Industrial Cthulhu, starting from the island lord

Chapter 736 Tsunami
Beatrice was taken aback.

A moment later, she belatedly realized—she had made eye contact with Him?
Beatrice remembered the consequences of looking directly at him that time; her soul couldn't withstand even a single glance, collapsing on the spot and plunging her into permanent madness.

Can.
Beatrice looked at Him through the observation window, and after a while, she rubbed her eyes.

Why hasn't anything changed?

She seemed to be merely gazing at ordinary things, her heart completely at peace. No inspiration warned her, as if there was no danger at all.

Illusion, hallucination?
Is it a revolving lantern?

Or is she already dead?
Suddenly, the eye in the observation window looked away and then fled back into the depths of the furnace.

Beatrice was completely confused. What happened? How did things suddenly turn out like this?

"The chamber pressure has dropped!"

"My total power and contaminant flow rate have also stabilized!"

"The tsunami generator is back to normal!"

Beatrice was still standing there in a daze when Monica walked over, wiping the sweat from her brow.
"It almost got out of control just now, but luckily I intervened in time and managed to salvage the situation." She then raised her head.

"I see." Beatrice nodded in realization; she had almost thought her prayers had worked.

It's impossible to believe. Her incoherent prayer was purely a bodily instinct. Not only was she completely unaware of the eerie whispers, but even if she knew the other person's direction in the Sea of ​​Ignorance, such an unorthodox prayer couldn't possibly be effective.

"Thanks to you, I was almost done for," Beatrice said earnestly to Monica.

"Heh heh, it's alright. I've always been this good, a legendary doctor, after all. As long as you don't stray too far from me, you'll be safe!"

Monica crossed her six arms in front of her chest, and the tip of her tail stood up.

Tata, standing to the side, glanced at him with a flicker of his eye.

He had just seen movement in the observation window, but Beatrice suddenly made some movements, and the stellar reactor calmed down.

Unfortunately, Monica blocked my view, so I couldn't see it clearly.

The same thing happened last time; the evil god in the furnace glanced at Beatrice and immediately calmed down.
Tata's mind raced. Could Beatrice really stabilize the Stellar Furnace?
hiss.
That's an evil god! Is Beatrice really that powerful?

Tata knows that if a bug can run stably, be reproduced, and still be useful, then it is not a bug, but a unique feature.

Beatrice has stabilized the furnace twice already, could it be...?
Could she be the reincarnation of a machine spirit? The true soul of ten thousand machines?

Thinking about it carefully, it's not impossible. After all, she is the Pope of the Mechanical Sanctuary. Could there be some deeper meaning behind the Candlelight Society choosing her as Pope? It couldn't have been a random choice, could it?
No, this needs to be reported to the lord.
On the other side, the towering waves of the tsunami were pressing towards Castel, and Hughes had already begun directing the banshees in the telepathic link to prepare for the rescue, when the water wall that was about to crash down suddenly stopped.

Not only did it stop, it flipped back and surged into the depths of the sea.

This time the direction is right.

Hughes looked at the wall of water, and suddenly felt a pang of emotion, so he reached out his hand.

He had a strange feeling that he could control the tsunami.

Focusing his will on the distant sea, guided by his intuition, Hughes felt himself gradually merging into it. Then he clenched his fist tightly—

Nothing happened on the distant sea.

“Something’s still missing.” Hughes pondered for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up.

He vaguely felt that the connection he felt with the seawater seemed to point not to him, but to some familiar presence further north. The body of the worker, Hughes.

Hughes looked around and saw that people had calmed down and started discussing the effects of the tsunami generator.

This isn't a good place; let's go back inside and choose to return later.

The incident at the Stellar Furnace was just a minor episode; soon, the tsunami, controlled by the tsunami generator, surged toward Gem Bay.

"Squad 15 reports: The tsunami is upon us. Wow, the current is quite strong!"

"Squad 17 reports: The tsunami is now visible!"

The sirens reported the location of the tsunami along the way. They were initially quite cautious, after all, none of them had ever swum in such a large tsunami.

But soon, the sirens discovered that their natural abilities in the water were stronger than they had imagined, and that they would not be in great danger even if they swam directly into the middle of the tsunami.

On the contrary, you can be swept around in circles by the rushing seawater, which is a lot of fun.

So a lot of the succubi ended up having sex along the way. If they hadn't had to maintain their relay role and not stray too far, the tsunami would probably have swept up a whole row of succubi when it reached Gem Bay.

"First, conduct an impact test, then a flood test. Head to Test Site No. 3."

Hughes's order was quickly carried out, and the tsunami slowly changed direction, rushing towards the breakwater of Test Site No. 3.

This is a specially built testing ground, with breakwaters of varying heights along the way, and simulated houses and other buildings.

The tsunami surged forward, easily crossing the breakwater.

—The breakwater was only fifty meters high at most, which is even higher than the Earth, but the water wall of the tsunami was twice as high.

Generally speaking, a tsunami with a wave height of less than one meter in the deep sea can erupt into a giant wave of 30 meters near the shore, while the water wall generated by a tsunami generator can be tens of meters high.

But this wasn't a real tsunami, otherwise the affected area would have been far more than just a test site.

Gem Bay, and even the entire Martha Islands, are likely to be flooded.

Therefore, the water wall, which was tens of meters high, only surged to a height of a hundred meters when it reached the shore, but it easily swept over the breakwater.

A massive amount of seawater crashed down from a height of 100 meters, like a whale leaping out of the sea, slowly but irresistibly hurtling towards the buildings below.

boom! !

Wow, the effect is so amazing?

"Oh my god, almost all of it is gone."

Most of the buildings in the test site were directly crushed; the impact was almost unstoppable.

The only structure that could withstand it was a bunker built to resemble Castells Cathedral. This bunker had walls over 4 meters thick, was entirely constructed with the highest grade reinforced concrete, and was not very large, which is why it survived.

However, the total amount of seawater that surged in was not large. After crossing the breakwater, it only extended for two or three hundred meters. The buildings beyond that point were not knocked down by the seawater, but were only impacted by the surging seawater.

“It seems to only work near the coast; at least the tsunami generator’s output can only threaten near-shore targets.” Hughes nodded. “Let’s continue testing the flooding effect.”

This part of the test is actually the key point; it measures the total amount of seawater that can be stirred up, which will be the basis for future land-based navigation.
