Laura's Beautiful Journey

Chapter 274 The inevitable disaster

Laura never expected that it would be such an unfolding.

He had obviously tried his best to avoid touching the two key props that would trigger the catastrophe, so he went to all the trouble to find a way to solve it.

As a result, fate now seemed to have played a joke on her. According to Queen Yasir's wishes, the disaster seemed to have begun inevitably and secretly.

Laura, whose thoughts were a little confused, was leaving the underground passage as quickly as possible. She urgently needed to restore communication with the outside world in order to verify Queen Yasir's specious words.

After returning to the ground, she immediately contacted Anna who was staying in Cozumel and made inquiries.

"Disaster? What kind of disaster? The continuous rainfall here has indeed made their excavation more difficult, so you now have more time to solve this problem. This should be considered good news, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Laura heard the tsunami warning siren coming from the other side of the phone. Anna was obviously stunned and did not reply.

"Anna! Protect yourself and go to higher ground immediately! Do you hear me? Hello? Rachel, help me search for signals immediately!"

Laura was not sure when the phone was disconnected, so she had to ask Rachel for help, but the result was not optimistic.

"The multi-line connection failed. Due to limited power, the portable communication glasses held by Ms. Anna still need to be connected to the network through a nearby base station. This situation can only mean that the base station tower near her has malfunctioned or been damaged."

"Calling mine and Tony's satellites, and then hacking into other available weather satellites! No matter what means I use, I want to see what is happening over there in Cozumel as soon as possible!"

While Laura was speaking, she put on her invisibility armor as quickly as possible and rushed to the meeting place set with Unuratu.

Thirty seconds later, when she walked into the cave where the Paititi rebels were secretly hiding, Rachel also sent back first-hand data reports.

First, a local news flash.

"A tsunami occurred in the sea near Cozumel at 2:30 a.m. local time, and two nearby small towns and many small villages lost contact. Since it is during the Day of the Dead, the civilian casualties and related property losses caused by the tsunami will not be able to be Estimate.”

Next, she quickly checked the meteorological and geological data near Cozumel and found no common causes of tsunamis such as submarine earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, submarine landslides or meteorological changes.

After Laura entered the cave, she lost her invisibility. Unuratu, who had been waiting here for a long time, came up to her and spoke first:

"You're back earlier than I expected. Is there any good news? For some reason, I've had a vague premonition from just now."

"It's not a premonition, it's a disaster that has already happened!"

Laura raised her head slightly and glanced at her. Could it be that Unuratu, the current envoy of Ixichel, really has a special sense?

"About a minute ago, there was a tsunami in Cozumel, where the Temple of Chakcheel is located!"

"What did you say? What happened?"

Unuratu's face immediately became serious, and then her expression became more solemn as Laura succinctly recounted the results of her exchange with Queen Yasir in the underground temple.

"I know what to do. Please bring the Key of Chakchel and the Box of Ixichel back to Paititi as soon as possible. The scarlet fire is about to raise thick smoke, and I should also face my mission. Got it!"

"The scarlet fire raised smoke?"

Laura didn't understand what Unuratu meant at first, but she heard the noise coming from outside and appeared at the entrance of the cave in a flash.

In the originally quiet and peaceful valley, under the darkness of the total solar eclipse, the ancient sacrificial temple occupied by the Kukulkan Order and the nobles was already lit up with scarlet fire.

"Best Armor will stay to assist your uprising. With her here, it won't be a problem whether it's the Kukulkan Order playing cold weapons or the Holy Trinity hiding in the darkness."

Laura walked out of the opened armor and said to Unuratu who had just come out.

"I will retrieve the two artifacts as quickly as possible. I hope your actions will not be too slow!"

After she finished speaking, red-gold energy appeared around her body, and then she took off in the air with a burst of sonic boom.

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

Cozumel, Mexico.

"Anna! Protect yourself and go up immediately..ZiZiZi"

After the communication was interrupted, only the noisy sound of electricity was left in the headset, but Anna had no time to pay attention at this time, because a huge wave tens of meters high had appeared in front of her!

Before she could react, the terrifying waves were roaring over.

"damn it!"

With just enough time to curse, Anna and the hotel she was in were swept into the huge waves.

This coastal town, originally immersed in the sad atmosphere of commemorating ancestors on the Day of the Dead, suffered a devastating disaster.

Under the shockingly destructive waves, all buildings were washed away. Although the unprepared people heard the tsunami warning siren, they hurriedly did not have enough time to reach high ground where they could avoid the disaster.

Anna entered the super desperate warrior state the moment the wave hit her. With all aspects of her body's attributes greatly improved, she was still pushed by the irresistible water flow, hitting countless trees and buildings along the way, and finally hit the ground. On top of a boulder.

Finally, the thrust of the water weakened and gradually began to fall back and change direction. Anna, who regained control of her mobility, clutched the stone and began to swim upstream little by little.

"Phew! Cough cough cough!"

After going through all kinds of hardships and surfacing, she immediately breathed heavily. Although the Extremis virus allowed her to survive in an oxygen-free environment, it is difficult to control the human instinct of breathing.

"This...is this a radio station on the hillside to the north of the town?"

Anna took a breath and observed the surrounding environment, and then she was surprised to find that she was washed up by the waves from the hotel in the south of the town to halfway up the mountain, which was almost seven or eight kilometers!

The tsunami went away as quickly as it came. After the potential energy was exhausted, the sea water quickly returned to its base camp under the influence of the earth's gravity, leaving behind a hellish scene.

The special multifunctional glasses are still firmly on Anna's face. The left lens was damaged during the tsunami impact, but the right one can still function normally.

"My, god..."

After she activated the telephoto function of the right lens, she discovered that the original buildings in the town had almost completely disappeared. From her location to the shore, there were various wreckage and ruins as well as the corpses of humans and other animals.
