Chen Zhao was a bit surprised that Nawotz Singh and Dahlia Moore had returned.
Originally, he wasn't angry that they'd left.
After all, normal spiritualists would have a hard time dealing with the First Night alone. They'd probably piss their pants when they heard that it was the Second Night.
No one had the obligation to sacrifice themselves for someone else.
"Mr. Chen, we're willing to help you guard the Second Night, but if the situation deteriorates, we'll still leave."
"I don't need you to fight," Chen Zhao said. "You just need to help me detect the enemies in a large area."
"Are you sure you don't need me to fight?" Navotz asked. "We can all help you more or less."
"Using your perception magic will be the greatest help," Chen Zhao said.
To Navotz, Chen Zhao was still a bit arrogant.
Chen Zhao still had something to consider. Should he keep Gerlyn at home or send her to the Association?
"Gerlyn, are you going to Auntie Gaia?"
"No, Gerlyn is staying. Gerlyn wants to be the first to see the birth of a little sister."
"How do you know it's a little sister? Maybe it's a little brother."
"No, it's a little sister," Gerlyn said firmly, as if answering Chen Zhao's question with a predetermined answer.
Chen Zhao smiled. Of course, he knew that his second child was also a daughter.
Daly Moore, Navotz, Shara, Faur, and Fali, as well as Chen Zhao, who was carrying Gerlyn, sat at various places at the dining table.
Chen Zhao was the one who'd cooked tonight. Daly Moore was the first to speak.
"Mr. Chen, your cooking skills are really good. I need a chef at home."
Of course, Daly Moore was only joking. Not counting her parents' wealth, Chen Zhao was richer than her.
"When I lose my job, I'll consider going to your house to be a chef." No one would take a joke seriously. Chen Zhao wasn't someone who couldn't take a joke.
"I heard that the hurricane that landed on the West Coast this time is already faster than the one in 2005," Shara said. Shera said, "Mr. Chen, your villa can withstand a hurricane with a speed of over 300 kilometers per hour, right?"
"The surrounding forest can slow down the wind. When this villa was built, it was designed to defend against Category 5 hurricanes. In addition, the upper and lower floors of the villa have two different architectural structures. They can be completely enclosed. That is to say, even if the upper floor of the villa is completely destroyed and submerged by the lake, the lower floor can be completely enclosed. There are enough food reserves and landlines in the lower floor. In addition, there is a passage to Mirror Lake in the second basement. As long as you can hold your breath for a minute, you can safely swim to the outside."
Hearing that, Sherra felt much more at ease.
Moreover, in the face of a hurricane with winds of over 300 kilometers per hour, it might not be safe to stay in the hospital.
Compared to China, which had long been accustomed to typhoons and was more experienced in this area, whether it was the country or the state governments, they had never had any experience in preventing hurricanes. Even if they caused catastrophic consequences, they might not take action.
The tragedy in 2005 was enough to illustrate all of this. Of the nearly 2,000 people who died, only one-third of them were directly killed by the hurricane. The rest were drowned or starved to death because they could not be rescued.
Even the crimes that occurred after the disaster were an important reason for the final death toll.
As the most developed country in the world with the most perfect system, it had become the most chaotic country in the world in the face of a disaster.
A tropical cyclone with a speed of 300 kilometers per hour was something Southeast Asian countries would encounter once or twice every two to three years.
However, countries in North America rarely encountered a tropical cyclone of this intensity.
Right now, the rich people on the West Coast had all gone to other cities to seek refuge.
No, more accurately, they were not going to seek refuge. They were going on vacation.
For rich people, going anywhere was the same.
Steven and Rasfa even invited Chen Zhao to go with them, but Chen Zhao clearly could not leave.
However, there were still more than ten hours before the tropical cyclone made landfall.
Chen Zhao was not sure if it would continue to grow stronger.
The West Coast was in the tropical zone. There was an obvious temperature difference between it and the Pacific Ocean.
Tropical cyclones themselves were cyclones produced by convective temperature differences.
The larger the temperature difference, the stronger the cyclone.
According to past experience, every tropical cyclone that made landfall on the West Coast would continue to grow stronger before it made landfall.
If it continued to grow stronger, it might become the strongest hurricane in the New Century.
Everyone was enjoying themselves at the dinner table.
However, a piece of news that was broadcasted on the TV cast a shadow over everyone's mood.
According to NASA's research, Tropical Cyclone Witch was not a real tropical storm. It was an El Niño phenomenon. The weather bureau also issued a red alert at the same time.
At the same time, there was a list of all the major cities on the West Coast. They were all red alerts.
Los Angeles was in the area with the strongest winds and was about to face the center of the storm.
The center of a tropical storm was not as peaceful as in novels. In fact, the closer one was to the center, the stronger the wind.
Currently, NASA and the weather bureau had announced that the wind at the center of the storm had reached 335 kilometers per hour.
It was still getting stronger. No one knew how strong the wind would be when it made landfall.
El Nino, which is derived from Spanish.
It originally meant "Holy Infant."
At the beginning of the 19th century, fishermen in Spanish-speaking countries such as Ecuador and Peru in South America discovered that every few years, from October to March of the following year, a warm current would move southward along the coast, raising the temperature of the surface sea significantly.
The Peruvian cold current was originally prevalent on the east coast of the Pacific Ocean in South America. The fish that moved with the cold current made the Peruvian fishery one of the four largest in the world. However, when this warm current appeared, the fish that liked cold water would die in large numbers, causing the fishermen to suffer a disaster.
Because this phenomenon was usually at its peak around Christmas, the helpless fishermen who suffered from natural disasters called it the Son of God — the Holy Infant.
El Nino generally occurs once every four years, causing immeasurable damage to the world.
However, it was uncertain and impossible to calculate.
Four years was just a calculation based on past experience. In reality, this was not the case.
For example, the devastating flood in China in 1998. No one could forget that disaster.
That night, the dark clouds over Los Angeles disappeared.
It was rare to see the bright stars in the sky.
However, everyone knew that this was not a good sign.
