Katrin turned around, casting a puzzled look at him.

"What are you talking about? We came here on purpose during such a quiet period. According to our data, the volcano isn't expected to erupt today, and there were no anomalies in the area either.

"Katrin, something is happening underground." Adam said seriously.
