Chapter 117 A Flood That Sweeps Half the Earth



"The temperature of the earth is rising."

"In just one hour, the temperature rose to 20 degrees Celsius."

"This number is still increasing, this is bad!"

At this time, in Nanming City.

Qin Chuchu's voice trembled slightly: "Through satellite detection, I saw that the glacier is melting."

"Oh no, with so much ice melting, there will definitely be countless floods."

Her words were proven true.

Before people could even process the low temperatures, the sudden heat wave forced them to take off their clothes.

At this moment, people suddenly realized something: the melting of the ice did not mean the end of the world.

The end of the world is not over yet.

At times like this, almost everyone frantically tries to find a safe place to hide.

Those who are still alive today almost all have a keen sense of danger.

They either have a keen eye and a sharp mind, or they have a strong body and good luck.

At this moment, Zhang Zihao stared blankly at the people running.

During this apocalypse, he lived a very good life, gaining 20 pounds.

If he was considered quite handsome before, now he's become a good-looking fat man.

As the ice began to melt and the temperature rose, Zhang Zihao also came out to play.

However, although he was out there, it wasn't for supplies, but to find people.

Zhang Zihao suffers from severe depression, though he is unaware of it; he simply wants to find a friend.

However, at this time, no one wanted to make friends; they were busy catching mice.

It wasn't until Zhang Zihao finally couldn't help but say that he still had some food left that he started to have more friends.

"He Ran, what's wrong?"

Zhang Zihao asked He Ran.

He Ran is a friend of Zhang Zihao. He was originally a rich second-generation, but in the apocalypse, money became useless, and he was once reduced to eating corpses.

However, it still managed to survive.

When Zhang Zihao took out the chocolate, He Ran knew that Zhang Zihao was the "landlord's son", so he made a good relationship with Zhang Zihao and became his friend.

Upon hearing Zhang Zihao's question, He Ran replied, "The temperature is rising now, and something seems off."

"We should hide in a safe place."

“Then come to my place,” Zhang Zihao blurted out.

If he had just been reborn, he definitely wouldn't invite anyone to his place.

Zhang Zihao knew that his fighting skills were not high enough to intimidate others.

So apart from Li Sisi, he never lived with anyone else.

Of course, it's also because he doesn't have many opportunities to meet other people.

But things are different now. Zhang Zihao needs a partner; he feels like he's going crazy from this apocalypse.

He is a human being; he needs social interaction.

So even if it was a man, he accepted it.

After all, Zhang Zihao knew that women were hard to find these days.

He Ran glanced at Zhang Zihao and immediately had an idea.

Zhang Zihao has a lot of snacks, which he could roughly guess. And he's afraid of being alone.

So, if I get close to Zhang Zihao and obtain this food, wouldn't that mean...?

Upon thinking of this, He Ran immediately said, "Okay."

"If another blizzard like this happens, I'll definitely die too, so I might as well stay with you. If I die, you can eat my corpse."

Zhang Zihao was somewhat moved, feeling that he had truly made the right friend.

He said confidently, "Don't worry, with me here, you won't go hungry."

Hearing his words, He Ran couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart.

Then, he followed Zhang Zihao to a relatively high floor.

To He Ran's surprise, there was plenty of food and drinks available.

Whether it's fresh meat, canned goods, purified water, or snacks like chocolate, even spicy strips, they have it all.

He Ran had a sudden thought: kill Zhang Zihao.

If you kill him, all of this will be his.

However, he suppressed the idea.

He Ran's intuition told him that Zhang Zihao had much more than just this food; this was only what he saw on the surface.

It's worth noting that a year has passed since the apocalypse, yet the items here are still neatly arranged, indicating that Zhang Zihao must have replenished them.

He Ran exclaimed with delight, "This is wonderful, Zihao. With these, we can survive!"

Zhang Zihao said happily, "Yes, it's not just about surviving, it's about living well."

Zhang Zihao's words made He Ran nod excitedly.

However, Zhang Zihao probably didn't notice that the moment He Ran lowered his head, his eyes were full of calculation.

The flood came.

Ice sheets around the world melted instantly due to the high temperatures and then converged in one place, affecting almost all low-lying cities.

The flood was so powerful that it nearly destroyed poorly maintained bridges and many buildings.

Nanming City was also affected by the floods.

Many cars and bodies on the highway were washed into the river by the floodwaters.

Many survivors were also swept away by the flood.

Furthermore, some mountains around Nanming City experienced mudslides due to melting ice, resulting in the deaths of many people who sought food in the mountains.

No one expected that the temperature, which was around zero degrees Celsius in the morning, would rise to over thirty degrees Celsius or even higher in the afternoon.

The disaster caused by this flood was actually far less than that caused by the ice storm, since they probably realized that the flood was just a temporary disaster caused by the melting ice and was not sustainable.

Many people were either praying or chatting and laughing.

I think this disaster will be over soon.

For example, Qin and Chu Chu.

She felt that after the floods passed, the Earth's climate would be fine, and natural disasters would be much less of a concern.

Although the current order has not yet been restored, it will only take ten years for society to return to the level of the early 21st century.

Her views were endorsed by Xu Wanru and Liu Shiyun.

Rather than saying they firmly believe in these things, it would be more accurate to say they are disgusted with their current situation.

These three women were originally shining stars in their respective fields before the apocalypse, but now they have become canaries in a gilded cage.

Even if a canary is well cared for, it can still become depressed when it's time to be.

Xia Muge didn't take it seriously.

He observed the flood outside and found that the impact of the flood on Nanming City was not actually that great, since Nanming City did not have any rivers with large flow rates.

Even with the flood, the roads were only slightly damaged.

But the biggest problem is that the temperature is still rising.

"Everyone, remove all the blankets and other blankets from the floor, and turn on all the air conditioners and other appliances."

At this point, the surface temperature had risen to forty degrees Celsius.
