There has never been an avalanche in Shiratori Lake—at least not since it was named Shiratori Lake and designated an ecological zone.

Although there is snow all year round on the mountain, the terrain is flat and wide, so it does not have the conditions to form an avalanche. As for the two White Bird Peaks on the northwest side, they are too steep to accumulate much snow, so they cannot form an avalanche.

conditions.

Some experts even calculated at the beginning that even if Bainiao Peak could accumulate a certain amount of snow and an avalanche occurred under certain conditions, it would not be able to affect the area near the ski resort at such a long distance.

After all, avalanches also have a certain falling range. The ski resort and nearby hotels and guesthouses are in safe areas and will not be affected by avalanches.

But early that morning, people in the hotel and two other nearby hotels saw a scene that would never have happened before.

The two locations are obviously so far apart, but the heavy snow roaring all the way makes people feel a strong sense of oppression.

In just seven or eight seconds when You Xi quickly called the hotel front desk to warn of a large avalanche at Bainiao Peak, the thunderous rumble had already arrived nearby.

The hotel has a total of fourteen floors, and their room is on the westernmost side of the twelfth floor, facing south. It is not facing the direction of the avalanche, but it will also suffer a huge impact.

The speed of the avalanche is extremely fast. The lower part is like rolling sea water, and the upper part raises powdery and destructive snow clouds. One second it was still very far away and the height was not obvious. But the next second it has spread to the nearby area and the height is not high.

The waves caused by a giant tsunami seemed to be more than ten stories high.

At this time, it was too late to leave the twelfth floor and continue running up. What’s more, even if they ran to the highest top of the hotel building, once they failed to estimate the impact range of the avalanche, they would be hit by a powdery substance twenty times denser than air.

Snow clouds are blowing, and there is nowhere to hide on the empty roof, which will only make it more dangerous.

"Go to my room!" Tang Yatong's room is on the southeast side of the lower floor. It is the farthest space from the northwest in the whole room. After closing the room, use the TV cabinet to block the door, and then use the tatami mat of the big bed to block the south window.

It can form a relatively safe space.

Because there was space, everyone took out not many things to put in the room, just some daily necessities and scattered food, but at the moment, they didn't even have time to put these things into the space.

While the other three people were blocking the doors and windows, You Xi took out the [sunscreen spray] and used it once on each of them.

A bottle of [Sunscreen Spray] can only be used eight times. She only had two bottles with her after waking up in the Endless Train World, so she wouldn't use it until critical moments.

[Sunscreen Spray] will form an aerobic isolation film on the whole body after use, which can withstand high and low temperatures, radiation, strong pressure, and vacuum. In other words, even if the building they are in is collapsed by an avalanche, they will be completely blocked here.

, as long as the body itself does not suffer a major impact or puncture, they will be fine.

The roar outside was getting closer and closer. It was far more deafening than what You Xi had heard in the video data before. It was like a monster making a huge roar, like thousands of troops approaching, and she always felt like it was being poured down and crushed.

It’s not just snow…

Simultaneously with the roar of the avalanche, there were also the hotel's repeated avalanche sirens and the panic and chaotic sounds and movements of other guests.

After all, this is a snowy mountain area, and all warning systems are equipped, but no one thought that one day this warning device would be actually used.

"Run up and take the stairwell! Quick, the higher the better. If the building collapses, you will definitely die if you stay below!" If you are really buried under the building by an avalanche, there is almost no possibility of survival, suffocation, physical trauma,

Hypothermia is an important factor leading to death.

"Don't take it, don't take anything! Put on your clothes and go! Hurry!"

Someone looked out of the south-facing stairwell window and suddenly lost his mind: "Oh my god! How can it be so high!"

"Run! That's powdery snow cloud! The building will be crushed! Run!"

"Woo, I can't run anymore..."

"Don't push-"

"Help me..."

…

In order to survive, some people burst out with far greater speed and strength than usual, dragging their families and rushing upstairs, thinking repeatedly that even if they were buried, they should try to be buried on the upper floor until the avalanche passed.

There is still a glimmer of hope.

Some people were frightened to the point of weak legs just by hearing the loud rumbling noise outside. They were trembling all over and shouting for help in a hoarse voice, but they couldn't get up...

At a distance of seven or eight thousand meters, in less than two minutes, the avalanche was roaring.

The huge impact was like hundreds of speeding cars hitting a wall at the same time. It was more terrifying than a tsunami or an earthquake. The ground shook and everything around was as fragile as a biscuit, shattering in one blow.

You Zhenzhen opened the shield and firmly protected the room where the four people were. However, in just a few minutes, the shield that could have withstood half of the site actually exhausted all of its defense value.

The arc of light from the protective shield was extinguished, but it also helped them survive the first wave of the strongest avalanche.

The room began to collapse. You Xi, Lin Wu and Tang Yatong each held up a corner of the mattress, holding up a small space while protecting You Zhenzhen in the middle.

Lin Wu activated his shield. This time, after You Xi reminded him, he only controlled the size of the shield within the range that four people could use mattresses to support.

[Sunscreen spray] is as effective as a space suit, and with its own oxygen supply, they only need to ensure that they are not hit or punctured by collapsing building debris. Fortunately, the characteristics of avalanches are that they come and go quickly.

Within five or six minutes, the roaring and roaring outside stopped.

The hotel building was relatively strong and was not completely destroyed. However, all the doors and windows were shattered and most of the walls were cracked. A large amount of snow and gravel rushed into the hotel from the damaged doors, windows and walls, especially on the northwest side of the building.

The front suffered the impact and one corner was completely crushed.

Relying on shields and strength that was twice that of ordinary people, the four of Youxi managed to open a way out from inside the damaged building in just over ten minutes, and saved several tourists who were still alive along the way.

Most of them were injured, but luckily they survived.

There is a layer of snow above the building. To prevent the snow from collapsing again, they dug holes upwards at an angle and found that the surrounding snow layer was mixed with a large number of rock fragments.

These are not fragments of the hotel building, but real rocks. You Xi probably came with the avalanche all the way from Bainiaofeng. No wonder she just heard the sound of the avalanche, and she always felt that there seemed to be more than just something in the sound.

Snow.

After another five or six minutes, a group of people finally crawled out from under the snow.

The heavy snow that had been falling for several days and nights had stopped at some point, and it had even cleared up outside, and one could see the clean sky.

They stood on top of the snow, feeling no cold, only feeling the dazzling light around them. They quickly took out some sunglasses and put them on.

The surroundings are a pure white world. Except for the building they are in, which has a higher floor, part of the top floor is still exposed. Other buildings in the hotel area, nearby hotels, and ski resorts have lower floors.

The reasons are all buried under the ice and snow.

The entire top of the mountain had been raised to a height of more than ten stories. They were standing on the ice and snow, and for a while they couldn't tell where the southeast, northwest, and the way down the mountain were.

When Lin Wu, who had the best sense of direction, could barely identify the location, he discovered that the building they lived in was likely to have been moved by the avalanche by more than ten meters to the southeast. It is conceivable that if the avalanche hits, it will still be there.

Tourists who stayed on the lower floors had basically no chance of survival.

On the side, several survivors who had been rescued by them wrapped themselves tightly in down jackets, lay on the snow and cried loudly.

They thought about their family and friends who were buried under the ice, and they knew very well how low their chances of survival were in such a huge avalanche.

The four Youxi people did not purchase mobile phones from this site because they could not use them, so they could not call for help at this moment.

Fortunately, one tourist didn't lose his mobile phone. He took it out of his bag and finally made the rescue call after searching for a signal several times.

"Will someone come to save them?" You Zhenzhen knew clearly in her heart that these crying tourists in front of her might just be NPCs of the site, who would reappear when the site was reopened after it was maxed out.

But everything around them is too real, disaster, blood, sadness...it's impossible to regard them as game characters.

Lin Wu replied: "It should be so. This is not an isolated island after all, and although the avalanche is terrible, it is not a comprehensive disaster. There will be rescue, but..."

It's just that sudden disasters like this usually cause a large number of casualties because rescue cannot arrive in time and the difficulty of subsequent search and rescue.

The surrounding snow layers all look the same, and people standing on them have no idea which piece of ice can be broken open to find survivors.

Even though they now know that there must be a large number of survivors in the hotel waiting to be rescued, they have not received professional training and do not have professional tools. It may be feasible to dig down one or two floors.

But no matter how deep you go, you have to consider the load-bearing and compression issues of the collapsed building. If you start rashly, you may cause instant death to the trapped people who were originally alive.

An hour later, two leading rescue helicopters arrived and began emergency rescue work.

During this hour, some people broke out from under the ice one after another.

The vast majority of these people are tourists. After all, they have strong physical fitness and various skills and props. Some tourists have still conscience. When they flee, they will take them with them like the four Youxi people.

of survivors.

There are also some passengers who do not regard the aborigines at the site as living people at all. They not only try to escape by themselves, but also throw them away when they call for help.

You Xi and the others took out a multi-purpose shovel, dug down a floor where they came out, and rescued several survivors again.

If it was pointed downwards, they would not dare to continue digging for fear of causing the lower part of the building to collapse.

When other passengers saw what they were doing, some sighed, got up again, and started digging down on the snow layer they came out of.

Some of them snorted in disdain, packed themselves up and went straight to find a way down the mountain.

In the entire Shiratori Lake Park, only the mountain suffered this major disaster. After the avalanche flooded the ski resort, it rolled to a stop halfway up the hillside.

Therefore, the real disaster area is only the area on the top of the mountain.

At this moment, at the lakeside at the foot of the mountain, in various villas, many tourists came out to observe the situation on the mountain because of the movement on the mountain.

When they discovered that a large avalanche had occurred on the mountain, each of them changed their expressions. They didn't know whether they were glad that they had not been arranged to live on the mountain before, or they sympathized with the tourists on the mountain. Many people began to help call the rescue phone.

Those passengers who snorted disdainfully moved away one after another and left the avalanche area.

The remaining passengers who were willing to help received a task prompt on their mobile phones after repeating the same digging action for fifteen minutes.

Also receiving task prompts were four people from You Xi.
