Chapter 248 Volcanic Eruption, Apocalyptic Island Nation of Kyoto!
Chapter 248 Volcanic Eruption, Apocalyptic Island Nation of Kyoto!
The force of Captain Marvel's impact, along with the cosmic energy she carried, caused this already unstable active volcano to erupt violently like a dam bursting!
However, unlike the floodwaters that gush out from the dam, what this volcano spews out is even more deadly than floodwaters!
Because that's lava and volcanic ash!
First, the counties surrounding the volcano were affected. The lava, which was over a thousand degrees Celsius, sprayed down like flowers from a fairy, turning the well-off islanders in those counties into familiar faces!
It's still a bit overcooked, almost burnt!
Then came the volcanic ash that shot into the sky from the volcano, spreading in all directions like the end of the world!
The first to suffer would naturally be Kyoto, the island nation closest to the largest active volcano in the island country!
The distance between the two is only about a hundred kilometers. Kyoto didn't even have time to react before the volcano erupted. They simply didn't have time to evacuate the tens of millions of people there.
Everyone could only watch helplessly as a dark cloud of volcanic ash swept toward Kyoto from afar, and there was nothing they could do!
At this moment, the entire city of Kyoto was in complete chaos!
Just like a zombie crisis in a zombie movie, everyone frantically ran for their lives in the opposite direction from where the volcanic ash was coming!
Because a volcanic eruption can be even more dangerous than a real zombie apocalypse!
After all, you might be lucky enough to outrun a zombie, or you can hide!
But a volcanic eruption is a different story; there's no way to avoid it!
Because in addition to the dark, heavy volcanic ash that swept over Kyoto, the volcanic ash in the sky also carried these red lava meteorites!
Lava meteorites crashed into the skyscrapers of Kyoto, either penetrating them or snapping them in half!
The collapsing building then crashed into the adjacent building, creating a chain reaction like dominoes in this densely packed city of skyscrapers, causing countless high-rise buildings to collapse one after another!
So even those hiding inside buildings are actually no better off than those running around outside, and may even be worse off...
After all, you're on the ground. While being caught by volcanic ash would most likely mean certain death, at least you can run, giving you a one in a billion chance of survival...
But if you're inside a high-rise building, you can't even run. There are only a few elevators, so don't expect to take one. As for the stairs, try walking them from the 100th floor...
So now, the island nation of Kyoto is divided into two situations: one is running to die, and the other is waiting to die.
The Kyoto islanders who were chased by the volcanic ash either drove cars or ran on foot. But whether they drove or ran, they all had one thing in common at that moment: extreme selfishness!
The drivers didn't care if there were people running in front of them; they just rammed into anyone blocking their way!
What to do when the traffic is terrible?
Isn't the sidewalk quite wide? Just drive right up!
Even those who run on foot aren't much better. When those men who claim to uphold the Bushido spirit encounter women, children, the elderly, the weak, or the disabled who are running slowly and are blocking their way, they simply push them aside forcefully, curse them, and then let the people they pushed down be trampled to death by more people on the ground!
In this volcanic eruption disaster, some people couldn't escape the apocalyptic volcanic ash and died in the deadly ash...
Some were unable to escape the building, not even having the chance to race against the volcanic ash, and died inside the building after being struck by lava meteorites...
But many others, driven by their own humanity, died in various ways at the hands of their own people...
In just a few moments, one of the world’s most prosperous cities was transformed into a true hell on earth!
Even a hundred kilometers away, Toby, who had emerged from the wormhole opened by the Space Stone and stood atop a volcano still spewing lava and ash, could hear the roar of meteorites and the cacophony of cries from Kyoto, a hundred kilometers away...
"Wow, what a beautiful melody! As expected of me, that was a perfect shot!"
Toby stood at the site of the volcanic eruption. Although he was faced with endless volcanic ash and splashing lava, he was not injured at all. Instead, his face was full of enjoyment!
At his current level of existence, the damage that volcanic ash and lava can cause him is almost zero.
What is deadly volcanic ash to ordinary people is no different from breathing slightly worse air to him; the temperature of the lava is more like a warm bath!
So right now, he felt like he was soaking in a hot spring listening to a chorus of millions of people; he was in such a blissful mood!
While Toby was enjoying the real-life disaster movie in Kyoto, a hundred kilometers away, Captain Marvel, who had been soaking in the volcanic lava for quite some time, finally woke up from Toby's serious punch that had knocked her unconscious under the high temperature of the lava!
Captain Marvel, in her Binary Mode, possesses Star-level strength, so she wouldn't be burned to death by mere lava. Thus, after waking up, she quickly flew out of the volcano!
However, Captain Marvel is now in a sorry state compared to her initial high spirits!
Not only were his battle suits tattered, almost exposing parts that couldn't be broadcast, but his body and face were also covered in flowing lava!
This doesn't resemble the invincible Captain Marvel of the past at all; it's more like a defeated saint from the 3D zone!
As soon as Captain Marvel emerged, she saw Toby standing leisurely at the crater's edge, waiting for her. Her first instinct was to yell at him, "You bastard, how could you...!"
"Shut up! You damned traitor to humanity! Look at what you've done! You've caused countless humans to be harmed because of you!"
Before Captain Marvel could finish speaking, Toby immediately said, "Go your way, you'll have nowhere to go!"
Sure enough, Captain Marvel was stunned when she heard Toby's preemptive remark. Then, when she saw the hellish scene around her, she was even more stunned!
She had just been punched unconscious by Toby and had no idea what had happened!
"How...how could this happen? What happened...?"
Captain Marvel looked around and was initially at a loss. After all, she was good at destruction, but she was much less adept at saving people.
Or rather, her methods of saving people are inherently destructive, which is why she sometimes backfires and kills the people she's trying to save! (For details, watch Captain Marvel 2, that piece of crap; even the Skrulls were ruined by this idiot, it makes me want to laugh...)
Therefore, Captain Marvel had absolutely no idea how to save the day from such a catastrophe!
But Captain Marvel immediately realized that she hadn't intentionally caused all of this!
She was punched!
So Captain Marvel glared at Toby again, attempting to absolve herself of responsibility:
"You demon! You deliberately brought me here. All the disasters happening here have nothing to do with me; it's all your fault!"
To this, Toby shrugged, not denying it at all: "Okay, it was indeed me who deliberately caused all of this. It seems that your stupid brain is not incapable of independent thought after all. You believe whatever others say."
Upon hearing this, Captain Marvel was stunned, her mind unable to process it.
At this point, shouldn't the other party also try their best to shirk responsibility and push the blame onto her, and then she pushes it back, and the two of them just pass the buck to each other?
Why don't you play by the rules and just admit it right away?
