Chapter 43 Chapter 43 Fog Disaster

The conversation with Wang Mingming in the afternoon was like being poured with boiling cement from head to toe. Jiang Qian sat there, feeling that she didn't even have the strength to move.

Putting aside Wang Mingming's personal views and concerns about the future of the second mutation of the corpse cave, the most critical factor that Jiang Ying extracted from it has nothing to do with her.

Lu Suye was interrupted by her "disappearance" when he was dealing with this difficult matter. Then, he took the elite psychics of the guild and frantically searched for her in the Paradise Valley.

This also resulted in the original plan for dealing with the corpse cave having to be replaced with a backup plan. The corpse cave, which had not been completely eliminated, transformed into a flapping butterfly that attracted the white mist poisonous cloud, spreading the dark cloud of death over every life in the Paradise Valley.

Theoretically, he was not the root cause of the Bai Lan poisonous cloud, but there was no doubt that he was the indirect cause of this disaster and the culprit could not be removed no matter what.

If... if she hadn't been kidnapped by Wen Hai that day; if she hadn't intentionally or deliberately pulled off her hat and exposed her gender because she was disgusted by the crowded crowd in the trading market, but had chosen to go all the way and followed Si Mu in closely, not giving others a chance to take advantage of her... If again, she had never thought of going to the Anle District at all, and forced herself to suppress her curiosity and boredom, and stayed obediently in the villa, not causing trouble for others.

Then none of these things would happen.

There is no time machine or regret medicine in the world.

In life, as Lu Suye said, there are no ifs.

Those things happened, they happened.

Moreover, they all came together to weave a dense big network, jointly adding fuel to the flames of the "doomsday" that is about to come to Paradise Valley in the end times.

A chill came over her, and Jiang Qian suddenly felt very cold as she sat on the bed hugging her legs.

Cold and scared, she had caused a huge mess and pushed everyone to the brink of death. She didn't know what to do or what she should do to make up for it.

Until a ball of moist fire enveloped her.

Lu Suye finished taking a shower and came to hug me clumsily.

He was naked, and warm water droplets were scattered on his muscular skin.

Idiot who can't even wipe his body clean!

Normally, Jiang Xi would stretch out her forearms and push him to keep distance!

"You big pervert!"

For his impatience.

Jiang Xi always disliked it, "I hate you so much."

But Lu Suye would always explain that he was not stupid, that was just his fresh sweat.

Then, he shamelessly used the pajamas she was wearing to wipe the water droplets off his body.

Is this possible to get it this way?

It's useless to rub it, more will flow out in a while...

After not seeing you for a few days, "I miss you."

I'm going crazy thinking about it.

The most effective way to relieve his longing for her is also his way of "loving" her.

Exhausted, he lay flat on the bed.

After not sleeping for such a long time, he urgently needs a good sleep to restore his strength and face more difficult challenges.

What was surprising was that the woman who always complained about being exhausted and wanted to sleep more than he did, now snuggled up to his chest, like a smart kitten, full of energy in the dark night.

Lu Suye opened his eyes a little and looked at her.

Jiang Xi's face was flushed, and the residual heat had not yet faded.

"How do you feel?" she asked quietly.

When faced with ambiguous questions, men tend to try to understand them using their own thoughts.

"It feels great," Lu Suye said without hesitation, "It feels so good."

He sat up slightly and let Jiang Xi rest her head on his arm. The man's muscular arm was thicker than Jiang Xi's thigh, and it was both hard and soft.

He held her in his arms and stroked her soft cheek, "I want to die on you."

Having long been accustomed to the man's vulgar language in bed, Jiang Ying was not too shy. Her heart was already filled with fear and worry.

Given her current situation, the more Lu Suye treated her like this, the more at ease she would feel.

But... she could no longer act like she used to, acting like a spoiled child in front of him and telling him how scared she was after knowing that such a horrible thing was about to happen.

I hope he will hug her, hug her tightly, and tell her not to worry, he will take care of everything.

Because, after recognizing the reality, Jiang Qian knew that she was just a tool to make him "happy".

Now it can also be called a tool that causes big trouble.

Putting all this aside, Jiang Qian really wanted to ask Lu Suye how Paradise Valley would respond to the white mist and poisonous cloud brought about by the corpse cave that had undergone the second special mutation?

Do they have to move?

And...will this incident really cause the deaths of many innocent people?

And since he can go home, does that mean that there is no problem?

The glimmer of hope in her heart filled Jiang Qian's chest, making her feel like she was about to explode.

She could hardly bear it any longer.

Lu Suye spoke before her.

"The person who played the recording has been found."

Jiang Xi: “!”

All the people who had placed eavesdropping devices in the villa were caught.

Lu Suye noticed that Jiang Xi was acting unusually today.

Unlike himself, who was obsessed with her all the time, on the contrary, every time she took the initiative to "show her affection" to him, she had a purpose.

It just so happened that Si Mu had already reported the results of the investigation to him, so he took this opportunity to tell Jiang Qian.

"You can't judge a person by appearance. Sometimes, the less interested a man seems in women, the more he desires them in his heart! He's really good at pretending."

"Unlike me, my main focus is to face my true feelings and seek truth from facts."

Jiang Xi: “…”

Lu Suye was talking about those crazy and perverted people who took the risk of planting eavesdropping devices in their homes and eavesdropping on their bed.

They were also the "honest men" who were kicked out of the guild a few days ago for breaking the rules and losing their superpowers when the mental power test report came out.

But Jiang Xi's heart was in a mess.

He better really just be talking about them.

After these people were driven out, the guild members found the remaining "information" on the eavesdropping device in the secret box when they went to their house. The information was exactly the same as what Si Mu had sensed in the villa.

Originally, Si Mu would report the investigation results to Lu Suye immediately, but in view of the vicious incident of kidnapping, his attention was entirely on Jiang Qian that day. Wang Mingming, who was responsible for dealing with the former Han Kuang members who broke the rules, had no idea that these people were related to the recording incident.

As a result, due to information asymmetry, the two events passed each other by, resulting in the mistake of letting the mastermind behind the scenes get away.

These people just left like that. No wonder they left so easily. They were typical thieves with a guilty conscience.

But the world is so big that I don’t know where to look.

However, Lu Suye promised Jiang Qian that even if he had to chase them to the ends of the earth, he would catch these bastards and fulfill the promise he made to her.

But the things that she cared about so much before, and even made her so anxious that she was willing to personally participate in the investigation, now, couldn't make a splash in her heart.

Jiang Xi remained silent.

"Wait until this tornado passes."

Lu Suye promised that he would give her an explanation within three months.

As he spoke, he gently kissed Jiang Xi's eyelashes.

"Tornado?" Jiang Xi's long, narrow, curled eyelashes trembled.

Yes, a tornado is about to hit Paradise Valley.

-

If Jiang Qian had not learned the truth from Wang Mingming a long time ago, she would really have thought that the "White Mist Poison Cloud" was just a common tornado disaster in nature that Lu Suye mentioned casually.

However, whether it is the white poisonous cloud or the tornado disaster, they all have one characteristic: they pass through the ground.

Then, the corresponding avoidance method is not difficult to guess.

——Underground air-raid shelter.

Compared to Han Kuang's "being caught off guard", the Bliss Guild had already made preparations several months ago.

Not only the Paradise Guild area, but also the Psychic Area and the Comfort Area where civilians live have caves dug underground that can accommodate tens of thousands of people. The space is large enough to accommodate five times the number of people in the Paradise Valley.

Therefore, although the emergency meetings held for several hours in the war conference room made the situation seem quite tense, in fact, the reality was far less serious than expected.

Moreover, the scale of this white mist poisonous cloud was not as fierce as the poisonous cloud that swept over the Han Kuang base.

The focus of the meeting, and also the most fundamental contradiction that prevented consensus from being reached for several consecutive days, was actually mainly concentrated on the discussion of "sacrifice".

Because the so-called "Bai Lan Poison Cloud" is like a natural disaster that cannot be interfered with by human power, but in fact, no one knows whether it is a product generated autonomously by nature, or an "attack" launched by the mysterious "Zombie King" Bai Lan on the base of human survivors under the control of the zombie virus under some unknown specific conditions and mechanisms.

The second mutation of the corpse cave is the most direct fuse and the clarion call for attack.

At present, the major bases know very little about Bai Lan, or in other words, only a very small number of super-large bases have conducted research. However, any "past experience" is extremely rare and precious, and it is worth taking out every word and every detail and carefully considering them to ensure that there is no room for error.

Since we can temporarily attribute the Bai Lan poisonous cloud to a "disaster", the zombie king is almost a real walking evil god in the world that cannot be touched by human psychics.

So, when "God" is angry, what the ants can do, besides "lingering on", is of course to offer sacrifices.

Ancient books record that whenever the river floods, it rises several times from upstream to downstream, submerging the villages along the river.

By next year, this land nourished by water will be quite fertile.

And every time a major disaster occurs, it always takes away something as a reward for its "worthwhile trip".

There is no need for those former Han Kuang team members who are still stubbornly staying in Paradise to remind them of this. The logistics support department of the Paradise Guild guarantees that they can definitely complete the task perfectly.

These auxiliary psychics never thought that one day they would be able to use their abilities in this life-and-death battle against disaster!

After all, compared to charging into battle, fighting zombies and hostile guilds on the front line, going through wind and rain, and being in danger of their lives at any time, the offensive superpower guild members do what outsiders consider to be "easy" work.

Grow vegetables and raise cattle.

In the end times, there is a shortage of materials, and it is impossible to meet the diverse needs of residents in food, clothing, housing and transportation that arise with economic growth, as in times of peace and prosperity. In order to pursue profits, capital will even create demand where there is none, and pursue novel tastes.

All kinds of strange wild game are served on human tables regardless of their lives.

Currently, the livestock area of ​​the Paradise Guild only has a few of the most common livestock. After generations of improvement, they grow fast, are quickly marketed, and have high meat production, thus efficiently achieving the daily protein intake required by humans living in the Paradise Valley.

During these meetings, the elder managers also discussed the specific placement points of the specially prepared "sacrifices" in Paradise Valley, hoping to "get away with it" and deceive God.

I don't know if it's because he couldn't get a word in, so he wanted to make his presence felt and take this opportunity to show how "knowledgeable" he is, or if he unconsciously revealed the darkest side of his heart.

"When it comes to feeding zombies, the most effective thing is of course humans!"

A voice sounded faintly.

In an instant, the conference room was silent.

"Heh," the atmosphere was not right, and the effect of interrupting was so good that it was terrifying.

In an instant, everyone noticed him and stared at him intently.

The outspoken S-class psychic who had survived the Han Mad Fog Disaster laughed awkwardly and said, "Just pretend I didn't say anything."

"Go on, go on..."

At this point, the fig leaf of only dozens of people surviving out of the tens of thousands of people in Han Kuang was completely torn off. The internal guild management was inactive, and several forces were fighting for power. They were all thinking about their own interests and did not treat the human survivors who came to them, built bases for them, and created wealth for them as human beings in the past.

Even though the disaster had been predicted, on the eve of the arrival of the white fog, the guild not only did not issue any warnings, but also did not take any rescue measures. It treated that day as an extremely ordinary day. The human shelter area in the Han Kuang base was still bustling with people. They were down-to-earth and hardworking, working hard every day, wanting to fight for a better tomorrow for themselves and their families, and to create a happy life in the cruel doomsday.

In contrast, the guild and psychic areas were as quiet as a cemetery. The managers had mostly fled and used their psychic powers to avoid the spotlight.

The result is predictable. The white fog clouds flying at low altitude and brushing the ground, covering the sky and the sun, arrived as expected.

It came quickly and left quickly, and once it left, it never looked back.

Perhaps, enough people have "eaten" from here.

And this is the living "evidence" that proves the rumor that "human" is more effective.

Because these white fogs can actually turn around.

Like a brush, it swept back and forth in the area of ​​the corpse cave where the second special mutation occurred, sweeping away life.

He won't give up until he's satisfied.

Han Kuang has a bad reputation, which is well known to everyone.

The reputation of the Paradise Guild outside is not that good.

Any powerful guild will have some shameful stains on it.

They are overbearing and strong-willed. In rare cases, they will unilaterally break treaties and break their promises, and their moral standards are worrying.

However, it is still far from being as brutal as a beast who does not take human life seriously.

Therefore, the brief silence at the meeting and the momentary hesitation in the minds of the veteran managers ultimately failed to change their plan of feeding the "fake sacrifice" to conceal the truth.

Everything remains the same.

-

A tornado is coming.

After all preparations were completed, the Paradise Guild issued this "instruction" throughout the valley.

In order to ensure their own safety, everyone needs to take refuge in the underground air-raid shelter in advance and wait until the alarm is lifted before coming out. Please strictly follow this.

No one was an exception, and Jiang Ting naturally also received this warning leaflet.

The signature of Lu Suye, the president of the Paradise Guild, was at the end. She folded the notice and put it in her bag.

This time, she will definitely obey.

The abnormal energy fluctuation curve detected on the ground has increasingly intense peak-to-valley changes.

A few hours before the poisonous cloud arrived, people wearing the uniforms of the Paradise Guild arrived at the president's villa.

They led Jiang Qian to the underground shelter in the Paradise Guild area.

On the way, they happened to meet the guild's core combat force. Through the car window, Jiang Qian saw Lu Suye surrounded by top psychics.

And he also saw her.

However, he only glanced at her briefly before looking away.

He is the president and has to set an example in many things. He cannot keep her by his side all the time.

The space around Lu Suye was gradually filled by guild members, blocking Jiang Qian. They still had a lot to do to deal with this disaster.

When they arrived at the shelter, Jiang Qian discovered that the Paradise Guild had prepared a separate shelter room for her. Lu Suye was still quite cautious and refused to lock his wife in the same place with another man, not even for a second.

The person in charge of bringing her here is also a close confidant among the veteran administrators.

This single-room shelter has a table, a bed, a vent, and a separate bathroom. It also contains enough fresh water and food to support one person for at least two or three days.

However, it is estimated that this "tornado" will last for half a day at most and will then leave the valley.

Jiang Xi lay on the table, gently stroking the hair on Jiang Yongzhuang's back with her hand, feeling both nervous and lucky.

Will everything be fine once the wind dies down?

And will her mistakes be written off just like that?

She doesn't know.

I hope so.

Jiang Ying prayed silently that everyone would be fine.

-2 hours before the "tornado" passed-

The Anle District was deserted, with not a single person to be seen on the streets.

There are still many vehicles on the road in the superpower area, and the visibility on the road is low.

-1 hour before the tornado passed through-

At the material transport outpost, large trucks loaded with heavy cargo drove out from the open checkpoint under the guidance of signal lights.

The vice-chairman kept looking down at the time on his watch.

-

Bang bang bang!

There's a knock on the door.

There was a strange face outside the door of the underground shelter room, but the clothes were very familiar, the uniform of the Paradise Guild.

The man was holding a black airline box.

"Ma'am, animals and humans need to be isolated separately."

So, this box is used to hold Jiang Yongzhuang.

Jiang Ting was stunned for a moment, "Why do we have to separate?"

She can take care of her kitten by herself, and Zhuangzhuang has always been very well behaved.

Facing Jiang Ting's question, the visitor took his time.

The animal scent emanating from Jiang Yongzhuang might interfere with their plans. Although he was just a cat, it was a matter of life and death, and no carelessness was allowed.

Therefore, all animals need to be placed in a special place for closed isolation. Vice President Jingcheng will use the spatial ability to ensure that the breath will not leak.

If the cat is left here alone, there is a high possibility that it will be smelled by the poisonous cloud, which is equivalent to a time bomb emitting red light from the ground.

"Please abide by the guild's rules and regulations, cooperate with our work, and don't make things difficult for us, okay?"

The man was helpless but anxious.

Time is running out.

Jiang Xi: “…”

This is the rule.

She has suffered enough from violating regulations and acting on her own initiative.

Moreover, she really didn't want to cause trouble to others because of her willful behavior.

So, even though she was reluctant to part with Jiang Yongzhuang, Jiang Ying still picked up the kitten that was sleeping soundly on the table.

"Meow??" (Where are you going?)

(A dark box? The master patted my butt and let me in.)

"Meow??" (The door closes behind him)

"Meow!" (Master, aren't you going?)

Jiang Yongzhuang was turning around in the small black box that was being carried in someone's hands and was shaking back and forth. He struggled to stick his cat-like face out from the ventilated railing and stared at Jiang Xi with his bright big eyes as she was getting farther and farther away from him.

"Yongzhuang, be good," Jiang Ting comforted it, "I'll come find you right away when it's over!"

"Meow~" Jiang Yongzhuang understood and stopped making noise.

(I am very obedient and will behave well.)

After turning a corner, the owner's figure completely disappeared from its sight.

Jiang Yongzhuang lay down in the flight box and closed his eyes.

Have a good sleep, and when you wake up, you will see your master again!

Sitting on the chair in the shelter room, Jiang Xi's ears echoed with the conversation she had with the guild member before putting Jiang Yongzhuang into the box.

There was no signal underground and she couldn't contact anyone.

"Do you have ID?" She asked cautiously.

Suspicion was practically written on his face.

But the other party was not angry at all and smiled gently.

"Guild member number: 019 Lan Zhi."

The first 20 numbers are all from the Elders Management Council, and they are all Lu Suye’s confidants.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the "tornado" was about to come.

"Okay." Jiang Xi put her heart back in her stomach.

She was too nervous.

The guild has already cleared out a wave of dissidents, and ordinary people can't wear this kind of clothes, can't come here, and can't contact her.

don’t worry.

-

-2 hours after the tornado passed through-

The door to the underground shelter was opened, and the "White Mist Poison Cloud" had already passed through.

Guild Hall.

Follow-up closing meeting.

The door suddenly opened.

Can't stop it!

It was mainly because of this person that the guards at the door didn’t dare to stop him.

"Lu Suye!"

Hearing this voice, the person sitting in the main seat stood up immediately.

I almost shouted "Here" on the spot.

How did you find this place?

As soon as she appeared, he didn't need to say anything, and all the men looked at his wife instantly.

Jiang Xi's eyes were red and bloodshot, "Where's Yongzhuang?"

"Yongqiang?"

There is always a conspicuous bag, "Sister-in-law! Yongqiang is here!"

As he spoke, he pointed to the "Pamir Plateau" beside him.

He Yongqiang: "Your mother!"

What's the point of listening at this time? Can't you see that the other person is in a hurry?

Conspicuous Bag: “…” Why are you cursing? It’s so uncultured.

But he was even more surprised, "Aren't you here?"

"My cat?"

Jiang Xi's emotions could no longer be controlled, like a flood bursting through a dam.

"Lu Suye...where's my cat?"

Tears kept pouring out of her eyes, forming a small stream in the rainy season.

“Where did you take my cat!!!”

Seeing Jiang Ting out of control like this,

In this situation, Lu Suye was completely dumbfounded.

"Your cat..."

He didn't dare ask.

Gone?
