Chapter 617 The Cold is Coming



While the gifted ones are obsessed with finding various ways to obtain the energy stones in the icicles, ordinary people are facing a new round of challenges.

After the extreme cold came, those insects that had been impossible to get rid of before seemed to disappear in an instant.

Their skin, which was bitten all over, could finally rest.

As a result, I didn’t have time to be happy for a few days.

The disease spread silently among ordinary people.

First, an old man on the ground suddenly started coughing and having a runny nose.

She didn't take it seriously. After finishing her breakfast, she just got together with her neighbors to chat and pass the time.

After all, everyone has caught a cold. Just ignore it and rely on your own immunity, and you will be fine in more than a week.

What's more, their physical condition has improved a lot now, so it probably won't take a week.

Unexpectedly, one day later, when the old man returned home at night, he suddenly developed a fever and started foaming at the mouth in the second half of the night.

By the time the family members finally found the medicine and wanted to feed it to the old man, the old man had already passed away.

It only took three days.

This was just the beginning. After a few days, more and more elderly people and children in the whole building became sick.

The talented people panicked this time and quickly found the entrance to the dungeon, wanting to send people to the hospital in the dungeon.

The staff at the entrance was in a dilemma. "It's not that we don't want to take the patients, but we don't have any medicine right now. Even if you send people here, they can't be cured without medicine. If all the patients gather together and don't get taken care of, their condition will get worse."

"So you're just going to ignore it?! At least think of a solution! You can't just watch my daughter die of illness like that!"

"Yes, the child keeps coughing and his ribs are about to break. Can you think of a solution?"

The staff was left with no choice but to say, "If you don't believe me, just come down and see for yourself. There's also a flu outbreak in the underground city, and the situation is even worse than above ground."

The gifted people didn't believe it and thought the base was deceiving them.

When they went to the underground city, they turned around and ran away while holding their patient.

This is not a hospital at all. This is just sending people to die.

Countless sick people were lying together in several tents. Not to mention bedding, they didn't even have water to dine on. The room was cold and gloomy, and there was a foul smell.

There were constant sounds of coughing and suppressed vomiting. Their faces and bodies were covered with frostbite. They were as thin as skeletons and were covered in vomit and excrement.

"Every staff member at the base is responsible for hundreds of people. They are simply too busy to handle it. If your family can take care of the children, it is better not to send them here."

The staff at the base looked tired as they spoke.

She has been working for 16 hours straight.

If she didn't have children to raise at home, she would never do this job even if she was beaten to death.

It was a complete torture for her to watch so many people wailing desperately and dying in pain every day without being able to do anything about it.

"Then won't the base think of a solution?"

The gifted people who have patients at home are extremely anxious. The old lady upstairs died within three days of falling ill!

They can't wait!

"Of course I did." The staff member smiled bitterly. She felt helpless when talking about this matter.

"You have to give the base some time! This disease has been raging for only two days since it was discovered. Those responsible for researching medicine are not gods, so how can they find the right medicine within two days?

Go back and persevere, drink more hot water, eat more, increase your own resistance, and hope to wake up soon."

"Are you sick? If you have a heat stroke, drink more hot water! If you are bitten by an insect, drink more hot water! If you are hungry or thirsty, drink more hot water! Drink more hot water for everything! That is hot water, not magic wine! If you drink too much, you will pee! If you go downstairs to the toilet, you will be cold again!"

"Awakening? Awakening can cure all diseases? It means we can awaken whenever we want? You guys have been researching for so long and still haven't figured out how to awaken. Now you want us to go home and awaken without even trying. I don't think you are awakening!"

Only a few talented people can reach the energy stone, and most of them cannot. Now they have nothing to do and are full of anger, so they block the entrance to the base's dungeon and curse like long-haired animals every day.

We must get an explanation from the base.

The base is in a dilemma.

We can only speed up the research and development of the right medicine.

Every morning, at the entrance to the dungeon, there are a dozen long-haired animals that try various methods to block people, seriously affecting the base's pace of collecting energy stones.

In the end, they had no other choice but to introduce an ordinary sick man named Wang Juexing.

If I don't do any work every day, I will stand up and get scolded on behalf of the base. After those people have finished scolding me, I will go off work.

This person volunteered.

He thought clearly that since he was sick and would not live for many days, he might as well earn some food for his family.

As a result, after working for just a few days, I became sick and depressed.

Suddenly woke up!

And awakened successfully.

Finally the illness was cured.

The job of guarding the gate suddenly went from being something no one wanted to do to something that everyone was scrambling to do.

Those who don’t care will not get their turn yet!

Everyone suddenly realized!

No wonder the base didn’t find the reason for awakening, it turned out to be because of being scolded!

Who could have guessed this weird way of awakening?

So, every day several patients stood at the entrance of the dungeon waiting to be scolded.

It's true, they did get a little bit of the method of awakening.

Awakening means that the energy in the body has accumulated to a certain level and is matched by extreme emotions.

If the energy in the body is not accumulated enough, even if you are scolded to death, you will not be able to awaken.

Similarly, the energy has been accumulated, but the person's emotions have been very stable without fluctuations, and he cannot awaken. Both are indispensable.

Now that I am scolded every day, at least one of the conditions for awakening is guaranteed to be met.

As for the other one, it’s hard to say…

Although Ji He is busy, he still goes home to sleep every day.

That day, when she got up early and was eating, she saw Yuanqiu mysteriously sticking half of his body out of the door.

"Who's outside the door?"

The ball retracted its head and said excitedly, "You don't know, it's been very lively recently!"

"Can you tell me more about this?" Ji He took a sip of the red bean porridge and was very satisfied.

Dafengshou’s red bean cooking skills are truly amazing, and all of their red beans taste great.

"A large number of ordinary people in the underground city failed to awaken and turned into turbid beasts, killing many innocent people. The underground city is too crowded with people. The base is now encouraging people to return to the ground and live in dispersed areas."

After making a long story short, Yuanqiu gloated, "But the people who went underground didn't have enough fuel to begin with, and they still came back to the surface? Are they waiting to freeze to death?"

Ji He added a spoonful of three cups chicken, "What about those gifted people who have awakened recently? Aren't they afraid of the cold?"

Most of the gifted people who are awakened by this weather have thick fur, so they don’t have to worry about freezing to death. They can live alone here and avoid being implicated.
