Chapter 423

When Chen Xin and Qin LAN returned to the shelter, the atmosphere here also seemed quite tense.

The construction on the construction site has stopped temporarily, and all the workers are at a loss. They gather together and don't know what to do.

The soldiers of the special forces stood up, maintaining order, and guarding against possible dangers.

Noticing Chen Xin and Qin Lan's return, the commander and political commissar of the special forces came to Chen Xin and asked him, "academician Chen, do you know what happened? Was that an earthquake just now? "

"I'm not sure about the specific situation. Did the shock have any impact? There were no casualties, were there Chen Xin asked the commander.

As he asked, Chen Xin walked quickly to the special forces station, where there was communication equipment to contact the outside world. If he wanted to know what happened, the fastest way at present was to ask through the communication equipment.

"Two workers accidentally fell off the scaffold. Fortunately, they fell on the snow. It's OK." The commander replied to Chen Xin.

Workers fall from the scaffold, which is of course a safety accident. It is reasonable to trace the cause, clarify the responsibility and investigate the potential safety hazards.

It's just that it's more important to find out what happened just now.

When he came to the barracks and contacted other places through communication equipment, Chen Xin quickly asked what happened to the vibration just now.

If the earthquake is felt only in this city, it may be a small-scale earthquake or something. But if there are earthquakes in many places, it may be a larger earthquake or even a more serious thing.

However, in the anxious waiting of Chen Xin, commander and others, the reply they received was a very bad answer.

"There are obvious earthquakes in the area south of the Yangtze River in China. According to the seismic network, an earthquake with a magnitude of more than 9 on the Richter scale occurred in Southeast Asia. The epicenter is located in Sumatra island. The specific magnitude and detailed epicenter location are still being calculated..." Chen Xin looked at the reply, but his face turned pale.

The commander on one side didn't seem to know what was going on. He was still thankful: "fortunately, the earthquake didn't happen in China. If Sumatra island, the magnitude 9 earthquake should not affect China. Now the sea should be frozen, not even tsunami... "

However, before the commander's words were finished, Qin LAN noticed the horror of Chen Xin's expression and asked: "a Xin, what's wrong with this?"

"It's probably not an earthquake..." Chen Xin shook his head. Although he thought of a very terrible possibility, he still didn't want such a thing to happen: "no, we can't make a blind judgment until the specific information comes out."

Chen Xin shakes his head and says nothing. Instead, he stays in front of the communication equipment and seems to be waiting for the result.

The commander and political commissar didn't quite understand what was going on with Chen Xin at this time, but seeing Chen Xin's dignified and worried face, they seemed to realize that things seemed more serious than they thought, so they both stayed and waited with Chen Xin.

As time goes by, Chen Xin, who is in front of the communication equipment, is always cold, and even prays in a low voice not to be the worst result. Undoubtedly, this also affects other people, and makes them worry and nervous. They are afraid to go out.

In such a repressive atmosphere, although the waiting time was less than half an hour, it was as long as the last half century.

Finally, the communication equipment rings again, and a new message is sent.

"The confirmed magnitude is 9.2 on the Richter scale, the epicenter is between 2.5 degrees north latitude and 98.4 degrees east longitude, and the epicenter is located in DOPA lake, Sumatra island..." The commissar read the message, but before he finished, Chen Xin sat down on the chair as if he had been shocked.

Noticing Chen Xin's strange appearance, Qin LAN quickly asked, "ah Xin, what's the matter with you? What the hell is going on? What's the matter? "

The commissar and commander on one side also expressed concern to Chen Xin: "academician Chen, what's the matter? Is there anything special about this place called DOPA lake? How did you get such a big reaction? "

After repeated questioning, Chen Xin took a deep breath, and then explained to them in a low voice: "DOPA lake is the largest volcanic lake in the world. It was born more than 70000 years ago. It was formed by the huge crater left behind by the eruption of DOPA volcano. The eruption of DOPA volcano..."

At this point, Chen Xinjian and his three men still didn't seem to understand what was going on, but they all listened to their own explanation carefully. After sighing, they continued: "DOPA volcano is the second largest volcano in the world. It has erupted four times in history. The one more than 70000 years is the fourth and the most violent eruption of DOPA volcano, and it is also the blue star in the past 25 million years One of the most powerful volcanic eruptions.

The whole eruption lasted for several weeks, and more than 3000 cubic kilometers of eruptions erupted from the volcano. In just three days, the volcanic ash had spread all over the world, the sky was gray, and the temperature also decreased. As a result, the whole blue star entered the glacial age, leading to a large number of species extinction, and the number of early humans at that time dropped to less than 2000 people Step"Ah?" After listening to Chen Xin's explanation, the three people couldn't help but make a voice of surprise. They didn't expect that things would be so serious.

"Maybe it's just an earthquake, not a volcanic eruption? And this volcano has become a volcanic lake. In more than 70000 years, it has become an extinct volcano, right The commander said optimistically, and he also began to look forward to things not becoming so bad just like Chen Xin just now.

However, Chen Xin shook his head and said helplessly: "DOPA volcano is not an extinct volcano. There is still a huge amount of magma in its magma pool. Once it is hit by an earthquake, it will erupt. Even if it is not a volcanic eruption this time, an earthquake of magnitude 9 or above will still trigger the eruption of this volcano, so DOPA volcano must have entered the stage of eruption.

And now the key is not the eruption of this volcano, but whether its eruption is caused by the previous meteorite impact.

If the geological activity caused by meteorite impact caused the eruption of DOPA volcano, then several other volcanoes are likely to erupt along with it. You should know that there are seven super volcanoes with the same grade as DOPA volcano on the blue star. If they erupt together, the world will really be over. "
