"Earthquake!"
"A Level 6 quake feels this intense?!"
"Get to the quake shelter!"
After the earthquake struck, people in the cities near the epicenter immediately felt it.
Fine cracks appeared in some of the shelter's walls, and cups on tables were shaken onto the floor. People hurried into structurally reinforced rooms designed to withstand earthquakes.
At first, many people had not thought a Level 6 Earthquake would be that terrifying. But when the source was close to them, the violent shaking still left them trembling in fear.
At that moment, an alert sounded from the shelter's loudspeakers. "A Level 6 Earthquake is underway. The source is very close to this city. All personnel, immediately bring your emergency food packs and enter the quake shelters! I repeat..."
The people inside the quake shelter were packed tightly together. Everyone carried an officially issued earthquake emergency kit, their faces tense as they endured every passing second.
If there was anything fortunate about it, it was that rule-induced earthquakes had a clear five-minute limit. As long as they endured those five minutes and remained cautious of subsequent disasters, they could finally relax.
Meanwhile, several floating platforms constructed with Mind Power Artifacts had been erected in the epicentral area.
The people responsible for transmitting Mind Power to Guan Tong stood on the platforms. Guan Tong himself stood atop the Earth Vein Pillar, using Shadow Tendril to coil around the pillar and keep his balance so he would not be shaken off.
One of his hands pressed against the top of the pillar, while the other held a Positive Pole Magnet. He continuously absorbed the Mind Power supplied by the Ascenders on the platforms.
After being converted through the Wordless Book in his arms, all of that Mind Power was injected into the Earth Vein Pillar
