Tibetan area.
General Wang Sihai climbed to a high place and looked into the distance. He felt very heavy-hearted when he saw the surging flood in the distance.
Despite receding again and again, the flood is still approaching step by step, and is even about to submerge this "Roof of the World". If that day really comes, how many ordinary people and those with primary superpowers can survive?
The only way was to build several huge sea fortresses as quickly as possible and transfer as many people as possible to the ships before the flood submerged the towering mountains.
But how long can this method last?
He had no idea at all.
If everyone could awaken abilities like the legendary mermaids, fully adapt to life in the water, and transform humans into aquatic creatures alive, perhaps that would be a way to survive...
But, is it possible?
"How's the shipbuilding going?"
"General, progress...isn't going smoothly. We gave up a large amount of steel reserves when we moved. Even if we work overtime to refine it, it will be difficult to make up for the shortage of refined steel. Moreover, we lack not only materials, but also...talent."
"We've only built a few dozen medium-sized ships, but I'm afraid they won't be able to handle long-term survival at sea and the unpredictable maritime environment..."
After hearing this, General Wang Sihai was silent for a long time, and then he was silent again...
Have things really come to this?
"General Fu of Han City, General Sima of An Province, Qian of Hai City..."
Wang Sihai paused, remembering that his old friend, General Qian, might have died in the Hai City explosion. His face turned gloomy. How did they end up like this?
China, China, how many people are alive in China now?
Is there 200 million?
Or one hundred million?
When the flood comes, how many people will survive?
There is not enough food anymore, and this mountainous area lacks suitable soil for planting. The seeds we carry cannot take root and sprout here. Even if there is no flood, I am afraid that in a few months, the food will be eaten up and only one in ten people will survive.
So cruel!
So cruel!
He really wanted to ask, what on earth is wrong with this world? What’s wrong?
How come these desperate situations come so suddenly, and are about to lead to the extinction of all human beings!
"General, we have lost contact with General Fu and General Sima."
"As for the other generals, they..."
I can’t go on.
Wang Sihai also knew what he meant. Everyone was having a hard time, so naturally they had a lot on their minds and wanted to survive.
Some people have stopped exchanging information with them and have begun to close themselves off.
"General Wang," said the man, a confidant and advisor, "I heard they're actively searching for the legendary ancient passage in this area. It seems that passage can lead to another world... perhaps it's a way to avoid disaster."
Wang Sihai laughed bitterly: "Another world?"
It's not like they haven't encountered those cracks in other worlds before, and they have tried to pass through the cracks to open up a second home.
But every time they explored, they suffered heavy losses.
Because those fragmented worlds are also extremely withered, dilapidated, and weird!
The vast majority of them seem to be places of origin that were abandoned after gods and demons conducted unscrupulous experiments.
There are either horrible zombies, monsters, or deep mutants who have completely lost their humanity.
Even if you are lucky enough to come across a place with slightly richer resources, you are very likely to encounter the corpse of a god buried there, or a terrifying experimental monster!
For example, they had explored a fragmented world where the monsters could not be killed no matter how hard they tried!
And every time they are killed, their minced meat will turn into something even more terrifying!
Therefore, their mining progress in the crack world was very unsuccessful. After frequent obstructions and heavy losses, they gave up the idea.
The same thing happened to several generals who shared the same idea as him. After many failures, they could only retreat to the mountains and hope that the flood would pass.
Wang Sihai was worried.
At this moment, a soldier came hurriedly to report.
"Report! We've discovered an open space crack ahead. A large number of zombies are pouring out of it and are crawling up the mountain!"
"What?!"
Wang Sihai was startled and took out a high-powered telescope to look forward. Sure enough, he saw a crack not far away, which was dark and scarlet.
The gap has opened, and countless zombies swarmed out like ants, rushing towards the camp stationed in the mountains one after another.
Wang Sihai's face suddenly changed.
It's raining cats and dogs when the roof is leaking!
The situation was already difficult enough, and then a space crack appeared, filled with zombies!
"General, those zombies are all level six and level seven zombies. Preliminary analysis shows that there are more than thirty types - ah, what is that?!"
General Wang Sihai looked over quickly and saw a giant zombie that was a hundred meters tall and different from all other zombies appeared in the crack - the Divine Corpse!
He was so frightened that his soul almost flew away!
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Organize a transfer! Find a way to contact other generals immediately and escape!"
There is no way they can survive against these zombies, only death!
"But General, where do we flee to?"
Desperate, really desperate, where can they escape to?
How do they deal with this tide of zombies and the divine corpse that leads them?
There's nowhere to escape, nowhere!
General Wang Sihai's face turned pale, and he had to make a decision.
If you fight, you will definitely lose and will just be feeding the zombies.
The only option is to escape.
"Escape to the belly of Mountain 89!"
When everyone heard this, they were stunned. That place...
It is an ancient passage, sacred and majestic, and it seems to have existed for a very long time. It is amazing and is definitely a major archaeological discovery.
It is very likely to prove that once, there were powerful gods living on this land!
Because that is not a project that humans can build at all!
Escaping there might resolve this crisis.
But they didn't know where the passage led to. It might be a glimmer of hope, or it might be a desperate situation more terrifying than facing a horde of zombies.
But do they have a choice now?
There is no choice at all.
Run away...
The news spread, and the soldiers began to move. This time, they couldn't take many things with them, so they had to keep it simple and only take the necessary supplies. Because the mountain roads were rugged and difficult to drive, some equipment, transport vehicles, and even the ship they were building...
All must be abandoned here!
The tired and hungry people heard that the zombies were coming, and their faces became even more desperate. They had finally escaped here, struggling to survive and resist the flood.
Food was scarce, and everyone was hungry. They were all skinny and barely surviving.
Now we encounter zombies again?!
This means they don’t want to live!
