I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

These facts alone are enough to demonstrate the extent of humanity's fear of the "Earth-Splitting Netherworld." When it died, almost all the top leaders of various countries breathed a sigh of relief.

If the ranking of the sequence levels were based on the degree of threat to humanity rather than on their strength, "Earth Rift Netherworld" would undoubtedly be placed first.

However, now that the 'Earth Rift Netherworld' is dead, there is no other way to create new landforms in this world except through natural disasters like earthquakes.

The sea was dyed blood red; since it's just a metaphor, let's assume it means "a great many people died," and then consider this further...

If such an earthquake were to occur within China's borders, it would completely wipe out all the hard work of countless Chinese people!

..............

It was a peaceful night, the moon shrouded in dark clouds.

China Earthquake Administration.

This department was extremely important even before the apocalypse, and it remains so even after the apocalypse.

Today, the tranquility of the earthquake bureau was shattered.

An observer who had been killing time suddenly sat up straight after seeing the information displayed on the instrument, and pulled the person next to him with an incredulous look: "Hey Zhang, is there something going on here?"

"No, don't pull! I'll see it myself!"

Xiao Zhang was pulled so hard that he almost fell to the ground. After swatting his colleague's hand away, he went to the instrument to check on the "situation" his colleague had described.

After looking at it, his expression changed drastically. After taking a few more glances to confirm, he frantically ran to the other instrument.

"Quickly notify the higher-ups, I'll issue an alert!"

"Good, good!"

The instrument showed a pattern of red ripples spreading out from a certain spot on the vast ocean, with a string of small numbers on them.

9.3

The location is—the central Pacific Ocean.

Chapter 1 Natural Disaster or Man-Made Catastrophe?

In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, endless moonlight began to emerge, surging like the tides, quickly attracting the attention of many satellites.

However, the moon was obscured by dark clouds at that moment, so this scene was impossible.

If we disregard appearances and observe more deeply, we will discover that this so-called moonlight originates from the sea.

This moonlight is different from the moonlight that ordinary people understand. It seems to contain a strange magic. The sea rises and falls with it, as if it is avoiding something, making way for it.

The direct consequence of this was that the sea cried out in anguish, and the waves, which started as slight tremors, turned into a raging storm within minutes!

The fear and destruction sweeping across the land are still accumulating in the process, and are about to form a world-destroying torrent of unparalleled terror!

................

The five permanent members of the UN Security Council received urgent reports from relevant departments at almost the same time, and almost all departments were immediately put into action.

China, Bei'an City.

It's 4 a.m., and the Chinese leader had only been asleep for two hours when his secretary hurriedly woke him up.

"Earthquake? Pacific Ocean?"

He put on his coat and followed his secretary to the office. As the secretary reported the situation to him, he felt incredulous.

Earthquakes happen every year, so they're nothing unusual, but this is the first time since he took office that he's had to be woken up in the middle of the night.

His first reaction was that the earthquake was extremely large, to the point that the situation was serious.

What was the magnitude?

"The earthquake bureau sent an urgent report two minutes ago; the current magnitude is 10.3."

"Immediately issue a notice to prepare for disaster prevention, especially in the Southern Guangdong Military and Administrative Region. If we leave it unattended, everything will be over!"

The Chinese leader tightened his tie and made a call to the highest communications authority of the Southern Guangdong Military Administrative Region.

As soon as the call connected, Huang Tao's voice came from the other end: "I've been waiting for you."

"So, I was the last to find out?" the Chinese leader laughed in exasperation.

"Qin Tianhai told me that he was just wandering around the Pacific Ocean."

Looking at the boundless sea, Huang Tao was filled with thoughts and said, "I have already reported the matter to the United Nations, but I don't think they can do anything about it even if they know."

At the same time, he muttered to himself, "Damn it... Level 10.3, I've never seen anything so outrageous!"

An earthquake of this magnitude is enough to trigger a massive tsunami, and according to Qin Tianhai, there seems to be a strange force pushing the tsunami to expand.

In this situation, even with the protection of foreign island chains, China could not escape unscathed.

The first to be affected were the two military administrative regions of Bei'an and Nanyue.

The Bei'an Military Administrative Region might be a little better off, as the nearest city to the coastline, Sheng'an, is at least forty kilometers away, providing a large buffer zone.

But the situation is different in southern Guangdong. The nearest city, Huahai, is only five kilometers away from the vast coastline of the South China Sea!

If we wait for the tsunami to hit, everything will be over.

Such a massive earthquake could trigger a tsunami with waves that could easily reach 20 meters high, and possibly even higher. Even city walls could not guarantee the safety of the millions of people inside the city. If something went wrong, the result would be devastation and loss of life.

If China is like this, what about those small coastal countries that are still on their own land and have not yet migrated?

It's almost certain death!

That's why notifying the United Nations is useless; all that awaits them is annihilation.

The Chinese leader immediately asked, "Where is Qin Tianhai now?"

"He's still exploring at sea; he says he wants to find out the reason."

"Bring him back immediately. At this critical moment, the Southern Guangdong Military Administrative Region absolutely cannot be without his 'Sea God' to keep things under control. Put the reasons aside for now; the safety of the people comes first!"

"Okay, I'll inform him now."

................

On the vast ocean, there is such a person who, undaunted by the dangers of the sea, rides the waves like a king.

This person is none other than Qin Tianhai, who is known as the "God of the Sea".

He had previously said he would go out to investigate the reason why the mutated species came ashore, and this investigation took several days, but unfortunately he has returned empty-handed so far.

However, just now, he felt the fear of the sea, and the source of that fear was in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Then came wave after wave of surging waves, rapidly spreading outwards from its source, and Qin Tianhai immediately rushed over.

Just as they were about to reach their destination, Huang Tao called.

"Old Hai, come back right now."

Upon hearing this, Qin Tianhai frowned: "But I'm already at the scene. Am I supposed to go back without getting any results? I can sense that this earthquake is not just a simple natural disaster."

“We’ll talk about that later. Right now, the whole nation is watching us! We can’t afford any mistakes in this disaster! That’s what we all think.”

Qin Tianhai wanted to try again, but Huang Tao spoke first:

"How long will it take you to get the results of your investigation? And how long will it take you to get back? Let me explain to you first, this earthquake reached a magnitude of 10.3. If there is a tsunami, it will probably reach us in less than seven hours!"

"Alright, I'll be right back now. I should be able to make it in time."

Qin Tianhai hung up the phone helplessly. Time was running out for him to continue the investigation. He needed to go back and make a series of preparations for a counterattack.

Just as he was about to leave, a muffled sound came from the seabed, making him stop and his unease grow stronger.

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

Even though they were on the open sea, Qin Tianhai had a similar sense of déjà vu, as if the entire ocean was about to be turned upside down.

Suddenly, the seawater rushed outwards at a speed dozens of times faster than before, and the torrents formed even larger waves, as if the world was about to end.

Moreover, something on the seabed seemed to be rapidly approaching and about to surface.

boom--!

A deafening bang, like an atomic bomb exploding right next to his ear, left even Qin Tianhai deaf for more than ten seconds.

“This, this is…”

After seeing the true appearance of the thing that had appeared, Qin Tianhai's expression changed drastically.

.................

"This really is a natural disaster..."

After reading the joint announcement issued by the Earthquake Administration and the Tsunami Administration, Yan Ziming began to worry about the current situation.

The arrival of mutated species on land was already a huge disaster, and now even the heavens seem to be working against them. Does humanity still have any hope of achieving final victory?

Or is this because Ozawa left her?

But that shouldn't be the case. Even if Ozawa isn't here, the White Tiger is still safely on Chinese territory!

Bai He, sitting next to her, glanced at the news on TV and then gave a mocking smile.

"why are you laughing?"

Yan Ziming asked with dissatisfaction, "Even at a time like this, this guy can still laugh."
