Apocalyptic Wasteland: I Hold the Infrastructure System

Jiang Lin was an orphan. Just as she finally got into university, the apocalypse descended. All land was polluted, and plants could not grow.

Relying on years of survival experience from the ...

Jiang Lin and Wen Yan looked at each other, immediately jumped out of the car and ran towards the beach, followed by the others.

From a distance, I saw a girl running quickly from the seaside to the beach. Because she ran too fast, she tripped over a rock below and fell forward.

Jiang Lin quickly caught her, and the girl fell into her arms. Xie Anran only felt that she had entered a thin and strong embrace, and there was a faint scent of soapberry. She looked up and saw that it was Jiang Lin.

"Minister Jiang... Minister Jiang, I..." She was so nervous that she stuttered a little.

Jiang Lin helped her up: "Tell me what happened slowly, don't panic." Her brows were slightly frowned, but her eyes were soothing and calm, which made Xie Anran relax.

"The sea water has changed a bit. It feels different from before." Xie Anran lowered his head and looked at his feet. He seemed to have twisted his ankle just now.

"Sea water?" Jiang Lin looked at the calm seashore. After the storm that day, except for some shellfish and garbage washed ashore, the sea water had become as calm as usual.

Now the waves were lapping calmly on the beach, looking no different than usual.

But in Xie Anran's eyes, the calm sea surface was like a giant beast with its mouth open, about to swallow all of them into its stomach.

Jiang Lin noticed that Xie Anran's legs were a little uncomfortable to walk, so she carefully walked her back to the hospital. On the way, Xie Anran turned and looked at her: "Minister Jiang, do you believe that injuries can stimulate some potential?"

Xie Anran's words made Jiang Lin stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted: "I believe it." She bound herself to the system when she was on the verge of death. Could it be that Xie Anran did the same?

"These past few days I've discovered that I seem to be able to see some things that will happen in the future." She looked into Jiang Lin's eyes and said seriously.

Jiang Lin's face showed no sign of change, and Xie Anran was a little unsure of her thoughts. She wondered if Jiang Lin would think she was a psychopath.

"What do you see the future like?"

"Ah?" Xie Anran didn't react for a moment. What was Jiang Lin asking?

"When I was looking at some scenes, some unfamiliar pictures would suddenly flash in my mind. Today when I was walking on the beach, I saw the sea getting darker and darker, as if it was dead." Xie Anran's voice was trembling.

Jiang Lin could sense her fear from beside her: "Don't be afraid, even if the future is really like this, we will definitely have a way to deal with it then."

Tang Xiaoyan collected a bottle of sea water and put it together with the moss she brought back from City B.

Jiang Lin helped Xie Anran in and said, "She seems to have sprained her ankle."

Tang Xiaoyan threw a medicine over: "Rub it on yourself."

Jiang Lin caught the medicine flying in the air with both hands, but his eyes were focused on the two glass bottles of Tang Xiaoyan: "Be careful!" she suddenly shouted.

Scaring everyone around her, Tang Xiaoyan's hands trembled and she almost dropped the test tube. "What's wrong?"

Jiang Lin blinked. She seemed to see the moss in the glass tube move. "Maybe my eyes are blurry. I seemed to see it move."

After hearing her words, Tang Xiaoyan looked at the moss in the test tube carefully again. It didn't look like anything special.

She looked at Jiang Lin in confusion, and Jiang Lin shook his head. She was not sure if she had seen it wrong.

Out of caution, she gave up opening the sealed lid of the moss organism: "Then let's observe it for a while." She locked the glass test tube in the freezer.

When the big iron door of the freezer was closed, the moss creatures inside shivered from the freezing temperature. They had to give up their plans to make trouble and huddled in the test tubes to sustain their lives.

But Jiang Lin and Tang Xiaoyan have not yet discovered that these things that look like plants are actually clumps of living creatures.

Wen Yan took Shen Xu towards the direction of the radio. Shen Xu said that he wanted to report to the people below that he was safe, otherwise someone would worry about him.

Seeing the expression on Shen Xu's face, Wen Yan raised an eyebrow and walked out of the door, leaving him some privacy.

The radio carried what Shen Xu wanted to say to the deep sea of ​​City B. Song Si was taking a nap on the table. In her dream, she saw the originally calm and dark sea, as if it had grown eyes, staring at the survival base where they were.

Countless whirlpools seemed to tear apart the place where they lived. Song Si woke up from the nightmare, gasping for breath, her forehead already covered with sweat.

The radio next to him made a buzzing sound. Song Si turned it on and received Shen Xu's radio.

Her hands froze, and the indescribable panic in her heart slowly disappeared when she received the radio message, and she unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Memories of the afternoon unfold as usual in the cool metal conference room.

"Song, Shen Xu left the survival base without consulting anyone this time. This is a very irresponsible thing to do. He must return to the base as soon as possible."

"If the public knew he had left the base, they would panic."

Song Si could hear voices of disapproval and opposition, and she thought of Shen Xu's expressionless face. He had gone ashore, leaving her alone here to be besieged.

Song Si's hand knocked on the table in the conference room, making a dull sound.

The conference room fell silent in an instant, and everyone looked at Song Si in horror. No matter how long it had been, they would never forget the ferocity with which Song Si had killed zombies on land.

They couldn't afford to offend this woman. In Song Si's eyes, killing them was as difficult as cutting a watermelon.

"Chen Xu has safely reached land and reunited with the survivors of City A. He said everything is considered a victory. The survivors of City A are very capable, and we are fully capable of continuing to live on land."

After saying this, Song Si left the meeting room without looking back, leaving a group of people looking at each other in confusion.

"What annoyance!" she rubbed her head. Pain surged, and her back slid down the metal wall, finally landing on the ground.

This is the control room of the underwater base. Apart from her and Shen Xu, few people come here. She can release her emotions here without any scruples.

Shen Xu waited in the room for a while, but he didn't receive a call back from Song Si. He unconsciously exerted force on his hands that were supporting the table, and the blue veins were faintly visible on his white skin.

Wen Yan stayed outside for a while. After all, Shen Xu was still a stranger, and he couldn't trust him completely. He knocked on the door three times and walked in directly. "Did you send it successfully?"

Shen Xu looked up at him and forced a stiff smile: "Success."

"Then I'll take you to where you'll live." There will definitely be more and more people at the seaside base, so Jiang Lin specially built a small high-rise building before going to City B.

Wen Yan took him to a room on the first floor.

Outside the window here is the blue sea and sky, and the sunlight can shine through the window into the room. Shen Xu looked at all this greedily. This is what he wanted. His hand touched the empty sunlight.

After a while, he sat down. Song Si hadn't called back, which made him very worried. Shen Xu regretted his rashness a little, wondering if the people at the survivor base would embarrass her.

After Wen Yan arranged Shen Xu's affairs, he reunited with Jiang Lin and the others. The sun was surprisingly bright today, and everyone was lazily basking in the sun outside.

Shen Xu even lay down directly on the beach. Under the natural sun, he lay on the sand and accepted the baptism of nature. He didn't know how long he had been fantasizing about this moment.

Wen Yan and Jiang Lin stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the scene below. Shen Su was particularly prominent because he was so white and shiny.

"Will I really not get sunburned like this?" Jiang Lin shuddered when he thought of the pain after being sunburned.

Wen Yan was a little unhappy that she was concerned about Shen Xu: "He probably hasn't seen the sun for too long. By the way, what's the reason for Xie Anran?"

Hearing Xie Anran's name, Jiang Lin's expression became serious: "She said that she suddenly had the ability to foresee the future." Xie Anran was the only person away from the sea today. She wished to be as far away from the sea as possible. This behavior did look very strange.

"What did she see?" Wen Yan asked.

"She saw the sea turn dark and lifeless," Jiang Lin said, summarizing Xie Anran's words. Strange things kept happening, and it wasn't surprising that the sea would change in the future.

The sea breeze blew Jiang Lin's hair. Today was a rare day of leisure.

Xie Anran, on the other side, did not leave the hospital. This was the highest point, and from the corner, there was no view of the sea. Moreover, the smell of disinfectant effectively covered up the fishy smell of the sea.

Xie Anran lay in the chair, drowsy.

She didn't know when she fell into a dream. Someone kept patting her shoulders. Xie Anran struggled to open her heavy eyelids: "Ahhhhhhhhh!"

The scene before her made her scream again. The originally tidy hospital was now filled with wriggling moss creatures lying on the unconscious people on the ground.

Sucked everyone into a thin mummy.

"Xie Anran, wake up!"

As soon as Jiang Lin entered the hospital, he saw Xie Anran staring ahead with her eyes open, her face filled with fear. However, her eyes were unfocused, and she didn't look awake.

Jiang Lin's voice was like a powerful tranquilizer. Xie Anran felt as if she had grasped a lifeline. Her eyes slowly focused until she saw the familiar face in front of her.

"What did you see?" Jiang Lin handed her a glass of warm water.

Xie Anran looked at the surroundings and saw that it was a private ward in the hospital.

"I saw the moss you brought back from City B. It sucked everyone's blood dry and crawled all over the rooms in the hospital." Xie Anran took a sip of water and said slowly.

Tang Xiaoyan: "Her mental fluctuations are normal. She doesn't seem to be lying, nor does she seem to be suffering from a mental illness."

After saying that, Tang Xiaoyan looked at Jiang Lin without saying anything. Xie Anran's situation was too weird.

Before Jiang Lin could say anything, there was a slight sound of glass breaking outside. A superpowered person's hearing was very good. Even though it was very slight, Jiang Lin immediately sensed it.

She rushed out and opened the freezer door, and the test tubes that had been placed neatly had fallen to the ground at some point.

The green moss inside lay on the ground, looking like a completely dead mass.

But after Xie Anran's reaction, Jiang Lin didn't dare to underestimate this piece of moss.

She took a step back warily.

At this time, Shen Xu ran in from outside: "Song Si, Song Si said she wants to come up too, I want to go to City B to pick her up."

Shen Xu ran in and before he could stand firm, the moss on the ground flew quickly towards his face.

The accident happened when no one expected it.
