Outside the window, several trains whizzed past. Shockingly, the trains had no carriages. Instead, they were filled with all kinds of cold and terrifying military vehicles, including tanks, missile vehicles, armored vehicles, and many modern weapons that Lu Tian couldn't name.
It was night time now, and the sudden appearance of so many trains brought great surprise and cheers to the passengers on the trains.
As the train passed by, exclamations came one after another from outside the carriage, with a hint of relief in the surprise.
Yanxia's weapons rarely appear in the field of vision of ordinary people. Scenes like tonight's can usually only be glimpsed during major national festivals and large-scale exercises.
"Is this a drill?"
Yao Qingwan's eyes lit up. In order to see more clearly, she almost stuck her whole body to the window and said with some confusion.
Lu Tian shook his head slightly, a trace of solemnity flashing in his eyes. This was not an exercise nor a performance for a large festival. If he guessed correctly, it should involve the country's strategic deployment, deployment of troops, and response to the coming of the doomsday disaster.
I don’t know whether Murong Liuyu has reported his words to the emperor and attracted enough attention from above.
"I hope the higher-ups will listen to Murong Liuyu's words and save as much as possible, and preserve as much strength as possible, so that Doomsday Yanxia can have a higher status and voice in the Earth Federation, rather than being bullied and exploited by Western hegemony.
At the end of the world, due to plate movement, except for Antarctica, the other five continental plates are combined into a new continent, surrounded by the sea. The continent only accounts for one tenth of the earth's area, and the rest is ocean.
The Earth has established the Earth Federation to share Earth's resources and jointly fight against wild beasts, wild beastmen and unknown dangers.
There are five major forces in the Federation. The strongest is the former united forces of ancient Western nobles in the center, followed by the former alliance of Western governments in the west, then the former mysterious ancient Indian Shabhara in the north, then the Eastern Yanxia, and the southern tribal alliance, the former third world.
The strength of the five factions depended not only on the power of their weapons but also on the number of peak War God-level warriors. The strongest, the Western Nobles, possessed 108 War God-level warriors, followed by the Western Government Alliance with 96, Ancient India with 81, and Yanxia with 62. The weakest, the Tribal Alliance, had only 36.
The God of War level is a general term for innate ancient warriors, S-level superpower masters, and S-level biochemical warriors.
"Brother Lu, what's wrong with you?"
A shout interrupted Lu Tian's memories, and he saw Yao Qingwan looking at him worriedly.
Lu Tian smiled slightly and said:
"It's okay, I just thought of something. These military preparations shouldn't be exercises."
"Why, then why did it appear?"
Yao Qingwan asked in confusion.
"These weapons and equipment are all real guns and live ammunition, real weapons, and powerful weapons. They are not fake ammunition used in exercises. Moreover, such a large-scale mobilization is not necessary for an exercise.
I think it should be a national military strategic deployment to deal with emergencies."
"Is there going to be a war? Will it be with the Beautiful Country or the Ancient India?"
Yao Qingwan said in surprise.
"It doesn't necessarily mean war, it could be dealing with a major disaster, like the end of the world!"
Lu Tian said this half-truthfully. Although he knew that these weapons and equipment should be related to the upcoming disaster, he couldn't say it openly. If he did, Yao Qingwan would probably think he was a fool.
"How is that possible? Brother Lu, do you believe in the theory of the end of the world?"
Yao Qingwan said with her eyes wide open, although she believed Lu Tian's speculation about weapons and equipment, she did not believe in the theory of doomsday.
"It's not a matter of belief or disbelief. It's better to believe it than not to believe it. It's always better to be prepared, isn't it?"
Lu Tian said lightly, feeling a little sad. Even at this time, most people were still kept in the dark, immersed in the peace and prosperity, and had no idea that danger was coming.
Seeing Yao Qingwan now, he felt as if he was seeing himself in his previous life. Even at the moment when the disaster struck, he still didn't believe that it was really the end of the world.
Yao Qingwan nodded, but her eyes showed disapproval.
At this time, the train broadcast issued a signal to turn off the lights. Yao Qingwan went to wash up, and Lu Tian also went back to bed to rest.
After a while, Yao Qingwan finished washing up and turned off the lights.
The night was quiet and the people in the train gradually fell asleep. After an unknown amount of time, a loud noise, including shouting and crying, was heard in the carriage.
"What's going on!"
Lu Tian was awakened by the noise. The carriage was pitch black and he had no idea what was going on.
Suddenly, the train announcement blared: "Dear passengers, we are truly sorry. Due to extreme weather conditions, the train's power system has malfunctioned and the air conditioning is not working. Please prepare warm clothing and overcome this hardship together!"
At this time, Lu Tiancai felt that the carriage had become as cold as ice without him knowing when, and estimated that the temperature in the carriage should be around minus 20 degrees Celsius.
However, he is immune to cold and heat, and there is no difference between twenty degrees below zero and twenty degrees above zero to him.
But for ordinary people, it is a big disaster. If they cannot keep warm in time, they may freeze to death.
Furthermore, it is unknown when the power system will be restored, and the train will not be able to provide heating, so the temperature in the carriages will continue to drop, possibly reaching minus 30 degrees Celsius or even lower.
"Is a global extreme cold about to begin?"
Lu Tian realized that the severe low temperature weather might be a sign of an extreme cold disaster, and that such weather would probably become more frequent in the future.
There was a rustling sound and a movement. Yao Qingwan climbed out of bed, holding the quilt and stood by the bed.
In the darkness, Yao Qingwan looked nervous and hesitant.
