Chapter 91 The Next Natural Disaster is Extremely Hot

The 365th day of the end of the world, July 1st.

During this period, Qiao Qiao and Qiao Xinghe accumulated 3 ten-drawn combos, and Qiao Huizhou accumulated 4 ten-drawn combos.

Jojo gets 2 R-rated cards.

【Air conditioning card＊1】

【Solar Shield＊1】

Qiao Xinghe obtained 1 R-rated card.

【Backpack Expansion Card＊1】

The three people's backpack slots had all been unlocked long ago, so this card was put on the trading mall in exchange for 200 contribution points.

Qiao Huizhou got 5 R-rated cards.

【Backpack Expansion Card】＊2

【Solar Shield】＊1

【Air conditioning card】＊1

【Solar Electric Heater】＊1

This month's copy of the card will choose the Small Shield.

I also drew 6 resource-type R-level cards from the blind box.

【Petroleum Card (100 units)】＊2

【Electricity card (100 units)】＊1

【Water card (100 units)】＊2

[Coal Card (100 units)] *1

In addition, Qiao Qiao would put some heat-insulating items on the trading mall every day, sometimes ice cubes, sometimes anti-summer medicine, sometimes cooling patches and so on.

Most people are very grateful, only a few greedy people often engage in moral blackmail.

"It's Qiao Qiao again, Boss. Why do you need our cards when you have so many supplies?"

"Yeah, big guy. We only have one chance to draw cards every day, and most of what we get is garbage. It's not enough."

“Can’t you give it to me for free?”

In response to this kind of message, Qiao Qiao simply responded with a middle finger emoji and blocked it all.

She takes Xiao Qiao and Qiao Man into the shadow space for training every day. Now the small whirlwind formed by the wind ability can last for an hour.

Qiao Man also evolved successfully.

【Evolution Success】

[Mature mutant plant: blood-thirsty parasitic vine]

[Bloodthirsty Parasitic Vine: A special creature evolved from the bloodthirsty steel thorn vine absorbing ancient cypress and Venus flytrap. It can parasitize mutant creatures or ordinary creatures at or below the mature stage, and ignores any toxins and parasitic attacks.]

[Skill 1: Life Drain]

[Skill 2: Soul Parasite

Creatures at or below the mature stage will fall into hallucinations after being parasitized. If they cannot wake up for more than 5 minutes, they will become puppets forever. This can only be used once a day, with a maximum of 10 people at a time.

[Passive skill: Relative defense (can absolutely defend against attacks from creatures of the same level or below)]

After evolution, Qiao Man's body grew to ten meters long, ten times its original length, and its vines were as smooth as a mirror.

Qiao Qiao smiled and stroked: "Good boy."

As soon as I returned to the room, there was a knock on the door. When I opened it, Tang Mingli was standing outside, his eyes revealing his unconcealable excitement and anxiety.

"Qiao Qiao, the natural disaster prediction card shows that it can be used today. Are you free now?"

Qiao Qiao nodded: "We are free, let's go now."

Tang Mingli couldn't help but sigh: "Alas, being able to use it means that a new natural disaster will occur in 30 days."

Qiao Qiao: "This is inevitable. All we can do is prepare in advance and try to protect as many people as possible."

Tang Mingli looked at the sunlight outside the window and said, "Yes, this is also the meaning of our existence."

Inside the meeting room.

The director sat in the main seat. The other seats were already full. Only two seats at the front were empty, which were obviously reserved for Qiao Qiao and Tang Mingli.

The big screen behind the director was lit, showing more than a dozen anxious faces. One of them was the director of the Special Management Bureau who he had met in the capital district. There were also some federal chief executives and parliament presidents of various districts who were often seen on TV.

Qiao Qiao narrowed her eyes and said, "It seems that people in other districts also know about the natural disaster prediction card. I wonder what they will do after they get hold of the next natural disaster."

The director nodded and took out the natural disaster prediction card. "Then start using it now."

The blue card flew in the air and shattered with a snap. The fragments dissipated and blood-red words appeared in the air.

[The next round of natural disasters: earthquakes and the series of disasters they trigger]

The president of the parliament suddenly stood up: "What? Earthquake!"

The director's face was gloomy: "This is really troublesome. There is absolutely no defense method."

The Chief Executive forced himself to calm down: "Hurry up and contact the Earthquake Bureau, and ask them to map out the detailed earthquake veins and deduce the disasters of different earthquake levels."

The others had their own thoughts and hurriedly left the meeting room.

Qiao Qiao said hello to Tang Mingli: "Then I'll go back first."

She was busy continuing the meeting with the director: "Okay, contact me anytime if you have anything."

Qiao Qiao returned to the room and lay on the bed thinking, "Is it an earthquake?"

If it was an earthquake, the building would be uninhabitable. She thought for a while and came up with three solutions.

[Solar Shield: After fully charged, it can form a 360-degree protective sphere that can block attacks such as live ammunition and artillery shells. Number of uses: 3]

The first is to use a solar shield, which can withstand artillery attacks and perhaps also withstand earthquakes?

Although I don’t know the exact magnitude of the earthquake, since it is a doomsday disaster, it is probably not low, and the highest level should be above 9...

"Oh." Thinking of this, Qiao Qiao couldn't help but sigh. It is so difficult for human beings to live.

[R-level card small protective shield: After use, it can protect an area of ​​10 miles, is not invaded by mutant creatures, and is less affected by extreme weather (-50℃ to 50℃). It cannot be moved after use. It has a limited period of 100 days. 1/1]

The second is a small protective shield, which may be the only way to protect humans on a large scale. The problem is that the upper limit of protection is unclear.

The third method is to place the RV in the shadow space now, and then find a plain to hide in it. As long as it doesn't fall into the crack, there will be no problem.

Unfortunately, the shadow space has a time limit and you can't stay in it for a long time, otherwise it would be the safest place. But when you encounter danger, you can take emergency shelter.

All plans depend on how the federation acts.

Qiao Qiao yawned and turned over to sleep. Don't think too much, just take it one step at a time, there is still a month left.

On the other hand, no one in the federation was in the mood to sleep, and various departments held meetings overnight.

The Chief Executive and four of his confidants were in a secret meeting room with several maps on the table.

"The Northeast area is uninhabitable. There are hundreds of volcanoes here. If the earthquake intensity is too high, it will easily cause a volcanic eruption. We must evacuate immediately!"

"The southeast area is not suitable. A large-scale earthquake will trigger a tsunami, and that area will be flooded sooner or later."

"The southwest area is not an option either. It is an earthquake zone. Earthquakes happen even when there is nothing going on. I don't know what it will be like in the future."

"Northwest! Although there are occasional earthquakes there, they are all below magnitude 5. It's at a high altitude and there are no volcanoes. It's a safe place."

The secretary couldn't help but stand up and slam the table, "Sir, give the order. Transfer the high-level card drawers and supplies to the northwest area during the last month."

The Chief Executive closed his eyes tightly and said in a hoarse voice: "What about ordinary people?"

The secretary was stunned for a moment, with a guilty look on his face: "There is no other way. Without the permission of the Northwest District..."

The officer made up his mind and suddenly stood up: "Contact the leaders of the Northwest District. I want to make a deal with them."

"yes."

In the following time, Qiao Qiao clearly felt that the atmosphere in the Special Management Bureau had changed, and many people who usually did not want to go out also began to take action.

Various types of planes are constantly flying in the sky, and countless cards are consumed every day.

Not only the bureau, but the federation and parliament also began to publicly purchase heat-resistant cards, and the market price increased several times.

The director and Tang Mingli even came to Qiao Qiao for help, and she took the opportunity to use 6 sunscreen sprays and air conditioning cards to cheat him of 4,000 contribution points.

She has already figured out the transaction prices of contribution points and cards.

Because the temperature is too high now, all work has stopped and everyone can only eat what they have, so the prices of the most precious food cards and heat protection cards have increased several times compared to the auction.

This type of N-level card is worth 5-30 contribution points, while ordinary N-level cards are only worth 1-5 contribution points. The price of more special cards can be higher, but no card is worth more than 100 contribution points.

R-level cards for food and heat protection are worth between 300-500 contribution points, ordinary R-level cards such as resource-type cards are worth between 100-300, and more special ones can reach 1000.

So far, no one has traded SR-level cards.

The director met with her alone and said, "When the extreme heat ends, we will organize people to migrate to the northwest."

Qiao Qiao was shocked: "Migrate? Everyone?"

The director shook his head with difficulty and nodded, then smiled bitterly and said, "The Northwest District can only accept a maximum of 50 million people, but I think it will be about the same in the end."

Qiao Qiao turned on the system.

【World Channel: 3.5 billion】

【National Channel: 720 million】

[Northeast Channel: 62 million]

It is indeed as he said, there are more than 20 days left of the extreme heat, and the population has already decreased by 8 million. By the time it is completely over, it will probably drop below 50 million.

The director asked, "Some people in the park have already moved. SR-level card drawers have the right to move first. Do you want to leave now?"

Qiao Qiao shook her head. Rather than going to a completely unfamiliar environment with her parents, it would be better to follow the bureau. She was too lazy to negotiate with the authorities.

On the 375th day of Doomsday, 20 days before the extreme heat ends, the temperature has reached a maximum of 90°C.

The land was desolate and apart from the mutant creatures, no living creatures could walk around freely, except for those who used R-level cards.

The underground shelters fell into chaos.

Even deep underground, the temperature reached 70 or 80 degrees Celsius, far exceeding the limit of the human body. Even if the federal army was stationed there, it would be of no use.

In the underground shelter of Qiao Qiao's house, the six-member team stationed here were forced into the lounge, which was equipped with three iron bunk beds.

As a reward for their garrison duties, they did not have to worry about food and lodging, and they received six blocks of ice a day, and they only had to maintain order in the shelter.

It was fine at first, but as the temperature rose, the remaining social order was completely lost, and they firmly believed that the team must have supplies.

Ice cubes, heat protection tasks, air conditioning cards... anything is fine, as long as it can cool you down, it is worth it even if you only enjoy it for one second before dying.

The five men desperately held the gate, "Captain, what should we do? They are going crazy, the gate won't hold out for much longer."

The captain frowned, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and he desperately clicked on the system page: "The Federation said that we should solve it ourselves."

One of them fell to the ground, completely desperate: "Has the Federation given up on us?"

Another man cried, "Captain, please think of a way. If they come in, we will be torn to pieces."

Outside, the crowd was pounding on the door of their room frantically, and there was a mixture of shouting and crying.

"Open the door! Do the people inside still have any conscience? This underground shelter is a mess in this horrible weather. Hand over the supplies now!"

"Let us in, you can't hide and enjoy it by yourselves!"

“Save me…”

Feelings of anger and despair spread among the crowd, whose sanity had long been devoured by the heat and fear.

Some people fell during the pushing and shoving but no one noticed, becoming stepping stones amid their crying.

Others fell victim to the heat before they could even take action.

The few people living in the garage realized something was wrong and quickly closed the door, hiding inside and shivering.

"Here! Those who can afford to live in a single room must have good things in their hands, go!"

"No, help!"

"Daughter, where is my daughter?"

At this moment, animality triumphed over humanity, and the refuge became hell.
