Islanders generally keep silent on trains or other confined spaces, and the carriage is very quiet. Even when seated next to each other, they often cover their mouths and lower their voices so as not to disturb others.

Therefore, Liu Huizi used a Bluetooth headset when answering the phone call, covered her mouth, nodded, and responded in a low voice. Even though she didn't make much noise throughout, the ringing of her phone would actually disturb the surrounding passengers. This was the local cultural custom. Faced with the slightly reproachful attention from others, she gave up the idea of ​​contacting her friend directly by phone and sent an email instead.

Different from the convenience and efficiency of various voice chat software common in Z country, although the island country also has video calls and instant chat communication methods, Liu Huizi has to ask seniors and professors for advice, and they are still island people, and they pay more attention to cumbersome etiquette such as superiority and inferiority. Generally, you can use email or fax to appear formal and solemn.

Fortunately, local people's mobile phones basically have email functions, and new email notifications will also be displayed on the phone screen. She quickly compiled the question and pressed the send button. All that was left was to wait for those people to receive the email and respond in time.

Li Sa also thought of the local customs. After Liu Huizi finished his work, he lowered his voice and asked, "Is there an earthquake warning?"

"Yes, but the document shows that there are three potential earthquake sources. If they erupt one after another, the impact area will cover almost the entire island country. I am afraid that a huge tsunami will form next, and even the previously built coastal defense facilities will not be able to withstand it. This kind of disaster level is very serious It’s rare, and the domestic side has also sent more detailed materials to the corresponding departments of the island country’s authorities for early warning.”

Li Sa looked at the refreshing autumn scenery outside the window and the peaceful atmosphere in the carriage, and couldn't help but feel worried.

In the world of natural disasters that Li Sa experienced in his previous life, it is said that two earthquake sources struck at the same time at the beginning. One was in the eastern offshore of the island country, and the other was under the shallow ground near Dingjing, the island country. Therefore, when the first wave of earthquakes came, it was in the southeast of the island country. The whole area caused huge damage, and the tsunami arrived almost immediately, leaving people with nowhere to escape. Qiugang City in the northwest is safer.

Now Liu Huizi actually said that there are three potential earthquake sources? Is it a misjudgment, or has the world become more difficult? After experiencing the mutated world of heavy rains and floods, she could not rule out that the world of earthquakes and tsunamis had also mutated.

Two earthquake sources almost tore apart the main islands of the island country. What about three earthquake sources? Will Qiugang City sink immediately?

"Can I know where the source of the earthquake is? I have a friend who is engaged in research in this area. He is in an island country. I can help with consultation." Li Sa's so-called friend is of course Dr. Yao. Although condensed matter physics and earthquakes are not the same, But if the information is given to Yao Feier, the effect may be greater than if she keeps it to herself.

If Liu Huizi was on duty, she would definitely be responsible for distributing information to the people on the island to prepare in advance for today's situation. The document given to her was not confidential, so she forwarded an electronic version to Li Sa.

Li Sa's terminal has a special interface that simulates local communication equipment. It is very convenient to add friends to receive files.

Li Sa received the document and immediately sent it to Yao Feier. She stared at the drawings and tried to recall the fragments of information she knew in her previous life.

Two of the circles are in familiar positions. She was trapped in a large shelter in Qiugang City, and a local expert briefed everyone on the situation. Of course, the expert spoke the island's Mandarin, which she couldn't understand at all. She only remembered what the others said and gestured, which meant to avoid places where there might be aftershocks and escape as soon as possible.

At that time, she did not have the overall view that she does now. She always believed that the main earthquake source was relatively far away from Qiugang City. They were lucky and safe. As long as they found an opportunity to escape to the southwest to the sea, they could return to the country safely. After all, although the earthquake was felt strongly in Qiugang City and there was a brief power outage, the initial damage was not that serious, and everything was within the control of the local government.

The source of tsunamis to be guarded against is also in the eastern part of the island country. They are in the west, and to the west is the NH Sea. It is almost a small area of ​​​​sea surrounded by islands and land, and there will be no big waves. Some people even made a plan to contact several surrounding major countries for help, hoping that they could help deliver supplies instead of moving the people on the island.

But then the Great Rip began, and the landmasses of the main islands of the island country were broken off one after another. The sea water followed the cracks from the east and swallowed up the low places, pouring directly into the NH Sea. At that time, no one considered staying in the torn apart land. Island countries, including locals, plan to evacuate as soon as possible and seek refuge in several surrounding land countries.

This involves international relations issues. The level and coordination capabilities of the people in charge of disaster and emergency affairs in Qiugang City at that time were obviously insufficient. They struggled to manage the evacuation plan and could not take care of foreign people at all.

Li Sa was able to survive by chance because he found a small organization of players. There was a person in the organization who was proficient in island Mandarin and actively fought for everyone's rights. In addition, he got a bound space prop purely by accident, which can store 3 cubic meters of things. , the leader of the organization will give priority to protecting her mobile warehouse.

Staring at this detailed map marked in Mandarin, Li Sa realized that although Country Z was only a dozen kilometers away from the NH Sea, it did not have an outlet to the NH Sea. It could only use the T River channel to enter the sea for fishing. Large-scale There is no direct access for ships at all. If you take a boat across the NH Sea to return home, the first place you will set foot on is the territory of another country.

The identity passports that players currently have only have visas for entry into island countries. Going to other countries can easily cause trouble.

It seems more convenient to evacuate by plane. There is an airport in Qiugang City. You can fly directly to our country, so you don’t have to choose which airport to land at. The problem is that the earthquake and tsunami in the island country destroyed almost all airports, and all civilian passenger planes were unable to take off.

Now the location of the third earthquake source in this data is actually in the NH Sea, or closer to the island country. Port cities like Qiugang City on the NH Sea may be baptized by a tsunami, which is worse than what Li Sa remembered in his previous life. It's even more tragic.

However, the players must start from here according to the mission regulations. Do they have to return to the southern part of the island country and take other evacuation routes like the previous life? That will inevitably suffer various intrusions from the nuclear contamination of F Island, plus the risk of earthquakes and tsunamis.

Aftershocks will continue in the next 30 days, and you may be buried at any time while walking on the island. On balance, a large ship with good performance seems to be more flexible and safer at sea.

Therefore, the plan Li Sa had previously sent to Yao Feier was to board the ship in Qiugang City, cross the sea from the NH Sea to the west, and return to the country via Country C or Country E. I can no longer follow the crowd and linger on the island for too long like I did in my previous life. The mission was only to return to the country. They landed from the west coast of the NH Sea. Even if they walked for more than ten kilometers, it would not take long to return to the territory of country Z, not to mention the more convenient waterway of the T River.

However, if an earthquake or tsunami occurs in the NH Sea, the risk of crossing the sea to the west will be greatly increased. It would be better for them to follow the embassy's organizational actions and follow the instructions and not run around. Waiting for the country to send a warship or other means of transportation to pick them up. If they rashly break away from the mainstream team, no one else can find them.
