Chapter 881: The Countdown to the Doomsday
『…According to the Earthquake Bureau, the 4.3-magnitude earthquake of 4:00 pm, the source of the earthquake is located on the peninsula, about 60 kilometers away from Baishan Province. Please let the bureau discuss the relevant views on the issue of nuclear test on the peninsula...』
"The magnificent scenery of Java volcano attracts tourists to watch..."
"Mi scientists assert that the Yellowstone volcano erupts will destroy the world's ecology, and local government departments say that there are already relevant countermeasures..."
"The search and rescue of the Alps avalanche is still in progress, and twelve people have died or disappeared..."
『…』
The usual morning, the usual breakfast, the usual sand, the usual news.
However, today's atmosphere is no longer as warm and peaceful as usual.
"I go to school."
The girl who had finished breakfast first carried her schoolbag and said this softly when she passed by the sand.
“…Will you go today?”
"Um."
The girl looked at the sand, and looked at the man who was lying on his side and couldn't see his expression. After thinking about it, she added.
"I want to say goodbye to everyone."
“…Then, come back early.”
"Okay, see you in the office."
“…See you in the office.”
“…”
When the door was brought to the light sound, Yi Cheng, who was lying on the sand, could not bear the noise from the TV.
"Bang!"
Instead of using the remote control buttons, the remote control itself, the arm strength trained over the years made the blow simply shatter the LCD screen of the TV. Unfortunately, the annoying sound of broadcasting the news still came from the TV intermittently.
Well, it was a really bad morning.
Fortunately... such a bad morning, probably today is the only one.
So, before continuing to complain, let’s briefly introduce the current situation.
Yi Cheng, male, 27 years old, looks like a useless and useless otakus, but in fact he is a savior who works in the aftercare department of the savior management office of the Celestial Dynasty, codenamed "Protagonist".
Although it is slightly different from the setting of a girl who is imagined by ordinary people, in fact, in most cases, Yi Cheng can always show his unique ability, which he calls the "protagonist halo", and escapes danger in a dangerous situation, and eventually leads his friends to a glorious victory after experiencing ups and downs.
This time...it must be the same.
Although even Yi Cheng himself has no confidence in this.
Because, it is a little different from the situation I have experienced before, this time, so far, the power of savior organizations and departments around the world has not been able to find out... the enemy who has caused the earth to fall into the "doomsday" crisis in a short period of time.
Ah...yes, this time, it is the real "apocalypse".
All the famous volcanoes in the world have recovered almost at the same time. There are more than 100 volcanoes that have begun to move or have shown signs of activity. Among these hundreds of volcanoes, there are those who have the ability to destroy the earth's atmosphere ecosystem with their own strength... there are eight of them without ten.
And when you realize this, you will have less than twenty-four hours left for the saviors who are committed to protecting the world on this planet.
Just imagine, in just twenty-four hours, hundreds of volcanoes will sprinkle at the same time. Just like when this planet was just born hundreds of millions of years ago, volcanic ash will spread throughout the world in an instant, and most of the six living creatures will die at the first time because they are attached to the respiratory system by volcanic ash. Even if you escape this disaster, in the next few decades, hundreds of years or even thousands of years, the planet will return to the ice age. In this long period of time, the low temperature is enough to kill almost all living things on the earth, and make the planet return to silence until the ecological recovery, or a brand new creature and civilization suitable for this environment are born.
And is it possible for humans... to survive such a disaster?
No one can give a definite answer...even the saviors cannot.
Therefore, now all the saviors in the world have been devoted to saving the world in a hurry - whether it is to find out the cause of this sudden situation or to find ways to stop the volcanic eruption, in short, everyone is doing their best to do what they can.
Even though... all this seems to be futile.
As the country that was known as the most powerful country in the world before, in yesterday's exchange, the United States had made it clear that when using the power of all mortal abilities and using the large magic barrier, it could only barely suppress the espout of the Yellowstone volcano group for only twelve hours. After twelve hours, the irrigated volcano will directly destroy everything, including all mortal abilities who participated in suppressing the volcano eruption and the barrier itself.
Despite this, the American mage group, with the great magician Siri, took such action at the first time, not simply to be able to find and solve the problem with twelve hours, but also because... if the world cannot be stopped from moving towards the end of the world, they will also have no meaning of existence.
Similar to the situation in the United States, just last night, most of the saviors of the Celestial Empire had gathered and rushed to the front line. With the help of some of the latest technological equipment that the Red Mentor had temporarily rushed to work, it has only temporarily suppressed the momentum of the volcanic eruption by drinking poison to quench thirst. Such suppression will only last twenty-four hours, and by then, there will be no more power to stop everything from moving towards destruction and death.
"Yes, even the quasi-god cannot."
When the Red Mentor, who has always been the pillar of the savior of the Celestial Empire, no longer has the laziness and calmness he used to be in his usual daily life. The moment he said this casually during the busy interval, the ending seemed to be destined.
In fact, when everyone thought so, Yi Cheng himself still had a little blind optimism at the beginning.
This optimism naturally comes from his identity and ability of the "protagonist". After all, generally speaking, does not the so-called "apocalypse" provide an active stage for the protagonist?
However, as mentioned before, even the protagonist, facing such a battle where no one knows the opponent, could only watch the time pass by and there was no way - the futile efforts of the previous night seemed to prove this.
This feeling of powerlessness that seemed to hit the air with one punch also made him more anxious.
In the end, he still couldn't stand it. After putting on his clothes randomly, he opened the door and wanted to leave.
But unexpectedly, before he could walk down the stairs, someone was already blocking the stairs.
"I'm here just in time. I'll be with me to bask in the sun and sunbathe. How about it?"
He stretched his graceful body as much as possible on the recliner and sealed the entire staircase just right. The landlord surnamed Bai glanced at Yi Cheng, who was anxious, and put forward this suggestion that it was inappropriate no matter how you look at it.
“…It’s not the time to bask in the sun.”
"You can't say that... You know I'm just an ordinary person now, so I don't know some things at all."
"...If you are an ordinary person, it's impossible to stop me from going out now!"
Although he didn't know the reason, he instinctively told Yi Cheng what was wrong with it. So he tried his best to break through the blockade and run away when the other party was not paying attention.
But the next second, his plan was announced to be ruined before it was launched.
“……Master Hong said, please stay at home during the day.”
In reality, there is the gentle and charming name of Jiang Yuwei, but in fact, another identity is the female neighbor of the savior "Bai Ze". It appeared quietly at some point and accurately blocked the gap in his attempt to escape.
"What the hell are you two... going to do?!"
Faced with such an abnormal situation, Yi Cheng narrowed his eyes immediately.
