Chapter 78 The Second Earthquake

Chapter 78 The Second Earthquake (Additional Chapter)
Just as the ant clan's career in exploring the unknown sea was in full swing, a very bad thing happened on the island.

The earthquake once again visited the island.

Almost exactly the same as last time, within a short period of time, all the ant tribes on the island became very restless, as if they were at a loss when a catastrophe was imminent.

Zero couldn't be more familiar with this kind of reaction from them. In fact, he was too impressed with this kind of thing.

He has even imagined countless times, if one day this situation happens again, how he will face it.

For this reason, he led the ant colony to build shelters all over the mountain, as well as densely packed water-proof granaries.

All preparations are for today!
Now, it's really happening.

Zero reacted in the shortest possible time, and then all the ants were forcibly appeased. They gave up all the work in an orderly manner and quickly, and ran towards the nearest shelter entrance.

Zero has rehearsed this scene countless times in his mind. Since the last disaster, he has always felt that things will not be that simple, and this kind of earthquake must not be the first time.

Now, indeed, as He expected, the earthquake came again.

Originally, Zero thought that he would be a little flustered, but he didn't. After the initial daze, there was only peace in his heart.

He has done countless psychological constructions for this, and built so many shelters and safe granaries to the best of his and the Ant Race's best capabilities.

He and the ant tribe have put in so much labor and effort, and made all the plans, just to deal with today's situation.

Now that it had actually happened, He felt a strange sense of relief.

Under Zero's command, all the ant clan entered the refuge within three hours, and there was no longer any ant clan outside the mountain range except for the expedition team that had already gone to sea.

They are already very far away now, and Zero can't take care of them, they can only ask for blessings.

In fact, there is a high probability that this kind of self-seeking is doomed.

Although there are sea transporters among them who can move in the water, they basically have no resistance to a tsunami of that level, and the chance of survival is slim, let alone the other ant species on their backs. born!

This time, the earthquake came very quickly. Just one hour after the ant colony had all hid in the shelter, Zero felt the strong earthquake and mountain shaking through his own vision.

That was truly earth-shattering.

This time, Zero looked very carefully.The land of the island undulates like waves, and the aquaculture farms built by the ant colonies with painstaking efforts are lifted out like boiled soup!
On the mountain, countless large and small stones rolled down from the top of the mountain, causing the entire mountain to vibrate.

And inside the refuge, because the structure is basically relatively stable, the interior is constantly sprinkled with dust, and there are also a few refuges that have partially collapsed inside, which has caused certain casualties to the ant colony. Fortunately, none of them were serious, and the number of casualties was very limited.Compared with the heavy losses at the beginning of the last earthquake, this time they can be said to have all their beards and tails.

The earthquake lasted for a few minutes, and then gradually calmed down. Afterwards, there were some aftershocks, but they were all harmless, and did not cause more damage to the ant colony hidden deep in the shelter.

But Zero knew very well that the real disaster was far from coming.

Just like last time, an underwater earthquake of this intensity will inevitably be accompanied by a huge tsunami.

Judging by the intensity of the earthquake this time, I am afraid that the scale of the tsunami will definitely not be smaller than the last time.

But Zero is still not in a panic. He has indeed made sufficient preparations during this period of time. All the refuges and safe granary passages are all curved downwards. Unless the accumulated seawater can overflow the mountainside, otherwise it should not be. There is nothing too dangerous.

It's just that the crops grown by the outside ant colonies will inevitably suffer again.But this is not a big problem. Over the years, the ant tribe has stored a large amount of food, and the food in the safe granary is enough for them to survive for several years without any income.

What's more, because of zero arrangements, after the tsunami, they can also restore the destroyed fish farms and put them into use.

Over the past few years, fish farms have gradually borne most of the food consumption of the ant colony, and because of the underwater combat units, the ant colony can also obtain a steady stream of food from the offshore. This time, the ant colony absolutely It can't be as embarrassing as the first time!
Sure enough, within an hour after the earthquake, Zero once again observed the abnormal movement on the coast through his own vision-the tide was receding rapidly on a large scale!

Since most of the ant colonies were not hit by the earthquake this time, Zero's vision was not affected too much.

Just after the tide receded and even exposed the seabed below, he saw a black line appearing far above the sea again in the south of the mountain range.

The tsunami is coming!
It seems that the huge waves that are level with the sky are engulfing everything in the sea and moving forward. In the sea, nothing can stop it, and nothing can delay its steps.

Soon, the monstrous waves almost came to Zero's eyes!

The southern plain couldn't stop them in the slightest. The seawater with huge kinetic energy slapped heavily on the mountains, causing another earthquake and mountain shaking, accompanied by a huge amount of seawater pouring back, even though Zero had chosen the most stable one possible. However, there were still several refuge holes that could not withstand such a strong continuous impact, and they collapsed suddenly, crushing and killing the ants.

On the ground of the island, almost all the plants were uprooted by the tsunami, and the sea water crossed the mountains and flowed into the northern plain like a huge leaping waterfall, taking away everything that could be taken away, leaving only a mess .

I don't know how long it took, the movement of the outside world subsided again, and as the huge waves receded, Zero saw that the entire plain was covered with returning sea water, and those depressions were also completely filled with sea water.

He knows that the large tracts of land on both sides of the mountains have become uncultivable again, and then the ant colony can only rely on the food stored over the years and the restoration of fish farming around the island to survive.

He didn't think that the ant colony could encounter storms again and help them sweep away all the polluted land. If only relying on self-recovery, these lands might have to wait ten years to become fertile again.

And at that time, with zero feeling, I am afraid that the next earthquake will be just around the corner...

This place is not a natural choice for the ant race, it is a high-frequency earthquake zone.

Get away from here!This is now Zero's biggest wish!
