Chapter 152: Earthquake
The sound of thunder rumbling from the depths of the earth, mixed with the sound of falling stones, forced Dr. Wells to suppress his fear, and stood still.
However, he soon discovered that Mr. Karn was right, and although the Captain's Peak was still turning, and the resulting earthquake caused rockfalls to tumble down the mountain from time to time, it was surprising that none of the flying rocks had fallen within his and Mr. Karn's foothold.
Dr. Wells looked up at the night sky, tonight was low and cloudy, the visibility was not high, he could only vaguely see the general outline of the captain's peak and hear the sound of flying stones rolling down, but Dr. Wells seemed to feel an invisible liliang in the sky above his head, covering all the flying stones.
Compared to Dr. Wells, Colonel Parker was not so calm.
The moment he felt the ground shaking, Colonel Parker reacted immediately and immediately shouted: "Everyone be careful, there is an earthquake, all the team members immediately find a place to hide!"
The Green Guards were well-trained, and although they wore relatively heavy tactical attack armor, most of them quickly returned to their armored vehicles parked in the clearing, while others chose to find a place to hide.
Due to the distance from Captain's Peak and the darkness of the night, Colonel Parker and his team did not notice the strangeness of Captain's Peak at the first time.
However, the surveillance personnel in the car saw a shocking scene through the real-time footage from the night vision camera on the helicopter overhead.
The majestic Captain's Peak slowly rotated around the axis of the mountain as if it was being pulled by some mysterious liliang.
Colonel John Parker had just returned to the command car. I saw the monitor pointing to the screen with an incredulous look and said, "Oh my God, Captain Peak...... Captain Peak moved......"
Colonel John Parker turned his gaze to the screen, his face instantly glazed.
In fact, at this time, not only Colonel John Parker, but also the pilots of the Apache helicopter gunships hovering over them, and a group of American dignitaries in the Pentagon's underground command center thousands of miles away, their eyes were almost as wide as brass bells.
"Heavenly ...... Oh my God, could it be that the Karn base is really below Captain's Peak?"
Inside the command center, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton covered her mouth and exclaimed.
But at this time, almost no one cared about what she said, and everyone was stunned by the incredible scene in front of them.
Know that Captain's Peak has stood in the Sierra Nevada Mountains for hundreds of millions of years. As the largest granite boulder on Earth. Its mass is in the hundreds of millions of tons, and now the Karn only use it as an entrance to a subsistence base.
What a great power this is!
The command center fell silent, and a few people wanted to say something, but found that their mouths were dry. I can't get a word out of it.
Previously, when Mr. Kahn said he was going to Captain's Peak. The U.S. government has secretly dispatched a team to conduct a scientific expedition to Captain's Peak and nearby mountains. Hopefully something will be discovered. However, even synthetic aperture radar, which can penetrate the surface, has not detected any underground structures.
Later, in order to allow Mr. Kahn to reach Captain's Peak, the FBI did not hesitate to plan the Los Angeles jewelry robbery, and the National Guard even went out to clear the Yosemite National Forest of visitors.
But no one expected it. Mr. Karn was able to make such a big move at Captain's Peak.
…………………
The town's villas near the Yosemite National Forest are lit up with only a few lights.
It was not early, Chen Xin was dozing off on the table, and his laptop was already full of words.
In the past few days, in addition to eating and sleeping, he has been writing game copywriting for "War Front", Yu Shijian was curious about what Chen Xin was doing in the room all day, Chen Xin did not hide it, and said that he was writing games, Yu Shijian suddenly lost interest, but he admired Chen Xin's energy.
Chen Xin was sleeping soundly, and the room suddenly began to shake slightly, and the glass on the table also made a clattering sound.
"Old Bean, wake up, something happened!"
The steel hammer jumped out of the laptop in one fell swoop!
……………
The earthquake lasted about five minutes, and Professor Wells estimated that Captain's Peak had turned at least ninety degrees before it slowly stopped.
Just when he was still wondering what would happen next, the rock wall in front of him suddenly lit up, and the sudden light pierced Professor Wells's eyes, and he blocked his eyes with his hand for a while, and Professor Wells realized that the rock wall in front of him had actually formed a circular arch more than two meters high.
"Mr. Karn, what is this?"
Mr. Kahn said, "Professor Wells, come with me!"
With that, Mr. Karn walked straight towards the arch.
Professor Wells gritted his teeth and hurriedly followed.
Upon entering, Professor Wells discovered that the interior of the arch was only an elevator-sized cubicle. The cubicle didn't know what material it was made of, emitting a soft silver light, and when he turned around, the outside of the arch was black and swarthy, as if it was another shijie.
In the next second, a magical scene happened.
The black arch was suddenly wrapped in silver light, and wherever the silver light went, the black dissipated, and in an instant, the arch disappeared, leaving only this compartment full of silver light.
Mr. Kahn waved his hand at Professor Wells, and a transparent blister suddenly appeared out of thin air in the cell, enveloping Professor Wells's head.
Professor Wells hurriedly reached out to touch the blisters that appeared out of thin air, and strangely, Dr. Wells's hand actually penetrated the blisters directly, but the blisters did not change at all.
Professor Wells put down his hand, a little bewildered, and said, "Mr. Kahn, what do you mean by that?"
Mr. Karn chuckled twice and said, "Don't be afraid, Professor Wells, I won't hurt you. In a few moments this space will be filled with air suitable for our Karn people, and this bubble will act as a filter, and you will still be able to breathe the air of the earth. ”
Professor Wells's originally tense heart slowly relaxed, and he sighed softly, and just as he was about to ask Mr. Karn what he was going to do next, he saw that the area of the silver cubicle suddenly expanded rapidly, and soon formed a huge space of thousands of square meters.
Professor Wells rubbed his eyes and took a few more steps, he was very sure that the space he was in was only a few square meters in size, but almost instantly, this space had expanded to thousands of square meters.
Professor Wells said incredulously, "Mr. Karn, how did you do that?"
Mr. Karn did not reply, but kept waving his hands.
At that moment, a magical scene happened, as if there was some kind of magic in Mr. Karn's hands, and with each movement of his movement, new facilities appeared silently in the silver space, seats, consoles, holographic projections, and all sorts of things that Professor Wells had never heard of.
At some point, the dome of the space became transparent, and the silver light was replaced by the starry night sky!
Professor Wells stared blankly at what was in front of him, unable to comprehend what was happening in front of him, Karn's technology felt more like magic than science.
Everything was so unbelievable that with a wave of Mr. Karn's hands, a chair that was clearly several sizes larger appeared beside Dr. Wells.
Mr. Kahn said, "Professor Wells, please be seated!"
Professor Wells sat down with some trepidation, not realizing that the ease and egalitarianism he had had with Mr. Kahn had vanished, replaced by trepidation and uneasiness about the unknown.
Mr. Karn turned, and before he knew what he had done, the life-sustaining equipment on his body suddenly dissipated into thin air, and the next second, a white robe wrapped around his body.
Professor Wells's expression froze, as if he had thought of something, and his face turned pale at once.
Mr. Kahn smiled and said, "Professor Wells, I would like to thank the American government for preparing this set of life-support equipment for me, which allowed me to return to the base smoothly, although I know that the self-destruction device of the life-support equipment is in your hands, but since you did not choose to let it self-destruct, then I will not harm you......"
Mr. Kahn's tone was unhurried, but every word was like a hammer, and it slammed into Professor Wells's heart.
Professor Wells's cold sweat suddenly broke out from his forehead: "Ka...... Listen to me, Mr. Karn......"
Professor Wells was about to stand up, but in the next second, he felt an unknown liliang shackle himself to his chair, which made him unable to move at all. (To be continued......)
