Go back and take a look

When she arrived at the laboratory, the first person she saw was Tang Xiaoyan with sunken eyes, and Zhong Xin standing next to her with a helpless look on his face.

"What are the experimental results?" Jiang Lin looked at her.

"Unfortunately, the living space left for us is getting smaller and smaller." Tang Xiaoyan smiled bitterly. She had made so many efforts, but she still watched the planet deteriorate step by step.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Lin frowned, although he had already guessed that the result would probably be bad.

"A special element has appeared in the seawater. We can only say that its impact on the seabed creatures is unknown, but one thing is certain: it will cause death to humans." Tang Xiaoyan took out a drop of liquid that had condensed into a high concentration.

"This is what I condensed from the toxins inside. It is highly corrosive and hallucinogenic to human tissue." She handed the small bottle to Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin looked at the dark blue, almost black, liquid swaying inside and said, "Maybe our planet hasn't deteriorated, it's just not suitable for us to survive."

"Not necessarily. Although we don't know the impact on marine life, sudden changes in the environment are not a good thing for them." Tang Xiaoyan shook her head and denied Jiang Lin's point of view.

She returned to the test bench. "If there are still people living on the seabed in City B, my advice is to get ashore as soon as possible. The concentration seems to be rising. The longer you stay in there, the more dangerous it is."

"This thing probably has a certain impact on the materials of the submarine base."

"Otherwise, Chen Xu and his team's underwater base shouldn't have had so many small problems in such a short period of time." Tang Xiaoyan said with a frown.

"I understand. You should go and have a good rest first. I would be sad if you died suddenly." Jiang Lin didn't know how to express his concern and got a roll of the eyes from Tang Xiaoyan.

"I'm going to bed soon, good night."

Jiang Lin glanced at the sky outside the window which was already turning pale. A new day was coming. She was no longer sleepy and walked to Base B.

I happened to see Song Si.

"Captain Jiang, what do you want to do by sneaking over here so early in the morning?" Song Si said with a smile.

"Once the patrol is ready, you won't be able to come whenever you want."

Jiang Lin then noticed the huge crowd behind Song Si. She laughed and said, "Where is Chen Xu? I need to talk to him about something."

"I'm in the office. I haven't slept all night. You are all a bunch of workaholics, and you're making me sleep deprived as well." Song Si stroked his face sadly.

Jiang Lin remembered the location of Shen Xu's office, and without saying anything else, he walked towards the direction of Shen Xu's office.

Shen Xu was dozing with his head propped up. The sunlight shone into his dark eyes, making him look more haggard and worn than when he first met him, full of vigor and vitality.

Jiang Lin watched his changes with great interest. This leader of the underwater base was forced to grow rapidly by the dangers on land.

She was very curious about how long it would take Shen Xu to successfully take control of an entire base.

"Knock knock." She knocked on Shen Xu's desk.

Shen Xu was startled and woke up from his light sleep. He was confused for a moment when he saw Jiang Lin in front of him.

"Captain Shen, you don't have enough awareness of safety protection. There was no one at the door and it was open, so I just came in." Jiang Lin found a place to sit down.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Shen Xu frowned subtly. He was too tired and exhausted.

"The changes in the seawater are corrosive and hallucinogenic to humans. Most importantly, they are also damaging to the underwater base. You must hurry and evacuate those on the seabed."

"Otherwise, they will only have death." Jiang Lin's expression was serious.

Shen Xu immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, and since his sister was still at the submarine base, he wanted to ask Jiang Lin for help.

"I can't help you. I have to go to City A to transport all the supplies from City A's underwater base. You can only take responsibility on your own and notify the underwater bases in other cities." Jiang Lin saw what he wanted to say and refused directly. He really couldn't help.

Shen Xu laughed helplessly. Nothing could escape Jiang Lin's eyes. "I will bring the supplies and people from the bottom of the sea as soon as possible. When will you leave for City A?"

"Today, right now." Jiang Lin stood up. She always executed her ideas immediately. In the apocalypse, if she delayed for a moment, the danger would increase exponentially.

Besides, if all the good things in the underwater base were buried in the sea, she would really cry.

"Leave the matter of notifying other underwater bases to me. We have been in contact with other strongholds before." Shen Xu said.

Jiang Lin nodded and left. When he returned to the base, he saw the morning patrol team members.

Everyone has begun to adapt to the new life. Sometimes, she would wonder if she was still in the First Base. So many things had happened in such a short period of time.

It was already summer, and the wind and sand were slowly picking up during the day. Thinking of last summer when she was still in her shabby little house, she suddenly wanted to go back and take a look.

"Host, if you want to go back, go back." 110 suddenly spoke.

"Why do you say that? Is there some treasure there?" Jiang Lin joked.

It was originally a casual joke, but unexpectedly the system was silent. After a while, 110 spoke in a strange tone: "There is no treasure, but you should go back and take a look."

Jiang Lin narrowed his eyes. The small system's answer was very strange.

"Why are you up so early today?" A familiar voice came. It was Wen Yan. He was training with the members of the special forces, just like when they first met.

"We need to go to City A to transfer supplies from the underwater base. The seawater is starting to change. The sooner the better. It's best to leave now."

Wen Yan was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted: "I'll get ready right away." He gave orders to the special forces members behind him, and everyone dispersed in an orderly manner in an instant.

Wen Yan moved quickly. Not long after, Jiang Lin appeared on an armored vehicle, followed by a group of material transport vehicles with large capacity.

Two special forces members drove a car, forming a long line.

"What's wrong? You don't look in a good mood." Wen Yan's tone was normal, but the expression on his face betrayed his panic. Did Jiang Lin regret kissing him yesterday?

Jiang Lin didn't know what was going on in Wen Yan's mind: "I want to go back to where I lived before and take a look."

"That small house in the first base? It's easy to find. The trees you planted are there." Wen Yan said with a sigh of relief.

"No, it's the small house I lived in at the beginning, in the original slums." Jiang Lin said calmly.

"Why do we have to go back?" Wen Yan was a little puzzled. There was nothing in that place. Now there were probably only some dilapidated shells of houses left.

Jiang Lin was stuck and thought for a while: "That place is calling me." After saying that, she was so embarrassed that she tapped her toes on the ground. How could she be so childish?

Wen Yan looked at her expression and tried hard not to laugh: "You go ahead, I'll be there to transport the supplies, but you have to ensure your own safety."

Jiang Lin leaned closer to Wen Yan and tapped his wrist a few times.

Wen Yan's body stiffened at her sudden approach, but fortunately Jiang Lin returned to her original position after a few seconds: "I've unlocked your permissions."

"Transporting supplies is boring, but we don't have much time left." Jiang Lin had a hunch that the ocean would not give them a chance to react slowly, so they had to hurry.

Li Qi stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the long line of supply trucks below. She knew it was Jiang Lin's work without even guessing. How did she suddenly return to City A?

Li Qi, who lost the regeneration function of the sacred tree, almost died in the wilderness, but a mysterious force saved her and the seriously injured Qu Mo.

She began to suspect that the sacred tree had softened its heart, but the power was so pure and different from her previous experiences with sacred trees. But at least she survived, so Li Qi didn't delve into it.

Now she has to thank the sacred tree for turning her into a mutant, otherwise she would have starved to death long ago. However, without the nourishment of the sacred tree, she must find fertile, soft soil and water to nourish herself.

"What are they going to do?" Qu Mo obviously noticed the long line of supply trucks on the overpass below.

"I don't know, but it has nothing to do with us." Li Qi knew that the matter that made Jiang Lin come back despite the danger must be very important, but now her position was no longer opposite to Jiang Lin, and she had no interest in understanding it.

"Yes, I remember there is a pool of water in front, and there should be a series of pools of water over there." Qu Mo vaguely remembered that he had been here to play, and there was a series of pools of water of different sizes.

These days are the happiest time for Qu Mo. It seems that there are only him and Li Qi in this big world.

The car drove all the way to the seaside base, and Wen Yan got out of the armored vehicle. Jiang Lin did not participate in what happened next. She moved directly to the driver's seat: "I'm leaving." She said softly.

Wen Yan nodded and waved at her: "Don't worry."

In just one year, the layout of City A has changed a bit, but it won't change at all, except that some buildings have become older.

Jiang Lin drove for about half an hour and arrived at the starting point.

This place was even more dilapidated, barely visible in the summer sandstorm. She suspected she would be killed by falling rocks as soon as she walked in.

Touching her helmet, Jiang Lin walked inside. Even though it was daytime, it was very dark inside, so she had to turn on the helmet light.

Building materials kept falling from the aging walls and roof. Jiang Lin had to be careful at all times. It would be too embarrassing to be crushed to death here.

A moment later she appeared outside the door of her cabin.

The moment she held the door handle, she felt a little dazed, as if she had just walked out of this door yesterday wearing tattered clothes. It turned out that she had not been back for so long.

"Click." You twisted the slightly rusty door lock, letting a cloud of dust fall as the door opened. Jiang Lin activated the helmet's self-cleaning function.

Only then can the dust-covered glass become clean again.

She stepped on the warped floor in her boots, and the dust-covered mirror at the door reflected her figure vaguely.

Nothing has changed, yet everything has changed.
