Chapter 317: Disasters in the Future
"What's so good about immortality? A few decades of life is enough to live a wonderful life." Jin Mohan couldn't understand Wang Zhengzhu's thoughts.
This person turned the world upside down just to achieve an absolutely impossible goal, and he himself became a rat crossing the street that everyone wanted to kill, having to hide from the outside world and living in fear all the time.
The zombie virus keeps evolving, and I’m afraid even Wang Zhengzhu himself can’t control it.
If one day, all human beings in the world turned into zombies that could not communicate, what would be the meaning of living even if he himself could become immortal?
Jin Mohan hooked Jiang Zixuan's chin and said teasingly, "But, with you by my side, I would like to live longer."
"It doesn't have to be too long," Jiang Zixuan said seriously, "A few decades is enough. If you watch it for too long, you might get tired of it."
"You'll get tired of me?"
"Not yet, but maybe in a hundred or two hundred years, I'll get tired of looking at your face every day, no matter how handsome you are, right?"
Jin Mohan's smile froze.
Very good, his wife has tactfully expressed her boredom. It seems that it is time for him to change his image and make his wife feel fresh as soon as possible to avoid being kicked out.
Just as Jin Mohan was about to take action, the cell phone in his bag suddenly rang.
The base signal tower is completely complete, and mobile phone calls within the base are unimpeded.
"Jingchen?"
"Boss, I have good news and bad news for you..."
"Try talking nonsense again?"
Jingchen said quickly, "There are sea beasts attacking the base, Boss, do you want to come to the scene for guidance?"
"What do you eat?" Jin Mohan asked dissatisfiedly.
"I can handle it. I was just asking if you're interested in watching the live version. After all, this is the first time the sea beast has attacked, and it's worth commemorating."
Although he said so, there was a strong resentment in Jingchen's tone.
He didn't need to guess to know that the boss would definitely stay with his wife after get off work.
Unlike him, he turned down the dinner prepared by Jiang Liang because he had to command the armed forces to fight.
Ignoring Jingchen's resentment, Jin Mohan hung up the phone and took Jiang Zixuan to the scene.
As Jingchen said, this is the first attack of the sea beast, so we need to pay attention.
When the two arrived at the base, the psychics were already fighting.
Because the stronghold had been prepared in advance and the underwater submarines could transmit detection images, the armed forces could grasp all the movements of the sea beasts, making it easy to deal with them.
In the command room of the stronghold, Jin Mohan stood in front of the observation screen, watching the sea beasts emerging continuously in the shallow sea.
There are defense towers along the sea area, and the coastal front is extended, making it impossible for sea beasts to attack.
Many psychics were fighting on the defense tower, and Jiang Zixuan also went to test her dual abilities.
Especially the newly acquired lightning system, which uses water to conduct electricity and can cause great damage to sea beasts.
Jingchen stood behind Jin Mohan, directing each team to take turns in battle while answering Jin Mohan's questions.
Seeing someone injured in the battle and being sent to the medical station, Jin Mohan frowned and asked, "Will it be infected if you are injured by a sea beast?"
"There are currently no cases of people with special abilities being infected, but it's uncertain for ordinary people. But once the virus in the seawater evolves, I don't know if there will be new changes. I think it's necessary to take precautions at all times and avoid contact with body fluids to the greatest extent possible."
Jing Chen finished speaking in one breath, and then pulled out the research report sent by the scientists, "According to the physical dissection and data analysis of the infected sea beasts, there are no corpse crystals in the sea beasts, which may be the main reason why they have no infection ability."
"Not a single piece?"
Jing Chen said, "Yes, we recently used submarines to locate the location of mutant sea beasts and captured a total of 362 of them. After dissecting them all, we did not find a single corpse crystal."
Scientists explained that the current mutated sea beasts are still very low-level, and the zombie virus content in their body fluids is very low, not enough to infect people with special abilities.
However, the zombie virus is evolving all the time, and one day, it may become like high-level zombies, infecting even those with special abilities.
On the screen, countless sea beasts emerged from the tide and rushed towards the stronghold one after another, but were stopped by armed forces.
The reason why other seaside bases were destroyed was because their military strength was too low and there were too many mutated sea beasts.
The mutated sea beasts swarmed in droves, giving humans no chance to breathe.
If there are not enough replacement troops, even the strongest people will become exhausted and unable to cope.
The battle lasted for several hours, until dawn, when the armed forces completely cleared out the attacking sea monsters and quickly cleaned up the blood on the shore to avoid attracting more sea monsters.
Jingchen mobilized the submarine to detect the nearby waters and confirmed that there were no sea beasts coming for the time being.
Jiang Zixuan also came back from outside. She was covered in blood and had several pieces of sea cucumber hanging on her shoulders.
"The armed forces captured four large octopuses and two small hairtails alive. They have been put into special cages and sent to the research institute."
Jiang Zixuan said as she waved away the sea intestines on her shoulders, "During the battle, I didn't find any sea beasts with special powers. Is this good news?"
Jingchen snapped his fingers, "This is the good news I wanted to tell the boss."
Looking at his wife and confidants, Jin Mohan felt mixed emotions.
Is this really good news?
Starting from today, sea beasts will continue to attack the stronghold, and Leia Base will have to devote a considerable amount of energy to dealing with these tireless and terrifying creatures.
Moreover, when the zombie virus in the sea water evolves to a certain extent, the sea beasts will also become stronger, and monsters like high-level zombies may appear.
The future of mankind is truly filled with disasters.
After the sea area was infected, Jiang Zixuan paid more attention to her dozen or so large seafood breeding ponds.
The seafood in these pools is the only source of seafood for the base. If they cannot continue to reproduce, future generations may never be able to taste seafood again.
Not only was she busy, Jingchen, Meiyu, Lengmo and others were also busy every day. In order to keep the base running normally, they didn't even have the chance to stop and enjoy the scenery.
One night, Jiang Zixuan was resting in the space. She heard the sound of raindrops falling in a half-asleep state.
For people living in the end times, rain seems like a distant thing from the previous life.
She thought she was dreaming, so she turned over and continued to sleep.
It was not until the morning when she got up and opened the window that she saw a thin curtain of rain covering the entire space with a layer of light gray, and the grass leaves in the yard were covered with crystal clear dewdrops.
"It's raining?" She was stunned for a moment, then reached out to catch the raindrops falling from the sky.
The cold raindrops fell on her palms, making her feel as if she was in another world.
It hasn't rained for more than half a year. Although it has little impact on the space, as a human being, she cannot adapt to a world without rain.
She quickly washed up, left the space and returned home.
Only after she stepped out of the space did she hear the entire base erupting in earth-shaking cheers, as if the end of the world had suddenly ended and all the zombies had disappeared. The inspiring roars resounded through the sky.
The rain outside the space was even heavier, the sky and the earth were covered in a gray haze, and the buildings could not be seen more than a dozen meters away.
Many people stood in the rain, cheering towards the sky, catching the rain on the ground and splashing it at people nearby, and playing and laughing with each other.
