Gacha games can't save this bizarre world.

"Oh, so Wyoming is going to be hit by a disaster? Looks like there will be a lot more monsters. I'm going to get busy." Old Saipan tightened his leather belt, looking like he couldn't wait to get down to business.

In fact, none of the three had ever heard of the Yellowstone supervolcano before this, nor were they fully aware of the seriousness of the situation.

After hearing what the three said, Sam covered his face and exclaimed, "My God!"

Thomas, who seemed to have some bipolar disorder and depression, couldn't stand it any longer. He looked like he was on the verge of a breakdown, clutching his hair and groaning in pain, "Why do I have to sit with them and listen to their nonsense? I feel so awful!"

“Oh, this fellow looks like he needs help!” Lincoln exclaimed kindly.

He thought Thomas was unwell, but in reality, Thomas was simply unable to tolerate the "stupidity" of the three of them.

Thomas feels like he's discussing relativity with a bunch of monkeys, which is putting him under immense mental stress.

Sam was fed up with their nonsense and asked Colt, "Is it that serious? If Yellowstone erupts, will humanity go extinct?" After all, that's how it's portrayed in the movies!

Colt finally lowered his hand that was stroking his forehead: "No, humanity will not go extinct."

Seeing that the others breathed a sigh of relief, he continued, "But Amei is definitely going to be gone. Less than one in a hundred people in North America will survive. Those who survive are the chosen ones. Moreover, the entire human civilization may regress."

A collective gasp rippled through the audience, a small contribution to global warming efforts.

Lincoln made the greatest contribution and had the loudest voice because of his good physique and amazing lung capacity.

Thomas's forehead veins were practically bulging and knotting; it seemed the two were indeed incompatible.

The Mysterious Bureau's grouping of the savior candidates was indeed reasonable. There's an instinctive repulsion between the muscular and the intellectual types.

"Um, I mean, is there any way to fix this?" Sam asked quickly.

Of course they did. Otherwise, why would Colt have gathered them? They could have just stayed home and waited.

Saves time and effort, and you can enjoy it while it's still hot... while everyone's still eating!

Colt turned on a huge high-definition projector, displaying Yellowstone National Park on the screen. It looked like a satellite image or something.

As the image zoomed in, the crater also came into view.

It can't actually be called a volcano, because there are no mountains there. A volcano is a high mound formed by solidified lava on the ground.

However, Yellowstone volcano last erupted about 64 years ago, but it was so powerful that the lava was blown away and spread out on the ground to form a rocky plateau. Instead of leaving a volcano, it blasted out a huge crater that looks like a giant meteorite crater.

Then the scene shifts, and an underground cross-section diagram resembling a 3D model begins to appear.

There are also a whole host of other factors that could impact a volcano if it erupts, such as the direct impact area, the volcanic ash impact area, and the climate impact.

Comparing the information each person had, at least Zhao Hao, Sam, and Thomas realized the seriousness of the situation.

If this were to break out, the global impact would be uncertain, but the western part of Aramco would likely be directly affected.

At that time, the rain of stones and lava, earthquakes, and ground fissures will probably destroy this place!

That's roughly equivalent to the simultaneous detonation of a dozen high-yield nuclear bombs!

Furthermore, scholars from the Bureau of Mysteries claim that there is a deep underground fissure along the Los Angeles-San Francisco line, where the terrain is even higher in the west. If a massive disaster like the Yellowstone volcano erupts, it could very well trigger a chain reaction.

An unprecedented earthquake will occur, separating the west coast from the continental shelf. Most of the current cities on the west coast might even sink into the sea!

"Fake!" Thomas slammed the documents in his hand onto the table.

After reviewing various parameters and models, he used his psychic brain to perform a simple calculation and discovered that it was indeed possible for this to happen.

If such a disaster were to occur, the entire Amerindian continent would likely be completely wiped out.

"What should we do?" Sam panicked. "Is there any way to solve this problem?"

He suddenly looked at Thomas with eagerness and asked, "Mr. Thomas, if we release the pressure on the underground lava before the volcano erupts, will it be effective?"

Thomas flipped through the thick stack of documents in his hand quickly, as if he were just randomly flipping through them, but Zhao Hao noticed the countless runes that flashed in his left eye.

Winston mentioned that someone has recently been researching psionic programming based on magical runes. It seems Thomas has already made some progress.

He quickly retrieved information and performed calculations.

“Well, I heard going is a good idea,” he said.

Just as a smile appeared on Sam's face, Thomas continued, "However, this is an impractical idea."

"It seems that all we can do now is to release volcanic pressure in advance, artificially trigger several small eruptions to release volcanic gases, and reduce the power and possibility of a direct eruption."

"However, the depth of the Yellowstone volcano's magma chamber is between 2 and 15 kilometers, which is much thinner than the normal crust thickness. Although drilling to release underground pressure is one method, the magma of the Yellowstone volcano has a very high viscosity and carries a large amount of high-pressure gas. If the pressure is not released properly, an explosion will occur. There are too many uncontrollable factors."

"You've all played with balloons, right? If a balloon is already full, and you prick it with a needle, it will burst. It's very difficult to control, and it could easily trigger a super explosion."

"Even if several depressurizations go smoothly, the effect probably won't be very good. This is because the underground dome has already formed, which is the roof of the magma chamber, and part of it is supported by the pressure of magma and gas. If the pressure is released, the dome will lose its support and may collapse, causing a direct ground subsidence. The collapsing earth will then crash into the magma chamber, resulting in the same super-explosion!"

Zhao Hao couldn't help but think of the movie "2012".

Thomas, resting his forehead on his hand, began to think frantically without uttering a word. However, even after his mental AI issued an overload warning due to high temperature, he still couldn't come up with any effective solution.

Even those who consider themselves geniuses among geniuses are powerless to change it.

Human beings are so insignificant when faced with such forces of nature!

He felt increasingly hopeless about humanity and human civilization. Humanity has its limits!

By this time, Prada, Lincoln, and the others had already started discussing it. After all, it seemed like a big deal, and if you just stood there looking like "what's going on?", you'd look like a complete idiot.

So you have to keep busy, chat, and appear professional to fit in.

Prada said she might have to move, preferably to the East Coast.

Lincoln said he wanted to stock up on Coca-Cola because he was worried he wouldn't be able to buy it later.

Meanwhile, old Saipan was still eyeing the possibility of making a big splash, since every natural disaster or man-made catastrophe was followed by chaos and demon hunters showing off their skills.

Sam and Thomas, meanwhile, both covered their heads and began to lie flat.

Sam was already starting to regret it, rambling on about how he "almost" fell in love when he was in his first year of high school, but he didn't cherish it and still doesn't have a girlfriend now.

Thomas, on the other hand, was experiencing a bout of depression. "Destroy it all, hurry up, I'm tired! I've decided to stop being human, being human is too useless!"

Zhao Hao quickly tapped the table. If this continued, these people would all be going home and dying. He had to encourage them.

I thought if the sky fell, someone taller would hold it up, but it turns out I'm the tallest one. This is ridiculous...

Zhao Hao slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "What's the panic? It hasn't even started yet! Are you all already rushing to run for your lives?!"

Sure enough, his shout freed everyone from that inexplicable emotion.

Colt breathed a sigh of relief. Damn, I called you guys here to take the lead, but you've already let me down!

Colt genuinely felt that many of the savior candidates were less capable than his own black-clad agents. They were only good at fighting; otherwise, they were useless! Why wasn't he a savior candidate?

In critical moments, it still comes down to our own people, and it has to be Zhao Hao who steps up!

Then Zhao Hao said, "Besides, even if it explodes in a month, we still have a month to enjoy ourselves, right? What's there to be afraid of! Let's keep playing music and dancing!"

Colt: I want to use you to block a volcano!

Fortunately, Zhao Hao was just joking and didn't actually intend to block the volcano.

He asked Colt, "After all this talk, what exactly is causing Yellowstone to erupt? It can't have erupted without us doing anything to it, can it? Is it really that sudden?"

Upon hearing this, Colt took out a document from a briefcase. It was only three simple pages long and was a report.

"We didn't call you here to block the volcano. Just like Zhao Hao asked, we want you to investigate the reasons for the unusual activity of the Yellowstone volcano."

He handed the report to Zhao Hao, who glanced at it and then passed it to Thomas…

Colt continued, "Just half a month ago, the agents monitoring the otherworld suddenly discovered data anomalies. In the otherworld corresponding to Wyoming, there was a sudden surge in the abundance and activity of fire-attribute psionic energy, which even began to dissipate other attribute psionic energy."

"Just a week ago, a large number of fire-attribute monsters, and even fire elemental monsters, appeared. They even drove away or eliminated the local supernatural creatures and have occupied large areas of Wyoming's underground world."

"Then, before we could even figure out what was going on, news broke that the Yellowstone volcano was awakening and about to erupt. The department felt that there was a very strong connection between the two."

"Therefore, the higher-ups have decided to send you to investigate! Once other candidates arrive, they will also be sent to support you."

Zhao Hao touched his chin, realizing that's how it is.

As expected, the inner and outer worlds influence each other; such a major event couldn't have occurred without changes in the inner world. Therefore, addressing the volcanic eruption from the perspective of the extraordinary realm is the area where the Mysterious Bureau excels.

There's nothing to say about it; I can't refuse.

Get ready, we'll trigger the journey to Wyoming in the Otherworld early tomorrow morning.

Chapter 387 Native American Eight Banners Descendants?

Yellowstone National Park is very large, so it spans the border of three states, but the main part is in Wyoming, and the other two states are almost at its gates.

Wyoming is quite unique; it's considered one of the safest states in Aramco. And there's a reason for that...

Wyoming is located in the western United States. From satellite maps, Wyoming appears as a square. It was originally drawn by cutting it directly on the map with a knife!

In terms of size and area, Wyoming ranks 9th among the 50 states in the United States.

It joined the United States in 1890, becoming the 44th state to do so.

Wyoming is at a high altitude, with most areas averaging 2000 meters above sea level, making it the second highest state in the United States.

However, Wyoming is the least populous state in the United States, with a population of only about 50, which is smaller than a large county in China.

It ranks ninth in area but last in population. That's why it's safe; without people, it wouldn't be safe.

A true reflection of a vast land with a sparse population!

Wyoming has many national parks, not just Yellowstone. It's a sparsely populated area, so it can easily expand its territory.

In Ami, there's a joke that goes like this:

Wyoming sounds like a state, but it doesn't actually exist; it's just a distortion of spacetime.

Anyone you meet who believes they've been to Wyoming or that they live in Wyoming has had false memories implanted by the America government.

This is because the higher-ups cannot explain it, and if the public knew the truth, it would cause widespread panic.

If you try to drive into Wyoming, you will wake up naked in Gamas with no memory of what happened.

This is how Canada obtains new citizens.

The reason for saying this is that Wyoming has such a small population that it seems like you almost never encounter a Wyoming native.

Secondly, the America law stipulates that each state has two senators and one representative for every 50 people in a state. Therefore, Wyoming is the only state in the United States with more senators than representatives.

The US presidential election is mainly about the number of representatives, so nobody cares about the election in Wyoming.

They are ignored from top to bottom, from official to grassroots levels. They are practically invisible among invisible people!
