Chapter 1 The Tenth Year of Natural Disaster
As to when this natural disaster that swept the entire Blue Star started, everyone on Blue Star except Neon believed that it was the day when Neon Country began to discharge nuclear-contaminated water into the clear sea, despite the solemn protests of neighboring countries.
Three months after the nuclear-contaminated water continued to be discharged into the sea, the Neon Country volcano erupted. Volcanic ash, hot magma, tsunamis and major earthquakes caused by the volcanic eruption engulfed the Neon Country, leaving only less than 5% of the total population. The Chinese escaped by chance.
Before humans could recover from this "disaster" that shocked the entire planet, dozens of large volcanoes distributed on the five continents of Blue Star erupted one after another. Fresh water across the planet became unfit for drinking due to volcanic ash pollution. Months of acid rain caused agriculture to collapse across the planet.
Half a year after the volcanic eruption, Blue Star's atmospheric visibility began to improve. Just as the Blue Star people walked out of their homes to celebrate the end of the disaster and prepare to rebuild their homes, an even greater catastrophe suddenly struck.
A star eight thousand light years away from the Blue Star exploded as a supernova, causing a super intense gamma ray burst to change direction for unknown reasons and rush towards the Blue Star, which was not within the scope of the impact.
After just a few seconds of ultraviolet flash, an electron pulse covering the entire hemisphere attacked the Blue Star. The intense radiation completely paralyzed communications on the two continents directly impacted, and the power supply was also cut off. At the same time, all artificial satellites outside the Blue Star's atmosphere Suffering devastating damage and losing contact with the surface.
Shortly after people on two continents in the dark hemisphere woke up and walked out of their homes, a huge amount of high-speed meson particles came out. The cells of all organisms that were directly exposed to the meson flow were penetrated, their DNA was completely destroyed, and the world turned into hell.
Gamma ray bursts not only killed most of the living things in the two major states, but also caused chaos in the magnetic field of the Blue Star. Two mysterious elements suddenly appeared in the atmosphere of the Blue Star, which were later named "敕" and "鐐" by Chinese scientists.
)
Yi, thunder comes out of the mountains and all things sprout.
Under the influence of these two elements, all creatures on Blue Star undergo great evolution in a short period of time, and at the same time launch a major challenge to humans at the top of the food chain. The all-Blue Star **** survival mode is officially launched.
Xia Qing’s mother died in the insect plague in the fourth year of the natural disaster, and her father died in the beast wave in the fifth year of the natural disaster.
In the tenth year of the natural disaster, Xia Qing was still alive.
"boom!"
A stone brick weighing more than 300 kilograms fell to the ground. The startled recordkeeper Lao Zhong raised his face that was pitted by acid rain and saw clearly the thin woman with dark red skin standing in front of the stone brick wearing a green ID tag. , suppressing his anger, he muttered, "Take a break when you are tired. Breaking the stone slab does not count as points."
Xia Qing wiped the sweat and lime off her face with her sleeves, and rarely said, "Uncle Zhong, I'm leaving."
Lao Zhong didn't expect Xia Qing to talk to him. He stood up with a smile on his face and said, "You want to go hunting with the team? When will you come back? Can you leave a pound of good meat for my uncle? I will exchange it with you at 1.5 times the points."
After the great evolution of all Blue Star organisms, human bones have become tougher and muscles stronger. A very small number of people have evolved their bodies several times or even ten times and become evolved humans.
Evolved humans have mastered more survival resources, and their living conditions are much better than ordinary people who are struggling on the edge of life and death.
Xia Qing is a level four power evolved person, which means her current power is four times that of an ordinary person after evolution. Although level four power is nothing among the evolved people, it is enough to make ordinary people jealous, fearful, and flattering.
Xia Qing, the evolver, often kept a straight face and said nothing, because he just didn’t want to deal with the scene in front of him.
However, she won’t have to deal with it in the future.
"It's not about hunting, it's about leaving the safe zone." Xia Qing smiled, but her expression was stiff because she hadn't smiled for many years, which looked particularly scary to Lao Zhong.
The corners of his rotten eyes were stretched open, and his eyeballs bulged out. He asked tremblingly, "A large group of evolved beasts are coming again. Can our base be able to sustain it? Wasn't it said in the broadcast yesterday that the evolved ferocious beasts have been driven away?" Have you traveled hundreds of miles? The wave of evolved beasts is coming again?"
The four ordinary people carrying stones from behind heard what Lao Zhong said and were so frightened that the stones dropped their hands and were about to hit one of them.
Xia Qing quickly grabbed the stone with quick eyes and hands, placed it firmly on the ground, dusted off the soil on her body, and explained, "No, I want to farm."
Farming? Farm!
There have been rumblings on the radio for several days about asking people to go out to farm, but people who have managed to survive to the tenth year of the end of the world are very precious about their lives, and no one wants to go out and take risks. Rumors have begun to spread in the safe zone, saying that if no one takes the initiative to leave the safe zone to farm, the next step will be to forcibly send ordinary people out to die.
Unexpectedly, there are actually people who want to go, and they are evolved people who can live well in the safe zone.
After reacting, Lao Zhong hurriedly caught up with Xia Qing, "Farming is good! Don't you remember my eldest son? Zhong Tao, he works in the team, I'll tell him later, Qing, what's going to happen to you in the future?" Just ask Brother Tao to do it for you."
Lao Zhong's son Zhong Tao joined the army at Huisan Base and is now serving in the convoy and is still a squad leader. This is the reason why the Zhong family can do well in the safe zone and why Xia Qing took the initiative to talk to Lao Zhong today. reason.
Xia Qing smiled stiffly, "Okay, I'll have to trouble Brother Tao to help me transport food and prey back in exchange for supplies." Lao Zhong smiled with his face full of bumps, "It's what he should do, no trouble, no trouble at all. What kind of land did you get?"
"You haven't received it yet, so let's go." After achieving the goal, Xia Qing no longer forced herself to engage in strange interactions that were more tiring than carrying rocks, and quickly rushed to the mission hall of the safe zone, bypassing the crowd watching the excitement under the territory's electronic bulletin board. Stand at the front of the territory desk.
"What are you doing? You don't understand the principle of first come, first served?" Seeing Xia Qing grab the first place, several people under the bulletin board quit and rolled up their sleeves and rushed over.
Xia Qing turned around. The people who were rushing towards her stopped immediately when they saw that she was wearing a green badge.
Xia Qing clenched his fist and turned his wrist, slowly raising his eyelids, "If you want to claim territory, get in line."
Today is a territory day, so there are so many people watching the excitement. Although these people had not decided whether to receive it or not, they still stood behind Xia Qing and lined up.
Seeing that they were not making trouble, the two soldiers on duty put away their guns and returned to their original positions.
Most people have a herd mentality. When they see someone queuing up, people under the bulletin board immediately rush over.
Whether you accept it or not, we will wait in line first.
The movement here alarmed everyone in the hall. A woman with a green card and two long scars on her face came over and greeted Xia Qing, "Are you going to farm?"
Xia Qing nodded, "Sister Xu, are you here to receive the mission?"
In the past few years after his father passed away, Xia Qing often went on missions with Xu Juan's Dongyang team. Xu Juan was a warm-hearted person and already regarded Xia Qing as one of her own.
Xu Juan looked around and found that there were no auditory evolvers around, so she lowered her voice and asked, "Are you offending someone? I'll tell Dongyang, will you join our team?"
It’s not that you can’t survive if you offend others, but which evolver would let go of a good life in a safe zone and risk his life to dig food from the soil?
Xia Qing shook his head, "I didn't offend anyone, I just like this."
Then you can’t die just because you like it.
Just as Xu Juan was about to speak, she heard the sound of a car braking and leather shoes hitting the ground outside the hall.
It has been ten years since the natural disaster, and there are only a few people in the safety area who still wear fine leather shoes. Xu Juan turned to look at the door of the hall, and saw a voluptuous woman wearing a slim leather coat, who was so clean that she was incompatible with everyone. After entering the door, she walked straight towards this Come.
Tang Lu is the niece of Tang Zhengrong, the second-in-command at Huisan Base, and the daughter of Tang Zhengsu, the captain of the Sufeng team ranked first in the base. She is the most capable woman in the entire safe zone. Whoever meets her will be unlucky. Xu Juan is hated by her because of a trivial matter. Now, Avoid her if you can.
Xia Qing moved her lips slightly and said in a barely audible voice, "Sister Xu, go and do your work. Let's get together when we have time."
Xu Juan nodded slightly, turned around and quickly returned to her team mates.
The crisp sound of leather shoes echoed in the hall. Most of the people in the hall looked at Tang Lu, wondering which man here she had fallen in love with today, or which woman she was unhappy with.
Tang Lu, who was wearing a yellow card for ordinary people, walked to the desk on the west side of the hall with an impatient look. She raised her chin and lowered her eyes, looking at the green card worn on Xia Qing's chest in a condescending manner.
Xia Qing raised his eyes and glanced at her, then calmly took a step back.
"Hmph." Tang Lu snorted proudly. After twisting her waist to occupy the first position, she took out a handkerchief sprayed with perfume and fanned it in front of her nose. "What does it smell like? It smelt people to death, and I don't know how to wash it." ”
After nuclear-contaminated water and acid rain that lasted for half a year were mixed into oceans and lakes, Blue Star water resources can only be used after purification. Due to the high cost of purification, water in the safety zone needs to be redeemed with points. Even having a full meal and a drink of water has become a luxury for ordinary people, so how can they be willing to use their life-extending points to take a bath.
Evolved person Xia Qing's life is better than that of ordinary people. She can only take a quick bath once a week, but today she came here deliberately dirty. Although her thin but pretty face was painted dark red, it was best not to be seen by the jealous Tang Lu, let alone Tang Zhengrong and Tang Zhengsu.
Dear book friends, we have started a new article.
It’s still a farming story, it’s still about daily life, but this time the background has changed from ancient times to Blue Star after the natural disaster. If you are interested, please come with me to farm in the tenth year of the natural disaster.
