Chapter 152 Rain



In addition to being busy delivering supplies to other branch bases, the central base also took the initiative to contact all the small bases that could be contacted, informing them of the specific time for warming and the time to use artificial rainfall.

I hope that three days of heavy rain can give everyone a break.

Before we knew it, it was the first day of the extreme heat wave.

The people from Party J had arranged people early on to wait for the temperature to rise and stabilize before taking measurements and launching artificial rainfall.

They were wearing constant temperature clothing and breathing masks and did not feel any change in the temperature outside. After a while, they took out the thermometer and saw that the temperature had risen to 80 degrees.

What is the concept of eighty degrees?

Let me put it this way, the process of slaughtering a pig and scalding its hair is only 78 degrees.

If unprepared humans were to face this temperature alone, they would probably not survive more than a day.

This temperature can roast a person alive.

After the temperature rose again, there was no trace of zombies at all. Even the zombies that occasionally wandered outside could not be found.

If someone observes carefully, they will find that the ordinary plants that wilt after the high temperature gradually become greener. They are the first to withstand the test of high temperature and complete further changes!

I don’t know how many ordinary plants and even mutant plants died as stepping stones and fertilizers for their evolution.

Although they have completed the mutation, the difficulties they face due to high temperatures and lack of water cannot be underestimated.

Today, the entire city has become a wasteland baked by high temperatures.

Only a few mutated trees are still standing stubbornly on the once bustling street, and their glory is gone.

Both the trees and the grass were burned yellow and withered by the flames, and there was no spirit at all.

Survival of the fittest is so cruel.

Most animals made migration preparations early and found habitats that were better suited to facing disasters.

It is impossible that all animals are lucky enough to find a safe habitat with water supply. What about those who cannot find a habitat?

Could they just stay where they are and get sunburned or burned to death? Would this be a fate the mutant animals would accept?

By noon, we were sure the temperature would stabilize at eighty degrees and would not rise any further.

In an open area, a veteran with experience in fireworks started the artificial rain equipment at a command.

This land, where countless lives died under the scorching sun, finally waited for the fine rain to fall.

The drizzle brought with it a slightly cooler air. The wind and rain were about to come, but people were not as impatient as usual when seeing the rain.

Everyone had a happy look on their face, as if they saw hope.

As time went on, the rain gradually increased and the temperature became lower and lower.

The sun that hung overhead every day was finally covered by clouds. Everyone was cheering, celebrating the arrival of the rain and being happy for their own successful "life extension".

Many people rushed into the rain and opened their mouths to accept the baptism of the heavy rain.

Through this period, the children once again realized the importance of water resources.

Everyone knew that this rain would only last for three days.

No one was in a hurry to get water. They all washed themselves first, washing their hair and taking a bath. It was such a luxury in the extremely hot weather.

After washing his whole body, he took out the pots, pans, and utensils that had been prepared at home and filled them with water.

Zhou Ke looked at the rain, his expression revealing his anxiety and worry.

Li Hu patted his shoulder and comforted him: "We have tried our best."

Ever since the weather was predicted to get warmer, those space-capable people have been traveling everywhere, using up three of their business cards. (One card is good for five bus rides.)

Sending business cards can only send them back to the B&B, and the only way to come back is from the B&B to the starting point. They have to take a car to travel for the rest of the time.

A month of preparation time sounds like a lot, but in reality most of the time is spent on the road.

"I'm just wondering how everyone is going to survive the upcoming heatwave when so many bases are without supplies."

Zhou looked out the car window and for the first time felt that watching the rain falling was so healing, and the sound of the raindrops hitting the ground was so gentle and pleasant.

They all tried their best, but they still had to think a little more.

Did they stop?

No.

While everyone was celebrating the arrival of the heavy rain, the space ability users in all the branch bases of the central base were racing against time to deliver the supplies they bought from the Grape B&B to each base.

There are only about fifty space ability users in each base, and their spaces are filled with the most important food.

There are five space ability users in a team, and each team is escorted by several times the number of attack ability users.

People are treacherous, and even those of the G side who are delivering supplies have to be on guard.

Fortunately, fortunately they dropped the supplies and left at the door. There was no direct conflict with them and no advance agreement on time. Therefore, all the people who went to deliver the supplies were able to return safely.

Not everyone cheered for the heavy rain, and the Jiaoyang Base was an exception.

Zeng Rui, the base commander of Jiaoyang Base, gave an order early on that after the rain, everyone except those with special abilities must participate in digging the underground city.

It’s not that we don’t dig before it rains, but we’re afraid that people will be exhausted, so we give them a break.

Now that the temperature has dropped, everyone has to go digging even if it rains.

"Why can those people with special abilities and leaders just lie in the house and sleep soundly? Aren't the lives of ordinary people like us lives?" Li Jian silently shed tears and complained to his guard friend at the Jiaoyang Base.

It is said that men don't shed tears easily, but that was when it wasn't raining. Now that it is raining, they are still moving the excavated waste soil in the rain.

The cold raindrops hit my face randomly, and I could no longer tell whether it was rain or tears.

The guards at the gate, children over eight years old, pregnant women, and elderly people with gray hair, no matter who they are, have to move, otherwise they will face the wrath of the base commander.

It’s not that no one resisted. Young and passionate people have resisted a long time ago.

In return, his head was chopped off and hung high in the middle of a busy square as a warning to others.

"I should have gone to the B&B with them when it wasn't so hot. Even if I get sunburned on the way, it's better than being beheaded at any moment in the Scorching Sun Base."

Guard Rong Gang was silent, his head lowered.

After a long time, he made a decision.

He held Li Jian's hand, his eyes determined, "We can't go on like this, we have to save ourselves."

"What are you doing over there?!" The voice of the supervisor's psychic came, very arrogant.

"Nothing, I just saw him almost fall, so I helped him up."

The high-level psychic glanced over and saw Rong Gang. As a guard who managed low-level psychics, Rong Gang's psychic abilities were not much different from those of high-level psychics.

The other party was very considerate and waved goodbye, letting them go.
