Chapter 401 Snake Rain

After completing some necessary work, they continued on their way to the new base.

The location of the new base was carefully selected based on the post-apocalyptic situation, avoiding tsunamis, earthquakes and low-lying areas.

Of course, the terrain cannot be too high either, as mountains are the high-incidence areas where mutant creatures gather. So when choosing a location, it took a long time to decide to settle in City A.

If you want to build a base that can accommodate hundreds of thousands or even millions of people, it is naturally impossible to build it in more than a year. However, if you plan the original city——

Then build the individual locations they need separately, which can solve many problems.

So, instead of saying that there has been construction there, it would be better to say that they have been building the base's security walls and some internal planning.

Huang Jinghe's parents were directly assigned to City A when City A was first chosen as the location for the new base. However, the matter of the new base was kept confidential, so they did not even mention it to their own son Huang Jinghe. They were worried that if the news got out, it would not be a big deal if the new base was exposed, but it would cause panic, which would be really bad.

…

City A is about 7 days away from the Beijing base by normal driving. They had already spent three days on the road, and another four days would have been enough to reach the base. However, the earthquake came suddenly, catching everyone off guard. It took 2 days just to treat the injured, not to mention the subsequent count of people and supplies, so 7 days had passed and they were still on the way to migrate.

The migration journey is difficult to endure, but if it is just too hot, it would not be so bad. The terrible thing is to encounter an accident on the road.

Then the accident happened.

The very next day after they set off, it suddenly started to rain.

Everyone in the base moved to live in the underground city because of the acid rain. In addition, the buildings along the way were corroded by acid rain so badly that when they saw the rain, they subconsciously associated it with acid rain.

Just when everyone was waiting for death to come, raindrops fell on their faces, but they didn't feel any pain at all.

This situation made everyone stunned, but then they were ecstatic. "It's just ordinary rain, just ordinary rain. I thought it was acid rain. I was going to die here, but it's not."

"That's really great."

"Luckily it's just ordinary rain, but I hope it's okay if it gets on you."

Although rain is not corrosive, who knows if there are any other microorganisms in the rain? Upon hearing this, the people who had just stretched their hands outside to play in the water suddenly pulled their hands back.

After all, it’s hard to say.

Initially, only tiny raindrops were falling, but gradually they became heavier.

But after a burst of light rain, a noisy sound came from afar. This sound was too familiar. When Lan Jin and the other three went out to look for supplies and encountered hail, the sound was just as loud.

Everyone looked back at the sound and saw a dark cloud floating towards them.

The cloud was so large that there was no room for them to escape.

Everyone at the base suddenly became nervous, and Captain Zhang and others even used loudspeakers to urge everyone to get on the bus quickly.

However, in this situation, it is useless to get in the car. The car does have a roof, but it is just a piece of oilcloth. It can block the sun and light rain, but in its current state, it is impossible for it to withstand both ice drops and rain.

In addition, the clouds moved so fast that few people had even gotten on the bus before the raindrops fell on them.

But fortunately, it was just rain. Even though everyone was soaked, no one complained. After all, it was the end of the world, and being alive was good enough. Getting wet in the rain was nothing.

Just when everyone was rejoicing that the rain was about to end, another burst of noise drifted towards them from far away.

However, this rain cloud is slightly different from the previous one. The previous rain cloud was dark, but this one——

There are no clouds, only a patch of rain, and it is red.

Just as everyone was wondering, Captain Zhang's telescope actually saw the true face of the rain. "Fuck, this isn't rain at all. It must have been picked up by a tornado somewhere. Those red things in here are all mutant snakes."

That is the snake with a crystal of fire-type energy on its head. The meat of this snake is edible and is a good meal.

But a small number of snakes is nothing, but if so many snakes appear together, even Lan Jin can't stand it.

Seeing everyone hiding behind Lan Jin, Lan Jin said speechlessly: "If these snakes crawled towards me, I could still deal with them, but they fell down, so even I can't deal with them."

Seeing that Snake Rain was still some distance away from them, Captain Zhang immediately shouted, "Get back to the car, everyone, hurry back to the car."

However, the crowd refused to listen to Captain Zhang. Helplessly, Lan Jin came up with a solution, "How many people have plant-based abilities?"

Several people with plant-based abilities immediately came to Lan Jin and replied, "We are."

"Yeah, me too."

"Release the vines to create a barrier above everyone's heads. Keep them spinning. If a snake lands on them, it will be bounced off."

After Lan Jin gave a brief description, everyone understood her request. In fact, it was the same principle as a fan. The vines were made into the shape of fan blades, and then they were rotated continuously to shake off the group of mutant snakes.

It doesn't matter if they can't shake them off because they don't have enough strength to do so. At least the snakes didn't fall on them completely.

At the same time, Lan Jin also used the Ning Zi Ring Lightning Whip and started spinning above his head.

In fact, if you really want to isolate these mutant snakes, there is a simpler way. Ling Jiang can directly use his superpowers to create an ice fortress. However, there are too many people in the base. Ling Jiang's superpowers are very strong, but not strong enough to create an ice fortress for so many people. Therefore, the most simple and effective thing is the vines in the hands of people with plant superpowers.

Once they heard there was a solution, the residents of the base were no longer as nervous as before. After the vines with plant-based abilities began to 'work', everyone began to find a safe place to hide.

But in the final analysis, Lan Jin still has the most people on her side. When it comes to superpowers, Lan Jin is the strongest. Whenever there is danger, everyone will subconsciously go to her.
