Chapter 89: Bad
Ji Changqing noticed that his thoughts had changed slightly.
At the beginning, he clearly wanted to watch with a mocking attitude how the other party became selfish step by step, and slowly revealed the ugly human nature under his nose.
I want to reassure myself that there is nothing worth liking about fellow human beings.
But now, in order to keep this guy alive, he actually took the initiative to try to teach him to be selfish and make him consider himself first.
Very weird.
Ji Changqing didn't quite understand.
He felt as if he were doing some kind of philanthropic work, helping vulnerable and foolish people integrate into the post-disaster world.
Maybe... it's because I've been observing him for more than twenty days and I can't bear to see this idiot die so easily.
Ji Changqing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that because of this person, he would unexpectedly evoke some of his remaining kindness towards others, which he himself had not even noticed.
Bring people to the rooftop.
Ji Changqing watched with interest as the other party held the telescope in trembling hands, observing with panic the new era after the natural disaster that was very familiar to him.
Ji Changqing discovered that he might show a little kindness when dealing with He Rui, but it was rare.
Just like now.
He found the guy trembling quite interesting.
As long as the person he was afraid of wasn't him, it would be fun to watch him get scared.
He turned his gaze to the underwater city below, where the water level had receded several meters but was still in the vast ocean.
Ji Changqing tried to extend his mental power out of the field and explore the surroundings to see if there were any evolvers among the survivors nearby and what the mutation progress of animals and plants was.
All navigation and communication satellites in orbit near the Blue Star suffered severe damage, and electronic signals across the planet were in chaos.
So even if the government wanted to command and comfort the survivors, it couldn't.
The army had already been stationed in various places and was building shelters, so they had no time to help these survivors who were late to realize the situation.
For those who have been abandoned, whether they are alive or not depends only on luck and themselves.
Since the initial high-energy particles would reach the Blue Planet directly, the shelter would have been best built underground. Hiding in the thick basement, they could escape the mass extinction of life on the planet's surface.
However, due to global climate change, natural disasters such as tsunamis and earthquakes have increased, and groundwater has backflowed. Therefore, the underground has become a less suitable place.
During this period, there was no environment that was most suitable for survival. There was only an environment that was barely sustainable compared to other places.
Ji Changqing saw quite a few rotting corpses floating in the water.
Floating corpses, broken trees, destroyed building wreckage, and various types of garbage were scattered along the current.
Many corpses in the water became food for birds. Both common and uncommon birds in the city appeared, gathering on the human corpses and pecking the bones until they became even more bloody.
He whispered to the people around him, "How is it?"
Are you very scared?
The disappearance of life, here, is such a simple thing.
When you come to this world, if you want to survive and live well, you must put aside the moral values and compassion that you don’t need to have.
It is okay not to harm others, but you must keep yourself safe and not save people at will, because the person you save may not be a human being.
"I feel sick and want to vomit." The other person answered muffledly under the mask, which was not the answer he wanted to know.
Ji Changqing simply replied with two words, "Don't spit."
The stench of corpses can spread over long distances.
I just wanted to vomit when I saw the scene, and it was thanks to the anti-gas filter mask that blocked most of the unpleasant stench. Otherwise, the piles of corpses now exposed to the strong sunlight and the rotten stench emitted by them would only make me vomit more.
The idiot suddenly screamed, pointing in a direction. "There's someone over there! In a boat, no, it looks like a speedboat! What's that person doing? Can't he get sunburned to death?"
Ji Changqing's gaze moved in the direction of He Rui's finger.
A man wearing a mask and a thick down jacket was seen sitting in an inflatable boat. His target seemed to be a large supermarket nearby.
"That person was looking for supplies, and he moved very quickly. If he had waited a little longer, when the sea water receded, the hungry survivors would have started to show up and fight for the nearby supplies, and mutated plants and animals would have appeared. It would have been much more difficult for one person to find supplies so easily." Ji Changqing commented.
There are smart people everywhere, but there are too many corpses and driftwood on the water, so this person needs to drive carefully to avoid the boat capsizing.
There should be people in the supermarket, but the disaster has just begun, and the scramble for supplies has not become too ugly.
"Brother Ji, why don't I go out and look for supplies? See if there are any small boats like this in the area. I don't remember if I bought one. If I didn't, the staff might have bought one for me. Take a look."
Ji Changqing turned his head to look at He Rui who made the suggestion. He didn't expect that the other party would take the initiative to bring up this matter.
Thinking back to what I had said at the beginning, I intended to let this person go out and collect supplies alone.
But it was just mentioned casually at the time.
Essentially, he himself does not feel hungry, and he can also create food and water by transforming matter. Moreover, this guy had previously stored a large amount of supplies just like he was purchasing goods.
Aside from the resource he devoured, such as metal, which he consumed at a very rapid rate, there was no need to gather additional supplies.
certainly.
Whatever he creates, he also needs to consume varying amounts of other substances.
If you just consume without replenishing, you will end up eating up all your savings.
The carbon steel bed made for this guy was also made from part of the metal that stupid truck had shipped to the warehouse before. It was just smelted and fused to change its state. It was not created out of nothing.
I feel inexplicably bad.
He looked at the guy coldly.
Too weak.
He was pinned to the ground by Ji Xinghan and couldn't get up. If he went out, wouldn't he be seeking death in minutes?
He pursed his lips, and a cold voice came out through the mask, "...You don't have to go for now, go back."
After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly towards the safety passage in disappointment.
......
Back at 701, Ji Changqing quickly put his protective suit back into the area of protection. With an expressionless face, he called the guy who was placing the drone he had picked up from the roof to his side and began to question him, "What did you say before?"
He Rui took off his protective suit with a confused look on his face and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Before you left the house, you clearly said you wouldn't care about people outside. But after you saw that man looking for supplies, why did you immediately start worrying about him getting sunburned?"
