The moment the divine power descended, Bei Ming felt a mysterious sensation. He felt that this power came from himself.
He was slightly startled, glanced quickly at Dr. Zhuang, then lowered his head to hide his guilt.
Impossible! He's just a mortal, how could he be a god? And why would he destroy the world? Dr. Zhuang lives in this world, and he loves it so much!
While he was daydreaming, Zhuang Li also sensed something and whispered, "Here it comes."
Ye Huai stood by the window, looking up at the sky which was blocked by a transparent protective cover.
At that moment, layers of dark clouds rolled in from afar, obscuring the sun and plunging the entire world into darkness. However, the base had already been prepared and had activated its lighting system at the same time, making the place as bright as day.
The darkness that has eroded the entire world cannot swallow up this small ball of light.
The nuclear fusion power plant, which originally had only one unit working, began to operate at full speed.
As the sky darkened, snowflakes began to fall, and a howling cold wind swept in, but was completely blocked by the flashing arcing protective shield. Although it was freezing outside, the temperature inside the Pure Land Base remained around 20 degrees Celsius.
As the temperature outside continued to drop, the huge amount of electricity generated by the nuclear fusion power plant running at full speed was introduced into the heating layer buried underground, raising the temperature inside the base.
No matter how cold it is outside, it is still spring inside the Pure Land all year round.
Ye Huai looked at this scene in amazement. He turned around and exclaimed in admiration, "Fuck, Zhuang Li, you're so damn smart! Luckily you didn't listen to my nonsense and only built a base to defend against zombies, otherwise we'd all be finished!"
He was truly thankful. When he had described the zombie outbreak to Zhuang Li, Zhuang Li had said his words were unscientific, saying that meteorite landings would cause explosions, temperature rises, and severe cold.
He swore that he didn't have it and told Zhuang Li to believe in himself.
If Zhuang Li really believed him, then he would be doomed! Smart people have good brains!
Zhuang Li put his hands together, forming a spire, and gently placed them against his forehead, saying, "Between trusting you and trusting science, I choose to trust science."
Ye Huai blushed immediately, but then he smiled happily.
At the same time, the survivors rushing to City B received another drone-dropped medical kit. This time, the kit was enormous, and upon opening the package, it automatically inflated into an opaque sphere.
Instructions for use were posted on the outside of the spheres, urging survivors to take shelter immediately to avoid the effects of extreme heat or cold. Inside, they contained numerous nutritional supplements; one a day was sufficient to meet their nutritional needs. Each sphere also transmitted a location signal to the base. All they had to do was remain inside, and rescue would arrive following the signal.
At first, the survivors didn't believe it. What? High temperatures, freezing cold? They had no idea what it was.
However, before they could come to a conclusion, it began to snow, and within a few minutes, the temperature dropped by more than ten degrees. They realized the severity of the situation and quickly got into the sphere.
There was also an instruction manual inside the sphere, telling them that if they had used up all the nutrients stored in the incubator, they could open a secret compartment in the base and take out the hibernation potion stored there to inject themselves.
This dormancy potion allows them to fall into a deep sleep, like hibernating animals, with their metabolism reduced to a minimum. In this state, they can remain unconscious for months without risk of death. And the army will never abandon any of them and will definitely come to their rescue.
However, there are so many people who need to be rescued that the army is overwhelmed and some people may have to wait a little longer.
After the potion wears off, the survivors will slowly wake up, quickly recover their strength, and then find a way to survive on their own.
This is the limit of what the base can do for everyone.
Seeing this, it shows that the survivors hiding inside the sphere have no complaints, but instead shed hot tears one by one.
Remember before the end of the world? Someone once said that the people of China are always well protected by the bravest among them.
At that time, many people did not feel much about this sentence. Until now, they finally understand what a great and happy country they live in.
"Just wait patiently. The country will definitely save us!" said the young man who ran out of the stadium confidently.
All of his companions are here.
As soon as everyone ran out, they encountered another drone and got the life capsule.
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire sphere shook.
He quickly looked out of the only small window, and saw a robot that looked very much like a Gundam lifting a ball and placing it on an unmanned truck. There were already seven or eight balls in the truck bed, and there must be survivors inside.
The country came to rescue us so quickly, and sent such advanced robots.
Although it was freezing outside, the young man's heart was burning hot.
His companions also crowded to the window to look out, their faces filled with surprised smiles.
As luck would have it, after their life capsule fell into the truck bed, its small window faced the window of a life capsule opposite. A chubby-faced girl was hiding inside, also curiously peeking at the outside world.
After meeting the boy's eyes, the girl smiled brightly and shouted enthusiastically, "Hello!"
People outside couldn't hear her voice, but they could understand her lip movements.
Before the apocalypse, this was such an ordinary sentence. However, after the apocalypse, the young man shed tears of happiness when he was suddenly greeted by a stranger.
"Hello!" He also shouted loudly to the other side.
The men and women crowded around him all rushed to shout, "Hello! Hello! Hahahaha..."
They didn't look like they were fleeing, but rather like they were celebrating a festival.
The robot army continuously collected these spheres and quickly transported them to the base. The lack of manpower was not a problem at all.

"I have to get back to my work. You should be ready to go out and rescue people at any time." Zhuang Li stood up and put on his white coat.
He had to improve the plant seeds brought back from the polar regions as quickly as possible to adapt them to growing in extremely hot or cold environments. It was precisely because he anticipated a global climate disaster that he went to the Arctic to get seeds, despite everyone's opposition.
If it's just a virus running rampant, there's absolutely no need to retrieve the seeds.
Ye Huai and Bei Ming quickly agreed.
At the same time, the handsome man reclining on the luxurious couch suddenly frowned, as if enduring some kind of pain. After the divine power descended, he could almost immediately see the effects of his attacks from the star chart bestowed by the Lord God.
The reason why he started the world-destroying plan at the beginning of the zombie tide was because he saw what the world would look like hundreds of years later from the star map.
There is no devastation and destruction, nor is there silence and piles of bones.
There were skyscrapers standing there, neon lights lit up, happy people were rushing on the ground, and airships were flying in the sky.
After experiencing such a catastrophe, the development of this world has not regressed, but has advanced rapidly.
The Lord of the Apocalypse needed to gain strength from destruction. Every time he unleashed a disaster, he had to draw immense divine power to carry it out. If the disaster failed to plunder enough vitality and return it to him, the divine power he had previously drawn would be dissipated in an instant.
And this will cause serious damage to his body.
When the zombie tide failed before, he had already suffered an unprecedented heavy blow, and this time, he still failed!
From the astrolabe, he saw that frozen world had been transformed into skyscrapers and bustling cities hundreds of years later. There was no famine, death, or despair, and everything was still full of vitality.
The Lord of the Apocalypse suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
But he seemed to be insensitive to the pain in his body. He raised the corners of his mouth and smiled cruelly. He once again summoned his divine power and said viciously, "If freezing doesn't work, how about roasting it with fire?"
Not long after walking out of the meeting room, Zhuang Li stopped.
He looked up at the sky, his expression surprised. Why was this Lord of the Apocalypse always so impulsive? He just caused a big drop in temperature, and then a big rise in temperature? Did he think he was playing cooking?
7480 complained harshly: "You are sick!"
Bei Ming's feeling of familiarity grew stronger. The power that had just cooled the world was now flowing into his body.
What's going on? Could it be that the power to destroy the world really comes from me?
Bei Ming was startled, and his expression became even more guilty when he looked at Dr. Zhuang.
Zhuang Li only glanced at him and said with certainty, "Have you done something wrong to me?"
"No!" Bei Ming hastily denied it, then hurriedly grabbed Dr. Zhuang's hand, stuffed it into his coat, pressed it against his muscular chest, and said honestly, "Feel my heartbeat. I really haven't done anything to let you down."
I seem to have done something wrong to this world. Bei Ming looked up at the sky, his sharp eyes trying to penetrate the clouds, searching for the person who had stolen his power.
Ye Huai asked nervously, "The temperature has risen! Will the base be okay?"
"No. I'm going to work." Zhuang Li touched Bei Ming's chest muscles, pulled him over and kissed him, then continued walking forward.
His calmness helped Ye Huai calm down quickly.
At the same time, the Lord of the Apocalypse looked at the star map expectantly, only to find that hundreds of years later, those skyscrapers and prosperous cities were still there, as if no matter whether there was a flood or a blazing fire outside, it would not affect the development of human society.
The vitality of this world is always firmly attached to its land.
"A devastating flood?" The Lord of the Apocalypse smiled, a trace of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.
After extracting divine power three times in a row, his power eventually collapsed and he became weak.
By now, he and the troublemaker were locked in a life-or-death struggle. He divided his remaining divine power into two, using half to unleash a devastating flood and the other half to sustain his own life.
Before Zhuang Li walked out of the corridor, the scorching heat outside disappeared and turned into a downpour. Part of the rain was evaporated by the protective cover, and part fell into the base, forming a trickle and flowing into the drainage pipe.
Before Ye Huai realized what was happening, Bei Ming spoke up: "This time it's a world-destroying flood."
Just now, the divine power that caused the intense heat had actually penetrated his body. He could feel that he was now far more powerful than before.
Ye Huai was almost confused by this Lord of the Apocalypse. Wasn't the opponent's speed of changing moves too fast?
"Will there be any trouble at the base?" he asked in a very calm tone.
With Zhuang Li around, he truly wasn't panicking at all. Zhuang Li could anticipate every move from the Lord of the Apocalypse and was fully prepared.
Zhuang Li paused for a moment before continuing forward. "It'll be fine. The base of this base is made of a complex skeleton material, which is less dense than air. It stores enough hydrogen to keep the entire base afloat in the event of a flood. Using the propulsion system, the base can slowly sail to higher ground and then relocate. The flood outside is none of our business, so let's just go about our business."
"Oh, then we'll go to the military camp and wait." Ye Huai responded calmly.
Bei Ming also wanted to go to the military camp, but he froze in place and dared not move, because a more powerful force suddenly surged into his body.
He could feel that it was this force that caused the downpour just now.
Damn it, who on earth is stealing his power to destroy the world? If he catches him, he will definitely skin that person alive!
Bei Ming wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
At the same time, the Lord of the Apocalypse spat out a mouthful of blood, his long, jet-black hair gradually turning white, a sign of his body's death. If he couldn't plunder the vitality of an entire world as a replenishment, he would lose his demigod power.
After losing his divine power, he would be eaten up by those ferocious taskers like hyenas.
He had to draw out the last bit of his divine strength and launch an attack that no one could stop.
At the same moment, Zhuang Li received an urgent call: "Dr. Zhuang, this is bad! Our Sky Eye, while observing outer space, just now, discovered a meteorite heading towards Earth. It's massive, and one strike could wipe out all of humanity! Dr. Zhuang, it's moving too fast. What should we do?"
"Where is the antimatter bomb I made before? You should transport it out immediately and prepare to destroy this meteorite." Zhuang Li said in a light tone.
"This bomb is too big. We don't have any rocket that can carry it into the sky." The scientist opposite said almost in despair.
"Without a rocket launch, someone can throw it into space with bare hands." Zhuang Li glanced at Bei Ming.
Bei Ming's scalp tightened, and he immediately wanted to find a durian and kneel down to admit his mistake to Dr. Zhuang. How did Dr. Zhuang know that he could throw a bomb into space with his bare hands? Would Dr. Zhuang mistakenly think that he was the villain who destroyed the world?
Just as he was panicking, 7480 said in a childish voice, "The gods have the genes of mantis shrimps, so they can definitely do it! Mantis shrimps are the strongest creatures on earth, capable of generating temperatures of 6,700 degrees with a single punch."
Bei Ming: “…”
Is the mantis shrimp so powerful?
Just as he was stunned, Zhuang Li came over, rubbed his face, and murmured, "My dear Mantis shrimp, now it's your turn to save the world."
"Why? You call me Pipi Shrimp?" Bei Ming asked pretending to be confused.
"Because I like mantis shrimp." Zhuang Li stood on tiptoe and kissed his lips with a wicked smile.
Bei Ming kissed her back fiercely and whispered, "Only you can call me by that nickname."
Zhuang Li couldn't help laughing, then pushed him forward.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Bei Ming followed the direction and angle calculated by Dr. Zhuang and threw a huge bomb into space with his bare hands.
Through the astronomical telescope, we saw the meteorite being blown up by the bomb and breaking into countless small meteors that burned to ashes in the atmosphere. Everyone's mouths opened into O shapes.
"Dr. Zhuang, what genes did you fuse with Bei Ming? Why is he so strong?" Everyone chased after Zhuang Li and asked loudly.
Bei Ming quickly hugged Dr. Zhuang in his arms and looked at him nervously.
Don't tell me, please!
Zhuang Li almost couldn't help laughing. He buried his face in Bei Ming's arms and laughed silently for a while. Then he looked at everyone and waved his hand, saying, "Sorry, this is my scientific research secret."
Bei Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhuang Li grabbed his ear and chuckled, "Pipi Xia, let's go."
Bei Ming: “…”
---
In a distant and desolate land, a magnificent palace is collapsing, but the demigod living in the palace has never appeared.
"He's dead." A tall man standing on the top of the mountain watching all this spoke coldly.
"How did he die? He is the Lord of the Apocalypse!" Another tall man looked horrified.
"Who knows. If he dies, the gods of this world will take back their power. We all have to be careful." The man shook his head, his figure gradually disappeared, and a rare worry flashed in his cold eyes.
