1 Month To Doomsday But I Awakened Before That - Chapter 39

Su Chen rented an SUV and went to meet Professor Qin.
He was staying at a two-story inn next to the highway.
Since it was located strategically, this inn was always filled with tourists even during the off-season.
As soon as Su Chen entered the inn, he saw two people discussing something intensely.
They were none other than Professor Qin and his assistant.
“How can you believe this? It’s obviously just special effects created by someone to attract attention. You’re a person who works in a scientific research institution. Why are you doubting science?!”
Professor Qin sounded very emotional.
As he spoke, he pushed up his glasses using his hand.
It was as if he was trying to show off his expertise, that his words were facts.
“Professor Qin, how can this be made by special effects? It looks so real!”
The assistant took out his phone and waved it in front of the professor.
Su Chen glanced at the phone. A video was on it. The content of the video seemed to be a flood at a certain place. There did not seem to be anything special about it to warrant such an intense discussion between the two.
“If what you said is real, then we can watch the sea flood the desert tomorrow!”
The more Professor Qin spoke, the more ardent he became.
Then, he turned around and saw Su Chen.
He hurriedly called out to the latter.
“Su Chen, you’re here. Come and take a look too. Tell me if this video is made from special effects or not!”
“What video caused such an emotional debate between the two of you?”
Su Chen asked as he took the assistant’s phone and watched the video.
In the video, waves were flooding and drowning everything in their path.
Upon closer look, Su Chen realized something about the location.
The flood was occurring in the desert!
This was really unheard of.
“Su Chen, what do you think? Apparently, this flood occurred in the desert. Although I’m not a meteorologist, with my many years of experience in archaeology, this is absolutely impossible! How much rain is there in a desert? How could there be a flood? Wouldn’t the desert become an oasis?”
Professor Qin was clearly full of doubt and continued to argue with his assistant fervently.
“Professor Qin, this video has been trending on the internet. Also, look at the location. It’s the Ramakan Desert. I don’t know why the desert is flooded, but we should take precautions. The place we’re going to is very dangerous!”
The assistant was equally zealous. He firmly believed that anything could happen these days.
Moreover, there was a sandstorm that just took place two days ago. The scale of the sandstorm was nothing like they had ever seen before. It was not impossible for more strange incidents to manifest.
Thus, he tried his best to convince the professor.
“Su Chen, what’s your opinion? I think the authenticity of this video needs to be verified. Anyway, I think we should go to the desert tomorrow according to our original plan.”
“We will know the truth after we go there and take a look.”
Su Chen said firmly.
‘Flood? I’ll handle it as it comes. Besides, we’ve already traveled all the way here. There’s no way I’m returning empty-handed.’
He just wanted to go to the location of the sunken ship to sign in.
“Sounds good. Tomorrow morning, we’ll set off for the desert. We’ll see for ourselves if there’s a flood,” said Professor Qin.
The assistant opened his mouth and was about to say something, but he held back instead. Then, he turned around and left resentfully.
After all, he was just an assistant. No matter what, he had to follow Professor Qin’s wishes. He could not just abandon them. If he did, his job as an assistant would come to an end.
“Professor Qin, go and rest up for a little while. We’ll have dinner together at the restaurant next door in 20 minutes.”
Su Chen made an appointment with Professor Qin.
Then, he returned to his room.
Su Chen recalled the scene of the flood that he had seen on the assistant’s phone.
The flood was surging like a torrent. It was very imposing.
At the same time, Su Chen turned on his phone. He wanted to search for more details about the flood. However, no information could be found on the internet.
“Did it get blocked again?!”
Su Chen could not help but sigh.
This matter seemed to be true.
A dessert that was flooded?!
Honestly, it sounded preposterous. If Su Chen had not experienced what he did, he probably would not have believed it either.
‘How can I ensure my safety in a flooding desert? I also need to find the sunken ship as soon as possible.’
The SUV would definitely not work in a place filled with water. If Professor Qin and his assistant were not there, Su Chen could activate his scamper skill and the black hole shield.
He could use the black hole shield to absorb the water infinitely.
Then, his mission would be unimpeded.
When he thought about it, Su Chen felt very satisfied with the black hole shield.
“I want to stay in this room. It has the best view.”
“Sir, I’m sorry. This room is already occupied. We can arrange another room for you.”
Two people’s noisy voices interrupted Su Chen’s thoughts.
It was coming from the corridor..
