For those who were paying attention to this event, as the final warning approached, every minute and every second seemed to be extremely torturous.
Liao Jingwei had been staring at the live broadcast on his phone since an hour ago.
At the bottom right corner of the video, there was the final number.
Two hours, 320,000 people.
This was not the total number of people who migrated, but only Yuanchang City. In fact, at this time, the migration time in other places seemed to be more than enough. Some places had even migrated a few hours earlier.
Only Yuanchang City.
This beautiful city, which had the same name as the volcano group and the largest geological school in the country, welcomed the last and greatest attention.
"Hey." Liao Jingwei's classmate, Hu Tai, walked over and also squeezed together to watch the video. His face was full of hesitation, "Do you think the volcano will erupt?"
They had completed the migration yesterday. They did not go back to their homes but arrived at the neighboring province and lived in the temporary residential area.
"I don't know." Liao Jingwei also had a face full of hesitation.
Although he was not from Yuanchang, he did not want his alma mater to be destroyed by the volcano.
But after putting in so much effort, if nothing happened in the end.
He was a little unwilling.
Hesitation!
"Sigh." Hu Tai also sighed, "The Pan-Humanist Guardians sent a warning message and did not make any sound. I also called the phone that was full of zeros. Heh, I can really call, but unfortunately, no one picked up."
"Don't think about it." Liao Jingwei shook his head and continued to watch the video, "Now, I only hope that they can leave Yuanchang City before the final moment. If they can really do it, it will definitely be a human miracle."
"Of course!" When Hu Tai said this, his face was full of pride, "Migrating close to 30 million people in 100 hours, other than us, who else can do it!"
His voice involuntarily became louder.
But no one blamed him.
Instead, everyone around him looked at him with approval.
His words touched their hearts.
They just wanted to ask, who else could do it?
However.
In fact, there were many people like them who were struggling.
As the time approached, a question that was about to reveal the answer began to appear in the minds of most people.
Will the volcano really erupt?
Actually, it wasn't that no one had an answer to this question.
In the past four days, more than one country, one investigation team, and one expert had given their own investigation results. That was, there was no evidence of a global volcanic eruption!
If Cha Yongchang's previous rhetorical question about why they were lucky had made many people believe in the warning, then the answers from the scientists had also made many people believe that the warning was false.
Stretch Maxwell was one of these scientists.
He was one of the world's top geologists and had a lot of important research materials in his life.
On the day he received the warning, he brought his research team and personally rushed to the scene of several volcanoes that were warned of a major eruption. He personally investigated and found no signs of an eruption.
After an entire day of investigation, he left behind some surveillance equipment and left, announcing the results of his investigation.
He felt that he had only done what he should have done.
But now.
As the warning time approached, the scientist in his sixties suddenly felt a little uneasy.
He had been sitting in his research lab, looking at the data from the remote instruments in front of him.
"Professor, it's already very late." Next to him was Stretch's proudest student and assistant, Hobbs. He was a little worried about the professor's health. "How about I keep an eye on it for you? Plus, didn't we already get the answer? There is no evidence that the volcano will erupt. "
"I'm just a little … uneasy, Hobbs." Stretch muttered, "Because of the results of our investigation, a lot of people didn't choose to leave."
"But we're scientists, we have to believe in science. No evidence is no evidence." Hobbs took a coat and put it on the professor. "Isn't this what you've been teaching us?"
Hobbs really respected and worshipped his teacher.
"That's right, but …" Stretch tightened the coat. "Hobbs, in my short life, although I've gained a lot of scientific achievements, the more I understand, the more I feel that human knowledge is limited. The land under our feet still hides many unsolved mysteries that we haven't understood … Maybe, we shouldn't have made that statement. At the very least, we should have used a more humble tone and more respect for the planet under our feet."
Towards the end, Stretch's tone was a little regretful.
In reality, his uneasiness was the same as most ordinary people.
It all came from the Pan-Humanist Guardians' prediction methods that couldn't be explained by science.
"That's right, you're right." Hobbs could only go along with his teacher's words and comfort him. "We do have many unsolved mysteries, such as the core of the planet, but that's not something you can change. Don't worry, we humans will one day understand everything about this planet …"
Hobbs kept talking, but he gradually realized that his teacher's expression seemed to have changed.
His mouth muttered a word.
"Core of the planet? Core of the planet? "
"What's wrong with the core of the planet?" Hobbs was a little confused.
"Hobbs, quick! Show me all the underground vibrations we've detected in the crater! " Stretch jumped up. He didn't even care that his coat had fallen to the ground. His tone was urgent and his face was red.
"Okay, but those are just normal underground vibrations." Hobbs immediately did as he was told.
"It's the core of the planet! We've never thought of the core of the planet, why? We should've thought of it! "Stretch pulled at his remaining hair in frustration." If all of this is true! If it's really a global volcanic eruption, then the source is very likely the core of the planet that we still don't understand. Quick! Use the core of the planet as the origin point and calculate if these vibrations are similar. "
Hobbs quickly calculated the answer.
The answer was none.
He let out a sigh of relief and turned around with a smile.
"Even if we didn't think of it, there are so many teams and scientists in the world. There's bound to be someone who thought of it. Teacher, don't worry too much."
"No …!" Stretch was still staring at the data. "Use the latest, most recent data, within half an hour!"
"… Okay." Hobbs did as he was told and rechecked the parameters.
As the program automatically calculated the reading bar, the final answer was displayed.
67%!
Stretch's vision went black and his body swayed violently.
He couldn't even stand properly! He fell directly to the ground.
