542. Source, Terrifying Vortex
The live stream was turned on.
Kang Chu was circling on the sea at this moment, and was even gradually going deeper. Although it was not very clear in the night, it was not like he could see nothing at all.
"Hey everyone, you can see that right now. There is some wind and small waves on the sea, but it doesn't seem to be related to a tsunami."
"Could it be that the time hasn't come yet?"
"Okay, guys, if you send me a hundred rockets, I'll risk my life to go with you, bring my live streaming equipment, and go to the open sea to take a look!"
"..."
Hearing the translator's words, Bob's face darkened. "Give him a hundred!"
"Tell him to go quickly!"
Everyone: "???"
The secretary frantically recharged the account, and a moment later, Kang Chu saw her one hundred rockets...
"666, thanks to Bob for sending a hundred rockets. So he's a foreign friend?"
"But it's okay, I, Kang Chu, keep my word. My friends, watch closely, we're heading to the outer sea right now!"
Kang Chu was excited.
The main reason is not that a hundred rockets are valuable, but that these hundred rockets attract a large number of viewers!
Now that we've gained enough popularity, it's time to continue exploring!
"Look!"
Bob curled his lip and said disdainfully, "Even if they grow wings and become Superpower User, these people are still so poor and so ignorant."
"A hundred rockets are all it takes to get him to do things. Isn't that the kind of person we should try to win over?"
"What exactly are you doing?"
"If a hundred rockets aren't enough, then a thousand, ten thousand, even a hundred thousand or a million! As long as we can get Superpower User to work for us, that's fine!"
Why are you all so stupid?
"So far, we haven't been able to win over a single person?!"
Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent, but their eyes rolled back, and they cursed inwardly.
Damn it, that's easy for you to say.
Who doesn't know that they use money and beautiful women to win people over and co-opt them?
But the key question is, do you fucking think we have a chance?!
These people have all registered there and are under 'strict protection,' our people have absolutely no way to get in touch with them!
Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake, so are you expecting us to go and fight the 'local dragon' head-on?
It was just that you stumbled upon the fact that you could send money through live streaming by accident...
"Snort."
Seeing that they remained silent, Bob became even angrier, his dark circles under his eyes trembling. "By the way, what's the condition of that cultivator's corpse?"
"Recovery has begun!"
Someone responded, "Everything is normal at the moment. There are no signs of life on the body. It is estimated that it will be safely recovered tonight."
"Good!"
Bob breathed a sigh of relief, "After so long, there's finally some good news. Now that we have the body of this cultivator, we can conduct our research."
"Make sure all relevant departments are fully prepared, and don't let me down again!"
"I want to see the research results as quickly as possible!"
"Yes, Chairman."
The secretary replied, "Everything has been arranged. Our Eagle Country's top anatomy experts, autopsy experts, and experts in biology, physics, and chemistry are all on standby at the base."
"At the same time, the most advanced laboratory has been set up. As soon as the body is successfully returned, we can start the relevant research immediately."
"That's more like it!"
Bob nodded slightly. "Hmph, you guys tried to refuse my requests time and time again, if I hadn't insisted..."
"Where can we get this cultivator's corpse?!"
"This could very well be the key to unlocking the door to immortality cultivation in our Eagle Country, do you understand?!"
At this moment.
Someone who disliked him said, "But shouldn't the real key be with the exchange students?"
"As per our previous agreement with the Resident Happiness Living Department, once their Spiritual Qi Revival, they will start cultivation courses and classes as soon as possible, and we will be able to send a group of exchange students to study there."
"Once they get there, they'll naturally be able to get the 'key,' right?"
"You don't know anything!"
Bob cursed, "Nobody knows more about cultivating immortality than me!"
"No one understands the Resident Happiness Living Department better than me."
"They will never seriously teach our people how to cultivate immortality, so we still have to rely on ourselves!"
"Alright, enough talk, you'll find out later. Let's continue watching the live stream!"
Boom!
Deep in the South China Sea.
Suddenly, waves began to roll.
Wave after wave, at first not so fierce, but as time went on, they grew increasingly terrifying...
It was especially terrifying when the sky gradually turned a pale white.
Lin Fan sensed the problem with his Divine Sense and rushed over immediately...
Then, he discovered the source of the problem somewhere in the South China Sea.
A vortex appeared out of nowhere, but at this moment, it was extremely terrifying.
The surrounding waves were turbulent, constantly rising and falling, and a large number of marine creatures were caught in the whirlpools and could not escape.
Then, it directly 'sucked' in an unknown amount of seawater from the surrounding area, forming an extremely astonishing giant wave!
The giant waves crashed down, but before they could go far, they were 'sucked' back by the whirlpool, and then formed an even more terrifying giant wave...
Again and again, in an endless cycle.
Lin Fan only watched for a minute or two before discovering that the waves were already hundreds of meters high, and this 'cycle' was still continuing!
His expression changed.
Now I finally understand what the source of the tsunami was!
"This is the vortex?!"
"The whirlpool constantly draws in the surrounding seawater. Once it reaches a certain point, the seawater turns into waves and surges out, but is then immediately drawn back in by the whirlpool."
"Time and time again, until finally, once the whirlpool dissipates, or the waves surge beyond the range it draws back, then... an incredibly terrifying tsunami, enough to engulf countless cities!"
Lin Fan was born and raised inland. Strictly speaking, this was the first time he had ever seen the Earth's oceans, nor had he ever witnessed a tsunami.
But that didn't stop him from knowing how devastating such terrifying waves could be.
"I need to think of a way to destroy this vortex..."
Lin Fan whispered, Fanxiao Axe appeared as a whole, combined, and transformed into a double-edged heavy axe, which Lin Fan held in his hand.
"Let's try a full-force attack."
My Divine Sense has already attempted to probe it.
But this vortex seemed to be enveloped by some mysterious force, making it impossible to understand anything.
Left with no other choice, Lin Fan had to act rashly...
Buzz!
The Fanxiao Axe flashed with astonishing light, and then descended from the sky, furiously cleaving the vortex.
Boom!
A thousand feet of azure light shone brightly, as if a colossal banner descended from the sky, ready to cleave everything in its path and split the chaos!
This axe strike was almost Lin Fan's strongest destructive power...
Splash splash splash...
The vortex remained, Lin Fan's all-out axe strike, which should have easily cleaved several mountains, yielded no results!
Within that vortex, dense patterns rose up, seemingly blocking his axe blow with remarkable ease.
"..."
Lin Fan remained silent and tried again, swinging his axe more than a dozen times, using all his skills, but still could not split it open.
"What kind of ghostly thing is hiding down there?"
He was somewhat surprised.
He had intended to destroy the vortex and resolve the crisis at its root, but at this moment, he was completely unable to destroy it. The unknown cipher seemed fragile, yet it could easily withstand his attacks!
At this moment, after continuous circulation, the waves had reached a height of over 500 meters...
This is terrifying.
The cycle repeats itself again and again, like accumulating power, becoming increasingly terrifying.
On the other side...
Kang Chu, still flapping his wings and slowly flying towards the open sea, suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Hey guys."
Have you noticed anything?
He asked with a puzzled look, "Why is the water suddenly flowing out to sea?"
"It doesn't seem like the time for low tide right now, does it?"
"Strangeness..."
"And it seems the sea level has dropped?"
"What's going on?"
His words.
This immediately attracted the attention of a large audience.
Among them, Bob and others are of the greatest interest.
"Quickly, call in the satellites and show me what's going on over there!"
"Judging from the wind direction, the seawater should clearly be flowing towards the shore at this time. How come there is a sudden reverse flow?!"
"Yes, Chairman!"
soon.
The result is in.
"Oh my god!"
Everyone in the conference room was shocked.
Satellite images show terrifying waves that blot out the sky, an unparalleled sight of horror...
"Is a tsunami really going to happen?!"
Bob was startled, but then he smiled and said, "Haha, that's interesting."
"This is terrible, such a terrifying tsunami..."
When others witnessed a similar scene, their faces turned ashen...
At the same time, I also felt that my hands and feet were cold.
"This, this is simply...???"
"This is ridiculous!" the third mate couldn't help but curse. "These waves are still building?"
"I'd believe you if you told me this was the end of the world!"
"Now is not the time to complain and curse."
With a grave expression, he said, "This kind of tsunami is simply beyond human control. We can only place our hopes on Zhou Xiaoran and Lin Fan."
"How's the situation over there?!"
"The formation is almost complete, but the Artificial Sun is still being tested and will take a little more time..." The second mate replied immediately.
"Hurry, we have to be quick! Tell them to do whatever it takes, as fast as they can! We must ensure the formation continues to function!"
"These waves are unstoppable; only divine intervention can save them!"
At this moment, someone's lips moved as if they wanted to say something, but in the end they just sighed softly and didn't speak.
At least several hundred meters high, waves crashed in...
This is absolutely terrifying.
Try to stop them with people? How could they possibly stop them?
Unless bombarded with Mushroom Bomb or something similar, there might be a sliver of hope, but... can you really throw those things into your own country's oceans?!
I'm begging for monthly votes! I'm begging for monthly votes! I'm begging you, brothers and sisters! If nothing unexpected happens, there will be a super burst of votes the day after tomorrow!
