At 8 p.m., as the dim sun set, the already gloomy world turned completely dark.
The outside temperature has temporarily stabilized at -8℃.
But let alone in this season that should be scorching hot, even in the cold winter, Anping, a region located in the southern part of the Great Xia Dynasty, has never experienced such extreme low temperatures in recent decades. An atmosphere of despair enveloped the entire city of Anping.
Chen Yu stood on the observation deck of the post-apocalyptic bunker, looking down at the entire city of Anping with an indifferent expression. His face was expressionless, as if everything in this world was irrelevant to him.
It wasn't that Chen Yu was cold-hearted; it was simply because he had experienced the cruelty of this natural disaster.
He knew that the extreme cold disaster was a catastrophe for the entire planet Earth; it did not discriminate based on national borders, race, or wealth, and it engulfed all life.
Anping City at this moment is merely a microcosm of this disaster.
Most importantly, if that's all there is to it, how can it be called an extremely cold apocalypse?
This is just the appetizer of this extreme cold disaster. Although -8°C may initially feel uncomfortable for some people living in the south, as long as they take precautions against the cold, it will not have a significant impact on human civilization in the short term.
The real challenge for human civilization is yet to come; an average temperature of -70°C will completely throw the world into chaos.
The first challenge people face is how to survive in an environment where temperatures are consistently below -60°C, followed closely by the issue of food security.
In such extremely cold weather, apart from a very few viruses and bacteria and other lower organisms, no plants or animals can survive outdoors. The inability to produce food means that the survivors can only sit and wait until their resources run out.
Soon, in order to seize the remaining supplies, the fighting and conflicts among the people will inevitably intensify until they finally get out of control and completely turn into a pack of wild beasts.
Faced with such a devastating disaster, even governments around the world are helpless. What can Chen Yu, an ordinary person, possibly do?
Although he had a lot of supplies, he couldn't save everyone. He could only save himself. His priority was to survive in the extreme cold of the apocalypse. After all, there is hope only when you are alive, right?
"Sir... what should we do now?" Lin Lele, still shaken, came to the observation deck and cautiously asked Chen Yu.
Chen Yu didn't say anything, but picked up two sets of professional cold-weather suits that he had prepared in advance from the sofa, and threw one set to Lin Lele.
He said calmly, "Put it on."
Lin Lele was a little confused as she took the bulky winter coat that Chen Yu threw at her. The room temperature was 23°C, which was the most comfortable temperature for the body.
Although she felt a bit chilly in her summer outfit, she thought it was too much to wear something so outrageous. Wearing this would probably make her suffocate.
Ignoring Lin Lele's hesitation, Chen Yu quickly put on his winter coat and then tapped the bulletproof glass in front of him a few times. A piece of the bulletproof glass separated from the middle and slid to the sides.
The moment the glass was opened, a biting wind howled in.
Lin Lele, still wearing summer clothes, immediately shivered, feeling as if she were about to be frozen. She instinctively shrank back, trying to avoid the biting cold wind.
At the same time, he hurriedly put on the winter coat.
Chen Yu simply watched indifferently. Since Lin Lele had stayed in his post-apocalyptic bunker by chance, the first thing she needed to do was to be absolutely obedient to Chen Yu.
After finally getting dressed, Lin Lele felt as if her body belonged to her again. She breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Chen Yu.
However, what she saw before her eyes made her scream.
Chen Yu was actually dragging Huang Juncai's corpse!
Although she had seen Chen Yu shoot and kill people clearly from the command center, it was all through a screen, like watching a movie, so she didn't really feel anything.
When she arrived, she was so shocked by the events of the day, and with the sofa obscuring her view, that she didn't notice Huang Juncai's body.
Seeing the blood-soaked corpse with a large hole in its forehead being dragged by Chen Yu, she couldn't help but scream. Her face turned ashen, and she felt a churning in her stomach.
"Hurry up and help! If you call me again, I'll throw you down too!" Chen Yu said coldly.
Lin Lele trembled at Chen Yu's voice. For a moment, she felt that Chen Yu in front of her was a stranger!
Chen Yu also realized that his attitude just now was a bit too much. Although the extreme cold apocalypse had arrived and he no longer needed to have any concerns, Lin Lele was still living in his bunker, and he still needed Lin Lele to help him with some tasks. If he pushed Lin Lele too far, it would not be worth it to scheme against her.
Chen Yu's tone softened, his expression turning grave. "Lele, when the extreme cold disaster strikes, everyone can fall, everyone can feel fear. But those of us entrusted with important responsibilities and special missions by the organization cannot fall, much less retreat! You must cultivate an indomitable mental fortitude! Only then can you live up to the organization's trust in you! Live up to the people of Great Xia! Live up to all living beings on Blue Star!"
Chen Yu became more and more passionate as he spoke, and Lin Lele listened with great enthusiasm, nodding firmly with a determined expression.
She took a deep breath, jogged over to Chen Yu, and lifted Huang Juncai's other side of his body. However, when she saw Huang Juncai's horrific condition, she couldn't help but turn her head away and close her eyes tightly.
Fortunately, she didn't let go despite being so scared, which is quite courageous. Perhaps this is the power of faith!
Chen Yu counted to three.
Huang Juncai's body was thrown off the cliff.
Next, Chen Yu wiped the bloodstains off the window with a towel, closed the window again, and took off his bulky winter coat.
Then he said to Lin Lele, "Clean this place up, I'm going to take a nap first."
Without looking back, he walked into the bunker.
Lin Lele was left sitting on the ground, her face deathly pale. It took her a long time to recover. When she turned around, she found that she was the only one left on the observation deck, surrounded by complete silence.
She shuddered and instinctively went to the bunker to find Chen Yu.
However, when she saw the tightly closed door in the passageway connecting the bunker and the observation deck, she was stunned. Chen Yu had actually locked her out!
With no other option, she forced herself to retreat back to the observation deck, cleaned up the pool of blood that terrified her, and then curled up on the sofa, trembling.
