May 20, 2031 AD.
After a thousand-mile journey, the large army from the Liancheng base finally appeared in the west, a hundred miles away from the snow-capped peaks.
It lasted one month and twenty days.
There were more than 40,000 people when we set out, and there were several thousand more when we arrived at our destination.
Some people died and some went missing along the way, while survivors from other places joined the migration.
As the first survivors and soldiers joined in the development of the West, tall buildings sprang up one after another and the area quickly became prosperous.
Some large and small bases in the northwest that are closer to here were the first to choose to join, followed by the surviving population of the small base in Jiangbei being sent to the west by helicopter. Starting in the second half of the year, helicopters began to transport the elderly and children here.
On the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2031 AD, the Western Headquarters was officially established here.
At the beginning of the year 2032, the capital officially decided to move its capital to the west...
…
In June 2032, on the summit of Mount Everest, Lin Qingqing, who was already at the sixth level, dressed as a bear, still felt as cold as a dog.
Even Dan Leng's father, who was always as steady as a rock, had to carry an oxygen device and wear an oxygen mask.
On the other hand, the Corpse King Qu Guanqing not only moved more slowly, but he also didn't seem to be breathing.
Qu Guanqing noticed Lin Qingqing's gaze and paused. "Qingqing, go back to the space first. Lao Dan and I are here. I'll call you when it's done."
This is the summit at an altitude of 8848.86 meters. It's not only cold, but also lacks oxygen. Ordinary climbers struggle to get up there, take a photo, and then go back down.
But now they need to work here for several hours.
Upon hearing this, Shan Leng looked up and nodded at Lin Qingqing. He was wearing a mask, so it was inconvenient for him to speak and he could only signal with his eyes.
Lin Qingqing shook her head slightly. She was not so squeamish at all. She was just a little envious of the creatures on the planet that were not afraid of the cold.
Seeing that Lin Qingqing refused to return to the space, Qu Guanqing could only speed up his hands.
At this time, they were using simple instruments to take samples of ice pillars under the ice. Various activity traces and sea beast DNA test data showed that sea beasts were likely prehistoric creatures under the ice.
Dan Leng and Qu Guanqing were collecting icicles, and Lin Qingqing was not idle either. The dry season was about to begin, and the temperature outside was rising, by as much as ten degrees a day.
The snow has melted.
Now, except for the lake bottom where Cai Donghu was, the rest of her space was empty and filled with ice and snow.
The melting of the snow-capped mountains was inevitable, but there were several years of drought in between. To get through this difficult time, she became nature's porter.
Take the ice and snow back to the base, melt it into water and store it in a lake, which can be used for farming in the future.
Before nightfall, Qu Guanqing asked Shan Leng, whose fingers were trembling, "Old Shan, we still have to drill down about 50 meters. Do you want to take a break first?"
"No need." Shan Leng took a deep breath and lifted his mask. "Speed up!"
As he spoke, his body flashed. Qu Guanqing felt a flash before his eyes, and Dan Leng appeared in his field of vision.
Time was running out, and Qu Guanqing had no time to envy this special ability. He drilled down twice as fast as before.
Lin Qingqing glanced at the darkening night, pulled a strand of hair to feel the wind speed, and immediately gave up shoveling snow.
She quickly began to pack up the three people's equipment, took off her mask and shouted to the two guys who were driving at full speed, "The blizzard is coming soon, you two should be ready to stop at any time."
"Just the last little bit." Qu Guanqing also tried his best, and his fangs showed up again, which made Shan Leng feel uncomfortable.
Lin Qingqing wanted to help, but she also knew that this was a delicate job that required strong mental control. If she was not careful, all her efforts would be wasted.
Seeing that Shan Leng's father was not wearing an oxygen mask and was using the clone technique, Lin Qingqing pinched a flower crystal in her hand and stuffed the whole flower directly into Shan Leng's mouth.
After Dan Leng ate the flower crystal, his pale face became visibly rosy and shiny.
Qu Guanqing was envious when he saw this scene. He knew in his heart that it was a treasure that Lin Qingqing treasured, so he didn't dare to ask for more.
He felt a little disappointed inside, but he pretended not to see it and continued to work hard with his head down.
But at this moment, the fragrance approached him, as if it was right at the tip of his nose.
"Open your mouth!" Lin Qingqing was getting impatient. "It's already this late, and you're still in a daze."
"Pretentious!" Shan Leng snorted.
"Oh!" Qu Guanqing smiled foolishly, opened his mouth and swallowed the flower crystal.
The wonderful energy seemed to purify the body, and the previous fatigue was swept away. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he vaguely felt that he had advanced.
But this is not important. What is important is that Qingqing actually fed him such a precious thing herself!
Qu Guanqing was immediately overjoyed, with happiness and joy all over his face.
Shan Leng resisted the urge to hit him with a hammer, thinking that if this idiot hadn't been unable to stop drilling, he would have rolled on the ground.
That’s all you can achieve!
Lin Qingqing waved her hand and set up several space barriers to block some of the wind and snow for the two of them.
She stood alert, ready to take both of them back to the flash space immediately if anything went wrong.
The current blizzard wasn't just pure snow; it might also contain strange creatures. Even with their current abilities, they couldn't afford to underestimate it.
The waiting time was long and difficult. Finally, just before the snowstorm came, after three hours, Dan Leng and Qu Guanqing reached the ice layer below a thousand meters.
"Okay, let's retreat!" Shan Leng shouted, pulling out an ice pillar thousands of meters long from underground. Lin Qingqing waved her hand, and the extremely cold, million-year-old ice body was forcibly cut into several sections and flew towards her space.
After a few breaths, Lin Qingqing's whole body was covered with cold air, and even her eyelashes were frozen into frost.
When the space is overloaded, it will be reflected on her. This is not the first time that Dan Leng and Qu Guanqing have seen Lin Qingqing like this.
The two felt heartbroken, but their space was unable to accommodate such extremely low-temperature ice, so they could only think about returning to the laboratory as soon as possible to unload it.
The three of them didn't waste any time. After Dan Leng merged his two selves into one, they simultaneously spread their wings and leaped down the mountain, using their descending speed to glide.
As dawn approached, the three of them appeared outside the base, exhausted.
The guards working here were already familiar with these big guys and let them pass immediately.
There are already survivors in the base who have woken up early to work the early morning shift.
The base is located in a deserted place.
The right to use the surrounding land is leased to survivors on a contract basis. The base provides seeds, farm tools and some fertilizers, and 30% of the agricultural products are handed over as taxes after the crops mature.
Regardless of gender, anyone over ten years old must perform military service and menial duties. Elderly people are no exception. Unless they are bedridden and unable to move, everyone must do what they can. The base doesn't want idlers.
Except for the first group who have permanent residency, all others who join the base only have temporary residency. They need to accumulate enough contribution points to renew their residency.
Permanent residents enjoy various preferential policies, which make newcomers envious.
The three of them walked across the simple asphalt street and went to the laboratory first.
"Hurry!" Dean Lin, who was guarding the door of the laboratory, saw Lin Qingqing, who was shivering all over. His heart suddenly tightened and he shouted loudly: "Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Lin Qingqing smiled at him and ran towards the unloading area.
She removed the ice pillars from the space, and several fully armed researchers surrounded her. "Are you really taking samples from a thousand meters below the ice?"
The person who spoke was immediately covered by his colleagues' mouth. What nonsense are you talking about? How could Chief Lin lie?
"I've lit a brazier in my office. Go and warm yourself up first." Dean Lin, who came over later, stuffed a hot water bottle into Lin Qingqing's hand.
"I'm fine. You go ahead and do your thing. We'll talk later." Lin Qingqing took the hot water bottle and held it in her arms, feeling the warmth in her hands and heart.
She did not tell Dean Lin that she was his daughter, and the two of them remained friends regardless of age.
There has been no news about Baby Lin and the little hamster, as if they had disappeared in this space and time.
She had a vague guess in her mind about what the other her had done.
But I still believe in myself. That 'she' will not harm myself or Lin Baobao.
It is very likely that Baby Lin was sent to a peaceful time and space.
Just like when she found Lao Hu last year, she knocked him out and sent him to the late 1960s.
Lin Qingqing wanted to laugh when she thought that when Old Hu woke up, he might think he had traveled through time.
She also gave him a golden finger and fed him a few petal spaces, but she didn't know what shape of space he could grow...
After leaving the laboratory, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. It is best to leave professional matters to professionals for research.
The Earth has been around for five billion years, and humans have only been around for three million years. Whether other civilizations have existed during this period has always been a topic of discussion among scientists.
Many people believe that our current civilization is the fifth generation of civilization. Before us, there were at least four generations of prehistoric intelligent creatures.
Now they are wondering whether the sea monster is one of the prehistoric civilizations, or the terminator of the fourth generation of civilization, and is just in a deep sleep.
They took ice from deep inside Mount Everest in the hope of finding some valuable evidence inside.
Last time we sampled the ice, we were 800 meters below the surface, and we've already got some clues. This time, sampling at a depth of 1,000 meters should yield more accurate data. (This is pure nonsense, don't laugh...)
"You guys go back and rest first. I have to go to the ancient town." Qu Guanqing was worried about his new subordinates. They had been walking for two days, and he was afraid that the new corpse kings would get out of control.
Lin Qingqing also missed Qiao Ruoran a little. She glanced at Shan Leng with an inquiring look and asked weakly, "Can I go with you?"
After learning that Qu Guanqing was a zombie, Qiao Mingyang finally agreed to Qiao Ruoran's method of resurrection.
Because there is no other way.
But a sister like that is not a pure sister anymore, and Qiao Mingyang became even more withdrawn.
He wandered around the periphery all day long, and only appeared occasionally without saying a word. He would only give the accumulated crystal cores to Lin Qingqing. If Lin Qingqing was not there, he would not communicate with others.
Lin Qingqing's other teammates were also resurrected through Qu Guanqing.
Because they were afraid that they would harm the humans in the base, Qu Guanqing's kind lived in an ancient town fifty kilometers away.
They are like newborns and have to learn everything from scratch.
So far, all the zombies and zombie animals within a hundred miles of the base have been cleared out.
Only the ancient town remains to house critically ill patients and new humans.
That is Qu Guanqing's territory.
"Go early and come back early, unless you are not afraid of Mr. Cai's nagging..." Shan Leng frowned.
"Oh, I'll go see Ranran and be back soon." Lin Qingqing nodded obediently.
Shan Leng glanced at Qu Guanqing with a warning look, don't think he doesn't know the old guy's little thoughts.
They just wanted to send him and Qingqing away to be alone, without considering that his baby was so well-behaved. As long as they didn't let go, this old guy would have no chance of taking their little cabbage away.
Qu Guanqing was thick-skinned and ignored Shan Leng's disgusted look. He took out a bicycle from the space and happily invited Lin Qingqing: "Qingqing, I'll take you for a ride!"
Lin Qingqing rolled her eyes at him, picked up a skateboard, stepped on it with her right foot, tapped the ground with her left foot, and whoosh, she disappeared.
Only Qu Guanqing was left standing there, suspected dead. Isn't it said that riding a bicycle with your girlfriend to enjoy the breeze is the most romantic thing?
Outside the base, there are fields. Golden ears of wheat are swaying in the wind, and people are busy working in the potato and corn fields.
Bunker-like shelters and lookout towers were set up every three miles to prevent mutated flying insects from launching aerial attacks.
They had to store enough food before the drought came.
Human survival is still extremely difficult, but everything is moving in a positive direction.
Arriving at the center of the field area, Lin Qingqing went to the central lake and unloaded all the ice and snow in the space.
The surrounding temperature dropped suddenly.
The soldiers guarding here were actually very puzzled. Although it hadn't rained for half a month, the snow water in this artificial lake was piling up more and more.
They can’t even go fishing after get off work.
"Build the dam a little higher, and it's almost time to start preparing the sunshade net. Build supports on the lakeside and cover the lake surface to prevent the snow water from running away." Lin Qingqing saw the expressions of the soldiers, but she couldn't explain to them.
Fortunately, Lao Tan is here, and Lin Qingqing is still very confident in him.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Old Tan still looked silly, and even turned a blind eye to the strange things others said.
He was one of the first to enter the western base, and many of the early buildings were his work.
When the commander of the Beijing base, Wu, learned that he belonged to an independent regiment of a certain military region in the Yanjiao base, had special abilities, and had made great contributions, he made an exception and appointed him as the commander of the first division of the western base with the rank of major general.
However, when Base Captain Wu arrived at the Western Base, he discovered that this man actually obeyed Lin Qingqing's orders.
Director Wu Ji was unwilling to give up, and met with Lao Tan many times to try to win him over, but he found that he was talking to a deaf ear.
He could only be thankful that Lin Qingqing and her group of big men had no desire to fight for power, but were just a little overbearing.
For example, he couldn't bear the loss of face and once wanted to give the inhibitor formula to several friendly countries.
Before he could take any action, Lin Qingqing took him to the sky and flew around.
"Do you agree to give it to me ten years later?" He still remembers Lin Qingqing's cold and ruthless face.
Of course he agreed, otherwise he would be torn to pieces!
"How many people are there in our country now? How many people have turned into zombies? Have you ever counted them?"
"There are still about 10 to 20 million alive, right?" Of course he had calculated. According to preliminary statistics, at least 1.3 billion people have turned into zombies. If there are still 20 million survivors, it would be a big deal.
"Well, how are you going to feed them, and you're going to teach them how to use knives and guns?"
"We have an army. The weapons modified by Mr. Ji Yu can already successfully shoot and kill third-level zombies. It's just a matter of time to kill all the zombies." Wu Yihao said halfway and felt depressed again. Ji Yu was also this woman's man.
"Your army...how long has it been since you were able to recruit new soldiers?" Lin Qingqing sighed. This base commander had never led troops into battle before the end of the world!
"This, we can't replenish in our current situation!" Wu Yihao also thought that it would be better to add some people with special abilities to strengthen the combat effectiveness.
But soldiers have to face zombies at any time and be restrained. The capable psychics disdain the military rations, and the incompetent ones don't want to be fed in vain.
"So, does it take time for us to train a new generation of soldiers and restore our national combat effectiveness?" Lin Qingqing asked angrily, "We can only take a breath now, and we don't even have the ability to protect ourselves. Why should you donate the inhibitors I worked so hard to obtain to other countries?"
Wu Yihao was silent for a moment: "But we are all human beings... Only by eliminating the zombie virus can the world be purified. If we only eliminate the zombies within our country..."
"You're thinking too much. Let your people survive first!"
Clear out zombies?
That was a decades-long thing.
Why don't they take advantage of the fact that they are one step ahead of others and vigorously develop their national strength, but instead donate inhibitors to other countries first?
No, she's not that great!
Lin Qingqing let out a cruel smile. The future world would be more cruel than any other era, and the law of the jungle would be fully revealed! Those in power must have a heart of steel to lead their race to last longer.
