The volcanoes belonging to the Thousand Island Volcanic Belt are almost arranged in a straight line. In the middle of the peninsula.

Most of the volcanoes here are not extinct volcanoes, but dormant volcanoes, and there are even some active volcanoes. Frequent volcanic activities have created a large number of volcanic lakes, which are scattered among the volcanoes.

Where there are volcanoes, there is naturally no shortage of hot springs. In addition, there is a lot of snowfall here, and the snowmelt season is late, and the beautiful scenery of snowflakes and cherry blossoms can appear together. In addition, the natural landscape is strange, attracting a large number of tourists to come here, and one hot spring resort after another has been built. Or a ski resort.

But this time coincides with the end of March and the beginning of April, which is the season with the most tourists, but accidents happen suddenly at night, the ground shakes and the mountains shake, and the houses collapse, accompanied by the rumbling roar from the ground, like a prehistoric The giant moaned.

Although the locals were afraid and worried, they didn't panic. They hid in corners, under tables, etc. according to the usual practice, and waited for the shock to pass before leaving the house. I have never encountered an earthquake before, but when such a strong earthquake happened suddenly, it became a mess, and everyone ran out in panic.

After finally running outside the house, I saw a horrifying scene. A mountain in the distance was like fireworks, spouting bright flames, billowing smoke and magma.

Pyroclastic flows of hot gases, rock fragments and erupting volcanic ash roll down the mountainside under the force of gravity, drowning everything in its path.The gray torrent whistling against the ground with billowing smoke and dust,

Countless red stones of different sizes were thrown high into the sky by the huge pressure. Thousands of red lights pierced the night, as beautiful as a meteor shower, but they brought endless murderous intent. These stones fell on the ground, smashing one deep pit after another. , and smashed on the house, it can easily penetrate several floors.

The dark red magma spread out from the top of the mountain, touching the white snow, saying '呵!Bark! 'The slight sound turned into water vapor, making the beautiful snow scene disappear in an instant, but it was far from enough to stop the flow of magma, which still flowed slowly and methodically down the mountain.

If earthquakes can still be taken for granted, even the locals cannot ignore volcanic eruptions. Regardless of the undiminished vibration, they hurried out of their homes, helping the old and the young, driving and running to escape from their homes.

The narrow road was suddenly blocked by a sudden increase of vehicles, 'Drip!drop! 'The rapid horns sounded one after another, but they could not clear the blocked road with sound waves. Seeing that the volcano was still erupting, they could already smell the pungent sulfur smell. Many people simply gave up their cars and went on foot, which further aggravated the road congestion. .

There is a blocked road in front, and an erupting volcano behind, and a pyroclastic flow that will spread over without knowing when, bringing people great psychological pressure, cries and noise mixed with car horns, volcanic eruptions The explosion sound formed a sonata called Escape.

The news of the eruption of Wumen Mountain's extinct volcano quickly spread all over the world through the power of the Internet and the media. People in other places saw the news and went on with their work and life. Only those who are free Maybe click in to see the excitement.

The people can be indifferent to the disasters that have not come to them, but TPC can't. They responded immediately. As soon as the volcano erupted, they immediately mobilized the rescue force in the base and rushed to the scene by transport plane to carry out disaster relief tasks. , TPC's powerful mobilization ability is fully displayed at this moment,
The shelter, which was upgraded half a year ago, also came in handy, and it was immediately opened to accommodate the victims to enter the shelter. However, the victims had not been resettled, and tents and other things began to be built. The approach of the two shelters that were closer together was listed as a dangerous area, so the people who had just entered were immediately evacuated and moved to a shelter that was farther away.

The loudspeaker kept repeating the words "the shelter is closed, move immediately", the panic in the hearts of the people turned into anger, and they vented on these TPC staff who came to help them, blaming TPC for letting them run around and complaining about TPC Unable to stop the volcanic eruption, scolding TPC for only investigating, not predicting the volcanic eruption. But when the pyroclastic flow is approaching, no matter how angry people are, they will flee the refuge in a panic.

TPC’s disaster relief work has a variety of plans and procedures, and does not require too much attention from the top management. The people in charge of this work are busy, so they should rest and sleep, and they cannot stop eating or drinking because of a disaster in a certain place. do not sleep.

But all this changed after Zongfang knocked on the door of Jujianhui's room in the middle of the night. Zongfang entered into Jujianhui's room and said only one sentence: "He thinks Gorzan might be in Wumen Mountain."

"Wumen Mountain? That re-erupted volcano?" Jujian Hui was startled, and immediately said, "I'll go to the director right away."

Ju Jianhui immediately went to the area where the director lived, and in the name of an emergency, asked the secretary to wake up Director Sawai who had fallen asleep. Although he was disturbed in the middle of the night, Director Sawai was not at all unhappy, and he didn't even have time to change his clothes. The pajamas came out of the bedroom in a hurry and asked, "Did something happen?"

He knew Jujian Hui well, and calling him in the middle of the night was certainly no small matter.

Jun Jianhui said with a serious face: "Director, I think it is necessary to conduct a detailed investigation of the underground of Wumenyue Volcano."

Director Sawai stopped feeling sleepy, and immediately asked, "Why?"

"The Gorzan who appeared in the grassland at the beginning crossed the ocean to Akita from the ground." Before Ju Jianhui could finish speaking, Director Sawai replied, "Do you suspect that the re-eruption of Mount Wumen is related to Gorzan?"

"Yeah!" Ju Jianhui nodded, and said: "The eruption of Wumen Mountain volcano is still going on, and the intensity is getting higher and higher every time. This is too strange. If Gorzan is really responsible, then the disaster may exceed Than we imagined."

Director Sawai’s face also became serious. He turned on the display screen on the wall and found the map of Mt. Wumen. It was only fifty kilometers away from the place where Gorzan was buried. , Director Sawai couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

If Gorzan really caused the eruption of Mt. There is no shortage of volcanoes.
