Chapter 406 Meteor Shower Landing
The military has been responsible for the construction of the underground city, and has a higher level of mastery of the underground city's operating system than Jiang Yue. However, Jiang Yue's technology is slightly better than the military, so the two parties can cooperate to achieve the goal as quickly as possible.
Yu Jie was in charge of the connection with the military, while Xia Xiaoman was in charge of some secret operations.
The only thing that stands out about Xia Xiaoman is Maodan. Now Maodan is already a member of the Half Endangered Animal Science Museum. No one will keep an eye on Xia Xiaoman, so Xia Xiaoman can be held responsible for some things that are not suitable to be done in public.
As for Jiang Yue, a technical talent, she only needs to stay in her small house and work on the computer.
Xia Xiaoman returned home with the scanner and the modified chip. The next evening, people came to collect the chips.
In order to prevent someone from claiming the chip impersonatorily, Jiang Yue had already sent the list of people who were going to collect the chip to her mobile phone in advance. Only after verifying the information would Xia Xiaoman take out the scanner to scan the chip location.
There are men and women who come to collect the chips. They don't talk much when they come, probably because they are afraid of leaking information. Most people will choose to dig the chips themselves after determining the location of the chips.
Nowadays, no one would let someone point a knife at them unless they were a doctor, a nurse, or someone you trusted extremely much.
There are also a small number of people whose chips are injected behind the shoulder or the back of the neck, and they are unable to dig the chips out themselves, so they have to ask Xia Xiaoman to do it.
Xia Xiaoman wrote a life and death agreement by hand. As long as the other party was willing to sign it, she would dare to dig the chip. Those who were unwilling to sign it could take the chip and leave quickly.
Seeing that life and death statement, you can tell what Xia Xiaoman's level is. Who dares to let her dig chips? So much so that all the chips in the box were taken away, and no one signed the life and death statement.
On the third day after the chips were collected, Jiang Yue sent another message, saying that the military had received their sincerity and secretly made a batch of jammers. She asked Xia Xiaoman to go get them when she was free and distribute them to the survivors. As for how to distribute them, Xia Xiaoman decided for herself.
Xia Xiaoman got the jammer, opened it and took a look. It was exactly the same as the one Wang Shijin gave her.
"Doesn't Yu Jie need a jammer?"
Jiang Yue said as she typed on the keyboard: "The key figures on Yu Jie's side have already had their chips replaced, and I don't know if the rest have been infiltrated by people in the capital, so Yu Jie doesn't plan to give them the jammers for the time being."
She looked up at Xia Xiaoman and said, "From now on, you will come to me every five days to get a batch of jammers. Here is a list. Only those on the list can get jammers. Those who are not on the list cannot get jammers."
The list included carefully selected survivors to ensure that there were no spies from the capital. Jiang Yue had blocked official surveillance and privately sent confidentiality agreements to these survivors, asking them to keep the jammer secret.
Xia Xiaoman nodded and asked, "What about the other underground city?"
"We can't take care of Xinfu City No. 2 for now. Both underground cities are already closed. The plan is to build a channel connecting to Xinfu City No. 2 after the meteor shower. Before the channel is built, we have no way to contact Xinfu City No. 2."
After hearing what Jiang Yue said, Xia Xiaoman said, "What if the capital uses Xinfu City No. 2 to threaten Mayor Yu..."
"The capital won't do that." Jiang Yue shook her head and said, "The manager of Xinfu City No. 2 is Yu Jie's mortal enemy. The capital won't be so stupid as to threaten Yu Jie with her enemy."
Xia Xiaoman frowned. How could such a small floating city hide so many forces?
"Don't worry about other things, just spread the jammers... Shit, what's going on?" Jiang Yue hadn't finished speaking when the house suddenly shook for no apparent reason. It shook for three or four seconds, then stopped. After a while, it started shaking again, and it repeated many times.
Jiang Yue realized that something was wrong. Her slender fingers jumped quickly on the keyboard. In less than a minute, the computer screen showed the situation outside.
One after another, fireballs glowing red fell from the sky and hit the ground heavily. A stone mountain not far in front of the entrance to the dungeon was smashed to pieces by the meteorites in an instant, and countless pieces of gravel flew out.
"Meteor shower! It's a meteor shower. The Blue Planet has entered the planetary debris belt ahead of time!" Jiang Yue's face looked very ugly.
Xia Xiaoman's heart was in her throat. Although the guide said when she came in that the meteorite would not break through the underground city, she had no confidence in the underground city at all after seeing the meteorite with such a strong impact.
The meteorite hit the ground violently, creating deep pits in an instant. The surrounding dust was blown up, making it difficult to see clearly.
Suddenly, someone seemed to cry for help from the computer. Jiang Yue quickly tapped the keyboard, and soon the screen page switched to another shot.
At the entrance of the dungeon, some survivors frantically banged on the door, crying and shouting for the people inside to open the door. Some survivors huddled in the corner, staring blankly at the meteorite falling from the sky, wondering if they were frightened out of their wits.
Xia Xiaoman frowned, "Why are there so many survivors at the entrance of the underground city?"
Jiang Yue sighed and said, "They have been staying here since before the dungeon was closed, hoping that the dungeon will be merciful and open the door to let them in, so they have been staying at the entrance of the dungeon and refusing to leave."
The idea of these people is very simple. The dungeon is now one person per job. If someone dies in the dungeon, it means a vacancy. They stay at the entrance of the dungeon so that they can grab this vacancy first.
But I didn’t expect that the meteorite shower appeared before the quota was announced.
The meteorites that fall from the sky vary in size. Small meteorites will form a small crater less than half a meter in diameter when hitting the ground, while large meteorites are enough to destroy a hill.
The underground city was confined, so only some vibrations could be felt. However, Xia Xiaoman and Jiang Yue could hear continuous rumbling sounds from outside through the computer monitor. Each sound was extremely loud, and even if Jiang Yue turned the volume down to the minimum, he could still hear the loud noises.
The survivors hiding at the entrance of the dungeon looked up at the sky in despair. Faced with such a devastating meteorite shower, they had no power to fight back and could only watch the meteorites fall.
Even more despairing is the heat these meteorites emit after they fall.
The weather in the eternal day was already very hot. These meteorites have their own high temperatures. You don't need to get close to them, just take a look, you can see the layers of heat waves emanating from the meteorites.
At this moment, the only thing the survivors can be thankful for is that in the past few years, the trees in the mountains have been consumed to the point where there are very few left. Otherwise, they would not only have to face the meteor shower, but also the overwhelming and inextinguishable mountain fires.
Xia Xiaoman didn't know how the survivors who remained in the garrison would deal with this meteorite shower.
But she guessed that the survivors would find a house to hide in. Just like the survivors at the entrance of the dungeon, they all squeezed into the small hole at the entrance. Some even viciously pushed others behind them in order to hide in the innermost part.
At the moment of life and death, the ugliness of human nature is fully displayed.
