Chapter 61 Extreme Heat and Hail
Hou Ting walked over quickly and said, "Shanshan, what's going on? Why are they suddenly on high alert?"
Yin Shan said, "I don't know, but I just feel uneasy. Tell the residents not to go out unless necessary." Then he raised his hand and called out, "Hanhan, Qixi, come here."
Woof woof!
Meow~
When the two little ones heard Yin Shan’s call, they immediately ran over. Yin Shan reminded them, “Strengthen patrols and pay attention to safety.” The two rubbed Yin Shan’s legs, nodded, and ran away immediately.
Hou Ting: "Holy crap! Are these two spirits? Am I seeing right? Did they nod just now?"
Yin Shan said, "Academician Li said that Hanhan and Qixi already have a certain level of thinking ability. They can actually fully understand what we want to express. It's just that we don't understand animal language, so communication is still a little difficult.
Animals evolved earlier than us. Perhaps they were already evolving, and the water from Linghu Lake accelerated the process. However, most of the mutated animals we have seen still have only simple thinking, so it is not very obvious.
We have to hurry up, what we lack most now is the crystal core. Only with the crystal core can we improve our ability level faster and cope with the great changes that are coming."
The two best friends were silent. If animals evolved like humans, and would produce secondary mutations after reaching a certain level, then they would have to face unknown forces.
Because no one knows what supernatural powers animals gain through secondary mutation, even though Yin Shan has experience from his previous life.
But she was too weak in her previous life. Apart from knowing about natural disasters and the direction of some major events that everyone knew about, Yin Shan was actually not very clear about the specific changes.
We can only take one step at a time, so from the very beginning, Yin Shan planned to take over Li Guangnian's scientific research team. There are so many things they can do.
In the future, she will also need scientific research teams in other fields, such as agriculture, breeding, traditional Chinese medicine, etc.
She even needs a blacksmith. Hot weapons will eventually run out, and it is only a matter of time before we return to the era of cold weapons. Superpowers and cold weapons will dominate future battles.
"Monkey, we still need to stock up on some materials, including steel, titanium, aluminum alloy, and other metal materials. Talk to Chen Feng and see where we can find these materials. Come with me in two days."
Hou Ting said, "It's fine for the two of us to go, but what if we encounter any survivors? City A doesn't have an official base, and I don't think the Xinlong base is keen on accepting survivors. We don't know how many survivors there are in City A, or whether there are any criminal gangs."
"Xinlong Base doesn't have that much food in stock. Rashly absorbing a large number of survivors will only create a vicious cycle. Commander Chen must have some concerns, so he has been hesitant to act.
Let's wait a little longer until they come to us to buy food. There's no need to rush to do this.
Our base also needs to survive, so there's no reason for us to rush to support others. I'm not a victim!" Yin Shan said indifferently.
"Oh, what did Commander Chen say back then? Oh, he said you have great love~ great love~"
Yin Shan rolled his eyes. "What the hell is love? Why don't you sing "The Sea" to him? Okay, let's go see Zhou Xue. It's still surgery, so as a leader, I have to express my condolences!"
Hou Ting: They're clearly worried about not having enough medicine and something bad happening...and they're still offering condolences... Ugh! They're so hypocritical!
The two arrived at the base hospital just as the surgery was about to end. Wang Lu came out first and said, "The surgery went smoothly, but if you want to avoid any sequelae, you'll need at least a month of rest."
Yin Shan said, "Have Qiu Jiang take good care of her. From now on, all meals at the base hospital will be made with water from the Spirit Lake. Anyone who doesn't use it is a fool. We are so short of medicine that we can only use the water from the Spirit Lake to make up for it."
Wang Lu smiled and said, "You are using the ceiling mount. With the spiritual lake water, it will be fine. It will recover faster."
"Ding, the defense upgrade is complete."
"Big sister, the temperature has suddenly risen! It's minus 10 degrees Celsius outside now, and it feels like it's still rising. It's also cloudy! Is there something wrong with the weather bureau's forecast? Will there be heavy rain after the extreme cold?"
The system prompt sound and Chen Feng's voice sounded at the same time.
Yin Shan frowned. It had only been about 20 minutes since she and Hou Ting entered the hospital. It was freezing cold outside when they came in, so how could the temperature suddenly rise?
"Everyone, the temperature has risen abnormally. Prepare sandbags immediately and place them at the door. Be waterproof as there may be heavy rain. Li Xin, pay attention to the temperature of the hydroponic vegetables in case of sudden weather changes." Yin Shan immediately took out the walkie-talkie to notify everyone in the base.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a crackling sound outside.
"Ding, super hail detected, defenses activated, shield deployed, current shield duration: 3 hours.
Each additional hour costs 2 points. Do you want to add automatic renewal?
Yin Shan chose to add the message. He took out the intercom again and said, "Everyone, stay indoors! Super hail is coming!"
"Wang Lu, Monkey, let's go out and take a look!" Yin Shan said.
The three of them went out, and hailstones were visible to the naked eye, but they were blocked by a layer of transparent protective shield. Some of them could even feel the vibration of the hailstones hitting the protective shield.
Yin Shan was worried, so he stacked layer upon layer of air walls under the protective shield to prevent the shield from cracking and crashing into the base.
Yin Shan said, "Wang Lu, try to attach air shields above every villa. I don't know how long this thing will rain, and I don't know if this protective shield can withstand it, but it's always better to be prepared."
10 minutes....
30 minutes...
One hour...
The hail continued to fall for three hours and there seemed to be no sign of it stopping.
All the residents saw Yin Shan standing in the center of the base and using his supernatural powers. Everyone was shocked. What they saw was that their base leader and Wang Lu were afraid that the hail would destroy their homes, so they used their supernatural powers to support them.
But what Yin Shan saw was this magical protective shield, which showed no signs of failing at all!
Hou Ting noticed everyone's expressions and whispered a warning, "You're in a difficult situation now. Everyone thinks this shield is your special ability. Even if you're just pretending, you have to hold on until the hailstorm ends.
What the hell did this system give you? It's so awesome!"
Yin Shan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I don't know either, but this thing costs points anyway. My head hurts, so I might as well use my superpowers to hold on."
Guan Yunhua rushed over: "Shanshan! The temperature has risen again. I think the hail may turn into a rainstorm. Can your supernatural power withstand it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the hail stopped, just for a moment, as if the hail just now was just an illusion of everyone. The dark clouds in the sky disappeared in an instant, and the sky was clear instead.
Everyone was stunned. Yin Shan withdrew his supernatural power, carefully felt the temperature, his face changed slightly, and he took out a thermometer. Sure enough, it was 30 degrees Celsius above zero.
It's only been a few hours and the temperature has soared from minus 60 degrees Celsius to plus 30 degrees Celsius. Even a bungee jumping machine can't be that fast, right?
Yin Shan quickly ran to the hydroponic warehouse. Her vegetables! The vegetables she had been longing for!
Seeing Yin Shan running over, Li Xin said immediately without waiting for her to ask, "Base Commander, we just noticed the temperature change outside and turned on the air conditioner. Luckily, we had already prepared everything beforehand, otherwise these vegetables might not have survived! It seems that there is no big problem now."
Yin Shan nodded. These girls were attentive, quick-witted, and responsible. If it weren't for the apocalypse, with their abilities, they would have a better future.
Everyone at the base took off their cotton coats and pants with sweat on their foreheads, and immediately began to move sandbags to block the entrance of the base. With the temperature rising so high, it was only a matter of time before the ice melted, and they had to prevent floods.
Yin Shan’s air wall can protect her for a while, but if her special power is exhausted, she will still have to rely on primitive methods to solve the problem.
Lei Ting's voice came over the intercom: "Boss, we've received a letter from Xinlong Base. They predict there will be a short-term flood. They predict the flood will not last more than a day. The temperature will continue to rise, and the flood water will evaporate. Please pay attention."
Yin Shan said, "Return to Xinlong Base to prevent the mutant organisms and bacteria brought by the flood. Do a good job of disinfection. The high temperature will awaken the virus, and then there will be trouble."
After thinking for a moment, Yin Shan took out the intercom again and said, "Academician Li, do you have any good suggestions?"
"Girl, I don't have any good suggestions right now. I can only say that you deserve 84 disinfectant. Don't tell me you don't have it!" Li Guangnian's voice rang out.
Yin Shan twitched his lips, what an unlovable old man!
