Chapter 393 You are forcing them to die in disguise.

Every day I see people posting negative messages on the base forum that are hard to delete.

This large-scale fainting incident made the people very scared.

But there are also many smart people who, although the official has not directly stated it, still guessed that the illness might be caused by the water quality.

More and more people would rather starve to death at home than go into the water to salvage supplies.

The base's salvage of supplies was once at a standstill.

Salvage ships that were usually fully staffed are often half empty these days.

Ji He saw it all, but he had no better solution.

Although she seems to have a lot of space supplies, they are all for her personally. With millions of people in the base, even if she takes them out, they may be consumed in less than a day.

She couldn't even hang on the fur of the water bear.

The system judged that thing to be a good one and priced it very high. Those talented people were extremely poor, and even if Ji He marked the original price, they might not be able to afford it.

This tense atmosphere lasted only a few days and was soon broken.

One day, a stranger posted a video on the forum.

The man in the video was unconscious and covered with black spots. He was so skinny that he looked like a mummy.

But the black spots on the body were swollen like balls, looking like black footballs growing on the mummy.

It was still squirming, as if it were alive.

It makes people feel creepy when they see it.

The next second, the football exploded, and countless red bugs crawled out, spreading down the bed.

The people in the video gasped and the screen shook wildly.

It can be seen that the person recording the video is running out of the ward quickly.

At the end of the video, the patient who had been unconscious on the hospital bed and had not opened his eyes finally woke up. His wails of pain could be heard clearly even if one ran far away from the ward.

Just listening to it makes your scalp tingle and your heart beat wildly.

Good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels far and wide.

Only a small number of people in the base have cell phones, but the news spread throughout the base in a very short time.

Many people who had been soaking in the water and had black spots on their bodies but had not fainted had gone completely crazy.

They rushed out and intended to cause damage in the base.

It turns out that everyone is equally poor.

There is no grabbing at all.

In the end, they had no choice but to rob the bean cake shop.

I originally wanted to rob a supermarket.

It turned out that there was only one supermarket in the base, which was in Area B. When they got there, all the shelves in the supermarket were empty.

All that was left were some flower pots that were difficult to move and a salesperson with a lame leg.

What the hell are you robbing for!

Finally, when they were holding the bean cakes and preparing to continue attacking the office building, a group of soldiers with guns rushed out and captured them.

Even though guns are becoming less and less effective against gifted people, they are still very intimidating to ordinary people.

After sacrificing more than 10 lives, these people finally calmed down.

The notice was quickly issued through the base.

At the beginning, I was happy to admit the cause of the disease. It was indeed as everyone had guessed. There were bugs in the water, but they were not ingested as everyone thought, but bitten.

At the same time, the latest notice from the base was published at the bottom of the article.

It means that as long as you wear long-sleeved clothes, don't go into the water and are not bitten by insects, you won't get sick. There is pollution in the water, but it is not the cause of the outbreak of this insect disease.

Moreover, this non-toxic insect contains a large amount of protein, which can replenish energy. It is edible, has high nutritional value, and is beneficial to humans.

The base will rent kayaks at the price of 5 points per day, and everyone can go to salvage bugs and exchange them for points at the base.

At the same time, he posted photos of the insects, saying that there are a lot of these insects in the water, and earning points is as easy as picking up money for free.

At the end of the post, good news was also released, saying that in order to celebrate the arrival of the New Year's Day holiday, the base will sell vegetable soup at the bean cake sales counter tomorrow afternoon at the price of 2 points per bowl. In addition, special foods such as spicy rotten worms and white water fish will also be launched, both at 2 points per serving.

As soon as this notice was sent out, many people who were on the brink of collapse came back to life.

The people at the bottom of society are so easy to please.

As long as there is a little hope, life can go on.

They glanced over the above introduction about the disease and only paid attention to the word "bite".

I felt relieved.

What I’m afraid of is not the bugs, but the fear of the unknown.

Now that they know the cause of the disease, many people are not so frightened anymore.

The focus is on the content that follows.

5 points for kayaking a day???

Is this true? This is too cheap! It’s much lower than before!

This price is equivalent to giving it away for free.

Many people immediately calculated in their minds that if they could catch 200 kilograms of insects every day, they would still be able to make a profit.

Of course, the most exciting thing is the vegetable soup and live fish below.

The words "vegetables" and "fish" brightly stimulate people's eyes.

What does 2 points mean?

Each bean cake is worth 1 point, and two points is almost like giving it away for free.

How could they not be excited?

There are many people who have not eaten vegetables for as long as the natural disaster has lasted.

At this moment, just seeing the word "vegetable soup" makes my mouth water.

It's simply unbearable!

For a moment, no one discussed the rotten worms, everyone was discussing tomorrow's 2-point vegetable soup and fish.

The anxious atmosphere in the entire base was swept away.

There is a hint of relief.

The top management also breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Sure enough, the experts' words are still useful.

When you are in a bad mood, there is nothing that cannot be solved with a meal. If one meal doesn’t work, then two meals will do.

Only then did he take out a meal, and the people below immediately stopped rioting.

Not only did they not riot, but everyone also found new ways to get rich.

The family had a lively discussion.

The top management strikes while the iron is hot.

The next day, when everyone was extremely happy, another notice was released.

This is a notification about the presence of fish and other creatures in the water.

Inform them that there are many aquatic animals underwater outside the base, some of which are edible. Everyone can catch them and bring them to the base for testing. As long as they are not poisonous, living conditions will be greatly improved in the future.

They also considerately posted the location where the fish was found at the bottom of the notice.

Now no one cared about the rot worms anymore.

Everyone wanted to catch some fish.

God knows how long it has been since they last had meat!

The last time I ate meat seemed like it was a lifetime ago.

If you catch fish at home, can't you eat as much as you want?

Base office building.

A gray-haired old man was roaring angrily.

"You are kidding! You knew that the fish was contaminated, but you still let them fish it out?! You are forcing them to die in disguise!"
