Extreme Cold Apocalypse 03
Even the most advanced construction robot in City C could not reach such a fast speed, and she did not see Jiang Lin bringing any construction materials.
Song Shian stood at the city gate and watched silently for a long time.
"Leader, those Homo sapiens?" The subordinate walked up and whispered in Song Shian's ear.
"Take me there to have a look."
Song Shian turned and walked towards the city. The last time Jiang Lin and the others came to eliminate the threat of Homo sapiens, they only cut off the power supply they relied on for survival, but did not destroy their bodies.
These things that were supposed to be destroyed were kept by her again.
"These are Homo sapiens who are treated as rebels."
If Sheng Wei were here, he would find that these were all old friends from the Boundless Prison.
"But there's one rebel missing. I don't know where he went."
When the staff went to the Boundless Prison to count the Homo sapiens, they found that one rebel was missing. It looked like he had been taken down by force.
"Well, leave the rebels behind, and transform the rest of the disobedient ones into something else. Don't waste them." Song Shian didn't care much about the disappeared Homo sapiens rebel.
"By the way, send two more people to follow them in a car and see what the road is like."
The subordinate nodded and left quietly. The group of Homo sapiens in the room had been cleared of all attack programs and stayed quietly beside Song Shian, pouring her a cup of hot tea.
The warm tea dispelled a lot of the coldness outside.
Jiang Lin had not been driving on the road for long when he saw an unfamiliar car in the rearview mirror and knew at a glance that it belonged to Song Shian.
The C City emblem was clearly printed on the car, and Jiang Lin withdrew her gaze indifferently. Song Shian was more cautious than she had imagined, but that was just as well.
Brand new roads kept appearing under the car. Driving on this road was like driving on an acceleration strip, smooth and fast. In the car following behind, two construction workers from City C were amazed.
"How on earth did she do that?" This was completely beyond what humans could do.
"According to Team Leader Shen, she seems to have architectural abilities, but she doesn't use them often."
"It would be great if such talents could be found in our City C."
"Don't say that. Captain Song is already better than most people. Just be content."
The two chatted and laughed all the way to City B. They came here not only to investigate whether the road built by Jiang Lin met Song Shian's requirements.
They also had to go to City B to build the small base that Shen Xu assigned to them. After all, City C was still some distance away from City B. In this situation, it was obviously wiser to stick together and keep each other warm.
Therefore, Song Shian asked them to make the small base in City B meet the standards for residents of City C as soon as possible.
"Base commander, our team leader asked me to express our gratitude to you. The road you built is fantastic." Two construction workers got out of the car generously and expressed their gratitude to Jiang Lin.
Shen Xu glanced at Jiang Lin silently.
Jiang Lin's expression was indifferent and nothing could be seen. He just nodded slightly and left.
The two builders said hello to Shen Xu and headed towards their own small base.
"Song Shian is worried about us." Wen Yan looked thoughtfully at the direction where the people from City C left. The storage truck had already entered the base, and Xu Anan was registering and distributing winter clothes.
"It's normal to distrust. Do you dare to take this batch of winter clothes without checking?" Jiang Lin didn't care. She liked Song Shian's caution. Although it made people uncomfortable sometimes, she also inexplicably felt at ease.
Xu Anan has worked in logistics at the First Base for many years and is very good at controlling clothing quality.
Every piece of clothing that passed through her hands was quickly checked by her.
"The quality is very good. It's hard to imagine that we can receive a batch of such good winter clothes now." Xu Anan said to Jiang Lin who was standing next to her.
Jiang Lin nodded. The most obvious feeling after putting on these winter clothes was a comfortable and dry feeling, which was something that no other clothes had ever achieved.
However, the disadvantage of the cold-proof suit is that its defense is slightly lower than that of the combat suit, but Jiang Lin is already very satisfied.
The large supply of winter clothing allowed the base to resume its work efficiency. It was still snowing outside. Jiang Lin and Shen Xu both sent personnel to maintain the road conditions.
Otherwise, the road will be completely blocked by snow in less than half a day. Snow piles up for a long time will become very slippery and hard and more difficult to clear, so it is best to solve it when it is still soft.
Cui Yawen walked over from a distance. Jiang Lin hadn't seen her for a long time.
"Have you tried the base's special meals recently?" She looked at Jiang Lin with a smile.
"It seems not." Jiang Lin recalled that she didn't seem to eat anything special. The meals were all the same old porridge, easy-to-fill staple food and an egg.
"We used vegetarian food to create a product that looks very much like meat." Meat is rarely eaten at the base. Chickens and ducks are only sources of eggs and are generally not killed for meat.
But not eating it for a long time will affect everyone's health and mood.
Cui Yawen would add necessary nutrients to her daily porridge. These were stored before the end of the world. Although the impact of not having meat was not significant, it was always there.
"Then I'll try it some other day."
"You don't have to go specially. I'll ask them to add one more when they deliver the meal to you. You're too busy." Cui Yawen was like a kind elder.
Caring for everyone in the base.
Jiang Lin, however, had an additional idea. Whether it was City A, City B or City C, there was a shortage of meat. Although seafood could be caught from the sea, there was still something missing.
The snow outside was falling harder and denser, and visibility on the road became very low.
Jiang Lin glanced at the thermometer. The temperature had dropped to minus 30 degrees Celsius and was continuing to fall.
"Captain, how long will it take us to reach the next support point?" It was snowing heavily outside. A man wrapped up with only his eyes exposed asked the person in front of him.
"We're almost there. There's an abandoned building ahead that should be able to block most of the wind and snow for us." Jin Chengyu looked ahead, feeling very anxious.
There is endless white in front of me, and it seems like I will never find the exit.
But now he must remain calm in order to appease the people. If even he is afraid, everyone will be defeated immediately.
Fortunately, the building did exist a few hundred meters ahead, so he led the people and the cattle, sheep and horses brought from the original base into the shelter.
"Wow, the wind almost cracked my face through the cloth." As Xia Yang spoke, his cracked face burst into pain as if it was being pulled.
"It's a good thing we got out. The temperature in H City is now minus 70 degrees Celsius. If we stay there any longer, we will definitely die." Xia Yang admired Jin Chengyu's decisiveness.
According to their past experience, a temperature of minus 30 degrees Celsius is still manageable, but the constant flow of the university is a bit troublesome.
If they stayed in H City where the temperature was minus seventy degrees Celsius, they would be unable to move.
These cattle, sheep and horses that have been raised with great difficulty will quickly freeze to death.
The rich aroma of mutton soup wafted in. The logistics staff had already killed a few sheep and were stewing the mutton soup in a simple pot and the fire they brought.
The milky white soup with several large pieces of meat was distributed to everyone.
Combined with the spicy spices, it instantly warmed up everyone's bodies that were a little stiff from the cold.
Jin Chengyu looked at the device in his hand. There were many heat sources in City B not far ahead, and there should be survivors there.
But will they be willing to accept outsiders?
Or is it still humans that are emitting heat there?
Jin Chengyu didn't dare to think about it too much. Their car was no longer able to move, so they could only walk. City B was the only city where there might be survivors.
He wanted to take a gamble.
"After eating, let's take a break and then continue our journey." Jin Chengyu put down the empty bowl of soup and stood up from the ground. Everyone was already very tired, but everyone resisted.
After all, the longer they stay on the road, the more dangerous it becomes, and they can't wait to find a place to settle down.
The huge team, a mixture of humans and animals, turned into small black dots on the vast snow and moved slowly.
As expected, what Cui Yawen mentioned was served at dinner time. Jiang Lin tasted it with great anticipation, and could only say that it was a little different from real meat.
She finished her vegetarian meat pie and lay on the sofa, watching the snow outside the window.
After a while, an intermediate-level alarm sounded from the patrol team outside.
[Base leader, there is an inbound team, bringing with them a large amount of livestock resources.]
Jiang Lin widened her eyes and stood up from the sofa. The temperature was even lower at night, so she put on a cloak and walked out of the room.
Wen Yan drove to pick her up and took her to the city gate to meet the survivors.
Jin Chengyu originally thought that he would be given a hard time, but the people in City B were friendlier than they imagined after confirming that they were living human beings.
The patrol leader took them into a sheltered area.
"What kind of person is your base commander?" He couldn't help but inquire about the people in power in City B, hoping to obtain useful information that would be beneficial to the subsequent negotiations.
"She is a very capable and good person." The patrol captain touched his head and took a long time to say this.
This was too general and he was unable to judge.
Just as the stalemate was going on, someone walked into the shelter.
A woman, wearing a gray-black winter suit, with her hat taken off, revealing a resolute face, with clear eyebrows and eyes, and the heroic air and dominance of a superior.
Jiang Lin was also secretly looking at him at this moment.
This group of people were wearing leather clothes that looked like they were made directly from animal fur. Just before coming in, she also saw many people building temporary shelters for the densely packed cattle, sheep and horses.
Jiang Lin also lent a hand, and it should be built now.
Jin Chengyu was the first to extend his hand: "Hello, we are from H City."
Jiang Lin extended his hand and shook it back: "Were all those beasts outside bred by you?"
"Yes, H City is cold. If we didn't have meat, we would have frozen to death."
"We came here this time because the temperature in H City is no longer suitable for survival. We need to find a new shelter and try our luck in B City."
Jiang Lin nodded: "The base in City B is gone, but there is a large air-raid shelter right here, right under your feet. You can live here."
"It will be warmer in the air-raid shelter, and I will provide you with heating equipment."
"And I want 100 cattle, sheep, and horses, and I need you to send people to Base A to help with the breeding until we can take over the breeding work ourselves."
Jiang Lin's calmness made him feel relieved but also felt invisible pressure.
A total of 300 animals was a huge expense for them, and he was not sure whether the person in front of him would fulfill his promise.
"Come with me and take a look." Jiang Lin walked to the intersection of the air-raid shelter.
This air-raid shelter had been simply renovated before to clean up the dead bodies, and with Jiang Lin's preparations in advance, it is now completely habitable.
