Everyone in the research institute, without exception, displayed a look of extreme shock on their faces.
They had just surveyed and confirmed the situation of Jingli Mountain and determined that there would be no problems within six months.
They’re saying it’s going to erupt?!
"How could this happen?"
"Dr. Go, what on earth happened? Why is Jingli Mountain suddenly going to erupt?"
"Yeah, didn’t they say there would be no issues for at least six months? This is too sudden!"
The researchers were panicked but didn’t lose themselves; they still believed in their colleagues’ professionalism and didn’t think there was a problem with the previous survey and measurements.
Apart from their colleagues’ high level of expertise, the survey and measurement was a complex and time-consuming system. Even if there were deviations, they would only be within a week or so, and it absolutely couldn’t deviate by six months.
At this moment, Yamada Shinkawa also asked, "What’s going on?"
There wasn’t much preamble.
His question was as straightforward as his character.
Decisive and straightforward!
Dr. Go immediately reported, "After just re-measuring, the internal temperature of Jingli Mountain has risen sharply, and the pressure is extremely chaotic. Although it hasn’t been thoroughly measured, it can be basically confirmed that this is a precursor to a volcanic eruption."
"Do we know what exactly caused it?"
Dr. Go shook his head and explained, "There are many factors that could cause this, such as tectonic movements or internal volcanic factors, all of which are possible. We need to investigate on-site before the eruption happens again to combine the data and determine the exact cause."
"How much time do we have until Jingli Mountain erupts? Can we make it to investigate?"
"It’s unpredictable."
As soon as Dr. Go mentioned this topic, his expression became even more gloomy and helpless. He looked at the computer screen again for a moment, then continued, "Based on the current trend, it will erupt in at least two days. But given the current chaotic internal situation of Jingli Mountain, in the worst-case scenario, it might erupt completely in just two or three hours."
"So, it’s impossible to investigate."
Yamada Shinkawa reviewed his conversation with Dr. Go and then said, "The urgent task now is to immediately evacuate the residents of the surrounding counties and the tourists on Jingli Mountain."
After saying that, Yamada Shinkawa couldn’t help asking again, "If we survey after the eruption, is it possible to determine the cause of Jingli Mountain’s eruption?"
"It’s hard to say. Maybe, but it doesn’t seem very likely."
Yamada Shinkawa pondered for a moment, then glanced around at everyone and said, "You all should immediately notify the regions you’re responsible for and have the relevant departments evacuate the residents and personnel."
Regarding the eruption of Jingli Mountain, although it hadn’t happened since the establishment of Divine Light Country, the research institute had always been prepared for this and had clear emergency plans for a long time.
Everyone had assigned relevant departments to contact.
The prevention of this day!
The researchers responded in unison. Their expressions showed noticeable relief. In this situation, having something to do and knowing what to do felt much better than knowing nothing and being clueless.
Hengban County, county office.
At this moment, in the office. free𝑤ebnovel.com
The fans were buzzing noisily.
Usually, only two or three fans were on, but now all of them were turned on.
The office staff were sweating profusely. Even with all the fans on maximum setting, sweat continued to drip from their faces onto the floor.
"What’s going on? Why did it suddenly get so hot?"
"Yeah, it was pretty cool just a few minutes ago, and then the temperature suddenly skyrocketed."
"I don’t see the sun being very strong outside. How can it be this hot?"
"When will we ever get an air conditioner here? Fans alone are unbearable in this heat."
"This weather is just so strange."
As the office staff chatted.
A phone in the corner of the office rang.
Hearing the sound, the office staff instinctively looked over. However, when they saw which phone was ringing, they were all a little stunned.
The chatter stopped abruptly.
This phone was the dedicated line for contacting the Divine Light Country Volcanic Research Center, something all the office staff knew.
This phone had never rung for years on end.
If it weren’t for the monthly checks to prevent issues, the office staff would have thought it was broken.
But who would have thought...
That at this moment, it suddenly rang!
Although this phone had always been idle and unused.
Its importance was self-evident.
The office staff understood what it meant when this phone rang—
As for how dangerous...
