Chapter 3046

~11 min read 2,122 words

When Gordon arrived at the seaside, the state of the coast was already very bad. The monstrous waves swallowed almost all the piers, and the ships docked at the shore were all overturned into the sea.

Fortunately, there was already a typhoon, and the fishermen all knew that they couldn't go out in this weather, so they all hid in their homes in the East District, and the buildings renovated by Wayne Enterprises were sturdy and reliable, so no casualties had been found yet.

But if this continues, and the seawater submerges the entire East District, then even if the buildings can protect people, they cannot protect the industries on the ground. Cat Getan no longer has extra funds to repair the city. Once the already tight capital chain breaks, the city might fall to the bottom again.

"Can you contact Professor Victor Fries?" Gordon turned back and asked his subordinate. The subordinate looked at his phone and said, "We contacted Professor Fries the first time we discovered the ocean abnormality. He and his wife are rushing back through the portal, and it will take at least 10 minutes..."

"James! James! I'm here!"

Gordon turned back and saw Victor and Nora rushing over. He hurriedly dragged the two under the temporarily supported rain shed and asked someone to pour them a cup of hot coffee.

"We two just came back from Mercury. What on earth is going on? Why did a tsunami suddenly appear in Cat Getan?"

"We don't know either. It's possible that Atlantis..."

"It's not Atlantis, it's the Sea God Poseidon," Victor discovered that he knew more than Gordon, so he immediately spoke up. "We have to figure out why Poseidon suddenly went crazy now."

"What about Diana? Isn't Poseidon her uncle?"

"There's a problem. She can't come in person. Arthur has already taken people back. Let's solve the problem on the coast first."

"Do you have a way to freeze this seawater?"

"This is the problem. I have to go back to my lab to get the freezing device generator, and you have to send someone to escort me. Moreover, the activation of the device takes time..."

"No problem." Gordon immediately began to call for troops. He knew that this operation might be very dangerous, because if they wanted to put the freezing device generator in a place where it could freeze seawater, they would inevitably face monstrous waves. Sacrifices were inevitable.

Scientists like Victor were very precious, and he was needed to adjust the device later, so it definitely couldn't be him. Gordon had already made up his mind to lead the team to deploy the freezing device himself.

The police car shuttled through the wind and rain and soon arrived inside the Cat Getan University campus. Victor's new lab was built here. And when taking the device, he deliberately kept an eye out and took two freezing chambers, putting them in the trunk of the police car.

When returning to the coast, the situation had worsened even more. The water in the residential area had reached the waist, and the warning tape was withdrawn again and again. The police officers could only stay on the second floor, watching the situation below.

Victor and Nora used freezing guns to freeze the ground solid, so the police car could drive up. As soon as he walked into the corridor of the residential area, he smelled the aroma of food.

The police officers were gathered together in twos and threes to eat. Victor saw a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl delivering food to them. He walked over to Gordon and said, "The equipment has been taken. Next, I will fix a miniature freezing device on the roof of two police cars. You open the way for me. After reaching the designated target location, drop the equipment. I need to observe the operation of the equipment within a distance of no more than one kilometer."

"No problem." Gordon was simply responsive to Victor, and then he turned around, picked up a sandwich from the table next to him, and stuffed it into Victor's hand, saying, "No matter how critical the situation is, you have to eat first. Only when you are full will you have the strength to work."

"Sent by the residents here?"

Gordon nodded and said, "Yes, they are very enthusiastic. Now the residents of an entire building are making sandwiches, and some have baked bread, and the coffee machine was also borrowed by us..."

Victor revealed a bright smile and said, "This feeling must be very good, right? Sheriff?"

Gordon also laughed and said, "Yes, there is no one in this world who is not worth protecting."

Suddenly, a commotion came from downstairs. A purple figure flashed in front of Gordon, and another figure chased after her.

"Rachel! Rachel! Slow down!" Dick grabbed Raven's cloak, which made her stop.

"You're here." Gordon didn't feel surprised at all, while Raven said hurriedly, "I brought all the clones I can control. Is there any place where they can be used?"

Dick patted Raven on the shoulder. He knew that during the investigation of the child abuse case last time, the clones she controlled accidentally alerted the enemy. Raven was still very concerned about it until now. Hearing that the police on the coast needed help, she came immediately.

"Great, there is a place where you can be used here." Victor interrupted Gordon, who was about to refuse, and said, "But it's not the clones, but your magic power. I hope you can help me open a path in the sea waves."

"What are you going in for? That's very dangerous!" Raven said hurriedly, "This is no ordinary sea wave; I can feel a powerful magical force..."

"Yes, because of this, I need to go deep into the sea waves. The closer the device is to the deep sea, the stronger it can freeze, and it can also reduce the possibility of affecting the residential area."

"No problem." Raven agreed immediately. She said, "I'm not sure if my power can avoid all the sea waves. Give me five minutes; I'll make a phone call to Trigon."

"What an excellent girl." Gordon walked to Dick's side and watched Raven's back with him. Although Dick looked slightly worried, he was more proud of her.

I don't know what Raven said to her father. In short, her demon dad agreed to lend her more power. In this way, the freezing plan would have a greater chance of success.

Ever since the last Trigon descent incident, under the guidance of Dick and the others, Raven's thinking had opened up. She had a wave of "father-kind-daughter-filial" with Trigon. When she had nothing to do, she would cheat power from her dad, bringing the spirit of "gnawing on the old" to the extreme, and had already become Trigon's Earth spokesperson.

Don't say, Trigon just eats soft and not hard. When his daughter resisted him, he insisted on twisting this melon. As a result, his daughter's career ambition came up. Sometimes she planned the ruling territory for him, sometimes she asked him for funds. He started to feel annoyed again, and his inspection of Raven's work progress started to become perfunctory. He didn't even pay much attention to her usually.

"We are still missing a driver." Victor opened his mouth: "No, James, you can't go. You have to watch the situation in the residential area here. In case something happens, you can organize the evacuation in time."

Gordon was about to argue, but Victor interrupted again. He said, "More importantly, your driving skills are also bad. In the many years you've been a police officer in Cat Getan, you've passed Cat Getan University more than a dozen times while chasing fugitives, and I've never seen you catch any of them. Every time, you rely on helicopter support. Do you dare to say this didn't happen?"

Gordon was choked back immediately. He touched his nose and said, "I have caught one or two..."

"All of them were idiots who abandoned their cars halfway." Another voice sounded at the stairwell. The tall Jason walked over first, and behind him followed another figure who was reasonable but unexpected: Joker Jack.

Jack always seemed to be in a state of not waking up, but everyone here had to admit that Jack was the most experienced driver among all of them and also the best old driver.

Moreover, although the freezing device wasn't big, there were many of them, so they couldn't drive a small car in. And driving a big truck and driving a small car were two completely different things. Only Jack was a truck driver here.

"Okay, now let's start planning the route." Victor took out a map and began to draw the route on it.

While drawing, he paused, and then said, "No, it seems we have to split into two teams. If we drive inside first and then turn, it will take too long and it's too dangerous. It's better to split into two teams and set off, one team to the south side, one team to the north side..."

"I can lead a team alone," Jason said. "But we have no way to split the sea waves, and we are also missing a driver."

"We can find Croc," Dick said. "When he ran a moving company, he also drove a truck all over the street. His skills should be quite good."

Gordon immediately took out his phone and called Killer Croc Wei Lun. As soon as the phone was connected, he heard Wei Lun wailing on the other side.

"Sheriff, the storefront of my company has been flooded! Can you issue me an insurance certificate?!"

"Okay, of course, but you have to survive first. We are missing a driver here. Are you willing to do it?"

"I knew you would have a way. Of course I'm willing, but now there is water outside my house, and I'm trapped..."

Gordon revealed an unbelievable expression and said, "What?!"

"I said there is water outside my house, and I can't get out..."

"You motherf***er are a crocodile!!!"

"Oh, wait a minute, I've been walking upright for too long, I forgot."

A few minutes later, amidst the terrified screams of a group of police officers, the eyes and back of the crocodile were exposed from the water surface. Killer Croc roared and drilled out, scaring people to flee in all directions.

He laughed happily, and then his face was covered by a piece of clothing. Gordon said very disgustedly, "Hurry up and put on your clothes, otherwise I will arrest you for sexual harassment!"

Soon the people were gathered. Now they needed to find another existence capable of splitting the sea waves. Jason thought about it and still called Tim. Soon the sound of a helicopter appeared on the roof of the residential building.

Aisha jumped directly from the helicopter, her two little chubby hands spinning faster than the propeller, and soon swam to the door, running up soaked.

Gordon hurriedly picked her up, but Aisha waved her hand indifferently and said, "I can use the power of the Yellow Lantern to split the sea waves, but after it's done, you have to give me two police cars!"

"What do you want police cars for?"

Aisha revealed her sharp teeth and smiled slightly.

Although Gordon felt sorry for the police cars, he also knew that the situation was urgent. Moreover, Aisha was already asking for a small amount. Under normal circumstances, according to the amount she ground her teeth, how could she not want dozens of them?

In the end, the personnel were divided into two teams. On one side was Joker driving, Raven opening the way, and Dick responsible for dropping the equipment. On the other side was Killer Croc driving, Aisha opening the way, and Jason dropping the equipment.

The entire discussion and gathering time was no more than ten minutes, and the two cars drove into the seawater against the wind and rain.

Accompanied by the small freezing device fixed in front of the car, constantly freezing the road surface into solid ice, the two cars rushed out in the north and south directions.

One yellow and one purple light split the huge sea waves surrounding the east coast, as magnificent and spectacular as Moses parting the sea.

Countless freezing devices were dropped, and the entire Cat Getan coastline of hundreds of kilometers was frozen.

With Victor's debugging of the equipment, the dense ice layer was still spreading toward the sea, and even a thin layer of cold mist rose from the rain clouds in the center of the hurricane. Suddenly, there was only vastness between heaven and earth.
