Chapter 128 Volcanic Meteor
Suddenly, there was a roar of thunder in the sky.
The huge energy hidden in the earth is slightly revealed, and the whole earth is shaking.
The red magma, accompanied by gray-black smoke, gushed out from the emerald green volcano covered with lush vegetation.
The pure white clouds were instantly dyed black, and soon thousands of fiery red traces appeared in the azure sky.
That is the amazing sight created when the red-hot rocks in the magma are pushed high into the sky by the high pressure of the volcanic eruption and then fall down.
The day quickly turned into night, and the sky above Naples was full of flashes of meteors falling at high speed.
Just like the natural disaster that destroyed the ancient city of Pompeii two thousand years ago...
These volcanic meteors will soon fall to the ground, carrying torches made of rock and ash, and completely set the ancient city on fire.
Even Shi Xie, who was above all rules, could not stop this earth-shaking natural disaster.
At the moment the volcano erupted, Diablo, who was driving the armored vehicle at full speed, was trembling all over.
Not scared, nor angry.
It was because an extremely strong earthquake occurred on the land beneath his feet.
The ground was shaking violently, the houses were shaking violently, and the whole world was shaking violently.
The flat road turned into a "water surface" swaying in the strong wind , and the armored vehicle Diablo was riding turned into a small boat drifting in the huge waves.
The armored vehicle, which was moving at full speed, soon skidded and lost control on the suddenly cracked road surface.
At this time, the time cut just ended.
But the armored vehicle did not rush to Li Qing as Diablo expected, but turned out of control and crashed into the store beside the road.
This out-of-control steel behemoth crashed through a wall, overturned rows of shelves, and ran more than ten meters away before being stopped by emergency brakes.
"No!!"
Diablo screamed madly in shock and pain.
It was just a little bit away from success, but it failed inexplicably due to volcanoes and earthquakes.
He simply couldn't accept this reality.
At this moment, Diablo, who had enjoyed a glorious life for half his life, was like an ordinary middle-aged man who had a huge mortgage but was suddenly fired by the company and did not dare to go home to see his wife and children. He could only hide in the car and cry. He smashed the steering wheel angrily and powerlessly.
At this time, the volcanic eruption had just begun, the earthquakes became more and more severe, the buildings were shaking, and it seemed that they would collapse at any time.
“Damn it!”
Diablo didn't even have time to vent his anger.
He had to get this damn armored vehicle out before this crumbling building buried him and his vehicle alive.
So he hurriedly changed gears, changed direction, stepped on the accelerator, and escaped amid the falling construction materials from the ceiling.
When Diablo drove back to the road covered in dust...
"Um?"
"Li Qing is still on this street!"
Although he ran much further, Lee Sin still remained in Diablo's field of vision:
"He didn't use that locating light ball to escape..."
"Didn't he notice me crashing into the store just now?"
That is exactly the case.
Although the armored vehicle lost control and crashed into the store, making a loud noise , Li Qing still did not notice the "traffic accident" that happened just dozens of meters behind him.
Because there was a bigger movement around that masked it.
That was an earthquake, a volcanic eruption.
From Li Qing's perspective, he was just "dazed" for a moment, and when he came to his senses, the mountain collapsed and the ground sank.
The whole world is shaking and howling.
The eruption of magma in the distance, the shaking of houses nearby, the falling of "meteors" in the sky, the vibration of underground rock formations...
Endless sounds came from every corner, making his overly sensitive ears buzz.
Especially the earthquake waves...
The properties of seismic waves are very similar to those of sound waves, so they are also called geosonic waves.
Those extremely powerful seismic waves stirred into the air, completely changing the surrounding sound wave environment.
Li Qing had listened to the so-called "Sound of the Earth" before to determine the spatial structure of the underground, but now, this "Sound of the Earth" that had suddenly become millions of times stronger had become his nightmare.
He just stood there with his hands covering his ears, amidst the unprecedented tsunami waves, looking bewildered and helpless.
In comparison, the little commotion Diablo made was nothing.
Therefore, even though Diablo emerged from the time slash and drove out of control and crashed into the roadside, Li Qing was unable to detect his presence in time.
But this is not what is really bad.
Because of the strong interference of the seismic waves, Li Qing could no longer rely on his super hearing to lock onto targets outside his field of vision.
He had originally found a suitable target over 200 meters away through hearing that could carry the Heavenly Sound Wave. But now, due to the sudden earthquake, he could no longer find the target that he had originally locked on to.
no way…
We don’t know if the enemy will catch up with us, so we can’t just stay here and do nothing.
Li Qing could only cover his ears and continue running forward.
"Ha ha ha ha…"
"The bald man's ears stopped working in the earthquake... It turns out that this was God helping me!"
Life's ups and downs are nothing more than this.
Diablo instantly saw hope from despair.
While the earthquake caused by the volcanic eruption had not yet subsided, he immediately stepped on the accelerator and continued his pursuit of Li Qing.
Because he lost control and crashed into the store, which delayed him a lot of time. In addition, Li Qing's running speed was much faster than that of humans, so the distance between Diablo and Li Qing has now widened to more than 100 meters.
But that doesn't matter.
Since Li Qing couldn't sense anything due to his hearing loss, the distance of more than 100 meters was actually close enough.
“Hurry, hurry, hurry!”
Diablo's eyes were glowing red.
He stepped on the accelerator loudly without any hesitation, and drove at full speed on the trembling and bumpy earthquake road.
At this moment, Diablo even imagined that after he closed the distance, Li Qing would be shot into a sieve, crushed into meat paste by wheels, and chopped into pieces by the Crimson King.
However, at this moment...
Whoosh——
A shrill scream suddenly sounded in the sky.
That is the sound of an object tearing through the air when flying at high speed.
The sound was so loud that even the surrounding earthquake noise could not cover it.
Moreover, it is getting closer and closer to here.
"Meteor?!"
Diablo's expression was almost dull.
Yes, that is a "meteor" formed by being pushed into the sky by high pressure during a volcanic eruption.
Moreover, it is the largest one among them.
At first glance, the diameter of this "meteor" is about thirty or forty meters.
It was covered with dark red magma that had not yet cooled down. As it fell from the sky at high speed, it dyed almost half of the sky gray and red.
Its size is so large that it is hard to believe that this is also the effect that a volcanic eruption can achieve.
It grew bigger and closer in Diablo's field of vision, and finally... it slammed heavily into a building dozens of meters away.
There was a sudden earthquake, as if the earthquake had intensified by tenfold.
The tall buildings turned into rubble in an instant, and the hot magma carried by the "meteor" flew like sparks.
But Diablo is fine, and Lee Sin is fine too.
The "meteor" just avoided the , and neither of them was threatened by the disaster.
"fine…"
Diablo breathed a sigh of relief.
He had no mood to appreciate the spectacle of the falling meteor, nor did he have time to be happy about his good fortune.
He just focused his eyes on Li Qing in front of him and stepped on the accelerator desperately.
The engine is roaring, the bearings are roaring, speed up, speed up, speed up again...
until…
The sky was obscured by shadows.
It wasn't a shadow from volcanic ash, and the sun didn't suddenly set.
This shadow suddenly appeared because some huge monster approached Diablo.
So, the sunlight above his head was blocked.
Diablo glanced at the rearview mirror and suddenly realized...
The volcanic meteor that just fell nearby seems to be... moving?
