Chapter 125: The Great Wave [Subscription Requested]
Zhou Yi shook his head, there was a reef below here, and there was no sign of the sea retreating.
"The wind just stopped suddenly, and the sea water suddenly retreated, I think there must be an undersea earthquake in the vicinity, and such various manifestations are the precursors of the tsunami, otherwise how could there be such a sudden low tide in such a sea area?"
Sophia was stunned, things like earthquakes and tsunamis usually appear in the news, and she has never encountered such intense weather when she has been to so many worlds.
"Earthquakes, tsunamis...... Are we safe here now?"
Zhou Yi shook his head.
"I don't know if it's safe or not, because the ever recorded tsunami wave height is 524 meters, which was triggered by the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake of magnitude 9.2, which killed 220,000 people.
We can't do without this island in front of us, the control disk is out of order, and the teleporter can't be used, at present, on this island, this position is considered a commanding height, and there are trees to protect it, Cheng Zhi has prepared a net of vines behind us to further strengthen it.
As for the rest, we can only pray that the waves will not be too high and will not last too long, after all, we are only forty or fifty meters from the sea here. ”
The rest of the words, Zhou Yi didn't say, now it depends on whether the four of them are fateful, otherwise under such a monstrous wave, no one can survive, even if there is a profound technique, it will not be able to resist the power of nature.
Cheng Zhi hurriedly moved, after all, now he can only race against time, the fat man didn't talk nonsense, and cleaned up all the rubble that he could see in front of him.
Sophia found the compass and held it up and sent it to Zhou Yi, the compass kept shaking, as if it was out of order.
They were facing the southwest, and not far away the sky was already overcast, and a loud noise came from a place of thick fog and dark clouds.
Sophia seemed a little scared, clinging to Zhou Yi's side.
Zhou Yi paused, but still reached out to stop Sophia's shoulder.
"It means that there is an earthquake ahead, and the earthquake will interfere with the magnetic field, and the compass is out of order. Don't be afraid, we'll get through, you two come too. ”
The fat man and Cheng Zhi came over, the fat man glanced at Sophia, and poked Cheng Zhi's waist with his elbow, after all, his height is limited, and he also wants to poke his chest, which is out of reach.
"Hurry up, tie the four of us together with a rattan and make it into a pea pod, and at least don't get scattered.
This is going to be separated, there is nothing on the two of us, and we are starved to death if we are not beaten to death by the waves, so in comparison, I still like to have a good time!"
At this time, the fat man still had the heart to joke, his mentality was really good, Zhou Yi glanced at him and nodded at him.
"That's right, I'm talking about extreme cases, maybe I misjudged, but I still have to be prepared. ”
At the moment of speaking, Cheng Zhi had already made the vines, not to mention that he was really a diehard fan of the fat man, and said that let him make a pod, it was really the state of a pod, and there were some thin vines, which were directly inserted into the ground to connect the root system of these big trees.
Zhou Yi knew that Cheng Zhi wanted to let the roots of these big trees go deeper, and there was no better way to do it at this time, so let him go!
Sophia grabbed Zhou Yi's arm tightly.
"Look, the waves are coming, it's really big waves!"
As she shouted, all four of them looked to the southwest, like a wall of water that stretched for dozens of miles tumbling over.
That speed was still a white line just now, and a rumbling sound could already be heard for a moment.
Zhou Yi's heart chuckled, it seemed that the crow's mouth was broken, why were the waves so high?
The fat man gritted his teeth, but at this time he was not startled, but calmed down a lot.
Just grabbing Cheng Zhi's clothes and flesh is constantly pinching, Cheng Zhi glanced at the fat man.
"Fat brother, let go and don't let go of the tsunami and didn't kill me, you strangled me!"
The fat man let go twice, and quickly let go, Sophia had already closed her eyes, and Zhou Yi pressed Sophia's head on his shoulder, at this time, no matter what, he had to carry it raw.
The sound of the huge waves was deafening, like a wall of water with no end in sight, and the waves were getting closer and closer.
The first step was engulfed by the beach side of the crater, which was two or three meters above the top of the hill on that side, and without stopping, it rushed directly towards the positions of several of them.
Seeing that it was smashed down, Zhou Yi also closed his eyes, at this time there was no point in struggling, not being swept away by the huge waves, maybe there was still a glimmer of life.
Rumble.
The water submerged several people, all the sounds were isolated, Zhou Yi wanted to open his eyes, but he really couldn't open them at this moment, because the waves were mixed with a lot of things, and it hurt to hit his face, he held Sophia's head with one hand and pulled the fat man with the other.
Just as they were about to suffocate, the waves receded, but in fact they were only below their feet, and there was no trace of the entire crater.
Then the huge wall of water has passed, but then there is a huge wave, of course, this one is not as strong as the first.
The third wave, the fourth wave...... The twenty-second wave, this time Zhou Yi has already let go of Sophia, because the huge waves behind him no longer pose a threat to this crater.
However, the entire crater in the center of the crater is now half filled with seawater.
As the waves receded, Zhou Yi lowered his head, the pea-pod-like vines on his body had been broken, and there were many big stones hanging on the protective cover like fishing nets around him, which made people scary, if he hit his head, no one could stand it.
Tearing open the vines on his body, the fat man sat on the ground, stroked a handful of water from his face and looked at Zhou Yi.
"This tsunami has passed?"
Zhou Yi shook his head, the earthquake didn't end in one shake, and the same is true of the tsunami, just like ripples, wave after wave, there may be a break, but it will definitely not pass all at once.
"The fat man cleared the stones, it is best to build a wall in front of us, thicker to resist the waves, Cheng Zhi encrypted and strengthened the net of the vines, and now move. ”
Zhou Yi's previous judgment had already allowed everyone to escape, and as soon as he said this, they all quickly moved, and Sophia also broke free from the vines on her body and joined the ranks of cleaning up.
And Zhou Yi jumped directly on the remaining tree and tried to look into the distance, at this time the fog dissipated a lot, and the visibility was farther, as if a few islands could be seen in the distance.
Then there was another surge, but this time it didn't seem to be that big.
Zhou Yi squinted, at this distance, he could see the dotted islands, and they were very large islands, at least the south side should be an archipelago.
According to previous analyses and estimates, they should have been in the northern part of the Vanuatu archipelago, where it appears that the tsunami was triggered by the earthquake.
I remember that Sophia once said that the world just gave a hint of time in April 2010, and after recalling it carefully, it seems that in the world of 2020 there was such a memory, that is, in early April 2010, there was a tsunami caused by the earthquake in Haiti in the western part of the Solomon Islands.
Where they were, and how far away they were from the center, they were so badly affected that it seemed that the tsunami was really terrifying.
Looking at the waves coming from afar, Zhou Yi hurriedly jumped down.
"Ready, this wave is coming again, I think our current position, it should be the north of the Vanuatu Islands, and when the waves subside, we will go southwest, so that we can get to the Solomon Islands. ”
This sentence made several people suddenly have hope in their hearts, and the isolated island encountered a tsunami, and there was no hope in sight, which was the biggest encouragement.
The four of them dragged, waiting for this huge wave, the overwhelming wave was not as destructive as the first wave this time, and the height was much lower, and it did not submerge the top of their heads, but just slapped on the sides of the four people.
Wave after wave of huge waves, this time it lasted longer, but the intensity was not as strong as before, the beating stopped, Cheng Zhi and the fat man continued to clean up the rubble, and the broken vines, Zhou Yi went up the tree again.
The island in the distance is clearer, and it is impossible to see if the huge waves are still generated, and Zhou Yi is falling.
Cheng Zhi and the fat man's faces at this time were already pale, and they used the spell for a long time, and it seemed that the consumption was very large, but Sophia did not have the panic at the beginning.
Zhou Yi hurriedly handed the spirit stone to the two of them.
"While the waves are not coming, you try to take a break, and absorb some if you can. ”
