It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 305: A storm is brewing! A huge uproar!
Board the air battleship.

There was grief everywhere, and everywhere you looked were wounded people of all kinds, some lying down, some sitting, some groaning, some wailing.

Accompanied by rapid alarm sounds and frequently flashing red lights——

From time to time, crew members were running around in the corridors and passages, pushing carts or holding various medical equipment, shouting and yelling.

This naturally creates an extremely urgent and even critical atmosphere.

"Please let me pass..."

"Make way! Please make way——"

"Can someone help me? I can't hold her down by myself..."

Seeing this, Gokawa Shido made way without hesitation, allowing several crew members to quickly push a cart full of medical supplies through the corridor.

The car was filled with various bottles, jars, medicine syringes and other supplies.

It looks very urgent and rushed.

"What is going on?"

The boy pulled the corner of his mouth and spoke in surprise, his eyes full of confusion and doubt.

Although the situation did seem extremely urgent, the more so, the more confused he became. Especially since he was specially invited up here... He didn't know anything about medical care, so he couldn't help at all.

"Please don't worry, it's just a little accident..."

The person who took over from Kannazuki Kyohei was a strange woman who looked as if she was extremely sleepy. She spoke slowly in a listless voice.

The tone of her voice matched her expression very well, as if even speaking took up a huge amount of her energy.

"A small accident?" Gokawa Shidao looked unconvinced.

"Yes, believe me, it's just a small...accident." The woman exhaled softly and lowered her eyes with some annoyance. I don't know if she was annoyed by the change in the current situation.

Gokawa Shido also vaguely sensed this and couldn't help but open his mouth, but still didn't say anything.

So, was this just a polite remark? Or was it because the situation was so bad that she couldn't show her depression at this time?

Because right now people like her are needed to remain calm so that the rest of the people can have peace of mind and the situation won't get completely out of control?
He speculated secretly in his mind, and at the same time subconsciously looked at the attractive woman in front of him.

He looked to be in his twenties, wearing what looked like military uniforms...

The long silver hair tied up casually, and the blue eyes with obvious dark circles...

In addition, a scarred teddy bear can be seen sticking out of the pocket of her military uniform, which is very strange.

"I'm Murasame Reine, and I'm the analyst here..."

She noticed Shido Gokawa's gaze, but didn't mind it at all and introduced herself directly.

Of course, the tone was still so weak.

"Please follow me now. The commander is waiting for you in front..."

Shido Gokawa nodded silently, and at this moment, another cart rushed over from the corridor in front.

He could only make way again and watch the cart quickly push past him. The person tied up on it was yelling and screaming out of control, and the belts binding his hands and feet seemed about to be torn loose because of the excitement.

"..."

"..."

Looking at this scene, Gokawa Shido couldn't help but touch his forehead and felt dizzy again.

It shouldn't just be a psychological effect, right?
After all, I had just woken up from coma not long ago.

Taking a deep breath, the boy followed Murasame Reine and walked forward, unable to resist asking:
"Is this really okay? Why do I feel like... this ship is in chaos?"

"..."

"..."

"It's okay. Most people are just too frightened and their emotions are out of control. They can't calm down for the time being. We have already contacted a psychologist..."

Murasame Reine walked in front and explained calmly.

It's just that her body inevitably feels a little shaky, and coupled with her staggering steps, it makes people wonder if she is about to fall down at any time.

"As for those who were actually injured, it's actually not a big deal. Many people just fell down, or were thrown up and fell down when Fraxinus was hit and shaken. It's not a big problem..."

It's really not a big problem.

After all, if the problem was serious, this aerial battleship would have probably crashed.

But until now, it is still hovering in the air. Although it is a little messy, it proves that it is not damaged.

At least……

Compared to the areas that were really seriously affected, this tiny loss is really almost negligible.

Itsuka Shido hadn't really realized this until he stepped onto the bridge, and his eyes were immediately attracted by the large screen on the bridge -

“This… this is…”

He was speechless when he saw the aerial view on the screen.

The unfathomable sinkhole seems to pierce through the entire earth's crust, which is a terrifying sight that makes people feel chilled.

In some places, there were still billowing smoke and thick smoke, as if there was a fire burning underground and lava flowing. The whole picture was full of misery and destruction, like a scene of the end of the world.

"..."

"..."

Itsuka Shido's mood suddenly became extremely heavy, and the tragic scene caused by the space earthquake he had seen on TV before involuntarily emerged in his mind -

Especially the "Great South Kanto Air Disaster", which left a circular scorched earth from southern Tokyo to northern Kanagawa Prefecture.

After all, it was a disaster that happened on home soil and so close, so it was naturally very impressive.

But more importantly, the example given by Kannazuki Kyohei not long ago also left him with lingering fears.

With such a preconceived idea, he would naturally subconsciously use the situation of the "South Kanto Air Disaster" to make a direct comparison with the scene before him.

However, this is different after all. At this moment, the bird's-eye view on the screen changed in some way, perhaps the orbiting satellite received new instructions.

The images on the screen are no longer limited to the narrow geographical boundaries, but are suddenly open, taking in the entire deep and unfathomable tiankeng...

At this moment, the air on the bridge seemed to freeze, and all eyes were attracted by this sudden full view.

It was clearly visible that it was not an ordinary scene, but a huge palm print, imprinted on the earth.

One palm!
Five fingers clearly distinguished!

It is so nakedly imprinted on the earth, penetrating the earth's mantle and shaping the landform so drastically that just by seeing this scene, people seem to feel the silent roar of nature.

Even the strong aftermath has not stopped.

The strong wind howled between heaven and earth, blowing outward endlessly.

"...Did you see it? Did you feel powerlessness and fear from the bottom of your heart?"

At this moment, a low sound came from the captain's seat, and then he slowly turned around from the direction he was facing away.

The "Commander" sitting there asked this and looked at Itsuka Shido who was standing there in a daze.

"..."

"..."

It was difficult for Gokawa Shidao to retract his gaze and clenched his fists tightly. He felt his hair stand on end and his body felt a little cold.

It’s not that he couldn’t understand the shape of the sinkhole; after all, it was too intuitive.

However, because I could understand it so well, I felt terrified from the bottom of my heart, and even subconsciously didn't dare to think in that direction...

Think about how this sinkhole was left.

He turned his neck somewhat stiffly, shifted his gaze, and looked at the figure in the captain's seat, at the "commander" who was said to want to see him.

A girl with a petite body, hair tied into cute twin ponytails with black ribbons, and a crimson military uniform draped over her shoulders...

"...Kotori?"

Gokawa Shido was a little confused for a moment.

But it seems that this is the truth, the girl in front of him is his lovely sister - Kotori Gokawa.

Today is destined to be an unusual day.

In many countries on Earth, the long-lost "air defense alarm" was once again sounded.

It was not an alarm to prevent the threat of air raid, but an alarm to prevent the threat of space shock. In a sense, it has almost become a gray memory of a generation.

After all, if we count from the initial space shock, that was thirty years ago.

And six months after that──the South Kanto air disaster seemed to have subsided and no more spacequakes occurred.

It was not until five years ago that a space earthquake occurred in a corner of the redeveloped Tiangong City, marking the beginning of the second earthquake period.

And most of them occurred in Japan.

So, it is indeed a gray memory of the past generation.

After all, there were 25 years of peace in between, and even if it happened again afterwards, it basically posed no threat to other countries and regions.

So after realizing the situation, countries around the world are more or less stable.

Although they won't completely let down their guard, they won't be too nervous or overly sensitive to a certain extent.

Therefore, things like "air raid alarms" really don't sound very often.

But now, it's different.

Basically many countries, especially their major cities, were filled with those sharp, long-lasting, high-intensity sirens.

Accompanied by announcements on the radio, residents were guided to evacuate or asked to quickly conduct disaster drills.

This unusual situation naturally aroused people's curiosity and suspicion, but the information obtained was -

That is, Japan has once again experienced a space earthquake of the magnitude of a major air disaster...

This is an unprecedented disaster in the past five years, enough to alert the world...

According to a series of interpretations by authorities and experts who came from nowhere, this may mean that the changes and periodic activities of the "seismic belt" are not necessarily limited to Japan...

Things like that, in short, it sounds reasonable and makes people think that those alerts and notifications are necessary.

However, what ordinary people can know is always regulated information. Even in the information age, media news will only present the part that they allow ordinary people to see.

So people probably won’t know for the time being that, in fact, no space earthquake of the magnitude of a major air disaster occurred, and the truth is actually more shocking than that.

Countries around the world have become more sensitive and even a little neurotic because of this.

Some even called China, asked questions and sent in their doubts.

——"Is that the legendary swordsman?"

——"Based on the analysis of the on-site data, it seems that there are many Taoist elements in the runes of the portal?"

——"That strange language seems to be understandable to everyone who hears it, but why does the actual pronunciation lean towards ancient Chinese?"

——"What does the so-called "lower world" mean? Does it refer to our Earth? And in contrast, is there a so-called "upper world"? "

………………

In short, friendly countries were shocked and extremely surprised.

Especially after noticing many clues or traces pointing to some dizzying conjectures...

Even more so.
