Chapter 85: The Sea Split Into Two

The sky gradually lost its original brilliant colors and became gray.

The waves at the seaside burst out with their tremendous power, and the entire sea became more and more turbulent.

The sea breeze blew freely, rolling up the sand, leaving only the depressing twilight and the increasingly desolate sea level.

The once bustling port is now deserted, and all peaceful daily routines will be interrupted.

On the eve of the tsunami, the whole world seemed to be holding its breath. No more birds flew low over the sky, and even the most playful seagulls sensed the ominous atmosphere and hurried back to their nests.

The evening breeze carries a faint mist and an imperceptible strange smell, which is the most real warning from nature.

Jin An stood in the corridor, holding the railing, looking through the swaying lights, staring at the rolling waves.

He tightened his coat around himself to keep out the chill of the night.

The tense atmosphere in the City of Seven Waters is like a hemp rope on the beach, which becomes increasingly tight as it is soaked by the tide.

The air was filled with an expected sense of oppression, making it difficult for everyone to breathe.

They knew that they were at the forefront of this severe weather, and the humid and salty air told them that a tsunami was coming.

The waves on the sea began to beat rhythmically against the rocks, like a huge orchestra playing the prelude of fate.

Through the dim night, Jinan and his friends could feel every vibration on the water surface, and every wave seemed to be telling them the warning of a rapid current.

At this moment, the entire natural world is preparing for the spectacular scene that is about to happen. The sea breeze, waves, and dark sky all become the silent melody before the coming tsunami.

"..."

"The tsunami happens once a year..." Jin An leaned against the door, sighing as he looked at the magnificent weather.

Tom stood aside with his arms folded, sighed, and said, "The economic situation here is not good to begin with, and the annual tsunami makes people's lives even worse."

He recalled those helpless eyes and trembling figures. Whenever he talked about the tragic situation, the corners of his mouth would tremble unconsciously. "The fishermen lost their boats, and the merchants lost their shops. On this island, tourism has developed very slowly. At this time, there are no tourists coming here."

Jin An listened quietly, his expression changing from following the old man's emotions to gradually becoming solemn, and the light in his eyes was his recognition of the old man's experience and his persistence in the future.

He knew very well that the tsunami brought not only economic losses, but also the collapse of the entire island's ecology and the island's economic pillars. Many people would lose their livelihood because of the tsunami and even starve to death on the streets.

"But we won't be crushed by these things," said Tom, his tone firm and powerful.

He stood up like a pillar of support, his eyes firm and unwavering.

He gently patted Jinan's shoulder and said, "I believe that through our joint efforts, we will not only bring this island back to life, but also make it better."

Jinan thought for a moment and realized that the other party had already started researching the sea train.

For Tom, the world's number one shipbuilder, simply building ships could not satisfy his creative desire. He wanted to create something to change the island.

"..."

Tom looked at the sky, turned to Jin An and the other two and said, "It's almost time. You should follow me to the Seven Water City to avoid the tsunami."

"We have a special resting place up there where no one will disturb us."

At the shipbuilding square, the people in Tom's studio were already prepared, carrying only basic daily necessities.

They were very familiar with the evacuation procedures and knew why they had to leave for the top of the island so late, but they had no complaints.

They knew very well what kind of person Mr. Tom was.

"Then let us go."

Tom led the group toward an inconspicuous path that wound its way to their shelter.

Jin'an and the other two followed. The road was full of rocks and weeds, and it looked like it hadn't been taken care of for a long time.

After walking around for half an hour, they arrived at the top of the island.

At the highest peak of the island, the air seemed to solidify into heavy waves.

Jin An stood here, and in his open vision, he saw the clouds in the sky gathering into a dark blue territory, which was hovering low and violently above the sea.

It was the calm before the tsunami, an uneasy silence that foreshadowed the coming storm.

An invisible sense of oppression could be felt on the body, as if the entire island was trembling in fear.

Jin An closed his eyes, took a deep breath, let his breathing echo with the surging momentum between heaven and earth, and found a sense of transcendence in the raging atmosphere.

Opening his eyes, his pupils reflected the crests of waves piling up on the distant sea surface.

Lightning flashed through the dark clouds like a snake, accompanied by rolling thunder, foreshadowing the unstoppable power of nature.

The smell of a brewing tsunami became more and more obvious, and the trees on the island seemed to feel the threat. They swayed wildly in the wind, making rustling warning sounds.

boom! ! ! !

The tsunami rushed in like a giant beast, with surging waves hundreds of meters high, carrying the power to devour everything, and mercilessly hitting the buildings on the outskirts of the island.

At that moment, the sky and the earth seemed to lose their color, leaving only the surging white and the pitch black of the night.

Buildings are so fragile in the face of unpredictable natural forces.

The houses were swept away by the waves as if by a giant. The wooden structures were peeled off piece by piece like paper under the impact of the sea water and then disappeared in the surging waves.

Even those concrete buildings that seemed solid made heartbreaking creaking sounds under such a huge impact force, and seemed like they would collapse at the next moment.

The sound of windows breaking, metal twisting, wood breaking... everything was mixed in with the roar of the huge waves.

The streets turned into rivers, and boats that had lost control drifted in all directions, drifting blindly in the dark night.

"Not good!" There was an exclamation from the crowd.

This tsunami was bigger than any previous one. The people of the Seven Water City had already reached the highest point of the island, but the tsunami was about to reach this platform.

The people hiding here were in a panic. The cold and wet breath of the tsunami could already be felt. Louder screams broke out among the crowd. They tightly grasped anything around them that could support them, but deep down they knew that such efforts might not be of much help.

The whistling wind and the roar of huge waves almost drowned out every breath, but people's heartbeats were even more rapid.

However......

"Qiang!!!"

A ray of cold light flickered between the dim sky and earth, and a green light streaked across the air.

The mighty tsunami was split into two. You have to know that this is a huge wave hundreds of meters high.

Seeing that the tsunami that could easily kill tens of thousands of people was easily resolved, everyone present stared with their eyes as wide as bells, looking at the scene happening before their eyes in disbelief.

At the back of the square, tens of thousands of people opened their mouths wide, too surprised to make a sound.

Watching the huge knife mark that split the sea in half slowly disappear.
